| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mvneta: re-enable percpu interrupt on resume
On Marvell MPIC platforms (Armada 370/XP/38x), mvneta uses a percpu
IRQ disable/enable scheme for NAPI: the ISR (mvneta_percpu_isr) calls
disable_percpu_irq() to mask the MPIC per-CPU interrupt and schedules
NAPI poll, which calls enable_percpu_irq() on completion to unmask.
If suspend occurs while NAPI poll is pending (between
disable_percpu_irq in the ISR and enable_percpu_irq in poll
completion), the interrupt is never re-enabled:
1. mvneta_percpu_isr: disable_percpu_irq() + napi_schedule()
=> MPIC masked, percpu_enabled cpumask bit cleared
2. NAPI poll does not complete before suspend proceeds
(on PREEMPT_RT this is highly likely since softirqs run in
ksoftirqd which gets frozen; on non-RT it can happen when
softirq processing is deferred to ksoftirqd)
3. mvneta_stop_dev => napi_disable(): cancels the pending poll
without executing the completion path
4. suspend_device_irqs => IRQCHIP_MASK_ON_SUSPEND: masks MPIC
(already masked, but records IRQS_SUSPENDED)
5. Resume: mpic_resume checks irq_percpu_is_enabled() => false
(bit was cleared in step 1) => skips unmask
6. mvneta_start_dev only restores device-level INTR_NEW_MASK,
does not touch the MPIC per-CPU mask
Result: MPIC per-CPU interrupt stays masked permanently. The NIC
generates interrupts (INTR_NEW_CAUSE != 0) but the CPU never
receives them, causing complete loss of network connectivity.
Fix by calling on_each_cpu(mvneta_percpu_enable) in the resume path
to unconditionally unmask the MPIC per-CPU interrupt regardless of
pre-suspend state. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
octeontx2-af: Validate NIX maximum LFs correctly
NIX maximum number of LFs can be set via devlink command
but that can be done before assigning any LFs to a PF/VF.
The condition used to check whether any LFs are assigned is
incorrect. This patch fixes that condition. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: dsa: mxl862xx: fix use-after-free of DSA ports in crc_err_work
Upon an MDIO CRC error mxl862xx_crc_err_work_fn() walks the DSA ports
and closes the CPU port conduits:
dsa_switch_for_each_cpu_port(dp, priv->ds)
dev_close(dp->conduit);
mxl862xx_remove() unregisters the switch before cancelling this work:
set_bit(MXL862XX_FLAG_WORK_STOPPED, &priv->flags);
cancel_delayed_work_sync(&priv->stats_work);
dsa_unregister_switch(ds);
mxl862xx_host_shutdown(priv);
dsa_unregister_switch() frees the dsa_port objects. If a CRC error
schedules the work during teardown it can run after the ports have been
freed and dereference freed memory.
Guard the port walk with MXL862XX_FLAG_WORK_STOPPED, which is already set
before dsa_unregister_switch(). DSA tears the ports down under
rtnl_lock(), so checking the flag under rtnl_lock() means the work either
runs before teardown and sees valid ports, or runs afterwards, observes
the flag and skips the walk. This mirrors the host_flood_work handler,
which skips torn-down ports under rtnl_lock(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/mm: Fix handling of _PAGE_UNUSED pte bit
The _PAGE_UNUSED softbit should not really be lying around. Its sole
purpose is to signal to try_to_unmap_one() and try_to_migrate_one()
that the page can be discarded instead of being moved / swapped.
KVM has no way to know why a page is being unmapped, so it sets the bit
on userspace ptes corresponding to unused guest pages every time they
get unmapped. KVM has no reasonable way to clear the bit once the page
is in use again.
While set_ptes() checks and clears the bit, other paths that set new
ptes did not. This led to used pages being thrown out as if they were
unused, causing guest corruption.
Fix the issue by clearing the _PAGE_UNUSED bit for present ptes in
set_pte(), i.e. whenever a present pte is getting set. The check in
set_ptes() is then redundant and can be removed.
