| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/nouveau: Fix runtime PM leak in nouveau_connector_detect()
If nvif_outp_edid_get() fails, nouveau_connector_detect() returns
early without dropping the runtime PM reference taken at the start
of the function, keeping the device powered on until the next
successful detect.
Balance the reference on the error path like the other exit paths
do. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/nouveau: RCU-free the scheduler-containing nouveau_sched
struct nouveau_sched embeds a struct drm_gpu_scheduler (base).
nouveau_sched_destroy() calls nouveau_sched_fini() (which does
drm_sched_fini(&sched->base)) and then frees the object with plain
kfree(sched).
drm_sched_fence_get_timeline_name() returns fence->sched->name, and the
scheduler fence keeps a .release callback so it is not ops-detached on
signalling. A finished fence exported to userspace via drm_syncobj /
sync_file therefore keeps pointing at &sched->base after nouveau_sched_destroy(),
and a later get_timeline_name() -- reachable unprivileged through
SYNC_IOC_FILE_INFO -- dereferences freed memory (KASAN slab-use-after-free
read).
Per the dma-fence lifetime contract the exporter must keep the data backing a
signalled fence alive for an RCU grace period. Free the scheduler-containing
object with kfree_rcu() instead of kfree(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/nouveau: don't bump pin count on failed re-pin in nouveau_bo_pin_locked()
nouveau_bo_pin_locked() checks whether an already pinned BO is in a
memory domain compatible with a new pin request. When the domains are
incompatible, it sets -EBUSY but still calls ttm_bo_pin() before
returning.
Callers treat a failed nouveau_bo_pin() as not having acquired a new pin,
so the extra pin count is never decreased by a matching unpin.
This triggers the warning in ttm_bo_release():
WARN_ON_ONCE(bo->pin_count);

drm/virtio: fix NULL pointer dereference on fence allocation failure
virtio_gpu_fence_alloc() can fail due to memory pressure and return NULL,
but its caller like virtio_gpu_init_submit() never checks it. Later,
virtio_gpu_init_submit() passes the NULL fence to
virtio_gpu_fence_event_create(), which unconditionally dereferences it.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/vaddr: avoid hw-driven pte updates during damon_hugetlb_mkold()
damon_hugetlb_mkold() reads the page table entry into a local variable,
unsets the accessed bit in the variable, and updates the page table entry
with the updated variable value. If hardware updates the same page table
entry in parallel, the hw updates could be lost. For example,
hardware-updated dirty bits might be lost.
Avoid the parallel updates by clearing the page table entry when reading
it together, using huge_ptep_get_and_clear(). If a parallel write to the
memory is made after the clearing, the hw will see the page table entry is
cleared, trigger page fault and wait until it is handled. The page fault
handling will wait for damon_hugetlb_mkold() due to the page table lock.
Because hugetlbfs is an in-memory file system and hugetlb pages cannot be
reclaimed, no critical issue is expected to my best knowledge. But
definitely this is a nasty bug that should be fixed sooner rather than
later.
The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
packet: use ubuf_info completion for TX_RING packets
tpacket_snd sends skbs with frags pointing into its ring slots. Slots
are released when skb->destructor is called.
A call to skb_orphan calls skb->destructor before the skb is freed.
This can cause the slot to be reused while still linked into the skb.
Switch to standard zerocopy completion (ubuf_info) so the slot is only
released once all references to the payload are freed or copied.
Restore skb->destructor to standard sock_wfree.
The ubuf_info completion callback can be called with a NULL skb, but
only from net_zcopy_put and related API, used by zerocopy implementations
that hold their own reference on the uarg, such as MSG_ZEROCOPY. This
uarg is only ever completed from skb_zcopy_clear, so skb is always set.
To prevent userspace from aliasing in-flight state on shared ring
slots, allocate tpacket_uarg per packet, rather than per slot. This
adds a small allocation to the transmit path. Use standard kmalloc to
allow backporting to stable kernels.
The uarg holds an sk_wmem_alloc reference, rather than an sk_refcnt
reference. packet_free_tx_ring waits on sk_wmem_alloc before freeing
the ring pages. Always allocate vec->deferred for tx_ring so page-backed
rings also wait on sk_wmem_alloc when skb_copy_ubufs drops page refs
before calling tpacket_ubuf_complete.
Drop the tx_ring.pg_vec test that tpacket_destruct_skb performed before
accessing the slot. The sk_wmem_alloc reference now guarantees that the
slot is valid. The test is also not sufficient by itself, as it reads
pg_vec without pg_vec_lock, so it can race with packet_set_ring.
