| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_flow_table: drop existing skb dst before skb_dst_set_noref()
Incoming skbs passing through netfilter flowtable offload hooks (or XFRM
offload path) might already carry a ref-counted dst_entry assigned during
earlier RX or routing steps.
Calling skb_dst_set_noref() when skb already holds a ref-counted dst
overwrites skb->_skb_refdst, leaking the previous dst_entry reference
count and triggering a DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE assertion in
skb_dst_check_unset():
WARNING: at skb_dst_check_unset include/linux/skbuff.h:1170
WARNING: at skb_dst_set_noref include/linux/skbuff.h:1234
WARNING: at nf_flow_offload_ip_hook+0xf6c/0x2b60 net/netfilter/nf_flow_table_ip.c:864
Drop any existing dst_entry reference with skb_dst_drop(skb) before
setting the non-referenced flowtable destination. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/ncsi: fix heap OOB read in NCSI_CMD_SEND_CMD payload length
ncsi_send_cmd_nl() takes the number of bytes to copy from the
attacker-controlled ncsi_pkt_hdr.length field of the in-band packet
header, while the source buffer is the NCSI_ATTR_DATA netlink
attribute whose readable size is nla_len() - sizeof(ncsi_pkt_hdr).
The two length sources are never cross-checked: only
nla_len() >= sizeof(struct ncsi_pkt_hdr) is enforced.
With hdr->length set larger than the attribute payload (up to 65535
against at most 2032 readable bytes), ncsi_cmd_handler_oem() copies
past the end of the netlink attribute buffer with unsafe_memcpy(),
leaking up to ~64KB of kernel heap memory into the transmitted NCSI
command packet. The destination skb is sized by the declared payload,
so the write side does not overflow - this is a pure OOB read /
information leak, reachable with CAP_NET_ADMIN on systems with a
registered NCSI device (e.g. OpenBMC on Aspeed BMC SoCs, where
NET_NCSI=y is standard).
Reject commands whose declared payload extends past the end of the
data attribute.
The issue was found by the autokbug dynamic kernel fuzzer at Tencent
Yunding Lab. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: prestera: validate firmware header length
prestera_fw_hdr_parse() reads the firmware header before checking
that the firmware image contains that header.
Reject images shorter than struct prestera_fw_header before decoding the
magic and version fields. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix TOCTOU race between smc_listen_out() and listener close
smc_listen_out() reads lsmc->sk.sk_state without the listener lock,
then acquires lock_sock_nested() only after the check passes. This
opens a window where smc_close_active() can transition the listener
to SMC_CLOSED, call smc_close_cleanup_listen() to drain the accept
queue, and release the lock, all between the lockless read and the
delayed lock acquisition:
smc_listen_work (smc_hs_wq) smc_close_active()
------------------------------- -------------------------
release_sock(child)
if (sk_state == SMC_LISTEN) TRUE
lock_sock(listener)
sk_state = SMC_CLOSED
smc_close_cleanup_listen()
release_sock(listener)
flush_work(tcp_listen_work)
lock_sock_nested(listener)
smc_accept_enqueue(listener, child) /* child enqueued on dead listener */
smc_close_active() flushes only tcp_listen_work. Work items already
dispatched onto smc_hs_wq for the CLC handshake continue running
unguarded. smc_accept_enqueue() takes a sock_hold() on the child that
is never released, so the child smc_sock, its clcsock, and the
reference all leak. A remote peer that opens TCP connections while the
server calls close() can exhaust kernel memory.
Move lock_sock_nested() to before the sk_state check so that the test
and the enqueue are atomic under the listener lock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: thunderbolt: Tear down DMA paths before stopping the rings
tbnet_tear_down() stops both rings and frees their frame buffers before
calling tb_xdomain_disable_paths(). tb_ring_stop() zeroes the ring's
descriptor base and tbnet_free_buffers() unmaps and frees the pages the
frames sit in, so by the time __tb_path_deactivate_hop() polls the hop's
'pending' bit, anything still in flight has nowhere to drain to.
