In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
comedi: Flush partial mappings in error case
If some remap_pfn_range() calls succeeded before one failed, we still have
buffer pages mapped into the userspace page tables when we drop the buffer
reference with comedi_buf_map_put(bm). The userspace mappings are only
cleaned up later in the mmap error path.
Fix it by explicitly flushing all mappings in our VMA on the error path.
See commit 79a61cc3fc04 ("mm: avoid leaving partial pfn mappings around in
error case").
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Prevent a potential integer overflow
If the tag length is >= U32_MAX - 3 then the "length + 4" addition
can result in an integer overflow. Address this by splitting the
decoding into several steps so that decode_cb_compound4res() does
not have to perform arithmetic on the unsafe length value.
um: Fix potential integer overflow during physmem setup
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
um: Fix potential integer overflow during physmem setup
This issue happens when the real map size is greater than LONG_MAX,
which can be easily triggered on UML/i386.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xen/netfront: fix crash when removing device
When removing a netfront device directly after a suspend/resume cycle
it might happen that the queues have not been setup again, causing a
crash during the attempt to stop the queues another time.
Fix that by checking the queues are existing before trying to stop
them.
This is XSA-465 / CVE-2024-53240.
A cross-privilege Spectre v2 vulnerability allows attackers to bypass all deployed mitigations, including the recent Fine(IBT), and to leak arbitrary Linux kernel memory on Intel systems.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
initramfs: avoid filename buffer overrun
The initramfs filename field is defined in
Documentation/driver-api/early-userspace/buffer-format.rst as:
37 cpio_file := ALGN(4) + cpio_header + filename + "\0" + ALGN(4) + data
...
55 ============= ================== =========================
56 Field name Field size Meaning
57 ============= ================== =========================
...
70 c_namesize 8 bytes Length of filename, including final \0
When extracting an initramfs cpio archive, the kernel's do_name() path
handler assumes a zero-terminat
netfilter: ipset: add missing range check in bitmap_ip_uadt
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ipset: add missing range check in bitmap_ip_uadt
When tb[IPSET_ATTR_IP_TO] is not present but tb[IPSET_ATTR_CIDR] exists,
the values of ip and ip_to are slightly swapped. Therefore, the range check
for ip should be done later, but this part is missing and it seems that the
vulnerability occurs.
So we should add missing range checks and remove unnecessary range checks.
netlink: terminate outstanding dump on socket close
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netlink: terminate outstanding dump on socket close
Netlink supports iterative dumping of data. It provides the families
the following ops:
- start - (optional) kicks off the dumping process
- dump - actual dump helper, keeps getting called until it returns 0
- done - (optional) pairs with .start, can be used for cleanup
The whole process is asynchronous and the repeated calls to .dump
don't actually happen in a tight loop, but rather are triggered
in response to recvmsg() on the socket.
This gives the user full control over the dump, but also means that
the user can
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: kTLS, Fix incorrect page refcounting
The kTLS tx handling code is using a mix of get_page() and
page_ref_inc() APIs to increment the page reference. But on the release
path (mlx5e_ktls_tx_handle_resync_dump_comp()), only put_page() is used.
This is an issue when using pages from large folios: the get_page()
references are stored on the folio page while the page_ref_inc()
references are stored directly in the given page. On release the folio
page will be dereferenced too many times.
This was found while doing kTLS testing with sendfile() + ZC when the

mm: revert "mm: shmem: fix data-race in shmem_getattr()"
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm: revert "mm: shmem: fix data-race in shmem_getattr()"
Revert d949d1d14fa2 ("mm: shmem: fix data-race in shmem_getattr()") as
suggested by Chuck [1]. It is causing deadlocks when accessing tmpfs over
NFS.
As Hugh commented, "added just to silence a syzbot sanitizer splat: added
where there has never been any practical problem".
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: VMX: Bury Intel PT virtualization (guest/host mode) behind CONFIG_BROKEN
Hide KVM's pt_mode module param behind CONFIG_BROKEN, i.e. disable support
for virtualizing Intel PT via guest/host mode unless BROKEN=y. There are
myriad bugs in the implementation, some of which are fatal to the guest,
and others which put the stability and health of the host at risk.
For guest fatalities, the most glaring issue is that KVM fails to ensure
tracing is disabled, and *stays* disabled prior to VM-Enter, which is
necessary as hardware disallows loading (the guest's) RTIT_CTL if tra
nilfs2: fix null-ptr-deref in block_touch_buffer tracepoint
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix null-ptr-deref in block_touch_buffer tracepoint
Patch series "nilfs2: fix null-ptr-deref bugs on block tracepoints".
This series fixes null pointer dereference bugs that occur when using
nilfs2 and two block-related tracepoints.
This patch (of 2):
It has been reported that when using "block:block_touch_buffer"
tracepoint, touch_buffer() called from __nilfs_get_folio_block() causes a
NULL pointer dereference, or a general protection fault when KASAN is
enabled.
This happens because since the tracepoint was added in touch_buffer(), it
references the dev_t mem
nilfs2: fix null-ptr-deref in block_dirty_buffer tracepoint
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix null-ptr-deref in block_dirty_buffer tracepoint
When using the "block:block_dirty_buffer" tracepoint, mark_buffer_dirty()
may cause a NULL pointer dereference, or a general protection fault when
KASAN is enabled.
This happens because, since the tracepoint was added in
mark_buffer_dirty(), it references the dev_t member bh->b_bdev->bd_dev
regardless of whether the buffer head has a pointer to a block_device
structure.
In the current implementation, nilfs_grab_buffer(), which grabs a buffer
to read (or create) a block of metadata, including b-tree node blocks,

Revert "mmc: dw_mmc: Fix IDMAC operation with pages bigger than 4K"
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Revert "mmc: dw_mmc: Fix IDMAC operation with pages bigger than 4K"
The commit 8396c793ffdf ("mmc: dw_mmc: Fix IDMAC operation with pages
bigger than 4K") increased the max_req_size, even for 4K pages, causing
various issues:
- Panic booting the kernel/rootfs from an SD card on Rockchip RK3566
- Panic booting the kernel/rootfs from an SD card on StarFive JH7100
- "swiotlb buffer is full" and data corruption on StarFive JH7110
At this stage no fix have been found, so it's probably better to just
revert the change.
This reverts commit 8396c793ffdf28bb8aee7cfe0891080f8cab789
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: fs, lock FTE when checking if active
The referenced commits introduced a two-step process for deleting FTEs:
- Lock the FTE, delete it from hardware, set the hardware deletion function
to NULL and unlock the FTE.
- Lock the parent flow group, delete the software copy of the FTE, and
remove it from the xarray.
However, this approach encounters a race condition if a rule with the same
match value is added simultaneously. In this scenario, fs_core may set the
hardware deletion function to NULL prematurely, causing a panic during
subsequent rule deletions.

media: uvcvideo: Skip parsing frames of type UVC_VS_UNDEFINED in uvc_parse_format
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: uvcvideo: Skip parsing frames of type UVC_VS_UNDEFINED in uvc_parse_format
This can lead to out of bounds writes since frames of this type were not
taken into account when calculating the size of the frames buffer in
uvc_parse_streaming.
hv_sock: Initializing vsk->trans to NULL to prevent a dangling pointer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hv_sock: Initializing vsk->trans to NULL to prevent a dangling pointer
When hvs is released, there is a possibility that vsk->trans may not
be initialized to NULL, which could lead to a dangling pointer.
This issue is resolved by initializing vsk->trans to NULL.