As a result a slot is released when its payload is copied, which can
be before transmission (e.g., in skb_orphan_frags_rx). If copied
before skb_tx_timestamp() is called, no slot timestamp is recorded,
similar to when skb_orphan() was called early in the datapath before
this patch.
Revert the now unused previous skb_zcopy_.._nouarg infra.
Depends on commit 992cc9f94ca9 ("net/packet: defer vmalloc TX_RING
free until skbs finish"). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: wacom: fix OOB read in wacom_wac_pen_serial_enforce()
The 'wacom_wac_pen_serial_enforce()' function may calculate and pass an
invalid offset to hid_field_extract(), resulting in memory reads at
incorrect addresses -- possibly beyond the end of the report. If a
field in the HID descriptor lists more usages than its Report Count
actually reserves space for, the function's inner 'j' will walk past
the end of the field:
for (i = 0; i < report->maxfield; i++) {
for (j = 0; j < report->field[i]->maxusage; j++) {
...
value = hid_field_extract(hdev, raw_data + 1,
offset + j * size, size);
A descriptor listing 12288 usages against Report Count 1 has the loop
extract the usage at index 12287 from bit offset 98296 -- about 12 KB
past a 2-byte received report. The value is stored in
wacom_wac->serial[0] and can reach userspace as an MSC_SERIAL event,
making this an information disclosure.
Clamp the loop to field->report_count, the number of value slots the
report holds. Value slots past the last declared usage are still
scanned; they reuse that usage (HID 1.11, 6.2.2.8).
Verified on v6.12.105 with a UHID reproducer: a 2-byte report from
such a descriptor trips KASAN before the patch and not after it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: fix swapped IPv6 IPsec policy masks
IPv6 XFRM policies may use different source and destination prefix
lengths. mlx5e_ipsec_policy_mask() builds the corresponding masks
independently, but setup_fte_addr6() installs each mask in the opposite
address field.
When the prefix lengths differ, this makes the source match use the
destination prefix and the destination match use the source prefix. The
resulting hardware rule can both miss traffic covered by the policy and
match traffic outside it.
Install each mask in its corresponding match field. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: openvswitch: conntrack: avoid modifying shared unconfirmed ct entry
In a case where skb with an unconfirmed ct entry gets cloned, we may
end up committing both but with different sets of extensions.
The series of events:
1. The first clone wants to commit and runs the helpers wiring up
the extension pointer into the expectation list.
2. Then it looses the confirmation keeping the entry unconfirmed.
3. Second clone now wants to commit labels and adds the new extension
for that breaking the pointer in the expectation list causing
UAF on the destruction path later.
While this is possible to trigger, there should be no practical
network pipeline where committing both clones without modifications
into the same zone is needed. So, let's just reset the entry in case
for some reason we got an skb with a shared one during commit. This
doesn't affect any known use cases, but avoids any potential problems
with sharing and modification of the unconfirmed ct entry.
The fixes tag points to the introduction of helpers, since that's the
main UAF trigger for the sharing. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: mdb: restart port group walk after deletion
br_mdb_flush_pgs() keeps a pointer-to-pointer cursor while walking
mp->ports. br_multicast_del_pg() can re-enter the same MDB entry through
br_multicast_sg_del_exclude_ports() and unlink other port groups. If the
cursor points into one of those groups, the next iteration dereferences a
stale cursor and can leave mp->ports pointing at freed memory.
A following RTM_GETMDB exposes the dangling pointer:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in br_mdb_dump
Read of size 8
br_mdb_dump
rtnl_mdb_dump
rtnl_dumpit
netlink_dump
Reset the cursor to mp->ports after every deletion. The deletion removes at
least the selected group, so the restarted walk always makes progress. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ena: fix MMIO read buffer leak on probe failure
ena_device_init() initializes the MMIO read mechanism with
ena_com_mmio_reg_read_request_init(), which allocates a coherent DMA
buffer for MMIO read responses.
The normal removal path releases this buffer through
ena_com_mmio_reg_read_request_destroy(). However, if ena_probe() fails
after ena_device_init() succeeds, the error path destroys the admin
resources and eventually frees ena_dev without destroying the MMIO read
request, leaving the coherent DMA buffer allocated.
Call ena_com_mmio_reg_read_request_destroy() in the probe error path
before releasing the remaining device resources.
