In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: free inetopt and ireqopt after an RCU grace period
tcpv4synrecvsock() transfers ownership of ireq->ireqopt to the child socket (newinet->inetopt) without copying it.
Another cpu can concurrently process a retransmitted SYN for the same request socket, and send a SYNACK from tcpcheckreq(). tcpv4sendsynack() and inetcskroutereq() read ireq->ireqopt under rcureadlock() only, and ipbuildandsendpkt() and ipoptionsbuild() then read opt->optlen twice.
Note that the SYNACK timer itself is not an issue: it holds a reference on its request socket, and inetcskreqskqueuedrop() calls timerdeletesync() before the child can be freed.
Since commit 079096f103fa ("tcp/dccp: install synrecv requests into ehash table"), request sockets are processed without holding the listener lock, so nothing prevents the child socket from being freed while the SYNACK is still being built. TCP child sockets do not have SOCKRCUFREE, and inetsockdestruct() frees inetopt with a plain kfree(), leading to a use-after-free in ipoptionsbuild().
A similar issue exists with request socket migration (net.ipv4.tcpmigratereq=1, or a BPFSKREUSEPORTSELECTORMIGRATE program). reqsktimerhandler() clones the request socket with inetreqskclone(), so that the old request socket and its clone share the same ireqopt, then reqskmigratereset() clears the pointer in the old one. Another cpu holding a reference on the old request socket can still be using these options (sending a SYNACK, or creating a child in tcpv4synrecvsock()) when the clone is freed, and tcpv4reqskdestructor() also uses a plain kfree().
Readers already use RCU, and other paths replacing inetopt (doipsetsockopt(), cipsov4socksetattr()...) already use kfreercu(). Use kfreercu() in inetsockdestruct() and tcpv4reqskdestructor() as well.
IPv6 is not affected by the first issue, because tcpv6synrecvsock() duplicates the options. tcpv6reqskdestructor() has the same migration issue with ipv6opt, which is only set by CALIPSO. This will be addressed in a separate patch.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/srpt: Fix srptallocrwctxs() unwind counters
When srptallocrwctxs() fails partway through a multi-buffer indirect descriptor, the unwind path destroys RDMA contexts but leaves stale nrwctx and nrdma values (and a dangling rwctxs pointer). Later sqwravail accounting in srptqueueresponse() or srptwritepending() can then subtract the wrong number of send queue credits.
Reset the counters and clear rwctxs after freeing the heap allocation before returning an error.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: don't free the ASCONF's own transport in DEL-IP processing
sctpprocessasconf() caches the transport the ASCONF chunk is processed against in asconf->transport (== chunk->transport, set once in sctprcv()). For an ASCONF located through its Address Parameter by sctprcvasconflookup(), that cached transport corresponds to the Address Parameter, which need not be the packet's source address.
sctpprocessasconfparam() rejects a DEL-IP for the packet source address (ADDIP D8, SCTPERRORDELSRCIP), but nothing protects asconf->transport. A single ASCONF can therefore carry, in order:
[Address Parameter L] [DEL-IP L] [DEL-IP 0.0.0.0]
where L differs from the source. The DEL-IP for L passes the D8 check and calls sctpassocrmpeer() on the transport that asconf->transport still points at, freeing it (RCU-deferred). The following wildcard DEL-IP then reuses the now-dangling asconf->transport in sctpassocsetprimary() and sctpassocdelnonprimarypeers(): setprimary() dereferences the freed transport (->ipaddr, ->state) and plants the dangling pointer into asoc->peer.primarypath / activepath, and delnonprimarypeers(), keeping only the pointer that is no longer on the list, removes every real transport, leaving the association with a transportcount of 0 and primarypath/activepath pointing at freed memory.
Reject a DEL-IP that targets the transport the ASCONF is being processed against, mirroring the existing source-address guard, so the wildcard branch can never reuse a freed transport.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Reject fragmented frames in devmap
Devmap broadcast redirects clone the packet for all but the last destination.
