CVSS v3.1 |
| libexpat before 2.8.4 lacks handler call depth tracking with custom encoding callbacks. Thus, a use-after-free can occur. NOTE: this is similar to CVE-2026-50219, CVE-2026-56131 and CVE-2026-56412. |
| Use-after-free in the Layout: Text and Fonts component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 154, Firefox ESR 115.39, Firefox ESR 140.14, Firefox ESR 153.1, Thunderbird 154, Thunderbird 140.14, and Thunderbird 153.1. |

mm/huge_memory: unlock i_mmap_rwsem before releasing after-split folios
__folio_split() keeps dereferencing the mapping after the split:
shmem_uncharge(mapping->host) and remap_page() while the folios are still
frozen/locked, and i_mmap_unlock_read(mapping) at the very end, after the
after-split folios have been unlocked and freed.
Nothing holds an inode reference across that. The split relies on @folio
-- which the beyond-EOF drop loop never removes, as it starts at
folio_next(folio) -- staying locked and in the page cache to hold off
eviction. But the unlock loop unlocks @folio before i_mmap_unlock_read()
runs. If the caller's @lock_at is a tail beyond EOF, as memory_failure()
passes when splitting a poisoned tail of a shmem THP that reaches past
i_size during truncation, it too is gone from the page cache; so once
@folio is unlocked no locked, in-cache folio pins the inode, and a
concurrent final iput() can evict and RCU-free it before
i_mmap_unlock_read() touches i_mmap_rwsem:

Do every mapping dereference while @folio still pins the inode: drop
i_mmap_rwsem right after remap_page(), before the loop that unlocks and
frees the after-split folios, and clear @mapping so the exit path does not
unlock it again. shmem_uncharge() and remap_page() already run before
that point, so after this nothing past the unlock loop touches the inode
or the mapping.
This is now a rule the split depends on, alongside keeping @folio frozen
until the page cache is updated: no inode or mapping dereference once the
after-split folios start being unlocked. |
| Race condition, use-after-free in the Graphics component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 154, Firefox ESR 115.39, Firefox ESR 140.14, Firefox ESR 153.1, Thunderbird 154, Thunderbird 140.14, and Thunderbird 153.1. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: bcm: add missing device refcount for CAN filter removal
sashiko-bot remarked a problem with a concurrent device unregistration
in isotp.c which also is present in the bcm.c code. A former fix for raw.c
commit c275a176e4b6 ("can: raw: add missing refcount for memory leak fix")
introduced a netdevice_tracker which solves the issue for bcm.c too.
bcm_release(), bcm_delete_rx_op() and bcm_notifier() relied on
dev_get_by_index(ifindex) to re-find the device for an rx_op before
unregistering its filter. If a concurrent NETDEV_UNREGISTER has already
unlisted the device from the ifindex table, that lookup fails and
can_rx_unregister() is silently skipped, leaving a stale CAN filter
pointing at the soon-to-be-freed bcm_op/socket.
Hold a netdev_hold()/netdev_put() tracked reference on op->rx_reg_dev
from the moment the rx filter is registered in bcm_rx_setup() until it
is unregistered in bcm_rx_unreg(), and use that reference directly in
bcm_release() and bcm_delete_rx_op() instead of re-looking the device
up by ifindex. |

KVM: x86/mmu: Fix use-after-free on vendor module reload
mmu_destroy_caches() destroys pte_list_desc_cache and
mmu_page_header_cache, but leaves both pointers unchanged. The pointers
live in kvm.ko, and therefore survive when a vendor module is unloaded
while kvm.ko remains loaded.
If creation of pte_list_desc_cache fails during a subsequent vendor
module load, its assignment sets pte_list_desc_cache to NULL and the
error path calls mmu_destroy_caches(). mmu_page_header_cache still
points to the cache destroyed during the preceding vendor module
unload. Passing that stale pointer to kmem_cache_destroy() causes a
slab use-after-free.
Reproduce the issue on a v7.1.3 kernel with CONFIG_KASAN=y,
CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC=y, CONFIG_KVM=m, and CONFIG_KVM_INTEL=m. A
one-shot test hook forces pte_list_desc_cache to NULL on the second
invocation of kvm_mmu_vendor_module_init():
1. Load kvm.ko and kvm-intel.ko, creating both caches.
2. Unload only kvm_intel, leaving kvm.ko loaded.
3. Reload kvm_intel and force initialization through the -ENOMEM path.

| 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
releases the wait_for_completion(&hif_dev->fw_done) in a concurrent
ath9k_hif_usb_disconnect(), which then kfree()s hif_dev. The trailing
dev_info() in the frame that re-armed the request can therefore read freed
memory (hif_dev->udev, the first field of struct hif_device_usb):

