In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ila: call nf_unregister_net_hooks() sooner
syzbot found an use-after-free Read in ila_nf_input [1]
Issue here is that ila_xlat_exit_net() frees the rhashtable,
then call nf_unregister_net_hooks().
It should be done in the reverse way, with a synchronize_rcu().
This is a good match for a pre_exit() method.

nilfs2: fix missing cleanup on rollforward recovery error
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix missing cleanup on rollforward recovery error
In an error injection test of a routine for mount-time recovery, KASAN
found a use-after-free bug.
It turned out that if data recovery was performed using partial logs
created by dsync writes, but an error occurred before starting the log
writer to create a recovered checkpoint, the inodes whose data had been
recovered were left in the ns_dirty_files list of the nilfs object and
were not freed.
Fix this issue by cleaning up inodes that have read the recovery data if
the recovery routine fails midway before the log
nilfs2: protect references to superblock parameters exposed in sysfs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: protect references to superblock parameters exposed in sysfs
The superblock buffers of nilfs2 can not only be overwritten at runtime
for modifications/repairs, but they are also regularly swapped, replaced
during resizing, and even abandoned when degrading to one side due to
backing device issues. So, accessing them requires mutual exclusion using
the reader/writer semaphore "nilfs->ns_sem".
Some sysfs attribute show methods read this superblock buffer without the
necessary mutual exclusion, which can cause problems with pointer
dereferencing and memory access, so
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udf: Avoid excessive partition lengths
Avoid mounting filesystems where the partition would overflow the
32-bits used for block number. Also refuse to mount filesystems where
the partition length is so large we cannot safely index bits in a
block bitmap.
can: bcm: Remove proc entry when dev is unregistered.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: bcm: Remove proc entry when dev is unregistered.
syzkaller reported a warning in bcm_connect() below. [0]
The repro calls connect() to vxcan1, removes vxcan1, and calls
connect() with ifindex == 0.
Calling connect() for a BCM socket allocates a proc entry.
Then, bcm_sk(sk)->bound is set to 1 to prevent further connect().
However, removing the bound device resets bcm_sk(sk)->bound to 0
in bcm_notify().
The 2nd connect() tries to allocate a proc entry with the same
name and sets NULL to bcm_sk(sk)->bcm_proc_read, leaking the
original proc entry.
Since the proc entry
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fou: Fix null-ptr-deref in GRO.
We observed a null-ptr-deref in fou_gro_receive() while shutting down
a host. [0]
The NULL pointer is sk->sk_user_data, and the offset 8 is of protocol
in struct fou.
When fou_release() is called due to netns dismantle or explicit tunnel
teardown, udp_tunnel_sock_release() sets NULL to sk->sk_user_data.
Then, the tunnel socket is destroyed after a single RCU grace period.
So, in-flight udp4_gro_receive() could find the socket and execute the
FOU GRO handler, where sk->sk_user_data could be NULL.
Let's use rcu_dereference_sk_user_data() i
pci/hotplug/pnv_php: Fix hotplug driver crash on Powernv
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pci/hotplug/pnv_php: Fix hotplug driver crash on Powernv
The hotplug driver for powerpc (pci/hotplug/pnv_php.c) causes a kernel
crash when we try to hot-unplug/disable the PCIe switch/bridge from
the PHB.
The crash occurs because although the MSI data structure has been
released during disable/hot-unplug path and it has been assigned
with NULL, still during unregistration the code was again trying to
explicitly disable the MSI which causes the NULL pointer dereference and
kernel crash.
The patch fixes the check during unregistration path to prevent invoking

hwmon: (adc128d818) Fix underflows seen when writing limit attributes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (adc128d818) Fix underflows seen when writing limit attributes
DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST() after kstrtol() results in an underflow if a large
negative number such as -9223372036854775808 is provided by the user.
Fix it by reordering clamp_val() and DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST() operations.
wifi: mwifiex: Do not return unused priv in mwifiex_get_priv_by_id()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mwifiex: Do not return unused priv in mwifiex_get_priv_by_id()
mwifiex_get_priv_by_id() returns the priv pointer corresponding to
the bss_num and bss_type, but without checking if the priv is actually
currently in use.
Unused priv pointers do not have a wiphy attached to them which can
lead to NULL pointer dereferences further down the callstack. Fix
this by returning only used priv pointers which have priv->bss_mode
set to something else than NL80211_IFTYPE_UNSPECIFIED.
Said NULL pointer dereference happened when an Accesspoint was started
with wpa_supplicant -i ml
btrfs: replace BUG_ON() with error handling at update_ref_for_cow()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: replace BUG_ON() with error handling at update_ref_for_cow()
Instead of a BUG_ON() just return an error, log an error message and
abort the transaction in case we find an extent buffer belonging to the
relocation tree that doesn't have the full backref flag set. This is
unexpected and should never happen (save for bugs or a potential bad
memory).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

