In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Completely fix fcport double free
In qla24xx_els_dcmd_iocb() sp->free is set to qla2x00_els_dcmd_sp_free().
When an error happens, this function is called by qla2x00_sp_release(),
when kref_put() releases the first and the last reference.
qla2x00_els_dcmd_sp_free() frees fcport by calling qla2x00_free_fcport().
Doing it one more time after kref_put() is a bad idea.
scsi: hisi_sas: Fix NULL pointer exception during user_scan()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: hisi_sas: Fix NULL pointer exception during user_scan()
user_scan() invokes updated sas_user_scan() for channel 0, and if
successful, iteratively scans remaining channels (1 to shost->max_channel)
via scsi_scan_host_selected() in commit 37c4e72b0651 ("scsi: Fix
sas_user_scan() to handle wildcard and multi-channel scans"). However,
hisi_sas supports only one channel, and the current value of max_channel is
1. sas_user_scan() for channel 1 will trigger the following NULL pointer
exception:

libceph: Fix potential out-of-bounds access in ceph_handle_auth_reply()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: Fix potential out-of-bounds access in ceph_handle_auth_reply()
This patch fixes an out-of-bounds access in ceph_handle_auth_reply()
that can be triggered by a message of type CEPH_MSG_AUTH_REPLY. In
ceph_handle_auth_reply(), the value of the payload_len field of such a
message is stored in a variable of type int. A value greater than
INT_MAX leads to an integer overflow and is interpreted as a negative
value. This leads to decrementing the pointer address by this value and
subsequently accessing it because ceph_decode_need() only checks that
the memory access does
libceph: Use u32 for non-negative values in ceph_monmap_decode()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: Use u32 for non-negative values in ceph_monmap_decode()
This patch fixes unnecessary implicit conversions that change signedness
of blob_len and num_mon in ceph_monmap_decode().
Currently blob_len and num_mon are (signed) int variables. They are used
to hold values that are always non-negative and get assigned in
ceph_decode_32_safe(), which is meant to assign u32 values. Both
variables are subsequently used as unsigned values, and the value of
num_mon is further assigned to monmap->num_mon, which is of type u32.
Therefore, both variables should be of type u32. Thi
staging: rtl8723bs: properly validate the data in rtw_get_ie_ex()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: properly validate the data in rtw_get_ie_ex()
Just like in commit 154828bf9559 ("staging: rtl8723bs: fix out-of-bounds
read in rtw_get_ie() parser"), we don't trust the data in the frame so
we should check the length better before acting on it
staging: rtl8723bs: fix potential out-of-bounds read in rtw_restruct_wmm_ie
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: fix potential out-of-bounds read in rtw_restruct_wmm_ie
The current code checks 'i + 5 < in_len' at the end of the if statement.
However, it accesses 'in_ie[i + 5]' before that check, which can lead
to an out-of-bounds read. Move the length check to the beginning of the
conditional to ensure the index is within bounds before accessing the
array.
net/tcp-md5: Fix MAC comparison to be constant-time
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/tcp-md5: 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.
nouveau/dpcd: return EBUSY for aux xfer if the device is asleep
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

If we have runtime suspended, and userspace wants to use /dev/drm_dp_*
then just tell it the device is busy instead of crashing in the GSP
code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ncsi: fix skb leak in error paths
Early return paths in NCSI RX and AEN handlers fail to release
the received skb, resulting in a memory leak.
Specifically, ncsi_aen_handler() returns on invalid AEN packets
without consuming the skb. Similarly, ncsi_rcv_rsp() exits early
when failing to resolve the NCSI device, response handler, or
request, leaving the skb unfreed.
x86/apic: Disable x2apic on resume if the kernel expects so
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/apic: Disable x2apic on resume if the kernel expects so
When resuming from s2ram, firmware may re-enable x2apic mode, which may have
been disabled by the kernel during boot either because it doesn't support IRQ
remapping or for other reasons. This causes the kernel to continue using the
xapic interface, while the hardware is in x2apic mode, which causes hangs.
This happens on defconfig + bare metal + s2ram.
Fix this in lapic_resume() by disabling x2apic if the kernel expects it to be
disabled, i.e. when x2apic_mode = 0.
The ACPI v6.6 spec, Section 16.3 [1] says firmwa
smb: client: fix in-place encryption corruption in SMB2_write()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix in-place encryption corruption in SMB2_write()
SMB2_write() places write payload in iov[1..n] as part of rq_iov.
smb3_init_transform_rq() pointer-shares rq_iov, so crypt_message()
encrypts iov[1] in-place, replacing the original plaintext with
ciphertext. On a replayable error, the retry sends the same iov[1]
which now contains ciphertext instead of the original data,
resulting in corruption.
The corruption is most likely to be observed when connections are
unstable, as reconnects trigger write retries that re-send the
already-encrypted data.

