net/sched: sfq: clamp quantum to avoid signed overflow soft lockup
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: sfq: clamp quantum to avoid signed overflow soft lockup
sfq_init() sets q->quantum = psched_mtu(qdisc_dev(sch)) (unsigned). A
device with a huge MTU (e.g. dummy with max_mtu == 0 accepting MTU
2147483634) makes psched_mtu() return 0x80000000, so slot->allot = INT_MIN
and INT_MIN + INT_MIN toggles between INT_MIN and 0 forever, spinning
sfq_dequeue() under the qdisc lock.
Clamp the quantum to [256, 1 << 20] so the refill loop terminates. The
lower bound also covers q->quantum == 0 (psched_mtu() returning 0),
which spins sfq_dequeue() identically. sfq_change() alr
net/sched: sch_teql: restore skb->dev on the slave failure path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: sch_teql: restore skb->dev on the slave failure path
teql_master_xmit() sets skb->dev = slave before calling the slave's
ndo_start_xmit(), but never restores it when that transmit fails. The
skb then walks on to the next slave still pointing at the previous one.
If a later slave has no resolved neighbour, teql_resolve() hands the skb
to neigh_event_send(), which queues it on that neighbour's arp_queue
with the stale skb->dev. skb->dev holds no reference, so deleting the
previous slave frees the net_device while the skb is still queued.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tpm: st33zp24: Return zero on status read failure
st33zp24_status() ignores the result of the transport read and returns
data even when no byte was received. The I2C transport, for example,
skips i2c_master_recv() when the register-select write is short or fails,
leaving data uninitialized. The resulting stack value can be interpreted
as TPM_STS flags and let status checks complete spuriously.
The status callback cannot propagate a transport error. Return zero
unless recv() reports exactly one byte. With no status bits set, callers
retry or take their existing timeout or e
crypto: acomp - allocate async request context when cloning
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: acomp - allocate async request context when cloning
ACOMP_REQUEST_ON_STACK() reserves only enough storage for the
synchronous fallback. When an async implementation is selected, callers
clone that stack request before retrying, but acomp_request_clone()
currently copies only the stack-sized object. The clone therefore has no
storage for the async provider request context, and providers such as QAT
write past the allocation through acomp_request_ctx(). KASAN does report
a slab OOB write.
Allocate a zeroed clone large enough for the runtime acomp request size,

ASoC: dapm: Fix off-by-one check on the second enum channel
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: dapm: Fix off-by-one check on the second enum channel
The snd_soc_dapm_put_enum_double() rejects item[0] once it reaches
e->items, but it lets item[1] be equal to it. Both go on to
snd_soc_enum_item_to_val(), which indexes e->values with no bound of
its own, so an enum with a value table reads one element past the end.
The indexing arrived with the MUX consolidation, which relaxed the
item[1] check in the same hunk. The value MUX handler it deleted used
>= there, and the snd_soc_put_enum_double() in soc-ops.c still does.
Only adav80x pairs a value table with two s
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: validate banner payload length
When parsing the Ceph messenger v2 protocol banner, the `payload_len` field
is decoded from the banner prefix. If a client sends a banner with a
`payload_len` of 0, the kernel sets up a 0-length socket read. This
violates an invariant in the state machine, triggering a warning in
`populate_in_iter()`:

samples/ftrace: Fix kthread_stop() on ERR_PTR in ftrace-direct-multi-modify
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
samples/ftrace: Fix kthread_stop() on ERR_PTR in ftrace-direct-multi-modify
ftrace_direct_multi_init() assigns kthread_run()'s return value to
simple_tsk without an IS_ERR() check. When kthread_run() fails it
returns ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM), but init still returns 0, so the module loads
with simple_tsk holding an error pointer. On unload,
ftrace_direct_multi_exit() then passes that ERR_PTR to kthread_stop(),
leading to a null-pointer-dereference.
Check the return value of kthread_run() with IS_ERR(); on failure,
unregister the ftrace direct call and propagate the error code.
net/smc: release the internal TCP sock on IPPROTO_SMC socket creation failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: release the internal TCP sock on IPPROTO_SMC socket creation failure
IPPROTO_SMC sockets create an internal TCP sock ("clcsock") from the
proto->init hook. When socket creation fails after proto->init has
run - e.g. a cgroup BPF program attached to BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE
denies the socket - sk_common_release() only invokes sk_prot->destroy
if it is set, but neither smc_inet_prot nor smc_inet6_prot defines it,
and smc_destruct() returns early unless sk_state is SMC_CLOSED. As a
result, every failing socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_SMC) call
leaks one tcp_s
drm/xe: Reject page faults from non-fault-mode scratch VMs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: Reject page faults from non-fault-mode scratch VMs
Having scratch enabled does not make a VM capable of handling recoverable
page faults. Allowing scratch VMs through the ASID lookup also admits
dma-fence mode VMs.
If such a VM faults on an already valid VMA, the handler reports success
without fixing the fault, causing the GPU to retry indefinitely.
Only allow fault-mode VMs through the ASID lookup. Fault-mode VMs using
scratch remain supported, while faults from 3D VMs are rejected.