For native XDP, that clone path copies only the linear xdpframe data, while fragmented frames keep skbsharedinfo in tailroom outside the linear area. Cloning such a frame leaves XDPFLAGSHASFRAGS set but without valid frag metadata, and the later free path can interpret uninitialized tail data as skbsharedinfo, leading to an out-of-bounds access during frame return.
Reject fragmented native XDP frames in devmapenqueueclone().
Add the same restriction to the generic XDP clone path in devmapredirectclone(). Generic XDP represents fragmented packets as nonlinear skbs, and rejecting them here keeps clone-based broadcast support aligned between native and generic XDP.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: fsl-lpspi: terminate the RX channel on TX prepare failure path
When dmaengineprepslavesg() fails for the TX channel, the error path terminates the TX DMA channel but leaves the RX channel running. Since the RX channel was already submitted and issued prior to preparing the TX descriptor, returning -EINVAL causes the SPI core to unmap the DMA buffers while the RX DMA engine continues writing to them, leading to potential memory corruption or use-after-free.
Terminate the RX channel before returning on the TX prepare failure path.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/siw: bound Read Response placement to the RREAD length
In drivers/infiniband/sw/siw/siwqprx.c, siwprocrresp() places each inbound Read Response DDP segment at sge->laddr + wqe->processed and then accumulates wqe->processed, but it never checks the running total against the sink buffer length on continuation segments. siwchecksge() resolves and validates the sink memory only on the first fragment (the if (!mem) branch), and siwrrespcheckntoh() compares the cumulative length against wqe->bytes only on the final segment (the !frx->moreddpsegs guard).
A connected siw peer that answers an outstanding RREAD with Read Response segments that keep the DDP Last flag clear, carrying more total payload than the RREAD requested, drives wqe->processed past the validated sink buffer; the next siwrxdata() call writes out of bounds at sge->laddr + wqe->processed. siw runs iWARP over ordinary routable TCP, so the peer is the remote end of an established RDMA connection and needs no local privilege.
Bound every segment before placement, exactly as siwprocsend() and siwprocwrite() already do for their tagged and untagged paths, and terminate the connection with a base-or-bounds DDP error when the Read Response would overrun the sink buffer.
This is the second receive-path length fix for this file. A separate change rejects an MPA FPDU length that underflows the per-fragment remainder in the header decode; that guard does not cover this case, because here each individual segment length is self-consistent and only the accumulated placement offset overruns the buffer.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: cortina: Carry over frag counter
The gmacrx() NAPI poll function assembles packets in an SKB from a ring buffer.
If the ring buffer gets completely emptied during a poll cycle, we exit gmacrx(), but the packet is not yet completely assembled in the SKB, yet the fragment counter fragnr is reset to zero on the next invocation.
Solve this by making the RX fragment counter a part of the port struct, and carry it over between invocations.
Reset the fragment counter only right after calling napigrofrags(), on error (after calling napifreefrags()) or if stopping the port.
Reset it in some place where not strictly necessary just to emphasize what is going on.
This was found by Sashiko during normal patch review.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: cortina: Make RX SKB per-port
The SKB used to assemble packets from fragments in gmacrx() is static local, but the Gemini has two ethernet ports, meaning there can be races between the ports on a bad day if a device is using both.
Make the RX SKB a per-port variable and carry it over between invocations in the port struct instead.
Zero the pointer once we call napigrofrags(), on error (after calling napifreefrags()) or if the port is stopped.
Zero it in some place where not strictly necessary just to emphasize what is going on.
This was found by Sashiko during normal patch review.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: tls: prevent chain-after-chain in plain text SG
Sashiko points out that if end = 0 (start != 0) the current code will create a chain link to content type right after the wrap link:
This would create a chain where the wrap link points directly to another chain link. The scatterlist API sgnext iterator does not recursively resolve consecutive chain links.
meaning this is illegal input to crypto.
