vsock: Ignore signal/timeout on connect() if already established

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vsock: Ignore signal/timeout on connect() if already established During connect(), acting on a signal/timeout by disconnecting an already established socket leads to several issues: 1. connect() invoking vsock_transport_cancel_pkt() -> virtio_transport_purge_skbs() may race with sendmsg() invoking virtio_transport_get_credit(). This results in a permanently elevated `vvs->bytes_unsent`. Which, in turn, confuses the SOCK_LINGER handling. 2. connect() resetting a connected socket's state may race with socket being placed in a sockmap. A disconnected socket remai

drm/msm: Fix pgtable prealloc error path

hfsplus: fix KMSAN uninit-value issue in __hfsplus_ext_cache_extent()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hfsplus: fix KMSAN uninit-value issue in __hfsplus_ext_cache_extent() The syzbot reported issue in __hfsplus_ext_cache_extent(): [ 70.194323][ T9350] BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in __hfsplus_ext_cache_extent+0x7d0/0x990 [ 70.195022][ T9350] __hfsplus_ext_cache_extent+0x7d0/0x990 [ 70.195530][ T9350] hfsplus_file_extend+0x74f/0x1cf0 [ 70.195998][ T9350] hfsplus_get_block+0xe16/0x17b0 [ 70.196458][ T9350] __block_write_begin_int+0x962/0x2ce0 [ 70.196959][ T9350] cont_write_begin+0x1000/0x1950 [ 70.197416][ T9350] hfsplus_write_begin+0x85/0x130 [ 70.197873]

hfs: fix KMSAN uninit-value issue in hfs_find_set_zero_bits()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hfs: fix KMSAN uninit-value issue in hfs_find_set_zero_bits() The syzbot reported issue in hfs_find_set_zero_bits(): ===================================================== BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in hfs_find_set_zero_bits+0x74d/0xb60 fs/hfs/bitmap.c:45 hfs_find_set_zero_bits+0x74d/0xb60 fs/hfs/bitmap.c:45 hfs_vbm_search_free+0x13c/0x5b0 fs/hfs/bitmap.c:151 hfs_extend_file+0x6a5/0x1b00 fs/hfs/extent.c:408 hfs_get_block+0x435/0x1150 fs/hfs/extent.c:353 __block_write_begin_int+0xa76/0x3030 fs/buffer.c:2151 block_write_begin fs/buffer.c:2262 [inline] cont_write_begin+0x

gfs2: Fix unlikely race in gdlm_put_lock

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gfs2: Fix unlikely race in gdlm_put_lock In gdlm_put_lock(), there is a small window of time in which the DFL_UNMOUNT flag has been set but the lockspace hasn't been released, yet. In that window, dlm may still call gdlm_ast() and gdlm_bast(). To prevent it from dereferencing freed glock objects, only free the glock if the lockspace has actually been released.

sctp: avoid NULL dereference when chunk data buffer is missing

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sctp: avoid NULL dereference when chunk data buffer is missing chunk->skb pointer is dereferenced in the if-block where it's supposed to be NULL only. chunk->skb can only be NULL if chunk->head_skb is not. Check for frag_list instead and do it just before replacing chunk->skb. We're sure that otherwise chunk->skb is non-NULL because of outer if() condition.

ocfs2: clear extent cache after moving/defragmenting extents

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ocfs2: clear extent cache after moving/defragmenting extents The extent map cache can become stale when extents are moved or defragmented, causing subsequent operations to see outdated extent flags. This triggers a BUG_ON in ocfs2_refcount_cal_cow_clusters(). The problem occurs when: 1. copy_file_range() creates a reflinked extent with OCFS2_EXT_REFCOUNTED 2. ioctl(FITRIM) triggers ocfs2_move_extents() 3. __ocfs2_move_extents_range() reads and caches the extent (flags=0x2) 4. ocfs2_move_extent()/ocfs2_defrag_extent() calls __ocfs2_move_extent() which clears OCFS2_EXT_R

fuse: fix livelock in synchronous file put from fuseblk workers

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fuse: fix livelock in synchronous file put from fuseblk workers I observed a hang when running generic/323 against a fuseblk server. This test opens a file, initiates a lot of AIO writes to that file descriptor, and closes the file descriptor before the writes complete. Unsurprisingly, the AIO exerciser threads are mostly stuck waiting for responses from the fuseblk server: # cat /proc/372265/task/372313/stack [<0>] request_wait_answer+0x1fe/0x2a0 [fuse] [<0>] __fuse_simple_request+0xd3/0x2b0 [fuse] [<0>] fuse_do_getattr+0xfc/0x1f0 [fuse] [<0>] fuse_file_read_iter+0xbe/0x1

xfrm: delete x->tunnel as we delete x

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xfrm: delete x->tunnel as we delete x The ipcomp fallback tunnels currently get deleted (from the various lists and hashtables) as the last user state that needed that fallback is destroyed (not deleted). If a reference to that user state still exists, the fallback state will remain on the hashtables/lists, triggering the WARN in xfrm_state_fini. Because of those remaining references, the fix in commit f75a2804da39 ("xfrm: destroy xfrm_state synchronously on net exit path") is not complete. We recently fixed one such situation in TCP due to defered freeing of skbs (commit

CVE-2025-62626

Improper handling of insufficient entropy in the AMD CPUs could allow a local attacker to influence the values returned by the RDSEED instruction, potentially resulting in the consumption of insufficiently random values.

