| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/amd: Remove latent out-of-bounds access in IOMMU debugfs
In iommu_mmio_write() and iommu_capability_write(), the variables
dbg_mmio_offset and dbg_cap_offset are declared as int. However, they
are populated using kstrtou32_from_user(). If a user provides a
sufficiently large value, it can become a negative integer.
Prior to this patch, the AMD IOMMU debugfs implementation was already
protected by different mechanisms.
1. #define OFS_IN_SZ 8 ensures the user string <= 8 bytes, so
e.g. 0xffffffff isn't a valid input.
if (cnt > OFS_IN_SZ)
return -EINVAL;
2. Implicit type promotion in iommu_mmio_write(), dbg_mmio_offset is int
and iommu->mmio_phys_end is u64
if (dbg_mmio_offset > iommu->mmio_phys_end - sizeof(u64))
return -EINVAL;
3. The show handlers would currently catch the negative number and
refuse to perform the read.
Replace kstrtou32_from_user() with kstrtos32_from_user() to parse the
input, and check for negative values to explicitly prevent out-of-bounds
memory accesses directly in iommu_mmio_write() and
iommu_capability_write(). |
| 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:
efi: Allocate runtime workqueue before ACPI init
Since commit
5894cf571e14 ("acpi/prmt: Use EFI runtime sandbox to invoke PRM handlers")
ACPI PRM calls are delegated to a workqueue which runs in a kernel
thread, making it easier to detect and mitigate faulting memory accesses
performed by the firmware.
Rafael reports that such PRM accesses may occur before efisubsys_init()
executes, which is where the workqueue is allocated, leading to NULL
pointer dereferences. Since acpi_init() [which triggers the early PRM
accesses] executes as a subsys_initcall() as well, and has its own
dependencies that may be sensitive to initcall ordering, deferring
acpi_init() is not an option.
So instead, split off the workqueue allocation into its own postcore
initcall, as this is the only missing piece to allow EFI runtime calls
to be made. This ensures that EFI runtime call (including PRM calls) are
accessible to all code running at subsys_initcall() level. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers/base/memory: fix memory block reference leak in poison accounting
memblk_nr_poison_inc() and memblk_nr_poison_sub() look up a memory block
via find_memory_block_by_id(), which acquires a reference to the memory
block device.
Both helpers use the returned memory block without dropping that
reference, leaking the device reference on each successful lookup. Drop
the reference after updating nr_hwpoison. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm: fix __vm_normal_page() to handle missing support for pmd_special()/pud_special()
On x86 32-bit with THP enabled, zap_huge_pmd() is seen to generate a
"WARNING: mm/memory.c:735 at __vm_normal_page+0x6a/0x7d", from the
VM_WARN_ON_ONCE(is_zero_pfn(pfn) || is_huge_zero_pfn(pfn)); followed by
"BUG: Bad rss-counter state"s, then later "BUG: Bad page state"s when
reclaim gets to call shrink_huge_zero_folio_scan().
It's as if the _PAGE_SPECIAL bit never got set in the huge_zero pmd: and
indeed, whereas pte_special() and pte_mkspecial() are subject to a
dedicated CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_PTE_SPECIAL, pmd_special() and pmd_mkspecial()
are subject to CONFIG_ARCH_SUPPORTS_PMD_PFNMAP, which is never enabled on
any 32-bit architecture.
While the problem was exposed through commit d80a9cb1a64a
("mm/huge_memory: add and use normal_or_softleaf_folio_pmd()"), it was an
oversight in commit af38538801c6 ("mm/memory: factor out common code from
vm_normal_page_*()") and would result in other problems:
* huge zero folio accounted in smaps, pagemap (PAGE_IS_FILE) and
numamaps as file-backed THP
* folio_walk_start() returning the folio even without FW_ZEROPAGE set.
Callers seem to tolerate that, though.
... and triggering the VM_WARN_ON_ONE(), although never reported so far.
