In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: secure_seq: add back ports to TS offset
This reverts 28ee1b746f49 ("secure_seq: downgrade to per-host timestamp offsets")
tcp_tw_recycle went away in 2017.
Zhouyan Deng reported off-path TCP source port leakage via
SYN cookie side-channel that can be fixed in multiple ways.
One of them is to bring back TCP ports in TS offset randomization.
As a bonus, we perform a single siphash() computation
to provide both an ISN and a TS offset.
tls: Fix race condition in tls_sw_cancel_work_tx()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tls: Fix race condition in tls_sw_cancel_work_tx()
This issue was discovered during a code audit.
After cancel_delayed_work_sync() is called from tls_sk_proto_close(),
tx_work_handler() can still be scheduled from paths such as the
Delayed ACK handler or ksoftirqd.
As a result, the tx_work_handler() worker may dereference a freed
TLS object.
The following is a simple race scenario:
cpu0 cpu1
tls_sk_proto_close()
tls_sw_cancel_work_tx()
tls_write_space()
tls_sw_write_s
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
espintcp: Fix race condition in espintcp_close()
This issue was discovered during a code audit.
After cancel_work_sync() is called from espintcp_close(),
espintcp_tx_work() can still be scheduled from paths such as
the Delayed ACK handler or ksoftirqd.
As a result, the espintcp_tx_work() worker may dereference a
freed espintcp ctx or sk.
The following is a simple race scenario:
cpu0 cpu1
espintcp_close()
cancel_work_sync(&ctx->work);
espintcp_write_space()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/xattr: missing fdput() in fremovexattr error path
In the Linux kernel, the fremovexattr() syscall calls fdget() to acquire a
file reference but returns early without calling fdput() when
strncpy_from_user() fails on the name argument. In multi-threaded processes
where fdget() takes the slow path, this permanently leaks one
file reference per call, pinning the struct file and associated kernel
objects in memory. An unprivileged local user can exploit this to cause
kernel memory exhaustion. The issue was inadvertently fixed by commit
a71874379ec8 ("xattr: switch to CLASS(f
nftables disabled due to incorrect kernel backport
A Improper Access Control vulnerability in the kernel of SUSE SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP5 breaks nftables, causing firewall rules applied via nftables to not be effective.This issue affects SUSE Linux Enterprise Server: from 9e6d9d4601768c75fdb0bad3fbbe636e748939c2 before 9c294edb7085fb91650bc12233495a8974c5ff2d.
Nfs-utils: rpc.mountd in the nfs-utils privilege escalation
A vulnerability was recently discovered in the rpc.mountd daemon in the nfs-utils package for Linux, that allows a NFSv3 client to escalate the
privileges assigned to it in the /etc/exports file at mount time. In particular, it allows the client to access any subdirectory or subtree of an exported directory, regardless of the set file permissions, and regardless of any 'root_squash' or 'all_squash' attributes that would normally be expected to apply to that client.
Kernel: secure boot does not automatically enable kernel lockdown
The Linux Kernel lockdown mode for kernel versions starting on 6.12 and above for Fedora Linux has the lockdown mode disabled without any warning. This may allow an attacker to gain access to sensitive information such kernel memory mappings, I/O ports, BPF and kprobes. Additionally unsigned modules can be loaded, leading to execution of untrusted code breaking breaking any Secure Boot protection. This vulnerability affects only Fedora Linux.
riscv: trace: fix snapshot deadlock with sbi ecall
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
riscv: trace: fix snapshot deadlock with sbi ecall
If sbi_ecall.c's functions are traceable,
echo "__sbi_ecall:snapshot" > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_ftrace_filter
may get the kernel into a deadlock.
(Functions in sbi_ecall.c are excluded from tracing if
CONFIG_RISCV_ALTERNATIVE_EARLY is set.)
__sbi_ecall triggers a snapshot of the ringbuffer. The snapshot code
raises an IPI interrupt, which results in another call to __sbi_ecall
and another snapshot...
All it takes to get into this endless loop is one initial __sbi_ecall.
On RISC-V systems without SSTC extension, the clo
wifi: mac80211: don't WARN for connections on invalid channels
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: don't WARN for connections on invalid channels
It's not clear (to me) how exactly syzbot managed to hit this,
but it seems conceivable that e.g. regulatory changed and has
disabled a channel between scanning (channel is checked to be
usable by cfg80211_get_ies_channel_number) and connecting on
the channel later.
With one scenario that isn't covered elsewhere described above,
the warning isn't good, replace it with a (more informative)
error message.
ALSA: usb-audio: Prevent excessive number of frames
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Prevent excessive number of frames
In this case, the user constructed the parameters with maxpacksize 40
for rate 22050 / pps 1000, and packsize[0] 22 packsize[1] 23. The buffer
size for each data URB is maxpacksize * packets, which in this example
is 40 * 6 = 240; When the user performs a write operation to send audio
data into the ALSA PCM playback stream, the calculated number of frames
is packsize[0] * packets = 264, which exceeds the allocated URB buffer
size, triggering the out-of-bounds (OOB) issue reported by syzbot [1].