The teardown sequence has been in this order since the driver was added.
The setup path has not: commit ff7cd07f3064 ("net: thunderbolt: Enable
DMA paths only after rings are enabled") moved the path enable to the end
of tbnet_connected_work() and documented why:
/* Both logins successful so enable the rings, high-speed DMA
* paths and start the network device queue.
*
* Note we enable the DMA paths last to make sure we have primed
* the Rx ring before any incoming packets are allowed to
* arrive.
*/
Teardown was never updated to match, so the rings and the paths now come
down in the same order they go up instead of in reverse.
On an ASMedia ASM4242 host router the 'pending' bit then never clears:
every teardown burns the full 500 ms timeout and
__tb_path_deactivate_hop() returns -ETIMEDOUT. Raising the timeout to
5 s does not help, so the hop is not slow to drain, it never drains
at all.
The failure is invisible above the thunderbolt core.
__tb_path_deactivate_hops() is void and only calls tb_port_warn();
tb_path_deactivate(), tb_tunnel_deactivate() and
__tb_disconnect_xdomain_paths() are void as well, and
tb_disconnect_xdomain_paths() ends in an unconditional "return 0". So
tb_xdomain_disable_paths() reports success and the netdev_warn() below
it never fires. Repeated teardowns eventually take the XDomain control
channel down, after which the peer node is gone and only a power cycle
brings the controller back.
Deactivating the paths first fixes it. Measured with kretprobes on a
stock v6.17 tree with no other patches applied, on a link that was up
and had just carried traffic:
before: __tb_path_deactivate_hop() returns 0 for the first hop, then
-ETIMEDOUT for the second 500335 us later
after: 0 for both, 525 us apart
Alternating the two orderings ABBA over three load levels, four
teardowns per arm: every teardown failed before the change (21 of 21
that ran), none failed after (0 of 24). The before arms ran short
because the link died partway through. The same split shows up when
the interface is enslaved to a bond instead of just brought down, which
is how I ran into this in the first place. Throughput and latency after
the change are unchanged.
Hosts whose routers drain the hop despite the stale descriptor base see
no functional difference, since the paths end up deactivated either way. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/ism: Fix UAF of sba and ieq during ism_dev_exit()
A ism interrupt handler can be active in parallel with ism_dev_exit(),
accessing freed data structures.
No new interrupts will be generated after unregister_ieq(). Drain ongoing
interrupt handlers by free_irq(), before freeing ism data structures. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/atm: fix slab-out-of-bounds read in vcc_setsockopt()
vcc_setsockopt() contained an ineffective optlen check:
if (__SO_LEVEL_MATCH(optname, level) && optlen != __SO_SIZE(optname))
return -EINVAL;
If __SO_LEVEL_MATCH(optname, level) evaluated to false (e.g. if the caller
passed a mismatched level), the length check optlen != __SO_SIZE(optname)
was short-circuited and bypassed. Execution then fell through to switch(optname),
calling copy_from_sockptr() assuming optval contained sufficient space.
Furthermore, even if level matched, a cgroup BPF setsockopt filter could shrink
optlen after entry. Because copy_from_sockptr() on kernel pointers uses memcpy(),
this leads to a KASAN slab-out-of-bounds read when optlen is smaller than the
expected structure size.
Fix this by using copy_safe_from_sockptr(), which unconditionally validates
that optlen is at least the expected size before copying. Also change the local
'value' variable type from 'unsigned long' to 'int' so that SO_SETCLP matches
its sizeof(int) ABI encoding on 64-bit systems. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: clear control chunk transport if it is being removed
sctp_make_heartbeat_ack() caches the destination transport in
chunk->transport without taking a reference. When src_out_of_asoc_ok is
enabled, the HEARTBEAT ACK may remain queued on control_chunk_list instead
of being transmitted immediately.
If the peer transport is removed while the chunk is still queued,
sctp_assoc_rm_peer() drops the transport and schedules it for RCU freeing,
but only clears cached transport pointers in out_chunk_list. The queued
control chunk therefore retains a dangling transport pointer.
Once an ASCONF_ACK clears the suppression and the queued control chunk is
transmitted, SCTP dereferences the stale transport pointer, leading to a
use-after-free.
Fix this by also clearing chunk->transport for queued control chunks in
control_chunk_list when removing the transport. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
watchdog: at91sam9_wdt: prevent timer rearm during teardown
at91_ping() rearms the watchdog timer from its callback. timer_delete()
neither waits for a running callback nor prevents it from rearming the
timer, so probe failure or driver removal can leave the timer accessing the
devm-allocated at91wdt after it has been freed.
Use timer_shutdown_sync() on both teardown paths. It waits for a running
callback and rejects any attempt by the callback to rearm the timer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rqspinlock: Reset tail when preserving queue on deadlock
Currently, the destruction of the waiter queue is suppressed for
rqspinlock in cases where a deadlock is detected. Deadlock checks happen
relatively frequently (on entry for AA, within 1ms for ABBA), and waiter
threads may not be involved in locking scenarios involving deadlocks.
Thus, it is useful to not flush the queue and let other waiters take a
stab at acquiring the lock after we detect a deadlock and exit.
However, we need to follow the same logic as what we did previously for
the waitq_timeout label: reset the tail, and if we cannot, signal the
next waiter appropriately. In case of deadlocks, this signal would just
mark the MCS node as unlocked, and in case of timeouts, it would signal
RES_TIMEOUT_VAL. The difference thus is in the value propagated, which
decides whether the queue remains active or gets flushed.
Not doing the tail reset, and waiting for the next waiter can lead to
cases where we are the final waiter, and thus no next waiter arrives,
leading to intermittent stalls in this path. Once the next waiter does
join, we will be unblocked. In the theoretical case when the next waiter
never joins, we risk stalling indefinitely.
This can only happen for ABBA deadlocks, since entry into the wait queue
is guarded with AA checks. A precise sequence of executions leading up
to this scenario can be:
CPU 0 holds lock A.
CPU 1 holds lock B.
CPU 2 attempts lock B, becomes the pending waiter for B.
CPU 0 attempts lock B. B has locked+pending bits set, thus CPU 0 queues.
CPU 1 attempts lock A.
CPU 0 detects an ABBA deadlock.
Once deadlock detection happens for CPU 0, it will sit waiting for the
next waiter in the queue to populate node->next, which will experience
delays until such a waiter arrives.
Fix this by adjusting the logic for the check for deadlocks preceding
the waitq_timeout label. It would make sense to consolidate code for
both cases and use 'ret' to distinguish the value being propagated, but
that is left as an exercise for a future refactoring task to avoid diff
noise in this patch. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (ltc4282) Clamp negative current limits
When a negative value is passed to ltc4282_write_curr(), the signed long
val is cast directly to u64:
drivers/hwmon/ltc4282.c:ltc4282_write_curr() {
/* need to pass it in millivolt */
u32 in = DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST_ULL((u64)val * st->rsense, DECA * MICRO);
...
}
This cast converts negative inputs into large positive values. The
subsequent division result overflows the u32 in variable, truncating
to a pseudo-random positive value. When this is passed to
ltc4282_write_voltage_byte(), it is clamped to the maximum limit instead
of zero.
Clamp val to 0 and to the maximum supported upper limit before the cast
and assign the result to a 64-bit temporary variable before the division
to avoid the underflow and an also possible overflow. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: tap: set skb->dev before parsing virtio net header in tap_get_user_xdp()
The commit 4f61f133f354 ("net: tap: NULL pointer derefence in
dev_parse_header_protocol when skb->dev is null") fixed a crash in
tap_get_user() by assigning skb->dev before calling tun_vnet_hdr_to_skb().
This is required because virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() may invoke
dev_parse_header_protocol(), which dereferences skb->dev. Without the
assignment, a NULL pointer dereference can occur.