To fix it, teach vm_normal_page_pmd()/vm_normal_page_pud() to consider
whether pmd_special/pud_special is actually implemented. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/memory_hotplug: fix memory block reference leak on remove
Patch series "mm: Fix memory block leaks and locking", v2.
This series fixes two memory block device reference leaks and one locking
issue around the per-memory_block hwpoison counter.
This patch (of 2):
remove_memory_blocks_and_altmaps() looks up each memory block with
find_memory_block(), which acquires a reference to the memory block
device.
That reference is never dropped on this path, resulting in a leaked device
reference when removing memory blocks and their altmaps. Drop the
reference after retrieving mem->altmap and clearing mem->altmap, before
removing the memory block device. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: wwan: iosm: fix potential memory leaks in ipc_imem_init()
The memory allocated in ipc_protocol_init() is not freed on the error
paths that follow in ipc_imem_init(). Fix that by calling the
corresponding release function ipc_protocol_deinit() in the error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: bnep: Fix UAF read of dev->name
bnep_add_connection() needs to keep holding the bnep_session_sem while
reading dev->name (just like bnep_get_connlist() does); otherwise the
bnep_session() thread can concurrently free the net_device, which can for
example be triggered by a concurrent bnep_del_connection().
(This UAF is fairly uninteresting from a security perspective;
calling bnep_add_connection() requires passing a capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN)
check. It also requires completely tearing down a netdev during a fairly
tight race window.) |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
phonet/pep: disable BH around forwarded sk_receive_skb()
The networking receive path is usually run from softirq context, but
protocols that take the socket lock may have packets stored in the
backlog and processed later from process context. In that case
release_sock() -> __release_sock() drops the slock with spin_unlock_bh()
and then calls sk->sk_backlog_rcv() with bottom halves enabled.
Typical sk_backlog_rcv handlers process the socket whose backlog is
being drained, so the BH state at entry is irrelevant for the slocks
they touch. pep_do_rcv() is different: when the inbound skb targets an
existing PEP pipe, it forwards the skb to a different *child* socket
via sk_receive_skb(). That helper takes the child slock with
bh_lock_sock_nested(), which is just spin_lock_nested() and assumes BH
is already off. The same child slock therefore ends up acquired with
BH on (process path) and with BH off (softirq path):
process context softirq context
--------------- ---------------
release_sock(listener) __netif_receive_skb()
__release_sock() phonet_rcv()
spin_unlock_bh() __sk_receive_skb(listener)
[BH now ENABLED] [BH already disabled]
sk_backlog_rcv: sk_backlog_rcv:
pep_do_rcv() pep_do_rcv()
sk_receive_skb(child) sk_receive_skb(child)
bh_lock_sock_nested(child) bh_lock_sock_nested(child)
=> SOFTIRQ-ON-W => IN-SOFTIRQ-W
Lockdep flags this as inconsistent lock state, and it can become a real
self-deadlock if a softirq on the same CPU tries to receive to the same
child socket while its slock is held in the BH-enabled path:
WARNING: inconsistent lock state
inconsistent {SOFTIRQ-ON-W} -> {IN-SOFTIRQ-W} usage.

__release_sock net/core/sock.c:3216

pep_sock_accept net/phonet/pep.c:879
Wrap the forwarded sk_receive_skb() in local_bh_disable() /
local_bh_enable() so the child slock is always acquired with BH off.
local_bh_disable() nests safely on the softirq path.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: fix driver-set TX rates on old devices
On old devices such as 7265D, rates are still encoded in version 1
format, which doesn't use the CCK/OFDM rate index (0-3/0-7) but
rather their PLCP value (e.g. 10 for 1 Mbps CCK rate.)
While introducing v3 rates, I changed the driver from internally
handling v1 rates and converting to v2, to internally handling v3
and converting to v1 or v2 according to the firmware. I accordingly
changed the code in iwl_mvm_mac80211_idx_to_hwrate() to no longer
have different values for different APIs. This was correct.
However, I later reverted this part of the change, because it was
reported that I had broken beacon rates, causing a FW assert/crash.