The fw_done barrier only makes disconnect wait for the firmware chain to
*terminate*; it does not protect the outer ath9k_hif_request_firmware()
frame that re-armed the request and keeps touching hif_dev afterwards.
Drop the post-request dev_info(): it is the only use of hif_dev after the
async request is armed, and it is purely informational (the dev_err() on the
failure path runs only when request_firmware_nowait() did not arm a callback,
so hif_dev is still alive there).
This was first reported by syzbot as a single, non-reproduced crash that was
later auto-obsoleted, and was independently rediscovered by the reFuzz fuzzer,
which produced a C reproducer (USB-gadget connect/disconnect of an ath9k_htc
device whose firmware download fails). The vulnerable code is unchanged and
still present in v7.1-rc6, where the slab-use-after-free reproduces under KASAN
once the (sub-microsecond) race window is widened. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (corsair-cpro) Stop device IO before calling hid_hw_stop

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`.
Fix the UAF by clearing `default_gov` if it matches the governor being
unregistered. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
amt: re-read skb header pointers after every pull
Several AMT receive and transmit paths cache a pointer into the skb head
(ip_hdr(), ipv6_hdr(), eth_hdr() or the AMT message header) and then call
a helper that can reallocate that head before the cached pointer is used
again. pskb_may_pull(), ip_mc_may_pull(), ipv6_mc_may_pull(),
iptunnel_pull_header(), ip_mc_check_igmp() and ipv6_mc_check_mld() can all
free the old head and move the data, so a pointer taken before the call
dangles afterwards and the later access is a use-after-free of the freed
head.
The affected sites are:
amt_rcv() caches ip_hdr() before amt_parse_type() pulls, then reads
iph->saddr.
amt_dev_xmit() caches ip_hdr()/ipv6_hdr() before ip_mc_check_igmp()/
ipv6_mc_check_mld() and pskb_may_pull(), then reads the group address.
amt_multicast_data_handler() caches eth_hdr() before pskb_may_pull(),
then writes the L2 header.
amt_membership_query_handler() caches the AMT header, the outer and
inner eth_hdr() and ip_hdr() before iptunnel_pull_header() and several
pulls, then reads and writes them.
amt_igmpv3_report_handler() and amt_mldv2_report_handler() cache
ip_hdr()/ipv6_hdr() and the current group record and read the record
count from the report header inside the record loop, across the
*_mc_may_pull() calls.
amt_update_handler() caches ip_hdr() and the AMT membership-update
header before pskb_may_pull(), iptunnel_pull_header(),
ip_mc_check_igmp() and the report handler, then reads iph->daddr and
amtmu->nonce / amtmu->response_mac.
Fix each site by either snapshotting the scalar that is used after the
pull before the first pull runs, or re-deriving the header pointer from
the skb after the last pull that can move the head. Values that are
stable across the pull (source and group address, the response MAC and
nonce, the record count, the outer source MAC) are snapshotted; pointers
that are written through or read repeatedly are re-derived. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fscrypt: Avoid dynamic allocation in fscrypt_get_devices()
When a blk_crypto_key starts being used or is evicted, fs/crypto/ calls
fscrypt_get_devices() to get the filesystem's list of block devices,
then iterates over them and calls blk_crypto_config_supported(),
blk_crypto_start_using_key(), or blk_crypto_evict_key() on each one.
Currently, the block device pointers are placed in a dynamically
allocated array. This dynamic allocation is problematic because:
- It can fail, especially at the fscrypt_destroy_inline_crypt_key() call
site when it's invoked for inode eviction under direct reclaim.
- fscrypt_destroy_inline_crypt_key() doesn't handle the failure. It
just zeroizes and frees the blk_crypto_key without calling
blk_crypto_evict_key(). That causes a use-after-free.
For now, let's fix this in the straightforward and easily-backportable
way by switching to an on-stack array. Currently the fscrypt
multi-device functionality is used only by f2fs, which has a hardcoded
limit of 8 block devices. An on-stack array works fine for that.
(Of course, this solution won't scale up to large number of block
devices. For that we'd need a different solution, like moving the block
device iteration into the filesystem. Or in the case of btrfs, which
will only support blk-crypto-fallback, we should make it just call
blk-crypto-fallback directly, so the block devices won't be needed.) |

