agp/amd64: Fix broken error propagation in agp_amd64_probe()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
agp/amd64: Fix broken error propagation in agp_amd64_probe()
A NULL pointer dereference was observed in the AMD64 AGP driver when
running in a virtualized environment (e.g. qemu/kvm) without a physical
AMD northbridge. The crash occurs in amd64_fetch_size() when attempting
to dereference the pointer returned by node_to_amd_nb(0).
The root cause of this crash is broken error propagation in
agp_amd64_probe(): When no AMD northbridges are found, cache_nbs()
correctly returns -ENODEV. However, the probe function erroneously
checks the return value against exactly -1, rather th
nilfs2: reject zero bd_oblocknr in nilfs_ioctl_mark_blocks_dirty()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: reject zero bd_oblocknr in nilfs_ioctl_mark_blocks_dirty()
nilfs_ioctl_mark_blocks_dirty() uses bd_oblocknr to detect dead blocks
by comparing it with the current block number bd_blocknr. If they differ,
the block is considered dead and skipped.
However, bd_oblocknr should never be 0 since block 0 typically stores the
primary superblock and is never a valid GC target block. A corrupted ioctl
request with bd_oblocknr set to 0 causes the comparison to incorrectly
match when the lookup returns -ENOENT and sets bd_blocknr to 0, bypassing
the dead block check and callin
ocfs2/dlm: fix off-by-one in dlm_match_regions() region comparison
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2/dlm: fix off-by-one in dlm_match_regions() region comparison
The local-vs-remote region comparison loop uses '<=' instead of '<',
causing it to read one entry past the valid range of qr_regions. The
other loops in the same function correctly use '<'.
Fix the loop condition to use '<' for consistency and correctness.
tty: hvc_iucv: fix off-by-one in number of supported devices
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: hvc_iucv: fix off-by-one in number of supported devices
MAX_HVC_IUCV_LINES == HVC_ALLOC_TTY_ADAPTERS == 8.
This is the number of entries in:
static struct hvc_iucv_private *hvc_iucv_table[MAX_HVC_IUCV_LINES];
Sometimes hvc_iucv_table[] is limited by:
(a) if (num > hvc_iucv_devices) // for error detection
or
(b) for (i = 0; i < hvc_iucv_devices; i++) // in 2 places
(so these 2 don't agree; second one appears to be correct to me.)
hvc_iucv_devices can be 0..8. This is a counter.
(c) if (hvc_iucv_devices > MAX_HVC_IUCV_LINES)
If hvc_iucv_devices == 8, (a) allows the
scsi: sg: Resolve soft lockup issue when opening /dev/sgX
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: sg: Resolve soft lockup issue when opening /dev/sgX
The parameter def_reserved_size defines the default buffer size reserved
for each Sg_fd and should be restricted to a range between 0 and 1,048,576
(see https://tldp.org/HOWTO/SCSI-Generic-HOWTO/proc.html). Although the
function sg_proc_write_dressz enforces this limit, it is possible to bypass
it by directly modifying the module parameter as shown below, which then
causes a soft lockup:
echo -1 > /sys/module/sg/parameters/def_reserved_size
exec 4<> /dev/sg0
watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#5 stuck for 26 seconds!
mailbox: mailbox-test: free channels on probe error
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mailbox: mailbox-test: free channels on probe error
On probe error, free the previously obtained channels. This not only
prevents a leak, but also UAF scenarios because the client structure
will be removed nonetheless because it was allocated with devm.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mailbox: add sanity check for channel array
Fail gracefully if there is no channel array attached to the mailbox
controller. Otherwise the later dereference will cause an OOPS which
might not be seen because mailbox controllers might instantiate very
early. Remove the comment explaining the obvious while here.
mailbox: mailbox-test: don't free the reused channel
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mailbox: mailbox-test: don't free the reused channel
The RX channel can be aliased to the TX channel if it has a different
MMIO. This special case needs to be handled when freeing the channels
otherwise a double-free occurs.

audit: fix incorrect inheritable capability in CAPSET records
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
audit: fix incorrect inheritable capability in CAPSET records
__audit_log_capset() records the effective capability set into the
inheritable field due to a copy-paste error. Every CAPSET audit
record therefore reports cap_pi (process inheritable) with the value
of cap_effective instead of cap_inheritable.
This silently corrupts audit data used for compliance and forensic
analysis: an attacker who modifies inheritable capabilities to
prepare for a privilege-escalating exec would have the change masked
in the audit trail.
