In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlegacy: 3945: free EEPROM data on remove
il3945_pci_probe() calls il_eeprom_init(), which allocates memory for
the EEPROM data. The probe failure paths release this allocation with
il_eeprom_free(), but the remove path does not free it after a
successful probe.
As a result, the EEPROM data is leaked when the PCI device is removed.
Free the EEPROM data in il3945_pci_remove() before releasing the
mac80211 hardware structure.
This issue was found by manual code inspection.
wifi: mac80211: count only matching reservations in reserved switch
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: count only matching reservations in reserved switch
ieee80211_vif_use_reserved_switch() validates a replacement by counting
assigned links on ctx->replace_ctx and treating reservations too
broadly. A link can still be assigned to the old channel context while
holding a reservation that belongs to a different replacement
operation.
That can make the current replacement appear complete too early. If
another link finalizes first, the function can free the
WILL_BE_REPLACED chanctx while the unmatched link and driver still use
it, leading to a use-after-free in
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: keep paired old chanctx alive
An in-place replacement keeps reciprocal replace_ctx pointers between
the old WILL_BE_REPLACED chanctx and the new REPLACES_OTHER chanctx.
However, the early free paths only consider assigned and reserved link
users when deciding whether to free the old chanctx.
That lets the old chanctx be freed too early while the replacement
partner still points back to it, either when the last assigned link is
released or when that link successfully reassigns to another existing
context. Later unreserve and switch-finalization paths can the
wifi: mac80211: shut down RX BA session timer on teardown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: shut down RX BA session timer on teardown
Tearing down an RX BA session can leave the session timer queued on a
freed tid_rx. Later timer-wheel processing and the timer callback itself
then run against freed memory.
An RX BAR handler can dereference tid_rx under RCU before teardown
unpublishes it and stay in its read-side critical section while teardown
deletes the session timer. The stale handler can then rearm the timer
after timer_delete_sync() returns and before the RCU callback frees
tid_rx.
Use timer_shutdown_sync() so rearm attempts become ineffecti
wifi: mac80211: drain PS delivery work during station teardown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: drain PS delivery work during station teardown
Removing an AP or mesh station can notify the driver and wake TXQs after
the station has already been removed from the driver, and can update
num_sta_ps and the power-save queues after station cleanup has purged
them.
sta_deliver_ps_frames() tests sta->dead only before it starts delivery. A
worker that passes that test can be delayed while teardown sets sta->dead
and removes the station from the driver; when it resumes it still runs the
full delivery.
The existing cancel_work_sync() sits near the end of

wifi: mac80211: account proxy paths against the mesh path limit
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: account proxy paths against the mesh path limit
Proxy-path churn can drive the interface path counter negative and let
later mesh path additions exceed MESH_MAX_MPATHS.
mesh_path_free_rcu() decrements the interface mpaths counter for entries
from both the mesh and proxy path tables, but mpp_path_add() never
reserves a slot in that counter. Removing or expiring a proxy path
therefore returns a slot that was never charged.
mesh_path_add() uses the same counter to enforce MESH_MAX_MPATHS, so once
it falls below the number of installed paths the limit no longe
wifi: mac80211: keep fallback association elements alive
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: keep fallback association elements alive
Associating to a non-transmitted MBSSID profile reads freed memory while
determining the operating channel and applying HT capabilities.
When an association response omits WMM, HT, or VHT information,
ieee80211_assoc_config_link() parses the cached BSS IEs and copies the
missing element pointers out of that fallback parse. For a
non-transmitted MBSSID profile those pointers refer to merged-profile
storage owned by the parse object, and the fallback block frees that
object at its end. The copied pointers are used afte
wifi: mac80211: minstrel_ht: validate fixed rate index
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: minstrel_ht: validate fixed rate index
The fixed_rate_idx debugfs file is a plain u32 attribute, so any value
can be written to it. minstrel_ht_update_stats() then copies the value
into mi->max_tp_rate[] and mi->max_prob_rate, and
minstrel_ht_set_rate() uses MI_RATE_GROUP()/MI_RATE_IDX() to index
minstrel_mcs_groups[] (42 entries) and mi->groups[].rates[] (10 entries)
with it.
Writing e.g. 65535 selects group 4095 and rate index 15, far outside
both arrays. The out-of-bounds entries are dereferenced and updated as

