| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: mld: stop TX during firmware restart
When iwlwifi firmware crashes (e.g., NMI_INTERRUPT_UNKNOWN on Intel
BE201/Wi-Fi 7), iwl_mld_nic_error() sets mld->fw_status.in_hw_restart
to true. However, iwl_mld_tx_from_txq() does not check this flag before
dequeuing frames from mac80211 and pushing them to the transport layer.
Since the firmware is dead, iwl_trans_tx() returns -EIO for each frame,
which then gets freed immediately. Under high-throughput conditions
(e.g., Tailscale UDP traffic or active SSH sessions), this creates a
tight dequeue-send-fail-free loop that wastes CPU cycles and generates
rapid skb allocation churn, leading to memory pressure from slab
fragmentation.
The RX path already has this guard (iwl_mld_rx_mpdu checks
in_hw_restart at rx.c:1906), and so does the TXQ allocation worker
(iwl_mld_add_txqs_wk at tx.c:156). Add the same guard to
iwl_mld_tx_from_txq() to stop all TX during firmware restart.
Frames left in mac80211's TXQs are naturally drained after restart
completes, when queue reallocation triggers iwl_mld_tx_from_txq()
via iwl_mld_add_txq_list(), or when new upper-layer traffic invokes
wake_tx_queue.
Tested on ASUS Zenbook 14 UX3405CA with Intel BE201 (Wi-Fi 7) on
kernel 6.19.5 where the firmware crashes approximately every 10-15
minutes under Tailscale traffic. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: SVM: Disable AVIC IPI virtualization on Hygon Family 18h (erratum #1235)
Hygon Family 18h CPUs are derived from AMD Family 17h (Zen1) silicon and
share the same erratum #1235: hardware may read a stale IsRunning=1 bit
during ICR write emulation and silently fail to generate an
AVIC_IPI_FAILURE_TARGET_NOT_RUNNING VM-Exit on the sending vCPU.
The absence of the VM-Exit causes KVM to miss the required wakeup of
blocking target vCPUs, leading to hung vCPUs and unbounded delays in
guest execution.
Extend the existing AMD Family 17h erratum #1235 workaround to also cover
Hygon Family 18h. With IPI virtualization disabled, KVM never sets
IsRunning=1 in the Physical ID table, so every non-self IPI generates a
VM-Exit and is correctly emulated. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfs: Fix write streaming disablement if fd open O_RDWR
In netfs_perform_write(), "write streaming" (the caching of dirty data in
dirty but !uptodate folios) is performed to avoid the need to read data
that is just going to get immediately overwritten. However, this is/will
be disabled in three circumstances: if the fd is open O_RDWR, if fscache is
in use (as we need to round out the blocks for DIO) or if content
encryption is enabled (again for rounding out purposes).
The idea behind disabling it if the fd is open O_RDWR is that we'd need to
flush the write-streaming page before we could read the data, particularly
through mmap. But netfs now fills in the gaps if ->read_folio() is called
on the page, so that is unnecessary. Further, this doesn't actually work
if a separate fd is open for reading.
Fix this by removing the check for O_RDWR, thereby allowing streaming
writes even when we might read.
This caused a number of problems with the generic/522 xfstest, but those
are now fixed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm: Fix iommu_map_sgtable() return value check and avoid WARN
Commit "iommu: return full error code from iommu_map_sg[_atomic]()"
changed iommu_map_sgtable() to return an ssize_t and negative values
in error cases, rather than a size_t and a zero.
Store the return value in the appropriate type and in case of error,
return it rather than WARNing.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu: Handle unmap error when iommu_debug is enabled
Sashiko noticed a latent bug where the map error flow called iommu_unmap()
which calls iommu_debug_unmap_begin()/iommu_debug_unmap_end() however
since this is an error path the map flow never actually established the
original iommu_debug_map() it will malfunction.
Lift the unmap error handling into iommu_map_nosync() and reorder it so
the trace_map()/iommu_debug_map() records the partial mapping and then
immediately unmaps it. This avoid creating the unbalanced tracking and
provides saner tracing instead of a unmap unmatched to any map. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommupt: Check for missing PAGE_SIZE in the pgsize_bitmap
Sashiko pointed out that the driver could drop PAGE_SIZE from the
pgsize_bitmap. That is technically allowed but nothing does it, and
such an iommu_domain would not be used with the DMA API today.
Still, it is against the design and it is trivial to fix up. Lift
the PT_WARN_ON to the if branch and just skip the fast path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pds_core: fix error handling in pdsc_devcmd_wait
Fix two cases where pdsc_devcmd_wait() returns stale success from
the completion register instead of an error:
1. FW crash: If firmware stops running, the wait loop breaks early with
running=false. The condition "if ((!done || timeout) && running)" is
false, so error handling is bypassed and stale status is returned.
