mailbox: Prevent out-of-bounds access in fw_mbox_index_xlate()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mailbox: Prevent out-of-bounds access in fw_mbox_index_xlate()
Although it is guided that `#mbox-cells` must be at least 1, there are
many instances of `#mbox-cells = <0>;` in the device tree. If that is
the case and the corresponding mailbox controller does not provide
`fw_xlate` and of_xlate` function pointers, `fw_mbox_index_xlate()` will
be used by default and out-of-bounds accesses could occur due to lack of
bounds check in that function.
ALSA: usb-audio: Add sanity check for OOB writes at silencing
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Add sanity check for OOB writes at silencing
At silencing the playback URB packets in the implicit fb mode before
the actual playback, we blindly assume that the received packets fit
with the buffer size. But when the setup in the capture stream
differs from the playback stream (e.g. due to the USB core limitation
of max packet size), such an inconsistency may lead to OOB writes to
the buffer, resulting in a crash.
For addressing it, add a sanity check of the transfer buffer size at
prepare_silent_urb(), and stop the data copy if the received data
overflo
APEI/GHES: ensure that won't go past CPER allocated record
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
APEI/GHES: ensure that won't go past CPER allocated record
The logic at ghes_new() prevents allocating too large records, by
checking if they're bigger than GHES_ESTATUS_MAX_SIZE (currently, 64KB).
Yet, the allocation is done with the actual number of pages from the
CPER bios table location, which can be smaller.
Yet, a bad firmware could send data with a different size, which might
be bigger than the allocated memory, causing an OOPS:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address fff00000f9b40000
Mem abort info:

scsi: ufs: core: Flush exception handling work when RPM level is zero
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: ufs: core: Flush exception handling work when RPM level is zero
Ensure that the exception event handling work is explicitly flushed during
suspend when the runtime power management level is set to UFS_PM_LVL_0.
When the RPM level is zero, the device power mode and link state both
remain active. Previously, the UFS core driver bypassed flushing exception
event handling jobs in this configuration. This created a race condition
where the driver could attempt to access the host controller to handle an
exception after the system had already entered a deep power-down state
ceph: supply snapshot context in ceph_zero_partial_object()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: supply snapshot context in ceph_zero_partial_object()
The ceph_zero_partial_object function was missing proper snapshot
context for its OSD write operations, which could lead to data
inconsistencies in snapshots.
Reproducer:

md-cluster: fix NULL pointer dereference in process_metadata_update
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md-cluster: fix NULL pointer dereference in process_metadata_update
The function process_metadata_update() blindly dereferences the 'thread'
pointer (acquired via rcu_dereference_protected) within the wait_event()
macro.
While the code comment states "daemon thread must exist", there is a valid
race condition window during the MD array startup sequence (md_run):
1. bitmap_load() is called, which invokes md_cluster_ops->join().
2. join() starts the "cluster_recv" thread (recv_daemon).
3. At this point, recv_daemon is active and processing messages.
4. However, mddev->threa
media: mtk-mdp: Fix a reference leak bug in mtk_mdp_remove()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: mtk-mdp: Fix a reference leak bug in mtk_mdp_remove()
In mtk_mdp_probe(), vpu_get_plat_device() increases the reference
count of the returned platform device. Add platform_device_put()
to prevent reference leak.
drm/atmel-hlcdc: fix memory leak from the atomic_destroy_state callback
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/atmel-hlcdc: fix memory leak from the atomic_destroy_state callback
After several commits, the slab memory increases. Some drm_crtc_commit
objects are not freed. The atomic_destroy_state callback only put the
framebuffer. Use the __drm_atomic_helper_plane_destroy_state() function
to put all the objects that are no longer needed.
It has been seen after hours of usage of a graphics application or using
kmemleak:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hfsplus: pretend special inodes as regular files
Since commit af153bb63a33 ("vfs: catch invalid modes in may_open()")
requires any inode be one of S_IFDIR/S_IFLNK/S_IFREG/S_IFCHR/S_IFBLK/
S_IFIFO/S_IFSOCK type, use S_IFREG for special inodes.
EFI/CPER: don't go past the ARM processor CPER record buffer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
EFI/CPER: don't go past the ARM processor CPER record buffer
There's a logic inside GHES/CPER to detect if the section_length
is too small, but it doesn't detect if it is too big.
Currently, if the firmware receives an ARM processor CPER record
stating that a section length is big, kernel will blindly trust
section_length, producing a very long dump. For instance, a 67
bytes record with ERR_INFO_NUM set 46198 and section length
set to 854918320 would dump a lot of data going a way past the
firmware memory-mapped area.
