| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommufd: Set upper bounds on cache invalidation entry_num and entry_len
iommufd_hwpt_invalidate() takes a user-controlled entry_num and entry_len,
each bounded only by U32_MAX. An entry_len beyond the kernel's struct size
makes the copy helper verify the extra bytes are zero, scanning that excess
in one uninterruptible pass; a multi-gigabyte value over zeroed user memory
trips the soft-lockup watchdog.
A large entry_num is the other half, driving the backend invalidation loop
with no reschedule. The VT-d nested handler, for one, copies each entry and
flushes caches per iteration, pinning the CPU on a non-preemptible kernel.
Cap both in the ioctl. entry_len is held under PAGE_SIZE, above any request
struct, and entry_num under 1 << 19, the order of a hardware invalidation
queue and well beyond any real batch, bounding the per-call loop length. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: don't wrap around quota ids in dqiterate
LOLLM noticed that q_id is an unsigned 32-bit variable. If it happens
to be set to XFS_DQ_ID_MAX due to a filesystem that actually has a dquot
for ID_MAX, then this addition will truncate to zero and the iteration
starts over. Fix this by casting to u64. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers/base/memory: set mem->altmap after successful device registration
If __add_memory_block() fails at xa_store() (under memory pressure for
example), device_unregister() is called, which eventually triggers
memory_block_release() with mem->altmap still set, causing a
WARN_ON(mem->altmap). This was triggered by modifying virtio-mem driver.
Fix this by delaying the assignment of mem->altmap until after
__add_memory_block() has succeeded. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (lm90) Add lock protection to lm90_alert
Sashiko reports:
lm90_alert() executes in the smbus alert context and calls
lm90_update_confreg() to disable the hardware alert line, without
acquiring hwmon_lock.
Concurrently, sysfs write operations (such as lm90_write_convrate) hold
the hwmon_lock, temporarily modify data->config, and then restore it.
If an alert interrupt occurs concurrently with a sysfs write, the sysfs
path will overwrite the alert handler's modifications to data->config
and the hardware register.
This unintentionally re-enables the hardware alert line while the alarm is
still active, causing an interrupt storm.
Add the missing lock to lm90_alert() to solve the problem. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: i801: fix hardware state machine corruption in error path
A severe livelock and subsequent Hung Task panic were observed in the
i2c-i801 driver during concurrent Fuzzing. The crash is caused by an
unconditional hardware register cleanup in the error handling path of
i801_access().
When i801_check_pre() fails (e.g., returning -EBUSY because the SMBus
controller is actively used by BIOS/ACPI), the kernel does not actually
acquire the hardware ownership. However, the code jumps to the 'out'
label and executes:
iowrite8(SMBHSTSTS_INUSE_STS | STATUS_FLAGS, SMBHSTSTS(priv));
This forcefully clears the INUSE_STS lock and resets the hardware status
flags without owning the controller. Doing so interrupts ongoing BIOS/ACPI
transactions and totally corrupts the SMBus hardware state machine.
Consequently, all subsequent i801_access() calls fail at the pre-check
stage, triggering an endless stream of "SMBus is busy, can't use it!"
error logs. Over a slow serial console, this printk flood monopolizes
the CPU (Console Livelock), starving other processes trying to acquire
the mmap_lock down_read semaphore, ultimately triggering the hung task
watchdog.
Fix this by moving the 'out' label below the hardware register cleanup.
If i801_check_pre() fails, we safely bypass the iowrite8() and only
release the software locks (pm_runtime and mutex), strictly adhering to
the rule of not releasing resources that were never acquired. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sysfs: don't remove existing directory on update failure
When sysfs_update_group() is called for a named group and create_files()
fails (e.g. -ENOMEM), internal_create_group() calls kernfs_remove(kn) on
the group directory. In the update path, kn was obtained via
kernfs_find_and_get() and refers to a directory that already existed
before this call. Removing it silently destroys a sysfs group that the
caller did not create.
Only remove the directory if we created it ourselves. On update failure
the directory remains as it is left empty by remove_files() inside
create_files(), but can be repopulated by a retry. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs-schemes: call missing mem_cgroup_iter_break()
damon_sysfs_memcg_path_to_id() breaks mem_cgroup_iter() loop without
calling mem_cgroup_iter_break(). This leaks the cgroup reference. Fix
the issue by calling mem_cgroup_iter_break() before the break.
The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: advance loop vars in cfg80211_merge_profile()
cfg80211_merge_profile() reassembles a Multi-BSSID non-transmitted BSS
profile that has been split across multiple consecutive MBSSID elements.
