In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: v: stop OGMv2 on disabled interface
When a batadv_hard_iface is disabled, its mesh_iface pointer is set to
NULL. However, batadv_v_ogm_send_meshif() may still dispatch OGMs via
batadv_v_ogm_queue_on_if() for interfaces that have since lost their
mesh_iface association. This results in a NULL pointer dereference when
batadv_v_ogm_queue_on_if() unconditionally calls netdev_priv() on the
now NULL hard_iface->mesh_iface to retrieve the batadv_priv.
It is necessary to ensure that the batadv_v_ogm_queue_on_if() checks that
it is using the same mesh_iface for which ba
netfilter: nf_queue: hold bridge skb->dev while queued
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_queue: hold bridge skb->dev while queued
br_pass_frame_up() rewrites skb->dev from the ingress port to the bridge
master before queueing bridge LOCAL_IN packets. NFQUEUE only holds
references on state.in/out and bridge physdevs, so a queued bridge
packet can retain a freed bridge master in skb->dev until reinjection.
When the verdict is reinjected later, br_netif_receive_skb() re-enters
the receive path with skb->dev still pointing at the freed bridge master,
triggering a use-after-free.
Store skb->dev in the queue entry, hold a reference on it for the queue
bpf: Free reuseport cBPF prog after RCU grace period.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Free reuseport cBPF prog after RCU grace period.
Eulgyu Kim reported the splat below with a repro. [0]
The repro sets up a UDP reuseport group with a cBPF prog and
replaces it with a new one while another thread is sending
a UDP packet to the group.
The reuseport prog is freed by sk_reuseport_prog_free().
bpf_prog_put() is called for "e"BPF prog to destruct through
multiple stages while cBPF prog is freed immediately by
bpf_release_orig_filter() and bpf_prog_free().
If a reuseport prog is detached from the setsockopt() path

ip6_vti: set netns_immutable on the fallback device.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip6_vti: set netns_immutable on the fallback device.
john1988 and Noam Rathaus reported that vti6_init_net() does not set the
netns_immutable flag on the per-netns fallback tunnel device (ip6_vti0).
Other similar tunnel drivers (like ip6_tunnel, sit, ip6_gre, and ip_tunnel)
correctly set this flag during their fallback device initialization to
prevent them from being moved to another network namespace.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
apparmor: fix rlimit for posix cpu timers
Posix cpu timers requires an additional step beyond setting the rlimit.
Refactor the code so its clear when what code is setting the
limit and conditionally update the posix cpu timers when appropriate.
tun: free page on build_skb failure in tun_xdp_one()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tun: free page on build_skb failure in tun_xdp_one()
When build_skb() fails in tun_xdp_one(), the function sets ret to
-ENOMEM and jumps to the out label, which returns without freeing the
page that vhost_net_build_xdp() allocated for the frame. As with the
short-frame rejection path, tun_sendmsg() discards the per-buffer error
and still returns total_len, so vhost_tx_batch() takes the success path
and never frees the page. Each build_skb() failure in a batch leaks one
page-frag chunk.
Free the page before taking the error path, matching the put_page() the
other error exit
tap: free page on error paths in tap_get_user_xdp()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tap: free page on error paths in tap_get_user_xdp()
tap_get_user_xdp() rejects a frame shorter than ETH_HLEN with -EINVAL,
and returns -ENOMEM when build_skb() fails. Both paths jump to the err
label without freeing the page that vhost_net_build_xdp() allocated for
the frame. tap_sendmsg() discards the per-buffer return value and always
returns 0, so vhost_tx_batch() takes the success path and never frees
the page; each rejected frame in a batch leaks one page-frag chunk.
Free the page on both error paths, before the skb is built. This is the
tap counterpart of the same le
media: videobuf2: Set vma_flags in vb2_dma_sg_mmap
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: videobuf2: Set vma_flags in vb2_dma_sg_mmap
vb2_dma_contig sets VMA flags VM_DONTEXPAND and VM_DONTDUMP and I do not
see a reason why vb2_dma_sg should behave differently. This avoids
hitting `WARN_ON(!(vma->vm_flags & VM_DONTEXPAND));` in
drm_gem_mmap_obj() during mmap() of an imported dma-buf from the out of
tree Apple ISP camera capture driver which uses vb2_dma_sg_memops.

