Vulnerabilities

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: LoongArch: Avoid preempt count underflow without probe LoongArch uses break 11 for the breakpoint placed after an instruction that Kprobes executes out of line. Since userspace can issue the same break instruction, do_bp() can reach kprobe_singlestep_handler() when there is no current probe. The handler actually returns false in this case, but it first calls preempt_enable_no_resched(). The corresponding preempt_disable() is done by kprobe_breakpoint_handler() on a real Kprobe hit, so it has not run here. As a result, an ordinary userspace breakpoint (code 11) underflows the current task's preempt count. This also makes in_interrupt() return true until the task schedules. One visible consequence is the socket cgroup attribution: cgroup_sk_alloc() treats the allocation as interrupt context and assigns the socket to the root cgroup. A socket opened from the SIGTRAP handler can then avoid a BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE policy attached to the task's own cgroup. Return as soon as kprobe_running() reports no active probe. The same check has appeared in [PATCH v10 2/4] of the original LoongArch Kprobes series, but was dropped before the feature reached mainline.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: airspy: use vb2_video_unregister_device() on disconnect to fix NULL deref airspy_disconnect() clears s->udev under v4l2_lock, but airspy_stop_streaming() unconditionally calls airspy_ctrl_msg() and airspy_free_stream_bufs() afterwards. If a streaming user closes the device after disconnect, stop_streaming() runs and dereferences the NULL s->udev: airspy_stop_streaming() airspy_ctrl_msg(s, CMD_RECEIVER_MODE, 0, 0, NULL, 0) usb_sndctrlpipe(s->udev, 0) /* NULL deref */ airspy_free_stream_bufs(s) usb_free_coherent(s->udev, ...) /* NULL deref */ The airspy driver uses vb2_fop_release() in its file_operations, so replace video_unregister_device(&s->vdev) with vb2_video_unregister_device(&s->vdev) and move it before clearing s->udev. vb2_video_unregister_device() releases the vb2 queue, which synchronously runs airspy_stop_streaming() if streaming is active, so the URBs, coherent DMA stream buffers and the hardware stop control message all execute while s->udev is still valid. vb2_video_unregister_device() locks vdev->queue->lock (vb_queue_lock) internally, and stop_streaming() locks v4l2_lock, so the previous outer mutex_lock(&s->vb_queue_lock) / mutex_lock(&s->v4l2_lock) pair around the unregister sequence would self-deadlock and has been removed. A short v4l2_lock critical section around s->udev = NULL remains so any ioctl path that still holds the file descriptor sees coherent state. Issue identified by automated review of the INV-003 series at https://sashiko.dev/

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: cec: core: Fix kmemleak due to missed rc_free_device() call The commit dccc0c3ddf8f ("media: rc: fix race between unregister and urb/irq callbacks") removed the implicit call to rc_free_device() from rc_unregister_device(). However, the commit missed to remove the NULL assignment of adap->rc that is now causing rc_free_device() to never be called on an allocated rc device. kmemleak reports following after e.g. dw-hdmi unbind: unreferenced object 0xffff00010ac10000 (size 4096): comm "kworker/u16:1", pid 39, jiffies 4294897739 hex dump (first 32 bytes): 20 23 4b 0a 01 00 ff ff 08 00 c1 0a 01 00 ff ff #K............. 08 00 c1 0a 01 00 ff ff 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ backtrace (crc e11baccc): kmemleak_alloc+0x38/0x44 __kmalloc_cache_noprof+0x4a8/0x5e0 rc_allocate_device+0x48/0x2a0 cec_allocate_adapter+0x3ac/0x800 dw_hdmi_cec_probe+0x264/0x634 platform_probe+0xc0/0x188 really_probe+0x4a4/0x8e0 __driver_probe_device+0x2f8/0x440 driver_probe_device+0x60/0x160 __device_attach_driver+0x1a0/0x2a0 bus_for_each_drv+0x100/0x1a0 __device_attach+0x174/0x350 device_initial_probe+0x90/0xb0 bus_probe_device+0x4c/0x120 device_add+0xdec/0x116c platform_device_add+0x354/0x598 Remove the assignment of adap->rc to NULL to let cec_delete_adapter() free the allocated rc device after last user of the cec device exits to fix the kmemleak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: cec: disable delayed work before freeing an interrupted transmit cec_transmit_msg_fh() drops adap->lock to wait for a blocking transmit in wait_for_completion_killable(). If that wait is interrupted by a signal, cancel_delayed_work_sync() can run before the CEC kthread arms the reply timeout via schedule_delayed_work(&data->work) in cec_transmit_done_ts(). The work is then armed after the cancel, and the data is freed with its delayed_work still pending: ODEBUG: free active (active state 0) object: ... hint: cec_wait_timeout Use disable_delayed_work_sync(): it cancels the work and disables it, so the later schedule_delayed_work() becomes a no-op and the work cannot be re-armed. The data is freed right after, so it need not be re-enabled.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: cec: extron-da-hd-4k-plus: add sanity check Add check to prevent overflowing msg.msg[] in case the incoming data is malformed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: cec: Serialize exclusive follower delivery cec_receive_notify() reads the exclusive follower pointer without the adapter lock. Serialize the no-follower check and message delivery against mode changes and release.