locking/rt: Fix the incorrect RCU protection in rt_spin_unlock()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
locking/rt: Fix the incorrect RCU protection in rt_spin_unlock()
rt_spin_unlock() releases the RCU protection before unlocking the
lock. That opens the door for the following UAF scenario:
T1 T2
spin_lock(&p->lock); rcu_read_lock();
invalidate(p); p = rcu_dereference(ptr);
rcu_assign_pointer(ptr, NULL); if (!p) return;
spin_unlock(&p->lock); spin_lock(&p->lock)
lock(&lock->lock);
rcu_read_lock();
kfree_rcu(p); rcu_read_unlock();
....
spin_unlock(&p->lock)
rcu_read_unlock(); // Ends grace period
rcu_do_batch()
kfree(p);
net: mana: Validate the packet length reported by the NIC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mana: Validate the packet length reported by the NIC
Validate the packet length reported in the RX CQE before passing it
to skb processing. The CQE is supplied by the NIC device and should
not be blindly trusted.
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: ip6_tunnel: require CAP_NET_ADMIN in the device netns for changelink
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ip6_tunnel: require CAP_NET_ADMIN in the device netns for changelink
ip6_tnl_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.
Gate ip6_tnl_changelink() on rtnl_dev_link_net_capable() at its top,
before any attribute is parsed.
gve: fix header buffer corruption with header-split and HW-GRO
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gve: fix header buffer corruption with header-split and HW-GRO
The DQO RX datapath programs a per-buffer-queue-descriptor
header_buf_addr at post time and reads the split header back at
completion time. Both the post and the read currently index the
header buffer by queue position rather than by the buffer's identity:
- post (gve_rx_post_buffers_dqo): header_buf_addr is computed from
bufq->tail
- read (gve_rx_dqo): the header is read from desc_idx (the completion
queue head index)
This relies on the buffer-queue index and the completion-queue index
being equal
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
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmi: fix refcount leak in i_ipmi_request()
When a caller provides a `supplied_recv` message to i_ipmi_request(),
the function increments the user's `nr_msgs` reference count. If an
error occurs later, the out_err cleanup path only frees the recv_msg
if the function allocated it itself (i.e., !supplied_recv). In the
supplied_recv case the cleanup is skipped, leaving the reference count
elevated. The caller ipmi_request_supply_msgs() does not release the
supplied_recv on error, so the reference is permanently leaked.
Fix this by explicitly reverting the reference count oper
net/mlx5: HWS, fix matcher leak on resize target setup failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: HWS, fix matcher leak on resize target setup failure
hws_bwc_matcher_move() allocates a replacement matcher before setting it
as the resize target. If mlx5hws_matcher_resize_set_target() fails, the
replacement matcher is not attached anywhere and is leaked.
Fix the leak by destroying the replacement matcher before returning from
the resize-target failure path.
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 development and is not yet publicly
availab
ata: libata-core: Reject an invalid concurrent positioning ranges count
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ata: libata-core: Reject an invalid concurrent positioning ranges count
ata_dev_config_cpr() takes the number of range descriptors from buf[0]
of the concurrent positioning ranges log (up to 255), which the device
reports independently of the log size in the GPL directory. The count is
then walked at a fixed 32-byte stride in two places with no bound: the
log read here, and the INQUIRY VPD page B9h emitter, which writes one
descriptor per range into the fixed 2048-byte ata_scsi_rbuf. A device
reporting a count larger than its own log overflows the read buffer (up
to 7704 by
octeontx2-pf: fix SQB pointer leak on init failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
octeontx2-pf: fix SQB pointer leak on init failure
otx2_init_hw_resources() initializes SQ aura and pool resources before
several later setup steps. On failure, err_free_sq_ptrs only frees SQB
pages, leaving the per-SQ sqb_ptrs arrays behind.
Use otx2_free_sq_res() for the SQ unwind path and let it free sqb_ptrs
even when sq->sqe has not been allocated yet.
