batman-adv: bla: fix report_work leak on backbone_gw purge
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: bla: fix report_work leak on backbone_gw purge
batadv_bla_purge_backbone_gw() removes stale backbone gateway entries,
but fails to properly handle their associated report_work:
- If report_work is running, the purge must wait for it to finish before
freeing the backbone_gw, otherwise the worker may access freed memory
(e.g. bat_priv).
- If report_work is pending, the purge must cancel it and release the
reference held for that pending work item.
The previous implementation called hlist_for_each_entry_safe() inside a
spin_lock_bh() section, but cancel_wor
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (lm90) Add lock protection to lm90_alert
Sashiko reports:
lm90_alert() executes in the smbus alert context and calls
lm90_update_confreg() to disable the hardware alert line, without
acquiring hwmon_lock.
Concurrently, sysfs write operations (such as lm90_write_convrate) hold
the hwmon_lock, temporarily modify data->config, and then restore it.
If an alert interrupt occurs concurrently with a sysfs write, the sysfs
path will overwrite the alert handler's modifications to data->config
and the hardware register.
This unintentionally re-enables the hardware alert li
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: xsk: Fix unlocked writing to ICOSQ
During napi poll, when the affinity changes and there's still XSK work
to be done, we trigger an ICOSQ interrupt on the new CPU. However, this
triggering on the ICOSQ is done unprotected.
There are 2 such races:
A) mlx5e_trigger_irq() is called while mlx5e_xsk_alloc_rx_mpwqe() is
running from a different CPU due to affinity change. This can happen
because IRQ triggering is done after napi_complete_done(). At this point
the NAPI can be scheduled on a different CPU. Like this:
CPU A (old affinity, NAPI tail) CPU B (new aff

xfs: resample the data fork mapping after cycling ILOCK
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: resample the data fork mapping after cycling ILOCK
xfs_reflink_fill_{cow_hole,delalloc} are both presented with an inode,
a data fork mapping, and a cow fork mapping. Unfortunately, these two
helpers cycle the ILOCK to grab a transaction, which means that the
mappings are stale as soon as we reacquire the ILOCK. Currently we
refresh the cow fork mapping by re-calling xfs_find_trim_cow_extent, but
we don't refresh the data fork mapping beforehand, which means that the
xfs_bmap_trim_cow in that function queries the refcount btree about the
wrong physical blocks and ret
Bluetooth: L2CAP: cancel pending_rx_work before taking conn->lock
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: cancel pending_rx_work before taking conn->lock
l2cap_conn_del() takes conn->lock and then calls cancel_work_sync() for
pending_rx_work. process_pending_rx() takes the same mutex, so teardown
can deadlock against the worker it is flushing.
This issue was found by our static analysis tool and then manually
reviewed against the current tree.
The grounded PoC kept the l2cap_conn_ready() -> queue_work(...,
&conn->pending_rx_work) submit path, the l2cap_conn_del() ->
cancel_work_sync(&conn->pending_rx_work) teardown path, and the
process_pending_rx() -> mute
bpf: Reject BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE creation if BPF LSM is uninitialized
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Reject BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE creation if BPF LSM is uninitialized
When CONFIG_BPF_LSM=y is set, BPF inode storage maps
(BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE) are compiled into the kernel. However,
if the BPF LSM is not explicitly enabled at boot time (e.g. omitted
from the "lsm=" boot parameter), lsm_prepare() is never executed for
the BPF LSM.
Consequently, the BPF inode security blob offset
(bpf_lsm_blob_sizes.lbs_inode) is never initialized and remains at
its default compiled size of 8 bytes instead of being updated to a
valid offset past the reserved struct rcu_head (t
i2c: stub: Reject I2C block transfers with invalid length
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: stub: Reject I2C block transfers with invalid length
The I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA case in stub_xfer() uses data->block[0]
as the transfer length. The existing check only clamps it to avoid
overrunning the chip->words[256] register array, but does not validate
it against I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX (32), which is the limit of the union
i2c_smbus_data.block buffer (34 bytes total). The driver is a
development/test tool (CONFIG_I2C_STUB=m, not built by default)
that must be loaded with a chip_addr= parameter.
A local user with access to /dev/i2c-* can issue an I2C_SMBUS ioctl

net: team: fix NULL pointer dereference in team_xmit during mode change
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: team: fix NULL pointer dereference in team_xmit during mode change
__team_change_mode() clears team->ops with memset() before restoring
safe dummy handlers via team_adjust_ops(). A concurrent team_xmit()
running under RCU on another CPU can read team->ops.transmit during
this window and call a NULL function pointer, crashing the kernel.
The race requires a mode change (CAP_NET_ADMIN) concurrent with
transmit on the team device.