btrfs: fix transaction abort when snapshotting received subvolumes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix transaction abort when snapshotting received subvolumes
Currently a user can trigger a transaction abort by snapshotting a
previously received snapshot a bunch of times until we reach a
BTRFS_UUID_KEY_RECEIVED_SUBVOL item overflow (the maximum item size we
can store in a leaf). This is very likely not common in practice, but
if it happens, it turns the filesystem into RO mode. The snapshot, send
and set_received_subvol and subvol_setflags (used by receive) don't
require CAP_SYS_ADMIN, just inode_owner_or_capable(). A malicious user
could use this to turn a filesy
btrfs: fix transaction abort on set received ioctl due to item overflow
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix transaction abort on set received ioctl due to item overflow
If the set received ioctl fails due to an item overflow when attempting to
add the BTRFS_UUID_KEY_RECEIVED_SUBVOL we have to abort the transaction
since we did some metadata updates before.
This means that if a user calls this ioctl with the same received UUID
field for a lot of subvolumes, we will hit the overflow, trigger the
transaction abort and turn the filesystem into RO mode. A malicious user
could exploit this, and this ioctl does not even requires that a user
has admin privileges (CAP_SYS_ADMI
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: gyro: mpu3050-core: fix pm_runtime error handling
The return value of pm_runtime_get_sync() is not checked, allowing
the driver to access hardware that may fail to resume. The device
usage count is also unconditionally incremented. Use
pm_runtime_resume_and_get() which propagates errors and avoids
incrementing the usage count on failure.
In preenable, add pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() on set_8khz_samplerate()
failure since postdisable does not run when preenable fails.
iio: light: bh1780: fix PM runtime leak on error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: light: bh1780: fix PM runtime leak on error path
Move pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() before the error check to ensure
the PM runtime reference count is always decremented after
pm_runtime_get_sync(), regardless of whether the read operation
succeeds or fails.
usb: gadget: f_subset: Fix unbalanced refcnt in geth_free
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_subset: Fix unbalanced refcnt in geth_free
geth_alloc() increments the reference count, but geth_free() fails to
decrement it. This prevents the configuration of attributes via configfs
after unlinking the function.
Decrement the reference count in geth_free() to ensure proper cleanup.
usb: gadget: f_rndis: Protect RNDIS options with mutex
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_rndis: Protect RNDIS options with mutex
The class/subclass/protocol options are suspectible to race conditions
as they can be accessed concurrently through configfs.
Use existing mutex to protect these options. This issue was identified
during code inspection.
comedi: Reinit dev->spinlock between attachments to low-level drivers
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
comedi: Reinit dev->spinlock between attachments to low-level drivers
`struct comedi_device` is the main controlling structure for a COMEDI
device created by the COMEDI subsystem. It contains a member `spinlock`
containing a spin-lock that is initialized by the COMEDI subsystem, but
is reserved for use by a low-level driver attached to the COMEDI device
(at least since commit 25436dc9d84f ("Staging: comedi: remove RT

Some COMEDI devices (those created on initialization of the COMEDI
subsystem when the "comedi.comedi_num_legacy_minors" parameter is
non-zero) can b
ipv6: prevent possible UaF in addrconf_permanent_addr()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: prevent possible UaF in addrconf_permanent_addr()
The mentioned helper try to warn the user about an exceptional
condition, but the message is delivered too late, accessing the ipv6
after its possible deletion.
Reorder the statement to avoid the possible UaF; while at it, place the
warning outside the idev->lock as it needs no protection.