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: cedrus: fix memory leak in cedrus_init_ctrls() In cedrus_init_ctrls(), the V4L2 control handler is initialized before allocating memory for ctx->ctrls. If this allocation fails, the function returns -ENOMEM without freeing the previously allocated handler resources, leading to a memory leak. Fix this by calling v4l2_ctrl_handler_free() on the ctx->ctrls allocation failure path. The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still present in v7.1.1. An x86_64 allyesconfig build showed no new warnings. As we do not have an Allwinner SoC or board with a Cedrus VPU available to test with, no runtime testing was able to be performed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: cobalt: Avoid freeing ALSA private data twice snd_cobalt_card_create() stores cobsc in sc->private_data and installs snd_cobalt_card_private_free() as sc->private_free. From that point, snd_card_free(sc) releases cobsc through the ALSA card cleanup path. If cobalt_alsa_init() fails after snd_cobalt_card_create(), the err_exit_free path calls snd_card_free(sc) and then kfree(cobsc). That second free releases the same object again. Remove the explicit kfree(cobsc) and leave ownership with the ALSA card. 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: media: cx231xx: reject geometry changes while the VBI queue is busy vidioc_s_fmt_vid_cap() and vidioc_s_std() change the device-wide dev->width / dev->norm but only refuse the change when the *video* queue (dev->vidq) is busy. The VBI queue (dev->vbiq) shares that same geometry: cx231xx_init_vbi_isoc() latches dma_q->lines_per_field from dev->norm, the VBI videobuf2 plane is sized from dev->width / dev->norm in vbi_queue_setup() and vbi_buf_prepare(), and cx231xx_do_vbi_copy() then recomputes the destination offset from the *live* dev->width and the latched lines_per_field on every URB completion: offset = lines_completed * (dev->width current_field == 2) offset += dev->width * 2 * dma_q->lines_per_field; memcpy(plane + offset, p_buffer, lencopy); Because the VBI node shares video_ioctl_ops with the video node, an application can size a small VBI plane (REQBUFS/QBUF with a small width, or with the NTSC standard), then enlarge dev->width (or switch dev->norm to PAL) through the video node while the VBI stream is running -- the change is allowed because only dev->vidq is checked -- and let the device deliver a field-2 VBI payload. cx231xx_do_vbi_copy() now computes the offset with the larger geometry and memcpy()s past the end of the smaller plane that was already allocated, a heap out-of-bounds write whose offset is attacker-chosen and whose contents come from the device. The per-field guard in cx231xx_copy_vbi_line() does not help: it bounds the copy against the latched lines_per_field, not the plane's real capacity, and vb2 does not re-run buf_prepare() for an already prepared buffer. Refuse the format/standard change when the VBI queue is busy as well, so the geometry cannot change underneath an allocated VBI buffer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: cx23885: cancel NetUP CI work before teardown netup_ci_exit() frees a netup_ci_state while its work item, netup_read_ci_status(), may still be pending or running on the system workqueue. The worker obtains the state with container_of() and dereferences it, so it must not outlive the state. netup_ci_init() queues the initial status read, and CI GPIO interrupts subsequently queue the same work from netup_ci_slot_status(). During remove, cx23885_finidev() calls free_irq() before the CI device is unregistered. free_irq() prevents further IRQ handlers from running, but does not drain work queued previously, so the worker can run after netup_ci_exit() frees the state. Call cancel_work_sync() before dvb_ca_en50221_release() and kfree(). This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: em28xx: defer audio-only extension registration The audio-only path registers extensions while probing the primary device. For a dual-TS board, this happens before dev_next is created. The duplicate device inherits is_audio_only and is then independently inserted into em28xx_devlist. The list is intended to contain only primary devices: extension operations reach the secondary device through dev_next. The independently linked secondary can be freed during disconnect while its list node remains reachable, resulting in a use-after-free. Defer audio-only extension registration to the module-request work item. It runs only after probing has completed construction of the optional secondary device, so only the primary is registered and extension callbacks reach the secondary through dev_next.