CVSS v3.1 |
| A code injection in Ivanti Endpoint Manager Mobile allowing attackers to achieve unauthenticated remote code execution. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: af_alg - Fix page reassignment overflow in af_alg_pull_tsgl
When page reassignment was added to af_alg_pull_tsgl the original
loop wasn't updated so it may try to reassign one more page than
necessary.
Add the check to the reassignment so that this does not happen.
Also update the comment which still refers to the obsolete offset
argument. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: icmp: fix null-ptr-deref in icmp_build_probe()
ipv6_stub->ipv6_dev_find() may return ERR_PTR(-EAFNOSUPPORT) when the
IPv6 stack is not active (CONFIG_IPV6=m and not loaded), and passing
this error pointer to dev_hold() will cause a kernel crash with
null-ptr-deref.
Instead, silently discard the request. RFC 8335 does not appear to
define a specific response for the case where an IPv6 interface
identifier is syntactically valid but the implementation cannot perform
the lookup at runtime, and silently dropping the request may safer than
misreporting "No Such Interface". |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: caif: hold tty->link reference in ldisc_open and ser_release
A reproducer triggers a KASAN slab-use-after-free in pty_write_room()
when caif_serial's TX path calls tty_write_room(). The faulting access
is on tty->link->port.
Hold an extra kref on tty->link for the lifetime of the caif_serial line
discipline: get it in ldisc_open() and drop it in ser_release(), and
also drop it on the ldisc_open() error path.
With this change applied, the reproducer no longer triggers the UAF in
my testing. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: soc-core: flush delayed work before removing DAIs and widgets
When a sound card is unbound while a PCM stream is open, a
use-after-free can occur in snd_soc_dapm_stream_event(), called from
the close_delayed_work workqueue handler.
During unbind, snd_soc_unbind_card() flushes delayed work and then
calls soc_cleanup_card_resources(). Inside cleanup,
snd_card_disconnect_sync() releases all PCM file descriptors, and
the resulting PCM close path can call snd_soc_dapm_stream_stop()
which schedules new delayed work with a pmdown_time timer delay.
Since this happens after the flush in snd_soc_unbind_card(), the
new work is not caught. soc_remove_link_components() then frees
DAPM widgets before this work fires, leading to the use-after-free.
The existing flush in soc_free_pcm_runtime() also cannot help as it
runs after soc_remove_link_components() has already freed the widgets.
Add a flush in soc_cleanup_card_resources() after
snd_card_disconnect_sync() (after which no new PCM closes can
schedule further delayed work) and before soc_remove_link_dais()
and soc_remove_link_components() (which tear down the structures the
delayed work accesses). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc, afs: Fix missing error pointer check after rxrpc_kernel_lookup_peer()
rxrpc_kernel_lookup_peer() can also return error pointers in addition to
NULL, so just checking for NULL is not sufficient.
Fix this by:
(1) Changing rxrpc_kernel_lookup_peer() to return -ENOMEM rather than NULL
on allocation failure.
(2) Making the callers in afs use IS_ERR() and PTR_ERR() to pass on the
error code returned. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: RX, Fix XDP multi-buf frag counting for striding RQ
XDP multi-buf programs can modify the layout of the XDP buffer when the
program calls bpf_xdp_pull_data() or bpf_xdp_adjust_tail(). The
referenced commit in the fixes tag corrected the assumption in the mlx5
driver that the XDP buffer layout doesn't change during a program
execution. However, this fix introduced another issue: the dropped
fragments still need to be counted on the driver side to avoid page
fragment reference counting issues.
The issue was discovered by the drivers/net/xdp.py selftest,
more specifically the test_xdp_native_tx_mb:
- The mlx5 driver allocates a page_pool page and initializes it with
a frag counter of 64 (pp_ref_count=64) and the internal frag counter
to 0.
- The test sends one packet with no payload.
- On RX (mlx5e_skb_from_cqe_mpwrq_nonlinear()), mlx5 configures the XDP
buffer with the packet data starting in the first fragment which is the
page mentioned above.
- The XDP program runs and calls bpf_xdp_pull_data() which moves the
header into the linear part of the XDP buffer. As the packet doesn't
contain more data, the program drops the tail fragment since it no
longer contains any payload (pp_ref_count=63).
- mlx5 device skips counting this fragment. Internal frag counter
remains 0.
- mlx5 releases all 64 fragments of the page but page pp_ref_count is
63 => negative reference counting error.
Resulting splat during the test:

