| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing/dma: Cap dma_map_sg tracepoint arrays to prevent buffer overflow
The dma_map_sg tracepoint can trigger a perf buffer overflow when
tracing large scatter-gather lists. With devices like virtio-gpu
creating large DRM buffers, nents can exceed 1000 entries, resulting
in:
phys_addrs: 1000 * 8 bytes = 8,000 bytes
dma_addrs: 1000 * 8 bytes = 8,000 bytes
lengths: 1000 * 4 bytes = 4,000 bytes
Total: ~20,000 bytes
This exceeds PERF_MAX_TRACE_SIZE (8192 bytes), causing:
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5497 at kernel/trace/trace_event_perf.c:405
perf buffer not large enough, wanted 24620, have 8192
Cap all three dynamic arrays at 128 entries using min() in the array
size calculation. This ensures arrays are only as large as needed
(up to the cap), avoiding unnecessary memory allocation for small
operations while preventing overflow for large ones.
The tracepoint now records the full nents/ents counts and a truncated
flag so users can see when data has been capped.
Changes in v2:
- Use min(nents, DMA_TRACE_MAX_ENTRIES) for dynamic array sizing
instead of fixed DMA_TRACE_MAX_ENTRIES allocation (feedback from
Steven Rostedt)
- This allocates only what's needed up to the cap, avoiding waste
for small operations

can: bcm: fix locking for bcm_op runtime updates
Commit c2aba69d0c36 ("can: bcm: add locking for bcm_op runtime updates")
added a locking for some variables that can be modified at runtime when
updating the sending bcm_op with a new TX_SETUP command in bcm_tx_setup().
Usually the RX_SETUP only handles and filters incoming traffic with one
exception: When the RX_RTR_FRAME flag is set a predefined CAN frame is
sent when a specific RTR frame is received. Therefore the rx bcm_op uses
bcm_can_tx() which uses the bcm_tx_lock that was only initialized in
bcm_tx_setup(). Add the missing spin_lock_init() when allocating the
bcm_op in bcm_rx_setup() to handle the RTR case properly. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: ccp - Fix use-after-free on error path
In the error path of sev_tsm_init_locked(), the code dereferences 't'
after it has been freed with kfree(). The pr_err() statement attempts
to access t->tio_en and t->tio_init_done after the memory has been
released.
Move the pr_err() call before kfree(t) to access the fields while the
memory is still valid.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: gcs: Do not set PTE_SHARED on GCS mappings if FEAT_LPA2 is enabled
When FEAT_LPA2 is enabled, bits 8-9 of the PTE replace the
shareability attribute with bits 50-51 of the output address. The
_PAGE_GCS{,_RO} definitions include the PTE_SHARED bits as 0b11 (this
matches the other _PAGE_* definitions) but using this macro directly
leads to the following panic when enabling GCS on a system/model with

Similarly to how the kernel handles protection_map[], use a

if LPA2 is enabled.
Also remove the unused PAGE_GCS{,_RO} macros. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: io: Extract user memory type in ioremap_prot()
The only caller of ioremap_prot() outside of the generic ioremap()
implementation is generic_access_phys(), which passes a 'pgprot_t' value
determined from the user mapping of the target 'pfn' being accessed by
the kernel. On arm64, the 'pgprot_t' contains all of the non-address
bits from the pte, including the permission controls, and so we end up
returning a new user mapping from ioremap_prot() which faults when
accessed from the kernel on systems with PAN:

Extract only the memory type from the user 'pgprot_t' in ioremap_prot()
and assert that we're being passed a user mapping, to protect us against
any changes in future that may require additional handling. To avoid
falsely flagging users of ioremap(), provide our own ioremap() macro
which simply wraps __ioremap_prot(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: usb: f81604: correctly anchor the urb in the read bulk callback
When submitting an urb, that is using the anchor pattern, it needs to be
anchored before submitting it otherwise it could be leaked if
usb_kill_anchored_urbs() is called. This logic is correctly done
elsewhere in the driver, except in the read bulk callback so do that
here also. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl: Fix race of nvdimm_bus object when creating nvdimm objects
Found issue during running of cxl-translate.sh unit test. Adding a 3s
sleep right before the test seems to make the issue reproduce fairly
consistently. The cxl_translate module has dependency on cxl_acpi and
causes orphaned nvdimm objects to reprobe after cxl_acpi is removed.
The nvdimm_bus object is registered by the cxl_nvb object when
cxl_acpi_probe() is called. With the nvdimm_bus object missing,
__nd_device_register() will trigger NULL pointer dereference when
accessing the dev->parent that points to &nvdimm_bus->dev.

