netfilter: flowtable: publish GC-visible tuple last
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: flowtable: publish GC-visible tuple last
nf_flow_table_iterate() only treats original-direction tuple nodes as
owning entries. Publishing the original node first lets GC observe and
free a flow while flow_offload_add() is still inserting the reply node.
Publish the reply node first and the original node last so GC never
sees a partially installed flow.
KASAN can trigger slab-use-after-free read and write reports in the
flowtable/rhashtable path (rht_deferred_worker, jhash, flow_offload_del,
flow_offload_lookup, etc.).
eth: bnxt: avoid deadlock when canceling IRQ affinity notifier
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
eth: bnxt: avoid deadlock when canceling IRQ affinity notifier
Unregistering IRQ affinity notifiers waits for the callback synchronously.
bnxt takes the netdev instance lock in the notifier (to restart the queue)
and cancels the work under the same lock. This may obviously deadlock.
Move the restart to the async service task. The queue restart isn't
super time sensitive. Store the new TPH tag, schedule the task.
Safely canceling the service task is already ironed out.
In bnxt_request_irq() the order of registering notifier, affinity and
initial TPH programming has to be i
ipvlan: inherit needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from phy_dev
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvlan: inherit needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from phy_dev
ipvlan devices inherit hard_header_len from phy_dev during ipvlan_init(),
but leave needed_headroom and needed_tailroom set to 0.
When the underlying phy_dev (or stacked lower device) requires extra headroom
or tailroom for headers/trailers (e.g. macsec, ipsec, wireguard, tunnels, or
veth with rx headroom), upper layers calculating packet headroom and tailroom
fail to reserve sufficient space.
This can result in reallocation overhead, skb headroom underflows, or KASAN

veth: fix queue index used to wake the peer txq in veth_poll
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
veth: fix queue index used to wake the peer txq in veth_poll
veth_poll() derives the index of the peer TX queue to wake from
rq->xdp_rxq.queue_index. That field is only initialized by
xdp_rxq_info_reg() in veth_enable_xdp_range(), which runs only when an
XDP program is attached. On the plain GRO/NAPI path
(veth_napi_enable_range()) xdp_rxq_info_reg() is never called, so
queue_index stays 0 for every queue, as priv->rq is zero-allocated.
So in a multi-queue setup with GRO enabled and no XDP program attached,
every NAPI instance looks at the peer's TX queue 0. If veth_xmit()
net: ngbe: fix NULL pointer dereference in non-MSI-X interrupt enabling
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ngbe: fix NULL pointer dereference in non-MSI-X interrupt enabling
In non-MSI-X mode (such as legacy INTx or single MSI), wx->msix_entry is
not allocated or initialized. Calling NGBE_INTR_MISC(wx) dereferences
wx->msix_entry->entry, leading to a NULL pointer dereference crash.
This issue was introduced by fixing the IRQ vector when the number of
VFs is 7. Fix the issue by explicitly checking `pdev->msix_enabled` to
determine the correct vector index.
Additionally, as a side fix, set the interrupt mask to BIT(0) for the
non-MSI-X fallback. In MSI/INTx mode, the MISC a
net/sched: act_api: fix TOCTOU NULL deref on a->goto_chain
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: act_api: fix TOCTOU NULL deref on a->goto_chain
tcf_action_exec() handles TC_ACT_GOTO_CHAIN by first checking
rcu_access_pointer(a->goto_chain) and then calling
tcf_action_goto_chain_exec(), which does a second, independent
rcu_dereference_bh(a->goto_chain) read and immediately dereferences
chain->filter_chain. A concurrent tcf_action_set_ctrlact() (e.g. the gact
replace path) can clear a->goto_chain between the two reads, so the second
read returns NULL and tcf_action_goto_chain_exec() dereferences NULL.
Fix the race by doing a single rcu_dereference_bh() read
net/sched: cls_u32: skip hash tables in u32_bind_class()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: cls_u32: skip hash tables in u32_bind_class()
u32_walk() enumerates both struct tc_u_hnode and struct tc_u_knode
through the walker callback. u32_bind_class() unconditionally casts the
passed fh to tc_u_knode and accesses &n->res, so when fh is actually a
tc_u_hnode, which has no tcf_result member, this results in a
slab-out-of-bounds read of res->classid in tc_cls_bind_class().
The issue can be reproduced with the following commands:
tc qdisc add dev lo root handle 1: hfsc
tc class add dev lo parent 1: classid 1:1 hfsc sc rate 1000kbit

regmap: sdw-mbq: don't call an unset readable_reg callback
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
regmap: sdw-mbq: don't call an unset readable_reg callback
regmap_sdw_mbq_poll_busy() decides whether to poll the Function Busy bit
by calling ctx->readable_reg(), which is a straight copy of
config->readable_reg. That callback is optional: regmap_readable() treats
a NULL ->readable_reg as "every register is readable", and drivers rely on
that. es9356 and tac5xx2-sdw both build an MBQ regmap without one.
Since commit ca1b11b36d82 ("regmap: sdw-mbq: Allow defers on undeferrable
controls") the poll runs on every -ENODATA, not only for Controls the

net: ethernet: ti: am65-cpsw-nuss: Fix port_id extraction from SRC TAG
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: ti: am65-cpsw-nuss: Fix port_id extraction from SRC TAG
On the packet reception path, the ID of the MAC Port on which the packet
was received, is embedded in the RX DMA Descriptor's metadata. The ID is
extracted using the helper function cppi5_desc_get_tags_ids() which fills
in the 16-bit Source Tag into the 'port_id' variable. However, it is only
the lower 8-bits of the 16-bit Source Tag that represent the MAC Port ID,
while the upper 8-bits are Hardware-Reserved and carry an arbitrary value.
With the existing logic, sporadic kernel crash is observed due to
net/sched: cls_bpf: reject dev-bound programs bound to a different device
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: cls_bpf: reject dev-bound programs bound to a different device
cls_bpf_prog_from_efd() obtained a SCHED_CLS program via
bpf_prog_get_type_dev() but never verified that a device-bound (offloaded)
program's bound netdev matches the TC netdev the classifier is being
attached to. This let a program loaded with prog_ifindex for device A be
attached via cls_bpf + skip_sw to device B; deleting device A then
destroyed the program's offload state while it was still attached to
device B, triggering a netdevsim WARN (panic with panic_on_warn=1).