wifi: mac80211: correctly decode TTLM with default link map
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: correctly decode TTLM with default link map
TID-To-Link Mapping (TTLM) elements do not contain any link mapping
presence indicator if a default mapping is used and parsing needs to be
skipped.
Note that access points should not explicitly report an advertised TTLM
with a default mapping as that is the implied mapping if the element is
not included, this is even the case when switching back to the default
mapping. However, mac80211 would incorrectly parse the frame and would
also read one byte beyond the end of the element.
iommu/sva: invalidate stale IOTLB entries for kernel address space
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/sva: invalidate stale IOTLB entries for kernel address space
Introduce a new IOMMU interface to flush IOTLB paging cache entries for
the CPU kernel address space. This interface is invoked from the x86
architecture code that manages combined user and kernel page tables,
specifically before any kernel page table page is freed and reused.
This addresses the main issue with vfree() which is a common occurrence
and can be triggered by unprivileged users. While this resolves the
primary problem, it doesn't address some extremely rare case related to
memory unplug of mem
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
idpf: fix error handling in the init_task on load
If the init_task fails during a driver load, we end up without vports and
netdevs, effectively failing the entire process. In that state a
subsequent reset will result in a crash as the service task attempts to
access uninitialized resources. Following trace is from an error in the
init_task where the CREATE_VPORT (op 501) is rejected by the FW:
[40922.763136] idpf 0000:83:00.0: Device HW Reset initiated

ipv6: fix a BUG in rt6_get_pcpu_route() under PREEMPT_RT
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: fix a BUG in rt6_get_pcpu_route() under PREEMPT_RT
On PREEMPT_RT kernels, after rt6_get_pcpu_route() returns NULL, the
current task can be preempted. Another task running on the same CPU
may then execute rt6_make_pcpu_route() and successfully install a
pcpu_rt entry. When the first task resumes execution, its cmpxchg()
in rt6_make_pcpu_route() will fail because rt6i_pcpu is no longer
NULL, triggering the BUG_ON(prev). It's easy to reproduce it by adding
mdelay() after rt6_get_pcpu_route().
Using preempt_disable/enable is not appropriate here because

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
functionfs: fix the open/removal races
ffs_epfile_open() can race with removal, ending up with file->private_data
pointing to freed object.
There is a total count of opened files on functionfs (both ep0 and
dynamic ones) and when it hits zero, dynamic files get removed.
Unfortunately, that removal can happen while another thread is
in ffs_epfile_open(), but has not incremented the count yet.
In that case open will succeed, leaving us with UAF on any subsequent
read() or write().
The root cause is that ffs->opened is misused; atomic_dec_and_test() vs.

Input: lkkbd - disable pending work before freeing device
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: lkkbd - disable pending work before freeing device
lkkbd_interrupt() schedules lk->tq via schedule_work(), and the work
handler lkkbd_reinit() dereferences the lkkbd structure and its
serio/input_dev fields.
lkkbd_disconnect() and error paths in lkkbd_connect() free the lkkbd
structure without preventing the reinit work from being queued again
until serio_close() returns. This can allow the work handler to run
after the structure has been freed, leading to a potential use-after-free.
Use disable_work_sync() instead of cancel_work_sync() to ensure the

Input: alps - fix use-after-free bugs caused by dev3_register_work
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: alps - fix use-after-free bugs caused by dev3_register_work
The dev3_register_work delayed work item is initialized within
alps_reconnect() and scheduled upon receipt of the first bare
PS/2 packet from an external PS/2 device connected to the ALPS
touchpad. During device detachment, the original implementation
calls flush_workqueue() in psmouse_disconnect() to ensure
completion of dev3_register_work. However, the flush_workqueue()
in psmouse_disconnect() only blocks and waits for work items that
were already queued to the workqueue prior to its invocation. Any

drm/xe: Limit num_syncs to prevent oversized allocations
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: Limit num_syncs to prevent oversized allocations
The exec and vm_bind ioctl allow userspace to specify an arbitrary
num_syncs value. Without bounds checking, a very large num_syncs
can force an excessively large allocation, leading to kernel warnings
from the page allocator as below.
Introduce DRM_XE_MAX_SYNCS (set to 1024) and reject any request
exceeding this limit.

usb: phy: fsl-usb: Fix use-after-free in delayed work during device removal
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: phy: fsl-usb: Fix use-after-free in delayed work during device removal
The delayed work item otg_event is initialized in fsl_otg_conf() and
scheduled under two conditions:
1. When a host controller binds to the OTG controller.
2. When the USB ID pin state changes (cable insertion/removal).
A race condition occurs when the device is removed via fsl_otg_remove():
the fsl_otg instance may be freed while the delayed work is still pending
or executing. This leads to use-after-free when the work function
fsl_otg_event() accesses the already freed memory.
