| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: hif_usb: don't dereference hif_dev after re-arming firmware request
ath9k_hif_request_firmware() re-arms an asynchronous firmware load via
request_firmware_nowait(), passing hif_dev as the completion context, and
then still dereferences hif_dev:
dev_info(&hif_dev->udev->dev, "ath9k_htc: Firmware %s requested\n",
hif_dev->fw_name);
The re-armed callback ath9k_hif_usb_firmware_cb() runs on the "events"
workqueue and, when the firmware is missing, walks the retry chain into
ath9k_hif_usb_firmware_fail() -> complete_all(&hif_dev->fw_done). That
releases the wait_for_completion(&hif_dev->fw_done) in a concurrent
ath9k_hif_usb_disconnect(), which then kfree()s hif_dev. The trailing
dev_info() in the frame that re-armed the request can therefore read freed
memory (hif_dev->udev, the first field of struct hif_device_usb):

The fw_done barrier only makes disconnect wait for the firmware chain to
*terminate*; it does not protect the outer ath9k_hif_request_firmware()
frame that re-armed the request and keeps touching hif_dev afterwards.
Drop the post-request dev_info(): it is the only use of hif_dev after the
async request is armed, and it is purely informational (the dev_err() on the
failure path runs only when request_firmware_nowait() did not arm a callback,
so hif_dev is still alive there).
This was first reported by syzbot as a single, non-reproduced crash that was
later auto-obsoleted, and was independently rediscovered by the reFuzz fuzzer,
which produced a C reproducer (USB-gadget connect/disconnect of an ath9k_htc
device whose firmware download fails). The vulnerable code is unchanged and
still present in v7.1-rc6, where the slab-use-after-free reproduces under KASAN
once the (sub-microsecond) race window is widened. |

wifi: ath11k: fix NULL pointer dereference in ath11k_hal_srng_access_begin
In ATH11K_QMI_EVENT_FW_READY, ATH11K_FLAG_REGISTERED is set
unconditionally even when ath11k_core_qmi_firmware_ready() fails.
This leaves the driver in an inconsistent state where
initialization is considered complete although the firmware ready
handling did not finish successfully. During the subsequent SSR,
the driver enters the restart path based on this incorrect state
and dereferences uninitialized srng members, resulting in a NULL
pointer dereference.
Call trace:

ath11k_ce_cleanup_pipes+0x17c/0x180 [ath11k]
ath11k_core_restart+0x40/0x168 [ath11k]
Fix this by:
- skipping firmware_ready if ATH11K_FLAG_REGISTERED is already set
- setting ATH11K_FLAG_REGISTERED only when firmware_ready succeeds
- setting ATH11K_FLAG_QMI_FAIL and aborting the FW_READY handling
on error