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 development and is not yet publicly

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: macb: drop in-flight Tx SKBs on close
The MACB driver has since forever leaked the outgoing SKBs that
have not yet been marked as completed. They live in queue->tx_skb
which gets freed without remorse nor checking.
macb_free_consistent() gets called in a few codepaths, but only close will
trigger the added expressions. In macb_open() and macb_alloc_consistent()
failure cases, queues' tx_skb just got allocated and are empty.
fs/resctrl: Fix double-add of pseudo-locked region's RMID to free list
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/resctrl: Fix double-add of pseudo-locked region's RMID to free list
A pseudo-locked group's RMID is freed when it is created. On unmount
rmdir_all_sub() unconditionally frees all RMID of all groups, resulting
in a double-free of the pseudo-locked group's RMID. The consequence of this
is that the original free results in the pseudo-locked group's RMID being
added to the rmid_free_lru linked list and the second free then attempts
to add the same RMID entry to the rmid_free_lru again.
Do not double-free a pseudo-locked group's RMID.
s390/zcrypt: Validate length for CCA AES cipher key requests
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/zcrypt: Validate length for CCA AES cipher key requests
cca_cipher2protkey() derives the copy length for the CPRB parameter
block directly from the length field in the key token. Reject the
request early if the token length exceeds the available space in the
parameter block.
s390/zcrypt: Validate length for CCA ECC private key requests
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/zcrypt: Validate length for CCA ECC private key requests
cca_ecc2protkey() derives the copy length for the CPRB parameter
block directly from the length field in the key token. Reject the
request early if the token length exceeds the available space in the
parameter block.
btrfs: free mapping node on duplicate reloc root insert
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: free mapping node on duplicate reloc root insert
__add_reloc_root() allocates a mapping_node before inserting it into
rc->reloc_root_tree. If rb_simple_insert() finds an existing entry, it
returns the existing rb_node and leaves the newly allocated node unlinked.
The error path then returns -EEXIST without freeing the new node. Since
the node was never inserted into reloc_root_tree, the later cleanup in
put_reloc_control() cannot find it either.
Free the newly allocated node before returning -EEXIST.
The callers currently assert that -EEXIST should not happen, s
ata: sata_dwc_460ex: fix infinite loop in NCQ tag completion bit-scanning
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ata: sata_dwc_460ex: fix infinite loop in NCQ tag completion bit-scanning
The hand-rolled bit-scanning loop in the NCQ completion path has an
infinite loop bug. When tag_mask has only high bits set (e.g.
0x80000000), the inner while loop left-shifts tag_mask until it
overflows to 0. At that point !(0 & 1) is always true and 0 <<= 1
stays 0, causing an infinite loop in hardirq context with a spinlock
held.
Replace the open-coded bit-scanning with __ffs() which correctly
finds the least significant set bit and is bounded by the width of
the argument.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/vmwgfx: Validate vmw_surface_metadata::array_size
This field comes from userspace and should be validated against specific
limits depending on which Shader Model (SM) is available.
drm/vc4: Prevent shader BO mappings from becoming writable
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/vc4: Prevent shader BO mappings from becoming writable
vc4_gem_object_mmap() rejects a writable mapping of a validated shader
BO, but leaves VM_MAYWRITE set. Userspace can map the BO read-only and
then turn it writable with mprotect().
Validated shader BOs must stay read-only: the validator checks the
instructions once and the GPU trusts them afterwards. A writable
mapping lets userspace rewrite the code after validation, bypassing the
validator.
Clear VM_MAYWRITE on the read-only path so the mapping cannot be
upgraded, as i915 already does for its read-only objects
firmware: arm_ffa: Fix NULL dereference in ffa_partition_info_get()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_ffa: Fix NULL dereference in ffa_partition_info_get()
ffa_partition_info_get() passes uuid_str directly to uuid_parse()
without a NULL check. When a caller passes NULL, uuid_parse() ->
__uuid_parse() -> uuid_is_valid() dereferences the pointer, causing
a kernel panic:
| Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address
| 0000000000000040
| pc : uuid_parse+0x40/0xac
| lr : ffa_partition_info_get+0x1c/0x94 [arm_ffa]
Add a NULL guard before uuid_parse() so a NULL argument returns
-ENODEV instead of crashing. Callers are expected to
hwmon: (gigabyte_waterforce) Stop device IO before calling hid_hw_stop
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (gigabyte_waterforce) Stop device IO before calling hid_hw_stop
Calling hid_hw_stop() does not stop the device IO.
This results in a race condition between hid_input_report() and the point
immediately following the execution of hid_device_io_start() within
the driver probe function. If the probe operation fails after "io start"
has been initiated, this race condition will result in a UAF vulnerability.
Fix the problem by calling hid_device_io_stop() before calling
hid_hw_stop().
