| 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 debugfs failure path called del_mtd_blktrans_dev(mbd_dev), then fell
through the common cleanup label and called kfree(mbd_dev) again. Clear
the local pointer after deregistration so the common cleanup can still
release the mtdswap state without freeing the blktrans object twice.
This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by
manual source review. |
| 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; remove() uses kref_put() instead of kfree().
2. NULL dereference in ipoctal_write_tty(): __ipoctal_remove()
frees xmit_buf via tty_port_free_xmit_buf() while a userspace
process may still hold the tty fd and call write(). Fix by
checking for NULL xmit_buf in ipoctal_write_tty().
3. UAF in ipoctal_cleanup(): ipack_put_carrier(ipoctal->dev)
dereferences ipoctal->dev after the ipack_device has been freed
by ipack_device_del(). Fix by caching ipoctal->carrier_owner
during probe() and calling module_put() on the cached pointer
directly in cleanup(), avoiding any access to ipoctal->dev.
Also introduce a "removed" flag in struct ipoctal, set at the start
of __ipoctal_remove(), and checked in every tty op that accesses
hardware resources (port_activate, write_tty, set_termios, hangup,
shutdown). This prevents page faults when devm_ioremap() regions
are unmapped after remove() returns. |
| 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 _bad" > /sys/accessibility/speakup/i18n/function_names
# then press Insert+2 on /dev/tty
This fix checks the first letter in help_init(), and if it is not in the
[a–z] range the function returns an error to the caller. Eventually this
error is propagated to drivers/accessibility/speakup/main.c:2217, which
causes a bleep sound. |
| 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:
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 initialization and call drm_sched_fini() only
after drm_sched_init() returned 0.
This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by
manual source review.

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
...
The buggy address belongs to the physical page:
pfn:0x181139 ... page_type: f2(table)
cpa_collapse_large_pages() rebuilds a leaf PMD from its 4K PTEs and
frees the old PTE-table pages, while __change_page_attr() fetches a
PTE pointer from a lockless lookup_address_in_pgd_attr() and writes
it with set_pte_atomic() only later. When module text is served from
a shared large ROX mapping the two run on the same PMD:
CPU A (module load) CPU B (module finalize)
------------------- -----------------------
execmem_make_temp_rw
set_memory_nx
__change_page_attr
split 2M -> 4K table P
kpte = &P[i] (lockless)
execmem_restore_rox
set_memory_rox (CPA_COLLAPSE)
cpa_collapse_large_pages
rebuild leaf PMD
flush_tlb_all
pagetable_free(P)
set_pte_atomic(kpte, ...)
-> writes into freed P
P is a page-table page (page_type: table), reused at once, so the
write corrupts whatever got the page next: a bad-pte or bad-page
splat, or a fatal fault once P has been turned into read-only text.
The flush_tlb_all() before the free does not close this: its IPI only
serializes against page-table walkers that run with interrupts off
(e.g. GUP-fast); the walk in __change_page_attr() runs with interrupts
on, so nothing stops it from holding a stale pointer into P.
Serialize the collapse - the PMD rebuild, TLB flush and PTE-table
free - under cpa_lock, the same lock __change_page_attr() now takes
unconditionally since commit ("x86/mm/pat: stop gating cpa_lock on
debug_pagealloc_enabled()"), so a concurrent walker can no longer
hold a pointer into a table the collapse is about to free. |

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 I2C adapters first and waits for in-flight users
to drain before the structures used by amdgpu_dm_i2c_xfer() disappear.
This fixes a teardown ordering race seen during device removal:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference
RIP: amdgpu_dm_i2c_xfer+0x122/0x1c0 [amdgpu]

