In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: arp: terminate device name before lookup
The ARP ioctl copies a user-provided struct arpreq into a stack object. Its
arp_dev field may contain IFNAMSIZ bytes without a NUL terminator.
Such input is passed to dev_get_by_name_rcu() or __dev_get_by_name(), where
strcmp() can read past the end of the stack object when a matching
alternative interface name exists.
Terminate the field before the lookup to prevent the out-of-bounds read.
net: atl1: fix soft lockup on out-of-range cmb_tpd_next_to_clean read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: atl1: fix soft lockup on out-of-range cmb_tpd_next_to_clean read
Same issue as atl1c (see the first commit in this series, "net:
atl1c: fix soft lockup on out-of-range tpd_cons read"): the hardware
can report an out-of-range cmb_tpd_next_to_clean (seen as 0xffff)
while the PCIe link/MAC is resetting. An out-of-range value can
never be reached and the loop below would spin forever. Treat it as
"nothing new to clean" instead.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ipconfig: bound DHCP option construction
ic_dhcp_init_options() appends the hostname (option 12), vendor-class
(option 60) and client-ID (option 61) options into the fixed 312-byte
bootp_pkt.exten[] buffer. Only the client-ID branch checked the
remaining space; the hostname and vendor-class writes were unbounded.
A 64-byte hostname together with the maximum 252-byte dhcpclass=
identifier needs 18 + (2 + 64) + (2 + 252) = 338 of the 312 available
bytes even before the terminating END marker, so the vendor-class memcpy
runs past the end of exten[]. With CONFIG_FORTIFY
net: macb: fix dma_alloc_coherent() leak on macb_alloc() error paths
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: macb: fix dma_alloc_coherent() leak on macb_alloc() error paths
Fix 3 leaks in macb_alloc() error paths:
- Tx buffer allocated but crossing a 4G boundary: Tx leaked.
- Rx buffer allocation fails: Tx leaked.
- Rx buffer allocated but crossing a 4G boundary: Tx & Rx leaked.
This is because our error handling calls macb_free(bp) which in turn
frees the buffers stored in bp->queues[0], but nothing has been stored
in there. Fix by storing allocated buffers into bp->queues[0] ASAP.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: openvswitch: conntrack: avoid modifying shared unconfirmed ct entry
In a case where skb with an unconfirmed ct entry gets cloned, we may
end up committing both but with different sets of extensions.
The series of events:
1. The first clone wants to commit and runs the helpers wiring up
the extension pointer into the expectation list.
2. Then it looses the confirmation keeping the entry unconfirmed.
3. Second clone now wants to commit labels and adds the new extension
for that breaking the pointer in the expectation list causing
UAF on the destruction p
net: openvswitch: conntrack: fix helper UAF due to extensions realloc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: openvswitch: conntrack: fix helper UAF due to extensions realloc
While calling the helpers, a raw pointer to the extensions area is
wired into expectations list:
-> nf_ct_helper()
-> helper->help()
-> nf_ct_expect_related_report()
-> nf_ct_expect_insert()
-> hlist_add_head_rcu(&exp->lnode, &master_help->expectations)
In case the connection is not confirmed yet, more extensions can be
added afterwards with *_ext_add() calls reallocating the extension
space and leaving the now invalid pointer in the expectations list
that is later accessed while rem
net: atl1c: fix soft lockup on out-of-range tpd_cons read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: atl1c: fix soft lockup on out-of-range tpd_cons read
The hardware can report an out-of-range tpd_cons (seen as 0xffff)
while the PCIe link/MAC is resetting. An out-of-range value can
never be reached and the loop below would spin forever. To avoid
a soft lockup treat it as "nothing new to clean" instead.
Reproduced on two machines, same NIC (Qualcomm Atheros AR8151 v2.0,
4-port), triggered by rebooting a Mikrotik CCR2004 PCIe card that
the ports are directly linked to:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: atl1e: fix soft lockup on out-of-range hw_next_to_clean read
Same issue as atl1c (see the first commit in this series, "net:
atl1c: fix soft lockup on out-of-range tpd_cons read"): the hardware
can report an out-of-range hw_next_to_clean (seen as 0xffff) while
the PCIe link/MAC is resetting. An out-of-range value can never be
reached and the loop below would spin forever. Treat it as "nothing

net: bridge: mdb: restart port group walk after deletion
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: mdb: restart port group walk after deletion
br_mdb_flush_pgs() keeps a pointer-to-pointer cursor while walking
mp->ports. br_multicast_del_pg() can re-enter the same MDB entry through
br_multicast_sg_del_exclude_ports() and unlink other port groups. If the
cursor points into one of those groups, the next iteration dereferences a
stale cursor and can leave mp->ports pointing at freed memory.
A following RTM_GETMDB exposes the dangling pointer:

