net: openvswitch: conntrack: avoid modifying shared unconfirmed ct entry
In a case where skb with an unconfirmed ct entry gets cloned, we may
end up committing both but with different sets of extensions.
The series of events:
1. The first clone wants to commit and runs the helpers wiring up
the extension pointer into the expectation list.
2. Then it looses the confirmation keeping the entry unconfirmed.
3. Second clone now wants to commit labels and adds the new extension
for that breaking the pointer in the expectation list causing
UAF on the destruction p
net: openvswitch: conntrack: fix helper UAF due to extensions realloc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: openvswitch: conntrack: fix helper UAF due to extensions realloc
While calling the helpers, a raw pointer to the extensions area is
wired into expectations list:
-> nf_ct_helper()
-> helper->help()
-> nf_ct_expect_related_report()
-> nf_ct_expect_insert()
-> hlist_add_head_rcu(&exp->lnode, &master_help->expectations)
In case the connection is not confirmed yet, more extensions can be
added afterwards with *_ext_add() calls reallocating the extension
space and leaving the now invalid pointer in the expectations list
that is later accessed while rem
net: atl1c: fix soft lockup on out-of-range tpd_cons read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: atl1c: fix soft lockup on out-of-range tpd_cons read
The hardware can report an out-of-range tpd_cons (seen as 0xffff)
while the PCIe link/MAC is resetting. An out-of-range value can
never be reached and the loop below would spin forever. To avoid
a soft lockup treat it as "nothing new to clean" instead.
Reproduced on two machines, same NIC (Qualcomm Atheros AR8151 v2.0,
4-port), triggered by rebooting a Mikrotik CCR2004 PCIe card that
the ports are directly linked to:
- Ubuntu 26.04.1 LTS, kernel 7.0.0-31-generic. The link-flap

net: atl1e: fix soft lockup on out-of-range hw_next_to_clean read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: atl1e: fix soft lockup on out-of-range hw_next_to_clean read
Same issue as atl1c (see the first commit in this series, "net:
atl1c: fix soft lockup on out-of-range tpd_cons read"): the hardware
can report an out-of-range hw_next_to_clean (seen as 0xffff) while
the PCIe link/MAC is resetting. An out-of-range value can never be
reached and the loop below would spin forever. Treat it as "nothing
new to clean" instead.
net: ena: fix MMIO read buffer leak on probe failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ena: fix MMIO read buffer leak on probe failure
ena_device_init() initializes the MMIO read mechanism with
ena_com_mmio_reg_read_request_init(), which allocates a coherent DMA
buffer for MMIO read responses.
The normal removal path releases this buffer through
ena_com_mmio_reg_read_request_destroy(). However, if ena_probe() fails
after ena_device_init() succeeds, the error path destroys the admin
resources and eventually frees ena_dev without destroying the MMIO read
request, leaving the coherent DMA buffer allocated.

netfilter: ip6t_rt: fix zero-address non-strict match out-of-bounds read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ip6t_rt: fix zero-address non-strict match out-of-bounds read
rt_mt6_check() permits rules to be configured with rtinfo->addrnr == 0
even when address matching (IP6T_RT_FST_MASK) is requested.
In the IP6T_RT_FST_NSTRICT path, rt_mt6() evaluates packet routing
addresses against rtinfo->addrs[i] and terminates backwards at the bottom
of the loop:
if (ipv6_addr_equal(ap, &rtinfo->addrs[i])) {
i++;
}
if (i == rtinfo->addrnr)
break;
When addrnr is 0, if the first packet address matches rtinfo->addrs[0],
i is incremented to 1. Because i i
nfc: fix use-after-free in nfc_get_local_general_bytes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: fix use-after-free in nfc_get_local_general_bytes
Commit 6709d4b7bc2e ("net: nfc: Fix use-after-free caused by
nfc_llcp_find_local") attempted to fix a use-after-free (UAF) issue by
invoking nfc_llcp_local_put(local) after accessing local->gb. However,
if the reference count drops to zero, local is freed immediately,
leading to a use-after-free when callers access the returned pointer.
Alternative approaches using dynamic allocation (e.g. kmemdup) introduced
memory leaks because callers consistently treat the returned pointer as
borrowed memory.
Fix this properly by r
nfc: llcp: drop truncated I/RR/RNR PDUs in nfc_llcp_recv_hdlc()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: llcp: drop truncated I/RR/RNR PDUs in nfc_llcp_recv_hdlc()
nfc_llcp_recv_hdlc() reads the sequence byte skb->data[2], via
nfc_llcp_ns()/nfc_llcp_nr(), before any length check. The receive path
only guarantees the two-byte LLCP header -- __nfc_llcp_recv() checks it
with pskb_may_pull() and nfc_llcp_recv_agf() admits two-byte inner PDUs
-- so a two-byte I, RR or RNR PDU reads one byte of uninitialised skb
tailroom. The byte becomes N(R)/N(S); a peer can already set those with
a well-formed PDU, so this is acting on uninitialised memory, not new
peer control.