This caused TX_CMD rates to be set incorrectly, potentially causing
a warning when reported back from the device as having been used.
Fix this (hopefully correctly now) by handling beacon rates in the
TX_CMD that's embedded in the beacon template command separately.
Restore iwl_mvm_mac80211_idx_to_hwrate() to return only the rate
index, not PLCP value, fixing the real TX_CMD. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: mld: stop TX during firmware restart
When iwlwifi firmware crashes (e.g., NMI_INTERRUPT_UNKNOWN on Intel
BE201/Wi-Fi 7), iwl_mld_nic_error() sets mld->fw_status.in_hw_restart
to true. However, iwl_mld_tx_from_txq() does not check this flag before
dequeuing frames from mac80211 and pushing them to the transport layer.
Since the firmware is dead, iwl_trans_tx() returns -EIO for each frame,
which then gets freed immediately. Under high-throughput conditions
(e.g., Tailscale UDP traffic or active SSH sessions), this creates a
tight dequeue-send-fail-free loop that wastes CPU cycles and generates
rapid skb allocation churn, leading to memory pressure from slab
fragmentation.
The RX path already has this guard (iwl_mld_rx_mpdu checks
in_hw_restart at rx.c:1906), and so does the TXQ allocation worker
(iwl_mld_add_txqs_wk at tx.c:156). Add the same guard to
iwl_mld_tx_from_txq() to stop all TX during firmware restart.
Frames left in mac80211's TXQs are naturally drained after restart
completes, when queue reallocation triggers iwl_mld_tx_from_txq()
via iwl_mld_add_txq_list(), or when new upper-layer traffic invokes
wake_tx_queue.
Tested on ASUS Zenbook 14 UX3405CA with Intel BE201 (Wi-Fi 7) on
kernel 6.19.5 where the firmware crashes approximately every 10-15
minutes under Tailscale traffic. |
| 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:
KVM: SVM: Disable AVIC IPI virtualization on Hygon Family 18h (erratum #1235)
Hygon Family 18h CPUs are derived from AMD Family 17h (Zen1) silicon and
share the same erratum #1235: hardware may read a stale IsRunning=1 bit
during ICR write emulation and silently fail to generate an
AVIC_IPI_FAILURE_TARGET_NOT_RUNNING VM-Exit on the sending vCPU.
The absence of the VM-Exit causes KVM to miss the required wakeup of
blocking target vCPUs, leading to hung vCPUs and unbounded delays in
guest execution.
Extend the existing AMD Family 17h erratum #1235 workaround to also cover
Hygon Family 18h. With IPI virtualization disabled, KVM never sets
IsRunning=1 in the Physical ID table, so every non-self IPI generates a
VM-Exit and is correctly emulated. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: tegra: fix pm_runtime leak on mutex_lock failure
If tegra_i2c_mutex_lock() fails, the function returns without calling
pm_runtime_put(), leaking the runtime PM reference acquired by the
preceding pm_runtime_get_sync(). This prevents the device from ever
entering runtime suspend.
Add the missing pm_runtime_put() before returning on lock failure. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kho: skip KHO for crash kernel
kho_fill_kimage() unconditionally populates the kimage with KHO
metadata for every kexec image type. When the image is a crash kernel,
this can be problematic as the crash kernel can run in a small reserved
region and the KHO scratch areas can sit outside it.
The crash kernel then faults during kho_memory_init() when it
tries phys_to_virt() on the KHO FDT address:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address xxxxxxxx
...
fdt_offset_ptr+...
fdt_check_node_offset_+...
fdt_first_property_offset+...
fdt_get_property_namelen_+...
fdt_getprop+...
kho_memory_init+...
mm_core_init+...
start_kernel+...
kho_locate_mem_hole() already skips KHO logic for KEXEC_TYPE_CRASH
images, but kho_fill_kimage() was missing the same guard. As
kho_fill_kimage() is the single point that populates image->kho.fdt
and image->kho.scratch, fixing it here is sufficient for both arm64
and x86 as the FDT and boot_params path are bailing out when these
fields are unset. |
