hwmon: (corsair-psu) Stop device IO before calling hid_hw_stop
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (corsair-psu) Stop device IO before calling hid_hw_stop
hid_hw_stop() does not stop the device IO.
This results in a race condition between hid_input_report() and the point
immediately following the execution of hid_device_io_start() within
corsairpsu_probe(). If the probe operation fails after "io start" has
been initiated, this race condition will result in a uaf vulnerability

hwmon: (corsair-cpro) Stop device IO before calling hid_hw_stop
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (corsair-cpro) Stop device IO before calling hid_hw_stop
Calling hid_hw_stop() does not stop the device IO.
This results in a race condition between hid_input_report() and the point
immediately following the execution of hid_device_io_start() within
the driver probe function. If the probe operation fails after "io start"
has been initiated, this race condition will result in a UAF vulnerability.
Fix the problem by calling hid_device_io_stop() before calling
hid_hw_stop().
watchdog: pretimeout: Fix UAF in watchdog_unregister_governor()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
watchdog: pretimeout: Fix UAF in watchdog_unregister_governor()
When a watchdog governor is unregistered, it updates existing watchdog
devices that were using this governor by falling back to `default_gov`.
If the governor being unregistered is currently set as `default_gov`,
the `default_gov` is never cleared. This leads to 2 use-after-free
issues:
1. New watchdog devices registered after this point will inherit the
dangling `default_gov`.
2. Existing watchdog devices using the unregistered governor will have
their `wdd->gov` reassigned to the dangling `default_gov
wifi: ath11k: fix potential buffer underflow in ath11k_hal_rx_msdu_list_get()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: fix potential buffer underflow in ath11k_hal_rx_msdu_list_get()
When the first entry in msdu_details has a zero buffer address,
the code accesses msdu_details[i - 1] with i == 0, causing a
buffer underflow.
Fix similarly to ath12k_wifi7_hal_rx_msdu_list_get() by adding
a separate check for i == 0 before the main condition to prevent
the out-of-bounds access.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firewire: net: Fix fragmented datagram reassembly
fwnet_frag_new() keeps a sorted list of received fragments for a partial
datagram. When a new fragment is adjacent to an existing fragment, the
code checks whether the new fragment also closes the gap to the next or
previous list entry.
Those neighbor lookups currently assume that the current fragment always
has a real next or previous fragment. At a list edge, the next or
previous entry is the list head, not a struct fwnet_fragment_info.
The gap checks also compare against the old edge of the current fragment
instead of t
wifi: ath6kl: fix OOB read from firmware num_msg in TX complete handler
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath6kl: fix OOB read from firmware num_msg in TX complete handler
The firmware-controlled num_msg field (u8, 0-255) drives the loop in
ath6kl_wmi_tx_complete_event_rx() without validation against the buffer
length. This allows out-of-bounds reads of up to 1020 bytes past the
WMI event buffer when the firmware sends an inflated num_msg.
Add a check that the buffer is large enough to hold the fixed struct
and the num_msg variable-length entries.
wifi: ath6kl: fix OOB read from firmware IE lengths in connect event
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath6kl: fix OOB read from firmware IE lengths in connect event
The firmware-controlled beacon_ie_len, assoc_req_len, and assoc_resp_len
fields in ath6kl_wmi_connect_event_rx() are not validated against the
buffer length. Their sum (up to 765) can exceed the actual WMI event
data, causing out-of-bounds reads during IE parsing and state corruption
of wmi->is_wmm_enabled.
Add a check that the total IE length fits within the buffer.
wifi: carl9170: bound memcpy length in cmd callback to prevent OOB read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: carl9170: bound memcpy length in cmd callback to prevent OOB read
When the firmware sends a command response with a length mismatch,
carl9170_cmd_callback() logs the mismatch and calls carl9170_restart()
but then falls through to memcpy(ar->readbuf, buffer + 4, len - 4).
Since len comes from the firmware and can exceed ar->readlen, this
copies more data than the readbuf was allocated for.
Bound the memcpy to min(len - 4, ar->readlen) so that the response
is still completed -- avoiding repeated restarts from queued garbage --
while preventing an overread past the resp
wifi: carl9170: fix OOB read from off-by-two in TX status handler
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: carl9170: fix OOB read from off-by-two in TX status handler
The bounds check in carl9170_tx_process_status() uses
`i > ((cmd->hdr.len / 2) + 1)` which is off by two, allowing
2 extra iterations past valid _tx_status entries when the firmware-
controlled hdr.ext exceeds hdr.len/2. Fix by using the correct
comparison `i >= (cmd->hdr.len / 2)`.
wifi: carl9170: fix buffer overflow in rx_stream failover path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: carl9170: fix buffer overflow in rx_stream failover path
The failover continuation in carl9170_rx_stream() copies the full tlen
from the second USB transfer instead of capping at rx_failover_missing
bytes. When both transfers are near maximum size, the total exceeds the
65535-byte failover SKB, triggering skb_over_panic.
Limit the copy size to the missing byte count.
[Fix checkpatch CHECK:PARENTHESIS_ALIGNMENT]
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: validate DFS referral PathConsumed
parse_dfs_referrals() validates that the response contains the fixed
referral entry array and, on for-next, the per-referral string offsets.
However, the response also contains a PathConsumed value that is later
used for DFS path parsing.
If a malformed response provides a PathConsumed value larger than the
search name, later DFS parsing can advance beyond the end of the path.
Validate PathConsumed against the search name length before storing it in
the parsed referral.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: occ: validate poll response sensor blocks
The OCC poll response parser walks a counted list of sensor data blocks.
It used the static backing-array capacity as the parse boundary, but a
transport response makes only data_length bytes current and valid. A
truncated response can therefore make the parser consume a block header or
block extent outside the current response.
Use data_length as the parent boundary, prove the fixed poll header and
each current block header before reading them, and prove the complete block
before advancing. Keep parsed sensor metadata local
net/packet: avoid fanout hook re-registration after unregister
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/packet: avoid fanout hook re-registration after unregister
packet_set_ring() temporarily detaches a socket from packet delivery while
reconfiguring its ring. It records the previous running state, clears
po->num, unregisters the protocol hook when needed, drops po->bind_lock,
and later restores po->num and re-registers the hook from the saved
was_running value.
That unlocked window can race with NETDEV_UNREGISTER. The notifier can
observe the socket as not running, skip __unregister_prot_hook(), and
invalidate the per-socket binding by setting po->ifindex to -1 and cle
bpf: Reject redirect helpers without a bpf_net_context
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Reject redirect helpers without a bpf_net_context
The bpf_redirect*() helpers and skb_do_redirect() obtain the per-task
bpf_redirect_info via bpf_net_ctx_get_ri(), which dereferences the
current->bpf_net_context unconditionally. That context is established
on the paths that run tc BPF such as sch_handle_{ingress,egress}(),
*except* for the case where {cls,act}_bpf was attached to a proper
qdisc. A program running from there reaches the NULL deref in two ways:
* It calls bpf_redirect() directly, which dereferences the context at
the top of the helper:
tc qdisc
rds: drop incoming messages that cross network namespace boundaries
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rds: drop incoming messages that cross network namespace boundaries
rds_find_bound() looks up the destination socket using a global
rhashtable keyed solely on (addr, port, scope_id). Network namespaces
are not part of the key, so a sender in netns A can deliver an incoming
message (inc) to a socket that lives in a different netns B.
When this happens, inc->i_conn points to an rds_connection whose c_net
is netns A, but the receiving rs lives in netns B. Once the child
process that created netns A exits, cleanup_net() calls
rds_loop_exit_net() -> rds_loop_kill_conns() -> r
dpaa2-switch: put MAC endpoint device on disconnect
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dpaa2-switch: put MAC endpoint device on disconnect
fsl_mc_get_endpoint() returns the MAC endpoint device with a reference
taken through device_find_child(). The switch port connect path stores
that device in mac->mc_dev and keeps it for the lifetime of the connected
MAC object.
However, the disconnect path only closes the MAC and frees the dpaa2_mac
object. It does not drop the endpoint device reference stored in
mac->mc_dev, so every successful connect leaks that device reference when
the MAC is later disconnected.
Drop the endpoint device reference before freeing the d

