In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
caif: fix integer underflow in cffrml_receive()
The cffrml_receive() function extracts a length field from the packet
header and, when FCS is disabled, subtracts 2 from this length without
validating that len >= 2.
If an attacker sends a malicious packet with a length field of 0 or 1
to an interface with FCS disabled, the subtraction causes an integer
underflow.
This can lead to memory exhaustion and kernel instability, potential
information disclosure if padding contains uninitialized kernel memory.
Fix this by validating that len >= 2 before performing the subtraction.
char: applicom: fix NULL pointer dereference in ac_ioctl
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
char: applicom: fix NULL pointer dereference in ac_ioctl
Discovered by Atuin - Automated Vulnerability Discovery Engine.
In ac_ioctl, the validation of IndexCard and the check for a valid
RamIO pointer are skipped when cmd is 6. However, the function
unconditionally executes readb(apbs[IndexCard].RamIO + VERS) at the
end.
If cmd is 6, IndexCard may reference a board that does not exist
(where RamIO is NULL), leading to a NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by skipping the readb access when cmd is 6, as this
command is a global information query and does not target a speci

ethtool: Avoid overflowing userspace buffer on stats query
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ethtool: Avoid overflowing userspace buffer on stats query
The ethtool -S command operates across three ioctl calls:
ETHTOOL_GSSET_INFO for the size, ETHTOOL_GSTRINGS for the names, and
ETHTOOL_GSTATS for the values.
If the number of stats changes between these calls (e.g., due to device
reconfiguration), userspace's buffer allocation will be incorrect,
potentially leading to buffer overflow.
Drivers are generally expected to maintain stable stat counts, but some
drivers (e.g., mlx5, bnx2x, bna, ksz884x) use dynamic counters, making
this scenario possible.
Some drivers t
fsnotify: do not generate ACCESS/MODIFY events on child for special files
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fsnotify: do not generate ACCESS/MODIFY events on child for special files
inotify/fanotify do not allow users with no read access to a file to
subscribe to events (e.g. IN_ACCESS/IN_MODIFY), but they do allow the
same user to subscribe for watching events on children when the user
has access to the parent directory (e.g. /dev).
Users with no read access to a file but with read access to its parent
directory can still stat the file and see if it was accessed/modified
via atime/mtime change.
The same is not true for special files (e.g. /dev/null). Users will not

usb: phy: fsl-usb: Fix use-after-free in delayed work during device removal
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: phy: fsl-usb: Fix use-after-free in delayed work during device removal
The delayed work item otg_event is initialized in fsl_otg_conf() and
scheduled under two conditions:
1. When a host controller binds to the OTG controller.
2. When the USB ID pin state changes (cable insertion/removal).
A race condition occurs when the device is removed via fsl_otg_remove():
the fsl_otg instance may be freed while the delayed work is still pending
or executing. This leads to use-after-free when the work function
fsl_otg_event() accesses the already freed memory.

sched/deadline: only set free_cpus for online runqueues
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/deadline: only set free_cpus for online runqueues
Commit 16b269436b72 ("sched/deadline: Modify cpudl::free_cpus
to reflect rd->online") introduced the cpudl_set/clear_freecpu
functions to allow the cpu_dl::free_cpus mask to be manipulated
by the deadline scheduler class rq_on/offline callbacks so the
mask would also reflect this state.
Commit 9659e1eeee28 ("sched/deadline: Remove cpu_active_mask
from cpudl_find()") removed the check of the cpu_active_mask to
save some processing on the premise that the cpudl::free_cpus
mask already reflected the runqueue online state
Input: ti_am335x_tsc - fix off-by-one error in wire_order validation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: ti_am335x_tsc - fix off-by-one error in wire_order validation
The current validation 'wire_order[i] > ARRAY_SIZE(config_pins)' allows
wire_order[i] to equal ARRAY_SIZE(config_pins), which causes out-of-bounds
access when used as index in 'config_pins[wire_order[i]]'.
Since config_pins has 4 elements (indices 0-3), the valid range for
wire_order should be 0-3. Fix the off-by-one error by using >= instead
of > in the validation check.

ocfs2: fix kernel BUG in ocfs2_find_victim_chain
syzbot reported a kernel BUG in ocfs2_find_victim_chain() because the
`cl_next_free_rec` field of the allocation chain list (next free slot in

hfsplus: Verify inode mode when loading from disk
syzbot is reporting that S_IFMT bits of inode->i_mode can become bogus when
the S_IFMT bits of the 16bits "mode" field loaded from disk are corrupted.
According to [1], the permissions field was treated as reserved in Mac OS
8 and 9. According to [2], the reserved field was explicitly initialized
with 0, and that field must remain 0 as long as reserved. Therefore, when
the "mode" field is not 0 (i.e. no longer reserved), the file must be
S_IFDIR if dir == 1, and the file must be one of S_IFREG/S_IFLNK/S_IFCHR/

wifi: rtl818x: Fix potential memory leaks in rtl8180_init_rx_ring()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtl818x: Fix potential memory leaks in rtl8180_init_rx_ring()
In rtl8180_init_rx_ring(), memory is allocated for skb packets and DMA
allocations in a loop. When an allocation fails, the previously
successful allocations are not freed on exit.
Fix that by jumping to err_free_rings label on error, which calls
rtl8180_free_rx_ring() to free the allocations. Remove the free of
rx_ring in rtl8180_init_rx_ring() error path, and set the freed
priv->rx_buf entry to null, to avoid double free.

dm: fix a race condition in retrieve_deps
There's a race condition in the multipath target when retrieve_deps
races with multipath_message calling dm_get_device and dm_put_device.

but multipath may add or remove devices to the list while it is
running. The end result may be memory corruption or use-after-free
memory access.

arm64: set __exception_irq_entry with __irq_entry as a default
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: set __exception_irq_entry with __irq_entry as a default
filter_irq_stacks() is supposed to cut entries which are related irq entries
from its call stack.
And in_irqentry_text() which is called by filter_irq_stacks()
uses __irqentry_text_start/end symbol to find irq entries in callstack.
But it doesn't work correctly as without "CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER",
arm64 kernel doesn't include gic_handle_irq which is entry point of arm64 irq
between __irqentry_text_start and __irqentry_text_end as we discussed in below link.
