Vulnerabilities

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: storage: realtek_cr: fix use-after-free on disconnect realtek_cr_destructor() calls timer_delete() before the chip containing the timer is freed. The timer callback may still be running and can rearm itself, resulting in a use-after-free. Use timer_shutdown_sync() to wait for the callback and prevent further rearming. Do this unconditionally because ss_en may be changed after the timer is armed. Move timer_setup() into init_realtek_cr() so the timer is initialized before any failure path can invoke the destructor. Found by static analysis.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: hd3ss3220: track VBUS enable state per consumer regulator_is_enabled() reports the aggregate regulator state, not whether this consumer holds an enable reference. If another consumer enables VBUS first, the driver can skip its own regulator_enable() call and later attempt to drop a reference it never acquired, triggering an unbalanced regulator disable warning. Track successful enable and disable calls locally. