| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Reject resilient lock operations in rbtree callbacks
__bpf_rbtree_add() keeps parent and link pointers live across calls to the
program-supplied comparison callback. The verifier therefore requires the
root's lock to remain held throughout the callback.
The helper path enforces this rule for bpf_spin_lock() and
bpf_spin_unlock(), but the resilient lock kfunc argument path does not.
Since resilient locks may protect BPF rbtree roots, a callback can release
the root lock and let another CPU remove and free the node referenced by
the in-progress tree walk. The walk then resumes using freed pointers.
Reject resilient lock kfuncs in an rbtree comparison callback, matching
the existing policy for the spin lock helpers. Resilient-lock-protected
trees remain valid when their comparison callbacks leave lock state alone. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vxlan: initialize _md in vxlan_xmit_one()
If a VXLAN device is configured with both VXLAN_F_COLLECT_METADATA and
VXLAN_F_GBP, and a packet is transmitted through it using an external
ip_tunnel_info that lacks the IP_TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT_BIT flag, md is left
pointing to the uninitialized _md stack variable:
if (test_bit(IP_TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT_BIT, info->key.tun_flags)) {
if (info->options_len < sizeof(*md))
goto drop;
md = ip_tunnel_info_opts(info);
}
Because IP_TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT_BIT is not set, md is not updated and remains
pointing to _md. Later, vxlan_build_skb() is called with md, which
eventually calls vxlan_build_gbp_hdr():
if (vxflags & VXLAN_F_GBP)
vxlan_build_gbp_hdr(vxh, md);
Inside vxlan_build_gbp_hdr(), md->gbp is read:
if (!md->gbp)
return;
gbp = (struct vxlanhdr_gbp *)vxh;
...
if (md->gbp & VXLAN_GBP_DONT_LEARN)
gbp->dont_learn = 1;
If the stack contains garbage, this causes:
1) VXLAN_HF_GBP flag to be spuriously set in the VXLAN header.
2) gbp->dont_learn and gbp->policy_applied to be set from stack bits.
3) gbp->policy_id to receive 16 bits of uninitialized kernel stack data,
leaking it onto the wire.
Fix this by zero-initializing _md. If IP_TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT_BIT is not
present, md->gbp remains 0, and vxlan_build_gbp_hdr() returns early
without modifying the VXLAN header. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: null-check fib6_node before accessing in __ip6_del_rt_siblings()
syzbot reported a null-ptr-deref in __ip6_del_rt_siblings() [0].
The stack trace hinted towards a null dereference of rt->fib6_node when
fn->leaf is accessed in __ip6_del_rt_siblings(). With
RTNL_FLAG_DOIT_UNLOCKED set, inet6_rtm_delroute() operations run
concurrently without acquiring the RTNL lock. In ip6_route_del(), the
route lookup happens under rcu_read_lock() without acquiring
table->tb6_lock.
Between ip6_route_del() looking up the route and __ip6_del_rt_siblings()
acquiring table->tb6_lock, another thread can modify the routing table.
For example, when an ECMP route is replaced via RTM_NEWROUTE with
NLM_F_REPLACE, fib6_add_rt2node() unlinks all old siblings and sets
iter->fib6_node = NULL. A reproducer was found that triggers this [1].
Add a check to ensure rt->fib6_node is non-null before accessing it.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mlxsw: spectrum_ptp: Fix napi_gro_receive() call from GC workqueue context
Currently mlxsw_sp1_ptp_ht_gc_collect() is run from the PTP
garbage-collection workqueue, rather than the NAPI poll context. For any
unmatched PTP entries carrying an SKB, it calls
mlxsw_sp1_ptp_unmatched_finish() -> mlxsw_sp1_ptp_packet_finish(). For
ingress packets, this calls mlxsw_sp_rx_listener_no_mark_func(). The end
of that function is the following:
skb->protocol = eth_type_trans(skb, skb->dev);
napi_gro_receive(mlxsw_skb_cb(skb)->rx_md_info.napi, skb);
The napi pointer is one that was placed in the SKB control block when the
trapped packet was received in the NAPI context. Later, when the GC reaps
the unmatched entry (up to MLXSW_SP1_PTP_HT_GC_TIMEOUT later), the call to
napi_gro_receive() mutates the NAPI instance's GRO list, which is unsafe
if the poll is running concurrently on another CPU.
In mlxsw_sp1_ptp_ht_gc_collect(), local_bh_disable() is called to prevent
softirq processing, but this only applies to the local CPU. Additionally,
its comment is stale. It states that mlxsw_sp1_ptp_unmatched_finish()
invokes netif_receive_skb(). This has not been accurate since the
referenced commit; this patch makes that comment accurate again.
mlxsw_pci_napi_devs_init() calls netif_threaded_enable() on the NAPI RX
net_device without any conditions. The NAPI instance's poll, which may be
running concurrent to the GC, is running as an independently-scheduled
kthread which may be on a different CPU. The call to local_bh_disable()
does not guard against this.
If a tx-timestamp timeout produces an unmatched entry (which can be easily
reproduced by running ptp4l and waiting for a port to reach the
UNCALIBRATED/SLAVE state) while the owning NAPI thread is in the middle of
a poll on another CPU, both sides mutate the GRO list concurrently, as
shown below:
[39.846] port 1 (swp1): MASTER to UNCALIBRATED on RS_SLAVE
list_add corruption. next->prev should be prev (ffff8d620faf4138), but was ffff8d624150f700. (next=ffff8d620faf4138).

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
The machinery that leads to this kernel panic has not been changed between
6.18.48 and mainline.
This patch adds an ingress-delivery helper for the PTP packet_finish()
path that calls netif_receive_skb() instead of napi_gro_receive().
netif_receive_skb(), unlike napi_gro_receive(), can be called from outside
of the NAPI instance's poll context, which can occur at the call site for
this path. RX stats accounting and the skb->dev assignment are still
preserved; the only change is the delivery call itself.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Mark sched_process_wait argument as nullable
do_wait() passes wo->wo_pid to the sched_process_wait tracepoint.
kernel_wait4() leaves wo_pid NULL for wait4(-1), and
kernel_waitid_prepare() does likewise for waitid(P_ALL).
btf_ctx_access() currently types argument 0 as PTR_TO_BTF_ID |
PTR_TRUSTED. Without PTR_MAYBE_NULL, the verifier accepts an unchecked
dereference. Trusted pointer loads have no fault protection, so a wait for
any child can then cause a NULL pointer dereference in JITed BPF code.
Add sched_process_wait to raw_tp_null_args[] with argument 0 marked
nullable. The verifier rejects an unchecked dereference while preserving
access after the program checks the pointer for NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI/proc: Use file_ns_capable() when checking config space read access
proc_bus_pci_read() decides how much of the config space is readable based
on capable(CAP_SYS_ADMIN), which checks the credentials of the task calling
read(), not the credentials of the process that opened the file.
The sysfs equivalent, pci_read_config(), has checked the credentials of the
opening process since commit de139a339395 ("pci: check caps from sysfs file
open to read device dependent config space"), so a privileged process can
open the config space file and pass the file descriptor to an unprivileged
process (for example, a process running a KVM guest with an assigned
device), which can then read the entire config space. The check was
subsequently routed through the LSM framework in commit 47970b1b2aa6 ("pci:
use security_capable() when checking capablities during config space read")
and converted to the dedicated helper in commit ab0fa82b2df9 ("pci-sysfs:
use proper file capability helper function").
Thus, the two interfaces check the same capability against different
credentials. Checking the credentials of the task calling read() makes the
outcome depend on who reads rather than who opened, so the restriction is
bypassed whenever a more privileged process reads through the descriptor.
Checking the credentials recorded in file->f_cred settles the decision at
open() time and ties it to the file, where it cannot change with the
caller.
Use file_ns_capable() to check CAP_SYS_ADMIN against the credentials in
effect when the file was opened, bringing the procfs interface in line with
the sysfs behaviour.
As a result, a file descriptor opened by a privileged process and passed to
an unprivileged one now allows the entire config space to be read through
procfs, matching sysfs. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
phy: fsl-imx8mq-usb: fix typec switch leak on probe error path
If probe fails after imx95_usb_phy_get_tca() succeeds, the typec
switch leaks because the only cleanup path was in .remove(), which
never runs on probe failure.
