packet: use consistent hard_header_len in TX_RING send path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
packet: use consistent hard_header_len in TX_RING send path
tpacket_snd() reads dev->hard_header_len independently for skb
allocation and header construction in tpacket_fill_skb(). Concurrent
netdevice reconfiguration can therefore make the reserved headroom
smaller than the amount later pushed, or make copylen - hard_header_len
negative.
Snapshot hard_header_len once before processing ring frames and use it
for the frame limit, headroom allocation, copy length, and skb
construction. Pass the snapshot to tpacket_fill_skb().

net/packet: reset the MAC header on the packet-socket transmit path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/packet: reset the MAC header on the packet-socket transmit path
packet_parse_headers() resets the MAC header only for a SOCK_RAW frame
whose socket did not bind a protocol. A protocol-bound SOCK_RAW socket,
any SOCK_DGRAM frame, and the legacy SOCK_PACKET path therefore leave
skb->mac_header unset here.
For frames sent via __dev_queue_xmit() this is harmless: it resets the
MAC header unconditionally. But the packet-socket PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS
path uses dev_direct_xmit(), which does not, so the frame reaches
ndo_start_xmit() with the MAC header unset. A driver that reads
packet: synchronize pressure clearing with ring reconfiguration
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
packet: synchronize pressure clearing with ring reconfiguration
packet_set_ring() updates the RX ring state under sk_receive_queue.lock,
but used to publish the tpacket receive mode through po->prot_hook.func
after releasing that lock. packet_poll() and packet_recvmsg() can then
run the pressure clearing path after the ring has been cleared while
still seeing tpacket_rcv, causing __packet_rcv_has_room() to dereference
stale or NULL ring storage.
Move the existing receive hook assignment into the same
sk_receive_queue.lock section as the ring state update. Keep the

net: openvswitch: reallocate update replies for mismatched IDs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: openvswitch: reallocate update replies for mismatched IDs
ovs_flow_cmd_new() preallocates the optional reply skb before it takes
ovs_mutex and before it knows which existing flow will be updated.
That is normally fine because the skb is sized from the request flow
identifier. That identifier also becomes the inserted flow's identifier.
For updates, however, a request with a UFID may miss the UFID lookup and
then fall back to the flow key lookup. That lookup can legitimately find
an existing key-identified flow. UFIDs are optional and the flow key is
the primary ide
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: reject overly deep qdisc hierarchies
Deep qdisc hierarchies can lead to excessive recursion in qdisc tree
walkers and exhaust the kernel stack. The existing loop check does not
cover the create-and-graft path, so a hierarchy can still be extended by
creating a new child qdisc below an already deep parent.
Store the hierarchy depth in struct Qdisc and update it when qdiscs are
grafted. Reject new child qdiscs once the parent is already at the maximum
allowed depth.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
inet: frags: publish queues before arming timer
inet_frag_create() arms the fragment queue timer before inserting the
queue into the fqdir rhashtable. If the namespace fragment timeout is
zero or negative, the timer can run before the queue is published.
The timer callback then marks the queue complete, tries to remove a node
that is not in the hash table yet, and drops the anticipated hash
reference. Creation can subsequently publish the completed queue without
restoring that reference, leaving a stale hash node after the caller drops
the remaining reference.

netfilter: ebt_nflog: pin the NFLOG backend
nf_log_unregister() runs after the per-net teardown so its final RCU
grace period also drains readers that obtained the logger from a per-net
binding. However, ebt_nflog passes an explicit ULOG log type to
nf_log_packet() without holding a reference on the selected logger module,
unlike the xt_NFLOG and nft_log frontends.
An ebtables nflog rule can therefore remain callable while nfnetlink_log
is unloaded. The resulting interleaving is:

net: bridge: mrp: fix uninitialised bytes on the wire
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: mrp: fix uninitialised bytes on the wire
br_mrp_alloc_test_skb() builds MRP test frames on an skb from
dev_alloc_skb(), which does not clear the linear data area. On the MRA
ring-role branch the sub-option TLV header is appended with
sub_tlv = skb_put(skb, sizeof(*sub_tlv));
sub_tlv->type = BR_MRP_SUB_TLV_HEADER_TEST_AUTO_MGR;
so sub_tlv->length is never written, and the two trailing alignment bytes
are appended with a bare skb_put() that does not clear them either. The
neighbouring oui and sub_opt regions are explicitly zeroed, so three

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
futex: Prevent robust futex exit race some more
A robust futex unlock stores 0 over the whole futex value - wiping
FUTEX_WAITERS - and wakes a single waiter. That wakeup is a one-shot
notification: the protocol relies on its recipient to either acquire the
futex (and eventually unlock while aware of the remaining contention) or
re-arm FUTEX_WAITERS before sleeping again. If the woken waiter is killed
before it can do either, the kernel must jump in and wake the next task
down the line.
This is a known complication of the futex protocol with a previous
partial fix in commi
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: Fix fib_nlmsg_size() for RTA_VIA nexthops
fib_nlmsg_size() still estimates nexthop space as if every gateway is
encoded as an IPv4 RTA_GATEWAY attribute. IPv4 routes can also carry an
IPv6 gateway, which fib_nexthop_info() dumps as RTA_VIA.
As a result, route notifications can allocate an skb that is too small.
fib_dump_info() then fails with -EMSGSIZE and rtmsg_fib() hits the
WARN_ON() that marks such failures as a fib_nlmsg_size() bug. With
panic_on_warn set, this becomes a kernel panic.
Mirror the actual nexthop dump layout in fib_nlmsg_size(): account for

