In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/packet: prevent TX_RING byte count overflow
tpacket_snd() drains every SEND_REQUEST frame in a TX ring and adds
each valid packet length to the signed int len_sum. Userspace can
recycle completed frames concurrently, so a single blocking send call
is not bounded by the ring size.
After enough successful transmissions len_sum wraps into the negative
range. In particular, 65536 65535-byte frames followed by a 65007-byte
frame produce 0xfffffdef, or -EIOCBQUEUED. sock_sendmsg_nosec() treats
that as an impossible return and triggers a BUG. On systems configured
to panic on
rtc: spear: initialize IRQ state before requesting alarm IRQ
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rtc: spear: initialize IRQ state before requesting alarm IRQ
devm_request_irq() enables the interrupt before it returns, so the handler
may run while probe is still initializing the device. Initialize the MMIO
address and spinlock before requesting the alarm IRQ.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: reject short WMI command responses
ath9k_wmi_rsp_callback() removes the validated WMI header and copies
the number of bytes expected by the waiting command into its response
buffer. A device response shorter than that expectation can therefore
be read beyond the skb payload.
Record -EMSGSIZE for a short response, complete the waiter, and return
the stored status from the command path. This also prevents callers from
consuming stale response bytes as a successful reply.
wifi: ath9k_htc: bound TX aggregation to MAX_TX_BUF_SIZE
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k_htc: bound TX aggregation to MAX_TX_BUF_SIZE
__hif_usb_tx() dequeues up to MAX_TX_AGGR_NUM (20) frames into a
single tx_buf of MAX_TX_BUF_SIZE (32768) bytes, limiting the batch
by record count but never by cumulative byte length.
With large frames (MTU 2304), 20 aggregated frames of 2292 bytes
each exceed the allocation (20 * 2296 = 45920 bytes), so the
memcpy() in the loop writes up to 13152 bytes past tx_buf->buf
before usb_submit_urb().
Peek the queue head and stop before copying any record that would
cross MAX_TX_BUF_SIZE, then dispatch the current batch.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: validate TX status rate metadata
minstrel_ht_tx_status() converts the HT/VHT rate reported in a TX status
into a group and rate index and uses those to index the minstrel_ht rate
tables. The existing validation only checked that an entry was present
and had tries recorded; it did not check that the reported MCS, spatial
stream count and bandwidth are representable by the tables, so malformed
metadata passed to minstrel_ht_get_stats() or
minstrel_ht_ri_get_stats() could be used as an out-of-bounds index.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvme: fix cdev lifetime
Sashiko bot reported a potential problem for the cdev lifetime in [0]
- the code there is heavily based on the NVMe code.
Currently the NS head .open and .release file_operations methods take and
put a reference to the nvme_ns_head to ensure that this structure does not
disappear while we open fds for that cdev.
In multipath mode, when we teardown the NS head, we call nvme_cdev_del() ->
cdev_device_del() -> cdev_del(). However after cdev_del() returns, cdevs
already open will remain and their fops will still be callable. As such,
we can still refer
wifi: mac80211: fix slab-out-of-bounds read in ieee80211_monitor_select_queue()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: fix slab-out-of-bounds read in ieee80211_monitor_select_queue()
ieee80211_monitor_select_queue() validates the skb length using skb->len
before dereferencing pointers into skb->data to access the 802.11 header.
However, skb->len includes data in both the linear head buffer and
non-linear fragments/pages. When AF_PACKET sends a packet large enough to
become non-linear, the 802.11 header at skb->data + len_rthdr may extend
past the linear head buffer even though skb->len appears sufficient.
This leads to a slab-out-of-bounds read when accessing hdr->frame_con
ipvs: filter some flags received in the backup server
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvs: filter some flags received in the backup server
While the IPVS SYNC protocol is not secure by design
we can still protect the backup server from messages that
can wreak havoc.
This commit addresses problems from received connection flags
or their combinations. We now drop messages as follows:
1. the NO_CPORT+TEMPLATE combination allows lookups for normal
connections to hit template which can break in many ways.
While the master does not sync connections with NO_CPORT flag,
i.e. before they are established, we still accept NO_CPORT
without TEMPLATE.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu/gfx6: fix firmware leak on teardown
The firmware requested in gfx_v6_0_init_microcode() is not released
when the GFX block is torn down, leaking the firmware resources.
Add gfx_v6_0_free_microcode() and call it from gfx_v6_0_sw_fini()
to release the PFP, ME, CE and RLC firmware.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: fix port tear down use-after-free
Some drivers for multiport devices access port driver data from
completion handlers of shared URBs submitted at attach() or first open()
and stopped at disconnect() or last close(), respectively.
A simple NULL check before accessing the driver data makes sure that a
port state container has at least been allocated, but a completion
handler can still race with port tear down.