This issue was found by manual code inspection. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: fix use-after-free in nfc_get_local_general_bytes
Commit 6709d4b7bc2e ("net: nfc: Fix use-after-free caused by
nfc_llcp_find_local") attempted to fix a use-after-free (UAF) issue by
invoking nfc_llcp_local_put(local) after accessing local->gb. However,
if the reference count drops to zero, local is freed immediately,
leading to a use-after-free when callers access the returned pointer.
Alternative approaches using dynamic allocation (e.g. kmemdup) introduced
memory leaks because callers consistently treat the returned pointer as
borrowed memory.
Fix this properly by refactoring nfc_llcp_general_bytes() and
nfc_get_local_general_bytes() to accept a caller-provided output buffer
(out_gb) and its maximum length (gb_max_len). The general bytes are
safely copied into out_gb before calling nfc_llcp_local_put(local),
ensuring safe lifetime management without ownership transfer complications.
Update all callers across drivers (microread, pn533, pn544, st21nfca,
digital_dep, and nci) to provide their own destination buffers and pass
them to nfc_get_local_general_bytes(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: llcp: drop truncated I/RR/RNR PDUs in nfc_llcp_recv_hdlc()
nfc_llcp_recv_hdlc() reads the sequence byte skb->data[2], via
nfc_llcp_ns()/nfc_llcp_nr(), before any length check. The receive path
only guarantees the two-byte LLCP header -- __nfc_llcp_recv() checks it
with pskb_may_pull() and nfc_llcp_recv_agf() admits two-byte inner PDUs
-- so a two-byte I, RR or RNR PDU reads one byte of uninitialised skb
tailroom. The byte becomes N(R)/N(S); a peer can already set those with
a well-formed PDU, so this is acting on uninitialised memory, not new
peer control.
Guard the read with pskb_may_pull(), as commit 95674f506c63 ("nfc: llcp:
reject PDUs shorter than the LLCP header") did for the two-byte header,
so the sequence byte is present and linear before it is read. RR and RNR
PDUs are LLCP_HEADER_SIZE + LLCP_SEQUENCE_SIZE bytes and an I PDU is
longer, so no valid frame is rejected; a truncated PDU is malformed, so
return without a DM reply. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: port100: reject frames whose declared length exceeds the received data
port100_recv_response() passes the URB transfer buffer to
port100_rx_frame_is_valid(), which checksums le16_to_cpu(frame->datalen)
bytes of frame->data. datalen is a 16-bit field supplied by the device
and is never checked against the number of bytes actually received
(urb->actual_length), so a device reporting a datalen larger than the
received frame makes port100_data_checksum() read out of bounds past the
transfer buffer.
Reject a response whose declared frame size does not fit the received
length before validating it.
Found by 0sec (https://0sec.ai) using automated source analysis; the
missing bound is evident from source. Compile-tested. |

nfc: trf7970a: power down on startup RX gain failure
trf7970a_startup() powers up the device before applying the optional RX
gain reduction. If the register read or write fails, it returns without
undoing that power-up. Probe's unwind only drops the separate regulator
references acquired by probe, leaving the additional VIN enable from
startup unbalanced. The system resume caller also has no power-down on
this error.
Call trf7970a_power_down() before returning the RX gain error to deassert
the enable GPIOs, release the startup VIN reference and restore the
powered-off state. Runtime PM has not been enabled yet, so the full
shutdown helper is not appropriate here. Preserve the original SPI error.
This issue was identified during our ongoing static-analysis research while
reviewing kernel code. |

s390/cio: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ccw_device_get_util_str()
The channel path registry entry associated with a CHPID may be removed
while the subchannel's PMCW still references that CHPID. In this case,
chpid_to_chp() can return NULL, leading to a NULL pointer dereference.
Add the missing NULL check before dereferencing the returned pointer. |

KVM: SEV: Do cache maintenance on the source VM during intra-host migration
Manually perform cache maintenance on the source VM during intra-host
migration to ensure no stale data is left in CPU caches after the VM is
destroyed. Because the source VM is "converted" to a non-SEV VM, KVM's
memory reclaim flows won't trigger cache maintenance, e.g. when all guest
memory is reclaimed in response to detaching from the mmu_notifier.
Note, relying on the destination VM to do cache maintenance isn't an option
as KVM doesn't require identical guest memory configurations, i.e. the
source VM may have access to memory that the destination VM does not.