nfc: port100: reject frames whose declared length exceeds the received data
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: port100: reject frames whose declared length exceeds the received data
port100_recv_response() passes the URB transfer buffer to
port100_rx_frame_is_valid(), which checksums le16_to_cpu(frame->datalen)
bytes of frame->data. datalen is a 16-bit field supplied by the device
and is never checked against the number of bytes actually received
(urb->actual_length), so a device reporting a datalen larger than the
received frame makes port100_data_checksum() read out of bounds past the
transfer buffer.
Reject a response whose declared frame size does not fit the received

scsi: libiscsi_tcp: Check the data direction of a Data-In PDU
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: libiscsi_tcp: Check the data direction of a Data-In PDU
The Data-In branch of iscsi_tcp_hdr_dissect() resolves the ITT to a task
and copies the PDU's data segment into that command's scatterlist without
asking whether the command was reading. iscsi_tcp_r2t_rsp() in the same
file does ask, and rejects an R2T for a command that is not DMA_TO_DEVICE.
A target that answers a WRITE command's ITT with a Data-In therefore has
the initiator write target-supplied bytes into the pages that write was
about to send. Those are the caller's own pinned pages for an O_DIRECT
write,
Bluetooth: hci_sock: validate event length before filtering
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_sock: validate event length before filtering
is_filtered_packet() reads the event code from skb->data[0] without first
checking that the skb is nonempty. When an opcode filter is configured,
it also reads the command opcode at offsets 3 or 4 without checking that
a Command Complete or Command Status event is long enough.
hci_send_to_sock() invokes the filter before hci_event_packet() validates
the event header. A malformed event supplied by a controller or a vhci
device can therefore cause an out-of-bounds read.
Keep the unmasked event code for the opcode c
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_sock: reject out-of-range OCF values
The raw HCI socket security filter has 128 OCF bits per supported OGF,
but masks the 10-bit OCF with 127 before looking up the command. An
unprivileged socket can therefore submit a reserved OCF that aliases an
allowlisted command modulo 128.
A conforming controller should reject reserved opcodes. Nevertheless,
the security decision must apply to the opcode that will actually be
sent, especially since controller-specific behavior is outside the host
stack's control.
Reject OCF values that cannot be represented by the sec
Bluetooth: L2CAP: validate frame length before control and FCS access
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: validate frame length before control and FCS access
l2cap_data_rcv() unpacks either a two-byte or four-byte control field
without first ensuring that it is present. A short ERTM or streaming-mode
frame can therefore cause an out-of-bounds read.
There is a second short-frame case when CRC16 is enabled. After the
control field is pulled, l2cap_check_fcs() subtracts two from skb->len
without checking it. If fewer than two bytes remain, the subtraction
wraps; skb_trim() leaves the buffer unchanged and the subsequent FCS
load reads past the logical end of the
Bluetooth: mgmt: fix race in read_unconf_index_list()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: mgmt: fix race in read_unconf_index_list()
read_unconf_index_list() counts unconfigured controllers before allocating
its response, then checks the device flags again while filling it.
hci_dev_list_lock stabilizes list membership, but it does not serialize the
per-device flags. During asynchronous controller setup, the worker can set
HCI_UNCONFIGURED and clear HCI_SETUP between the two passes. A controller
omitted from the allocation count can then become eligible for the fill
pass, causing an out-of-bounds write to rp->index[].

Bluetooth: RFCOMM: fix NULL dereference of dlc->session in RFCOMM_CONNINFO
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: RFCOMM: fix NULL dereference of dlc->session in RFCOMM_CONNINFO
The RFCOMM_CONNINFO getsockopt handler accepts a socket that is not
connected as long as deferred setup is enabled:
if (sk->sk_state != BT_CONNECTED &&
!rfcomm_pi(sk)->dlc->defer_setup) {
err = -ENOTCONN;
break;
}
l2cap_sk = rfcomm_pi(sk)->dlc->session->sock->sk;
dlc->defer_setup is set in rfcomm_sock_init() when rfcomm_connect_ind()
creates a child socket for an incoming connection on a listening socket
that has BT_DEFER_SETUP enabled. It is never cleared afterwards. The

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix create context out-of-bounds reads
smb2_parse_contexts() validates the complete create-context area but
does not limit each record to its Next field before dispatching it. A
malformed chain can therefore expose bytes beyond the current context to
a handler. The QFid handler also used a full response-structure cast
although it only reads DiskFileId.
The SMB2/SMB3 lease parsers made the same layout assumption: they read
LeaseState and LeaseFlags at canonical offsets rather than at
DataOffset. A valid non-canonical DataOffset could therefore yield
unrelate
smb: client: use finish_no_open() for non-regular inodes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: use finish_no_open() for non-regular inodes
An O_CREAT open can find an existing symlink or another non-regular
inode. cifs_atomic_open() calls finish_open() on it and attaches a
cifsFileInfo. Symlink inodes have no CIFS release operation, so the
dentry reference held by cifsFileInfo is leaked. FMODE_OPENED also
prevents the VFS from following the symlink.
Track whether cifs_do_create() returned an open server handle. For
non-regular inodes, close the handle if present, remove the pending
open, and call finish_no_open() so the VFS can continue the lookup.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb/server: cancel async requests when closing connection
An async request may still be waiting when a connection is closed.
This can stop the connection from closing.
Cancel active async requests before waiting for them to finish.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
accel/amdxdna: Disable device buffer exporting
Device buffers are never intended to be exported. Disable exporting

ipv4: validate checksum_start before completing checksum
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: validate checksum_start before completing checksum
If a packet with bad checksum metadata gets into the ipv4 stack,
skb_checksum_help can corrupt the network header and cause a bunch of
mischief.
This was discovered and reported by Paulos, and has been reporoduced
by others independently since.
We really shouldn't allow such packets in, but as a defence
in depth measure, let's also check before we complete the checksum.
A more complete validation at input is forthcoming, but needs more work.
