gpio: tegra: do not call pinctrl for GPIO direction
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: tegra: do not call pinctrl for GPIO direction
tegra_gpio_direction_input() and tegra_gpio_direction_output() already
program the GPIO controller direction registers directly. The additional
pinctrl_gpio_direction_input/output() calls do not add a Tegra pinctrl
operation, because the Tegra pinmux ops provide GPIO request/free
handling but no gpio_set_direction hook.
The extra call still enters the pinctrl core and takes pctldev->mutex.
Shared GPIO users can call the direction path while holding their
per-line spinlock, so this otherwise redundant pinctrl direction cal
gpio: mt7621: avoid corruption of shared interrupt trigger state
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: mt7621: avoid corruption of shared interrupt trigger state
The bank-shared fields like 'rising' and 'falling' are modified using
non-atomic read-modify-write operations. Since every gpio chip instance
represents an entire bank of 32 pins, if 'mediatek_gpio_irq_type()' is
called concurrently for different IRQs on the same bank a possible overwrite
of each other's configuration is possible. Thus, protect this state with
'gpio_generic_lock_irqsave' lock in the same way it is handled in irp_chip
'mediatek_gpio_irq_mask()' and 'mediatek_gpio_irq_unmask()' callbacks.
net: sit: require CAP_NET_ADMIN in the device netns for changelink
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: sit: require CAP_NET_ADMIN in the device netns for changelink
ipip6_changelink() operates on at most two netns, dev_net(dev) and the
tunnel link netns t->net. They differ once the device is created in or
moved to a netns other than the one the request runs in. The rtnl
changelink path checks CAP_NET_ADMIN only against dev_net(dev), so a
caller privileged there but not in t->net can rewrite a tunnel that
lives in t->net.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ixp4xx_hss: fix duplicate HDLC netdev allocation
ixp4xx_hss_probe() allocates two HDLC netdevs. The first one is stored
in ndev, initialized, and registered with register_hdlc_device(). The
second one is stored in port->netdev and later used by the remove path
for unregister_hdlc_device() and free_netdev().
This means that the registered netdev is not the same object that is
unregistered and freed on remove. It also leaks the first allocation if
the second alloc_hdlcdev() call fails, and the first allocation is not
checked before ndev is used.

net/sched: act_ct: preserve tc_skb_cb across defragmentation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: act_ct: preserve tc_skb_cb across defragmentation
tcf_ct_handle_fragments() calls nf_ct_handle_fragments() without saving
and restoring skb->cb. The defrag helper clears IPCB/IP6CB, which aliases
the tc_skb_cb/qdisc_skb_cb control buffer. Fragmented traffic through
act_ct therefore loses qdisc metadata such as pkt_segs and can trigger
WARN_ON_ONCE() in qdisc_pkt_segs() when panic_on_warn is enabled.
Save and restore the full tc_skb_cb around nf_ct_handle_fragments(),
matching the pattern used by ovs_ct_handle_fragments().
net: ena: clean up XDP TX queues when regular TX setup fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ena: clean up XDP TX queues when regular TX setup fails
create_queues_with_size_backoff() creates XDP TX queues before setting
up the regular TX path. If the subsequent allocation or creation of
regular TX queues fails, the error handling paths omit the teardown of the
XDP TX queues, leading to a resource leak.
Fix this by explicitly destroying the XDP TX queue subset at the two
missing failure points.
The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are
developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing
v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under devel

