tipc: read le->link under the node lock in tipc_node_link_down()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: read le->link under the node lock in tipc_node_link_down()
tipc_node_link_down() caches the link pointer before taking n->lock:
struct tipc_link *l = le->link; /* unlocked */
if (!l)
return;
tipc_node_write_lock(n);
if (!tipc_link_is_establishing(l)) { /* deref l */
...
tipc_link_reset(l); /* write into l */
if (delete) {
kfree(l);
le->link = NULL;
The delete=true caller frees that very object under n->lock, so the lock
does not protect the cached pointer against it:
- CPU A, delete=false: tipc_rcv() on TIPC_LINK_DOWN_EVT, or the link

ring-buffer: Use current_context for safe per-CPU buffer swap
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ring-buffer: Use current_context for safe per-CPU buffer swap
The ring_buffer_swap_cpu() function currently checks the per-CPU
committing counter to determine if a buffer is actively being written to
before performing the swap. However, there exists a race window where
this check can be bypassed:
ring_buffer_lock_reserve
cpu_buffer = buffer->buffers[cpu]; // cpu_buffer_a
rb_reserve_next_event
rb_start_commit // inc committing
if (unlikely(READ_ONCE(cpu_buffer->buffer) != buffer)) {...}

mm/ptdump: always stabilise against page table freeing using init_mm
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/ptdump: always stabilise against page table freeing using init_mm
Previous commits have established the invariant that kernel page table
freeing is performed while an mmap read lock on init_mm is held, which
fixes races between ptdump and kernel page table freeing over init_mm.
However, x86 and arm64 can perform a ptdump over an mm other than init_mm
via ptdump_walk_pgd() and since kernel memory ranges are shared across
non-kernel mm's, this means that the race still exists for these cases.
Fix this by acquiring a nested mmap write lock for init_mm in
ptdump_walk_pgd()
ipv6: fix Route Information option length validation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: fix Route Information option length validation
rt6_route_rcv() validates the Route Information option (RFC 4191) length
against the prefix length, but both checks are off by one.
rinfo->length is the ND option length in units of 8 octets and it
*includes* the 8-byte option header, so an option carrying N bytes of
prefix has length == 1 + N/8. RFC 4191 section 2.3 requires length 3
when Prefix Length is greater than 64, and 2 or 3 when it is greater
than 0. The code accepts length >= 2 and length >= 1 respectively.
ipv6_addr_prefix() then copies prefix_len/8 bytes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip6_tunnel: clear skb2->cb[] in ip6ip6_err()
ip6ip6_err() clones an outer IPv6 ICMP error skb, pulls it to the
quoted inner IPv6 packet, and then passes the clone to icmpv6_send().
The clone still carries the outer packet's inet6_skb_parm in skb->cb.
If the outer packet had a Home Address Option, IP6CB(skb2)->dsthao
remains non-zero after skb_pull(). icmpv6_send() later calls
mip6_addr_swap(), which uses that stale dsthao offset against the quoted
inner packet. A malformed inner destination-options header can then make
the HAO lookup and address swap run past the end of th
fscrypt: use the mount idmap for the owner check in fscrypt_ioctl_set_policy()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fscrypt: use the mount idmap for the owner check in fscrypt_ioctl_set_policy()
fscrypt_ioctl_set_policy() calls inode_owner_or_capable() with
&nop_mnt_idmap before allowing an encryption policy to be set, instead
of the idmap of the mount the ioctl was issued on.
fscrypt is used by filesystems that support idmapped mounts (e.g. ext4,
f2fs), so on such a mount this compares the caller's fsuid against the
unmapped on-disk owner rather than the mapped owner: the actual owner
can be wrongly denied with -EACCES and an unrelated caller wrongly
allowed. Use file_mnt_idmap(filp)
sched/psi: Shut down rtpoll_timer in psi_cgroup_free()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/psi: Shut down rtpoll_timer in psi_cgroup_free()
psi_schedule_rtpoll_work() is called locklessly from the scheduler hotpath
and can race psi_trigger_destroy() taking down the last rtpoll trigger under
rtpoll_trigger_lock:
psi_schedule_rtpoll_work() psi_trigger_destroy()