Its while-loop calls
cfg80211_get_profile_continuation(ie, ielen, mbssid_elem, sub_elem)
but never advances mbssid_elem or sub_elem inside the body. Each
iteration therefore searches for a continuation that follows the same
fixed pair; the helper returns the same next_mbssid; and the same
next_sub bytes are memcpy()'d into merged_ie at a growing offset until
the buffer fills.
Advance both mbssid_elem and sub_elem to the just-consumed continuation
so the next call to cfg80211_get_profile_continuation() searches for a
further continuation beyond it (or returns NULL when none exists).
A specially-crafted malicious beacon can take advantage of this bug
to cause the kernel to spend an excessive amount of time in
cfg80211_merge_profile (up to as much as 2ms per beacon received),
which could theoretically be abused in some way. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Do not call map->ops->elt_free() if elt_alloc() fails
In paths where tracing_map_elt_alloc() failed to allocate objects,
the map->ops->elt_alloc() call was never successful. In this case,
map->ops->elt_free() should not be called. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/memory: fix spurious warning when unmapping device-private/exclusive pages
Device private and exclusive entries are only supported for anonymous
folios. This condition is tested in __migrate_device_pages() and
make_device_exclusive() using folio_test_anon(). However the unmap path
tests this assumption using vma_is_anonymous().
This is wrong because whilst anonymous VMAs can only contain folios where
folio_test_anon() is true the opposite relation does not hold. A folio
for which folio_test_anon() is true does not imply vma_is_anonymous() is
true. Such a condition can occur if for example a folio is part of a
private filebacked mapping.
In this case vma_is_anonymous() is false as the mapping is filebacked, but
folio_test_anon() may be true, thus permitting devices to migrate the
folio to device private memory. This can lead to the following spurious
warnings during process teardown:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: ecred_reconfigure: send packed pdu, not stack pointer
Commit 1c08108f3014 ("Bluetooth: L2CAP: Avoid -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end
warnings") converted the on-stack request PDU in l2cap_ecred_reconfigure()
from an explicit packed struct to DEFINE_RAW_FLEX(), but did not adjust the
size and source-pointer arguments to l2cap_send_cmd():
- struct {
- struct l2cap_ecred_reconf_req req;
- __le16 scid;
- } pdu;
+ DEFINE_RAW_FLEX(struct l2cap_ecred_reconf_req, pdu, scid, 1);
...
l2cap_send_cmd(conn, chan->ident, L2CAP_ECRED_RECONF_REQ,
sizeof(pdu), &pdu);
After the conversion, DEFINE_RAW_FLEX() expands to declare an anonymous
union pdu_u plus a local pointer "pdu" pointing at it. Therefore:
- sizeof(pdu) is now sizeof(struct l2cap_ecred_reconf_req *) = 8 on
64-bit (4 on 32-bit), not the 6 bytes of (mtu, mps, scid[1]).
- &pdu is the address of the local pointer's stack storage, not the
address of the request payload.
l2cap_send_cmd() forwards (data, count) to l2cap_build_cmd(), which calls
skb_put_data(skb, data, count). The L2CAP_ECRED_RECONFIGURE_REQ packet
body therefore contains 8 bytes copied from the kernel stack starting at
&pdu -- the 8 bytes overlap the pdu pointer's value, leaking a kernel
stack address to the paired Bluetooth peer. The intended (mtu, mps, scid)
fields are not transmitted at all, so the peer rejects the request as
malformed and the L2CAP_ECRED_RECONFIGURE feature itself has been broken
for the local-side initiator since the introducing commit landed.
The sibling site l2cap_ecred_conn_req() in the same commit was converted
correctly (sizeof(*pdu) + len, pdu); only this site was missed.
Restore the original semantics: pass the full flex-struct size via
struct_size(pdu, scid, 1) and the pdu pointer (the struct address) as
the source.
Validated on a stock 7.0-based host kernel via the real call path:
setsockopt(SOL_BLUETOOTH, BT_RCVMTU, ...) on a BT_CONNECTED
L2CAP_MODE_EXT_FLOWCTL socket emits an L2CAP_ECRED_RECONFIGURE_REQ
whose body is 8 bytes (the on-stack pdu local's value) rather than
the expected 6. Three captures from fresh socket / fresh hciemu peer
on the same host -- low bytes vary per call, high 0xffff confirms a
kernel virtual address (KASLR-randomised stack slot, not a fixed
string):
RECONF_REQ body (ident=0x02 len=8): 42 fb 54 af 0e ca ff ff
RECONF_REQ body (ident=0x02 len=8): 52 3d 2e af 0e ca ff ff
RECONF_REQ body (ident=0x02 len=8): b2 fc 5b af 0e ca ff ff
After this patch the body is 6 bytes carrying the expected
little-endian (mtu, mps, scid). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: vgic: Free private_irqs when init fails after allocation
Companion to commit 250f25367b58 ("KVM: arm64: Tear down vGIC on
failed vCPU creation"), which added the missing kvm_vgic_vcpu_destroy()
call to the kvm_share_hyp() failure path in kvm_arch_vcpu_create(). The
kvm_vgic_vcpu_init() failure path immediately above it has the same
shape and still needs the same cleanup.