ieee802154: admin-gate legacy LLSEC dump operations
In net/ieee802154/netlink.c, the legacy IEEE802154_NL family ops table
builds the LLSEC dump entries (LLSEC_LIST_KEY, LLSEC_LIST_DEV,
LLSEC_LIST_DEVKEY, LLSEC_LIST_SECLEVEL) with IEEE802154_DUMP() which
sets no .flags, so generic netlink runs them ungated. The modern
nl802154 family admin-gates the equivalent reads via
NL802154_CMD_GET_SEC_KEY and friends with .flags = GENL_ADMIN_PERM.
Any local uid that can open AF_NETLINK / NETLINK_GENERIC can resolve
the "802.15.4 MAC" family and dump LLSEC_LIST_KEY on any wpan netdev
ieee802154: ca8210: fix cas_ctl leak on spi_async failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ieee802154: ca8210: fix cas_ctl leak on spi_async failure
ca8210_spi_transfer() allocates cas_ctl with kzalloc_obj(GFP_ATOMIC)
and relies entirely on the SPI completion callback
ca8210_spi_transfer_complete() to free it.
The spi_async() API only invokes the completion callback on successful
submission. On failure it returns a negative error code without ever
queuing the callback, which leaves cas_ctl and its embedded spi_message
and spi_transfer orphaned. Every kfree(cas_ctl) in the driver is
inside the completion callback, so there is no other reclamation path.

ieee802154: ca8210: fix pointer truncation in kfifo on 64-bit
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ieee802154: ca8210: fix pointer truncation in kfifo on 64-bit
ca8210_test_int_driver_write() and ca8210_test_int_user_read() exchange
a kmalloc'd buffer pointer through a struct kfifo, but pass a literal
'4' as the byte count to kfifo_in()/kfifo_out().
This is correct on 32-bit (pointer = 4 bytes), but on 64-bit only the
low 4 bytes of the 8-byte pointer are written into the FIFO. The reader
then reads back 4 bytes into an 8-byte local pointer variable, leaving
the upper 4 bytes uninitialized stack data. The first dereference of
the reconstructed pointer (fifo_buffer[1]) a
octeontx2-af: cn10k: restrict VF LMTLINE sharing to its own PF
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
octeontx2-af: cn10k: restrict VF LMTLINE sharing to its own PF
rvu_mbox_handler_lmtst_tbl_setup() uses req->base_pcifunc as a direct
index into the LMT map table to read another function's LMTLINE
physical base address and copy it into the caller's own LMT map table
entry. The mailbox dispatcher authenticates req->hdr.pcifunc from the
IRQ source, but req->base_pcifunc is a separate payload field and is
not sanitized.
Reject the request with -EPERM when a VF caller's base_pcifunc is not a
valid function under its own PF. is_pf_func_valid() bounds the FUNC field
to the PF's
espintcp: use sk_msg_free_partial to fix partial send
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
espintcp: use sk_msg_free_partial to fix partial send
sk_msg_free_partial() ensures consistency of the skmsg at every
iteration, without having to manually handle uncharges and offsets.
This simplifies the code, and fixes some bugs in skmsg accounting when
we don't send the full contents.
bnx2x: fix potential memory leak in bnx2x_alloc_mem_bp()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnx2x: fix potential memory leak in bnx2x_alloc_mem_bp()
If the allocation of fp[i].tpa_info fails, the error path will not free
the struct bnx2x_fastpath allocated earlier, as it is not linked to the
bp structure yet. Fix that by linking it immediately after allocation.

the error path.

net/sched: sch_multiq: Replace direct dequeue call with peek and qdisc_dequeue_peeked
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: sch_multiq: Replace direct dequeue call with peek and qdisc_dequeue_peeked
multiq_dequeue() takes a packet from a band's child with a direct
->dequeue() call after multiq_peek() peeked it. When the child is
non-work-conserving the peek stashes the skb in the child's gso_skb, so
the direct dequeue returns a different skb and orphans the stash,
desyncing the child's qlen/backlog. With a qfq child reached through a
peeking parent (e.g. tbf) this re-enters the child on an emptied list and
dereferences NULL, panicking the kernel from softirq on ordinary egress.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: sch_taprio: Replace direct dequeue call with peek and qdisc_dequeue_peeked
When taprio's software path peeks a non-work-conserving child qdisc, the
child stashes the peeked skb in its gso_skb; taprio_dequeue_from_txq()
then takes the packet with a direct child ->dequeue() call, which ignores
that stash, orphans the peeked skb and desyncs the child's qlen/backlog.
With a qfq child this re-enters the child on an emptied list and
dereferences NULL, panicking the kernel from softirq on ordinary egress.