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: em28xx: fix use-after-free of dev_next->devlist on disconnect When a device with has_dual_ts=1 is probed and the is_audio_only path is taken, both dev and dev->dev_next are added to the global em28xx_devlist via em28xx_init_extension(). However, during disconnect, em28xx_close_extension(dev) only calls list_del(&dev->devlist), leaving dev->dev_next->devlist still linked in the global list. When dev_next is subsequently freed via kref_put(), its devlist entry becomes a dangling pointer in em28xx_devlist. The next device probe that calls em28xx_init_extension() triggers a list corruption BUG when list_add_tail detects the freed node. This bug was exposed by commit a368ecde8a50 ("USB: core: Fix duplicate endpoint bug by clearing reserved bits in the descriptor") which clears reserved bits in bEndpointAddress during endpoint parsing. This causes fuzzed endpoint addresses like 0xf3 to be normalized to 0x83, which em28xx interprets as a vendor audio endpoint, enabling the is_audio_only + has_dual_ts code path that was previously unreachable with such descriptors. Fix this by removing dev->dev_next->devlist from the global list in em28xx_close_extension() before the device is freed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: go7007: defer the ALSA v4l2 put until card release go7007_snd_init() already takes a v4l2_device reference for the ALSA side, but go7007_snd_remove() drops it immediately after calling snd_card_free_when_closed(). That is too early when a userspace process still has the capture PCM open. The ALSA card and its PCM callbacks remain alive until the last file is closed, so the release path can still reach struct go7007 through pcm->private_data and call go7007_snd_hw_free() after the V4L2 release path has freed the object. Move the matching v4l2_device_put() to the ALSA card private_free callback so the existing ALSA reference covers the whole deferred card lifetime.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: i2c: imx415: Release runtime PM reference on VBLANK error The VBLANK path returned immediately when programming VMAX failed after pm_runtime_get_if_in_use() had taken a runtime PM reference. Break out of the switch instead so the common pm_runtime_put() path is used.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: i2c: ov02a10: fix endpoint parsing use-after-free The ov02a10_check_hwcfg() function calls fwnode_handle_put(ep) immediately after allocating and parsing the endpoint. However, it subsequently calls fwnode_property_read_u32() using the same 'ep' handle, leading to a potential use-after-free. Additionally, reading the optional 'ovti,mipi-clock-voltage' property used to overwrite the 'ret' variable. If the property was missing, 'ret' would become negative, and this failure code would be incorrectly returned at the end of the function, causing probe to fail entirely. Fix the use-after-free by moving fwnode_property_read_u32() before the endpoint is parsed and freed. Avoid the error leak by not assigning the result of fwnode_property_read_u32() to 'ret'.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: i2c: ov7740: fix use-after-destroy in remove The ov7740_remove() function had a severe teardown order bug where it destroyed the driver's mutex before freeing the V4L2 control handler which relies on that mutex, leading to a use-after-destroy kernel panic. Furthermore, the driver explicitly called v4l2_ctrl_handler_free() and mutex_destroy() sequentially, but then called ov7740_free_controls() which invokes both of them a second time, resulting in a double-free. This patch fixes the issue by unregistering the subdevice first, and relying exclusively on ov7740_free_controls() to safely tear down the mutex and control handler in the correct order.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: intel/ipu6: fix async notifier cleanup leak on parse error isys_notifier_init() calls v4l2_async_nf_init() and then adds fwnode remote subdevs in a loop with v4l2_async_nf_add_fwnode_remote(). If an endpoint parse or add fails partway through the loop, it jumps to err_parse and returns without calling v4l2_async_nf_cleanup(), leaking every v4l2_async_connection already added to the notifier's waiting list. The register-failure path just below already cleans up correctly, and the caller only tears the notifier down (isys_notifier_cleanup()) once isys_notifier_init() has returned success. Clean up the notifier on the parse error path too.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: platform: mtk-mdp3: Fix SCP device refcounting mdp_probe() first tries to get the SCP handle with scp_get(). When that fails, it falls back to looking up the SCP platform device with __get_pdev_by_id() and then reads its driver data. The fallback lookup returns the platform device with a reference, just like scp_get() does. However, the fallback path currently drops that reference immediately after platform_get_drvdata(). The driver later still calls scp_put(mdp->scp) unconditionally from the probe error path and from mdp_video_device_release(), which drops the SCP device reference again. Keep the fallback reference until the existing scp_put() call, so that the fallback path follows the same ownership rules as the scp_get() path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: platform: mtk-mdp3: fix NULL deref on failed SCP lookup Add the missing sanity check after looking up the SCP to avoid dereferencing a NULL-pointer in case its driver has not yet been bound.