Check !running first and return -ENXIO.
2. Timeout: If a command times out, err is set to -ETIMEDOUT but then
overwritten by pdsc_err_to_errno(status) which reads stale status.
Return -ETIMEDOUT immediately after cleaning up.
Both errors now propagate to pdsc_devcmd_locked() which queues
health_work for recovery. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix null pointer dereference in compare_guid_key()
session_fd_check() walks the per-inode m_op_list during durable-handle
session teardown and sets op->conn = NULL for every opinfo whose conn
matched the closing session's connection. The matching opinfo, however,
stays linked in its per-ClientGuid lease_table_list entry's lb->lease_list
because destroy_lease_table() only runs on full TCP-connection teardown,
not on SESSION_LOGOFF.
If the same TCP connection then negotiates a fresh session with the
same ClientGuid (ClientGuid is bound to NEGOTIATE, not the session, and
is unchanged across LOGOFF + SETUP) and issues a SMB2 CREATE with a
lease context on a different inode, find_same_lease_key() walks
lb->lease_list, reaches the stale opinfo, and calls compare_guid_key(),
which unconditionally dereferences opinfo->conn->ClientGUID. The conn
pointer is NULL and the kernel panics.
Reproducer requires only a successful SMB2 SESSION_SETUP and a share
configured with 'durable handles = yes'. KASAN report on mainline

owner of an active lease, so returning 0 is the correct match result. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix null pointer dereference in proc_show_files()
When a SMB2 client opens a file with a durable v2 handle and then issues
SMB2 SESSION_LOGOFF, session_fd_check() clears fp->tcon = NULL on the
reconnectable file pointer but leaves the fp registered in global_ft.idr
until the durable scavenger fires (up to fp->durable_timeout seconds
later).
During that window any read of /proc/fs/ksmbd/files (mode 0400) panics
the kernel because proc_show_files() walks global_ft.idr and
unconditionally dereferences fp->tcon->id with no NULL guard.

smb: client: require net admin for CIFS SWN netlink
CIFS_GENL_CMD_SWN_NOTIFY is the userspace witness-notify command. The
intended sender is the cifs.witness helper, but the generic-netlink
operation currently has no capability flag, so any local process can send
RESOURCE_CHANGE or CLIENT_MOVE notifications to the in-kernel witness
handler.
The same family exposes CIFS_GENL_MCGRP_SWN without multicast-group
capability flags. Register messages sent to that group include the witness
registration id and, for NTLM-authenticated mounts, the username, domain,
and password attributes copied from the CIFS session. An unprivileged
local process should not be able to join that group and receive those
messages.
Require CAP_NET_ADMIN for incoming SWN_NOTIFY commands with
GENL_ADMIN_PERM, and require CAP_NET_ADMIN over the network namespace for
joining the SWN multicast group with GENL_MCAST_CAP_NET_ADMIN. The
cifs.witness service runs with the privileges needed for both operations. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcm: Don't setup bogus iov_iter for silencing
At transition to the iov_iter for PCM data transfer, we blindly
applied the iov_iter setup also for silencing (i.e. data = NULL), and
it leads to a calculation of bogus iov_iter. Fortunately this didn't
cause troubles on most of architectures but it goes wrong on RISC-V
now, causing a NULL dereference.
Handle the NULL data case to treat the silencing in interleaved_copy()
for addressing the bug above. noninterleaved_copy() has already the
NULL data handling, so it doesn't need changes. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: asihpi: Fix potential OOB array access at reading cache
find_control() to retrieve a cached info accesses the array with the
given index blindly, which may lead to an OOB array access.
Add a sanity check for avoiding it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: MGMT: validate Add Extended Advertising Data length
MGMT_OP_ADD_EXT_ADV_DATA is registered as a variable-length command,
with MGMT_ADD_EXT_ADV_DATA_SIZE as the fixed header size. The handler
then uses cp->adv_data_len and cp->scan_rsp_len to validate and copy
cp->data, but it never checks that those bytes are part of the mgmt
command payload.
A short command can therefore make add_ext_adv_data() pass an
out-of-bounds pointer into tlv_data_is_valid(). If the bytes beyond
the command buffer are addressable, they can also be copied into the
advertising instance as scan response data, where the caller can read
them back via MGMT_OP_GET_ADV_INSTANCE. The trigger requires
CAP_NET_ADMIN in the initial user namespace; KASAN reports an 8-byte
slab-out-of-bounds read.
