In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vdpa_sim_blk: reject out-of-range sector starts
vdpasim_blk_check_range() logs an invalid start sector but continues
validating the request. The subsequent unsigned capacity subtraction can
underflow and let an out-of-range buffer offset reach the data path.
The invalid offset is used by three request paths. VIRTIO_BLK_T_OUT
copies guest data to blk->buffer + offset through
vringh_iov_pull_iotlb(), causing an out-of-bounds write in
_copy_from_iter() or memcpy(). VIRTIO_BLK_T_IN copies from
blk->buffer + offset to the guest through vringh_iov_push_iotlb(),
causing an out
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vduse: validate virtqueue alignment
vduse_validate_config() only checks the upper bound of vq_align. Invalid
values can therefore reach vring_create_virtqueue_map(). The split-ring
helpers use align - 1 as a bit mask, so the alignment must be a non-zero
power of two. A zero value makes vring_size() drop the descriptor and
available-ring part and vring_init() leave the used ring pointer NULL.
The VIRTIO spec requires the used ring to start at an address
aligned to at least 4 bytes. Reject values below VRING_USED_ALIGN_SIZE as
well as non-power-of-two values before they reac
vhost: invalidate vring access on IOTLB transitions
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vhost: invalidate vring access on IOTLB transitions
When VIRTIO_F_ACCESS_PLATFORM changes, cached vring pointers and IOTLB
metadata are interpreted in a different address space. Keeping them
across the transition can leave stale ring mappings in use.
Clearing d->iotlb before taking the VQ locks also lets a worker observe
a transient NULL d->iotlb and fall back to d->umem while translating a
descriptor.
Add a common vhost_clear_device_iotlb() helper for vhost-net and
vhost-vsock. Take all VQ mutexes in index order before dropping the
device-wide IOTLB, invalidate each VQ's
virtio_input: reset device if input_register_device() fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio_input: reset device if input_register_device() fails
Probe marks the device DRIVER_OK with virtio_device_ready() before
calling input_register_device(). If registration fails, the error path
cleared vi->ready and called del_vqs() while the device was still live,
so the device could keep DMA to queues that were already torn down.
Match remove/freeze: call virtio_reset_device() on that path before
tearing down the virtqueues.
virtio_input: stop callbacks before unregistering input device
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio_input: stop callbacks before unregistering input device
virtinput_remove() unregisters the input device before resetting the
virtio device. virtinput_recv_events() drops vi->lock around input_event(),
so clearing vi->ready does not stop a callback that passed the entry check.
It can still use vi->idev, requeue buffers and kick the queue.
Reset first, as virtinput_freeze() already does. With the preceding core
change, reset waits for callbacks before input_unregister_device() can
free vi->idev. Recheck vi->ready after taking the lock again: keep draining

net: ipv6: Fix UDP length overflow with PMTU discover and big MTU
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ipv6: Fix UDP length overflow with PMTU discover and big MTU
This commit bounds cork->base.fragsize to IP6_MAX_MTU for UDP sockets to
avoid a possible overflow of UDP length that triggers a WARN in
udp_set_len_short when setsockopt IPV6_MTU_DISCOVER is set to
IPV6_PMTUDISC_DO or IPV6_PMTUDISC_PROBE, and a large packet is sent over
a netdev with an unusually large MTU.
Steps to reproduce (included in the new selftest):
1. Set device MTU bigger than IP6_MAX_MTU. cork->base.fragsize will be
set to that MTU in ip6_setup_cork.
2. Set IPV6_MTU_DISCOVER to IPV6_PMTUDISC_
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: cortina: Fix budget accounting
The gmac_rx() function returns the remaining NAPI budget, but its
caller treats the return value as the number of packets received. An
idle poll therefore reports a full budget and remains scheduled.
Return the number of received packets instead. Preserve the existing
free queue refill accounting by adding that count directly; continuing
to subtract it from the budget would invert the refill behavior.
net: ethernet: cortina: Count dropped frames as NAPI work
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: cortina: Count dropped frames as NAPI work
The RX loop only consumes budget when it successfully delivers a frame.
Error paths keep consuming descriptors without reducing the budget, so a
stream of bad frames can process the entire receive ring in one poll.
Move the budget accounting to a common end-of-frame path. This counts
each completed frame as NAPI work whether it was delivered or dropped,
matching the behavior of the vendor driver.
eth: ice: don't dereference pointers from TP_printk()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
eth: ice: don't dereference pointers from TP_printk()
After forwarding net-next during the v7.3 merge window we started
seeing:
TRACE EVENT ERROR: Event ice_tx_dim_work has double dereference in TP_printk: REC->q_vector->tx.tx_ring->q_index
WARNING: kernel/trace/trace_events.c:420 at test_double_dereference.cold+0x39/0x4b
this is due to extra checks added in tracing subsystem in
commit b5cc230af5e5 ("tracing: Warn when an event dereferences a pointer in TP_printk()").
Printing happens long after the event was recorded, by which point
the pointers may be invalid (the
net: macb: destroy the phylink instance on the probe error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: macb: destroy the phylink instance on the probe error path
macb_mii_init() creates a phylink instance on both of its success paths,
but the probe unwind frees the netdev without destroying it, so a failing
macb_alloc_tieoff() or register_netdev() leaks the instance.