Also fix gmap_helper_try_set_pte_unused() to only set the bit if the
pte is present; the _PAGE_UNUSED bit is only defined for present ptes
and thus should not be set for non-present ptes. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: fix err_chunk memory leaks in INIT handling
When sctp_verify_init() encounters unrecognized parameters, it allocates an
err_chunk to report them. However, this chunk is leaked in several code
paths:
1. In sctp_sf_do_5_1B_init(), if security_sctp_assoc_request() fails after
sctp_verify_init() has populated err_chunk, the function returns
immediately without freeing it.
2. In sctp_sf_do_unexpected_init(), the same leak occurs on the
security_sctp_assoc_request() failure path.
3. In sctp_sf_do_unexpected_init(), on the success path after copying
unrecognized parameters to the INIT-ACK, the function returns without
freeing err_chunk, unlike sctp_sf_do_5_1B_init() which properly frees
it.
Fix all three leaks by adding sctp_chunk_free(err_chunk) calls before
returning in the error paths and on the success path in
sctp_sf_do_unexpected_init(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_compat: ebtables emulation must reject non-bridge targets
xtables targets return netfilter verdicts: NF_ACCEPT, NF_DROP, and so
on. ebtables targets return incompatible verdicts: EBT_ACCEPT,
EBT_DROP, ... We cannot allow fallback to NFPROTO_UNSPEC.
ebtables doesn't permit this since
11ff7288beb2 ("netfilter: ebtables: reject non-bridge targets")
but that commit missed the nft_compat layer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: flowtable: Validate iph->ihl in nf_flow_ip4_tunnel_proto()
Add sanity check for iph->ihl field in nf_flow_ip4_tunnel_proto() before
using it to compute the header size, avoiding out-of-bounds access with
malformed IP headers.
While at it, use iph->protocol instead of the hardcoded IPPROTO_IPIP
constant when setting ctx->tun.proto and reference ctx->tun.hdr_size
when updating ctx->offset. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conncount: prevent connlimit drops for early confirmed ct
Commit 69894e5b4c5e ("netfilter: nft_connlimit: update the count if add
was skipped") introduced a regression where packets for valid
connections are dropped when using connlimit for soft-limiting
scenarios.
The issue occurs when a new connection reuses a socket currently in
the TIME_WAIT state. In this scenario, the connection tracking entry
is evaluated as already confirmed. Previously, __nf_conncount_add()
assumed that if a connection was confirmed and did not originate from
the loopback interface, it should skip the addition and return -EEXIST.
Skipping the addition triggers a garbage collection run that cleans up
the TIME_WAIT connection. Consequently, the active connection count
drops to 0, which xt_connlimit mishandles, leading to the false rejection
of the perfectly valid new connection.
Fix this by replacing the interface check with protocol-agnostic state
checks. We now skip the tree insertion and preserve the lockless garbage
collection optimization only if the connection is IPS_ASSURED. This
allows early-confirmed setup packets (such as reused TIME_WAIT sockets
or locally generated SYN-ACKs) to be properly evaluated and counted
without falsely dropping. The goto check_connections path is maintained
to ensure these setup packets are deduplicated correctly.
This has been tested with slowhttptest and HTTP server configured
locally to ensure we are not breaking soft-limiting scenarios for local
or external connections. In addition, it was tested with a OVS zone
limit too. |

netfilter: nf_nat: avoid invalid nat_net pointer use on failed nf_nat_init()
We ran into below KASAN splat, which is mostly uninteresting, beside
for having nf_nat_register_fn() in the call chain as a cause for the

| A vulnerability was determined in TRENDnet TEW-WLC100 2.05b02. This affects an unknown function of the file /etc/racoon.conf of the component IKE Phase 1 Aggressive Mode. This manipulation of the argument exchange_mode causes missing encryption of sensitive data. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The complexity of an attack is rather high. The exploitability is reported as difficult. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure. |

Bluetooth: ISO: fix malformed ISO_END/CONT handling
Core specification (Part C vol 4 sec 5.4.5) does not exclude empty
ISO_CONT, ISO_END packets. We currently reject them if they are last.