Reject commands whose length does not match the fixed header plus both
advertising data lengths before parsing cp->data. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: devmem: reject dma-buf bind with non-page-aligned size or SG length
net_devmem_bind_dmabuf() trusts dmabuf->size and sg_dma_len() to be
PAGE_SIZE multiples without checking:
- tx_vec is sized dmabuf->size / PAGE_SIZE, and
net_devmem_get_niov_at() only bounds-checks virt_addr < dmabuf->size
before indexing tx_vec[virt_addr / PAGE_SIZE]. With size =
N*PAGE_SIZE + r (1 <= r < PAGE_SIZE), sendmsg() at iov_base =
N*PAGE_SIZE passes the bound check and reads tx_vec[N] -- one past.
- owner->area.num_niovs = len / PAGE_SIZE while gen_pool_add_owner()
covers the full byte len, so a non-page-multiple non-final sg
desyncs num_niovs from the gen_pool region for every later sg, on
both RX and TX.
dma-buf does not require page-aligned sizes, so the bind path has to
enforce what its own indexing assumes. Reject both with -EINVAL.
The size check is TX-only (only tx_vec is sized off dmabuf->size); the
SG-length check covers both directions. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: hsr: defer node table free until after RCU readers
HSR node-list and node-status generic-netlink operations run under
rcu_read_lock(). They walk hsr->node_db through hsr_get_next_node() and
hsr_get_node_data(), but RTM_DELLINK teardown removes the same node table
with plain list_del() and frees each node immediately.
That lets a generic-netlink reader hold a struct hsr_node pointer across
hsr_dellink(). In a KASAN build, widening the reader window after
hsr_get_next_node() obtains the node reproduces a slab-use-after-free
when the reader copies node->macaddress_A; the freeing stack is
hsr_del_nodes() from hsr_dellink().
Use list_del_rcu() and defer the free through the existing
hsr_free_node_rcu() callback. This matches the lifetime rule used by the
HSR prune paths, which already delete nodes with list_del_rcu() and
call_rcu(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
qed: fix double free in qed_cxt_tables_alloc()
If one of the later PF or VF CID bitmap allocations fails,
qed_cid_map_alloc() jumps to cid_map_fail and frees the previously
allocated CID bitmaps before returning an error. qed_cxt_tables_alloc()
then calls qed_cxt_mngr_free(), which invokes qed_cid_map_free()
again.
Fix this by setting each CID bitmap pointer to NULL after bitmap_free()
to avoid double free.
The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are
developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing
v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly
available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still
present in v7.1-rc3.
Runtime reproduction was not attempted because exercising the failing
allocation path requires device-specific setup. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: ioam: add NULL check for idev in ipv6_hop_ioam()
Reported by Sashiko:
The function ipv6_hop_ioam() accesses
__in6_dev_get(skb->dev)->cnf.ioam6_enabled without validating the returned
idev pointer. Because addrconf_ifdown() can concurrently clear dev->ip6_ptr
via RCU, __in6_dev_get() can return NULL during interface teardown, which
could cause a NULL pointer dereference when processing an IOAM Hop-by-Hop
option.
Let's add a check and use SKB_DROP_REASON_IPV6DISABLED accordingly. |

vsock/vmci: fix UAF when peer resets connection during handshake
vmci_transport_recv_connecting_server() returned err = 0 for a peer
RST in its default switch arm:
err = pkt->type == VMCI_TRANSPORT_PACKET_TYPE_RST ? 0 : -EINVAL;
That made vmci_transport_recv_listen() skip vsock_remove_pending(),
leaving the pending socket on the listener's pending_links with
sk_state = TCP_CLOSE while destroy: still dropped the explicit
reference taken before schedule_delayed_work().
One second later vsock_pending_work() observed is_pending=true and
performed full cleanup: vsock_remove_pending() then the two trailing
sock_put(sk) calls -- the first reached refcount 0 and __sk_freed
the socket, and the second wrote into the freed object:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in refcount_warn_saturate
Write of size 4 at addr ffff88800b1cac80 by task kworker
Workqueue: events vsock_pending_work
Treat peer RST like any other unexpected packet type (err = -EINVAL).
All destroy: arms now return err < 0, so vmci_transport_recv_listen()
removes pending from pending_links synchronously and
vsock_pending_work() takes the is_pending=false / !rejected branch,
dropping only its own work reference. This also closes the
multi-packet race Sashiko reported on v2: pending is removed from
the list before any subsequent packet can find it.
The pre-existing sk_acceptq_removed() gap on the err < 0 path of
vmci_transport_recv_listen() that Sashiko also noted is not
introduced or changed by this patch.