Destroy it at err_out_unregister_mdio, which is only reachable once
macb_mii_init() has succeeded, so bp->phylink is valid there.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
watchdog: msc313e: Avoid division by zero
clk_get_rate() could return 0. Avoid a division by zero panic.
watchdog: msc313e: Fix clock leak and spurious timer in settimeout()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
watchdog: msc313e: Fix clock leak and spurious timer in settimeout()
msc313e_wdt_settimeout() unconditionally calls msc313e_wdt_start() which
introduces two severe bugs:
1. If the watchdog is already active, calling start() again will
increase the reference count of the clock again. However stop() is
only called once, the reference count is unbalance.
2. If the watchdog is stopped, calling settimeout() will start
the hardware timer accidentally.
Factor out the register-writing logic into a helper function. Only call
it in settimeout() if the watchdog is running
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vxlan: initialize _md in vxlan_xmit_one()
If a VXLAN device is configured with both VXLAN_F_COLLECT_METADATA and
VXLAN_F_GBP, and a packet is transmitted through it using an external
ip_tunnel_info that lacks the IP_TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT_BIT flag, md is left
pointing to the uninitialized _md stack variable:
if (test_bit(IP_TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT_BIT, info->key.tun_flags)) {
if (info->options_len < sizeof(*md))
goto drop;
md = ip_tunnel_info_opts(info);
}
Because IP_TUNNEL_
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ppp_synctty: ensure a writeable skb header
ppp_sync_txmunge() checks headroom before prepending the address and
control bytes, but does not ensure that the skb header is writable.
A received skb can reach this function through PPP channel bridging
without passing through ppp_start_xmit(), which calls skb_cow_head().
For example, a PPPoE frame may share its buffer with a clone queued to
an AF_PACKET socket. If it is bridged to a synchronous tty channel, the
address/control bytes can overwrite data still visible to that socket.
Use skb_cow_head() to ensure both sufficient h
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: stmmac: initialize ptp_lock at probe time
priv->ptp_lock is only initialized in stmmac_ptp_register(), which runs
during __stmmac_open(). However, the lock is also used while the
interface is down and has never been opened: tc_taprio_configure()
invokes the PTP gettime64() callback to compute the EST base time when
offloading a TAPRIO schedule, and stmmac_get_time() takes
priv->ptp_lock. Using an uninitialized rwlock is undefined behaviour.
Move the rwlock_init() to __stmmac_dvr_probe(), together with the other
private locks, so that ptp_lock is always valid regardless
net/sched: cls_route: free emptied bucket on filter move
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: cls_route: free emptied bucket on filter move
route4_change can move an existing filter to a different top-level
bucket: route4_set_parms recomputes the handle from TCA_ROUTE4_TO/
FROM/IIF, and the handle-mismatch check is gated on the 'new' flag, so
for an existing filter the new handle may differ from the old one and
land in a different bucket. When this happens, the filter is unlinked
from the old bucket, but the bucket itself is never freed once it goes
empty. The stale empty bucket remains in head->table[], causing
route4_delete to report *last=false even af
net/sched: cls_api: Don't replay RTM_GETCHAIN in tc_ctl_chain().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: cls_api: Don't replay RTM_GETCHAIN in tc_ctl_chain().
If a netlink socket sends RTM_GETCHAIN requests repeatedly
without recv()ing the responses, tc_ctl_chain() hogs CPU and
triggers Hung Task splat. [0]
As caught in the stack trace, netlink_attachskb() could confuse
tc_ctl_chain() by returning -EAGAIN when the userspace netlink
socket's receive buffer is full.
The replay: label exists since commit 32a4f5ecd738 ("net: sched:
introduce chain object to uapi") but was not used initially.
Since commit 9f407f1768d3 ("net: sched: introduce chain templates"),

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: hinic: fix mailbox segment buffer overflow
check_mbox_seq_id_and_seg_len() validates that seq_id does not
exceed SEQ_ID_MAX_VAL (42) and seg_len does not exceed
MBOX_SEG_LEN (48). However, this allows the last segment
(seq_id=42) to carry a full 48-byte payload, writing to offset
42*48=2016 for 48 bytes (ending at byte 2064). The receive
buffer is only MBOX_MAX_BUF_SZ (2048) bytes, resulting in a
16-byte heap buffer overflow.
The hinic3 driver already handles this correctly by defining
MBOX_LAST_SEG_MAX_LEN and rejecting the last segment when it
exceeds the remainin
net/rds: fix tcp stream corruption with large pages
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/rds: fix tcp stream corruption with large pages
rds_message_map_pages() assigns PAGE_SIZE bytes to every
scatterlist entry, even when total_len ends in a partial page. The RDS
congestion map is defined as 8192 bytes, so on systems with PAGE_SIZE
greater than 8192 the scatterlist maps bytes beyond the end of the
congestion map. RDS-TCP transmits the SG contents according to those
lengths, so the extra bytes become part of the TCP RDS stream and are
interpreted as subsequent RDS message headers, corrupting the stream.
Limit the final scatterlist mapping to the number of
net: stmmac: fix TX descriptor availability check for TSO traffic
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: stmmac: fix TX descriptor availability check for TSO traffic
stmmac_tso_xmit() estimates the number of free TX descriptors required by
a TSO skb as:
(skb->len - proto_hdr_len) / TSO_MAX_BUFF_SIZE + 1
which assumes the payload is split into TSO_MAX_BUFF_SIZE chunks. This
underestimates the descriptors actually consumed by stmmac_tso_allocator(),
since each fragment is mapped individually and so it needs at least one
descriptor regardless of its size. Moreover, one descriptor is used for
the L2/L3/L4 headers and, when the MSS changes, one more is consumed for
the MSS