Use devm_add_action_or_reset() so the switch is cleaned up on both
probe failure and driver removal. The imx95_usb_phy_put_tca() is no
longer needed, it will be removed in .remove() too. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: rkvdec: bound HEVC tile loops and PPS id to the array capacity
compute_tiles_uniform() and compute_tiles_non_uniform() loop over
num_tile_columns_minus1 + 1 / num_tile_rows_minus1 + 1 entries, and
assemble_hw_pps() writes one COLUMN_WIDTH / ROW_HEIGHT register per tile
and indexes priv_tbl->param_set[] by pic_parameter_set_id, all taken from
the untrusted PPS. Use the bounded v4l2_hevc_pps_num_tile_columns() /
v4l2_hevc_pps_num_tile_rows() helpers for the tile loops, and bail out of
assemble_hw_pps() before indexing priv_tbl->param_set[] with an
out-of-range pic_parameter_set_id, so the writes stay within the hardware
tables. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
of: fix out-of-bounds read in of_alias_scan() stem parser
The stem parser tests isdigit(*(end - 1)) before checking end > start
and so reads one byte before the property name when the name is empty
or all digits. Check the bound first. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched_ext: Keep kick_sync waiting on the rq's own CPU
kick_sync_wait_bal_cb() assumes it runs on the rq's CPU from the
__schedule() tail: the snapshots it compares against live in that CPU's
percpu area and the busy-wait runs with the rq lock dropped and IRQs
enabled.
However, dispatch can now drop the rq lock while the callback sits queued,
and rq lock takers in that window (the sched class change paths, the scx
task iterator) flush pending balance callbacks on release, running the
callback on a foreign CPU. Such a run compares against unrelated snapshots
and can deadlock when the executing CPU is itself a wait target.
Bail on a foreign CPU and leave the wait state alone. The wait only observes
progress that the resched kicks already guarantee and the rq's next wait
picks up the stale cpus_to_sync bits. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
accel: ethosu: Ensure SRAM region size matches job
It is possible for userspace to set the job SRAM size to 0, but then still
have SRAM accesses in the command stream. When the job SRAM size is 0,
setting the region base register is skipped and a stale base address from
a prior job is used.
Check the region size against the job's SRAM size instead of just the size
of the SRAM. The job's SRAM size was already checked against the total SRAM
size. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/page_owner: use memcg_data snapshot to avoid TOCTOU in print_page_owner_memcg()
print_page_owner_memcg() reads page->memcg_data via READ_ONCE() at the
start to guard against tail pages and NULL data. However, it later
re-reads page->memcg_data locklessly in two places:
1: page_memcg_check(page)
2: PageMemcgKmem(page) (via folio_memcg_kmem(), which includes
VM_BUG_ON assertions for tail pages and MEMCG_DATA_OBJEXTS)
If the page is concurrently freed and reallocated as a THP tail page or
slab page between these calls, the VM_BUG_ON assertions can trigger on
CONFIG_DEBUG_VM=y builds, crashing the kernel.
Fix both TOCTOU issues by using the memcg_data snapshot throughout. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb/client: zero-initialize stack-allocated cifs_open_info_data
Stack-allocated cifs_open_info_data may contain random data.
This can make some fields have wrong value if they are not set later. |

ASoC: Intel: avs: Refactor and fix init_config access
Existing code accesses enties found in ->init_configs array through
indexes that are part of ->config_ids array. Those two are limited by:
->num_init_configs and ->num_config_ids respectively. Using ID larger
or equal to ->num_init_configs leads to out-of-bounds access:
avs_path_module_send_init_configs()
loop:
(...) &acomp->tplg->init_configs[ids[i]]
^ out-of-bounds candidate
Rather than adding another if-statement, refactor the code. There is no
need to store the IDs, have a list of pointers to actual config-entries
instead. As the verification of ->init_config entries does not differ from
verification of other types that are part of the topology.c file, simply
reuse the code. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme: remove stale namespaces by NSID range during scan
nvme_scan_ns_list() drops the stale namespaces in each gap in the
reported NSID list one NSID at a time. Every iteration calls
nvme_find_get_ns() to look the namespace up and removes it if it is
present. The loop runs once per NSID in the gap rather than once per
namespace actually present.