watchdog: pretimeout: Fix UAF in watchdog_unregister_governor()
When a watchdog governor is unregistered, it updates existing watchdog
devices that were using this governor by falling back to `default_gov`.
If the governor being unregistered is currently set as `default_gov`,
the `default_gov` is never cleared. This leads to 2 use-after-free
issues:
1. New watchdog devices registered after this point will inherit the
dangling `default_gov`.
2. Existing watchdog devices using the unregistered governor will have
their `wdd->gov` reassigned to the dangling `default_gov`.
Fix the UAF by clearing `default_gov` if it matches the governor being
unregistered. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rds: drop incoming messages that cross network namespace boundaries
rds_find_bound() looks up the destination socket using a global
rhashtable keyed solely on (addr, port, scope_id). Network namespaces
are not part of the key, so a sender in netns A can deliver an incoming
message (inc) to a socket that lives in a different netns B.
When this happens, inc->i_conn points to an rds_connection whose c_net
is netns A, but the receiving rs lives in netns B. Once the child
process that created netns A exits, cleanup_net() calls
rds_loop_exit_net() -> rds_loop_kill_conns() -> rds_conn_destroy(),
freeing that connection. If the survivor socket in netns B still holds
the inc, any subsequent dereference of inc->i_conn is a use-after-free.
There are two dangerous sites in rds_clear_recv_queue():
1. inc->i_conn->c_lcong (offset 88 of freed rds_connection, size 200)
read via rds_recv_rcvbuf_delta() -- confirmed by KASAN.
2. inc->i_conn->c_trans->inc_free(inc) (function pointer at offset 80)
called via rds_inc_put() when the inc refcount reaches zero -- same
race window, potential call-through-freed-object primitive.
The bug is reachable from unprivileged user namespaces
(CLONE_NEWUSER + CLONE_NEWNET), available since Linux 3.8.
Fix this by rejecting the delivery in rds_recv_incoming() when the
socket returned by rds_find_bound() belongs to a different network
namespace than the connection that carried the message. Use the
existing rds_conn_net() / sock_net() helpers and net_eq() for the
comparison. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
amt: re-read skb header pointers after every pull
Several AMT receive and transmit paths cache a pointer into the skb head
(ip_hdr(), ipv6_hdr(), eth_hdr() or the AMT message header) and then call
a helper that can reallocate that head before the cached pointer is used
again. pskb_may_pull(), ip_mc_may_pull(), ipv6_mc_may_pull(),
iptunnel_pull_header(), ip_mc_check_igmp() and ipv6_mc_check_mld() can all
free the old head and move the data, so a pointer taken before the call
dangles afterwards and the later access is a use-after-free of the freed
head.
The affected sites are:
amt_rcv() caches ip_hdr() before amt_parse_type() pulls, then reads
iph->saddr.
amt_dev_xmit() caches ip_hdr()/ipv6_hdr() before ip_mc_check_igmp()/
ipv6_mc_check_mld() and pskb_may_pull(), then reads the group address.
amt_multicast_data_handler() caches eth_hdr() before pskb_may_pull(),
then writes the L2 header.
amt_membership_query_handler() caches the AMT header, the outer and
inner eth_hdr() and ip_hdr() before iptunnel_pull_header() and several
pulls, then reads and writes them.
amt_igmpv3_report_handler() and amt_mldv2_report_handler() cache
ip_hdr()/ipv6_hdr() and the current group record and read the record
count from the report header inside the record loop, across the
*_mc_may_pull() calls.
amt_update_handler() caches ip_hdr() and the AMT membership-update
header before pskb_may_pull(), iptunnel_pull_header(),
ip_mc_check_igmp() and the report handler, then reads iph->daddr and
amtmu->nonce / amtmu->response_mac.
Fix each site by either snapshotting the scalar that is used after the
pull before the first pull runs, or re-deriving the header pointer from
the skb after the last pull that can move the head. Values that are
stable across the pull (source and group address, the response MAC and
nonce, the record count, the outer source MAC) are snapshotted; pointers
that are written through or read repeatedly are re-derived. |

bpf, sockmap: Fix cork use-after-free in tcp_bpf_sendmsg()
tcp_bpf_sendmsg() keeps msg_tx across sk_stream_wait_memory(), which
drops and reacquires the socket lock. Its error path tries to decide
whether msg_tx names the local temporary message by comparing it with
the current value of psock->cork.
This comparison is unsafe when two threads send on the same socket:
Thread A Thread B
msg_tx = psock->cork
sk_msg_alloc() fails
sk_stream_wait_memory()
releases the socket lock acquires the socket lock
completes the cork
psock->cork = NULL
frees the cork
reacquires the socket lock
msg_tx != psock->cork
sk_msg_free(msg_tx)
The stale cork is therefore mistaken for the local temporary message
and freed again. KASAN reported:

tmp directly so a changed psock->cork cannot turn a shared message into
an apparent local one. |

Bluetooth: hci_sync: Protect UUID list traversal
The hci_sync conversion moved class-of-device and EIR generation from an
HCI request built under hdev->lock to asynchronous command sync work.
The worker holds hdev->req_lock, but that lock does not serialize access
to hdev->uuids against add_uuid() and remove_uuid(), which update the
list under hdev->lock.
The following interleaving can therefore occur:
CPU0 (command sync work) CPU1 (management socket)
fetch uuid from the list
list_del(&uuid->list)
kfree(uuid)
read uuid->size
KASAN reports the resulting use-after-free:

