In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
closures: Change BUG_ON() to WARN_ON()
If a BUG_ON() can be hit in the wild, it shouldn't be a BUG_ON()
For reference, this has popped up once in the CI, and we'll need more
info to debug it:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wireguard: allowedips: avoid unaligned 64-bit memory accesses
On the parisc platform, the kernel issues kernel warnings because
swap_endian() tries to load a 128-bit IPv6 address from an unaligned
memory location:
Kernel: unaligned access to 0x55f4688c in wg_allowedips_insert_v6+0x2c/0x80 [wireguard] (iir 0xf3010df)
Kernel: unaligned access to 0x55f46884 in wg_allowedips_insert_v6+0x38/0x80 [wireguard] (iir 0xf2010dc)
Avoid such unaligned memory accesses by instead using the
get_unaligned_be64() helper macro.

net, sunrpc: Remap EPERM in case of connection failure in xs_tcp_setup_socket
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net, sunrpc: Remap EPERM in case of connection failure in xs_tcp_setup_socket
When using a BPF program on kernel_connect(), the call can return -EPERM. This
causes xs_tcp_setup_socket() to loop forever, filling up the syslog and causing
the kernel to potentially freeze up.
Neil suggested:
This will propagate -EPERM up into other layers which might not be ready
to handle it. It might be safer to map EPERM to an error we would be more
likely to expect from the network system - such as ECONNREFUSED or ENETDOWN.
ECONNREFUSED as error seems reasonable. For programs sett
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: mos7840: fix crash on resume
Since commit c49cfa917025 ("USB: serial: use generic method if no
alternative is provided in usb serial layer"), USB serial core calls the
generic resume implementation when the driver has not provided one.
This can trigger a crash on resume with mos7840 since support for
multiple read URBs was added back in 2011. Specifically, both port read
URBs are now submitted on resume for open ports, but the context pointer
of the second URB is left set to the core rather than mos7840 port
structure.
Fix this by implementing dedicated suspe
x86/bhi: Avoid warning in #DB handler due to BHI mitigation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/bhi: Avoid warning in #DB handler due to BHI mitigation
When BHI mitigation is enabled, if SYSENTER is invoked with the TF flag set
then entry_SYSENTER_compat() uses CLEAR_BRANCH_HISTORY and calls the
clear_bhb_loop() before the TF flag is cleared. This causes the #DB handler
(exc_debug_kernel()) to issue a warning because single-step is used outside the
entry_SYSENTER_compat() function.
To address this issue, entry_SYSENTER_compat() should use CLEAR_BRANCH_HISTORY
after making sure the TF flag is cleared.
The problem can be reproduced with the following sequence:
usb: gadget: configfs: Prevent OOB read/write in usb_string_copy()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: configfs: Prevent OOB read/write in usb_string_copy()
Userspace provided string 's' could trivially have the length zero. Left
unchecked this will firstly result in an OOB read in the form
`if (str[0 - 1] == '\n') followed closely by an OOB write in the form
`str[0 - 1] = '\0'`.
There is already a validating check to catch strings that are too long.
Let's supply an additional check for invalid strings that are too short.
libceph: fix race between delayed_work() and ceph_monc_stop()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: fix race between delayed_work() and ceph_monc_stop()
The way the delayed work is handled in ceph_monc_stop() is prone to
races with mon_fault() and possibly also finish_hunting(). Both of
these can requeue the delayed work which wouldn't be canceled by any of
the following code in case that happens after cancel_delayed_work_sync()
runs -- __close_session() doesn't mess with the delayed work in order
to avoid interfering with the hunting interval logic. This part was
missed in commit b5d91704f53e ("libceph: behave in mon_fault() if
cur_mon < 0") and use-after-free
crypto: aead,cipher - zeroize key buffer after use
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: aead,cipher - zeroize key buffer after use
I.G 9.7.B for FIPS 140-3 specifies that variables temporarily holding
cryptographic information should be zeroized once they are no longer
needed. Accomplish this by using kfree_sensitive for buffers that
previously held the private key.
drm/amdgpu: Using uninitialized value *size when calling amdgpu_vce_cs_reloc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Using uninitialized value *size when calling amdgpu_vce_cs_reloc
Initialize the size before calling amdgpu_vce_cs_reloc, such as case 0x03000001.

Avoid potentially reusing uninitialized data
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Correct check for empty list
Since commit a3c53be55c95 ("net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Support multiple MDIO
busses") mv88e6xxx_default_mdio_bus() has checked that the
return value of list_first_entry() is non-NULL.
This appears to be intended to guard against the list chip->mdios being
empty. However, it is not the correct check as the implementation of
list_first_entry is not designed to return NULL for empty lists.
Instead, use list_first_entry_or_null() which does return NULL if the
list is empty.
Flagged by Smatch.
Compile tested only.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: dvb-frontends: tda10048: Fix integer overflow
state->xtal_hz can be up to 16M, so it can overflow a 32 bit integer
when multiplied by pll_mfactor.
Create a new 64 bit variable to hold the calculations.
bpf: Avoid uninitialized value in BPF_CORE_READ_BITFIELD
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Avoid uninitialized value in BPF_CORE_READ_BITFIELD
[Changes from V1:
- Use a default branch in the switch statement to initialize `val'.]
GCC warns that `val' may be used uninitialized in the
BPF_CRE_READ_BITFIELD macro, defined in bpf_core_read.h as:
[...]
unsigned long long val; \
[...] \
switch (__CORE_RELO(s, field, BYTE_SIZE)) { \
case 1: val = *(const unsigned char *)p; break; \
case 2: val = *(const unsigned short *)p; break; \
case 4: val = *(const unsigned int *)p; break; \

f2fs: check validation of fault attrs in f2fs_build_fault_attr()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: check validation of fault attrs in f2fs_build_fault_attr()
- It missed to check validation of fault attrs in parse_options(),
let's fix to add check condition in f2fs_build_fault_attr().
- Use f2fs_build_fault_attr() in __sbi_store() to clean up code.
s390/pkey: Use kfree_sensitive() to fix Coccinelle warnings
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/pkey: Use kfree_sensitive() to fix Coccinelle warnings
Replace memzero_explicit() and kfree() with kfree_sensitive() to fix
warnings reported by Coccinelle:
WARNING opportunity for kfree_sensitive/kvfree_sensitive (line 1506)
WARNING opportunity for kfree_sensitive/kvfree_sensitive (line 1643)
WARNING opportunity for kfree_sensitive/kvfree_sensitive (line 1770)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/pkey: Wipe sensitive data on failure
Wipe sensitive data from stack also if the copy_to_user() fails.
s390/pkey: Wipe copies of clear-key structures on failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/pkey: Wipe copies of clear-key structures on failure
Wipe all sensitive data from stack for all IOCTLs, which convert a
clear-key into a protected- or secure-key.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp_metrics: validate source addr length
I don't see anything checking that TCP_METRICS_ATTR_SADDR_IPV4
is at least 4 bytes long, and the policy doesn't have an entry
for this attribute at all (neither does it for IPv6 but v6 is
manually validated).
i2c: pnx: Fix potential deadlock warning from del_timer_sync() call in isr
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: pnx: Fix potential deadlock warning from del_timer_sync() call in isr
When del_timer_sync() is called in an interrupt context it throws a warning
because of potential deadlock. The timer is used only to exit from
wait_for_completion() after a timeout so replacing the call with
wait_for_completion_timeout() allows to remove the problematic timer and
its related functions altogether.