nvmet: avoid recursive nvmet-wq flush in nvmet_ctrl_free
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nvmet_tcp_release_queue_work() runs on nvmet-wq and can drop the

isofs: validate Rock Ridge CE continuation extent against volume size
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
isofs: validate Rock Ridge CE continuation extent against volume size
rock_continue() reads rs->cont_extent verbatim from the Rock Ridge CE
record and passes it to sb_bread() without checking that the block
number is within the mounted ISO 9660 volume. commit e595447e177b
("[PATCH] rock.c: handle corrupted directories") added cont_offset
and cont_size rejection for the CE continuation but did not validate
the extent block number itself. commit f54e18f1b831 ("isofs: Fix
infinite looping over CE entries") later capped the CE chain length
at RR_MAX_CE_ENTRIES = 32 but again
selinux: allow multiple opens of /sys/fs/selinux/policy
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
selinux: allow multiple opens of /sys/fs/selinux/policy
Currently there can only be a single open of /sys/fs/selinux/policy at
any time. This allows any process to block any other process from
reading the kernel policy. The original motivation seems to have been
a mix of preventing an inconsistent view of the policy size and
preventing userspace from allocating kernel memory without bound, but
this is arguably equally bad. Eliminate the policy_opened flag and
shrink the critical section that the policy mutex is held. While we
are making changes here, drop a couple of extran

hfsplus: fix held lock freed on hfsplus_fill_super()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hfsplus: fix held lock freed on hfsplus_fill_super()
hfsplus_fill_super() calls hfs_find_init() to initialize a search
structure, which acquires tree->tree_lock. If the subsequent call to
hfsplus_cat_build_key() fails, the function jumps to the out_put_root
error label without releasing the lock. The later cleanup path then
frees the tree data structure with the lock still held, triggering a
held lock freed warning.
Fix this by adding the missing hfs_find_exit(&fd) call before jumping
to the out_put_root error label. This ensures that tree->tree_lock is
properly released o

dm: fix a buffer overflow in ioctl processing
Tony Asleson (using Claude) found a buffer overflow in dm-ioctl in the
function retrieve_status:
1. The code in retrieve_status checks that the output string fits into
the output buffer and writes the output string there
2. Then, the code aligns the "outptr" variable to the next 8-byte
boundary:
outptr = align_ptr(outptr);
3. The alignment doesn't check overflow, so outptr could point past the
buffer end
4. The "for" loop is iterated again, it executes:
remaining = len - (outptr - outbuf);
5. If "outptr" points past
pmdomain: core: Fix detach procedure for virtual devices in genpd
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pmdomain: core: Fix detach procedure for virtual devices in genpd
If a device is attached to a PM domain through genpd_dev_pm_attach_by_id(),
genpd calls pm_runtime_enable() for the corresponding virtual device that
it registers. While this avoids boilerplate code in drivers, there is no
corresponding call to pm_runtime_disable() in genpd_dev_pm_detach().
This means these virtual devices are typically detached from its genpd,
while runtime PM remains enabled for them, which is not how things are
designed to work. In worst cases it may lead to critical errors, like a

Bluetooth: hci_uart: fix UAFs and race conditions in close and init paths
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_uart: fix UAFs and race conditions in close and init paths
Vulnerabilities leading to Use-After-Free (UAF) and Null Pointer
Dereference (NPD) conditions were observed in the lifecycle management
of hci_uart.
The primary issue arises because the workqueues (init_ready and
write_work) are only flushed/cancelled if the HCI_UART_PROTO_READY
flag is set during TTY close. If a hangup occurs before setup completes,
hci_uart_tty_close() skips the teardown of these workqueues and
proceeds to free the `hu` struct. When the scheduled work executes
later, it blindly der

drm/vkms: Convert to DRM's vblank timer
Replace vkms' vblank timer with the DRM implementation. The DRM
code is identical in concept, but differs in implementation.
Vblank timers are covered in vblank helpers and initializer macros,
so remove the corresponding hrtimer in struct vkms_output. The
vblank timer calls vkms' custom timeout code via handle_vblank_timeout
in struct drm_crtc_helper_funcs.