ACPI: RISC-V: Check acpi_get_handle() status in riscv_acpi_add_prt_dep()
In riscv_acpi_add_prt_dep(), the acpi_get_handle() call can fail which
would leave link_handle uninitialized.
Fix it by checking the acpi_get_handle() return status and skip the entry
if it fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix buffer_head leak in ext4_init_orphan_info
ext4_init_orphan_info() reads orphan file blocks with ext4_bread()
and stores the returned buffer_head in oi->of_binfo[i].ob_bh.
If ext4_bread() succeeds but the orphan block magic or checksum
validation fails, the function jumps to out_free. However, the old
out_free loop starts releasing buffers from i - 1, so the current
buffer_head at index i is skipped.
This leaks the buffer_head reference obtained by ext4_bread() on the
bad magic and bad checksum error paths.
Fix this by tracking the number of successfully read buffer_heads and
releasing exactly those buffer_heads on the error path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bnxt_re: Clear VM_MAYWRITE on DBR/toggle page mmap
bnxt_re_mmap() rejects VM_WRITE for the DBR_PAGE and TOGGLE_PAGE mmap
flags, but a read-only mapping can still retain VM_MAYWRITE. nd later
be upgraded with mprotect(PROT_WRITE). This can bypass the write check
that only runs at mmap time.
Clear VM_MAYWRITE before vm_insert_page() in the shared DBR/toggle-page
branch, matching the existing policy that userspace writes are not
expected for these pages. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
irqchip/renesas-irqc: Fix generic interrupt chip leak on remove
The driver allocates domain generic chips probe. However, on driver
removal, the generic chips are not automatically freed when the interrupt
domain is removed because the domain flags do not include
IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_DESTROY_GC.
This causes both the domain generic chips structure and the associated
generic chips to be leaked. Additionally, the generic chips remain on the
global list and may later be accessed by generic interrupt chip suspend,
resume, or shutdown callbacks after the driver has been removed,
potentially resulting in a use-after-free and kernel crash.
Fix the resource leak by setting IRQ_DOMAIN_FLAG_DESTROY_GC on the
interrupt domain; this lets the interrupt domain core automatically
release all generic chips when irq_domain_remove() is invoked, removing
the need for manual cleanup calls in error paths and remove callback. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dax: read holder_ops once in dax_holder_notify_failure()
dax_holder_notify_failure() reads dax_dev->holder_ops twice without
READ_ONCE() -- once for the NULL check and once for the indirect
notify_failure() call. A concurrent fs_put_dax() can clear holder_ops
between the two reads, so the check can observe a non-NULL pointer while
the call dereferences NULL. (kill_dax() also clears holder_ops, but only
after synchronize_srcu(), so it cannot race a reader that is inside
dax_read_lock(); fs_put_dax() does no such synchronization.)
Fetch holder_ops once into a local with READ_ONCE() so the NULL check and
the indirect call observe the same value. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dax/fsdev: clear vmemmap_shift when binding static pgmap
Clear pgmap->vmemmap_shift for static DAX devices. When rebinding a static
device from device_dax (which may set vmemmap_shift based on alignment) to
fsdev_dax, the stale vmemmap_shift persists on the shared pgmap. Explicitly
zero it before devm_memremap_pages() so the vmemmap is built for order-0
folios as fsdev requires. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Fix transport device teardown lookup
SCMI transport devices are deliberately excluded from normal SCMI bus
matching so protocol drivers cannot bind to the internal transport
children. However, scmi_device_destroy() uses the same protocol/name
lookup to find devices that must be unregistered during channel teardown.
Split the match helper so driver matching still skips transport devices,
while explicit child lookup can find them for teardown. Use a shared
transport-device name prefix macro for both matching and name generation.
Since transport-device names are derived from direction and protocol ID,
reject duplicate protocol channel setup before creating or finding a
transport device. This prevents malformed firmware with duplicate
protocol child nodes from reusing an existing transport device and then
destroying it when the duplicate IDR insertion fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Fix SCMI device destroy lifetimes
scmi_child_dev_find() drops the reference returned by
device_find_child() before returning the scmi_device pointer. A
concurrent unregister can then release the device while the destroy path
is still using the returned pointer.
Make the lookup helper return the device_find_child() reference and keep
it until scmi_device_destroy() has finished unregistering the child.
Also split device_unregister() in __scmi_device_destroy() so the SCMI bus
ID is not made reusable until after device_del() has removed the old
scmi_dev.N name from sysfs. This avoids a new SCMI device reusing the
same ID while the old device is still registered.
The final device release callback is also a possible cleanup path when
SCMI children are deleted by driver core recursion rather than
__scmi_device_destroy(). Release the SCMI bus ID from a common helper
used by destroy, register-failure and final-release paths, and clear
scmi_dev->id after freeing it so the final release cannot free the same
ID again. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Drop handle on protocol bind failures
The SCMI bus notifier acquires an SCMI handle when the driver core emits
BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER, before invoking the protocol driver probe
callback. The protocol probe path only checks whether sdev->handle is
set.
If device_link_add() fails after the handle has been acquired, the
protocol device can still bind with a valid handle but without the
dependency link to the SCMI parent. A concurrent parent unbind can then
miss the child and tear down the SCMI instance while the child still
holds a handle into it.
If the protocol driver probe later fails, for example with
-EPROBE_DEFER, the driver core emits BUS_NOTIFY_DRIVER_NOT_BOUND rather
than BUS_NOTIFY_UNBOUND_DRIVER. The SCMI notifier only released the
handle on BUS_NOTIFY_UNBOUND_DRIVER, so each failed protocol-device bind
leaked the SCMI instance users refcount and left sdev->handle set after
the failed probe.
Make the link helper report failure and drop the acquired handle if the
link cannot be created. Also handle BUS_NOTIFY_DRIVER_NOT_BOUND in the
same cleanup path used for unbind so failed probes balance the earlier
BUS_NOTIFY_BIND_DRIVER acquisition. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: Avoid buffer overread in ath11k_wmi_tlv_op_rx()
Currently, in ath11k_wmi_tlv_op_rx(), the firmware buffer is read
without first verifying that the buffer has enough data to hold a
header. This could result in a buffer overread.
Add an upfront length check before dereferencing skb->data as a
wmi_cmd_hdr. The check is placed before the trace_ath11k_wmi_event()
call to preserve the existing trace semantics (tracing the full raw
WMI event including the header), unlike the analogous ath12k fix which
could use skb_pull_data() directly.
Compile tested only. |

ext4: clear stale xarray tags on folios skipped during writeback
In data=journal mode, the writeback thread can hit the