ima: Instantiate file_truncate and path_truncate hooks
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ima: Instantiate file_truncate and path_truncate hooks
Instantiate the file_truncate and path_truncate LSM hooks to reset the
action cache flags (IMA_DONE_MASK) as soon as truncation is requested,
so the file, based on policy, is re-collected, re-measured, re-audited,
and re-appraised on next access.
bpf, sockmap: Fix sk_redir use-after-free in send verdict
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, sockmap: Fix sk_redir use-after-free in send verdict
sk_psock_msg_verdict() takes a socket reference for psock->sk_redir.
tcp_bpf_send_verdict() copies that pointer while holding the source socket
lock, but does not take a reference for the local copy before dropping the
lock around tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir().
When apply_bytes keeps the cached verdict active, another sendmsg() on the
same source socket can consume the remaining bytes and release the cached
reference while the first thread still holds only the raw local pointer:
CPU 0 C
sctp: keep chunk->transport in step with the list it is queued on
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: keep chunk->transport in step with the list it is queued on
__sctp_outq_flush_rtx() moves a gap-acked chunk onto another transport's
transmitted list without updating chunk->transport:
if (chunk->tsn_gap_acked) {
list_move_tail(&chunk->transmitted_list,
&transport->transmitted);
continue;
}
The chunk then sits on a live transport's list while chunk->transport still
names a different one. If that transport is removed - sctp_assoc_rm_peer()
from an ASCONF Delete-IP - sctp_transport_free() RCU-frees it and the chunk
is left with a dangling pointer. sc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: fix use-after-free of cached ASCONF chunk
addip_last_asconf caches the outstanding outbound ASCONF chunk. The normal
ASCONF-ACK completion path releases the chunk and clears the pointer.
However, sctp_asconf_queue_teardown() releases the cached chunk without
clearing addip_last_asconf. During peer restart handling,
sctp_sf_do_dupcook_a() queues SCTP_CMD_PURGE_ASCONF_QUEUE, which invokes
sctp_asconf_queue_teardown() while the association remains alive and leaves
the pointer dangling.
A delayed authenticated ASCONF-ACK can then reach sctp_sf_do_asconf_ack(),
which acc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: clear new_transport when removing a peer
sctp_process_asconf_param() stores a newly added peer transport in
asoc->new_transport. After all parameters in the ASCONF chunk have been
processed, sctp_sf_do_asconf() uses this pointer to send a HEARTBEAT to the
new transport.
An authenticated ASCONF from a remote SCTP peer can add a transport and
remove it again with a wildcard DEL-IP parameter in the same chunk. The
wildcard deletion preserves the transport on which the ASCONF arrived, but
removes the newly added transport through
sctp_assoc_del_nonprimary_peers(). The re
thunderbolt: Bound the DROM dual link port number before indexing sw->ports
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thunderbolt: Bound the DROM dual link port number before indexing sw->ports
tb_drom_parse_entry_port() validates the device-supplied header->index
against sw->config.max_port_number before indexing sw->ports[], but the
sibling field entry->dual_link_port_nr -- a 6-bit value also read from
the DROM -- indexes the same array with no such check. A malicious or
malformed Thunderbolt device can set dual_link_port_nr beyond the
allocated sw->ports[] (max_port_number + 1 entries), producing an
out-of-bounds tb_port pointer that is stored and later dereferenced.

RDMA/bnxt_re: zero shared page before exposing to userspace
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bnxt_re: zero shared page before exposing to userspace
bnxt_re_alloc_ucontext() allocates uctx->shpg via
__get_free_page(GFP_KERNEL). The buddy allocator does not zero pages
without __GFP_ZERO, so the page contains stale kernel data from
whatever object most recently freed it.
The page is then mapped into userspace via vm_insert_page() under
BNXT_RE_MMAP_SH_PAGE in bnxt_re_mmap(). The driver only ever writes
4 bytes (a u32 AVID) at offset BNXT_RE_AVID_OFFT (0x10) inside
bnxt_re_create_ah(); the remaining 4092 bytes of the page are exposed
to userspace unsanitised, lea

net/sched: cls_route: fix fastmap use-after-free on filter
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: cls_route: fix fastmap use-after-free on filter
The route4 classifier maintains a 16-slot fastmap cache that stores raw
struct route4_filter pointers indexed by (id, iif). The reader
(route4_classify) populates this cache via route4_set_fastmap() for every
classified packet that hits a filter. The writer (route4_delete,
route4_change) clears the cache via route4_reset_fastmap() before
RCU-deferred kfree of the filter.
This creates a UAF race:
1. Reader walks the RCU-protected bucket chain, finds filter f
2. Writer unlinks f, calls route4_reset_fastmap(), then
packet: use consistent hard_header_len in non-ring send paths
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
packet: use consistent hard_header_len in non-ring send paths
packet_snd() reads dev->hard_header_len multiple times while allocating
and constructing an skb. Device reconfiguration can change this value
concurrently, for example through bonding device type changes.
For SOCK_RAW, packet_snd() can save a larger value in reserve and later
allocate headroom using a smaller value. Moving skb->data back by reserve
then places it before skb->head, and the following copy from userspace can
attempt an out-of-bounds write.
packet_sendmsg_spkt() has the same issue because it calcul
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ipv6: clear suppressed fib6 rule result
fib6_rule_suppress() drops a suppressed route with ip6_rt_put_flags(),
but leaves res->rt6 pointing at the released rt6_info.
If no later rule supplies a replacement, fib6_rule_lookup() still sees
res.rt6 and returns that stale dst to its caller. A suppressing rule can
therefore leak a released route back to rt6_lookup(), and the next put
hits rcuref_put_slowpath() from dst_release().
Clear res->rt6 when suppressing the route so suppressed lookups fall
through to the null dst instead of reusing the released one.

vhost: reset the vring metadata cache on vring reconfiguration
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vhost: reset the vring metadata cache on vring reconfiguration
vq->meta_iotlb[] caches the vhost_iotlb_map that backs each vring
metadata region, and iotlb_access_ok() returns early on a cache hit,
taking the hit as proof that the region has already been validated:
if (vhost_vq_meta_fetch(vq, addr, len, type))
return true;
The cache is reset on VHOST_IOTLB_UPDATE and VHOST_IOTLB_INVALIDATE, on
device IOTLB (re)initialisation and on vq reset, but not when
VHOST_SET_VRING_ADDR replaces vq->desc, vq->avail and vq->used, nor when
VHOST_SET_VRING_NUM changes the region size
netfilter: nft_payload: fix mask build for partial field offload
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_payload: fix mask build for partial field offload
nft_payload_offload_mask() builds the offload match mask for a payload
expression that covers only part of a header field. For a partial IPv6
address match (field_len = 16, priv_len = 1) that shift is 1 << 120, which
is undefined on the 32-bit int operand. It also trims only one word, so
the remaining words stay 0xffffffff (and when priv_len is a multiple of 4
the trim is skipped entirely), leaving the mask covering more bytes than
the rule matches.