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: rc: sunxi-cir: Unregister rc device on probe failure After rc_register_device() succeeds, later probe failures must undo the registration with rc_unregister_device(). The current error path jumps to the allocation cleanup label and only calls rc_free_device(), leaving the rc device registration and resources created by rc_register_device() behind. Add a registered-device unwind label for the IRQ lookup, IRQ request, and hardware initialization failure paths. Keep rc_free_device() for failures before rc_register_device() succeeds.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: rkvdec: hevc: guard INTER_REF_PIC_SET_PRED index underflow st_ref_pic_set_prediction() computes the reference RPS index as st_rps_idx - (delta_idx_minus1 + 1) per HEVC spec equation 7-59. Both operands are u8, so when delta_idx_minus1 + 1 exceeds the current index the subtraction wraps and the subsequent array access at calculated_rps_st_sets[ref_rps_idx] reads far out of bounds. A userspace V4L2 client that can open the RKVDEC m2m decoder can submit an EXT_SPS_ST_RPS control with INTER_REF_PIC_SET_PRED set and delta_idx_minus1 crafted to trigger the underflow. Reject the entry early when the reference index would underflow.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: rtl2832_sdr: use vb2_video_unregister_device() on remove to fix DMA leak rtl2832_sdr_remove() runs on USB disconnect and clears dev->udev to NULL before any pending streaming teardown has run. When user space later closes its file descriptor, vb2 calls rtl2832_sdr_stop_streaming() which in turn calls rtl2832_sdr_free_stream_bufs(). That helper releases each coherent buffer with: usb_free_coherent(dev->udev, dev->buf_size, dev->buf_list[dev->buf_num], dev->dma_addr[dev->buf_num]); usb_free_coherent() returns immediately when its dev argument is NULL, so every DMA stream buffer that was live at disconnect is silently leaked. The URBs allocated in rtl2832_sdr_alloc_urbs() outlive the device for the same reason. The rtl2832_sdr driver uses vb2_fop_release() in its file_operations, so replace video_unregister_device(&dev->vdev) with vb2_video_unregister_device(&dev->vdev) and move it before clearing dev->udev. vb2_video_unregister_device() releases the vb2 queue, which synchronously runs rtl2832_sdr_stop_streaming() if streaming is active, so URBs and coherent DMA stream buffers are freed while dev->udev is still valid. vb2_video_unregister_device() locks vdev->queue->lock (vb_queue_lock) internally, and stop_streaming() locks v4l2_lock, so the previous outer mutex_lock(&dev->vb_queue_lock) / mutex_lock(&dev->v4l2_lock) pair around the unregister sequence would self-deadlock and has been removed. A short v4l2_lock critical section around dev->udev = NULL remains so any ioctl path that still holds the file descriptor sees coherent state. Issue identified by automated review of the INV-003 series at https://sashiko.dev/

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: rtl2832_sdr: release URBs and stream buffers on start_streaming() failure rtl2832_sdr_start_streaming() calls rtl2832_sdr_alloc_stream_bufs(), rtl2832_sdr_alloc_urbs() and rtl2832_sdr_submit_urbs() in sequence and shares a single err: label that only unlocks the mutex and returns. When alloc_urbs() succeeds but submit_urbs() fails, or when alloc_urbs() itself returns -ENOMEM after alloc_stream_bufs() has already succeeded, the URBs and/or the coherent DMA stream buffers stay allocated while streaming reports failure to vb2. Two latent defects follow on the next VIDIOC_STREAMON: 1) rtl2832_sdr_alloc_stream_bufs() unconditionally resets dev->buf_num to 0 and overwrites dev->buf_list[]/dev->dma_addr[], permanently leaking the coherent DMA memory allocated by the previous attempt. 2) rtl2832_sdr_alloc_urbs() never resets dev->urbs_initialized and only increments it. After a second successful pass urbs_initialized can exceed MAX_BULK_BUFS, so the subsequent rtl2832_sdr_free_urbs() walks from urbs_initialized - 1 down to 0 and reads past the end of dev->urb_list[], passing garbage pointers to usb_free_urb(). Mirror the teardown that stop_streaming() already performs: on the error path call rtl2832_sdr_free_urbs() and rtl2832_sdr_free_stream_bufs() before unlocking. Both helpers are idempotent (free_urbs kills and zeros urbs_initialized; free_stream_bufs is gated on URB_BUF and clears the buf_num counter), so partial-failure paths and the no-allocation paths remain safe. Issue identified by automated review of the INV-003 series at https://sashiko.dev/

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: s2255: bound JPEG frame size before copying into the buffer s2255_fillbuff() memcpy()s vc->jpg_size bytes of a captured JPEG/MJPEG frame into the vb2 plane. vc->jpg_size is taken verbatim from the S2255_MARKER_FRAME header the device sends (pdword[4] in save_frame()) and, unlike the frame payload length just above it, is never bounded: payload = le32_to_cpu(pdword[3]); if (payload > vc->req_image_size) /* payload is checked ... */ return -EINVAL; vc->pkt_size = payload; vc->jpg_size = le32_to_cpu(pdword[4]); /* ... jpg_size is not */ A malicious or malfunctioning device can therefore report a jpg_size larger than the destination vb2 plane, and the memcpy() writes past it. jpg_size is a signed int, so a value with the top bit set also turns into a huge length. Reject a frame whose jpg_size is negative or exceeds the plane size before copying it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: s2255: check firmware size before reading trailing marker s2255_probe() reads a 4-byte marker and version from the last 8 bytes of the firmware blob (fw->data[fw_size - 8] and [fw_size - 4]). If the firmware file is shorter than 8 bytes, fw_size - 8 underflows and the access reads out of bounds. Validate the firmware size before indexing.