In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Fix DM I2C teardown race DM I2C adapters can remain visible to userspace while DM teardown is already in progress. A concurrent i2c-dev transfer may then enter amdgpu_dm_i2c_xfer() after the backing DM state has been torn down, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. Create a devres group around the DM I2C adapter lifetime and release it at the start of dm_hw_fini(), before HPD, IRQ, and DM state are torn down. This removes the I…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/bridge: tc358767: clamp the reported AUX read size to the request tc_aux_transfer() clamps an AUX read to the payload limit: size_t size = min_t(size_t, DP_AUX_MAX_PAYLOAD_BYTES - 1, msg->size); After the transfer it replaces size with the byte count the controller reports in AUX_BYTES: if (size) size = FIELD_GET(AUX_BYTES, auxstatus); AUX_BYTES is GENMASK(15, 8), so it can be up to 255. Nothing clamps it back to the request. tc_aux_r…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/mm/pat: Take cpa_lock around large-page collapse Loading and unloading modules concurrently on several CPUs on a KASAN build, with a short delay injected at the CPA page-table lookup to widen the window, faults within minutes: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in __change_page_attr+0x7cc/0x7e0 Write of size 8 at addr ffff888181139718 by task modprobe ...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: iwlwifi: fix counter type in iwl_fwrt_dump_error_logs The loop counter 'count' was declared as u8 while num_pc is u32. If firmware advertises more than 255 PC entries the counter wraps back to zero and the loop never terminates potentially causing an infinite loop or reading past the allocated pc_data array. Change the declaration to u32 to match num_pc.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: fix off-by-one in TXF key sanitiser iwl_mvm_frob_txf_key_iter() tracks the last matched byte position in loop variable 'i'. When a full key match is found (match == keylen), 'i' points at the last byte of the matched key. The memset start offset should therefore be i + 1 - keylen, not i - keylen; the current code zeroes one byte before the match and leaves the final key byte un-sanitised.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: iwlwifi: mei: check SAP message length before reading it Verify the SAP message size is not larger than the local buffer before reading the message to avoid buffer overflow.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: iwlwifi: guard against division by zero in iwl_dbg_tlv_alloc_fragments Make sure we don't end-up with a num_frags = 0 situation. For that, check that the required size is not 0 and put a checker on num_frags as well.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gpu: host1x: Avoid stack over-read in debug output helpers host1x_debug_output() and host1x_debug_cont() used vsnprintf(), which returns the length the formatted string would have reached with an unbounded buffer. That return value was passed straight to o->fn as the number of bytes to emit. This could cause a read past end of the output buffer if a call to host1x_debug_* produced a string longer than 256 bytes. This only affected the debugfs fi…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/msm/adreno: fix use after free on error path in a6xx_gpu_init() The a6xx_destroy() function frees "a6xx_gpu" and so "adreno_gpu" points to freed memory. Preserve the error code before freeing the memory to avoid a use after free. Patchwork: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/732275/

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/msm: Fix task_struct reference leak in recover_worker get_pid_task() increments the task reference count, but the corresponding put_task_struct() was missing in the else branch, leaking a reference on every GPU hang recovery. Patchwork: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/730662/

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/msm: Only fini scheduler after successful init msm_ringbuffer_new() destroys a partially initialized ring through msm_ringbuffer_destroy() when an allocation or scheduler setup step fails. If drm_sched_init() fails before it finishes initializing the scheduler, the failure path still calls drm_sched_fini(). That teardown path assumes the scheduler work items, lists, and workqueue state were initialized. Track successful scheduler initializa…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ufs: core: Avoid possible memory reclaim deadlock in TX EQTR context TX EQTR may run while devfreq gear scaling has quiesced the UFS tagset. In that context, functions ufshcd_tx_eqtr(), __ufshcd_tx_eqtr() and ufs_qcom_get_rx_fom() allocate memory with GFP_KERNEL. If direct reclaim is triggered, reclaim/writeback can depend on I/O to UFS device. Because the queue is quiesced, this can cause deadlock. Use memalloc_noio_save/restore() in ufsh…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_uac1_legacy: remove broken string configfs attributes The UAC1_STR_ATTRIBUTE macro defines configfs show/store handlers for the fn_play, fn_cap, and fn_cntl string options. The store function contains an inverted null check on the kstrndup() return value. This means every write attempt returns -ENOMEM on success and dereferences a NULL pointer on allocation failure. The attributes have been broken and unused for many years. Remov…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: UDF symlink pathComponent header OOB read udf_symlink_filler() can enter udf_pc_to_char() with a partial pathComponent header. Validate that enough input remains for a complete pathComponent header before accessing it. Reject malformed symlink data that would otherwise make udf_pc_to_char() perform an out-of-bounds read.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: uio: Fix stale info pointer in failed registration path After device_add(), the UIO device is visible to userspace and /dev/uioX can be opened. If a later setup step fails, __uio_register_device() unwinds the device but leaves idev->info pointing at the caller-owned struct uio_info. That is unsafe when an opener races with the failed registration path. The open file keeps a reference to the uio_device, while the caller sees registration failure …