virtio-net: Ensure that TCP packets don't overflow gso_segs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio-net: Ensure that TCP packets don't overflow gso_segs
The user can specify any gso_size in a packet crafted with an AF_PACKET
PACKET_VNET_HDR socket, even smaller than TCP_MIN_GSO_SIZE = 8. At the
same time, GSO_MAX_SIZE = 8 * GSO_MAX_SEGS = 8 * 65535. When the user
crafts a packet with gso_size < 8, there is a risk for partial GSO to
overflow the 16-bit gso_segs field when dividing the SKB length by
gso_size.
Adjust gso_size of TCP packets to be at least TCP_MIN_GSO_SIZE = 8. Keep
gso_size of UDP GSO packets, as gso_size=1 is valid and explicitly
tested at tools/tes
netfilter: nf_tables: move hardware offload step after building the chain blob
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: move hardware offload step after building the chain blob
Allocate the chain blob before the ruleset offload to reduce chances of
entering an inconsistent state where the offloaded ruleset in the nic
and the software ruleset differ.
netfilter: nf_tables: skip double clone set expressions on element insert
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: skip double clone set expressions on element insert
Both the dynset and newsetelem path clone the existing set expressions
when setting set element expressions if no override expressions are
provided. This results in a double clone, once to clone the template set
expressions then another clone on the new element. Add a flag to
annotate if userspace provides a override expression (ie. expression of
the same type of the set but different configuration), otherwise borrow
the existing expression from the set. Add conditionals to release
expression iif they
ALSA: control: Don't add invalid kcontrols to LED layer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: control: Don't add invalid kcontrols to LED layer
The kcontrol LED state layer tries to track the all associated
kcontrol elements with naive assumptions that they are readable.
But one can create a write-only element that has no get callback (even
a user element can do it), and this may lead to a NULL dereference at
the call chain of snd_ctl_led_notify(), as found by syzkaller.
For avoiding the Oops, add a sanity check of the kcontrol's info and
get callbacks, and just skip the invalid kcontrols before assigning
the kctl to the LED layer.
net: stmmac: restore NET_IP_ALIGN in the RX DMA offset
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: stmmac: restore NET_IP_ALIGN in the RX DMA offset
Since the RX path was converted to zero-copy, the page pool page is handed
to the stack directly as the skb head, and the offset the DMA engine writes
at is what determines the alignment of the packet headers.
Before the conversion the payload was copied into an skb obtained from
napi_alloc_skb(), which reserves NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN. The
conversion moved the headroom into stmmac_rx_offset() but did not carry
over NET_IP_ALIGN, so on architectures where NET_IP_ALIGN is 2 the IP
header now lands misaligned:

net/sched: bound qdisc_pkt_len to prevent qdisc soft lockup
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: bound qdisc_pkt_len to prevent qdisc soft lockup
qdisc_get_stab() accepts a user-supplied size table, and
__qdisc_calculate_pkt_len() amplifies qdisc_pkt_len() through the
overhead, the size-table data (u16), and size_log (up to
STAB_SIZE_LOG_MAX). A crafted stab can therefore set qdisc_pkt_len()
to ~1 GiB for an ordinary skb. Per-flow deficit schedulers such as
DRR and ETS replenish one quantum per loop iteration; with a tiny
quantum (1) they spin billions of times under the qdisc lock,
producing a soft lockup / RCU stall as illustrated by [email protected].

slip: remove slip_hangup() to fix use-after-free in slip_receive_buf()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
slip: remove slip_hangup() to fix use-after-free in slip_receive_buf()
Jaeyoung Chung and Eulgyu Kim reported a slab-use-after-free read
in slip_receive_buf() when racing against tty hangup.
tty_ldisc_hangup() calls ld->ops->hangup() while holding only
a read lock on tty->ldisc_sem (via tty_ldisc_ref()).
Because slip_hangup() simply called slip_close(), it ran concurrently
with reader functions such as slip_receive_buf().
slip_close() unregisters and frees the net device and its private
struct slip, causing concurrent reader threads in slip_receive_buf()
to dereference fr
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: fec: only stop PTP if it was initialized
fec_ptp_init() is only called when fep->bufdesc_ex is available.
However, fec_probe() unconditionally calls fec_ptp_stop() on the
failed_init path, and fec_drv_remove() unconditionally calls
fec_ptp_stop() during device removal.
Check fep->bufdesc_ex before calling fec_ptp_stop() in both paths
to avoid stopping PTP when it was not initialized.

tcp: fix corruption of urgent data on multi-segment retransmit
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: fix corruption of urgent data on multi-segment retransmit
On the normal xmit path, while in urgent mode we refuse to build a
multi-segment TSO packet, so every segment gets its own urg_ptr:
/* tcp_write_xmit() */
limit = mss_now;
if (tso_segs > 1 && !tcp_urg_mode(tp))
limit = tcp_mss_split_point(...);
The retransmit path has no such guard. __tcp_retransmit_skb() builds a
segs > 1 skb and hands it to the GSO layer, which only advances th->seq
per segment and copies urg_ptr verbatim:
/* __tcp_retransmit_skb() */
len = cur_mss * segs; /* segs > 1, no urg_mode c
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: sch_htb: limit htb_classify inner-class filter hops
htb_classify() follows each filter-selected inner class by switching
to cl->filter_list, but never bounds the number of hops. A filter on
an inner class can point back to itself or to another inner class that
points back, creating an infinite loop in the packet classification
path with the qdisc lock held and BH disabled — a soft lockup / panic
from a single packet.
Bound the traversal with a hop counter and drop the packet with a
rate-limited warning once the bound is exceeded. The counter is
incremented at th
