In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix maximum allowed access checks
The DACL permission check looks for an ACE matching the current user and
falls back to the Everyone ACE. It does not consider an Authenticated
Users ACE, even though an authenticated session is a member of that
well-known group.
As a result, opening a file whose access is granted through S-1-5-11 can
incorrectly fail with STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED. Treat an Authenticated Users
ACE as a fallback entry alongside Everyone.
The maximal access calculation also combines access masks from every ACE,
regardless of whether its SID applies to the
greybus: audio: bound the topology section sizes against the fetched size
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
greybus: audio: bound the topology section sizes against the fetched size
gb_audio_gb_get_topology() fetches a topology blob of a module-supplied
size, and gbaudio_tplg_parse_data() then walks it by adding the
module-supplied size_dais, size_controls and size_widgets fields to
form the control, widget and route section offsets. Those le32 sizes
are never checked against the fetched blob, so a module reporting a
small topology size but large section sizes makes the offsets point
past the allocation, and parsing reads out of bounds.
Reject a topology whose section sizes do n
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/x86/intel/pt: Fix stop/start with no update
If pt_event_stop() is called without PERF_EF_UPDATE flag, then
perf_aux_output_end() is not called. A subsequent call to pt_event_start()
will call perf_aux_output_begin() again which violates the rule against
nesting and triggers a WARNING in perf_aux_output_begin().
Originally, pt_event_stop() was never called without PERF_EF_UPDATE,
because the only code paths to do so are from event overflow, and Intel PT
does not do that.

ext4: skip extra isize expansion during mount to prevent deadlock
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: skip extra isize expansion during mount to prevent deadlock
ext4_try_to_expand_extra_isize() is called from __ext4_mark_inode_dirty()
while holding an active jbd2 handle. During mount (!SB_ACTIVE), the
expand path may move xattrs to external blocks and release ea_inodes via
iput(). When !SB_ACTIVE, iput() calls write_inode_now() which acquires
s_writepages_rwsem, creating a circular lock dependency:
s_writepages_rwsem --> jbd2_handle --> xattr_sem --> s_writepages_rwsem
This can be triggered via:
ext4_process_orphan() -> ext4_truncate() -> ext4_mark_inode_dir
locking/lockdep: Fix NULL pointer dereference in __lock_set_class()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
locking/lockdep: Fix NULL pointer dereference in __lock_set_class()
register_lock_class() can return NULL when the lock class pool is
exhausted, graph_lock() fails, or key validation fails. However,
__lock_set_class() uses the return value directly in pointer arithmetic
without a NULL check:
class = register_lock_class(lock, subclass, 0);
hlock->class_idx = class - lock_classes;
If class is NULL, this computes a wild offset that corrupts
hlock->class_idx. The subsequent reacquire_held_locks() call will
invoke hlock_class() with this corrupted index, leading to a NULL
powerpc/xive: propagate IPI init errors to prevent use-after-free
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/xive: propagate IPI init errors to prevent use-after-free
When xive_init_ipis() fails (e.g. irq_domain_alloc_irqs() fails),
the error path frees the global xive_ipis array. However,
xive_smp_probe() previously ignored this failure and proceeded to
call xive_setup_cpu_ipi(), which dereferences the already-freed
xive_ipis pointer -- a use-after-free.
Now that xive_smp_probe() returns int (previous patch), propagate
the error from xive_init_ipis() and xive_setup_cpu_ipi() through
xive_smp_probe(). Check the return value in both pnv_smp_probe()
and pSeries_smp_probe(
arm64: hibernate: mask DAIF before restoring hibernated kernel
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: hibernate: mask DAIF before restoring hibernated kernel
The arm64 hibernate code manages the exception masking in an unsound
way, leading to potential crashes and/or warnings during resume.
When a hibernation image is saved in `swsusp_arch_suspend()`, all DAIF
exceptions are masked (by virtue of `local_daif_save()`), and the
suspended image is saved assuming that all DAIF exceptions will remain
masked when the image is restored.
When a hibernation image is resumed by `swsusp_arch_resume()`, only
interrupts are masked (by virtue of `local_irq_disable()` in
`resume_t

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: bus: Introduce acpi_bus_get_primary_device()
The function used for obtaining the first "physical" device for which
the given ACPI one is the ACPI companion, acpi_get_first_physical_node(),
may return a stale device pointer (mostly in theory) because
acpi_unbind_one() may run as a whole after dropping the ACPI device's
physical_node_lock in acpi_get_first_physical_node() and before it
returns. The last reference to the "physical" device may be dropped
then before the pointer to it is returned to the caller.