Reorder the disconnect handling so that ports are not deregistered (and
their driver data freed) until after all ports have been hung up and the
driver d
usb: storage: sierra_ms: reject short SWoC info transfers
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: storage: sierra_ms: reject short SWoC info transfers
sierra_get_swoc_info() requests sizeof(struct swoc_info) (60) bytes
from the device via usb_control_msg(), but its callers only treat a
negative return value as failure. A device that answers the
vendor-specific GetSwocInfo request with a short IN transfer is
therefore accepted, leaving the tail of the freshly allocated
(kmalloc(), non-zeroing) swoc_info buffer uninitialized.
truinst_show() subsequently prints swocInfo->rev, swocInfo->LinuxSKU
and swocInfo->LinuxVer from that buffer into the world-readable

usb: gadget: f_uac1_legacy: validate bRequest index in generic_{set,get}_cmd
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_uac1_legacy: validate bRequest index in generic_{set,get}_cmd
generic_set_cmd() and generic_get_cmd() use the low nibble of
ctrl->bRequest as an index into con->data[]:
u8 cmd = (ctrl->bRequest & 0x0F); /* 0 .. 15 */
...
con->data[cmd] = value; /* OOB when cmd >= 5 */

usb: core: clear both ep_in and ep_out for non-ep0 control endpoints
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: core: clear both ep_in and ep_out for non-ep0 control endpoints
In usb_enable_endpoint(), non-zero control endpoints (where
usb_endpoint_xfer_control(&ep->desc) is true) populate both
dev->ep_in[epnum] and dev->ep_out[epnum] with the same struct
usb_host_endpoint pointer.
However, usb_disable_endpoint() only clears either dev->ep_out[epnum] or
dev->ep_in[epnum] depending on the direction bit of epaddr when
reset_hardware is set, leaving the opposite direction's array slot
pointing to the disabled/freed endpoint.
Clear both dev->ep_out[epnum] and dev->ep_in[epnum] whe
USB: dwc2: shut down wakeup timer before freeing HCD state
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: dwc2: shut down wakeup timer before freeing HCD state
dwc2_wakeup_detected() accesses the DWC2 host state and can rearm the
wakeup timer. dwc2_hcd_free() currently deletes the timer only after
freeing host-owned state, and timer_delete() does not synchronize a
callback or prevent it from being queued again.
Stop and shut down the timer in dwc2_hcd_release(), before the HCD
resources are freed. This covers both the HCD initialization error path
and normal HCD removal.
tty: vcc: zero-initialize control packet in vcc_send_ctl()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: vcc: zero-initialize control packet in vcc_send_ctl()
The stack-allocated struct vio_vcc pkt was partially initialized,
leaving the tag.stype_env field uninitialized before being sent via
ldc_write(), potentially leaking kernel stack data to the LDC peer.
tty: vcc: hold port lock when clearing tty pointer in vcc_cleanup
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: vcc: hold port lock when clearing tty pointer in vcc_cleanup
vcc_cleanup() sets port->tty to NULL without holding port->lock, racing
with vcc_event() LDC callbacks that read port->tty under port->lock and
then use tty->port. This can cause a use-after-free when the callback
dereferences tty->port after cleanup has already destroyed and freed it.
tty: tty_port: restore TTY_IO_ERROR on activation failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: tty_port: restore TTY_IO_ERROR on activation failure
Make sure to restore the TTY_IO_ERROR flag if activation fails to
prevent I/O attempts on a port that is gone or powered down.
This specifically avoids issues like kernel panic due to unclocked
accesses or NULL-pointer dereferences when accessing powered down or
deregistered ports when a TTY ioctl races with hangup and open.
Note that the flag is set again in tty_port_close() but not restoring it
on activation failure leaves a window where drivers fail to handle the
ioctl-hangup race.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: port: fix tty_port_tty_vhangup() race
Drivers rely on tty_port_tty_vhangup() to synchronously hang up their
ports before tearing down resources as part of deregistration (e.g. on
physical disconnect).
If tty_port_tty_vhangup() races with another hangup it may however
return before the port has been shut down. This is in turn can lead to
use-after-free and NULL-pointer dereferences in racing ioctls (including
a synchronous hangup) and in processing of racing asynchronous hangups
(carrier loss).
Add the missing serialisation to tty_port_tty_vhangup() and
tty_port_hangu
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: abort break signalling on hangup
The break ioctls can race with hangup and end up calling into a tty
driver for a device that is already gone or powered down.
Drivers must handle this race, but TCSBRK and TCSBRKP should still be
aborted to avoid calling back into the driver after a user-controlled
timeout (possibly even after the tty has been reopened).
Note that drivers should disable any break state on shutdown so just
return on hangup (calling break_ctl() again is racy and will most likely
fail for drivers handling the race).