net/x25: fix use-after-free in x25_kill_by_neigh()
x25_kill_by_neigh() walks the global X.25 socket list looking for sockets
attached to a terminating neighbour. x25_list_lock protects list membership
while the lookup is in progress, but it does not pin a socket's lifetime
after the lock is dropped.
The function currently drops x25_list_lock before calling lock_sock(s). A
concurrent close can run x25_release(), remove the same socket from
x25_list, and drop the last socket reference in that window. The neighbour
teardown path can then lock or inspect a freed struct sock/struct x25_sock.
Take sock_hold(s) while x25_list_lock still proves that the list entry is
live, then drop the temporary reference after the socket has been locked,
rechecked, and released. Recheck x25_sk(s)->neighbour after lock_sock(),
because another path may have disconnected the socket before this path
acquired the socket lock. Restart the list walk after each disconnect
because the list lock was dropped and the previous iterator state may no
longer be valid.
A QEMU/KASAN run against origin/master reproduced a slab-use-after-free in
x25_kill_by_neigh(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: policy: preallocate inexact bins before xfrm_hash_rebuild reinsert
xfrm_hash_rebuild()'s first loop preallocates the bins/chains the reinsert
loop needs, so the reinsert (after hlist_del_rcu()) cannot allocate or
fail. But its guard is inverted: it skips policies with prefixlen <
threshold and preallocates for the rest.
prefixlen < threshold is exactly when policy_hash_bysel() returns NULL and
the reinsert takes the allocating xfrm_policy_inexact_insert() path. So the
loop preallocates for the exact policies (which never allocate) and skips
the inexact ones, whose bin/node is then allocated GFP_ATOMIC during
reinsert. On failure the error path only WARN_ONCE()s and continues,
leaving a poisoned bydst node; the next rebuild's hlist_del_rcu()
dereferences LIST_POISON2 and takes a GPF. Reachable under memory pressure,
deterministic via failslab.
Invert the guard so preallocation covers exactly the reinserted policies;
the reinsert then allocates nothing and cannot fail.

ipv4: fib: free fib_alias with kfree_rcu() on insert error path
fib_table_insert() publishes new_fa into the leaf's fa_list with
fib_insert_alias() before calling the fib entry notifiers. When a
notifier fails, the error path removes new_fa with fib_remove_alias()
(hlist_del_rcu) and frees it right away with kmem_cache_free().
fib_table_lookup() walks that list under rcu_read_lock() only, so a
concurrent lookup that already reached new_fa keeps reading it after the

ksmbd: fix use-after-free of fp->owner.name in durable handle owner check
Two concurrent SMB2 durable reconnects (DH2C/DHnC) on the same
persistent_id race the fp->owner.name compare-read in
ksmbd_vfs_compare_durable_owner() against the kfree() in
ksmbd_reopen_durable_fd()'s reopen-success path. fp->owner.name is a
standalone kstrdup() buffer whose lifetime is independent of the fp
refcount, and the two sites share no lock: the compare reads the buffer
while the reopen frees it, so the strcmp() can dereference freed memory.
Commit 7ce4fc40018d ("ksmbd: fix durable reconnect double-bind race in
ksmbd_reopen_durable_fd") made the fp->conn claim atomic under
global_ft.lock (closing the owner.name double-free and the ksmbd_file
write-UAF), but the compare-read versus reopen-free pair was left
unserialized.

mmc: vub300: fix use-after-free on probe failure
The vub300 driver lifetime-manages its controller state using
vub300->kref, with vub300_delete() freeing the mmc host when the last
reference is dropped. The probe error path after the inactivity timer has
been armed still bypasses that lifetime rule, however, and falls through
to mmc_free_host() directly if mmc_add_host() fails.
The race window is between arming the inactivity timer and reaching the
probe error unwind after mmc_add_host() fails:
probe thread timer/workqueue
------------ ---------------
kref_init(&vub300->kref) ref = 1
kref_get(&vub300->kref) ref = 2, timer ref
add_timer(inactivity_timer) fires after one second

queue_work(deadwork)
mmc_add_host() fails
timer_delete_sync()
mmc_free_host(mmc)

deadwork runs
use-after-free
The inactivity timeout is one second, so this would require
mmc_add_host() to both fail and take more than one second to do so. This
is unlikely to happen in practice, but the error path is still wrong.
timer_delete_sync() only waits for the timer callback itself. It does
not flush deadwork that the callback may already have queued. As a
result, queued deadwork can still hold a kref while the probe error path
directly frees the backing mmc host, including the vub300 storage.
Fix this by using the same lifetime mechanism as disconnect. Clear
vub300->interface so that the timer callback and any queued deadwork
return early and drop their references, then drop the initial probe
reference and return without falling through to err_free_host. |