Hold hdev->lock while generating and committing the class-of-device and
EIR snapshots. Release it before sending an HCI command, so controller
waits do not happen under the device lock. This protects all UUID list
walks in these paths and restores the serialization lost in the command
sync conversion. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
comedi: comedi_parport: deal with premature interrupt
Syzbot reported a general protection fault in
`comedi_get_is_subdevice_running()`, which was called from the interrupt
handler `parport_interrupt()` in the "comedi_parport" driver, but it
does not currently have a C reproducer for the problem. It's
probably due to a premature interrupt for one of two reasons:
1. The driver sets up the interrupt handler before the comedi subdevices
used by the interrupt handler have been allocated, but does not
disable the interrupt in the parallel port's CTRL register first.
2. The driver uses a user-supplied I/O port base address which Syzbot
would have supplied, but it might not be backed by real parallel port
hardware.
Change the initialization order in the driver's comedi "attach" handler
(`parport_attach()`) so that the hardware registers are initialized
before the interrupt handler is requested. This should prevent
premature interrupts occurring for real hardware.
Also add a test to the interrupt handler to ensure the comedi device is
fully attached and return early if it isn't. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: refresh auth->authorizer_buf{,_len} after authorizer update
ceph_x_create_authorizer() caches au->buf->vec.iov_base and
au->buf->vec.iov_len in struct ceph_auth_handshake. These
cached values are then used by the messenger connect code when
sending the authorizer.
ceph_x_update_authorizer() can rebuild the authorizer when a newer
service ticket is available. If the rebuilt authorizer no longer
fits in the existing buffer, ceph_x_build_authorizer() drops its
reference to au->buf and allocates a new one. If this is the final
reference, ceph_buffer_put() frees the old ceph_buffer and its
vec.iov_base, but auth->authorizer_buf still points at that freed
memory.
A subsequent msgr1 reconnect can therefore queue the stale pointer
and trigger a KASAN slab-use-after-free in _copy_from_iter() while
tcp_sendmsg() copies the authorizer.
Refresh auth->authorizer_buf and auth->authorizer_buf_len after a
successful authorizer rebuild so the messenger sends the current
buffer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: remove debugfs files before client teardown
ceph_destroy_client() tears down the monitor client before removing
the per-client debugfs files. A concurrent read of the monmap debugfs
file can enter monmap_show() after ceph_monc_stop() has freed
monc->monmap, triggering a use-after-free.
Remove the debugfs files before stopping the OSD and monitor clients.
debugfs_remove() drains active handlers and prevents new accesses, so
the debugfs callbacks can no longer race the rest of client teardown. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fscrypt: Avoid dynamic allocation in fscrypt_get_devices()
When a blk_crypto_key starts being used or is evicted, fs/crypto/ calls
fscrypt_get_devices() to get the filesystem's list of block devices,
then iterates over them and calls blk_crypto_config_supported(),
blk_crypto_start_using_key(), or blk_crypto_evict_key() on each one.
Currently, the block device pointers are placed in a dynamically
allocated array. This dynamic allocation is problematic because:
- It can fail, especially at the fscrypt_destroy_inline_crypt_key() call
site when it's invoked for inode eviction under direct reclaim.
- fscrypt_destroy_inline_crypt_key() doesn't handle the failure. It
just zeroizes and frees the blk_crypto_key without calling
blk_crypto_evict_key(). That causes a use-after-free.
For now, let's fix this in the straightforward and easily-backportable
way by switching to an on-stack array. Currently the fscrypt
multi-device functionality is used only by f2fs, which has a hardcoded
limit of 8 block devices. An on-stack array works fine for that.
(Of course, this solution won't scale up to large number of block
devices. For that we'd need a different solution, like moving the block
device iteration into the filesystem. Or in the case of btrfs, which
will only support blk-crypto-fallback, we should make it just call
blk-crypto-fallback directly, so the block devices won't be needed.) |

phonet: pep: fix use-after-free in pep_get_sb()
pep_get_sb() doesn't consider that pskb_may_pull() might have relocated
the skb data, and continue to access the older pointer, causing UAF.
Reproduced under KASAN:

