Bluetooth: hci_sync: hold conn in hci_connect_acl/le_sync() callbacks
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_sync: hold conn in hci_connect_acl/le_sync() callbacks
There is theoretical UAF if the conn is freed while the hci_sync task
is running.
Hold refcount to avoid that.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iblock: Fix wrong PR ops NULL check for PREEMPT/RELEASE
In the iblock_execute_pr_out() function, PRO_PREEMPT,
PRO_PREEMPT_AND_ABORT, and PRO_RELEASE all perform callback capability
checks through ops->pr_clear. The error check allows unimplemented hooks
to pass through the gate, resulting dereferencing a NULL function
pointer.
Check whether the hooks that need to be called are supported.
tracing/mmiotrace: Add NULL check for mmio_trace_array in logging functions
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing/mmiotrace: Add NULL check for mmio_trace_array in logging functions
mmio_trace_rw() and mmio_trace_mapping() retrieve mmio_trace_array into
tr and pass it to __trace_mmiotrace_rw() and __trace_mmiotrace_map().
If these functions are invoked while mmio_trace_array is NULL (e.g. before
initialization or after disabled), accessing tr->array_buffer.buffer will
result in a NULL pointer dereference crash.
Fix this by adding an explicit NULL check for tr at the beginning of
__trace_mmiotrace_rw() and __trace_mmiotrace_map().
mm: migrate_device: fix pte_pfn/pte_dirty called on non-present PTE
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm: migrate_device: fix pte_pfn/pte_dirty called on non-present PTE
pte_pfn() and pte_dirty() have undefined behaviour when called on a
non-present PTE. In migrate_vma_collect_pmd(), these functions may be
invoked on non-present entries (e.g., device-private entries), leading
to potential crashes from pte_pfn() or incorrect dirty folio accounting
from pte_dirty(). Fix both by guarding with pte_present() checks.
KVM: s390: pci: Fix NULL dereference on AIBV allocation failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: s390: pci: Fix NULL dereference on AIBV allocation failure
The airq_iv_create() can return NULL on failure, but the return value was
never checked. If it fails, zdev->aibv will be NULL and fail when
dereferenced in kvm_zpci_set_airq(). Add a NULL check and free the
previously allocated AISB bit and zdev->aisb on failure.
vxlan: re-fetch eth header after route_shortcircuit()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vxlan: re-fetch eth header after route_shortcircuit()
Before route_shortcircuit(), the eth header pointer is cached from eth_hdr(skb).
Inside route_shortcircuit(), pskb_may_pull() can be called, which may
reallocate skb->head.
In this case, returning to vxlan_xmit() leaves the cached eth pointer pointing to
freed memory, leading to a use-after-free when dereferencing eth->h_dest.
Fix this by updating eth = eth_hdr(skb) after calling route_shortcircuit().
i2c: amd-mp2: Unregister callback on adapter add failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: amd-mp2: Unregister callback on adapter add failure
amd_mp2_register_cb() stores the platform I2C context in the MP2 PCI
driver's callback table before the adapter is registered. If
i2c_add_adapter() fails, probe returns and devres frees the context,
but the PCI driver can still dereference the stale pointer from its IRQ
and system-sleep callbacks.
Unregister the callback before returning the adapter registration error.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/dasd: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference
dasd_release_space() checks the implementation of the is_ese()
discipline function before calling it to determine if a given device is
an ESE DASD.
The current usage of the logical AND operator will lead to a NULL
pointer dereference as the function is called even if the function
pointer is NULL.
Fix this by using the logical OR operator.
i2c: imx: Fix slave registration race and error handling
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: imx: Fix slave registration race and error handling
In i2c_imx_reg_slave(), the slave pointer was assigned before
pm_runtime_resume_and_get(). If pm_runtime_resume_and_get() failed,
the error path returned without clearing i2c_imx->slave, leaving it
non-NULL and causing all subsequent registration attempts to fail
with -EBUSY.
Additionally, because this driver uses a shared IRQ, the interrupt
handler i2c_imx_isr() can execute concurrently and, after acquiring
slave_lock, dereference i2c_imx->slave. The previous fix attempt
added a lockless i2c_imx->slave = NULL on t
driver core: use READ_ONCE() for dev->driver in dev_has_sync_state()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
driver core: use READ_ONCE() for dev->driver in dev_has_sync_state()
dev_has_sync_state() reads dev->driver twice without holding
device_lock() -- once for the NULL check and once to dereference
->sync_state. Some callers only hold device_links_write_lock, which
doesn't prevent a concurrent unbind from clearing dev->driver via
device_unbind_cleanup().
Fix it by reading dev->driver exactly once with READ_ONCE(), pairing
with the WRITE_ONCE() in device_set_driver().
Drivers: hv: vmbus: use generic driver_override infrastructure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Drivers: hv: vmbus: use generic driver_override infrastructure
When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.
Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.
Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1]
perf sched: Fix register_pid() overflow, strcpy, and BUG_ON
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf sched: Fix register_pid() overflow, strcpy, and BUG_ON
register_pid() has several issues when processing untrusted perf.data:
1. Integer overflow: (pid + 1) * sizeof(struct task_desc *) can wrap
to a small value on 32-bit systems when pid is large (e.g.
0x40000000), causing realloc to return a tiny buffer followed by
out-of-bounds writes in the initialization loop.
2. Heap buffer overflow: strcpy(task->comm, comm) copies the
untrusted comm string into a fixed 20-byte COMM_LEN buffer with
no length check.
3. BUG_ON on allocation failure: perf.data is u
perf tools: Use perf_env__get_cpu_topology() in machine__resolve()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf tools: Use perf_env__get_cpu_topology() in machine__resolve()
machine__resolve() accesses env->cpu[al->cpu].socket_id after checking
al->cpu >= 0 and env->cpu != NULL, but without validating al->cpu
against env->nr_cpus_avail. Since al->cpu comes from the untrusted
perf.data sample, a crafted file with a large CPU index causes an
out-of-bounds heap read.
Use perf_env__get_cpu_topology() which validates both NULL and bounds.
Also bounds-check al->cpu before the cast to struct perf_cpu (int16_t):
without this, values like 65536 silently truncate to 0, bypassing the
acc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Disable xfrm_decode_session hook attachment
BPF LSM programs can currently attach to xfrm_decode_session(). That
hook may return an error, but security_skb_classify_flow() calls it
from a void path and triggers BUG_ON() if an error is returned.
Disable BPF attachment to the hook to prevent a BPF LSM program from
turning packet classification into a full panic.
net/mlx5: LAG, MPESW, Fix missing complete() on devcom error
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: LAG, MPESW, Fix missing complete() on devcom error
mlx5_mpesw_work() returned without calling complete() when
mlx5_lag_get_devcom_comp() returned NULL. A caller that queued the
work and waited on mpesww->comp would block indefinitely.
Funnel the early-return path through a new "complete" label so the
waiter is always woken.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: xt_nat: reject unsupported target families
xt_nat SNAT and DNAT target handlers assume IP-family conntrack state
is present and can dereference a NULL pointer when instantiated from an
unsupported family through nft_compat. A bridge-family compat rule can
therefore trigger a NULL-dereference in nf_nat_setup_info().
Reject non-IP families in xt_nat_checkentry() so unsupported targets
cannot be installed. Keep NFPROTO_INET allowed for valid inet NAT
compat users and leave the runtime fast path unchanged.

tools/power/x86/intel-speed-select: Harden daemon pidfile open
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tools/power/x86/intel-speed-select: Harden daemon pidfile open
Avoid symlink-based pidfile clobbering by opening the pidfile with
O_NOFOLLOW and validating it with fstat() before locking/writing.
The daemon currently uses a fixed pidfile path under /tmp. A local
unprivileged user can pre-create a symlink at that path and cause a
root-run daemon instance to write into an attacker-chosen file.
cxl: Fix CXL_HEADERLOG_SIZE to match RAS Capability size
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl: Fix CXL_HEADERLOG_SIZE to match RAS Capability size
The CXL r4.0 8.2.4.17.7 RAS Capability Structure has total length 0x58
bytes (CXL_RAS_CAPABILITY_LENGTH); the Header Log occupies the trailing
64 bytes at offset 0x18. CXL_HEADERLOG_SIZE was defined as SZ_512,
eight times the actual on-device size.
header_log_copy() reads CXL_HEADERLOG_SIZE_U32 (128) dwords from the
RAS capability iomap, overrunning the 88-byte mapping by 448 bytes.
The cxl_aer_uncorrectable_error trace event memcpy()s CXL_HEADERLOG_SIZE
(512) bytes from its source. For the CPER caller the source i
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (occ) unregister sysfs devices outside occ lock
occ_active(false) and occ_shutdown() unregister sysfs-backed devices while
occ->lock is held. hwmon_device_unregister() and sysfs_remove_group() can
wait for active sysfs callbacks to drain, and those callbacks can enter the
OCC update path and try to take occ->lock again. That gives the unregister
paths the lock ordering occ->lock -> sysfs callback drain, while a callback
has the opposite edge sysfs callback -> occ->lock.
This issue was found by our static analysis tool and then manually

mmc: vub300: defer reset until cmd_mutex is unlocked
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: vub300: defer reset until cmd_mutex is unlocked
vub300_cmndwork_thread() holds cmd_mutex while it sends a command and
waits for the command response. If the response wait times out,
__vub300_command_response() kills the command URBs and then synchronously
resets the USB device through usb_reset_device().
That reset path re-enters the driver through vub300_pre_reset(), which
also takes cmd_mutex. The worker therefore tries to acquire the same
mutex recursively while it is still holding it from the command path.
This issue was found by our static analysis tool and th
