In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: qat - clear AES key schedule from stack
qat_alg_xts_reverse_key() expands the forward XTS AES key on the stack.
That schedule contains key material and can remain in the stack frame.
Clear the temporary crypto_aes_ctx with memzero_explicit() after the copy.
crypto: atmel-ecc - reject hardware ECDH without a public key
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: atmel-ecc - reject hardware ECDH without a public key
The hardware ECDH path in atmel_ecdh_compute_shared_secret() uses the
private key stored in the device. However, the public key is cached only
after atmel_ecdh_set_secret() successfully generated that private key
for the current tfm.
atmel_ecdh_generate_public_key() already rejects requests when no public
key is cached. Add the same check to atmel_ecdh_compute_shared_secret()
to prevent the device from using a private key that was not generated
for the current tfm.
crypto: atmel-sha204a - fix heap info leak on I2C transfer failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: atmel-sha204a - fix heap info leak on I2C transfer failure
The nonblocking RNG path allocates a work_data structure to track the
state of an in-flight asynchronous I2C request. This pointer is stored
in rng->priv and later consumed by the read path once the transaction
completes.
If the underlying I2C transfer fails, the completion callback is invoked
with a non-zero status. In this case, the allocated work_data is not
usable for producing RNG output and must not remain associated with the
hwrng state.
Previously, the failure path only logged a warning but left th
crypto: sa2ul - stop probe if context pool creation fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: sa2ul - stop probe if context pool creation fails
sa_ul_probe() calls sa_init_mem() to create the DMA pool used for
security context buffers, but ignores its return value. If pool creation
fails, probe still continues with DMA setup, algorithm registration and
child population even though later request setup depends on that pool.
Stop probing when sa_init_mem() fails, and route that failure to the PM
cleanup path without attempting to destroy an uncreated DMA pool.
hwrng: xilinx-trng - propagate timeout before any data is read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwrng: xilinx-trng - propagate timeout before any data is read
xtrng_readblock32() polls for 16-byte chunks but returns the number of
bytes read even when the first poll times out. Its caller then treats a
zero return as a short successful read, and partial reads for full
32-byte blocks can make the tail copy use a fixed block offset rather
than the amount already produced.
Return the poll error when no data has been read, preserve partial
positive returns after some data is available, stop the generator on all
collection exits, and append tail bytes at the current output
crypto: rk3288 - fail ahash requests on HASH idle timeout
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: rk3288 - fail ahash requests on HASH idle timeout
rk_hash_run() waits for RK_CRYPTO_HASH_STS to become idle after the
final DMA transfer, but ignores the poll result. If the hash engine
never becomes idle, the driver still reads the digest registers and
finalizes the request with the previous success value.
Store the poll result and finalize the request with the timeout error
before reading the digest registers.
crypto: keembay - Fix AEAD unregister count in error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: keembay - Fix AEAD unregister count in error path
register_aes_algs() registers the AEAD algorithms before registering the
skcipher algorithms. If skcipher registration fails, the function unwinds
the earlier AEAD registration with crypto_engine_unregister_aeads(), but it
passes ARRAY_SIZE(algs), which is the skcipher table size.
Use ARRAY_SIZE(algs_aead) for the AEAD unwind path so the unregister helper
iterates over the same table that was registered. Also clarify the nearby
comment: the crypto registration helpers clean up algorithms registered
within the same
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/irdma: Add refcounting to user ring MRs
Prevent userspace from deregistering the MRs that back QP/CQ/SRQ rings
by bumping the MR's refcount upon association.
RDMA/bng_re: return a timeout when firmware responses stall
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bng_re: return a timeout when firmware responses stall
__wait_for_resp() documents that it returns a non-zero error when a
firmware command does not complete, and bng_re_rcfw_send_message() already
marks the firmware as stalled when the helper returns -ENODEV.
However, the helper ignores wait_event_timeout() expiry. If the response
slot remains in use after the timeout and after the polled CREQ service
attempt, the loop starts another full timeout period and can repeat
forever.
Return -ENODEV after a timed out wait that still has no response. The
existing caller th
nvme-apple: Use acquire/release for queue enabled state
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme-apple: Use acquire/release for queue enabled state
apple_nvme_init_queue() initializes queue state and then marks the queue
enabled. The interrupt and request paths check enabled before using that
queue state.
The old wmb() after WRITE_ONCE(enabled, true) does not publish the
earlier initialization before enabled becomes visible. Use a release store
when enabling the queue and acquire loads when testing it.
Although the shutdown-side enabled accesses are not used for publishing
queue initialization, use helpers for them as well for consistency.
nvmet-rdma: fix response resource leak on queue teardown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvmet-rdma: fix response resource leak on queue teardown
When an nvme target with rdma transport is removed while I/Os are in
flight, a response can be posted but its send completion is never
delivered before the connection is torn down. As a result
nvmet_rdma_send_done() and nvmet_rdma_release_rsp() are never called for
the response, and this leaks the allocated RDMA read/write context and
request SGLs.