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: saa7164: fix cleanup on resource allocation failure saa7164_dev_setup() adds the device to the global saa7164_devlist before requesting the PCI BAR memory regions. If get_resources() fails, saa7164_dev_setup() decrements the device count and returns an error, but leaves the device on saa7164_devlist. The probe error path then frees the device, leaving a dangling entry on the global list. Reuse the existing MMIO mapping error path to remove the device from saa7164_devlist and decrement the device count before returning. Also release BAR0 if it was successfully requested but the BAR2 request fails.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: tda18250: fix possible integer overflow Integer overflow may occur, when variable exp equals to zero. Result of shift 1 << (exp - 1) may then leads to undefined behavior.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: ti: vpe: quiesce overflow recovery before freeing streams The VIP overflow recovery worker is armed from the hardirq handler when a FIFO overflow is detected, and the list-complete path looks the stream up through the VPDMA list private pointer. Both keep touching stream, port and device state; the recovery worker also resets the parser and VPDMA, repopulates the descriptor list, and re-enables the per-list IRQs. vip_stop_streaming() masks and clears the per-list IRQs, but it neither synchronizes the hardirq handler nor disables recovery_work. An overflow IRQ that has already queued recovery_work, or a list-complete IRQ in flight when the stream is torn down, can therefore still dereference the stream after its resources are released: the descriptor list is freed by vip_release_stream() on file release, and the stream itself by free_stream() on unbind/remove. Drain the recovery worker and the IRQ handler at both teardown points through a shared vip_quiesce_stream() helper, before any stream-owned resource is released. disable_work_sync() cancels pending recovery_work, drains a running instance, and raises its disable depth, so a subsequent schedule_work() issued by a racing IRQ handler is rejected at the workqueue scheduler: recovery_work cannot be requeued after disable_work_sync() takes effect. The worker may still re-enable the per-list IRQs before disable_work_sync() returns; disable_irqs() then masks those sources and synchronize_irq() waits for any in-flight handler that still dereferences stream state. In vip_stop_streaming() the helper runs before the parser is stopped, since a worker drained by disable_work_sync() may re-enable the parser before exiting and would otherwise undo the stop. recovery_work is created disabled and enabled in vip_start_streaming() before IRQs, pairing the enable with the teardown disable across the streaming lifecycle. This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool and confirmed by manual code review.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: v4l2-async: avoid deleting unlinked ASC entry on link error v4l2_async_match_notify() creates ancillary media links before adding asc->asc_subdev_entry to sd->asc_list. If ancillary link creation fails, the function jumps to err_call_unbind while asc_subdev_entry has not been linked yet. Async connections are zero-allocated, so the list entry still has NULL next and prev pointers on this path. Calling list_del() on it can therefore dereference NULL instead of returning the original link creation error. Do not delete asc_subdev_entry from err_call_unbind. There is no list insertion to undo on this path; the bound callback and sub-device registration are the operations that need to be rolled back.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: v4l2-ctrls: validate HEVC EXT SPS RPS counts The HEVC SPS control carries the short-term and long-term RPS counts that decoder drivers use to walk the matching EXT SPS dynamic arrays. Reject SPS values that exceed the HEVC limits of 64 short-term sets and 32 long-term references so drivers cannot later index beyond those controls. Also reject EXT SPS ST RPS entries whose negative or positive picture counts exceed the 16-entry arrays, or whose combined delta-POC count exceeds the HEVC DPB maximum.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: v4l2-fwnode: Fix fwnode leak in v4l2_fwnode_parse_link In v4l2_fwnode_parse_link(), the remote endpoint fwnode reference is acquired using fwnode_graph_get_remote_endpoint(). This reference is properly released in the error paths, but it is leaked on the success path. Add the missing fwnode_handle_put() before returning 0 to prevent the reference leak. [Sakari Ailus: Fix subject prefix and coding style a little.]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: video-i2c: fix kthread error pointer left in kthread_vid_cap on failure kthread_run() returns an ERR_PTR on failure, not NULL. When start_streaming() fails, data->kthread_vid_cap is left holding this error pointer instead of being cleared. This causes two subsequent bugs: 1. A future call to start_streaming() sees a non-NULL kthread_vid_cap and returns 0 (success) immediately, without actually starting the capture thread. 