ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix NULL dereference in lowpan_newlink
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix NULL dereference in lowpan_newlink
TUNSETLINK allows a TUN device to change its link-layer type to
ARPHRD_IEEE802154 without initializing ieee802154_ptr. lowpan_newlink()
checks only the device type before dereferencing the pointer, so an
RTM_NEWLINK request can trigger a NULL pointer dereference.
Reject devices without ieee802154_ptr along with devices of the wrong type.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ieee802154: cc2520: fix FIFOP work use-after-free
The FIFOP interrupt handler queues cc2520_fifop_irqwork. On removal,
cc2520_remove() only flushes the work. The devm-managed FIFOP IRQ
remains active until after ->remove() returns and can queue the work
again after that flush, allowing it to run after the private data is
released.
Disable the work with disable_work_sync() instead of flushing it, so
the handler can no longer queue it once removal begins. Destroy the
buffer mutex last, since the worker and the stop callback invoked
through ieee802154_unregister_hw() both
ieee802154: hwsim: serialize pib updates to fix double-free
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ieee802154: hwsim: serialize pib updates to fix double-free
hwsim_update_pib() does an unserialized read-swap-free of phy->pib:
pib_old = rtnl_dereference(phy->pib);
...
rcu_assign_pointer(phy->pib, pib);
kfree_rcu(pib_old, rcu);
It assumes the RTNL is held, but ->set_channel is not always called
under it: the mac802154 scan worker changes channels via
drv_set_channel() without the RTNL. Such an update can race an
RTNL-held one on the same phy; both read the same pib_old and both
kfree_rcu() it, double-freeing the object. With SLUB percpu sheaves
batching kfree_rcu(),
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: fib: bound automatic table ID allocation
fib_empty_table() probes every table ID from 1 until it finds a
free one. IPv4 tables are stored in a 256-bucket hash table, so a
dense set of IDs makes each probe walk a growing hash chain while
RTNL is held.
Automatic table assignment ("ip rule ... table 0") is an IPv4-only
legacy path. Bound the automatically allocated ID to 4096 so the
RTNL hold stays bounded, without changing lookups of explicitly
specified table IDs.
This changes user-visible behavior. A table-0 rule previously
received the lowest free ID in 1..RT_TA
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: flowlabel: cap duplicate leases per socket
ipv6_flowlabel_get() allocates an ipv6_fl_socklist entry for every
successful GET. The recheck path for a compatible existing flowlabel
links another lease without applying any lease admission check. Repeated
GET requests for one shareable label can therefore grow a socket's lease
list without bound.
Reject a new unprivileged lease once the socket already holds
FL_MAX_PER_SOCK leases. Check this on the shared recheck path so reuse
of a globally interned label, including the fl_intern() collision path,
is covered as well. New
ipvs: reject invalid states in connection template sync records
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvs: reject invalid states in connection template sync records
IPVS sync receivers validate protocol states before creating or updating a
connection. For connection templates, however, they only log states outside
the template state range and still store the value in the connection.
A template can be returned by ordinary connection lookup. TCP and SCTP then
use the invalid state as an index into their transition tables.
Reject invalid template states in both sync protocol versions before
looking up or modifying a connection. The version 1 path handles both
IPv4 and IPv6
landlock: Fix use-after-free of the source's parent directory
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
landlock: Fix use-after-free of the source's parent directory
current_check_refer_path() reads old_dentry->d_parent without holding a
reference nor a lock on it, and then dereferences it in
collect_domain_accesses() and in the audit record.
A reference on a child does not pin its parent: __d_move() reassigns
dentry->d_parent and drops the reference the child held on its former
parent. hook_path_rename() is not affected because the rename path
calls lock_rename() before the hook, so the source cannot be reparented
under it. hook_path_link() has no such protection: filenam
s390/crypto: Fix missing scrub of temp buffers with AES ctr and gcm algorithm
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/crypto: Fix missing scrub of temp buffers with AES ctr and gcm algorithm
In function ctr_aes_crypt() there is a buffer used to process
remaining bytes < AES_BLOCK_SIZE. This buffer was not scrubbed and
thus could lead to expose of unwanted data. When the buffer is used
explicitly scrub it at the end of the code block to avoid exposure of
maybe sensitive data.
In a similar way the function gcm_aes_crypt() hat an error path where
the CPACF param block was not scrubbed. Instead of return early now
these error paths go to end of function where explicit scrubbing is
done.
perf: RISC-V: store available counter mask as bitmap
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf: RISC-V: store available counter mask as bitmap
The available-counter mask was a single unsigned long, but iteration
uses RISCV_MAX_COUNTERS, which is 64. On RV32 that reads past the object.
Filling with an unsigned-long bit at index 32 and above is also wrong.
Use DECLARE_BITMAP and set_bit/bitmap helpers. Walk each bitmap word
into CFG_MATCH when checking events, when allocating an index, and when
stopping all counters. Set the counter base to i times BITS_PER_LONG.
Share the CFG_MATCH ecall through a small helper so the 32-bit argument
split is not duplicated. On q
hwmon: (gpio-fan) Fix use-after-free in alarm work
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (gpio-fan) Fix use-after-free in alarm work
fan_alarm_irq_handler() queues fan_data->alarm_work, but nothing
cancels it. fan_alarm_notify() dereferences fan_data and its hwmon
device. On unbind, devres frees the interrupt, which only waits for
the handler itself, and then releases the hwmon device and fan_data,
so a pending fan_alarm_notify() can run after those frees.
