In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: nVMX: Hide shadow VMCS right after VMCLEAR
free_nested() frees the shadow VMCS while vmcs01 still points to it. But
because it is asynchronous with respect to loaded_vmcs_clear(), the vCPU
might migrate before the pointer is cleared and __loaded_vmcs_clear()
may then execute VMCLEAR.
The VMCS needs to stay attached until its explicit VMCLEAR completes, but
then it can be hidden and the page safely freed.
Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix use-after-free in l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix use-after-free in l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb()
l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb() returned l2cap_pi(sk)->chan after
release_sock(parent). Once the parent lock is dropped the newly
enqueued child socket sk is reachable via the accept queue, so another
task can accept and free it before the callback dereferences sk,
resulting in a use-after-free.
Rework the ->new_connection() op so the core, rather than the callback,
owns the child channel's lifetime. The op now receives a pre-allocated
new_chan and returns an errno instead of allocating and returning a

sctp: validate STALE_COOKIE cause length before reading staleness
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: validate STALE_COOKIE cause length before reading staleness
When an ERROR chunk with a STALE_COOKIE cause is received in the
COOKIE_ECHOED state, sctp_sf_do_5_2_6_stale() reads the 4-byte Measure
of Staleness that follows the cause header:
err = (struct sctp_errhdr *)(chunk->skb->data);
stale = ntohl(*(__be32 *)((u8 *)err + sizeof(*err)));
err is the first cause in the chunk, not the STALE_COOKIE cause that
caused the dispatch, and nothing guarantees the staleness field is
present. sctp_walk_errors() only requires a cause to be as long as the
4-byte header, so f
Bluetooth: bpa10x: avoid OOB read of revision string in bpa10x_setup()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: bpa10x: avoid OOB read of revision string in bpa10x_setup()
bpa10x_setup() sends the vendor command 0xfc0e and passes the response
to bt_dev_info() and hci_set_fw_info() as a "%s" string starting at
skb->data + 1, without checking the length:
bt_dev_info(hdev, "%s", (char *)(skb->data + 1));
hci_set_fw_info(hdev, "%s", skb->data + 1);
A device that returns a one-byte response (status only) leaves
skb->data + 1 past the end of the data, and the %s walk reads adjacent
slab memory until it meets a NUL. The same happens when the payload is
not NUL-terminated with

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: net1080: validate packet_len before pad-byte access in rx_fixup
For an even packet_len, net1080_rx_fixup() reads the pad byte at
skb->data[packet_len] before the skb->len != packet_len check further
down, and packet_len is only bounded against NC_MAX_PACKET. A malicious
NetChip 1080 device can send a short frame advertising a large even
packet_len (e.g. 0x4000), so the pad-byte read lands past the end of the

drm/edid: fix OOB read in drm_parse_tiled_block()
drm_parse_tiled_block() casts the DisplayID block to a
struct displayid_tiled_block and reads the full fixed layout up to
tile->topology_id[7] without checking block->num_bytes. The DisplayID
iterator only validates the declared payload length, so a crafted EDID
can advertise a tiled-display block (tag DATA_BLOCK_TILED_DISPLAY, or
DATA_BLOCK_2_TILED_DISPLAY_TOPOLOGY for v2.0) with a small num_bytes at
the end of a DisplayID extension. The read then runs past the end of the

crypto: asymmetric_keys - fix OOB read in pefile_digest_pe_contents
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: asymmetric_keys - fix OOB read in pefile_digest_pe_contents
pefile_digest_pe_contents() computes the trailing-data hash length as
pelen - (hashed_bytes + certs_size). A crafted PE can make the addition
exceed pelen, causing the unsigned subtraction to underflow to ~4 GiB.
This is passed to crypto_shash_update() which reads out of bounds and
panics on unmapped vmalloc guard pages.

usbnet: gl620a: fix out-of-bounds read in genelink_rx_fixup()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usbnet: gl620a: fix out-of-bounds read in genelink_rx_fixup()
genelink_rx_fixup() splits an aggregated RX frame into its individual
packets, using a per-packet length taken from device-supplied data. That
length is only bounded by GL_MAX_PACKET_LEN (1514); it is never compared
against how many bytes were actually received.
A malicious GeneLink (GL620A) device can therefore send a short URB whose
header claims packet_count > 1 and a first packet of up to 1514 bytes.
skb_put_data(gl_skb, packet->packet_data, size);

Bluetooth: eir: Fix stack OOB write when prepending the Flags AD
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: eir: Fix stack OOB write when prepending the Flags AD
eir_create_adv_data() builds the advertising data into a fixed-size
buffer ("size", 31 for the legacy path). It may prepend a 3-byte "Flags"
AD structure (LE_AD_NO_BREDR on an LE-only controller) and then copies
the per-instance data without checking that it still fits:
memcpy(ptr, adv->adv_data, adv->adv_data_len);
tlv_data_max_len() only reserves those 3 bytes when the user-supplied
flags carry a managed-flags bit, so an instance added with flags == 0 is
accepted with adv_data_len up to the full buffer. A

crypto: qat - remove unused character device and IOCTLs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: qat - remove unused character device and IOCTLs
The QAT driver exposes a character device (qat_adf_ctl) with IOCTLs
for device configuration, start, stop, status query and enumeration.
These IOCTLs are not part of any public uAPI header and have no known
in-tree or out-of-tree users. Device lifecycle is already managed via
sysfs.
The ioctl interface also increases the attack surface and is the
subject of a number of bug reports.
Remove the character device, the IOCTL definitions, and the related
data structures (adf_dev_status_info, adf_user_cfg_key_val,

iio: accel: bmc150: clamp the device-reported FIFO frame count
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: accel: bmc150: clamp the device-reported FIFO frame count
__bmc150_accel_fifo_flush() copies the number of samples the device
reports in its hardware FIFO into an on-stack buffer
u16 buffer[BMC150_ACCEL_FIFO_LENGTH * 3];
which is sized for at most BMC150_ACCEL_FIFO_LENGTH (32) samples. The
frame count is read from the FIFO_STATUS register and only masked to its
7 valid bits:
count = val & 0x7F;
so it can be 0..127. The only other limit applied to it is the optional
caller-supplied sample budget:
if (samples && count > samples)
count = samples;
which does not
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: event: Fix event FIFO reset race
`iio_event_getfd()` creates the event file descriptor with
`anon_inode_getfd()`, which allocates a new fd, creates the anonymous
file and installs it in the process fd table before returning to the
caller.
The IIO code resets the event FIFO after `anon_inode_getfd()` has returned,
but before `IIO_GET_EVENT_FD_IOCTL` has copied the fd number to userspace.
But since fd tables are shared between threads, another thread can guess
the newly allocated fd number and issue a `read()` on it as soon as the fd
has been installed.
This means the

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bmg160_get_filter() walks bmg160_samp_freq_table[] looking for the entry
matching the bw_bits value read from the chip:

break;
}
*val = bmg160_samp_freq_table[i].filter;
If no entry matches, i ends up equal to the array size and the next line
reads one slot past the end. bmg160_set_filter() has the same shape, driven
by 'val' instead of bw_bits.

snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails. In
