fbcon: Avoid OOB font access if console rotation fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbcon: Avoid OOB font access if console rotation fails
Clear the font buffer if the reallocation during console rotation fails
in fbcon_rotate_font(). The putcs implementations for the rotated buffer
will return early in this case. See [1] for an example.
Currently, fbcon_rotate_font() keeps the old buffer, which is too small
for the rotated font. Printing to the rotated console with a high-enough
character code will overflow the font buffer.

mtd: spi-nor: debugfs: fix out-of-bounds read in spi_nor_params_show()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: spi-nor: debugfs: fix out-of-bounds read in spi_nor_params_show()
Sashiko noticed an out-of-bounds read [1].
In spi_nor_params_show(), the snor_f_names array is passed to
spi_nor_print_flags() using sizeof(snor_f_names).
Since snor_f_names is an array of pointers, sizeof() returns the total
number of bytes occupied by the pointers
(element_count * sizeof(void *))
rather than the element count itself. On 64-bit systems, this makes the
passed length 8x larger than intended.
Inside spi_nor_print_flags(), the 'names_len' argument is used to
bounds-check the 'names' arr
RDMA/vmw_pvrdma: Fix double free on pvrdma_alloc_ucontext() error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/vmw_pvrdma: Fix double free on pvrdma_alloc_ucontext() error path
Sashiko points out that pvrdma_uar_free() is already called within
pvrdma_dealloc_ucontext(), so calling it before triggers a double free.
wifi: rsi: fix kthread lifetime race between self-exit and external-stop
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rsi: fix kthread lifetime race between self-exit and external-stop
RSI driver use both self-exit(kthread_complete_and_exit) and external-stop
(kthread_stop) when killing a kthread. Generally, kthread_stop() is called
first, and in this case, no particular issues occur.
However, in rare instances where kthread_complete_and_exit() is called
first and then kthread_stop() is called, a UAF occurs because the kthread
object, which has already exited and been freed, is accessed again.
Therefore, to prevent this with minimal modification, you must remove
kthread_stop() and
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: virtio_bt: validate rx pkt_type header length
virtbt_rx_handle() reads the leading pkt_type byte from the RX skb
and forwards the remainder to hci_recv_frame() for every
event/ACL/SCO/ISO type, without checking that the remaining payload
is at least the fixed HCI header for that type.
After the preceding patch bounds the backend-supplied used.len to
[1, VIRTBT_RX_BUF_SIZE], a one-byte completion still reaches
hci_recv_frame() with skb->len already pulled to 0. If the byte
happened to be HCI_ACLDATA_PKT, the ACL-vs-ISO classification
fast-path in hci_dev_classify
smb/client: fix out-of-bounds read in symlink_data()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb/client: fix out-of-bounds read in symlink_data()
Since smb2_check_message() returns success without length validation for
the symlink error response, in symlink_data() it is possible for
iov->iov_len to be smaller than sizeof(struct smb2_err_rsp). If the buffer
only contains the base SMB2 header (64 bytes), accessing
err->ErrorContextCount (at offset 66) or err->ByteCount later in
symlink_data() will cause an out-of-bounds read.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sound: ua101: fix division by zero at probe
Add a missing sanity check for bNrChannels in detect_usb_format()
to prevent a division by zero in playback_urb_complete() and
capture_urb_complete().
USB core does not validate class-specific descriptor fields such
as bNrChannels, so drivers must verify them before use. If a
device provides bNrChannels = 0, frame_bytes becomes zero and is
later used as a divisor in the URB completion handlers, leading
to a kernel crash.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/mlx4: Fix mis-use of RCU in mlx4_srq_event()
Sashiko points out the radix_tree itself is RCU safe, but nothing ever
frees the mlx4_srq struct with RCU, and it isn't even accessed within the
RCU critical section. It also will crash if an event is delivered before
the srq object is finished initializing.
Use the spinlock since it isn't easy to make RCU work, use
refcount_inc_not_zero() to protect against partially initialized objects,
and order the refcount_set() to be after the srq is fully initialized.
wifi: brcmfmac: Fix potential use-after-free issue when stopping watchdog task
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmfmac: Fix potential use-after-free issue when stopping watchdog task
Watchdog task might end between send_sig() and kthread_stop() calls, what
results in the use-after-free issue. Fix this by increasing watchdog task
reference count before calling send_sig() and dropping it by switching to
kthread_stop_put().
ASoC: SOF: Don't allow pointer operations on unconfigured streams
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: SOF: Don't allow pointer operations on unconfigured streams
When reporting the pointer for a compressed stream we report the current
I/O frame position by dividing the position by the number of channels
multiplied by the number of container bytes. These values default to 0 and
are only configured as part of setting the stream parameters so this allows
a divide by zero to be configured. Validate that they are non zero,
returning an error if not
RDMA/mlx4: Fix resource leak on error in mlx4_ib_create_srq()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/mlx4: Fix resource leak on error in mlx4_ib_create_srq()
Sashiko points out that mlx4_srq_alloc() was not undone during error
unwind, add the missing call to mlx4_srq_free().
ipmi: Add limits to event and receive message requests
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmi: Add limits to event and receive message requests
The driver would just fetch events and receive messages until the
BMC said it was done. To avoid issues with BMCs that never say they are
done, add a limit of 10 fetches at a time.
In addition, an si interface has an attn state it can return from the
hardware which is supposed to cause a flag fetch to see if the driver
needs to fetch events or message or a few other things. If the attn
bit gets stuck, it's a similar problem. So allow messages in between
flag fetches so the driver itself doesn't get stuck.