l2tp: fix tunnel and session refcount leak on seq_file release
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
l2tp: fix tunnel and session refcount leak on seq_file release
In pppol2tp_proc_open() and l2tp_dfs_seq_open(), iteration state
(pd->tunnel and pd->session) is kept in seq_file private data to allow
iteration across multiple read() system calls.
However, if userspace closes /proc/net/pppol2tp or /sys/kernel/debug/l2tp/tunnels
before reading to end-of-file (EOF), any tunnel or session reference stored in
pd->tunnel / pd->session is left un-dropped when seq_file private data is freed.
Fix this by dropping any remaining pd->tunnel and pd->session references in
pppol2tp_proc_
firewire: ohci: fix NULL pointer dereference in ar_context_release
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firewire: ohci: fix NULL pointer dereference in ar_context_release
During the error handling path of the driver's probe function, a NULL
pointer dereference can occur in ar_context_release().
When pci_probe() fails early (e.g., if pcim_enable_device() or MMIO mapping
fails), the devres cleanup mechanism invokes release_ohci(). This function
unconditionally calls ar_context_release() to clean up the asynchronous
receive contexts. However, if ar_context_init() was not yet called,
ctx->ohci remains NULL (as the fw_ohci structure is zero-initialized by
devres_alloc()).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: pca953x: fix pca953x_irq_bus_sync_unlock regmap lock
Locking is disabled in the regmap config as this driver uses its own
lock. This means that all calls to regmap functions (read or write) must
hold the i2c_lock. The function pca953x_irq_bus_sync_unlock() did not do
this, and it was therefore possible that multiple threads could cause an
incorrect register to be read/written.
A previous patch partly fixed this, but only protected the write to the
interrupt mask register, and not the read from the direction register.
NFS: Pin the 'struct nfs_server' during a FREE_STATEID call
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFS: Pin the 'struct nfs_server' during a FREE_STATEID call
Dan Aloni reports that he was able to hit a use-after-free bug if a
FREE_STATEID operation gets delayed for whatever reason. Fix this by
bumping the refcount of the 'struct nfs_server' object for the duration
of the FREE_STATEID so it doesn't get cleaned up from underneath us
while operations are still in flight.
soc: aspeed: lpc-snoop: Fix usercopy overflow in snoop_file_read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soc: aspeed: lpc-snoop: Fix usercopy overflow in snoop_file_read
put_fifo_with_discard() acts as both producer and consumer on the kfifo:
it calls kfifo_skip() (advances out) and kfifo_put() (advances in) from
the IRQ handler without synchronizing with snoop_file_read(), which also
consumes via kfifo_to_user(). On SMP systems this concurrent access can
leave (in - out) larger than the ring buffer, so __kfifo_to_user()'s clamp
to (in - out) is ineffective and kfifo_copy_to_user() can attempt a
copy_to_user() past the kmalloc-2k backing store:

When xfs_buf_alloc_backing_mem() fails, xfs_buf_free() is called with
bp->b_addr still NULL. The code falls through to the folio_put path

ovpn: skip rehash for peers already removed from by_id
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ovpn: skip rehash for peers already removed from by_id
ovpn_nl_peer_set_doit() resolves the target peer via
ovpn_peer_get_by_id() before taking ovpn->lock. In the window between
the lookup (which only takes a refcount) and the subsequent
spin_lock_bh(&ovpn->lock), a concurrent OVPN_CMD_PEER_DEL, keepalive
expiry, or socket teardown can take ovpn->lock first, run
ovpn_peer_remove() to unhash the peer from all four tables (by_id,
by_vpn_addr4/6, by_transp_addr) and release the lock. set_doit then
acquires ovpn->lock and calls ovpn_peer_hash_vpn_ip(), which
re-inserts the now-
bonding: alb: re-check primary_is_promisc under RTNL in bond_alb_monitor
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bonding: alb: re-check primary_is_promisc under RTNL in bond_alb_monitor
bond_alb_monitor() reads primary_is_promisc under RCU, then drops RCU and
takes RTNL via rtnl_trylock() before undoing the promiscuity it set on the
active slave. In that window the active slave can change under RTNL
(RTM_DELLINK -> __bond_release_one() -> bond_alb_handle_active_change()),
which already drops the promiscuity and clears primary_is_promisc. The
monitor still acts on the stale decision: if the slave was removed with no
failover, curr_active_slave is now NULL and the deref faults; if it fa
enic: fix tx_hang_reset use-after-free on device removal
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
enic: fix tx_hang_reset use-after-free on device removal
enic_remove() cancels the reset and change_mtu_work items but does not
cancel tx_hang_reset. A TX timeout that fires while the device is being
removed can schedule enic_tx_hang_reset() so that it runs after
free_netdev(), resulting in a use-after-free.
cancel_work_sync() alone is not sufficient here: the still-live watchdog
and notify paths can re-schedule these work items in the window between
the cancel and unregister_netdev(). Use disable_work_sync(), which
cancels the work and blocks any subsequent schedule_work(