2. A call to stop_streaming() checks 'kthread_vid_cap == NULL' which is false for an error pointer, and proceeds to call kthread_stop() on the error pointer, leading to a kernel crash. Fix this by resetting kthread_vid_cap to NULL on failure before jumping to the error path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: zoran: Avoid freeing a registered video_device twice zoran_init_video_device() installs zoran_vdev_release() as the video_device release callback through zoran_template. After video_register_device() succeeds, video_unregister_device() drops the registered video_device reference and the V4L2 core eventually invokes that release callback, which kfree()s the video_device. zoran_exit_video_devices() called video_unregister_device() and then kfree(zr->video_dev), so device teardown could free the same video_device twice. Remove the direct kfree() and clear the cached pointer after unregistering. The pre-registration failure path keeps its manual free because the video_device was not registered there. 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: media: qcom: iris: use disable_irq() during power-off The IRQ is registered as a threaded IRQ. Using disable_irq_nosync() in iris_vpu_power_off() does not wait for an already queued threaded IRQ handler to complete before returning. As a result, a threaded IRQ handler may still run after the VPU has been powered down and access hardware registers after power-off. Replace disable_irq_nosync() with disable_irq() so the power-off path waits for any in-flight threaded IRQ handler to complete before returning.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: chips-media: wave5: Add timeout while stop_streaming When stop_streaming is called, an infinite loop may occur in some cases. Add a bounded poll of the queue status: loop until the queues drain, sleeping briefly between polls, and bail out once VPU_DEC_STOP_TIMEOUT elapses.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: chips-media: wave5: Defer job_finish() only when a DEC_PIC was queued Decoder instances sharing a VPU also share one v4l2_m2m job slot, released when the running context calls v4l2_m2m_job_finish(). While draining, device_run() defers job_finish() once EOS is sent (sent_eos), expecting a later finish_decode() (from a DEC_PIC completion IRQ) to release the slot. But the m2m core checks job_ready() only when a job is queued, not when it is dispatched. A job queued while draining can run after finish_decode() has already moved the instance to STOP and sent EOS. device_run() then runs in STOP, issues no DEC_PIC, yet still skips job_finish() - so no IRQ, no finish_decode(), and the shared slot is leaked, stalling every instance. With several v4l2h264dec instances in parallel, GStreamer hangs at EOS. Track whether the run actually queued a DEC_PIC (cmd_issued) and defer job_finish() only then. Otherwise finish the job immediately

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: chips-media: wave5: Resume device before setting EOS flag Setting the EOS flag talks to the firmware via send_firmware_command(), which accesses VPU registers. Both the STREAMOFF path (wave5_vpu_dec_job_abort()) and the V4L2_DEC_CMD_STOP path (wave5_vpu_dec_stop()) can run while the device is runtime suspended, so those register accesses hit powered-down hardware and the SoC raises an asynchronous SError, panicking the kernel: SError Interrupt on CPU3, code 0x00000000bf000000 -- SError send_firmware_command+0x2c/0x160 [wave5] wave5_vpu_dec_set_bitstream_flag+0x6c/0x80 [wave5] wave5_vpu_dec_update_bitstream_buffer+0x80/0xec [wave5] wave5_vpu_dec_job_abort+0x44/0xa0 [wave5] v4l2_m2m_cancel_job+0x110/0x19c [v4l2_mem2mem] v4l2_m2m_streamoff+0x24/0x140 [v4l2_mem2mem] Resume the device with pm_runtime_resume_and_get() around the EOS firmware command and release it with pm_runtime_put_autosuspend(), matching the runtime PM handling already done in wave5_vpu_dec_device_run().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Zero SFP DMA buffer in FRU/I2C bsg handlers The FRU and I2C bsg handlers stage their transfer in a DMA_POOL_SIZE (256-byte) bounce buffer obtained from dma_pool_alloc(), which does not zero the allocation. They initialize only a few leading bytes before handing the buffer to qla2x00_write_sfp(). qla2x00_write_sfp() can override the transfer length with a user-supplied value: if (len == 1) opt |= BIT_0; if (opt & BIT_0) len = *sfp; *sfp is the first byte of the (user-controlled) payload, so len can grow up to 255. The device then DMA-reads len bytes from the 256-byte pool buffer. Since only a small prefix was written (e.g. MAX_FRU_SIZE == 36 bytes for a FRU version, one byte for a FRU status register), the hardware reads past the initialized region and writes up to ~219 bytes of stale DMA-pool heap memory to the device flash. Allocate the buffer with dma_pool_zalloc() in all five FRU/I2C handlers so any bytes beyond the initialized data are zero rather than stale heap contents.