A race condition was found in the Linux kernel's RxRPC network protocol, within the processing of RxRPC bundles. This issue results from the lack of proper locking when performing operations on an object. This may allow an attacker to escalate privileges and execute arbitrary code in the context of the kernel.
A flaw was found in the x86 KVM subsystem in kvmstealtimesetpreempted in arch/x86/kvm/x86.c in the Linux kernel. Unprivileged guest users can compromise the guest kernel because TLB flush operations are mishandled in certain KVMVCPUPREEMPTED situations.
A double-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel in the emsusbstartxmit function. This flaw allows an attacker to create a memory leak and corrupt the underlying data structure by calling free more than once.
In the Linux kernel through 6.3.1, a use-after-free in Netfilter nftables when processing batch requests can be abused to perform arbitrary read and write operations on kernel memory. Unprivileged local users can obtain root privileges. This occurs because anonymous sets are mishandled.
A flaw was found in the fixed buffer registration code for iouring (iosqebufferregister in iouring/rsrc.c) in the Linux kernel that allows out-of-bounds access to physical memory beyond the end of the buffer. This flaw enables full local privilege escalation.
A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux Kernel iouring subsystem can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation.
Both ioinstallfixedfile and its callers call fput in a file in case of an error, causing a reference underflow which leads to a use-after-free vulnerability.
We recommend upgrading past commit 9d94c04c0db024922e886c9fd429659f22f48ea4.
A use after free vulnerability was found in preparetorelocate in fs/btrfs/relocation.c in btrfs in the Linux Kernel. This possible flaw can be triggered by calling btrfsioctlbalance() before calling btrfsioctldefrag().
In rndisqueryoid in drivers/net/wireless/rndiswlan.c in the Linux kernel through 6.1.5, there is an integer overflow in an addition.
A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel console driver when using the copy-paste buffer. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A NULL pointer dereference may occur while a slip driver is in progress to detach in sltxtimeout in drivers/net/slip/slip.c. This issue could allow an attacker to crash the system or leak internal kernel information.
A use-after-free flaw was found in r592remove in drivers/memstick/host/r592.c in media access in Linux Kernel. This flaw could allow a local attacker to crash the system at device disconnect. This vulnerability could even lead to a kernel information leak problem.

In the Linux kernel 6.0.8, there is an out-of-bounds read in ntfsattrfind in fs/ntfs/attrib.c.
A flaw use after free found in Linux Kernel mm/mremap memory address space accounting source code. If race condition happens between rmap walk and mremap, this can result in stale TLB entries.

A use-after-free flaw was found in usbsgcancel in drivers/usb/core/message.c in USB core subsystem. This flaw could allow a local attacker with special user privilege (or root) to crash the system due to a race problem in scatter-gather cancellation and transfer completion in usbsgwait. This vulnerability can even lead to a kernel information leak problem .
Here usbsgcancel() does not take any reference to the transfer and there is nothing to prevent the URBs from being deallocated while the routine is trying to use them.
Taking a reference by incrementing the transfer's io->count field while the cancellation is in progress and decrementing it afterwards can be way to address this. The transfer's URBs are not deallocated until io->complete is triggered, which happens when io->count reaches zero. ~~~ BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in atomicread include/asm-generic/atomic-instrumented.h:26 [inline] BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in usbhcdunlinkurb+0x5f/0x170 drivers/usb/core/hcd.c:1607 Read of size 4 at addr ffff888065379610 by task kworker/u4:1/27 ~~~

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 5.6.7. xdpumemreg in net/xdp/xdpumem.c has an out-of-bounds write (by a user with the CAPNETADMIN capability) because of a lack of headroom validation.
An array overflow was discovered in mt76addfragment in drivers/net/wireless/mediatek/mt76/dma.c in the Linux kernel before 5.5.10, aka CID-b102f0c522cf. An oversized packet with too many rx fragments can corrupt memory of adjacent pages.
