net/sched: act_ct: fix sk_buff leak when the header checks reject a packet
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: act_ct: fix sk_buff leak when the header checks reject a packet
tcf_ct_handle_fragments() runs its header sanity checks before handing
anything to the defragmentation engine:
if (family == NFPROTO_IPV4)
err = tcf_ct_ipv4_is_fragment(skb, &frag);
else
err = tcf_ct_ipv6_is_fragment(skb, &frag);
if (err || !frag)
return err;
tcf_ct_ipv4_is_fragment() returns -EINVAL or -ENOMEM;
tcf_ct_ipv6_is_fragment() adds -EPROTO when ipv6_find_hdr() fails. None of
them frees or queues the skb, so on that path the caller still owns it.
tcf_ct_act() however funnels eve
net/sched: act_gact, act_police: range check the fallback control action
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: act_gact, act_police: range check the fallback control action
tcf_action_check_ctrlact() range checks the primary control action:
if (!opcode)
ret = action > TC_ACT_VALUE_MAX ? -EINVAL : 0;
TC_ACT_VALUE_MAX is TC_ACT_TRAP, so kernel-internal verdicts above it
cannot be set that way. But act_gact and act_police each carry a second,
independent control action supplied by user space that never reaches that
helper - TCA_GACT_PROB.paction and TCA_POLICE_RESULT. Both only reject

xdp: reject clones that overrun skb_shared_info tailroom
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xdp: reject clones that overrun skb_shared_info tailroom
xdpf_clone() clones broadcast copies into a single page and sets
frame_sz to PAGE_SIZE. __xdp_build_skb_from_frame() later treats that
page like a normal XDP frame and expects the usual skb_shared_info
tailroom at the end of the buffer.
The current check only rejects frames whose linear xdp_frame header,
headroom, and packet data exceed PAGE_SIZE. A source frame backed by a
larger allocation can still satisfy that check while extending into the
clone's required shared-info area. When such a clone is converted back

vxlan: do not arm the ageing timer on a device that is down
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vxlan: do not arm the ageing timer on a device that is down
vxlan_changelink() arms vxlan->age_timer whenever the requested ageing
interval differs from the configured one:
if (conf.age_interval != vxlan->cfg.age_interval)
mod_timer(&vxlan->age_timer, jiffies);
There is no netif_running() test, so the timer is armed even on a device
that was never brought up. The only synchronous cancel in the driver is
the timer_delete_sync() in vxlan_stop(), which is .ndo_stop.
netif_close_many() drops devices without IFF_UP before
__dev_close_many() runs, so that cancel is skipped

vsock/virtio: read virtqueues under worker locks
Commit bd50c5dc182b ("vsock/virtio: add support for device
suspend/resume") made the *_run flags transition from false to true when
restore installs replacement virtqueues. The RX, TX and event workers
read their virtqueue before locking and checking the corresponding flag,
so a worker delayed across freeze and restore can observe the replacement
queue's running state while retaining a pointer to the deleted queue.
Read each virtqueue under its mutex after checking the run flag, keeping
the pointer and state in the same que

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock/virtio: avoid refilling the RX queue after teardown
Commit b917507e5ad9 ("vsock/virtio: stop workers during the .remove()")
made the RX worker jump to its common exit when rx_run is clear. That
exit still refills the RX queue when the buffer count is low, so work
queued across virtio_vsock_vqs_del() can add buffers after the virtqueues
have been deleted.

tipc: read le->link under the node lock in tipc_node_link_down()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: read le->link under the node lock in tipc_node_link_down()
tipc_node_link_down() caches the link pointer before taking n->lock:
struct tipc_link *l = le->link; /* unlocked */
if (!l)
return;
tipc_node_write_lock(n);
if (!tipc_link_is_establishing(l)) { /* deref l */
...
tipc_link_reset(l); /* write into l */
if (delete) {
kfree(l);
le->link = NULL;
The delete=true caller frees that very object under n->lock, so the lock
does not protect the cached pointer against it:

ring-buffer: Use current_context for safe per-CPU buffer swap
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ring-buffer: Use current_context for safe per-CPU buffer swap
The ring_buffer_swap_cpu() function currently checks the per-CPU
committing counter to determine if a buffer is actively being written to
before performing the swap. However, there exists a race window where
this check can be bypassed:
ring_buffer_lock_reserve
cpu_buffer = buffer->buffers[cpu]; // cpu_buffer_a
rb_reserve_next_event
rb_start_commit // inc committing
if (unlikely(READ_ONCE(cpu_buffer->buffer) != buffer)) {...}