Tested on lts-6.12.79 with KASAN: 52/100 unpatched -> 0/100 patched. |

rbd: eliminate a race in lock_dwork draining on unmap
Given how rbd_lock_add_request() and rbd_img_exclusive_lock() are
written, lock_dwork may be (re)queued more than it's actually needed:
for example in case a new I/O request comes in while we are in the
middle of rbd_acquire_lock() on behalf of another I/O request. This is
expected and with rbd_release_lock() preemptively canceling lock_dwork
is benign under normal operation.
A more problematic example is maybe_kick_acquire():
if (have_requests || delayed_work_pending(&rbd_dev->lock_dwork)) {
dout("%s rbd_dev %p kicking lock_dwork\n", __func__, rbd_dev);
mod_delayed_work(rbd_dev->task_wq, &rbd_dev->lock_dwork, 0);
}
It's not unrealistic for lock_dwork to get canceled right after
delayed_work_pending() returns true and for mod_delayed_work() to
requeue it right there anyway. This is a classic TOCTOU race.
When it comes to unmapping the image, there is an implicit assumption
of no self-initiated exclusive lock activity past the point of return
from rbd_dev_image_unlock() which unlocks the lock if it happens to be
held. This unlock is assumed to be final and lock_dwork (as well as
all other exclusive lock tasks, really) isn't expected to get queued
again. However, lock_dwork is canceled only in cancel_tasks_sync()
(i.e. later in the unmap sequence) and on top of that the cancellation
can get in effect nullified by maybe_kick_acquire(). This may result
in rbd_acquire_lock() executing after rbd_dev_device_release() and
rbd_dev_image_release() run and free and/or reset a bunch of things.
One of the possible failure modes then is a violated
rbd_assert(rbd_image_format_valid(rbd_dev->image_format));
in rbd_dev_header_info() which is called via rbd_dev_refresh() from
rbd_post_acquire_action().
Redo exclusive lock task draining to provide saner semantics and try
to meet the assumptions around rbd_dev_image_unlock(). |

af_unix: Fix UAF read of tail->len in unix_stream_data_wait()
unix_stream_data_wait() does skb_peek_tail(&sk->sk_receive_queue) without
holding any lock that prevents SKBs on that queue from being dequeued and
freed.
This has been the case since commit 79f632c71bea ("unix/stream: fix
peeking with an offset larger than data in queue").
The first consequence of this is that the pointer comparison
`tail != last` can be false even if `last` semantically refers to an
already-freed SKB while `tail` is a new SKB allocated at the same address;
which can cause unix_stream_data_wait() to wrongly keep blocking after new
data has arrived, but only in a weird scenario where a peeking recv() and
a normal recv() on the same socket are racing, which is probably not a
real problem.
But since commit 2b514574f7e8 ("net: af_unix: implement splice for stream
af_unix sockets"), `tail` is actually dereferenced, which can cause UAF in
the following race scenario (where test_setup() runs single-threaded,
and afterwards, test_thread1() and test_thread2() run concurrently in
two threads:
```
static int socks[2];
void test_setup(void) {
socketpair(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0, socks);
send(socks[1], "A", 1, 0);
int peekoff = 1;
setsockopt(socks[0], SOL_SOCKET, SO_PEEK_OFF, &peekoff, sizeof(peekoff));
}
void test_thread1(void) {
char dummy;
recv(socks[0], &dummy, 1, MSG_PEEK);
}
void test_thread2(void) {
char dummy;
recv(socks[0], &dummy, 1, 0);
shutdown(socks[1], SHUT_WR);
}
```
when racing like this:
```
thread1 thread2
unix_stream_read_generic
mutex_lock(&u->iolock)
skb_peek(&sk->sk_receive_queue)
skb_peek_next(skb, &sk->sk_receive_queue)
mutex_unlock(&u->iolock)
unix_stream_read_generic
unix_state_lock(sk)
skb_peek(&sk->sk_receive_queue)
unix_state_unlock(sk)
unix_stream_data_wait
unix_state_lock(sk)
tail = skb_peek_tail(&sk->sk_receive_queue)
spin_lock(&sk->sk_receive_queue.lock)
__skb_unlink(skb, &sk->sk_receive_queue)
spin_unlock(&sk->sk_receive_queue.lock)
consume_skb(skb) [frees the SKB]
`tail != last`: false
`tail`: true
`tail->len != last_len` ***UAF***
```
Fix the UAF by removing the read of tail->len; checking tail->len would
only make sense if SKBs in the receive queue of a UNIX socket could grow,
which can no longer happen.

That means this fix is not suitable for kernels before 6.5. |