Call kvm_vgic_vcpu_destroy() when kvm_vgic_vcpu_init() fails so private
IRQs allocated before a redistributor iodev registration failure are
released before the failed vCPU is freed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: reset write verifier on deferred writeback errors
nfsd_vfs_write() and nfsd_commit() both call filemap_check_wb_err() to
detect deferred writeback errors, but neither rotates the server's write
verifier (nn->writeverf) when this check fails. Every other
durable-storage-failure path in these functions calls
commit_reset_write_verifier() before returning an error.
The missing rotation means clients holding UNSTABLE write data under the
current verifier will COMMIT, receive the unchanged verifier back, and
conclude their data is durable — silently dropping data that failed
writeback. This violates the UNSTABLE+COMMIT durability contract
(RFC 1813 §3.3.7, RFC 8881 §18.32).
Add commit_reset_write_verifier() calls at both filemap_check_wb_err()
error sites, matching the pattern used by adjacent error paths in the
same functions. The helper already filters -EAGAIN and -ESTALE
internally, so the calls are unconditionally safe. |

Kernel lacks dirty tracking support on nested domain attached to PASID,
fails the attachment early if nesting parent domain is dirty tracking
configured, otherwise dirty pages would be lost. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hsr: Remove WARN_ONCE() in hsr_addr_is_self().
syzbot reported the warning [0] in hsr_addr_is_self(),
whose assumption is simply wrong.
hsr->self_node is cleared in hsr_del_self_node(), which
is called from hsr_dellink().
Since dev->rtnl_link_ops->dellink() is called before
unregister_netdevice_many(), there is a window when
user can find the device but without hsr->self_node.
Let's remove WARN_ONCE() in hsr_addr_is_self().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack: destroy stale expectfn expectations on unregister
NAT helpers such as nf_nat_h323 store a raw pointer to module text in
exp->expectfn (e.g. ip_nat_q931_expect). nf_ct_helper_expectfn_unregister()
only unlinks the callback descriptor and never walks the expectation table,
so an expectation pending at module removal survives with a dangling
exp->expectfn into freed module text.
When the expected connection arrives, init_conntrack() invokes
exp->expectfn(), now a stale pointer into the unloaded module. Reproduced
on a KASAN build by loading the H.323 helpers, creating a Q.931
expectation, unloading nf_nat_h323, then connecting to the expected port:

Reaching the dangling state requires CAP_SYS_MODULE in the initial user
namespace to remove a NAT helper that still has live expectations, so this
is a robustness fix; leaving an expectation pointing at freed text is wrong
regardless.
Add nf_ct_helper_expectfn_destroy(), which walks the expectation table and
drops every expectation whose ->expectfn matches the descriptor being torn
down. Call it from each NAT helper's exit path after the existing RCU grace
period, so no expectation outlives the code it points at and no extra
synchronize_rcu() is introduced. With the fix, the same reproducer runs to
completion without the Oops. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
debugobjects: Do not fill_pool() if pi_blocked_on
On RT enabled kernels, fill_pool() ends up calling rtlock_lock(), which
asserts if current::pi_blocked_on is set, because a task can obviously only
block on one lock as otherwise the priority inheritenace chain gets
corrupted.
Prevent this by expanding the conditional to take current::pi_blocked_on
into account. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/napi: cap busy_poll_to 10 msec
Currently there's no cap on the maximum amount of time that napi is
allowed to poll if no events are found, which can lead to kernel
complaints on a task being stuck as there's no conditional rescheduling
done within that loop.
Just cap it to 10 msec in total, that's already way above any kind of
sane value that will reap any benefits, yet low enough that it's
nowhere near being able to trigger preemption complaints. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7921: Place upper limit on station AID
Any station configured with an AID over 20 causes a firmware crash.
This situation occurred in our testing using an AP interface on 7922
hardware, with a modified hostapd, sourced from Mediatek's OpenWRT
feeds.
In stock hostapd, station AIDs begin counting at 1, and this
configuration is prevented with an upper limit on associated stations.
However, the modified hostapd began allocation at 65, which caused the
firmware to crash. This fix does not allow these AIDs to work, but will
prevent the firmware crash.
This crash was only seen on IFTYPE_AP interfaces, and the fix does not
appear to have an effect on IFTYPE_STATION behavior. |