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: reject invalid 320 MHz CSA bandwidth
The HT/VHT channel definition validator can receive a 320 MHz
bandwidth indication from a received CSA frame on a non-6 GHz link.
It warns for this unsupported width but continues with an uninitialized
vht_operation.chan_width, which is then read by
ieee80211_chandef_vht_oper(). With panic_on_warn enabled, this lets a
received frame panic the kernel.
Reject the channel definition before entering the VHT operation
conversion. This preserves the existing CSA fallback while avoiding
both the warning and the uninitialized re
wifi: mac80211: release mesh path quota on failed additions
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: release mesh path quota on failed additions
Repeated failed or duplicate mesh path additions can exhaust
MESH_MAX_MPATHS while the path table holds fewer paths, which stops new
paths to reachable destinations from being created.
mesh_path_add() reserves a slot before allocating and inserting a path.
If allocation fails, the function returns without releasing the slot. If
the rhashtable insertion reports an error or an existing destination, the
function discards its candidate but retains the reservation. No new path
is installed in any of these cases.

wifi: mac80211: set info->band for 802.3 encap offload frames
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: set info->band for 802.3 encap offload frames
Unlike the 802.11 TX paths, ieee80211_8023_xmit() does not set
info->band from the channel context on non-MLD interfaces. It stays at
0, so ieee80211_get_tx_rates() uses the wrong band for these frames.
Set it the same way as ieee80211_build_hdr(): drop the frame if there is
no channel context, and leave the band at 0 on MLD interfaces.
wifi: mac80211: fix mesh fast xmit path deletion UAF
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: fix mesh fast xmit path deletion UAF
mesh_fast_tx_cache() stores raw mesh_path pointers. Path deletion
flushes the cache and then frees the path with kfree_rcu(), but a
lookup that already holds the path can insert a new cache entry
after the flush. The cache then points at freed memory.
Set MESH_PATH_DELETED before flushing, and skip inserting a cache
entry if the path or MPP path is already deleted. Check this under
the cache walk lock so it is ordered with the flush. Use WRITE_ONCE()
for the deletion flag updates because the cache check reads flags

wifi: mac80211: handle empty FILS association request payload
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: handle empty FILS association request payload
fils_encrypt_assoc_req() accepts a (Re)Association Request frame whose
last element is the FILS Session element. crypt_len is then zero and
aes_siv_encrypt() is called with an empty plaintext.
kmemdup() returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR for a zero-length allocation, so the
unconditional sg_init_one() puts an invalid page into the scatterlist.
With CONFIG_DEBUG_SG this triggers a kernel BUG in sg_set_buf();
without the debug check the bogus page is handed to the crypto backend.
AES-SIV is defined for empty plaintext and th
USB: serial: fix dynamic id driver deregistration race
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: fix dynamic id driver deregistration race
Only free the dynamic ids after having deregistered the driver and
removed the "new_id" attribute to avoid leaking any id added by a racing
write to the attribute.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: fix driver deregistration order
USB serial driver modules register one driver for the USB bus and one or
more drivers for the ports on the USB serial bus.
When unloading a driver module, the USB driver must be deregistered
before the USB serial bus drivers so that I/O is stopped before
unbinding the ports to avoid use-after-free in completion handlers
accessing port data.
Note that the "new_id" attributes must first be removed to prevent new
ids from being added and triggering a probe of the USB driver after it
has been deregistered.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: fix ioctl hangup race
The tty ioctls can race with hangup and end up calling into a tty driver
for a device that is already gone or powered down.
Serialise the callbacks using the tty port mutex and add the missing
checks to make sure the port has not been hung up before accessing port
driver data or hardware.
This specifically avoids dereferencing a NULL-pointer if a device is
disconnected during lengthy break signalling.
Note that TIOCGICOUNT and TIOCMIWAIT do not access port driver data or
hardware and are therefore not affected by the race.

thunderbolt: Reject oversized XDomain properties responses
tb_xdp_properties_request() allocates room for 45 data dwords in its
252-byte response buffer. The XDomain length field is six bits wide,
however, and a malicious peer can set it to 63. After the fixed response
fields are subtracted, the driver treats this as 48 data dwords.
Commit 322e93448d90 ("thunderbolt: Clamp XDomain response data copy to

at least 48, memcpy() reads 192 bytes from the 180-byte res->data array,

smb: client: discard post-EOF pagecache when extending a file via zero range
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: discard post-EOF pagecache when extending a file via zero range
smb3_zero_range() removed the pagecache only for the range being zeroed,
so when it extends the file the folio straddling the old EOF - which may
hold data dirtied past EOF through an mmap - was never dropped and became
visible as file content once the file was extended.
Lower the discard boundary to the smaller of the zero-range offset and the
old EOF.
smb: client: discard post-EOF pagecache when extending a file via clone range
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: discard post-EOF pagecache when extending a file via clone range
cifs_remap_file_range() discarded the pagecache only for the folios
overlapping the destination region, so when a clone extends the file the
folio straddling the old EOF - which may hold data dirtied past EOF
through an mmap - was never dropped and became visible as file content
once the file was extended.
Start the discard at the smaller of fstart and the old EOF. i_size is
still old here, so nothing past the old EOF is flushed to the server.
