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:

xfrm: fix stale skb->prev after async crypto steals a GSO segment

skbgsosegment() leaves the segment list head with ->prev pointing at the last segment, an invariant validatexmitskblist() relies on when it sets its tail pointer (tail = skb->prev).

When validatexmitxfrm() walks a GSO list and some segments are stolen by async crypto (->xmit() returns -EINPROGRESS), those segments are unlinked from the list but the head ->prev is never updated. If the last segment is the one stolen, the returned head still has ->prev pointing at it, even though it is now owned by the crypto engine and may be freed. validatexmitskblist() later does tail->next = skb, writing through that stale pointer -- a use-after-free.

Repoint skb->prev at the last retained segment before returning.