The wrapping link is unnecessary if end = 0. end is the entry after the last one used so end = 0 means there's nothing pushed after the wrap:
end start i v v v [ ]...[ ][ d ][ d ][ d ][ d ][rsv for wrap]
Skip the wrapping in this case.
TLS 1.3 can use the "wrapping slot" for it's chaining if end = 0. This avoids the chain-after-chain.
Move the wrap chaining before marking END and chaining off content type, that feels like more logical ordering to me, but should not matter from functional perspective.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mana: Fix TOCTOU double-fetch of hwcmsgid from DMA buffer
In manahwcrxeventhandler(), resp->response.hwcmsgid is read from DMA-coherent memory and bounds-checked, then manahwchandleresp() re-reads the same field from the same DMA buffer for testbit() and pointer arithmetic.
DMA-coherent memory is mapped uncacheable on x86 and is shared, unencrypted, in Confidential VMs (SEV-SNP/TDX), so each load goes directly to host-visible memory. A H/W can modify the value between the check and the use, bypassing the bounds validation.
Fix this by reading hwcmsgid exactly once using READONCE() into a stack-local variable in manahwcrxeventhandler(), and passing the validated value as a parameter to manahwchandleresp().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/rtrs: Fix use-after-free in path file creation cleanup
In the error path of rtrssrvcreatepathfiles(), the sysfs root folders may already have been created and srvpath->kobj may already have been initialized. If a later step fails, the cleanup currently calls kobjectput(&srvpath->kobj) before rtrssrvdestroyoncesysfsrootfolders(srvpath).
kobjectput() may drop the last reference to srvpath->kobj and invoke the release callback, rtrssrvrelease(), which frees srvpath. The following call to rtrssrvdestroyoncesysfsrootfolders(srvpath) then dereferences srvpath internally to access srvpath->srv, resulting in a use-after-free.
This failure path is reached before rtrssrvcreatepathfiles() returns success, so the successful-path lifetime handling is not involved.
Fix this by destroying the sysfs root folders before calling kobjectput(&srvpath->kobj), so srvpath is still valid while the helper accesses it.
This issue was found by a static analysis tool I am developing.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iscsi: Bound iscsiencodetextoutput() appends to rspbuf
iscsiencodetextoutput() concatenates "key=value\0" records into login->rspbuf, an 8192-byte kzalloc(MAXKEYVALUEPAIRS) buffer allocated in iscsitallocloginsetupbuffer(). The three sprintf() call sites in this function (lines 1398, 1411, 1424 in v7.1-rc2) never check the remaining buffer capacity:
length += sprintf(outputbuf, "%s=%s", er->key, er->value); length += 1; outputbuf = textbuf + length;
The 8192-byte ceiling at iscsitargetcheckloginrequest() bounds the input Login PDU payload, but a single PDU can carry up to 2048 minimal four-byte "a=b\0" pairs, each unknown key expanding to a 16-byte "a=NotUnderstood\0" output record via iscsiaddnotunderstoodresponse(). 2048 16 = 32 KiB of output into an 8 KiB buffer, producing a ~24 KiB heap overrun in the kmalloc-8k slab.
The fix introduces a static iscsiencodetextrecord() helper that uses snprintf() with a per-call bounds check against the remaining buffer, and threads a u32 textbufsize parameter through iscsiencodetextoutput(). Both call sites in iscsitargethandlecsgzero() (PHASESECURITY) and iscsitargethandlecsgone() (PHASEOPERATIONAL) pass MAXKEYVALUEPAIRS. On overflow the encoder logs the condition, calls iscsireleaseextraresponses() to drop queued records, and returns -1; both caller sites now emit ISCSISTATUSCLSINITIATORERR / ISCSILOGINSTATUSINITERR via iscsittxloginrsp() before returning, so the initiator sees an explicit failed-login response rather than a silent connection drop. (Prior to this patch only the PHASEOPERATIONAL caller did that; the PHASESECURITY caller is converted to the same shape.)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iscsi: Validate CHAPR length before base64 decode
chapservercomputehash() allocates clientdigest as kzalloc(chap->digestsize) and then, for BASE64-encoded responses, passes chapr directly to chapbase64decode() without checking whether the input length could produce more than digestsize bytes of output.
