netfilter: nft_fib: reject fib expression on the netdev egress hook
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_fib: reject fib expression on the netdev egress hook
A fib expression in a netdev egress base chain dereferences nft_in(pkt),
NULL on the transmit path, causing a NULL pointer dereference at eval.
nft_fib_validate() masks the hook with NF_INET_* values, but netdev hook
numbers are a separate enum that aliases them (NF_NETDEV_EGRESS ==
NF_INET_LOCAL_IN), so an egress chain passes validation and then faults.
Add nft_fib_netdev_validate() that limits each result/flag to the netdev
hook where the device it reads exists: the input-device cases (OIF,
OIFNAME, ADDR
netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: validate skb_dst() before accessing it
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: validate skb_dst() before accessing it
tc ingress and openvswitch do not guarantee routing information to be
available. These subsystems use the conntrack helper infrastructure, and
the SIP helper relies on the skb_dst() to be present if
sip_external_media is set to 1 (which is disabled by default as a module
parameter).
This effectively disables the sip_external_media toggle for these
subsystems without resulting in a crash.
netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: don't leak bad clone into future transaction
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: don't leak bad clone into future transaction
On memory allocation failure the cloned nft_pipapo_match can enter a bad
state:
- some fields can have their lookup tables resized while others did
not
- bits might have been toggled
- scratch map can be undersized which also means m->bsize_max can be
lower than what is required
This means that the next insertion in the same batch can trigger
out-of-bounds writes.
Furthermore, a failure in the first can result in the bad clone to
leak into the next transaction because the abort callback is ne
netfilter: nf_nat_sip: reload possible stale data pointer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: nf_conntrack_reasm: guard mac_header adjustment after IPv6 defrag
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack_reasm: guard mac_header adjustment after IPv6 defrag
nf_ct_frag6_reasm() slides the packet head forward to drop the IPv6
fragment header and then unconditionally advances skb->mac_header:
skb->mac_header += sizeof(struct frag_hdr);
On the NF_INET_LOCAL_OUT defrag path the skb has no link-layer header
yet, so skb->mac_header is still the "not set" sentinel (u16)~0U. Adding
sizeof(struct frag_hdr) wraps it to a small value (0xffff + 8 == 7),
after which skb_mac_header_was_set() wrongly reports a MAC header is
present and skb_mac_header() points into
netfilter: nf_conncount: fix zone comparison in tuple dedup
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conncount: fix zone comparison in tuple dedup
The "already exists" dedup logic in __nf_conncount_add() decides
whether a connection has already been counted and can be skipped instead
of incrementing the connlimit count. It compares the conntrack zone of a
list entry with the zone of the connection being added using
nf_ct_zone_id() and nf_ct_zone_equal(), passing conn->zone.dir or
zone->dir as the direction argument.
Those helpers take enum ip_conntrack_dir values: IP_CT_DIR_ORIGINAL is 0
and IP_CT_DIR_REPLY is 1. However, zone->dir is a u8 bitmask:

gpu: host1x: Fix device reference leak in host1x_device_parse_dt() error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpu: host1x: Fix device reference leak in host1x_device_parse_dt() error path
After device_initialize(), the embedded struct device in struct
host1x_device should be released through the device core with
put_device().
In host1x_device_add(), if host1x_device_parse_dt() fails, the current
error path frees the object directly with kfree(device). That bypasses
the normal device lifetime handling and leaks the reference held on the
embedded struct device.
The issue was identified by a static analysis tool I developed and
confirmed by manual review.
Fix this by using put_devi
gpu/buddy: bail out of try_harder when alignment cannot be honoured
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpu/buddy: bail out of try_harder when alignment cannot be honoured
The try_harder contiguous fallback could return a range whose start
offset did not match the caller's min_block_size. When a candidate's
start is misaligned, realign it: free the misaligned run and reallocate
exactly @size at the next lower min_block_size boundary. This keeps the
returned size unchanged with no surplus to trim, and rejects the request
only when no aligned candidate fits.
v2: align misaligned candidates down to min_block_size instead of
bailing out, for both the RHS and LHS paths (Matth
selinux: check connect-related permissions on TCP Fast Open
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
selinux: check connect-related permissions on TCP Fast Open
Similar to Landlock, SELinux was not updated when TCP Fast Open
support was introduced to ensure connect-related permissions are
checked when using TCP Fast Open. Update its socket_sendmsg() hook to
call selinux_socket_connect() when MSG_FASTOPEN is passed.
selinux: avoid sk_socket dereference in selinux_sctp_bind_connect()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
selinux: avoid sk_socket dereference in selinux_sctp_bind_connect()
selinux_sctp_bind_connect() dereferences sk->sk_socket to pass a
struct socket * to selinux_socket_bind() and
selinux_socket_connect_helper(). However, when the hook is invoked
from the ASCONF softirq path (sctp_process_asconf), there is no file
reference guaranteeing that sk->sk_socket is non-NULL. The setsockopt
callers (bindx, connectx, set_primary, sendmsg connect) hold a file
reference and are not affected.