Replace INIT_WORK() with devm_work_autocancel(), registered before
devm_request_irq(). The devres cleanup then frees the interrupt
first, so no new work can be queued, and cancels the work while

media: verisilicon: hantro: bound G2 HEVC tile loop to the buffer capacity
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: verisilicon: hantro: bound G2 HEVC tile loop to the buffer capacity
prepare_tile_info_buffer() writes one entry per tile into the tile_sizes
DMA buffer, sized for a grid equal to the PPS uAPI array capacity. Use the
bounded v4l2_hevc_pps_num_tile_columns() / v4l2_hevc_pps_num_tile_rows()
helpers so the loops stay inside the buffer.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: v4l2-ctrls: validate HEVC tile counts
The stateless HEVC decoders read num_tile_columns_minus1 + 1 entries from
column_width_minus1[] and num_tile_rows_minus1 + 1 from row_height_minus1[]
and use them as tile-loop bounds, but std_validate_compound() does not
bound these u8 counts. Reject a V4L2_CTRL_TYPE_HEVC_PPS with tiling
enabled whose tile counts exceed the uAPI array capacity, mirroring the
existing compound-control range checks.
bnxt_en: Handle buffer allocation failure in bnxt_rx_ring_reset()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Handle buffer allocation failure in bnxt_rx_ring_reset()
bnxt_rx_ring_reset() frees the ring buffers and then reallocates them,
ignoring the result.
bnxt_alloc_one_rx_ring() can fail in bnxt_alloc_one_tpa_info_data(), which
returns -ENOMEM on the first failed allocation and leaves the remaining
rxr->rx_tpa[] entries zeroed.
The error isn't propagated up, so the loop in bnxt_rx_ring_reset
continues and at the end the code re-enables TPA with partially
unallocated rx_tpa array.
This means that when the agg_id from hardware is mapped to a SW index in
rxr->rx_tpa[],
bnxt_en: Propagate RX ring init failures in bnxt_init_nic()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Propagate RX ring init failures in bnxt_init_nic()
bnxt_init_rx_rings() returns an error when bnxt_alloc_one_rx_ring()
fails, but bnxt_init_nic() discards that return value and calls
bnxt_init_chip(), which enables TPA.
If an allocation fails, this could leave rxr->rx_tpa[] partially zeroed
and TPA would be enabled over an array with zeroed entries. This would
lead to a zeroed DMA address being handed out if the agg_idx is
translated to a SW index at a zeroed entry.
Fix this by propagating the error out of bnxt_init_nic(). Both callers
already check its return va
mptcp: syncookies: remember the request backup flag
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: syncookies: remember the request backup flag
Instead of using an uninitialised bit when copying the info in
subflow_ulp_clone().
To fix this, no need to extend the join_entry structure: backup is
coming from struct mptcp_subflow_request_sock, only one bit. Do the same
here by using one bit for both.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: prevent race between disconnect() and rtx
Sashiko noted that the two event can race, leading to inconsistent
status. Prevent the race using the synchronous timer stop operation.
mptcp: pm: kernel: drop pending ADD_ADDR when removing ID0
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: pm: kernel: drop pending ADD_ADDR when removing ID0
The in-kernel MPTCP path manager can leave a stale ADD_ADDR announcement
entry alive when removing the id 0 endpoint. This happens because the id 0
removal path does not tear down pending announcements, unlike the non-zero
id path.
When the PM later reselects id 0 after adding another signal endpoint, it
finds the stale anno_list entry and hits WARN_ON_ONCE(mptcp_pm_is_kernel())
in mptcp_pm_announced_alloc().
Root cause: asymmetry between removal paths.
- Non-zero id path: mptcp_nl_remove_subflow_and_signal_addr()
smb: client: reject short READ responses in CIFSSMBRead()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: reject short READ responses in CIFSSMBRead()
CIFSSMBRead() reads DataLengthHigh, DataLength and DataOffset out of
the READ_RSP returned by the server without first checking that a
whole READ_RSP was actually received. The length of the response is
recorded in rsp_iov.iov_len, but nothing constrains it to be at least
read_rsp_size before those fields are dereferenced.
A malicious or compromised SMB1 server can return a response shorter
than the READ_RSP header, so that parsing the header itself reads past
the end of the receive buffer. SMB1 is not negotiated by
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: reject userspace cifs.idmap descriptions
cifs.idmap key descriptions carry authority-bearing fields (owner and
group SIDs and uid/gid values in "os:"/"gs:"/"oi:"/"gi:" form) that the
cifs.idmap upcall helper treats as kernel-originating inputs. Unlike
its sibling cifs.spnego, the cifs.idmap key type has no vet_description
hook, so userspace can create keys of this type through
request_key(2)/add_key(2) and supply those fields without CIFS origin.
A request_key(2) call with a non-NULL callout then drives a root
usermodehelper upcall (/sbin/request-key -> cifs.i
smb: client: reject out-of-bounds DataOffset in CIFSSMBRead()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: reject out-of-bounds DataOffset in CIFSSMBRead()
The SMB1 synchronous read helper CIFSSMBRead() validates the server's
DataLength against CIFSMaxBufSize and the caller's count, but never
validates DataOffset. The copy source is formed as
&pSMBr->hdr.Protocol + le16_to_cpu(pSMBr->DataOffset)
and memcpy()'d for DataLength bytes with no check that the
[DataOffset, DataOffset + DataLength) range lies within the response
actually received from the server.
A malicious or compromised SMB1 server can return a response carrying
an in-range DataLength and a large Dat