chapbase64decode() writes to the destination unconditionally as long as there is input to consume. With MAXRESPONSELENGTH set to 128 and the "0b" prefix stripped by extractparam(), up to 127 base64 characters can reach the decoder. 127 characters decode to 95 bytes. For SHA-256 (digestsize=32) this overflows clientdigest by 63 bytes; for MD5 (digestsize=16) the overflow is 79 bytes.
The length check at line 344 fires after the write has already happened.
The HEX branch in the same switch statement already validates the length up front. Apply the same approach to the BASE64 branch: strip trailing base64 padding characters, then reject any input whose data length exceeds DIVROUNDUP(digestsize 4, 3) before calling the decoder.
Stripping trailing '=' before the comparison handles both padded and unpadded encodings. chapbase64decode() already returns early on '=', so the full original string is still passed to the decoder unchanged.
The mutual CHAP path decodes CHAPC into initiatorchgbinhex, which is kzalloc(CHAPCHALLENGESTRLEN). extractparam() caps initiatorchg at CHAPCHALLENGESTRLEN characters, so at most CHAPCHALLENGESTRLEN-1 base64 characters reach the decoder. The maximum decoded size, DIVROUNDUP((CHAPCHALLENGESTRLEN-1) 3, 4), is less than CHAPCHALLENGESTRLEN, so no overflow is possible there. A comment is added at the call site to document this.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: skmsg: preserve sg.copy across SG transforms
The skmsg sg.copy bitmap is part of the scatterlist entry ownership state. A set bit tells skmsgcomputedatapointers() not to expose the entry through writable BPF ctx->data. This protects entries backed by pages that are not private to the skmsg, such as splice-backed file page-cache pages.
Several skmsg transform paths move, copy, split, or compact msg->sg.data[] entries without moving the matching sg.copy bit. This can make an externally backed entry arrive at a new slot with a clear copy bit. A later SKMSG verdict can then expose sgvirt(sge) as writable ctx->data and BPF stores can modify the original page cache.
Keep sg.copy synchronized with sg.data[] whenever entries are transferred, shifted, split, or copied into a new skmsg. Clear the bit when an entry is replaced by a newly allocated private page or freed. This covers the BPF pull/push/pop helpers, skmsgshiftleft/right(), skmsgxfer(), and tlssplitopenrecord(), including the partial tail entry created during TLS open-record splitting.
gcov: use atomic counter updates to fix concurrent access crashes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pNFS: Fix use-after-free in pnfsupdatelayout()
When hitting the NFSLAYOUTRETURN branch in pnfsupdatelayout(), the code calls pnfspreparetoretrylayoutget(lo). If it succeeds, pnfsputlayouthdr(lo) is called before tracepnfsupdatelayout(), which still references 'lo'. This results in a use-after-free when the tracepoint accesses lo's fields.
Fix this by moving the tracepoint call before pnfsputlayouthdr(lo).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Fix SECINFONONAME decode error cleanup
nfsd4decodesecinfononame() currently initializes sinexp after decoding sinstyle. If the XDR stream is truncated, the decoder returns nfserrbadxdr before sinexp is initialized.
Since commit 3fdc54646234 ("NFSD: Reduce amount of struct nfsd4compoundargs that needs clearing"), the inline iops array is not cleared between RPC calls. A failed SECINFONONAME decode can therefore leave sinexp holding stale union contents from a previous operation.
The error response path still invokes nfsd4secinfononamerelease(), which calls expput() on a non-NULL sinexp.