dpaa2-eth: put MAC endpoint device on disconnect
fsl_mc_get_endpoint() returns the MAC endpoint device with a reference
taken through device_find_child(). The Ethernet connect path stores that
device in mac->mc_dev and keeps it for the lifetime of the connected MAC
object.
However, the disconnect path only disconnects and closes the MAC before
freeing the dpaa2_mac object. It does not drop the endpoint device
reference stored in mac->mc_dev, so every successful connect leaks that
device reference when the MAC is later disconnected.

iommu/amd: Wait for completion instead of returning early in iommu_completion_wait()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/amd: Wait for completion instead of returning early in iommu_completion_wait()
need_sync is a per-IOMMU flag shared by all domains and devices behind
that IOMMU. It is set whenever a command is queued with sync == true and
cleared when a completion-wait (CWAIT) command is queued. However, a
cleared need_sync only means that a covering CWAIT has been queued, not
that all previously queued commands have actually completed in hardware.
iommu_completion_wait() read need_sync locklessly and returned early
when it was false. This breaks the "block until all previously queu
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfp: Check resource mutex allocation
nfp_cpp_resource_find() allocates a CPP mutex handle for the matching
resource-table entry and then reports success. nfp_resource_try_acquire()
immediately passes that handle to nfp_cpp_mutex_trylock().
However, nfp_cpp_mutex_alloc() returns NULL on failure. If that happens
for a matching table entry, the resource lookup still returns success and
the following trylock dereferences a NULL mutex pointer while opening the
resource.
nfp_resource_acquire() already treats failure to allocate the table mutex
as -ENOMEM. Do the same for the
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wan: wanxl: Only reset hardware after BAR mapping
wanxl_pci_init_one() stores the freshly allocated card in driver data
before the PLX BAR is mapped. Several early probe failures then unwind
through wanxl_pci_remove_one(), including failure to allocate the coherent
status area or to restore the DMA mask.
wanxl_pci_remove_one() unconditionally calls wanxl_reset(), and
wanxl_reset() dereferences card->plx. On those early failures card->plx
is still NULL, so the error path can dereference a NULL MMIO pointer.
Only issue the hardware reset once the BAR mapping exists. The
