debugobjects: Plug race against a concurrent OOM disable
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
debugobjects: Plug race against a concurrent OOM disable
syzbot reported a puzzling splat:
WARNING: kernel/time/hrtimer.c:443 at stub_timer+0xa/0x20
stub_timer() is installed as timer callback function in
hrtimer_fixup_assert_init(), which is invoked when
debug_object_assert_init() can't find a shadow object. In that case debug
objects emits a warning about it before invoking the fixup.
Though the provided console log lacks this warning and instead has the
following a few seconds before the splat:
ODEBUG: Out of memory. ODEBUG disabled

usb: gadget: function: rndis: add length check to response query
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: function: rndis: add length check to response query
Add variable representations for BufLength and BufOffset in
rndis_query_response(), and perform a length check on them.
This is identical to how rndis_set_response() handles these parameters.
staging: vme_user: fix location monitor leak in tsi148 bridge
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: vme_user: fix location monitor leak in tsi148 bridge
tsi148_probe() allocates a location monitor resource and links it into
tsi148_bridge->lm_resources. The probe error path frees this list, but
tsi148_remove() only frees the dma, slave and master resource lists, so
the location monitor resource is leaked on device unbind or module
unload.
Free the lm_resources list in tsi148_remove() as well, before
tsi148_bridge is freed.
x86/bugs: Make Safe-RET robust against interrupt injection
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/bugs: Make Safe-RET robust against interrupt injection
An attacker injecting interrupts while the Safe-RET mitigation executes
on machines affected by SRSO can neutralize the safe return sequence,
potentially leading to data leakage through speculative execution.
Fixup register state as if the Safe-RET sequence executed successfully
by "emulating" it, in a manner of speaking, and avoid executing a RET
instruction after returning from the interrupt.
KVM: VMX: Grab vmcs12 on CR8 interception update iff vCPU is in guest mode
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: VMX: Grab vmcs12 on CR8 interception update iff vCPU is in guest mode
When updating CR8 intercepts, get vmcs12 if and only if the vCPU is in
guest mode so that a future change can have update CR8 intercepts during
vCPU creation, without running afoul of get_vmcs12()'s lockdep assertion.

usb: gadget: f_fs: initialize reset_work at allocation time
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_fs: initialize reset_work at allocation time
ffs_fs_kill_sb() unconditionally calls cancel_work_sync() on
ffs->reset_work when a functionfs instance is unmounted:
ffs_data_reset(ffs);
cancel_work_sync(&ffs->reset_work);
However ffs->reset_work is only ever initialized via INIT_WORK() in
ffs_func_set_alt() and ffs_func_disable(), and only on the

net: ethernet: arc: emac: quiesce interrupts before requesting IRQ
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: arc: emac: quiesce interrupts before requesting IRQ
Normal RX/TX interrupts are enabled later, in arc_emac_open(), so probe
should not see interrupt delivery in the usual case. However, hardware may
still present stale or latched interrupt status left by firmware or the
bootloader.
If probe later unwinds after devm_request_irq() has installed the handler,
such a stale interrupt can still reach arc_emac_intr() during teardown and
race with release of the associated net_device.
Avoid that window by putting the device into a known quiescent state before
reques
can: esd_usb: kill anchored URBs before freeing netdevs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: esd_usb: kill anchored URBs before freeing netdevs
esd_usb_disconnect() frees each CAN netdev with free_candev() inside
its per-netdev loop and only calls unlink_all_urbs(dev) afterwards.
The per-netdev private data (struct esd_usb_net_priv) is embedded in
the net_device allocation returned by alloc_candev(), so once
free_candev() has run, dev->nets[i] points to freed memory.
unlink_all_urbs() then dereferences the freed dev->nets[i] to kill the
per-netdev TX anchor (usb_kill_anchored_urbs(&priv->tx_submitted)),
clear active_tx_jobs, and reset priv->tx_contexts[].

usb: gadget: udc: bdc: free IRQ and drain func_wake_notify before teardown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: udc: bdc: free IRQ and drain func_wake_notify before teardown
The Broadcom BDC UDC driver registers its IRQ handler with
devm_request_irq() in bdc_udc_init(), so the IRQ is released by devm
only after bdc_remove() returns. devm releases resources in reverse
LIFO order, but bdc_remove() runs bdc_udc_exit() and bdc_hw_exit() ->
bdc_mem_free() manually before returning: bdc_udc_exit() tears down
individual endpoint objects via bdc_free_ep(), while bdc_hw_exit() ->
bdc_mem_free() frees and NULLs the DMA-coherent status-report ring
(bdc->srr.sr_bds) and kfree()s bd
xfrm: fix sk_dst_cache double-free in xfrm_user_policy()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: fix sk_dst_cache double-free in xfrm_user_policy()
xfrm_user_policy() clears the socket dst cache with __sk_dst_reset(),
i.e. the non-atomic __sk_dst_set(sk, NULL): it reads sk_dst_cache with
rcu_dereference_protected(), stores NULL and dst_release()s the old dst.
That is only safe if no other thread modifies sk_dst_cache concurrently.
For a connected UDP socket that does not hold: the transmit fast path
(udp_sendmsg -> sk_dst_check -> sk_dst_reset) resets the cache locklessly
with an atomic xchg(). A per-socket policy change racing a send can make
both sides observe
xfrm6: clear dst.dev on error to avoid double netdev_put in xfrm6_fill_dst()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm6: clear dst.dev on error to avoid double netdev_put in xfrm6_fill_dst()
On the error path where in6_dev_get(dev) returns NULL, xfrm6_fill_dst()
releases the device reference with netdev_put() but leaves
xdst->u.dst.dev set. dst_destroy() later calls netdev_put(dst->dev)
again, so the same net_device reference is released twice, underflowing
its refcount (ref_tracker WARNING + "unregister_netdevice: waiting for
<dev> to become free").
Clear xdst->u.dst.dev after the netdev_put(), the same way the XFRM

