In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: Fix hotplug-suspend race during reboot
During system reboot, cpufreq_suspend() is called via the
kernel_restart() -> device_shutdown() path. Unlike the normal system
suspend path, the reboot path does not call freeze_processes(), so
userspace processes and kernel threads remain active.
This allows CPU hotplug operations to run concurrently with
cpufreq_suspend(). The original code has no synchronization with CPU
hotplug, leading to a race condition where governor_data can be freed
by the hotplug path while cpufreq_suspend() is still accessing it,
resulting in a nu
cpufreq: pcc: fix use-after-free and double free in _OSC evaluation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: pcc: fix use-after-free and double free in _OSC evaluation
pcc_cpufreq_do_osc() calls acpi_evaluate_object() twice for the
two-phase _OSC negotiation. Between the two calls it freed
output.pointer but left output.length unchanged. Since
acpi_evaluate_object() treats a non-zero length with a non-NULL
pointer as an existing buffer to write into, the second call wrote
into freed memory (use-after-free). The subsequent kfree(output.pointer)
at out_free then freed the same pointer a second time (double free).
Reset output.pointer to NULL and output.length to ACPI_ALLOC
proc: protect ptrace_may_access() with exec_update_lock (part 1)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
proc: protect ptrace_may_access() with exec_update_lock (part 1)
Fix the easy cases where procfs currently calls ptrace_may_access() without
exec_update_lock protection, where the fix is to simply add the extra lock
or use mm_access():
- do_task_stat(): grab exec_update_lock
- proc_pid_wchan(): grab exec_update_lock
- proc_map_files_lookup(): use mm_access() instead of get_task_mm()
- proc_map_files_readdir(): use mm_access() instead of get_task_mm()
- proc_ns_get_link(): grab exec_update_lock
- proc_ns_readlink(): grab exec_update_lock
posix-cpu-timers: Fix pid refcount leak in do_cpu_nanosleep() error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
posix-cpu-timers: Fix pid refcount leak in do_cpu_nanosleep() error path
In do_cpu_nanosleep(), posix_cpu_timer_create() takes a pid reference
via get_pid() and stores it in timer.it.cpu.pid. If the subsequent
posix_cpu_timer_set() call fails, the function returns immediately
without calling posix_cpu_timer_del() to release the pid reference,
causing a leak.
Fix it by calling posix_cpu_timer_del() before the unlock-and-return
on the error path, consistent with the other exit paths in the same
function.
HID: appleir: fix UAF on pending key_up_timer in remove()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: appleir: fix UAF on pending key_up_timer in remove()
appleir_remove() runs hid_hw_stop() before timer_delete_sync().
hid_hw_stop() synchronously unregisters the HID input device via
hid_disconnect() -> hidinput_disconnect() -> input_unregister_device(),
which drops the last reference and frees the underlying input_dev when
no userspace handle holds it open.
key_up_tick() reads appleir->input_dev and calls input_report_key() /
input_sync() on it. The timer is armed from appleir_raw_event() with
a HZ/8 (~125 ms) timeout on every keydown and key-repeat report. If a

net: usb: kalmia: bound RX frame length in kalmia_rx_fixup()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: kalmia: bound RX frame length in kalmia_rx_fixup()
kalmia_rx_fixup() computes usb_packet_length = skb->len - (2 *
KALMIA_HEADER_LENGTH) as a u16, guarded only by a pre-loop check that
skb->len is at least KALMIA_HEADER_LENGTH, which is 6. A device can
deliver a short bulk-IN frame with skb->len in the 6 to 11 range, or
leave a short trailing remainder on a later loop iteration. Either case
underflows usb_packet_length to about 65530.
That bypasses the usb_packet_length < ether_packet_length truncation path.
The device-supplied ether_packet_length, a le16 up to 65
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: free iso schedules on failed submit
EHCI and FOTG210 isochronous submits build an ehci_iso_sched before
linking the URB to the endpoint queue, and keep the staged schedule in
urb->hcpriv until iso_stream_schedule() and the link helpers consume it.
If the controller is no longer accessible, or usb_hcd_link_urb_to_ep()
fails, submit jumps to done_not_linked before that handoff happens and
leaks the staged schedule still attached to urb->hcpriv.
Free the staged schedule from done_not_linked when submit fails before
the URB is linked and clear urb->hcpriv after the free.
usb: gadget: composite: fix dead empty check in the USB_DT_OTG handler
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: composite: fix dead empty check in the USB_DT_OTG handler
The OTG branch of composite_setup() falls back to the first
configuration when none is selected:
if (cdev->config)
config = cdev->config;
else
config = list_first_entry(&cdev->configs,
struct usb_configuration, list);
if (!config)
goto done;
...
memcpy(req->buf, config->descriptors[0], value);
list_first_entry() never returns NULL. On an empty list it returns
container_of() of the list head. So the "if (!config)" check is dead.
When cdev->configs is empty, config points at the head i
usb: gadget: udc: Fix use-after-free in gadget_match_driver
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: udc: Fix use-after-free in gadget_match_driver
The udc structure acts as the management structure for the gadget,
but their lifecycles are decoupled. A race condition exists where
usb_del_gadget() frees the udc memory (e.g., via mode-switch work)
while gadget_match_driver() concurrently accesses the freed udc memory
(e.g., via configfs), causing a Use-After-Free (UAF) that triggers a
NULL pointer dereference when the freed memory is zeroed:

usb: gadget: f_printer: take kref only for successful open
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_printer: take kref only for successful open
printer_open() returns -EBUSY when the character device is already
open, but it increments dev->kref regardless of the return value. VFS
does not call ->release() for a failed open, so every rejected second
open permanently leaks one reference.
Move kref_get() into the successful-open branch.

USB: serial: digi_acceleport: fix broken rx after throttle
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: digi_acceleport: fix broken rx after throttle
If the port is closed while throttled, the read urb is never resubmitted
and the port will not receive any further data until the device is
reconnected (or the driver is rebound).
Clear the throttle flags and submit the urb if needed when opening the
port.
USB: serial: digi_acceleport: fix hard lockup on disconnect
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: digi_acceleport: fix hard lockup on disconnect
If submitting the OOB write urb fails persistently (e.g if the device is
being disconnected) the driver would loop indefinitely with interrupts
disabled.
Check for urb submission errors when sending OOB commands to avoid
hanging if, for example, open(), set_termios() or close() races with a
physical disconnect.
This is issue was flagged by Sashiko when reviewing an unrelated change
to the driver.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: digi_acceleport: fix write buffer corruption
The digi_write_inb_command() is supposed to wait for the write urb to
become available or return an error, but instead it updates the transfer
buffer and tries to resubmit the urb on timeout.
To make things worse, for commands like break control where no timeout
is used, the driver would corrupt the urb immediately due to a broken
jiffies comparison (on 32-bit machines this takes five minutes of uptime
to trigger due to INITIAL_JIFFIES).
Fix this by adding the missing return on timeout and waiting
indefinitely when
USB: ulpi: fix memory leak on registration failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: ulpi: fix memory leak on registration failure
The allocated device name is never freed on early ULPI device
registration failures.
Fix this by initialising the device structure earlier and releasing the
initial reference whenever registration fails.