mm/ptdump: always stabilise against page table freeing using init_mm
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/ptdump: always stabilise against page table freeing using init_mm
Previous commits have established the invariant that kernel page table
freeing is performed while an mmap read lock on init_mm is held, which
fixes races between ptdump and kernel page table freeing over init_mm.
However, x86 and arm64 can perform a ptdump over an mm other than init_mm
via ptdump_walk_pgd() and since kernel memory ranges are shared across
non-kernel mm's, this means that the race still exists for these cases.
Fix this by acquiring a nested mmap write lock for init_mm in
ptdump_walk_pgd()
ipv6: fix Route Information option length validation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: fix Route Information option length validation
rt6_route_rcv() validates the Route Information option (RFC 4191) length
against the prefix length, but both checks are off by one.
rinfo->length is the ND option length in units of 8 octets and it
*includes* the 8-byte option header, so an option carrying N bytes of
prefix has length == 1 + N/8. RFC 4191 section 2.3 requires length 3
when Prefix Length is greater than 64, and 2 or 3 when it is greater
than 0. The code accepts length >= 2 and length >= 1 respectively.
ipv6_addr_prefix() then copies prefix_len/8 bytes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip6_tunnel: clear skb2->cb[] in ip6ip6_err()
ip6ip6_err() clones an outer IPv6 ICMP error skb, pulls it to the
quoted inner IPv6 packet, and then passes the clone to icmpv6_send().
The clone still carries the outer packet's inet6_skb_parm in skb->cb.
If the outer packet had a Home Address Option, IP6CB(skb2)->dsthao
remains non-zero after skb_pull(). icmpv6_send() later calls
mip6_addr_swap(), which uses that stale dsthao offset against the quoted
inner packet. A malformed inner destination-options header can then make
the HAO lookup and address swap run past the end of th
fscrypt: use the mount idmap for the owner check in fscrypt_ioctl_set_policy()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fscrypt: use the mount idmap for the owner check in fscrypt_ioctl_set_policy()
fscrypt_ioctl_set_policy() calls inode_owner_or_capable() with
&nop_mnt_idmap before allowing an encryption policy to be set, instead
of the idmap of the mount the ioctl was issued on.
fscrypt is used by filesystems that support idmapped mounts (e.g. ext4,
f2fs), so on such a mount this compares the caller's fsuid against the
unmapped on-disk owner rather than the mapped owner: the actual owner
can be wrongly denied with -EACCES and an unrelated caller wrongly
allowed. Use file_mnt_idmap(filp)

ima: Instantiate file_truncate and path_truncate hooks
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ima: Instantiate file_truncate and path_truncate hooks
Instantiate the file_truncate and path_truncate LSM hooks to reset the
action cache flags (IMA_DONE_MASK) as soon as truncation is requested,
so the file, based on policy, is re-collected, re-measured, re-audited,
and re-appraised on next access.
bpf, sockmap: Fix sk_redir use-after-free in send verdict
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, sockmap: Fix sk_redir use-after-free in send verdict
sk_psock_msg_verdict() takes a socket reference for psock->sk_redir.
tcp_bpf_send_verdict() copies that pointer while holding the source socket
lock, but does not take a reference for the local copy before dropping the
lock around tcp_bpf_sendmsg_redir().
When apply_bytes keeps the cached verdict active, another sendmsg() on the
same source socket can consume the remaining bytes and release the cached
reference while the first thread still holds only the raw local pointer:

sctp: keep chunk->transport in step with the list it is queued on
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: keep chunk->transport in step with the list it is queued on
__sctp_outq_flush_rtx() moves a gap-acked chunk onto another transport's
transmitted list without updating chunk->transport:
if (chunk->tsn_gap_acked) {
list_move_tail(&chunk->transmitted_list,
&transport->transmitted);
continue;
}
The chunk then sits on a live transport's list while chunk->transport still
names a different one. If that transport is removed - sctp_assoc_rm_peer()
from an ASCONF Delete-IP - sctp_transport_free() RCU-frees it and the chunk
is left with a dangling pointer. sc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: fix use-after-free of cached ASCONF chunk
addip_last_asconf caches the outstanding outbound ASCONF chunk. The normal
ASCONF-ACK completion path releases the chunk and clears the pointer.
However, sctp_asconf_queue_teardown() releases the cached chunk without
clearing addip_last_asconf. During peer restart handling,
sctp_sf_do_dupcook_a() queues SCTP_CMD_PURGE_ASCONF_QUEUE, which invokes
sctp_asconf_queue_teardown() while the association remains alive and leaves
the pointer dangling.
A delayed authenticated ASCONF-ACK can then reach sctp_sf_do_asconf_ack(),
which acc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: clear new_transport when removing a peer
sctp_process_asconf_param() stores a newly added peer transport in
asoc->new_transport. After all parameters in the ASCONF chunk have been
processed, sctp_sf_do_asconf() uses this pointer to send a HEARTBEAT to the
new transport.
An authenticated ASCONF from a remote SCTP peer can add a transport and
remove it again with a wildcard DEL-IP parameter in the same chunk. The
wildcard deletion preserves the transport on which the ASCONF arrived, but
removes the newly added transport through
sctp_assoc_del_nonprimary_peers(). The re
thunderbolt: Bound the DROM dual link port number before indexing sw->ports
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thunderbolt: Bound the DROM dual link port number before indexing sw->ports
tb_drom_parse_entry_port() validates the device-supplied header->index
against sw->config.max_port_number before indexing sw->ports[], but the
sibling field entry->dual_link_port_nr -- a 6-bit value also read from
the DROM -- indexes the same array with no such check. A malicious or
malformed Thunderbolt device can set dual_link_port_nr beyond the
allocated sw->ports[] (max_port_number + 1 entries), producing an
out-of-bounds tb_port pointer that is stored and later dereferenced.