Both selinux_socket_bind() and selinux_socket_connect_helper()
immediately resolve sock->sk,
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
leds: uleds: Fix potential buffer overread
The name string supplied by userspace is not guaranteed to be
null-terminated, so using strchr() on it might result in a buffer
overread. The same thing will happen when said string is used by
the LED class device.
Fix this by using strnchr() instead and explicitly check that
the name string is properly null-terminated.
mfd: sm501: Fix reference leak on failed device registration
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mfd: sm501: Fix reference leak on failed device registration
When platform_device_register() fails in sm501_register_device(), the
embedded struct device in pdev has already been initialized by
device_initialize(), but the failure path only reports the error and
returns without dropping the device reference for the current platform
device:
sm501_register_device()
-> platform_device_register(pdev)
-> device_initialize(&pdev->dev)
-> setup_pdev_dma_masks(pdev)
-> platform_device_add(pdev)
This leads to a reference leak when platform_device_registe
x86/boot: Validate console=uart8250 baud rate to fix early boot hang
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/boot: Validate console=uart8250 baud rate to fix early boot hang
When the baud rate is empty, 0, invalid, or overflows to 0 when stored
as an int, the system will hang during early boot because of a division
by zero in early_serial_init().
Fall back to DEFAULT_BAUD when the resulting baud rate is 0 to prevent
an early system hang.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/x86/amd/brs: Fix kernel address leakage
A user-only branch stack can contain branches that originate from
the kernel. As a result, kernel addresses are exposed to user space
even when PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_USER is requested. On AMD processors
supporting X86_FEATURE_BRS (Zen 3 only), perf can still report entries
such as SYSRET/interrupt returns for which the branch-from addresses
are in the kernel.
E.g.
$ perf record -j any,u -c 4000 -e branch-brs -o - -- \
perf bench syscall basic --loop 1000 | \
perf script -i - -F brstack|tr ' ' '\n'| \

s390/perf_cpum_cf: Add missing array_index_nospec() to __hw_perf_event_init()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/perf_cpum_cf: Add missing array_index_nospec() to __hw_perf_event_init()
ev variable is userspace controlled via event->attr.config and used
as an array index after bounds checking, but without speculation
barriers.
Add the missing array_index_nospec() call to prevent speculative
execution.
batman-adv: retrieve ethhdr after potential skb realloc on RX
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: retrieve ethhdr after potential skb realloc on RX
pskb_may_pull() in batadv_interface_rx() could reallocate the buffer behind
the skb. Variables which were pointing to the old buffer need to be
reassigned to avoid an use-after-free.
This was done correctly for the VLAN header but missed for the ethernet
header which is later used for the TT and AP isolation handling.
batman-adv: access unicast_ttvn skb->data only after skb realloc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: access unicast_ttvn skb->data only after skb realloc
The pskb_may_pull() called by batadv_get_vid() could reallocate the buffer
behind the skb. Variables which were pointing to the old buffer need to be
reassigned to avoid an use-after-free.
This was done correctly for the ethernet header but missed for the
unicast_packet pointer.
batman-adv: bla: reacquire gw address after skb realloc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: bla: reacquire gw address after skb realloc
The pskb_may_pull() called by batadv_bla_is_backbone_gw() could reallocate
the buffer behind the skb. Variables which were pointing to the old buffer
need to be reassigned to avoid an use-after-free.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: ensure minimal ethernet header on TX
As documented in commit 8bd67ebb50c0 ("net: bridge: xmit: make sure we have
at least eth header len bytes"), it is possible by for a local user with
eBPF TC hook access to attach a tc filter which truncates the packet and
redirects to an batadv interface. But the code assumes that at least
ETH_HLEN bytes are available and thus might read outside of the available
buffer.
The batadv_interface_tx() must therefore always check itself if enough data
is available for the ethernet header and don't rely on min_header_len.
batman-adv: tt: avoid request storms during pending request
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: tt: avoid request storms during pending request
batadv_send_tt_request() allocates a tt_req_node when none exists for the
destination originator node. This should prevent that a multiple TT
requests are send at the same time to an originator.
But if allocation of the send buffer failed, this request must be cleaned
up again. But indicator for such a failure is "ret == false". But the
actual implementation is checking for "ret == true".
The check must be inverted to not loose the information about the TT
request directly after it was attempted to be sent out. T