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: fix use-after-free in fib_nhc_update_mtu()
fib_nhc_update_mtu() walks the nexthop exception table under RTNL, but
RTNL does not serialize this walk with PMTU exception updates. The walk
uses rcu_dereference_protected() with a constant true condition without
holding fnhe_lock.
The following interleaving can therefore occur:

serial: 8250_dma: Clear stale RX state on shutdown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: 8250_dma: Clear stale RX state on shutdown
serial8250_release_dma() terminates RX DMA and releases the channel, but
leaves rx_running set. If the port is closed while an RX transfer is
active, the stale state remains while rxchan is NULL until the channel is
requested again on the next open.
The DesignWare BUSY workaround added by commit a7b9ce39fbe4
("serial: 8250_dw: Ensure BUSY is deasserted") calls
serial8250_rx_dma_flush() from the LCR write path during startup. This
happens before serial8250_request_dma() obtains a new RX channel. On

serial: 8250_of: clear stuck empty-FIFO RX-timeout on LPC32xx
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: 8250_of: clear stuck empty-FIFO RX-timeout on LPC32xx
The NXP LPC32xx UART (PORT_LPC3220) can latch an RX character-timeout
interrupt while the RX FIFO is empty: IIR reports UART_IIR_RX_TIMEOUT
(0x0c) but LSR.DR is clear. A character timeout is only cleared by
reading RHR, but serial8250_rx_chars() reads RHR only when LSR.DR is
set, so nothing ever clears the condition. The interrupt is
level-triggered and re-fires immediately, so on a single-core ARM926
the resulting interrupt storm livelocks the CPU.
It is reproducible when userspace repeatedly opens the front-pa
staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in rtw_get_wpa_ie()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in rtw_get_wpa_ie()
rtw_get_wpa_ie() reads bytes at fixed offsets into a vendor-specific
information element without checking that the element is long enough,
causing an out-of-bounds read for a short trailing IE.
The function locates a vendor-specific IE (EID 221) with rtw_get_ie()
and then compares a 4-byte OUI+type at pbuf + 2 and reads a 2-byte
version word at pbuf + 6. Those accesses require the IE body to be at
least 6 bytes, but rtw_get_ie() only guarantees that the element fits
within the buffer; it does not enforce a minimum body l
staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in WMM_param_handler()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in WMM_param_handler()
WMM_param_handler() copies a fixed-size WMM parameter element out of a
received information element without checking that the element is long
enough, causing an out-of-bounds read for a short WMM IE.
The handler reads sizeof(struct WMM_para_element) (18) bytes at
pIE->data + 6, so it requires pIE->length to be at least 24
(WLAN_WMM_LEN), but it never validates the length. Two of its three
callers reach it after matching only the WMM OUI: OnAssocRsp() in
rtw_mlme_ext.c matches a 6-byte OUI, and join_cmd_hdl() matches a

staging: rtl8723bs: fix missing shared-key auth challenge length check
The WEP shared-key authentication handler uses the challenge-text
element's attacker-controlled length without checking it against the
fixed 128-byte chg_txt buffer.
In OnAuthClient() the length from rtw_get_ie() - up to 255 - is used
to perform memcpy() into the 128-byte pmlmeinfo->chg_txt, so a
malicious AP sending a malformed WLAN_EID_CHALLENGE element can
overflow/underfill chg_txt by up to 127 bytes. It is reachable over the

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: validate monitor transmit frame lengths
rtw_cfg80211_monitor_if_xmit_entry() removes the radiotap header and
then reads the 802.11 frame control field without checking that a base
802.11 header remains.
The data path also pulls the calculated 802.11, QoS and SNAP header
span before confirming that the skb contains it. A truncated frame can
therefore cause out-of-bounds reads or leave insufficient data for the
Ethernet address writes.

misc: fastrpc: Remove buffer from list prior to unmap operation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
misc: fastrpc: Remove buffer from list prior to unmap operation
fastrpc_req_munmap_impl() is called to unmap any buffer. The buffer is
getting removed from the list after it is unmapped from DSP. This can
create potential race conditions if multiple threads invoke unmap
concurrently, where one thread may remove the entry from the list while
another thread's unmap operation is still ongoing.
Fix this by removing the buffer entry from the list before calling the
unmap operation. If the unmap fails, the entry is re-added to the list
so that userspace can retry the unmap, or a

ALSA: usx2y: bound the hwdep mmap fault offset
snd_us428ctls_vm_fault() turns the faulting page offset into a kernel
address with no bound of any kind:
offset = vmf->pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT;
vaddr = (char *)(...)->us428ctls_sharedmem + offset;
page = virt_to_page(vaddr);
get_page(page);
vmf->page = page;
return 0;
snd_us428ctls_mmap() checks only the length of the mapping, never the
offset, and us428ctls_sharedmem is a single page from
alloc_pages_exact(). For a character device file_mmap_size_max()
returns ULONG_MAX, so the mm layer imposes no ceiling either. Every
perf/core: Fix group leader use-after-free after sibling detach
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/core: Fix group leader use-after-free after sibling detach
perf_group_detach() handles leader and sibling detach differently. When the
group leader is detached, all siblings are promoted to singleton events and
their group_leader pointer is reset to themselves. When a sibling is
detached, it is removed from the leader's sibling_list, but its
group_leader pointer is left pointing at the old leader.
That is harmless when the sibling is being closed and freed immediately, as
in the DETACH_DEAD path. It is not safe when the sibling is detached but
kept alive, such as duri