NSIDs are 32-bit, so a target with a sparse NSID space can make a
single gap spin the loop billions of times with nothing to remove.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio-fs: avoid double-free on failed queue setup
virtio_fs_setup_vqs() allocates fs->vqs and fs->mq_map before calling
virtio_find_vqs(). If virtio_find_vqs() fails, the error path frees both
pointers and returns an error to virtio_fs_probe().
virtio_fs_probe() then drops the last kobject reference, and
virtio_fs_ktype_release() frees fs->vqs and fs->mq_map again. This leaves
dangling pointers in struct virtio_fs and can trigger a double-free during
probe failure cleanup.
Set fs->vqs and fs->mq_map to NULL immediately after kfree() in the
virtio_fs_setup_vqs() error path so that the later kobject release sees an
uninitialized state and kfree(NULL) becomes harmless.
This can be reproduced when a broken virtio-fs device advertises more
request queues than the transport actually provides. In that case
virtio_find_vqs() fails while setting up the extra queue, and the probe
path reaches the double-free cleanup sequence. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: harden FRU PIA parsing with bounded helpers

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kasan: fix cache shrink race with CPU hotplug
kasan_quarantine_remove_cache() first invokes per_cpu_remove_cache() on
all online CPUs. Each callback moves objects belonging to the cache from
cpu_quarantine to the CPU's shrink_qlist, where they can later be freed
from task context.
kmem_cache_destroy() invokes the quarantine removal path while holding
cpus_read_lock(), but kmem_cache_shrink() does not. The latter can
therefore race with CPU offlining as follows:
kmem_cache_shrink() CPU hotplug
------------------- -----------
on_each_cpu()
CPU1 moves objects to
CPU1's shrink_qlist
on_each_cpu() returns
CPU1 goes offline
kasan_cpu_offline()
drains cpu_quarantine
leaves shrink_qlist untouched
for_each_online_cpu()
skips CPU1
The objects left on CPU1's shrink_qlist are not returned to the slab
allocator. This may prevent kmem_cache_shrink() from releasing slabs that
would otherwise become empty. If CPU1 remains offline, a later
kmem_cache_destroy() also skips the list and can report that the cache
still contains objects.
An intermittent occurrence was observed with a virtio-9p filesystem. The
mount and umount commands both returned 0, but the kernel logged the

Thus, a successful umount left objects in the 9p fcall cache and prevented
the cache from being destroyed cleanly.
Per-CPU shrink_qlist storage exists for every possible CPU, and each list
is protected by its own raw spinlock. Iterate over possible CPUs so that
a list populated before its CPU went offline is drained as well.
for_each_possible_cpu() can do more work than for_each_online_cpu(), but
this change only affects CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC kernels. The extra work is
limited to cache shrink and cache destruction paths and does not affect
the normal allocation/free fast path. It adds one raw-spinlock-protected
scan of each possible CPU's shrink list. These lists are normally empty;
a non-empty list is traversed to remove objects belonging to the cache
being shrunk or destroyed. |

registered completion callback. Under memory pressure this
skb_clone() fails, leaving hdev->req_skb NULL. The firmware reply
is received and processed, but hci_req_cmd_complete() finds NULL
req_skb, so hci_cmd_sync_complete() is never called, req_status
stays HCI_REQ_PEND, and the waiter times out with -ETIMEDOUT.
req_skb is only used to read bt_cb(skb)->hci callbacks and opcode --
it is never modified. Replace skb_clone() with skb_get(), which
simply increments the reference count of hdev->sent_cmd without
allocating new memory and therefore cannot fail.
This issue was first observed as a use-after-free in ttyport_close()
when ttyport_open() failed, which was investigated in an earlier
patch series [1]. That investigation led to the discovery of the
true root cause described above.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: harden DFS cache against invalid target hints
Currently, get_tgt_name() returns ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) when ce->tgthint is
NULL, and dfs_cache_noreq_update_tgthint() assumes ce->tgthint is always
valid.
In preparation for clearing ce->tgthint in free_tgts(), harden callers
of get_tgt_name() against ERR_PTR results and harden
dfs_cache_noreq_update_tgthint() against NULL pointer dereferences. |