However, tap_get_user_xdp() still parses the virtio-net header before
assigning skb->dev. When the vhost TX path passes an XDP buffer containing
a GSO virtio-net header but the protocol is set to zero on purpose,
tun_vnet_hdr_to_skb() can reach dev_parse_header_protocol() while skb->dev
is still NULL, resulting in a crash.
Fix this by looking up the tap device and assigning skb->dev before calling
tun_vnet_hdr_to_skb(), matching the ordering already used in
tap_get_user(). Preserve the existing RCU read-side critical section across
dev_queue_xmit(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: evdev - sanitize event type index when fetching event masks
The user-supplied event type index passed to EVIOCGMASK / EVIOCSMASK
ioctls is used to index the static counts array in evdev_get_mask_cnt()
and client evmasks array in evdev_get_mask().
While the event type is architecturally bounded by EV_CNT, speculative
execution may mispredict bounds checks and perform out-of-bounds loads.
Sanitize the event type index in evdev_get_mask_cnt() branchlessly using
array_index_mask_nospec(). This clamps the index to 0 for safe array
access and forces the returned count to 0 speculatively when the index
is out of bounds.
We do not need additional array_index_nospec() calls in evdev_get_mask()
because evdev_get_mask_cnt() speculatively forces the count (and
resulting xfer_size) to 0 for out-of-bounds types, preventing any
speculative memory access to client evmasks array. |

ALSA: usb-audio: fix OOB write on Type II inbound URBs
data_ep_set_params() sizes each URB transfer buffer before it adds the
Format Type II transfer delimiter:
u->packets = urb_packs;
u->buffer_size = maxsize * u->packets;
if (fmt->fmt_type == UAC_FORMAT_TYPE_II)
u->packets++; /* for transfer delimiter */
u->urb = usb_alloc_urb(u->packets, GFP_KERNEL);
buffer_size is computed from the pre-increment packet count and never
recomputed, so for a Type II endpoint the buffer is one packet short of
the packet count the URB is built with.
prepare_inbound_urb() then lays out one iso frame per packet and never
consults buffer_size:
offs = 0;
for (i = 0; i < urb_ctx->packets; i++) {
urb->iso_frame_desc[i].offset = offs;
urb->iso_frame_desc[i].length = ep->curpacksize;
offs += ep->curpacksize;
}
urb->transfer_buffer_length = offs;
urb->number_of_packets = urb_ctx->packets;
The last descriptor therefore points one packet past the end of the
transfer buffer, where the host controller writes device data on every
inbound transfer. prepare_silent_urb() and prepare_playback_urb() bound
their fill loops by ctx->buffer_size, so only capture is affected.
fmt_type comes from the device's audio streaming descriptors, so any
device advertising a Type II capture format hits this once userspace sets
hw_params on the stream.
KASAN on 7.2.0-rc5 (arm64) with a dummy_hcd/raw-gadget device, one report
per inbound transfer:

Compute buffer_size after the delimiter packet has been accounted for,
and bound the fill loop by buffer_size, as prepare_silent_urb() already
does on the outbound side. This grows every Type II URB allocation by
one maxsize packet.

usb: misc: usbio: check ibuf_len against rxbuf_len in bulk msg
ibuf_len is the bulk IN (receive) buffer size, but the EMSGSIZE check
in usbio_bulk_msg() compares it against txbuf_len — the bulk OUT
endpoint size. Both are taken independently from different endpoints
in usbio_probe(), so the check is wrong when they differ.
Use rxbuf_len for the IN direction. This matches the buffer that
actually holds the response data. |

usb: atm: cxacru: properly kill rcv_urb on error in cxacru_cm()
If cxacru_cm() encounters an error while submitting or waiting for snd_urb,
it aborts and returns the error without killing the already submitted
rcv_urb. This leaves the rcv_urb active.