The problem applies for XDP_PASS as well which is handled in a different
code path in the driver.
This patch fixes the issue by doing page frag counting on all the
original XDP buffer fragments for all relevant XDP actions (XDP_TX ,
XDP_REDIRECT and XDP_PASS). This is basically reverting to the original
counting before the commit in the fixes tag.
As frag_page is still pointing to the original tail, the nr_frags
parameter to xdp_update_skb_frags_info() needs to be calculated
in a different way to reflect the new nr_frags. |

net/mlx5: Fix crash when moving to switchdev mode
When moving to switchdev mode when the device doesn't support IPsec,
we try to clean up the IPsec resources anyway which causes the crash
below, fix that by correctly checking for IPsec support before trying
to clean up its resources.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xprtrdma: Decrement re_receiving on the early exit paths
In the event that rpcrdma_post_recvs() fails to create a work request
(due to memory allocation failure, say) or otherwise exits early, we
should decrement ep->re_receiving before returning. Otherwise we will
hang in rpcrdma_xprt_drain() as re_receiving will never reach zero and
the completion will never be triggered.
On a system with high memory pressure, this can appear as the following

rapidio: replace rio_free_net() with kfree() in rio_scan_alloc_net()

so kfree(net) is sufficient to release the memory. Set mport->net to NULL

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/page_alloc: clear page->private in free_pages_prepare()
Several subsystems (slub, shmem, ttm, etc.) use page->private but don't
clear it before freeing pages. When these pages are later allocated as
high-order pages and split via split_page(), tail pages retain stale
page->private values.
This causes a use-after-free in the swap subsystem. The swap code uses
page->private to track swap count continuations, assuming freshly
allocated pages have page->private == 0. When stale values are present,
swap_count_continued() incorrectly assumes the continuation list is valid
and iterates over uninitialized page->lru containing LIST_POISON values,
causing a crash:
KASAN: maybe wild-memory-access in range [0xdead000000000100-0xdead000000000107]
RIP: 0010:__do_sys_swapoff+0x1151/0x1860

btrfs: fix transaction abort when snapshotting received subvolumes
Currently a user can trigger a transaction abort by snapshotting a
previously received snapshot a bunch of times until we reach a
BTRFS_UUID_KEY_RECEIVED_SUBVOL item overflow (the maximum item size we
can store in a leaf). This is very likely not common in practice, but
if it happens, it turns the filesystem into RO mode. The snapshot, send
and set_received_subvol and subvol_setflags (used by receive) don't
require CAP_SYS_ADMIN, just inode_owner_or_capable(). A malicious user
could use this to turn a filesystem into RO mode and disrupt a system.

ublk: fix NULL pointer dereference in ublk_ctrl_set_size()
ublk_ctrl_set_size() unconditionally dereferences ub->ub_disk via
set_capacity_and_notify() without checking if it is NULL.
ub->ub_disk is NULL before UBLK_CMD_START_DEV completes (it is only
assigned in ublk_ctrl_start_dev()) and after UBLK_CMD_STOP_DEV runs
(ublk_detach_disk() sets it to NULL). Since the UBLK_CMD_UPDATE_SIZE
handler performs no state validation, a user can trigger a NULL pointer
dereference by sending UPDATE_SIZE to a device that has been added but
not yet started, or one that has been stopped.
Fix this by checking ub->ub_disk under ub->mutex before dereferencing
it, and returning -ENODEV if the disk is not available. |

xfs: fix undersized l_iclog_roundoff values
If the superblock doesn't list a log stripe unit, we set the incore log
roundoff value to 512. This leads to corrupt logs and unmountable
filesystems in generic/617 on a disk with 4k physical sectors...