Enforcing equivalent memory configurations is infeasible, as it would
require a *deep* comparison of memslots, e.g. to verify that not only are
the memslot identical, but what the memslots point at is also identical. |

KVM: arm64: Don't WARN on an unknown VM ioctl in protected mode
kvm_pkvm_ioctl_allowed() WARNs when kvm_get_cap_for_kvm_ioctl() doesn't
find the ioctl number in vm_ioctl_caps[], and kvm_arch_vm_ioctl() calls
it for every number the generic code doesn't handle, so
ioctl(vm_fd, 0xdeadbeef) from userspace taints a pKVM host and panics it
under panic_on_warn. The lookup is fed userspace input: return false,
and userspace gets the -EINVAL kvm_arch_vm_ioctl() returns for that
number on a host without pKVM. |

KVM: arm64: Fix spurious warning for benign stage 2 teardown race
kvmtool was used to establish an L1 guest with 8 CPUs and 8 GiB of RAM, an
L2 guest with 4 CPUs and 4 GiB of RAM and an L3 guest with 2 CPUs and 2 GiB
of RAM, all of which was then exited.
Under memory pressure in the L0 host warnings were observed due to
migration triggered by compaction:
WARNING: arch/arm64/kvm/mmu.c:336 at __unmap_stage2_range+0x64/0x80,
CPU#5: kcompactd0/66
Which was, in turn, triggered by an MMU notifier for the host invalidation:
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
-> ... -> kvm_mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start()
-> kvm_mmu_unmap_gfn_range()
-> kvm_unmap_gfn_range()
-> kvm_nested_s2_unmap()
-> kvm_stage2_unmap_range()
-> __unmap_stage2_range()
-> stage2_apply_range()
<- -EINVAL, triggering a WARN_ON()
Racing with L0's teardown of stage 2 page tables:
exit_mm()
-> mmput()
-> __mmput()
-> exit_mmap()
-> mmu_notifier_release()
-> ... -> kvm_mmu_notifier_release()
-> kvm_flush_shadow_all()
-> kvm_arch_flush_shadow_all()
-> kvm_free_stage2_pgd()
-> [ acquire kvm->mmu_lock for write ]
-> mmu->pgt = NULL [ among other tasks ]
-> [ release kvm->mmu_lock for write ]
It turns out there is a benign race resulting in a spurious warning:
Thread A - notify: migration | Thread B - notify: release
-------------------------------|---------------------------------
< kvm->mmu_lock held > |
stage2_apply_range() |
get mmu->pgt, check !NULL |
... | kvm_arch_flush_shadow_all()
cond_resched_rwlock_write(); | < contend, sleep kvm->mmu_lock >
< drop kvm->mmu_lock > | < acquire kvm->mmu_lock>
| ...
| kvm_free_stage2_pgd()
| mmu->pgt = NULL
| < invalidate MMU >
| ...
| < release kvm->mmu_lock >
[ scheduled ] |
stage2_apply_range() |
< loop to next > |
get, mmu->pgt, check !NULL |
is NULL, return -EINVAL |
__unmap_stage2_range() |
WARN_ON(-EINVAL) <--- entirely spurious - the race was handled
correctly.
Fix the spurious warning by updating stage2_apply_range() to no longer
treat concurrent PGT teardown on lock release as an error - whether the
walker is tearing down page tables or doing something else this is a
legitimate reason to abort the operation without error.
This keeps the warning in place for all other circumstances.
In practice only __unmap_stage2_range() actually does anything with the
error so this only impacts that. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched_ext: Derive SCX_RQ_IN_WAKEUP from the core enqueue flags
schedule_deferred_locked() skips scheduling a deferred action while
SCX_RQ_IN_WAKEUP is set and relies on the task_woken_scx() call that follows
a wakeup enqueue to run it. enqueue_task_scx() sets the flag from the merged
enqueue flags, which include the flags stashed for a remote activation.
move_remote_task_to_local_dsq() thus sets SCX_RQ_IN_WAKEUP on the
destination rq when the moved task was woken up, although no
task_woken_scx() follows that activation.
An IMMED insert into a busy destination requests a local reenqueue during
that enqueue. The request gets linked but not scheduled and stays pending
until an unrelated wakeup or preemption on that CPU runs the deferred
actions. The IMMED task sits behind the running task in the meantime. If
nothing runs them before the scheduler is disabled, the request outlives the
scheduler and points into its freed per-cpu area, which the next scheduler
dereferences from run_deferred().
Test the core enqueue flags for the wakeup bit. Only the core's wakeup path
is followed by task_woken_scx(). |