Refetch the header with skb_header_pointer() after pskb_may_pull(), so
the possibly stale pointer is no longer dereferenced. There are better
ways to solve this, but, this is the less instrusive one. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/iucv: fix use-after-free of a severed iucv_path
af_iucv queues not-yet-received message notifications on iucv->message_q,
each holding a raw pointer to the connection's iucv_path. When the peer
severs the connection, iucv_sever_path() frees that path with
iucv_path_free() but leaves the notifications queued. A later recvmsg()
drains message_q via iucv_process_message_q() and hands the stale path to
message_receive() -- a use-after-free of the freed iucv_path.
Drop the queued notifications when the path is severed; once the path is
gone they can no longer be received. This also frees the notifications
leaked when a socket is closed with messages still queued. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/x25: fix use-after-free in x25_kill_by_neigh()
x25_kill_by_neigh() walks the global X.25 socket list looking for sockets
attached to a terminating neighbour. x25_list_lock protects list membership
while the lookup is in progress, but it does not pin a socket's lifetime
after the lock is dropped.
The function currently drops x25_list_lock before calling lock_sock(s). A
concurrent close can run x25_release(), remove the same socket from
x25_list, and drop the last socket reference in that window. The neighbour
teardown path can then lock or inspect a freed struct sock/struct x25_sock.
Take sock_hold(s) while x25_list_lock still proves that the list entry is
live, then drop the temporary reference after the socket has been locked,
rechecked, and released. Recheck x25_sk(s)->neighbour after lock_sock(),
because another path may have disconnected the socket before this path
acquired the socket lock. Restart the list walk after each disconnect
because the list lock was dropped and the previous iterator state may no
longer be valid.
A QEMU/KASAN run against origin/master reproduced a slab-use-after-free in
x25_kill_by_neigh(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ila: reload IPv6 header after pskb_may_pull in checksum adjust
ila_csum_adjust_transport() caches ip6h = ipv6_hdr(skb) before calling
pskb_may_pull(). On a non-linear skb whose transport header sits in a page
fragment, pskb_may_pull() can call __pskb_pull_tail() / pskb_expand_head()
and free the old skb head, leaving ip6h dangling; the following
get_csum_diff(ip6h, p) then reads freed memory. ila_update_ipv6_locator()
uses ip6h (and the iaddr derived from it) again after the csum-adjust
call and additionally writes the new locator through that pointer.
Impact: a remote IPv6 packet routed through a configured ILA
csum-adjust-transport route or receive-side mapping triggers a
slab-use-after-free in ila_update_ipv6_locator() (KASAN). The route or
mapping requires CAP_NET_ADMIN to configure, but trigger packets are
unauthenticated once it exists.
Reload ip6h after each pskb_may_pull() in ila_csum_adjust_transport()
before the csum-diff read. In ila_update_ipv6_locator() only the
ILA_CSUM_ADJUST_TRANSPORT case pulls the skb, so reload ip6h and iaddr in
that case alone before the destination-address write; the neutral-map
modes never pull and keep their cached pointers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pppoe: reload header pointer after dev_hard_header()
pppoe_sendmsg() saves a pointer to the PPPoE header before calling
dev_hard_header(). Device header callbacks are allowed to reallocate the
skb head, invalidating pointers into it.
This can happen when a send is blocked in copy_from_user() while the first
non-Ethernet port is added to an empty team device. The team's delegated
GRE header callback then expands the skb head. PPPoE subsequently writes
six bytes through the stale pointer into the freed head.
Reload the PPPoE header through the skb's network-header offset after
device header creation. pskb_expand_head() updates that offset when it
relocates the head. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: clear sock->sk on the failed-insert path in tipc_sk_create()
When tipc_sk_create() fails to insert the new socket (tipc_sk_insert()
returns non-zero), its error path frees the sk with sk_free() but leaves
sock->sk pointing at the freed object:
if (tipc_sk_insert(tsk)) {
sk_free(sk);
pr_warn("Socket create failed; port number exhausted\n");
return -EINVAL;
}
This is harmless for plain socket(): the syscall layer clears sock->ops
before releasing, so tipc_release() is never called. It is not harmless
on the accept() path. tipc_accept() creates the pre-allocated child
socket with tipc_sk_create(net, new_sock, 0, kern); on failure it leaves
new_sock->sk dangling and new_sock->ops non-NULL, and do_accept() then
fput()s the new file, so __sock_release() -> tipc_release() runs
lock_sock(new_sock->sk) on the freed sk -- a use-after-free write of the
sk_lock spinlock.
tipc_release() already guards this exact "failed accept() releases a
pre-allocated child" case with "if (sk == NULL) return 0;", but the
guard is bypassed because tipc_sk_create() left sock->sk non-NULL
(dangling) rather than NULL.
Clear sock->sk on the failed-insert path so the existing tipc_release()
NULL check fires and the use-after-free is avoided.
The tipc_sk_insert() failure is reached when the per-netns socket
rhashtable hits its max_size (tsk_rht_params.max_size = 1048576, ~2M
elements) -- i.e. once a netns holds ~2M TIPC sockets every insert
returns -E2BIG.