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: speakup: keyhelp: guard letter_offsets possible out-of-range indexing help_init() builds letter_offsets[] by using the first byte of each function name as an index via `(start & 31) - 1`. If function_names are overridden from sysfs (root) with a name starting outside [a–z], the index underflows or exceeds the array, leading to OOB write. Function names can be overridden with the following commands as root: modprobe speakup_soft echo "0 …

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: misc: bcm-vk: Use acquire/release for msgq_inited bcm_vk_sync_msgq() fills the message queue information and then sets msgq_inited. Readers call bcm_vk_drv_access_ok() before accessing the message queues and their cached queue information. atomic_set()/atomic_read() do not order those accesses. A reader can see msgq_inited set while still seeing stale queue information. Use release when publishing the initialized queues and acquire when checking…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: misc: ad525x_dpot: use driver core groups for sysfs files ad_dpot_probe() creates per-RDAC sysfs files manually and then optionally creates the command sysfs group. This leaves probe responsible for rolling back partial sysfs state and makes remove responsible for matching every file that probe created. Move the device attributes into driver core dev_groups for the I2C and SPI drivers and use an is_visible() callback to expose only the attribute…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipack: ipoctal: fix UAF, null-ptr-deref, and use-after-free in cleanup on remove Three issues arise when the device is removed while a tty session is still active: 1. UAF of struct ipoctal: the remove callback frees ipoctal via kfree() while tty ops may still access it. Fix by introducing kref-based lifetime management — kref is taken in install() when a tty is opened and released in cleanup() when the tty is finally destroyed; remo…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mtd: mtdswap: Avoid freeing registered blktrans device twice In mtdswap_add_mtd(), debugfs setup failure after successful blktrans registration can free mbd_dev twice. add_mtd_blktrans_dev() initializes the blktrans device reference and publishes the disk. Once that succeeds, del_mtd_blktrans_dev() tears the disk down and drops the blktrans reference; when that reference reaches zero, blktrans_dev_release() frees the mtd_blktrans_dev. The debug…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mtd: part: reject MTDPART_OFS_RETAIN in mtd_add_partition() mtd_add_partition() does not reject the special offset value MTDPART_OFS_RETAIN (-3), which leads to a WARN_ON in add_mtd_device() when called through the BLKPG ioctl on NAND devices. The RETAIN value depends on cur_offset being the end of the previous partition, but in the dynamic partition path cur_offset equals the offset argument itself, causing undefined behavior. Commit 5daa7b2149…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/v3d: Associate BOs with every job that accesses them A submission can expand into a chain of jobs (e.g. bin + render + cache clean). Implicit synchronization in v3d_submit_lock_reservations() is gated on each job's bo[], but the BO list was only ever attached to the last job of the chain. When that last job is a trailing CACHE_CLEAN job, the job that actually consumes the BOs (that is, a RENDER or CSD job) was left with bo_count == 0 and pick…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: software node: Fix software_node_get_reference_args() with index -1 The bounds check for the index passed to software_node_get_reference_args() was failing when passed UINT_MAX, this in turn would lead to an out of bound access in the property array. Fix the bound check to also cover the UINT_MAX case.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Reject arena frees below the arena base bpf_arena_free_pages() accepts scalar arena addresses. The runtime masks the address to the low 32 bits and reconstructs a full user address from the arena base before returning the range to the arena free tree. When the scalar value is below the low 32 bits of the arena base, full_uaddr falls below user_vm_start. The existing upper-end clipping then turns this into an out-of-range free-tree offset. A…

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Disallow interpreter fallback for arena-related insns Since the interpreter does not support the arena-related insns, interpreter fallback should not be allowed for these insns in core.c::__bpf_prog_select_runtime(). Currently, when the interpreter executes the arena ST/LDX/STX insns, it would hit the BUG_ON() in ___bpf_prog_run() at run time.