net: ena: fix MMIO read buffer leak on probe failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ena: fix MMIO read buffer leak on probe failure
ena_device_init() initializes the MMIO read mechanism with
ena_com_mmio_reg_read_request_init(), which allocates a coherent DMA
buffer for MMIO read responses.
The normal removal path releases this buffer through
ena_com_mmio_reg_read_request_destroy(). However, if ena_probe() fails
after ena_device_init() succeeds, the error path destroys the admin
resources and eventually frees ena_dev without destroying the MMIO read
request, leaving the coherent DMA buffer allocated.
Call ena_com_mmio_reg_read_request_destroy() in t
netfilter: ip6t_rt: fix zero-address non-strict match out-of-bounds read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ip6t_rt: fix zero-address non-strict match out-of-bounds read
rt_mt6_check() permits rules to be configured with rtinfo->addrnr == 0
even when address matching (IP6T_RT_FST_MASK) is requested.
In the IP6T_RT_FST_NSTRICT path, rt_mt6() evaluates packet routing
addresses against rtinfo->addrs[i] and terminates backwards at the bottom
of the loop:
if (ipv6_addr_equal(ap, &rtinfo->addrs[i])) {
i++;
}
if (i == rtinfo->addrnr)
break;
When addrnr is 0, if the first packet address matches rtinfo->addrs[0],
i is incremented to 1. Because i i
netfilter: nf_tables: skip expired catchall elements on insert and delete
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: skip expired catchall elements on insert and delete
nft_setelem_catchall_insert() looks up duplicates with
nft_set_elem_active() only, while nft_set_catchall_lookup() and the
dump path additionally skip expired elements.
Once a catchall element with a timeout expires, this predicate drift
makes it invisible to userspace dumps, yet it still blocks
re-insertion: with NLM_F_EXCL the request fails with -EEXIST, and
without it the request reports success but silently inserts nothing.
The stale entry only goes away when the (user-tunable) gc interval
elapse
nfc: fix use-after-free in nfc_get_local_general_bytes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: fix use-after-free in nfc_get_local_general_bytes
Commit 6709d4b7bc2e ("net: nfc: Fix use-after-free caused by
nfc_llcp_find_local") attempted to fix a use-after-free (UAF) issue by
invoking nfc_llcp_local_put(local) after accessing local->gb. However,
if the reference count drops to zero, local is freed immediately,
leading to a use-after-free when callers access the returned pointer.
Alternative approaches using dynamic allocation (e.g. kmemdup) introduced
memory leaks because callers consistently treat the returned pointer as
borrowed memory.
Fix this properly by r
nfc: llcp: drop truncated I/RR/RNR PDUs in nfc_llcp_recv_hdlc()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: llcp: drop truncated I/RR/RNR PDUs in nfc_llcp_recv_hdlc()
nfc_llcp_recv_hdlc() reads the sequence byte skb->data[2], via
nfc_llcp_ns()/nfc_llcp_nr(), before any length check. The receive path
only guarantees the two-byte LLCP header -- __nfc_llcp_recv() checks it
with pskb_may_pull() and nfc_llcp_recv_agf() admits two-byte inner PDUs
-- so a two-byte I, RR or RNR PDU reads one byte of uninitialised skb
tailroom. The byte becomes N(R)/N(S); a peer can already set those with
a well-formed PDU, so this is acting on uninitialised memory, not new
peer control.

nfc: port100: reject frames whose declared length exceeds the received data
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: port100: reject frames whose declared length exceeds the received data
port100_recv_response() passes the URB transfer buffer to
port100_rx_frame_is_valid(), which checksums le16_to_cpu(frame->datalen)
bytes of frame->data. datalen is a 16-bit field supplied by the device
and is never checked against the number of bytes actually received
(urb->actual_length), so a device reporting a datalen larger than the
received frame makes port100_data_checksum() read out of bounds past the
transfer buffer.
Reject a response whose declared frame size does not fit the received

nfc: trf7970a: power down on startup RX gain failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: trf7970a: power down on startup RX gain failure
trf7970a_startup() powers up the device before applying the optional RX
gain reduction. If the register read or write fails, it returns without
undoing that power-up. Probe's unwind only drops the separate regulator
references acquired by probe, leaving the additional VIN enable from
startup unbalanced. The system resume caller also has no power-down on
this error.
Call trf7970a_power_down() before returning the RX gain error to deassert
the enable GPIOs, release the startup VIN reference and restore the
powered-off stat
scsi: libiscsi_tcp: Check the data direction of a Data-In PDU
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: libiscsi_tcp: Check the data direction of a Data-In PDU
The Data-In branch of iscsi_tcp_hdr_dissect() resolves the ITT to a task
and copies the PDU's data segment into that command's scatterlist without
asking whether the command was reading. iscsi_tcp_r2t_rsp() in the same
file does ask, and rejects an R2T for a command that is not DMA_TO_DEVICE.
A target that answers a WRITE command's ITT with a Data-In therefore has
the initiator write target-supplied bytes into the pages that write was
about to send. Those are the caller's own pinned pages for an O_DIRECT
write,
scsi: ufs: core: Keep internal commands dispatchable during error handling
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: ufs: core: Keep internal commands dispatchable during error handling
Commit 08b12cda6c44 ("scsi: ufs: core: Switch to scsi_get_internal_cmd()")
switched UFS internal commands to allocate requests on
hba->host->pseudo_sdev->request_queue, which shares the host tagset with
regular LUNs.
During error recovery, ufshcd_err_handling_prepare() calls
blk_mq_quiesce_tagset(&hba->host->tag_set), marking all queues in the
tagset as quiesced, including pseudo_sdev->request_queue. When
ufshcd_verify_dev_init() subsequently issues internal commands (e.g. NOP

perf/core: Fix NULL pmu_ctx passed to pmu->sched_task()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/core: Fix NULL pmu_ctx passed to pmu->sched_task()
perf_pmu_sched_task() returns early when cpuctx->task_ctx is set, and
cpc->task_epc is only non-NULL while a task context is scheduled in on
this CPU. __perf_pmu_sched_task() therefore always passes NULL:

s390/cio: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ccw_device_get_util_str()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/cio: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ccw_device_get_util_str()
The channel path registry entry associated with a CHPID may be removed
while the subchannel's PMCW still references that CHPID. In this case,
chpid_to_chp() can return NULL, leading to a NULL pointer dereference.
Add the missing NULL check before dereferencing the returned pointer.
