scsi: mpt3sas: Fix crash in transport port remove by using ioc_info()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: mpt3sas: Fix crash in transport port remove by using ioc_info()
During mpt3sas_transport_port_remove(), messages were logged with
dev_printk() against &mpt3sas_port->port->dev. At this point the SAS
transport device may already be partially unregistered or freed, leading
to a crash when accessing its struct device.

drm/vmwgfx: Fix a null-ptr access in the cursor snooper
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/vmwgfx: Fix a null-ptr access in the cursor snooper
Check that the resource which is converted to a surface exists before
trying to use the cursor snooper on it.
vmw_cmd_res_check allows explicit invalid (SVGA3D_INVALID_ID) identifiers
because some svga commands accept SVGA3D_INVALID_ID to mean "no surface",
unfortunately functions that accept the actual surfaces as objects might
(and in case of the cursor snooper, do not) be able to handle null
objects. Make sure that we validate not only the identifier (via the
vmw_cmd_res_check) but also check that the actual resour

comedi: fix divide-by-zero in comedi_buf_munge()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
comedi: fix divide-by-zero in comedi_buf_munge()
The comedi_buf_munge() function performs a modulo operation
`async->munge_chan %= async->cmd.chanlist_len` without first
checking if chanlist_len is zero. If a user program submits a command with
chanlist_len set to zero, this causes a divide-by-zero error when the device
processes data in the interrupt handler path.
Add a check for zero chanlist_len at the beginning of the
function, similar to the existing checks for !map and
CMDF_RAWDATA flag. When chanlist_len is zero, update
munge_count and return early, indicating the d

net/sched: sch_qfq: Fix null-deref in agg_dequeue
To prevent a potential crash in agg_dequeue (net/sched/sch_qfq.c)
when cl->qdisc->ops->peek(cl->qdisc) returns NULL, we check the return
value before using it, similar to the existing approach in sch_hfsc.c.
To avoid code duplication, the following changes are made:
1. Changed qdisc_warn_nonwc(include/net/pkt_sched.h) into a static
inline function.
2. Moved qdisc_peek_len from net/sched/sch_hfsc.c to
include/net/pkt_sched.h so that sch_qfq can reuse it.
3. Applied qdisc_peek_len in agg_dequeue to avoid crashing.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: dlink: handle copy_thresh allocation failure
The driver did not handle failure of `netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align()`.
If the allocation failed, dereferencing `skb->protocol` could lead to
a NULL pointer dereference.
This patch tries to allocate `skb`. If the allocation fails, it falls
back to the normal path.

Squashfs: fix uninit-value in squashfs_get_parent
Syzkaller reports a "KMSAN: uninit-value in squashfs_get_parent" bug.
This is caused by open_by_handle_at() being called with a file handle
containing an invalid parent inode number. In particular the inode number
is that of a symbolic link, rather than a directory.
Squashfs_get_parent() gets called with that symbolic link inode, and
accesses the parent member field.
unsigned int parent_ino = squashfs_i(inode)->parent;
Because non-directory inodes in Squashfs do not have a parent value, this
is uninitialised, and this
fs: udf: fix OOB read in lengthAllocDescs handling
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs: udf: fix OOB read in lengthAllocDescs handling
When parsing Allocation Extent Descriptor, lengthAllocDescs comes from
on-disk data and must be validated against the block size. Crafted or
corrupted images may set lengthAllocDescs so that the total descriptor
length (sizeof(allocExtDesc) + lengthAllocDescs) exceeds the buffer,
leading udf_update_tag() to call crc_itu_t() on out-of-bounds memory and
trigger a KASAN use-after-free read.

net: nfc: nci: Add parameter validation for packet data

net: nfc: nci: Add parameter validation for packet data
Syzbot reported an uninitialized value bug in nci_init_req, which was
introduced by commit 5aca7966d2a7 ("Merge tag
'perf-tools-fixes-for-v6.17-2025-09-16' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/perf/perf-tools").
This bug arises due to very limited and poor input validation
that was done at nic_valid_size(). This validation only
validates the skb->len (directly reflects size provided at the
userspace interface) with the length provided in the buffer
itself (interpreted as NCI_HEADER). This leads to the proc

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86: Don't (re)check L1 intercepts when completing userspace I/O
When completing emulation of instruction that generated a userspace exit
for I/O, don't recheck L1 intercepts as KVM has already finished that
phase of instruction execution, i.e. has already committed to allowing L2
to perform I/O. If L1 (or host userspace) modifies the I/O permission
bitmaps during the exit to userspace, KVM will treat the access as being
intercepted despite already having emulated the I/O access.
Pivot on EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE to detect that KVM is completing emulation.