The bug has been present since the original introduc
btrfs: only release the dirty pages io tree after successful writes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipv6: mcast: Fix use-after-free when processing MLD queries
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: mcast: Fix use-after-free when processing MLD queries
When processing an MLD query, a pointer to the multicast group address
is retrieved when initially parsing the packet. This pointer is later
dereferenced without being reloaded despite the fact that the skb header
might have been reallocated following the pskb_may_pull() calls, leading
to a use-after-free [1].
Fix by copying the multicast group address when the packet is initially
parsed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvs: clear the svc scheduler ptr early on edit
ip_vs_edit_service() while unbinding the old scheduler clears
the svc->scheduler ptr after the scheduler module initiates
RCU callbacks. This can cause packets to use the old
scheduler at the time when svc->sched_data is already freed
after RCU grace period.
Fix it by clearing the ptr early in ip_vs_unbind_scheduler(),
before the done_service method schedules any RCU callbacks.
Also, if the new scheduler fails to initialize when replacing
the old scheduler, try to restore the old scheduler while still
returning the error cod
netfilter: conntrack_irc: fix possible out-of-bounds read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: conntrack_irc: fix possible out-of-bounds read
When parsing fails after we've matched the command string we
should bail out instead of trying to match a different command.
This helper should be deprecated, given prevalence of TLS I doubt it has
any relevance in 2026.
netfilter: nft_ct: bail out on template ct in get eval
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_ct: bail out on template ct in get eval
I noticed this issue while looking at a historic syzbot report [1].
A rule like the one below is enough to trigger the bug:
table ip t {
chain pre {
type filter hook prerouting priority raw;
ct zone set 1
ct original saddr 1.2.3.4 accept
}
}
The first expression attaches a per-cpu template ct via
nft_ct_set_zone_eval() (nf_ct_tmpl_alloc -> kzalloc, tuple is all
zero, nf_ct_l3num(ct) == 0). The next expression then calls
nft_ct_get_eval() on the same skb, tre
l2tp: pppol2tp: hold reference to session in pppol2tp_ioctl()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
l2tp: pppol2tp: hold reference to session in pppol2tp_ioctl()
pppol2tp_ioctl() read sock->sk->sk_user_data directly without any
locks or reference counting. If a controllable sleep was induced during
copy_from_user() (e.g. via a userfaultfd page fault sleep), a concurrent
socket close could trigger pppol2tp_session_close() asynchronously. This
frees the l2tp_session structure via the l2tp_session_del_work workqueue.
Upon resuming, the ioctl thread dereferences the stale session pointer,
resulting in a Use-After-Free (UAF).
Fix this by securely fetching the session refere
Bluetooth: RFCOMM: hold listener socket in rfcomm_connect_ind()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: RFCOMM: hold listener socket in rfcomm_connect_ind()
rfcomm_get_sock_by_channel() scans rfcomm_sk_list under the list lock,
but returns the selected listener after dropping that lock without
taking a reference. rfcomm_connect_ind() then locks the listener,
queues a child socket on it, and may notify it after unlocking it.
The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the
order within that path:
rfcomm_connect_ind(): listener close:
1. Find parent in 1. close() enters

Bluetooth: RFCOMM: validate skb length in MCC handlers
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: RFCOMM: validate skb length in MCC handlers
The RFCOMM MCC handlers cast skb->data to protocol-specific structs
without validating skb->len first. A malicious remote device can send
truncated MCC frames and trigger out-of-bounds reads in these handlers.
Fix this by using skb_pull_data() to validate and access the required
data before dereferencing it.
rfcomm_recv_rpn() requires special handling since ETSI TS 07.10 allows
1-byte RPN requests. Handle this by validating only the DLCI byte first,
and validating the full struct only when len > 1.
Bluetooth: bnep: reject short frames before parsing
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: bnep: reject short frames before parsing
A BNEP peer can send a short BNEP SDU. bnep_rx_frame() reads the
packet type byte immediately and, for control packets, reads the control
opcode and setup UUID-size byte before proving that those bytes are
present. bnep_rx_control() also dereferences the control opcode without
rejecting an empty control payload.
Use skb_pull_data() for the fixed fields in bnep_rx_frame() so a NULL
return gates each dereference. Split the control handler so the frame
path can pass an opcode that has already been pulled, and keep the
byte-b
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: restrict IPOPT_SSRR and IPOPT_LSRR options
This patch restricts setting Loose Source and Record Route (LSRR)
and Strict Source and Record Route (SSRR) IP options to users
with CAP_NET_RAW capability.
This prevents unprivileged applications from forcing packets to route
through attacker-controlled nodes to leak TCP ISN and possibly other
protocol information.
While LSRR and SSRR are commonly filtered in many network environments,
they may still be supported and forwarded along some network paths.