wifi: p54: validate RX frame length in p54_rx_eeprom_readback()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: p54: validate RX frame length in p54_rx_eeprom_readback()
p54_rx_eeprom_readback() copies the requested EEPROM slice out of a
device-supplied readback frame without checking that the skb actually holds
that many bytes. Commit da1b9a55ff11 ("wifi: p54: prevent buffer-overflow in
p54_rx_eeprom_readback()") closed the destination overflow by copying a
fixed priv->eeprom_slice_size (and rejecting a mismatched advertised len),
but the source side is still unbounded: nothing verifies the frame is long
enough to supply that many bytes.

btrfs: reject free space cache with more entries than pages
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: reject free space cache with more entries than pages
When loading a v1 free space cache, __load_free_space_cache() takes
num_entries and num_bitmaps straight from the on-disk
btrfs_free_space_header. That header is stored in the tree_root under a key
with type 0, which the tree-checker has no case for, so neither count is
validated before the load trusts it.
The load loops num_entries times and maps the next page whenever the current
one runs out, going through io_ctl_check_crc() -> io_ctl_map_page(), which
does io_ctl->pages[io_ctl->index++]. But pages[] is allocat
Input: ims-pcu - fix heap-buffer-overflow in ims_pcu_process_data()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: ims-pcu - fix heap-buffer-overflow in ims_pcu_process_data()
The `ims_pcu_process_data()` processes incoming URB data byte by byte.
However, it fails to check if the `read_pos` index exceeds
IMS_PCU_BUF_SIZE.
If a malicious USB device sends a packet larger than IMS_PCU_BUF_SIZE,
`read_pos` will increment indefinitely. Moreover, since `read_pos` is
located immediately after `read_buf`, the attacker can overwrite
`read_pos` itself to arbitrarily control the index.
This manipulated `read_pos` is subsequently used in
`ims_pcu_handle_response()` to copy data into `cmd_b
sctp: don't free the ASCONF's own transport in DEL-IP processing
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: don't free the ASCONF's own transport in DEL-IP processing
sctp_process_asconf() caches the transport the ASCONF chunk is processed
against in asconf->transport (== chunk->transport, set once in sctp_rcv()).
For an ASCONF located through its Address Parameter by
__sctp_rcv_asconf_lookup(), that cached transport corresponds to the
Address Parameter, which need not be the packet's source address.
sctp_process_asconf_param() rejects a DEL-IP for the packet source address
(ADDIP D8, SCTP_ERROR_DEL_SRC_IP), but nothing protects asconf->transport.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: nVMX: Hide shadow VMCS right after VMCLEAR
free_nested() frees the shadow VMCS while vmcs01 still points to it. But
because it is asynchronous with respect to loaded_vmcs_clear(), the vCPU
might migrate before the pointer is cleared and __loaded_vmcs_clear()
may then execute VMCLEAR.
The VMCS needs to stay attached until its explicit VMCLEAR completes, but
then it can be hidden and the page safely freed.
Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix use-after-free in l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: Fix use-after-free in l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb()
l2cap_sock_new_connection_cb() returned l2cap_pi(sk)->chan after
release_sock(parent). Once the parent lock is dropped the newly
enqueued child socket sk is reachable via the accept queue, so another
task can accept and free it before the callback dereferences sk,
resulting in a use-after-free.
Rework the ->new_connection() op so the core, rather than the callback,
owns the child channel's lifetime. The op now receives a pre-allocated
new_chan and returns an errno instead of allocating and returning a
c
sctp: validate STALE_COOKIE cause length before reading staleness
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: validate STALE_COOKIE cause length before reading staleness
When an ERROR chunk with a STALE_COOKIE cause is received in the
COOKIE_ECHOED state, sctp_sf_do_5_2_6_stale() reads the 4-byte Measure
of Staleness that follows the cause header:
err = (struct sctp_errhdr *)(chunk->skb->data);
stale = ntohl(*(__be32 *)((u8 *)err + sizeof(*err)));
err is the first cause in the chunk, not the STALE_COOKIE cause that
caused the dispatch, and nothing guarantees the staleness field is
present. sctp_walk_errors() only requires a cause to be as long as the
4-byte header, so f