Initialize sinexp before the first failable decode step, matching nfsd4decodesecinfo().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: 8250dw: unregister 8250 port if clknotifierregister() fails
dw8250probe() registers the 8250 port via serial8250register8250port() and then, if the device has a clock, registers a clock notifier. If clknotifierregister() fails, probe returns the error but leaves the 8250 port registered. The matching serial8250unregisterport() lives in dw8250remove(), which is not called when probe fails, so the port slot stays occupied until the device is rebound or the system is rebooted. The devm-allocated driver data is freed while the port still references it (via the saved privatedata and serialin/serialout callbacks), so any access to that port slot before a rebind is a use-after-free hazard.
Unregister the port on the clknotifierregister() error path.

net: ipv6: fix NOREF dst use in seg6 and rpl lwtunnels
seg6inputcore() and rplinput() call ip6routeinput() which sets a NOREF dst on the skb, then pass it to dstcachesetip6() invoking dsthold() unconditionally. On PREEMPTRT, ksoftirqd is preemptible and a higher-priority task can release the underlying pcpurt between the lookup and the caching through a concurrent FIB lookup on a shared nexthop. Simplified race sequence:
ksoftirqd/X higher-prio task (same CPU X) ----------- -------------------------------- seg6inputcore(,skb)/rplinput(skb) dstcacheget() -> miss ip6routeinput(skb) -> ip6polroute(,skb,flags) [RT6LOOKUPFDSTNOREF in flags] -> FIB lookup resolves fib6nh [nhid=N route] -> rt6makepcpuroute() [creates pcpurt, refcount=1] pcpurt->sernum = fib6sernum [fib6sernum=W] -> cmpxchg(fib6nh.rt6ipcpu, NULL, pcpurt) [slot was empty, store succeeds] -> skbdstsetnoref(skb, dst) [dst is pcpurt, refcount still 1]
rtgenidbumpipv6() -> bumps fib6sernum [fib6sernum from W to Z] ip6routeoutput() -> ip6polroute() -> FIB lookup resolves fib6nh [nhid=N] -> rt6getpcpuroute() pcpurt->sernum != fib6sernum [W <> Z, stale] -> prev = xchg(rt6ipcpu, NULL) -> dstrelease(prev) [prev is pcpurt, refcount 1->0, dead]
dst = skbdst(skb) [dst is the dead pcpurt] dstcachesetip6(dst) -> dsthold() on dead dst -> WARN / use-after-free
For the race to occur, ksoftirqd must be preemptible (PREEMPTRT without PREEMPTRTNEEDSBHLOCK) and a concurrent task must be able to release the pcpurt. Shared nexthop objects provide such a path, as two routes pointing to the same nhid share the same fib6nh and its rt6ipcpu entry.
Fix seg6inputcore() and rplinput() by calling skbdstforce() after ip6routeinput() to force the NOREF dst into a refcounted one before caching. The output path is not affected as ip6routeoutput() already returns a refcounted dst.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/rxe: Validate pad and ICRC before payloadsize() in rxercv
rxercv() currently checks only that the incoming packet is at least headersize(pkt) bytes long before payloadsize() is used.
However, payloadsize() subtracts both the attacker-controlled BTH pad field and RXEICRCSIZE from pkt->paylen:
payloadsize = pkt->paylen - offset[RXEPAYLOAD] - bthpad(pkt) - RXEICRCSIZE
This means a short packet can still make payloadsize() underflow even if it includes enough bytes for the fixed headers. Simply requiring headersize(pkt) + RXEICRCSIZE is not sufficient either, because a packet with a forged non-zero BTH pad can still leave payloadsize() negative and pass an underflowed value to later receive-path users.
Fix this by validating pkt->paylen against the full minimum length required by payloadsize(): headersize(pkt) + bthpad(pkt) + RXEICRCSIZE.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/display/dpmst: Add protection against 0 vcpi
When releasing a timeslot there is a slight chance we may end up with the wrong payload mask due to overflow if the delayeddestroywork ends up coming into play after a DP 2.1 monitor gets disconnected which causes vcpi to become 0 then we try to make the payload = ~BIT(vcpi - 1) which is a negative shift. VCPI id should never really be 0 hence skip changing the payload mask if VCPI is 0.