memcg: bypass the reclaim and oom killer for dying tasks once oom_reaper is done
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memcg: bypass the reclaim and oom killer for dying tasks once oom_reaper is done
At Meta, we are seeing instances where an OOM killed job is stuck in the
exit path for several hours. In one particular case, the job was stuck
for more than 8 hours and I had to manually remove the memory.max limits
to allow the process to exit.
The job was a single process job and had ~55 GiB memory.max and zswap
enabled. It had almost 0 anon in memory and ~111 GiB in zswap compressed
to ~51 GiB zswap pool (i.e. almost all of memory.current was zswap).
Nothing was left on the LRUs to rec
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memcg: make the v1 soft limit knob inert
The v1 soft limit has been deprecated since v6.12 and nobody has reported
depending on it. Start the removal by decoupling the interface from the
implementation: keep memory.soft_limit_in_bytes, but ignore writes to it
and always report the maximum value on read similar to what
memory.kmem.limit_in_bytes already does.
Writes are still parsed, so malformed input keeps returning -EINVAL. The
knob now also behaves the same everywhere: it used to return -EOPNOTSUPP
on PREEMPT_RT, where soft limit reclaim has always been disabled.

arm64: mm: Fix the lockless page-table walk in show_pte()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: mm: Fix the lockless page-table walk in show_pte()
show_pte() walks page tables locklessly and can run with interrupts
enabled. A concurrent teardown can free a table page while it is being
walked. It can also clear a parent entry after show_pte() checked it; the
regular pXd_offset() helpers then reread the cleared entry and can derive a
bogus lower-level pointer and fault again.
Use the lockless offset helpers with the saved parent entries, as
gup_fast() does, and pass the saved PMD to pte_offset_map().
For task page tables, arm64 selects MMU_GATHER_RCU_TABLE_FREE
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
LoongArch: Add DIRECT_MAP_PHYSMEM_END definition
get_free_mem_region() and mhp_get_pluggable_range() bound their search
to DIRECT_MAP_PHYSMEM_END. LoongArch does not define it, so the fallback
in include/linux/mm.h applies: under CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP it is
(1ULL << MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS) - 1, a compile-time constant that does not
adapt to the CPU's physical address space bits (cpu_pabits, probed from
CPUCFG1).
The vmemmap window only covers physical space below 2^(cpu_pabits+1)
(i.e. VMEMMAP_SIZE), so on CPUs with fewer physical address bits than
MAX_PHYSMEM_BITS the fallba

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lockd: fix swapped arguments in nlmsvc_match_ip()
When releasing locks by server IP address via /proc/fs/nfsd/unlock_ip,
nlmsvc_unlock_all_by_ip() calls nlm_traverse_files() with the server
sockaddr as the opaque @data argument:
nlm_traverse_files(server_addr, nlmsvc_match_ip, NULL);
The match callback is later invoked from nlm_traverse_locks() as:
match(lockhost, host);
where the first argument is the nlm_host that owns the lock, and the
second argument is the @data that was originally passed down (here the
server sockaddr). This is the convention every other match
clocksource/drivers/timer-sun4i: Advertise a real minimum delta
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clocksource/drivers/timer-sun4i: Advertise a real minimum delta
sun4i_clkevt_next_event() compensates for the timer stop/start
synchronization delay by programming evt - TIMER_SYNC_TICKS into the
hardware interval register. The clockevent device currently advertises
TIMER_SYNC_TICKS as min_delta_ticks, so the clockevents core is allowed
to call set_next_event() with evt == TIMER_SYNC_TICKS.
That programs a zero-tick interval. With oneshot/highres/nohz timer
operation this can leave the next event stuck, which was observed as a
boot hang on Allwinner D1 after the clockevent
usb: gadget: f_tcm: fix deadlock in usbg_make_tpg()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_tcm: fix deadlock in usbg_make_tpg()
usbg_make_tpg() held dep_lock while calling
configfs_depend_item_unlocked(), which acquires the configfs root
inode lock when operating across subsystems. This creates a circular
lock dependency with configfs_rmdir():
dep_lock -> configfs root inode lock -> su_mutex -> dep_lock
In usbg_make_tpg(), dep_lock only serialized the read of opts->ready,
which is a monotonic flag that transitions from false to true exactly
once (in tcm_set_name()) and never reverts. Remove dep_lock from
usbg_make_tpg() entirely and use READ_ON
of: fix out-of-bounds read in of_alias_scan() stem parser
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
of: fix out-of-bounds read in of_alias_scan() stem parser
The stem parser tests isdigit(*(end - 1)) before checking end > start
and so reads one byte before the property name when the name is empty
or all digits. Check the bound first.
smb: client: harden DFS cache against invalid target hints
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: harden DFS cache against invalid target hints
Currently, get_tgt_name() returns ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) when ce->tgthint is
NULL, and dfs_cache_noreq_update_tgthint() assumes ce->tgthint is always
valid.
In preparation for clearing ce->tgthint in free_tgts(), harden callers
of get_tgt_name() against ERR_PTR results and harden
dfs_cache_noreq_update_tgthint() against NULL pointer dereferences.