This patch also relies on the previous change where
devm_cxl_add_nvdimm_bridge() is called from drivers/cxl/pmem.c instead
of drivers/cxl/core.c to ensure the dependency of cxl_acpi on cxl_pmem.
1. Set probe_type of cxl_nvb to PROBE_FORCE_SYNCHRONOUS to ensure the
driver is probed synchronously when add_device() is called.
2. Add a check in __devm_cxl_add_nvdimm_bridge() to ensure that the
cxl_nvb driver is attached during cxl_acpi_probe().
3. Take the cxl_root uport_dev lock and the cxl_nvb->dev lock in
devm_cxl_add_nvdimm() before checking nvdimm_bus is valid.
4. Set cxl_nvdimm flag to CXL_NVD_F_INVALIDATED so cxl_nvdimm_probe()
will exit with -EBUSY.
The removal of cxl_nvdimm devices should prevent any orphaned devices
from probing once the nvdimm_bus is gone.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/queue: Call fini on exec queue creation fail
Every call to queue init should have a corresponding fini call.
Skipping this would mean skipping removal of the queue from GuC list
(which is part of guc_id allocation). A damaged queue stored in
exec_queue_lookup list would lead to invalid memory reference,
sooner or later.
Call fini to free guc_id. This must be done before any internal
LRCs are freed.
Since the finalization with this extra call became very similar to
__xe_exec_queue_fini(), reuse that. To make this reuse possible,
alter xe_lrc_put() so it can survive NULL parameters, like other
similar functions.
v2: Reuse _xe_exec_queue_fini(). Make xe_lrc_put() aware of NULLs.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: split gc into unlink and reclaim phase
Yiming Qian reports Use-after-free in the pipapo set type:
Under a large number of expired elements, commit-time GC can run for a very
long time in a non-preemptible context, triggering soft lockup warnings and
RCU stall reports (local denial of service).
We must split GC in an unlink and a reclaim phase.
We cannot queue elements for freeing until pointers have been swapped.
Expired elements are still exposed to both the packet path and userspace
dumpers via the live copy of the data structure.
call_rcu() does not protect us: dump operations or element lookups starting
after call_rcu has fired can still observe the free'd element, unless the
commit phase has made enough progress to swap the clone and live pointers
before any new reader has picked up the old version.
This a similar approach as done recently for the rbtree backend in commit
35f83a75529a ("netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: don't gc elements on insert"). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/efi: defer freeing of boot services memory
efi_free_boot_services() frees memory occupied by EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODE
and EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA using memblock_free_late().
There are two issue with that: memblock_free_late() should be used for
memory allocated with memblock_alloc() while the memory reserved with
memblock_reserve() should be freed with free_reserved_area().
More acutely, with CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT=y
efi_free_boot_services() is called before deferred initialization of the
memory map is complete.
Benjamin Herrenschmidt reports that this causes a leak of ~140MB of
RAM on EC2 t3a.nano instances which only have 512MB or RAM.
If the freed memory resides in the areas that memory map for them is
still uninitialized, they won't be actually freed because
memblock_free_late() calls memblock_free_pages() and the latter skips
uninitialized pages.
Using free_reserved_area() at this point is also problematic because
__free_page() accesses the buddy of the freed page and that again might
end up in uninitialized part of the memory map.
Delaying the entire efi_free_boot_services() could be problematic
because in addition to freeing boot services memory it updates
efi.memmap without any synchronization and that's undesirable late in
boot when there is concurrency.
More robust approach is to only defer freeing of the EFI boot services
memory.
Split efi_free_boot_services() in two. First efi_unmap_boot_services()
collects ranges that should be freed into an array then
efi_free_boot_services() later frees them after deferred init is complete. |

drm/i915/gt: Check set_default_submission() before deferencing

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: smbdirect: introduce smbdirect_socket.recv_io.credits.available
The logic off managing recv credits by counting posted recv_io and
granted credits is racy.
That's because the peer might already consumed a credit,
but between receiving the incoming recv at the hardware
and processing the completion in the 'recv_done' functions
we likely have a window where we grant credits, which
don't really exist.
So we better have a decicated counter for the
available credits, which will be incremented
when we posted new recv buffers and drained when
we grant the credits to the peer. |