Fix it by adding a logic to prevent it to go past the
fbdev: of: display_timing: fix refcount leak in of_get_display_timings()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: of: display_timing: fix refcount leak in of_get_display_timings()
of_parse_phandle() returns a device_node with refcount incremented,
which is stored in 'entry' and then copied to 'native_mode'. When the
error paths at lines 184 or 192 jump to 'entryfail', native_mode's
refcount is not decremented, causing a refcount leak.
Fix this by changing the goto target from 'entryfail' to 'timingfail',
which properly calls of_node_put(native_mode) before cleanup.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: fiemap page fault fix
In gfs2_fiemap(), we are calling iomap_fiemap() while holding the inode
glock. This can lead to recursive glock taking if the fiemap buffer is
memory mapped to the same inode and accessing it triggers a page fault.
Fix by disabling page faults for iomap_fiemap() and faulting in the
buffer by hand if necessary.
Fixes xfstest generic/742.
arm64: Add support for TSV110 Spectre-BHB mitigation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: Add support for TSV110 Spectre-BHB mitigation
The TSV110 processor is vulnerable to the Spectre-BHB (Branch History
Buffer) attack, which can be exploited to leak information through
branch prediction side channels. This commit adds the MIDR of TSV110
to the list for software mitigation.
media: cx88: Add missing unmap in snd_cx88_hw_params()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: cx88: Add missing unmap in snd_cx88_hw_params()
In error path, add cx88_alsa_dma_unmap() to release
resource acquired by cx88_alsa_dma_map().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: libertas: fix WARNING in usb_tx_block
The function usb_tx_block() submits cardp->tx_urb without ensuring that
any previous transmission on this URB has completed. If a second call
occurs while the URB is still active (e.g. during rapid firmware loading),
usb_submit_urb() detects the active state and triggers a warning:
'URB submitted while active'.
Fix this by enforcing serialization: call usb_kill_urb() before
submitting the new request. This ensures the URB is idle and safe to reuse.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/amd: move wait_on_sem() out of spinlock
With iommu.strict=1, the existing completion wait path can cause soft
lockups under stressed environment, as wait_on_sem() busy-waits under the
spinlock with interrupts disabled.
Move the completion wait in iommu_completion_wait() out of the spinlock.
wait_on_sem() only polls the hardware-updated cmd_sem and does not require
iommu->lock, so holding the lock during the busy wait unnecessarily
increases contention and extends the time with interrupts disabled.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: prodikeys: Check presence of pm->input_ep82
Fake USB devices can send their own report descriptors for which the
input_mapping() hook does not get called. In this case, pm->input_ep82 stays
NULL, which leads to a crash later.
This does not happen with the real device, but can be provoked by imposing as
one.
usb: chipidea: udc: fix DMA and SG cleanup in _ep_nuke()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: chipidea: udc: fix DMA and SG cleanup in _ep_nuke()
The ChipIdea UDC driver can encounter "not page aligned sg buffer"
errors when a USB device is reconnected after being disconnected
during an active transfer. This occurs because _ep_nuke() returns
requests to the gadget layer without properly unmapping DMA buffers
or cleaning up scatter-gather bounce buffers.
Root cause:
When a disconnect happens during a multi-segment DMA transfer, the
request's num_mapped_sgs field and sgt.sgl pointer remain set with
stale values. The request is returned to the gadget driver with
media: i2c/tw9906: Fix potential memory leak in tw9906_probe()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: i2c/tw9906: Fix potential memory leak in tw9906_probe()
In one of the error paths in tw9906_probe(), the memory allocated in
v4l2_ctrl_handler_init() and v4l2_ctrl_new_std() is not freed. Fix that
by calling v4l2_ctrl_handler_free() on the handler in that error path.
kcm: fix zero-frag skb in frag_list on partial sendmsg error
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kcm: fix zero-frag skb in frag_list on partial sendmsg error
Syzkaller reported a warning in kcm_write_msgs() when processing a
message with a zero-fragment skb in the frag_list.
When kcm_sendmsg() fills MAX_SKB_FRAGS fragments in the current skb,
it allocates a new skb (tskb) and links it into the frag_list before
copying data. If the copy subsequently fails (e.g. -EFAULT from
user memory), tskb remains in the frag_list with zero fragments:
head skb (msg being assembled, NOT yet in sk_write_queue)