ACPI: video: Fix use-after-free in acpi_video_switch_brightness()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ACPI: video: Fix use-after-free in acpi_video_switch_brightness() The switch_brightness_work delayed work accesses device->brightness and device->backlight, freed by acpi_video_dev_unregister_backlight() during device removal. If the work executes after acpi_video_bus_unregister_backlight() frees these resources, it causes a use-after-free when acpi_video_switch_brightness() dereferences device->brightness or device->backlight. Fix this by calling cancel_delayed_work_sync() for each device's switch_brightness_work in acpi_video_bus_remove_notify_handler() after removing t

Kernel Live Patch Security Notice

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: atlantic: eliminate double free in error handling logic Driver has a logic leak in ring data allocation/free, where aq_ring_free could be called multiple times on same ring, if system is under stress and got memory allocation error. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sctp: properly validate chunk size in sctp_sf_ootb() A size validation fix similar to that in Commit 50619dbf8db7 ('sctp: add size validation when walking chunks') is also required in sctp_sf_ootb() to address a crash reported by syzbot: BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in sctp_sf_o

btrfs: avoid potential out-of-bounds in btrfs_encode_fh()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: avoid potential out-of-bounds in btrfs_encode_fh() The function btrfs_encode_fh() does not properly account for the three cases it handles. Before writing to the file handle (fh), the function only returns to the user BTRFS_FID_SIZE_NON_CONNECTABLE (5 dwords, 20 bytes) or BTRFS_FID_SIZE_CONNECTABLE (8 dwords, 32 bytes). However, when a parent exists and the root ID of the parent and the inode are different, the function writes BTRFS_FID_SIZE_CONNECTABLE_ROOT (10 dwords, 40 bytes). If *max_len is not large enough, this write goes out of bounds because BTRFS_FID_SIZ

sctp: Fix MAC comparison to be constant-time

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sctp: Fix MAC comparison to be constant-time To prevent timing attacks, MACs need to be compared in constant time. Use the appropriate helper function for this.

Squashfs: reject negative file sizes in squashfs_read_inode()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Squashfs: reject negative file sizes in squashfs_read_inode() Syskaller reports a "WARNING in ovl_copy_up_file" in overlayfs. This warning is ultimately caused because the underlying Squashfs file system returns a file with a negative file size. This commit checks for a negative file size and returns EINVAL. [[email protected]: only need to check 64 bit quantity]

ext4: avoid potential buffer over-read in parse_apply_sb_mount_options()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: avoid potential buffer over-read in parse_apply_sb_mount_options() Unlike other strings in the ext4 superblock, we rely on tune2fs to make sure s_mount_opts is NUL terminated. Harden parse_apply_sb_mount_options() by treating s_mount_opts as a potential __nonstring.

xtensa: simdisk: add input size check in proc_write_simdisk

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xtensa: simdisk: add input size check in proc_write_simdisk A malicious user could pass an arbitrarily bad value to memdup_user_nul(), potentially causing kernel crash. This follows the same pattern as commit ee76746387f6 ("netdevsim: prevent bad user input in nsim_dev_health_break_write()")

ext4: guard against EA inode refcount underflow in xattr update

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: guard against EA inode refcount underflow in xattr update syzkaller found a path where ext4_xattr_inode_update_ref() reads an EA inode refcount that is already <= 0 and then applies ref_change (often -1). That lets the refcount underflow and we proceed with a bogus value, triggering errors like: EXT4-fs error: EA inode <n> ref underflow: ref_count=-1 ref_change=-1 EXT4-fs warning: ea_inode dec ref err=-117 Make the invariant explicit: if the current refcount is non-positive, treat this as on-disk corruption, emit ext4_error_inode(), and fail the operation with -

pwm: berlin: Fix wrong register in suspend/resume

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pwm: berlin: Fix wrong register in suspend/resume The 'enable' register should be BERLIN_PWM_EN rather than BERLIN_PWM_ENABLE, otherwise, the driver accesses wrong address, there will be cpu exception then kernel panic during suspend/resume.

pid: Add a judgment for ns null in pid_nr_ns

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pid: Add a judgment for ns null in pid_nr_ns __task_pid_nr_ns ns = task_active_pid_ns(current); pid_nr_ns(rcu_dereference(*task_pid_ptr(task, type)), ns); if (pid && ns->level <= pid->level) { Sometimes null is returned for task_active_pid_ns. Then it will trigger kernel panic in pid_nr_ns. For example: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000058 Mem abort info: ESR = 0x0000000096000007 EC = 0x25: DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits SET = 0, FnV = 0 EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 FSC = 0x07: level 3 translatio