HID: cougar: fix slab-out-of-bounds Read in cougar_report_fixup
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

HID: amd_sfh: free driver_data after destroying hid device
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: amd_sfh: free driver_data after destroying hid device
HID driver callbacks aren't called anymore once hid_destroy_device() has
been called. Hence, hid driver_data should be freed only after the
hid_destroy_device() function returned as driver_data is used in several
callbacks.
I observed a crash with kernel 6.10.0 on my T14s Gen 3, after enabling
KASAN to debug memory allocation, I got this output:

Input: uinput - reject requests with unreasonable number of slots
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: uinput - reject requests with unreasonable number of slots
When exercising uinput interface syzkaller may try setting up device
with a really large number of slots, which causes memory allocation
failure in input_mt_init_slots(). While this allocation failure is
handled properly and request is rejected, it results in syzkaller
reports. Additionally, such request may put undue burden on the
system which will try to free a lot of memory for a bogus request.
Fix it by limiting allowed number of slots to 100. This can easily
be extended if we see devices that can track
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Squashfs: sanity check symbolic link size
Syzkiller reports a "KMSAN: uninit-value in pick_link" bug.
This is caused by an uninitialised page, which is ultimately caused
by a corrupted symbolic link size read from disk.
The reason why the corrupted symlink size causes an uninitialised
page is due to the following sequence of events:
1. squashfs_read_inode() is called to read the symbolic
link from disk. This assigns the corrupted value
3875536935 to inode->i_size.
2. Later squashfs_symlink_read_folio() is called, which assigns
this corrupted value to the lengt
of/irq: Prevent device address out-of-bounds read in interrupt map walk
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
of/irq: Prevent device address out-of-bounds read in interrupt map walk
When of_irq_parse_raw() is invoked with a device address smaller than
the interrupt parent node (from #address-cells property), KASAN detects
the following out-of-bounds read when populating the initial match table
(dyndbg="func of_irq_parse_* +p"):
OF: of_irq_parse_one: dev=/soc@0/picasso/watchdog, index=0

========================
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binder: fix UAF caused by offsets overwrite
Binder objects are processed and copied individually into the target
buffer during transactions. Any raw data in-between these objects is
copied as well. However, this raw data copy lacks an out-of-bounds
check. If the raw data exceeds the data section size then the copy
overwrites the offsets section. This eventually triggers an error that
attempts to unwind the processed objects. However, at this point the
offsets used to index these objects are now corrupted.
Unwinding with corrupted offsets can result in decrements of arbitra
uio_hv_generic: Fix kernel NULL pointer dereference in hv_uio_rescind
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
uio_hv_generic: Fix kernel NULL pointer dereference in hv_uio_rescind
For primary VM Bus channels, primary_channel pointer is always NULL. This
pointer is valid only for the secondary channels. Also, rescind callback
is meant for primary channels only.
Fix NULL pointer dereference by retrieving the device_obj from the parent
for the primary channel.
VMCI: Fix use-after-free when removing resource in vmci_resource_remove()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
VMCI: Fix use-after-free when removing resource in vmci_resource_remove()
When removing a resource from vmci_resource_table in
vmci_resource_remove(), the search is performed using the resource
handle by comparing context and resource fields.
It is possible though to create two resources with different types
but same handle (same context and resource fields).
When trying to remove one of the resources, vmci_resource_remove()
may not remove the intended one, but the object will still be freed
as in the case of the datagram type in vmci_datagram_destroy_handle().

nvmet-tcp: fix kernel crash if commands allocation fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvmet-tcp: fix kernel crash if commands allocation fails
If the commands allocation fails in nvmet_tcp_alloc_cmds()
the kernel crashes in nvmet_tcp_release_queue_work() because of
a NULL pointer dereference.
nvmet: failed to install queue 0 cntlid 1 ret 6
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at
