USB: serial: io_edgeport: cap received transmit credits
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: io_edgeport: cap received transmit credits
The interrupt-status packet reports transmit credits returned by the
device. edge_interrupt_callback() adds the 16-bit value to txCredits
without checking maxTxCredits.
edge_write() uses txCredits minus the software FIFO count as the amount
of data that fits. Since the FIFO is allocated with maxTxCredits bytes,
txCredits exceeding maxTxCredits can cause OOB write in ring buffer.
Cap accumulated credits at maxTxCredits. Conforming devices should never
hit the cap.
wifi: ath9k: hif_usb: don't dereference hif_dev after re-arming firmware request
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: hif_usb: don't dereference hif_dev after re-arming firmware request
ath9k_hif_request_firmware() re-arms an asynchronous firmware load via
request_firmware_nowait(), passing hif_dev as the completion context, and
then still dereferences hif_dev:
dev_info(&hif_dev->udev->dev, "ath9k_htc: Firmware %s requested\n",
hif_dev->fw_name);
The re-armed callback ath9k_hif_usb_firmware_cb() runs on the "events"
workqueue and, when the firmware is missing, walks the retry chain into
ath9k_hif_usb_firmware_fail() -> complete_all(&hif_dev->fw_done). That

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
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.
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
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
wifi: mwifiex: bound uAP association event IEs to the event buffer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mwifiex: bound uAP association event IEs to the event buffer
mwifiex_process_uap_event() handles EVENT_UAP_STA_ASSOC by exposing the
(re)association request IEs that the firmware copies into the event:
sinfo->assoc_req_ies = &event->data[len];
len = (u8 *)sinfo->assoc_req_ies - (u8 *)&event->frame_control;
sinfo->assoc_req_ies_len = le16_to_cpu(event->len) - (u16)len;
event->len is supplied by the device firmware and is never validated,
and the subtraction is unchecked. assoc_req_ies points into

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/amd: Bound the early ACPI HID map
The ivrs_acpihid command-line parser appends entries to a fixed

parsers, it does not reject a fifth entry before incrementing the map size.
Check the capacity at the common found label before parsing the HID and
UID or writing the entry.

tipc_udp_rcast_add() and cleanup_bearer() both update ub->rcast.list with
list_add_rcu() / list_del_rcu(), but nothing serializes them. The add runs
from the encap receive softirq (via tipc_udp_rcast_disc()) without

sctp: fix auth_chunk_list capacity check in sctp_auth_ep_add_chunkid
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: fix auth_chunk_list capacity check in sctp_auth_ep_add_chunkid
sctp_auth_ep_add_chunkid() uses SCTP_NUM_CHUNK_TYPES (20) as the
capacity limit for ep->auth_chunk_list, allowing it to hold up to
20 chunk entries (param_hdr.length up to 24). However, the copy
destination asoc->c.auth_chunks in struct sctp_cookie is only
SCTP_AUTH_MAX_CHUNKS (16) entries (20 bytes). When more than 16
chunks are added, sctp_association_init() memcpy overflows the
destination by up to 4 bytes.
Fix by using SCTP_AUTH_MAX_CHUNKS as the capacity limit, matching
the destination capacity.
sctp: validate stream count in sctp_process_strreset_inreq()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: validate stream count in sctp_process_strreset_inreq()
When processing a RESET_IN_REQUEST from a peer,
sctp_process_strreset_inreq() derives the stream count from the
parameter length but does not check whether the resulting
RESET_OUT_REQUEST would exceed SCTP_MAX_CHUNK_LEN.
The OUT request header (sctp_strreset_outreq, 16 bytes) is 8 bytes
larger than the IN request header (sctp_strreset_inreq, 8 bytes).
Generally, the IP payload is bounded to 65535 bytes, so the stream
list cannot be large enough to trigger the overflow. However, on
interfaces with MTU > 65535 (e.g

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: fix infinite loop in __tipc_nl_compat_dumpit
cmd->dumpit callback can return a negative errno, causing an infinite
loop due to the while(len) condition. As the loop never terminates,
genl_mutex is never released, and other tasks waiting on it starve in D
state.
Check dumpit's return value, propagate it and jump to err_out on error.