netfilter: ipset: fix race between dump and ip_set_list resize
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ipset: fix race between dump and ip_set_list resize
The release path of ip_set_dump_do() and ip_set_dump_done() read
inst->ip_set_list via ip_set_ref_netlink(), a plain rcu_dereference_raw()
of the array pointer. These run from netlink_recvmsg() without the nfnl
mutex and without an RCU read-side critical section.
A concurrent ip_set_create() can grow the array: it publishes the new
array, calls synchronize_net() and then kvfree()s the old one. Since the
dump paths read the array outside any RCU reader, synchronize_net() does
not wait for them and the old array
net: qualcomm: rmnet: fix endpoint use-after-free in rmnet_dellink()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: qualcomm: rmnet: fix endpoint use-after-free in rmnet_dellink()
rmnet_dellink() removes the endpoint from the hash table with
hlist_del_init_rcu() and then immediately frees it with kfree(). However,
RCU readers on the receive path (rmnet_rx_handler ->
__rmnet_map_ingress_handler) may still hold a reference to the endpoint and
dereference ep->egress_dev after the memory has been freed. The endpoint is
a kmalloc-32 object, and the stale read at offset 8 corresponds to the
egress_dev pointer.

xfs: fail recovery on a committed log item with no regions
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: fail recovery on a committed log item with no regions
If the first op of a transaction is a bare transaction header
(len == sizeof(struct xfs_trans_header)), xlog_recover_add_to_trans()
adds an item but no region, leaving it on r_itemq with ri_cnt == 0 and
ri_buf == NULL.
The header can be split across op records, so later ops may still add
regions; the item is only invalid if the transaction commits with none.
The runtime commit path never emits such a transaction, so this only
happens on a crafted log. It came from an AI-assisted code audit of the
recovery parser.
sysfs: don't remove existing directory on update failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sysfs: don't remove existing directory on update failure
When sysfs_update_group() is called for a named group and create_files()
fails (e.g. -ENOMEM), internal_create_group() calls kernfs_remove(kn) on
the group directory. In the update path, kn was obtained via
kernfs_find_and_get() and refers to a directory that already existed
before this call. Removing it silently destroys a sysfs group that the
caller did not create.
Only remove the directory if we created it ourselves. On update failure
the directory remains as it is left empty by remove_files() inside
create_fil
net: wwan: iosm: fix potential memory leaks in ipc_imem_init()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: wwan: iosm: fix potential memory leaks in ipc_imem_init()
The memory allocated in ipc_protocol_init() is not freed on the error
paths that follow in ipc_imem_init(). Fix that by calling the
corresponding release function ipc_protocol_deinit() in the error path.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: bnep: Fix UAF read of dev->name
bnep_add_connection() needs to keep holding the bnep_session_sem while
reading dev->name (just like bnep_get_connlist() does); otherwise the
bnep_session() thread can concurrently free the net_device, which can for
example be triggered by a concurrent bnep_del_connection().
(This UAF is fairly uninteresting from a security perspective;
calling bnep_add_connection() requires passing a capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN)
check. It also requires completely tearing down a netdev during a fairly
tight race window.)
phonet/pep: disable BH around forwarded sk_receive_skb()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
phonet/pep: disable BH around forwarded sk_receive_skb()
The networking receive path is usually run from softirq context, but
protocols that take the socket lock may have packets stored in the
backlog and processed later from process context. In that case
release_sock() -> __release_sock() drops the slock with spin_unlock_bh()
and then calls sk->sk_backlog_rcv() with bottom halves enabled.
Typical sk_backlog_rcv handlers process the socket whose backlog is
being drained, so the BH state at entry is irrelevant for the slocks
they touch. pep_do_rcv() is different: when the i

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: advance loop vars in cfg80211_merge_profile()
cfg80211_merge_profile() reassembles a Multi-BSSID non-transmitted BSS
profile that has been split across multiple consecutive MBSSID elements.
Its while-loop calls
cfg80211_get_profile_continuation(ie, ielen, mbssid_elem, sub_elem)
but never advances mbssid_elem or sub_elem inside the body. Each
iteration therefore searches for a continuation that follows the same
fixed pair; the helper returns the same next_mbssid; and the same
next_sub bytes are memcpy()'d into merged_ie at a growing offset until

tracing: Do not call map->ops->elt_free() if elt_alloc() fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Do not call map->ops->elt_free() if elt_alloc() fails
In paths where tracing_map_elt_alloc() failed to allocate objects,
the map->ops->elt_alloc() call was never successful. In this case,
map->ops->elt_free() should not be called.
spi: qup: fix error pointer deref after DMA setup failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: qup: fix error pointer deref after DMA setup failure
The driver falls back to PIO mode if DMA setup fails during probe.
Make sure to the clear the DMA channel pointers on setup failure to
avoid dereferencing an error pointer (or attempting to release a channel
a second time) on later probe errors or driver unbind.
This issue was flagged by Sashiko when reviewing a devres allocation
conversion patch.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: sprd: fix error pointer deref after DMA setup failure
The driver falls back to PIO mode if DMA setup fails during probe.
Make sure to check the dma.enabled flag before trying to release the DMA
channels also on late probe errors to avoid dereferencing an error
pointer (or attempting to release a channel a second time).
This issue was flagged by Sashiko when reviewing a devres allocation
conversion patch.
firmware: arm_ffa: Check for NULL FF-A ID table while driver registration
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_ffa: Check for NULL FF-A ID table while driver registration
The bus match callback assumes that every FF-A driver provides an
id_table and dereferences it unconditionally. Enforce that contract at
registration time so a buggy client driver cannot crash the bus during
match.