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Bound i2c->length in I2C bsg handlers struct qla_i2c_access carries a 16-bit length field alongside a fixed 64-byte buffer: struct qla_i2c_access { uint16_t device, offset, option, length; uint8_t buffer[0x40]; } __packed; qla2x00_write_i2c() and qla2x00_read_i2c() use the user-supplied i2c->length without any bounds check. i2c is overlaid on a 256-byte on-stack buffer and sfp is a 256-byte DMA-pool buffer, so a length up to 65535 overruns both: - write: memcpy(sfp, i2c->buffer, i2c->length) over-reads the stack and over-writes the sfp heap buffer, and qla2x00_write_sfp() then DMAs i2c->length bytes out of the 256-byte buffer. - read: qla2x00_read_sfp() DMAs i2c->length bytes into the 256-byte sfp, then memcpy(i2c->buffer, sfp, i2c->length) overflows the 64-byte buffer inside the on-stack array. A caller holding CAP_SYS_RAWIO can use this to corrupt the heap and the kernel stack. Reject requests whose length exceeds the buffer before any copy or DMA transfer in both handlers.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: edif: Fix NULL pointer deref in RX SA delete check qla_chk_edif_rx_sa_delete_pending() obtains the SCSI command via GET_CMD_SP(sp) and immediately dereferences cmd->sc_data_direction. That command pointer can be NULL: the firmware may post a status completion for a command that has already been returned or aborted. The caller qla2x00_status_entry() acknowledges this on the very same status path, re-fetching GET_CMD_SP(sp) and bailing out with the "Command already returned" message when it is NULL -- but that check runs only after qla_chk_edif_rx_sa_delete_pending() has already dereferenced the pointer, so a NULL cmd crashes the kernel in interrupt context. Return early when cmd is NULL, before touching cmd->sc_data_direction.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Fix BSG job leak on validate flash image error path qla28xx_validate_flash_image() returns QLA_SUCCESS (0) unconditionally, telling the FC BSG transport (fc_bsg_host_dispatch()) that the driver owns and will complete the request. But bsg_job_done() is guarded by "if (!rval)", so on the error path (rval == -EINVAL) neither the driver nor the transport completes the job. The request dangles until it times out, leaking block layer resources. Commit c2c68225b145 ("scsi: qla2xxx: Fix bsg_done() causing double free") added the "if (!rval)" guard to a batch of BSG handlers. That is correct for handlers that also return the error code (the transport then completes the job once via fail_host_msg), but this function returns QLA_SUCCESS unconditionally, so the guard turned a correct single completion into a leak. Always call bsg_job_done(): bsg_reply->result is DID_OK and the error is reported in vendor_rsp[0], and since the function returns 0 the transport will not complete the job a second time.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Hold vport reference in qla24xx_report_id_acquisition() In the format 1 path, the virtual port is located on ha->vp_list while holding vport_slock, but the lock is dropped before vp is used: qla_update_host_map() is called and VP_IDX_ACQUIRED/REGISTER_FC4_NEEDED/ REGISTER_FDMI_NEEDED are set on vp. No reference is taken across that window, so a concurrent qla24xx_deallocate_vp_id() can tear the vport down and free it, leading to a use-after-free. Take a vport reference (vref_count) under vport_slock when the matching vp is found, and drop it after the last use of vp. qla24xx_deallocate_vp_id() waits for vref_count to reach zero before unlinking and freeing the vport, so the pointer stays valid. This matches the reference idiom already used by the other ha->vp_list traversals.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Initialize NVMe abort_work once at submission qla_nvme_fcp_abort() and qla_nvme_ls_abort() ran INIT_WORK() on priv->abort_work immediately before schedule_work(). INIT_WORK() reinitializes the work_struct, resetting its list head and clearing the pending bit. If an abort is issued more than once for the same command (for example, concurrent transport teardown and a timeout-driven abort), the second INIT_WORK() reinitializes a work item that is already queued, which can corrupt the workqueue list and lead to crashes or a looping worker. Initialize priv->abort_work once at command submission, next to the existing per-command spin_lock_init(&priv->cmd_lock), and leave only schedule_work() in the abort paths. schedule_work() already does nothing when the work item is still pending, so a repeated abort no longer disturbs an in-flight work item. The command is not returned to the transport until the final kref_put()/release callback runs after abort_work has completed, so the work item is idle before priv is reused and the single submission-time INIT_WORK() is safe.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Zero dport diagnostics buffer to avoid info leak qla2x00_do_dport_diagnostics() allocates the qla_dport_diag response buffer with kmalloc_obj() (non-zeroing) and, on success, copies the full sizeof(*dd) back to user space via sg_copy_from_buffer(). The inbound sg_copy_to_buffer() only fills as many bytes as the user request payload provides, and qla26xx_dport_diagnostics() zeroes only dd->buf. The options and unused[] fields are therefore copied out uninitialized, leaking kernel heap contents to user space. Allocate with kzalloc_obj(), matching qla2x00_do_dport_diagnostics_v2().