If controller sends malformed sequence
ISO_START -> rx_len = 4, ISO_CONT skb->len 4, ISO_START
that ends payload in ISO_CONT, we leak conn->rx_skb. If controller sends
too long ISO_END, we panic on skb_put. If controller sends too short
ISO_END we accept it.
Fix by marking unfinished ISO_START via conn->rx_skb != NULL. Check
skb->len properly before skb_put. Combine the ISO_CONT/END code paths
as they require the same initial checks. Reject too short ISO_END
packets. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: 6lowpan: hold L2CAP conn across debugfs control
get_l2cap_conn() looks up an LE hci_conn under hdev protection, but
then drops that protection before reading hcon->l2cap_data and before
lowpan_control_write() later dereferences conn->hcon. A disconnect or
device close can tear down the same L2CAP connection in that window.
The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order
within that path:
6LoWPAN control write: HCI disconnect/device close:
1. get_l2cap_conn() finds hcon 1. hci_disconn_cfm() dispatches
and hcon->l2cap_data. the L2CAP disconnect callback.
2. get_l2cap_conn() drops hdev 2. l2cap_conn_del() clears
protection and returns conn. hcon->l2cap_data and drops the
L2CAP connection reference.
3. lowpan_control_write() reads 3. hci_conn_del() removes and drops
conn->hcon. the HCI connection.
Take a reference to the L2CAP connection with
l2cap_conn_hold_unless_zero() while hdev is still locked, and drop that
reference after the debugfs command's last use of conn. This mirrors the
existing L2CAP ACL receive-side handoff and keeps the connection
dereferenceable after leaving hdev protection. Export the existing helper
so the bluetooth_6lowpan module can use the same lifetime primitive.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: 6lowpan: avoid untracked enable work
lowpan_enable_set() allocates a temporary work item and schedules
do_enable_set() on system_wq, then returns to debugfs. The debugfs active
operation has ended at that point, but the worker still executes module
text and manipulates enable_6lowpan and listen_chan.
bt_6lowpan_exit() removes the debugfs files and immediately closes and
puts listen_chan. It has no pointer to the queued work item, so it cannot
cancel or flush it before tearing down the state that the worker uses.
The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order
within that path:
debugfs enable write module exit
1. lowpan_enable_set() allocates 1. bt_6lowpan_exit() removes
set_enable work the debugfs file
2. schedule_work() queues 2. bt_6lowpan_exit() closes
do_enable_set() and puts listen_chan
3. the write operation returns 3. module teardown can continue
4. do_enable_set() later runs
against stale state
Run the enable state transition synchronously in lowpan_enable_set()
instead. The simple debugfs setter can sleep, and this file already handles
the 6LoWPAN control write synchronously under the same set_lock. Once the
setter returns, debugfs removal covers the whole operation and exit can no
longer race with an untracked work item.

net/sched: act_pedit: fix TOCTOU heap OOB write in tc offload
There is a TOCTOU race condition in flower lockless approach between sizing
a flow_rule buffer and filling it.
zdi-disclosures@trendmicro.com reports:
The cls_flower classifier operates with TCF_PROTO_OPS_DOIT_UNLOCKED
(fl_change runs without RTNL), while RTM_NEWACTION holds RTNL, so the
independent locking domains make the race reachable in practice. KASAN
confirms:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in tcf_pedit_offload_act_setup+0x81b/0x930
Write of size 4 at addr ffff888001f27520 by task poc-toctou/312
The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of
allocated 288-byte region [ffff888001f27400, ffff888001f27520)
(cache kmalloc-512)
Note: The result is a heap OOB write attacker-controlled content into the
adjacent slab object (requires CAP_NET_ADMIN).
The fix introduces reading tcfp_nkeys under act->tcfa_lock in all places
using a new tcf_pedit_nkeys_locked() which replaces the old tcf_pedit_nkeys().
Additionally we close the remaining TOCTOU window between the sizing read and
the fill reads by more careful accounting.