wifi: mac80211: Fix static_branch_dec() underflow for aql_disable.
syzbot reported static_branch_dec() underflow in aql_enable_write(). [0]
The problem is that aql_enable_write() does not serialise concurrent
write()s to the debugfs.
aql_enable_write() checks static_key_false(&aql_disable.key) and
later calls static_branch_inc() or static_branch_dec(), but the
state may change between the two calls.
aql_disable does not need to track inc/dec.
Let's use static_branch_enable() and static_branch_disable().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix NULL i_assoc_inode dereference in nilfs_mdt_save_to_shadow_map
The DAT inode's btree node cache (i_assoc_inode) is initialized lazily
during btree operations. However, nilfs_mdt_save_to_shadow_map()
assumes i_assoc_inode is already initialized when copying dirty pages
to the shadow map during GC.
If NILFS_IOCTL_CLEAN_SEGMENTS is called immediately after mount before
any btree operation has occurred on the DAT inode, i_assoc_inode is
NULL leading to a general protection fault.
Fix this by calling nilfs_attach_btree_node_cache() on the DAT inode
in nilfs_dat_read() at mount time, ensuring i_assoc_inode is always
initialized before any GC operation can use it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Fix NULL dereference on notify error path
Since commit b5daf93b809d1 ("firmware: arm_scmi: Avoid notifier
registration for unsupported events") the call chains leading to the helper
__scmi_event_handler_get_ops expect an ERR_PTR to be returned on failure to
get an handler for the requested event key, while the current helper can
still return a NULL when no handler could be found or created.
Fix by forcing an ERR_PTR return value when the handler reference is NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: mediatek: vcodec: fix use-after-free in encoder release path
The fops_vcodec_release() function frees the context structure (ctx)
without first cancelling any pending or running work in ctx->encode_work.
This creates a race window where the workqueue handler (mtk_venc_worker)
may still be accessing the context memory after it has been freed.
Race condition:
CPU 0 (release path) CPU 1 (workqueue)
--------------------- ------------------
fops_vcodec_release()
v4l2_m2m_ctx_release()
v4l2_m2m_cancel_job()
// waits for m2m job "done"
mtk_venc_worker()
v4l2_m2m_job_finish()
// m2m job "done"
// BUT worker still running!
// post-job_finish access:
other ctx dereferences
// UAF if ctx already freed
// returns (job "done")
kfree(ctx) // ctx freed
Root cause: The v4l2_m2m_ctx_release() only waits for the m2m job
lifecycle (via TRANS_RUNNING flag), not the workqueue lifecycle.
After v4l2_m2m_job_finish() is called, the m2m framework considers
the job complete and v4l2_m2m_ctx_release() returns, but the worker
function continues executing and may still access ctx.
The work is queued during encode operations via:
queue_work(ctx->dev->encode_workqueue, &ctx->encode_work)
The worker function accesses ctx->m2m_ctx, ctx->dev, and other ctx
fields even after calling v4l2_m2m_job_finish().
This vulnerability was confirmed with KASAN by running an instrumented
test module that widens the post-job_finish race window. KASAN detected:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in mtk_venc_worker+0x159/0x180

kfree+0xee/0x3a0
fops_vcodec_release+0xb7/0x190
Fix this by calling cancel_work_sync(&ctx->encode_work) before kfree(ctx).
This ensures the workqueue handler is both cancelled (if pending) and
synchronized (waits for any running handler to complete) before the
context is freed.
Placement rationale: The fix is placed after v4l2_ctrl_handler_free()
and before list_del_init(&ctx->list). At this point, all m2m operations
are done (v4l2_m2m_ctx_release() has returned), and we need to ensure
the workqueue is synchronized before removing ctx from the list and
freeing it.
Note: The open error path does NOT need cancel_work_sync() because
INIT_WORK() only initializes the work structure - it does not schedule
it. Work is only scheduled later during device_run() operations. |

net: usb: cdc-phonet: fix skb frags[] overflow in rx_complete()
A malicious USB device claiming to be a CDC Phonet modem can overflow
the skb_shared_info->frags[] array by sending an unbounded sequence of
full-page bulk transfers.
Drop the skb and increment the length error when the frag limit is
reached. This matches the same fix that commit f0813bcd2d9d ("net:
wwan: t7xx: fix potential skb->frags overflow in RX path") did for the
t7xx driver. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmsmac: Fix dma_free_coherent() size
dma_alloc_consistent() may change the size to align it. The new size is
saved in alloced.
Change the free size to match the allocation size. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: make use of smbdirect_socket.recv_io.credits.available
The logic off managing recv credits by counting posted recv_io and
granted credits is racy.
That's because the peer might already consumed a credit,
but between receiving the incoming recv at the hardware
and processing the completion in the 'recv_done' functions
we likely have a window where we grant credits, which
don't really exist.
So we better have a decicated counter for the
available credits, which will be incremented
when we posted new recv buffers and drained when
we grant the credits to the peer. |