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Bound image count in qla2x00_update_fru_versions() qla2x00_update_fru_versions() copies the user-supplied BSG request into a fixed 256-byte stack buffer (bsg[DMA_POOL_SIZE]) and then iterates list->count times over the qla_image_version array embedded in that buffer, advancing the image pointer each iteration. count is taken directly from user input with no upper bound, while only (DMA_POOL_SIZE - sizeof(list->count)) / sizeof(struct qla_image_version) = 6 entries actually fit. A larger count walks the image pointer off the end of the stack buffer, reading adjacent kernel stack memory and sending it to the device via qla2x00_write_sfp(). Reject requests whose declared count does not fit in the buffer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Hold qpair lock when sending NVMe LS reject qla_nvme_ls_reject_iocb() allocates from and advances the request ring through __qla2x00_alloc_iocbs() (which assumes the hardware_lock is held) and qla2x00_start_iocbs() (which advances the ring and rings the request-in doorbell), but takes no lock itself. Two of its callers invoke it without the producer lock held: - qla_nvme_xmt_ls_rsp(), the NVMe-FC .xmt_ls_rsp transport callback, on its error path, and - qla2xxx_process_purls_pkt(), run from the purex work/DPC context. Both use ha->base_qpair, whose qp_lock_ptr is hardware_lock, so they can run concurrently with normal I/O submission on the base ring and corrupt the ring producer state, leading to duplicated or dropped commands. The third caller, qla2xxx_process_purls_iocb(), runs inside qla24xx_process_response_queue() with the qpair lock already held and is safe; that is also why the lock cannot be taken inside the helper itself (it would recursively re-acquire hardware_lock on the response path). Take qp_lock_ptr around the two unlocked callers and document the helper as caller-locked. Both run in process context, so spin_lock_irqsave() is used and nothing in the locked region sleeps.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Clamp MSI-X derived queue counts to avoid truncation ha->msix_count is u16, but ha->max_req_queues, ha->max_rsp_queues and ha->max_qpairs are u8. Deriving the queue count as "ha->max_req_queues = ha->msix_count - 1" therefore truncates: a board (or a misconfigured/malicious hot-plugged device) advertising 257 MSI-X vectors yields msix_count - 1 == 256, which truncates to 0. An MSI-X count of 1 zeroes it as well, and in target mode the subsequent "ha->max_req_queues--" then underflows 0 to 255. When the count is 0, qla2x00_alloc_queues() calls kzalloc_objs(struct req_que *, 0), which returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR. That is not NULL, so the allocation check passes and the following "ha->req_q_map[0] = req" dereferences ZERO_SIZE_PTR, corrupting memory or crashing the kernel. Add qla_calc_queue_count() to clamp the derived value into [1, QLA_MAX_QUEUES - 1] so it always fits in u8 and is never zero, and use it at all three derivation sites (qla25xx_iospace_config(), qla83xx_iospace_config() and qla24xx_enable_msix()). Also guard the target-mode decrement so it cannot reintroduce a zero (which would in turn underflow max_qpairs).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Serialize flash version read in reset handler The "update cache versions without reset" sysfs reset operation (0x20261) calls get_flash_version(), which reads hardware flash registers, without holding ha->optrom_mutex. The VPD update path serializes the same call under optrom_mutex, so this reset path can interleave its flash register accesses with a concurrent VPD or optrom flash operation and corrupt the reads. Hold ha->optrom_mutex across the get_flash_version() call to match the VPD update path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Fix cs84xx use-after-free on host teardown qla84xx_put_chip() drops the last reference to ha->cs84xx and frees it via __qla84xx_chip_release() without clearing ha->cs84xx. During teardown it ran before scsi_remove_host(), which is what removes the 84xx_fw_version host sysfs attribute. A concurrent read of that attribute in the window between the two calls executes qla24xx_84xx_fw_version_show(), which dereferences the freed ha->cs84xx, resulting in a use-after-free. Move qla84xx_put_chip() to after scsi_remove_host() in both qla2x00_remove_one() and qla2x00_disable_board_on_pci_error(). Once scsi_remove_host() returns, the sysfs attribute is gone and kernfs has drained any in-flight show(), so no reader can touch cs84xx; the put still runs before the host and ha are freed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Fix FCE trace use-after-free during firmware dump qla2x00_free_fce_trace() freed and cleared ha->fce while holding only fce_mutex. The firmware-dump consumers qla27xx_fwdt_entry_t264() and qla25xx_copy_fce() read ha->fce (NULL check followed by a copy of the buffer) under hardware_lock and never take fce_mutex. A debugfs FCE disable could therefore free the DMA buffer between a dump's NULL check and its copy, resulting in a use-after-free. Unpublish ha->fce under hardware_lock, then release the lock and free the DMA buffer (dma_free_coherent() may sleep). A concurrent dump either completes its check and copy with the buffer still valid, or observes ha->fce == NULL and skips it.
