Bluetooth: RFCOMM: validate skb length in rfcomm_recv_frame
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: RFCOMM: validate skb length in rfcomm_recv_frame
rfcomm_recv_frame() casts skb->data to struct rfcomm_hdr and dereferences
hdr->addr and hdr->ctrl without validating skb->len first. A truncated
frame with skb->len less than the minimum header size causes an
out-of-bounds read of uninitialized memory. Additionally, a zero-length
frame causes skb->len-- to underflow to UINT_MAX, making
skb_tail_pointer() read far past the buffer.
Commit 23882b828c3c ("Bluetooth: RFCOMM: validate skb length in MCC
handlers") fixed the same class of missing-length-check bugs in the
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vhost-scsi: flush backend after device ioctls
vhost-scsi translates guest response descriptors into userspace iovecs
when commands are submitted. Target-core completes those commands
asynchronously, so VHOST_SET_MEM_TABLE can replace the memory table while
an in-flight command still retains response iovecs translated through the
old table.
If the old mapping is reused after VHOST_SET_MEM_TABLE returns, command
completion can write the response to an unrelated userspace object.
Flush the vhost-scsi backend after vhost_dev_ioctl() handles a device
ioctl. This waits for in
scsi: core: Do not block on tag allocation in scsi_eh_lock_door()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: core: Do not block on tag allocation in scsi_eh_lock_door()
scsi_eh_lock_door() is called from scsi_restart_operations() while the
host is still in the SHOST_RECOVERY state, i.e. before the host is
switched back to SHOST_RUNNING and scsi_run_host_queues() restarts the
queues. It allocates a request via scsi_alloc_request() with no flags,
so blk_mq_get_tag() may block waiting for a free sched tag when all tags
are already in use.
Those tags can be held by commands that were just requeued by
scsi_eh_flush_done_q() during error handling. Such commands cannot be

netfilter: nfnetlink_log: wait for rcu grace period before freeing pernet state
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nfnetlink_log: wait for rcu grace period before freeing pernet state
sashiko reports: "nfnl_log_net_exit() calls nf_log_unset(), which
clears the logger pointer without an RCU grace period. Immediately after,
ops_free_list() frees the per-net state while concurrent packets might
still be executing nf_log_packet() under rcu_read_lock()."
Clear the pointer via .pre_exit to make sure rcu readers have completed
before pernet storage is free'd. The change in nf_log_syslog.c is only
done for consistency: it doesn't use pernet data.
i2c: smbus: reject oversized block transfers in the common path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: smbus: reject oversized block transfers in the common path
The SMBus block transfer length data->block[0] is validated in
i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated() but that check runs too late for tracepoints
and is skipped entirely when the adapter provides a native smbus_xfer
implementation. This allows user-controlled oversized block lengths to
reach tracepoint memcpy calls and driver callbacks unchecked.
Add an early validation in __i2c_smbus_xfer() that rejects block
transfers whose caller-supplied length is zero or exceeds
I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX before any tracepoint fires or driv
net: appletalk: fix NULL pointer dereference in aarp_send_ddp()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: appletalk: fix NULL pointer dereference in aarp_send_ddp()
aarp_send_ddp() calls atalk_find_dev_addr(dev) in the LocalTalk fast
path without checking for NULL. When the device has no AppleTalk
interface configured (dev->atalk_ptr == NULL), this leads to a NULL
pointer dereference at the at->s_net access.

ksmbd: fix maximum allowed access checks
The DACL permission check looks for an ACE matching the current user and
falls back to the Everyone ACE. It does not consider an Authenticated
Users ACE, even though an authenticated session is a member of that
well-known group.
As a result, opening a file whose access is granted through S-1-5-11 can
incorrectly fail with STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED. Treat an Authenticated Users
ACE as a fallback entry alongside Everyone.
The maximal access calculation also combines access masks from every ACE,
regardless of whether its SID applies to the
greybus: audio: bound the topology section sizes against the fetched size
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
greybus: audio: bound the topology section sizes against the fetched size
gb_audio_gb_get_topology() fetches a topology blob of a module-supplied
size, and gbaudio_tplg_parse_data() then walks it by adding the
module-supplied size_dais, size_controls and size_widgets fields to
form the control, widget and route section offsets. Those le32 sizes
are never checked against the fetched blob, so a module reporting a
small topology size but large section sizes makes the offsets point
past the allocation, and parsing reads out of bounds.
Reject a topology whose section sizes do n

perf/x86/intel/pt: Fix stop/start with no update
If pt_event_stop() is called without PERF_EF_UPDATE flag, then
perf_aux_output_end() is not called. A subsequent call to pt_event_start()
will call perf_aux_output_begin() again which violates the rule against
nesting and triggers a WARNING in perf_aux_output_begin().
Originally, pt_event_stop() was never called without PERF_EF_UPDATE,
because the only code paths to do so are from event overflow, and Intel PT
does not do that.