And followed by the warning:
EXT4-fs warning (device vda1): ext4_evict_inode:195: inode #6263:
comm (sd-umount): data will be lost
This issue is not reproduced every time, but frequently.
The reproduction step is to create a VM with 8 CPUs, 16G memory and
setup data=journal:
sudo tune2fs -o journal_data /dev/vda1
Run fio:
rm -f fiotest
fio --name=fiotest --rw=randwrite --bs=4k --runtime=6 --ioengine=libaio
--iodepth=256 --numjobs=8 --filename=fiotest --filesize=30G
--group_reporting
Reboot the VM, and check the console output from:
virsh console testvm
But there is no dirty inode, folio_clear_dirty_for_io clears PG_dirty
but leaves tags PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY and PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE set which
are only cleared by __folio_start_writeback.
In data=journal mode, jbd2 checkpoints the journalled data to its final
location and clears its own dirty flag without touching folio PG_dirty
or xarray dirty flags.
The commit f4a2b42e7891 ("ext4: fix stale xarray tags after writeback")
fixes when PG_dirty is still set but there is no dirty page.
Another case is PG_dirty is cleared, but PAGECACHE_TAG_DIRTY and
PAGECACHE_TAG_TOWRITE is still set. In this case, writeback thread
checks clean folio and skips it in mpage_prepare_extent_to_map:
if (!folio_test_dirty(folio) ||
...
folio_unlcok(folio);
continue
And never reaches ext4_bio_write_folio where the commit f4a2b42e7891
clears the stale xarray tags. Print debug logs after the filesystem
is remounted read-only:
writepages RDONLY nrpages=2048 dirtytag=1 wbtag=0 towrite=1 sync=0
And all folios are actually clean:
folio idx=3 dirty=0 wb=0 checked=0 dirtybuf=0 jbddirty=0 mapped=1
...
We need to clear the xarray stale tags for such clean folios by
cycling them through writeback in the skip path, the same way
f4a2b42e7891 does in ext4_bio_write_folio. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix ABBA deadlock in ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find()
Syzbot/stress-ng reported an ABBA deadlock in ext4 when exercising
concurrent xattr workloads (using the ea_inode mount/format option).
The deadlock occurs between the running transaction and the eviction
thread:
- Task 1 (stress-ng): Holds a reference to a shared mbcache_entry (ce)
and calls ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find() -> ext4_iget() to retrieve
the corresponding EA inode. Since the EA inode is currently being
evicted, ext4_iget() blocks in __wait_on_freeing_inode() waiting for
eviction to complete.
- Task 2 (eviction thread): Currently evicting the same EA inode in
ext4_evict_ea_inode(). It calls mb_cache_entry_wait_unused(oe) which
blocks waiting for Task 1 to release the reference to the mbcache_entry.
To break this deadlock, implement a new ext4_iget() configuration flag
named EXT4_IGET_NOWAIT. When set, perform a non-blocking lookup of the
inode via VFS's find_inode_nowait() API.
If the inode is currently being evicted (marked with I_FREEING or
I_WILL_FREE) or created (I_CREATING), or if it is not present in the VFS
inode cache (cache miss), simply skip it (returning -ENOENT) rather than
waiting for eviction/creation to complete, breaking the ABBA cycle.
Since we return -ENOENT immediately on a cache miss, we never attempt to
allocate a new inode or call iget_locked(), completely eliminating any
TOCTOU race window.
If the returned inode is I_NEW, wait for its initialization to clear via
wait_on_new_inode(). If initialization fails and the inode is unhashed
during wait_on_new_inode() waking up (e.g., due to an I/O read error in
another thread), safely drop the reference and return -ENOENT. This
unhashed check is executed unconditionally on all cache-hit pathways to
properly handle concurrent initialization failures.
Finally, standard validation checks (including is_bad_inode,
EXT4_EA_INODE_FL, file_acl, and xattr flags) are executed as normal inside
check_igot_inode() to fully guarantee VFS-layer safety.
In ext4_xattr_inode_cache_find(), invoke ext4_iget() with the new
EXT4_IGET_NOWAIT flag to perform the non-blocking cache search. |
