In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm: hugetlb: fix UAF in hugetlb_handle_userfault
The vma_lock and hugetlb_fault_mutex are dropped before handling userfault
and reacquire them again after handle_userfault(), but reacquire the
vma_lock could lead to UAF[1,2] due to the following race,
hugetlb_fault

/*unlock vma_lock */
hugetlb_handle_userfault
handle_userfault
/* unlock mm->mmap_lock*/

media: dvb-usb: fix memory leak in dvb_usb_adapter_init()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: dvb-usb: fix memory leak in dvb_usb_adapter_init()
Syzbot reports a memory leak in "dvb_usb_adapter_init()".
The leak is due to not accounting for and freeing current iteration's
adapter->priv in case of an error. Currently if an error occurs,
it will exit before incrementing "num_adapters_initalized",
which is used as a reference counter to free all adap->priv
in "dvb_usb_adapter_exit()". There are multiple error paths that
can exit from before incrementing the counter. Including the
error handling paths for "dvb_usb_adapter_stream_init()",
"dvb_usb_adapter_dvb_init
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: amba-pl011: avoid SBSA UART accessing DMACR register
Chapter "B Generic UART" in "ARM Server Base System Architecture" [1]
documentation describes a generic UART interface. Such generic UART
does not support DMA. In current code, sbsa_uart_pops and
amba_pl011_pops share the same stop_rx operation, which will invoke
pl011_dma_rx_stop, leading to an access of the DMACR register. This
commit adds a using_rx_dma check in pl011_dma_rx_stop to avoid the
access to DMACR register for SBSA UARTs which does not support DMA.
When the kernel enables DMA engine with "CONFIG_DMA
net: netsec: fix error handling in netsec_register_mdio()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: netsec: fix error handling in netsec_register_mdio()
If phy_device_register() fails, phy_device_free() need be called to
put refcount, so memory of phy device and device name can be freed
in callback function.
If get_phy_device() fails, mdiobus_unregister() need be called,
or it will cause warning in mdiobus_free() and kobject is leaked.
mmc: meson-gx: fix return value check of mmc_add_host()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: meson-gx: fix return value check of mmc_add_host()
mmc_add_host() may return error, if we ignore its return value,
it will lead two issues:
1. The memory that allocated in mmc_alloc_host() is leaked.
2. In the remove() path, mmc_remove_host() will be called to
delete device, but it's not added yet, it will lead a kernel
crash because of null-ptr-deref in device_del().
Fix this by checking the return value and goto error path which
will call mmc_free_host().

fbdev: bitblit: bound-check glyph index in bit_putcs*
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: bitblit: bound-check glyph index in bit_putcs*
bit_putcs_aligned()/unaligned() derived the glyph pointer from the
character value masked by 0xff/0x1ff, which may exceed the actual font's
glyph count and read past the end of the built-in font array.
Clamp the index to the actual glyph count before computing the address.
This fixes a global out-of-bounds read reported by syzbot.
wifi: brcmfmac: fix crash while sending Action Frames in standalone AP Mode
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmfmac: fix crash while sending Action Frames in standalone AP Mode
Currently, whenever there is a need to transmit an Action frame,
the brcmfmac driver always uses the P2P vif to send the "actframe" IOVAR to
firmware. The P2P interfaces were available when wpa_supplicant is managing
the wlan interface.
However, the P2P interfaces are not created/initialized when only hostapd
is managing the wlan interface. And if hostapd receives an ANQP Query REQ
Action frame even from an un-associated STA, the brcmfmac driver tries
to use an uninitialized P2P vif pointer for sen

orangefs: fix xattr related buffer overflow...
Willy Tarreau <[email protected]> forwarded me a message from
Disclosure <[email protected]> with the following
warning:
> The helper `xattr_key()` uses the pointer variable in the loop condition
> rather than dereferencing it. As `key` is incremented, it remains non-NULL

I easily reproduced this with setfattr and getfattr, causing a kernel

fbdev: Add bounds checking in bit_putcs to fix vmalloc-out-of-bounds
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: Add bounds checking in bit_putcs to fix vmalloc-out-of-bounds
Add bounds checking to prevent writes past framebuffer boundaries when
rendering text near screen edges. Return early if the Y position is off-screen
and clip image height to screen boundary. Break from the rendering loop if the
X position is off-screen. When clipping image width to fit the screen, update
the character count to match the clipped width to prevent buffer size
mismatches.
Without the character count update, bit_putcs_aligned and bit_putcs_unaligned
receive mismatched parameters where the buf
btrfs: ensure no dirty metadata is written back for an fs with errors
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: ensure no dirty metadata is written back for an fs with errors
[BUG]
During development of a minor feature (make sure all btrfs_bio::end_io()
is called in task context), I noticed a crash in generic/388, where
metadata writes triggered new works after btrfs_stop_all_workers().
It turns out that it can even happen without any code modification, just
using RAID5 for metadata and the same workload from generic/388 is going
to trigger the use-after-free.
[CAUSE]
If btrfs hits an error, the fs is marked as error, no new
transaction is allowed thus metadata is in a froze

drm/amdgpu: Fix NULL pointer dereference in VRAM logic for APU devices
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Fix NULL pointer dereference in VRAM logic for APU devices
Previously, APU platforms (and other scenarios with uninitialized VRAM managers)
triggered a NULL pointer dereference in `ttm_resource_manager_usage()`. The root
cause is not that the `struct ttm_resource_manager *man` pointer itself is NULL,
but that `man->bdev` (the backing device pointer within the manager) remains
uninitialized (NULL) on APUs—since APUs lack dedicated VRAM and do not fully
set up VRAM manager structures. When `ttm_resource_manager_usage()` attempts to
acquire `man->bdev->lru_lock`, i
Bluetooth: btusb: reorder cleanup in btusb_disconnect to avoid UAF
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: btusb: reorder cleanup in btusb_disconnect to avoid UAF
There is a KASAN: slab-use-after-free read in btusb_disconnect().
Calling "usb_driver_release_interface(&btusb_driver, data->intf)" will
free the btusb data associated with the interface. The same data is
then used later in the function, hence the UAF.
Fix by moving the accesses to btusb data to before the data is free'd.
Bluetooth: 6lowpan: reset link-local header on ipv6 recv path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Bluetooth 6lowpan.c netdev has header_ops, so it must set link-local

Add missing skb_reset_mac_header() for uncompressed ipv6 RX path.
For the compressed one, it is done in lowpan_header_decompress().

sctp: prevent possible shift-out-of-bounds in sctp_transport_update_rto
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: prevent possible shift-out-of-bounds in sctp_transport_update_rto
syzbot reported a possible shift-out-of-bounds [1]
Blamed commit added rto_alpha_max and rto_beta_max set to 1000.
It is unclear if some sctp users are setting very large rto_alpha
and/or rto_beta.
In order to prevent user regression, perform the test at run time.
Also add READ_ONCE() annotations as sysctl values can change under us.

net: sched: act_connmark: initialize struct tc_ife to fix kernel leak
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: sched: act_connmark: initialize struct tc_ife to fix kernel leak
In tcf_connmark_dump(), the variable 'opt' was partially initialized using a
designatied initializer. While the padding bytes are reamined
uninitialized. nla_put() copies the entire structure into a
netlink message, these uninitialized bytes leaked to userspace.
Initialize the structure with memset before assigning its fields
to ensure all members and padding are cleared prior to beign copied.