pinctrl: bcm2835: Don't remove an unregistered GPIO chip
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: bcm2835: Don't remove an unregistered GPIO chip
If the devm_pinctrl_register() function fails,
bcm2835_pinctrl_probe() calls gpiochip_remove()
before gpiochip_add_data() has registered the GPIO chip.
This means that upon failure the gpio_chip.gpiodev
is NULL resulting in a null pointer dereference
inside the gpiochip_remove() function.
Remove the unnecessary function call to gpiochip_remove().
No GPIO cleanup is required because the GPIO chip
has not yet been registered. Without this change there
is potential for a kernel panic upon registration failure
wifi: ath11k: cap out-of-range rx MCS instead of leaving bogus rate
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: cap out-of-range rx MCS instead of leaving bogus rate
ath11k can receive HT/VHT/HE frames whose reported MCS is above the
maximum that can be expressed in the corresponding mac80211 rate space
(e.g. an HE frame reported with MCS 12, while HE tops out at MCS 11).
The frame itself is valid and decodes correctly, but for such a frame
ath11k_dp_rx_h_rate() leaves rx_status->rate_idx set to the out-of-range
value and never assigns rx_status->encoding, so it stays RX_ENC_LEGACY
from the ath11k_dp_rx_h_ppdu() initialization. Once that frame reaches
mac80211 it trips

ext4: skip extra isize expansion during mount to prevent deadlock
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: skip extra isize expansion during mount to prevent deadlock
ext4_try_to_expand_extra_isize() is called from __ext4_mark_inode_dirty()
while holding an active jbd2 handle. During mount (!SB_ACTIVE), the
expand path may move xattrs to external blocks and release ea_inodes via
iput(). When !SB_ACTIVE, iput() calls write_inode_now() which acquires
s_writepages_rwsem, creating a circular lock dependency:
s_writepages_rwsem --> jbd2_handle --> xattr_sem --> s_writepages_rwsem
This can be triggered via:
ext4_process_orphan() -> ext4_truncate() -> ext4_mark_inode_dir

RDMA/efa: Fix PBL chunk length computation
On register MR, when creating the PBL, if it's an indirect PBL we create
a chunk list to hold the PBL pages pointers. Each chunk is 4KB in size
and can hold 510 addresses (EFA_PTRS_PER_CHUNK) and has a 12-byte
control buffer at the end of it holding the next chunk's pointer and its
length.
If the PBL number of pages is a multiple of EFA_PTRS_PER_CHUNK, the
calculated last chunk length is wrongly computed as 0, even though that
chunk is fully populated with 510 real page pointers. This wrong length
is used both to DMA map the chunk
md/raid5-ppl: fix use-after-free in ppl_do_flush()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid5-ppl: fix use-after-free in ppl_do_flush()
The loop in ppl_do_flush() continues iterating after calling
ppl_io_unit_finished(), touching io->pending_flushes and leading to a
use-after-free.
Add a break statement to stop the loop once io is freed.
locking/lockdep: Fix NULL pointer dereference in __lock_set_class()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
locking/lockdep: Fix NULL pointer dereference in __lock_set_class()
register_lock_class() can return NULL when the lock class pool is
exhausted, graph_lock() fails, or key validation fails. However,
__lock_set_class() uses the return value directly in pointer arithmetic
without a NULL check:
class = register_lock_class(lock, subclass, 0);
hlock->class_idx = class - lock_classes;
If class is NULL, this computes a wild offset that corrupts
hlock->class_idx. The subsequent reacquire_held_locks() call will
invoke hlock_class() with this corrupted index, leading to a NULL
powerpc/xive: propagate IPI init errors to prevent use-after-free
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/xive: propagate IPI init errors to prevent use-after-free
When xive_init_ipis() fails (e.g. irq_domain_alloc_irqs() fails),
the error path frees the global xive_ipis array. However,
xive_smp_probe() previously ignored this failure and proceeded to
call xive_setup_cpu_ipi(), which dereferences the already-freed
xive_ipis pointer -- a use-after-free.
Now that xive_smp_probe() returns int (previous patch), propagate
the error from xive_init_ipis() and xive_setup_cpu_ipi() through
xive_smp_probe(). Check the return value in both pnv_smp_probe()
and pSeries_smp_probe(
arm64: hibernate: mask DAIF before restoring hibernated kernel
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: hibernate: mask DAIF before restoring hibernated kernel
The arm64 hibernate code manages the exception masking in an unsound
way, leading to potential crashes and/or warnings during resume.
When a hibernation image is saved in `swsusp_arch_suspend()`, all DAIF
exceptions are masked (by virtue of `local_daif_save()`), and the
suspended image is saved assuming that all DAIF exceptions will remain
masked when the image is restored.
When a hibernation image is resumed by `swsusp_arch_resume()`, only
interrupts are masked (by virtue of `local_irq_disable()` in
`resume_t