Rather than silently truncating the key count, which leads to incorrect
action semantics offloaded to hardware and secondary OOB writes if
the remaining capacity is zero or consumed by prior actions, we enforce
remaining capacity checks and return -ENOSPC if the required space exceeds
the remaining capacity. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
qede: fix off-by-one in BD ring consumption on build_skb failure
qede_rx_build_skb() and qede_tpa_rx_build_skb() do not check for a
NULL return from qede_build_skb(). When it returns NULL under memory
pressure, the functions still consume a BD from the ring before
returning NULL. The callers then recycle additional BDs, resulting in
one extra BD being consumed (off-by-one). This desynchronizes the BD
ring, which can corrupt DMA page reference counts and lead to SLUB
freelist corruption.
Commit 4e910dbe3650 ("qede: confirm skb is allocated before using")
added a NULL check inside qede_build_skb() to prevent a NULL pointer
dereference, but did not address the missing NULL checks in the
callers, making this off-by-one reachable.
Fix this by adding NULL checks for the return value of
qede_build_skb() in both qede_rx_build_skb() and
qede_tpa_rx_build_skb(), returning NULL immediately before any BD ring
manipulation. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: xt_connmark: reject invalid shift parameters
Revision 2 of the CONNMARK target accepts user-controlled shift
parameters and applies them to 32-bit mark values in
connmark_tg_shift().
A shift_bits value of 32 or more triggers an undefined-shift bug when
the rule is evaluated. Invalid shift_dir values are also accepted and
silently fall back to the left-shift path.
Reject invalid revision-2 shift parameters in connmark_tg_check() so
malformed rules fail at installation time, before they can reach the
packet path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gue: validate REMCSUM private option length
GUE private flags can indicate that remote checksum offload metadata is
present. The private flags field itself is accounted for by
guehdr_flags_len(), but guehdr_priv_flags_len() currently returns 0 even
when GUE_PFLAG_REMCSUM is set.
This lets a packet with only the private flags field pass
validate_gue_flags(), after which gue_remcsum() and gue_gro_remcsum()
read the missing REMCSUM start/offset fields from the following bytes.
Account for GUE_PLEN_REMCSUM when GUE_PFLAG_REMCSUM is present so that
malformed packets are rejected during option validation. |

HID: bpf: Fix hid_bpf_get_data() range check
hid_bpf_get_data() returns a pointer into the HID-BPF context data when
the caller-provided offset and size fit inside ctx->allocated_size.
The current check adds rdwr_buf_size and offset before comparing the
result against ctx->allocated_size. Since both values are unsigned, a
very large size can wrap the sum below ctx->allocated_size and make the
helper return a pointer even though the requested range is not contained
in the backing buffer.
Use check_add_overflow() to reject wrapped range ends before comparing
the requested range end against ctx->allocated_size. |

ntfs: avoid stale runlist element dereference in MFT writeback
ntfs_write_mft_block() maps each $MFT record through the $MFT data
runlist. For sub-folio clusters it looks up a struct runlist_element under
ni->runlist.lock, drops the lock, and later uses rl->length and rl->vcn
when choosing folio_sz.
That pointer is only borrowed from ni->runlist.rl. Concurrent $MFT
allocation extension can merge a replacement runlist under the same lock,
and ntfs_rl_realloc() can free the old backing array. If that happens
between the lookup and the later folio_sz decision, writeback can
dereference freed runlist storage.
The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order
within that path:
MFT writeback path: $MFT allocation extension:
1. Look up rl under 1. Extend the $MFT data allocation.
ni->runlist.lock. 2. Publish a replacement runlist.
2. Drop ni->runlist.lock. 3. Free the old runlist array.
3. Read rl->length and rl->vcn
to choose folio_sz.
Compute the remaining run length while ni->runlist.lock is still held, and
use that scalar after unlock. This preserves the existing folio sizing
decision without carrying a borrowed runlist_element across the lock
boundary.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: efifb: fix memory leak in efifb_probe()
Since commit 73ce73c30ba9 ("fbdev: Transfer video= option strings to
caller; clarify ownership") the string returned from fb_get_options()
is expected to be freed by the caller, but the string is not freed in
efifb_probe(). Fix that by freeing the option string after setup. |