...observe that the log section has sectsz=4096 sunit=0, which means
that the roundoff factor is 512, not 4096 as you'd expect. We should
fix mkfs not to generate broken filesystems, but anyone can fuzz the
ondisk superblock so we should be more cautious. I think the inadequate
logic predates commit a6a65fef5ef8d0, but that's clearly going to
require a different backport. |
| 18next-http-middleware is a middleware to be used with Node.js web frameworks like express or Fastify and also for Deno. Versions prior to 3.9.3 allow an unauthenticated HTTP client to pollute Object.prototype in the Node.js process hosting the middleware, via two unvalidated entry points that reach internal object-key writes: getResourcesHandler and missingKeyHandler. This can break authorisation checks (if (user.isAdmin) returning true for any user), cause type-confusion DoS, and depending on downstream code it can be chained into RCE. |
| In th30d4y/IP from version 1.0.1 to before version 2.0.1, a DOM-Based Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability was identified in an IP Reputation Checker application. Unsanitized user input was directly rendered in the browser, allowing attackers to execute arbitrary JavaScript. This issue has been patched in version 2.0.1. |

ovpn: tcp - fix packet extraction from stream
When processing TCP stream data in ovpn_tcp_recv, we receive large
cloned skbs from __strp_rcv that may contain multiple coalesced packets.
The current implementation has two bugs:
1. Header offset overflow: Using pskb_pull with large offsets on
coalesced skbs causes skb->data - skb->head to exceed the u16 storage
of skb->network_header. This causes skb_reset_network_header to fail
on the inner decapsulated packet, resulting in packet drops.
2. Unaligned protocol headers: Extracting packets from arbitrary
positions within the coalesced TCP stream provides no alignment
guarantees for the packet data causing performance penalties on
architectures without efficient unaligned access. Additionally,
openvpn's 2-byte length prefix on TCP packets causes the subsequent
4-byte opcode and packet ID fields to be inherently misaligned.
Fix both issues by allocating a new skb for each openvpn packet and
using skb_copy_bits to extract only the packet content into the new
buffer, skipping the 2-byte length prefix. Also, check the length before
invoking the function that performs the allocation to avoid creating an
invalid skb.
If the packet has to be forwarded to userspace the 2-byte prefix can be
pushed to the head safely, without misalignment.
As a side effect, this approach also avoids the expensive linearization
that pskb_pull triggers on cloned skbs with page fragments. In testing,
this resulted in TCP throughput improvements of up to 74%. |

kexec: derive purgatory entry from symbol
kexec_load_purgatory() derives image->start by locating e_entry inside an
SHF_EXECINSTR section. If the purgatory object contains multiple
executable sections with overlapping sh_addr, the entrypoint check can
match more than once and trigger a WARN.
Derive the entry section from the purgatory_start symbol when present and
compute image->start from its final placement. Keep the existing e_entry
fallback for purgatories that do not expose the symbol.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: accel: adxl380: Avoid reading more entries than present in FIFO
The interrupt handler reads FIFO entries in batches of N samples, where N
is the number of scan elements that have been enabled. However, the sensor
fills the FIFO one sample at a time, even when more than one channel is
enabled. Therefore,the number of entries reported by the FIFO status
registers may not be a multiple of N; if this number is not a multiple, the
number of entries read from the FIFO may exceed the number of entries
actually present.
To fix the above issue, round down the number of FIFO entries read from the
status registers so that it is always a multiple of N. |
| Inefficient Algorithmic Complexity vulnerability in absinthe-graphql absinthe allows unauthenticated denial of service via quadratic fragment-name uniqueness validation.
'Elixir.Absinthe.Phase.Document.Validation.UniqueFragmentNames':run/2 iterates over all fragments and for each one calls duplicate?/2, which evaluates Enum.count(fragments, &(&1.name == name)) — a full linear scan of the fragment list. The result is O(N²) comparisons per document, where N is the number of fragment definitions supplied by the caller.
Because input.fragments is built directly from the GraphQL query body, N is fully attacker-controlled. A minimum-size fragment definition is roughly 16 bytes, so a ~1 MB document carries ~60,000 fragments and forces ~3.6 × 10⁹ comparisons inside this single validation phase. No authentication, schema knowledge, or special configuration is required.
This issue affects absinthe: from 1.2.0 before 1.10.2. |