These leaks are recreated by running blktests nvme/061 with the rdma
transport and the siw driver. Kernel kmemleak feature reports them as
follows:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cgroup/cpuset: Make nr_deadline_tasks an atomic_t
The nr_deadline_tasks variable in the cpuset structure was introduced by
commit 6c24849f5515 ("sched/cpuset: Keep track of SCHED_DEADLINE task
in cpusets"). It is reported by sashiko [1] that nr_deadline_tasks
can currently be modified by inc_dl_tasks_cs() under rq->lock and
by cpuset_attach() under cpuset_mutex. So if both updates happen
simultaneously, the nr_deadline_tasks variable can be corrupted leading
to incorrect operations down the road.
Fix that by changing its type to atomic_t so that nr_deadline_tasks
are alway
wifi: mac80211_hwsim: avoid NULL skb in stop queue drain
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211_hwsim: avoid NULL skb in stop queue drain
mac80211_hwsim_stop() drops any frames left in data->pending. The loop
currently checks skb_queue_empty() and then dequeues separately.
That split is racy with TX status handling, which can remove a pending
frame under the queue lock. If the last entry is removed after the empty
check, skb_dequeue() returns NULL and the stop path passes that NULL skb
to ieee80211_free_txskb().
Use skb_dequeue() as the loop condition instead. The dequeue result is the
object that stop owns and frees, and a concurrent status completio
bpf: Reject MEM_ALLOC BTF accesses past object bounds
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Reject MEM_ALLOC BTF accesses past object bounds
BTF struct walks relax the struct-size check for accesses through a
trailing flexible array. That is valid for ordinary BTF type walking, but
PTR_TO_BTF_ID | MEM_ALLOC values point to objects allocated with the static
BTF type size.
When walking a MEM_ALLOC object, reject the access before applying the
flexible-array relaxation if the access range extends past the struct size.
Apply the same policy to struct ID matching so kfunc and kptr type checks
do not walk past the allocated object bounds either.
time/namespace: Validate nanosecond field in proc_timens_set_offset()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
time/namespace: Validate nanosecond field in proc_timens_set_offset()
The function validates tv_sec to be within [-KTIME_SEC_MAX, KTIME_SEC_MAX]
but never validates that tv_nsec is within the valid range of
[0, NSEC_PER_SEC-1] before using it in timespec64_add().
timespec64_add() expects both timespec64 structures to have normalized
values with tv_nsec in the range [0, 999999999]. If off->val.tv_nsec
contains invalid values (negative or >= NSEC_PER_SEC), it could lead to
incorrect calculations or unexpected behavior.
Add validation to ensure tv_nsec is within the valid ra
clk: qcom: gdsc: tear down per-domain genpds in gdsc_unregister()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: qcom: gdsc: tear down per-domain genpds in gdsc_unregister()
gdsc_unregister() removes the OF provider entry and tears down the
parent/subdomain wiring, but never calls pm_genpd_remove() on the
individual generic_pm_domain structures registered by gdsc_init():
void gdsc_unregister(struct gdsc_desc *desc)
{
struct device *dev = desc->dev;
size_t num = desc->num;
gdsc_pm_subdomain_remove(desc, num);
of_genpd_del_provider(dev->of_node);
}
That leaves dangling entries on the global gpd_list. After a provider

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Reject writes through untrusted BTF pointers
check_ptr_to_btf_access() lets program-type btf_struct_access callbacks
validate writes before the default BTF access path rejects non-read
accesses. That bypasses the read-only policy for untrusted BTF pointers
created by helpers such as bpf_rdonly_cast().
Reject non-read accesses through PTR_UNTRUSTED BTF pointers at the
common entry point, before the callback branch to handle all cases.
staging: media: ipu7: fix pm_runtime refcount leak in ipu7_resume()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: media: ipu7: fix pm_runtime refcount leak in ipu7_resume()
ipu7_resume() calls pm_runtime_get_sync() before resuming the device.
If the runtime PM resume fails, the usage count remains incremented, but
the error path returns without dropping the reference.
Use pm_runtime_resume_and_get() instead, which balances the usage count
on failure and avoids the leak. Keep returning 0 on error, as resume
callbacks should not propagate failures to the PM core, matching the
behaviour of the ipu6 driver.
thermal/drivers/rcar: Fix error checking in probe()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thermal/drivers/rcar: Fix error checking in probe()
This code accidentally calls thermal_zone_device_enable() before checking
whether thermal_zone_device_register_with_trips() failed. Move the call
until later to avoid an error pointer dereference of "priv->zone".
The driver works differently depending on if we are using OF thermal or
not. We use thermal_add_hwmon_sysfs() if we are using OF thermal and
call thermal_zone_device_enable() if not. We can share same error check
for if either of these fail.
Moving the thermal_zone_device_enable() call is a bit cleaner as wel
usb: gadget: r8a66597: avoid double free of ep0_req in probe error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: r8a66597: avoid double free of ep0_req in probe error path
If usb_add_gadget_udc() fails, r8a66597_probe() jumps to err_add_udc
and frees ep0_req, then falls through to clean_up2 where ep0_req is
freed again when it is non-NULL.
Remove the redundant free from err_add_udc and keep the cleanup in
clean_up2 so the request is released exactly once.
Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool
and confirmed by code review.