When this happens during initialization (e.g., in cxacru_atm_start()), the
driver may ignore the error and proceed to call cxacru_poll_status(), which
invokes cxacru_cm() again. Attempting to submit the still-active rcv_urb
triggers a warning in usb_submit_urb():
cxacru 1-1:1.0: send of cm 0x84 failed (-104)
ATM dev 0: cxacru_atm_start: CHIP_ADSL_LINE_START returned -104

To fix this, ensure that rcv_urb is properly killed if cxacru_cm() aborts
early. We can safely call usb_kill_urb() on rcv_urb in the error path, as
it is safe to call even if the URB is not active (e.g., if it failed to
submit in the first place, or if it already completed). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_ncm: Use unsigned int for ndp_index
The variable ndp_index is declared as a signed integer, but it stores
the return value of get_ncm(), which is unsigned.
A malicious host can supply a large offset that overflows the signed
ndp_index, making it negative. Because ndp_index is compared against
unsigned bounds, this negative value bypasses sanity checks and leads
to an out-of-bounds read when calculating the address of the NDP
block (ntb_ptr + ndp_index).
Fix this by changing ndp_index to unsigned int to ensure consistent
unsigned comparisons throughout the function. |

net: usb: ax88179_178a: fix skb leak in ax88179_tx_fixup()
When the interface has NETIF_F_SG enabled and skb_linearize() fails in
ax88179_tx_fixup(), the function returns NULL without freeing the skb.
usbnet_start_xmit() treats a NULL return from tx_fixup() as a drop
(info->flags does not set FLAG_MULTI_PACKET for this driver), jumping
to the "drop" label where it does `if (skb) dev_kfree_skb_any(skb)`.
Because tx_fixup() returned NULL, the local skb variable in
usbnet_start_xmit() is NULL, so the original skb is never freed — a
memory leak on every TX frame whose linearization fails (i.e. under
memory pressure).
Free the skb before returning, matching the error handling already used
for the pskb_expand_head() failure path in the same function. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: ipheth: fix carrier_work UAF on disconnect
ipheth_sndbulk_callback() re-arms the carrier-check work on any
non-zero URB status:
else
schedule_delayed_work(&dev->carrier_work, 0);
Nothing ties that to the interface being up, so the work can be armed
again after ipheth_close() has already drained it, and stay armed
until the netdev whose private area embeds it is freed.
On unplug with a TX URB in flight, ipheth_disconnect() drains the work
through unregister_netdev() -> ipheth_close() ->
cancel_delayed_work_sync() and only then calls ipheth_kill_urbs().
usb_kill_urb() completes the in-flight TX URB with -ENOENT, so
ipheth_sndbulk_callback() runs after the drain and re-arms
carrier_work.
The same completion also re-arms the work if the interface is only
brought down while a TX URB is in flight, and
ipheth_carrier_check_work() then keeps re-queueing itself once a
second. unregister_netdev() does not call ipheth_close() for an
already-down interface, so nothing drains it on the later unplug
either.
In both cases free_netdev() frees the netdev while carrier_work is
still pending, and ipheth_carrier_check_work() dereferences freed
memory.
Tie the work to the interface state instead of chasing the completion:
disable it in ipheth_close() and enable it in ipheth_open(), so a
schedule_delayed_work() from the URB completion is a no-op whenever
the interface is not up. disable_delayed_work_sync() also waits for a
running instance, so it fully replaces the cancel_delayed_work_sync()
it takes the place of. The work starts out disabled in ipheth_probe()
so the enable/disable counts balance from the first open.
Reproduced under KASAN on linux-next (next-20260731) with dummy_hcd and
raw-gadget standing in for the device, driving the second path above (the
interface is already down, so unregister_netdev() does not call
ipheth_close()): 15 of 15 unpatched boots report a slab-use-after-free in
__run_timers(), freed by ipheth_disconnect() and re-armed from
ipheth_sndbulk_callback() via queue_delayed_work_on(). The
same trigger on a kernel differing only by this patch reports 0 of 15,
and the carrier check still functions across open/close cycles.
The reproducer needs an attached USB device that stops draining bulk OUT,
plus a link down and unplug, driven as root. It is not a privilege
boundary crossing and no exploit primitive was developed.