f2fs: fix fsck inconsistency caused by FGGC of node block
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix fsck inconsistency caused by FGGC of node block
During FGGC node block migration, fsck may incorrectly treat the
migrated node block as fsync-written data.
The reproduction scenario:
root@vm:/mnt/f2fs# seq 1 2048 | xargs -n 1 ./test_sync // write inline inode and sync
root@vm:/mnt/f2fs# rm -f 1
root@vm:/mnt/f2fs# sync
root@vm:/mnt/f2fs# f2fs_io gc_range // move data block in sync mode and not write CP
SPO, "fsck --dry-run" find inode has already checkpointed but still
with DENT_BIT_SHIFT set
The root cause is that GC does not clear the dentry mark and fsync
x86/CPU/AMD: Prevent improper isolation of shared resources in Zen2's op cache
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/CPU/AMD: Prevent improper isolation of shared resources in Zen2's op cache
Make sure resources are not improperly shared in the op cache and
cause instruction corruption this way.
exit: prevent preemption of oopsing TASK_DEAD task
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
exit: prevent preemption of oopsing TASK_DEAD task
When an already-exiting task oopses, make_task_dead() currently calls
do_task_dead() with preemption enabled. That is forbidden:
do_task_dead() calls __schedule(), which has a comment saying "WARNING:
must be called with preemption disabled!".
If an oopsing task is preempted in do_task_dead(), between becoming
TASK_DEAD and entering the scheduler explicitly, bad things happen:
finish_task_switch() assumes that once the scheduler has switched away
from a TASK_DEAD task, the task can never run again and its stack is no
long
ipv6: xfrm6: release dst on error in xfrm6_rcv_encap()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: xfrm6: release dst on error in xfrm6_rcv_encap()
xfrm6_rcv_encap() performs an IPv6 route lookup when the skb does not
already have a dst attached. ip6_route_input_lookup() returns a
referenced dst entry even when the lookup resolves to an error route.
If dst->error is set, xfrm6_rcv_encap() drops the skb without attaching
the dst to the skb and without releasing the reference returned by the
lookup. Repeated packets hitting this path therefore leak dst entries.
Release the dst before jumping to the drop path.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: pm: ADD_ADDR rtx: free sk if last
When an ADD_ADDR is retransmitted, the sk is held in sk_reset_timer(),
and released at the end.
If at that moment, it was the last reference being held, the sk would
not be freed. sock_put() should then be called instead of __sock_put().
But that's not enough: if it is the last reference, sock_put() will call
sk_free(), which will end up calling sk_stop_timer_sync() on the same
timer, and waiting indefinitely to finish. So it is needed to mark that
the timer is done at the end of the timer handler when it has not been
rescheduled,
hfsplus: fix uninit-value by validating catalog record size
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hfsplus: fix uninit-value by validating catalog record size
Syzbot reported a KMSAN uninit-value issue in hfsplus_strcasecmp(). The
root cause is that hfs_brec_read() doesn't validate that the on-disk
record size matches the expected size for the record type being read.
When mounting a corrupted filesystem, hfs_brec_read() may read less data
than expected. For example, when reading a catalog thread record, the
debug output showed:
HFSPLUS_BREC_READ: rec_len=520, fd->entrylength=26
HFSPLUS_BREC_READ: WARNING - entrylength (26) < rec_len (520) - PARTIAL READ!

mptcp: fix scheduling with atomic in timestamp sockopt
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: fix scheduling with atomic in timestamp sockopt
Using lock_sock_fast() (atomic context) around sock_set_timestamp()
and sock_set_timestamping() is unsafe, as both helpers can sleep.
Replace lock_sock_fast() with sleepable lock_sock()/release_sock()
to avoid scheduling while atomic panic.
usb: usblp: fix uninitialized heap leak via LPGETSTATUS ioctl
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: usblp: fix uninitialized heap leak via LPGETSTATUS ioctl
Just like in a previous problem in this driver, usblp_ctrl_msg() will
collapse the usb_control_msg() return value to 0/-errno, discarding the
actual number of bytes transferred.
Ideally that short command should be detected and error out, but many
printers are known to send "incorrect" responses back so we can't just
do that.
statusbuf is kmalloc(8) at probe time and never filled before the first
LPGETSTATUS ioctl.
usblp_read_status() requests 1 byte. If a malicious printer responds
with zero bytes, *statusbuf
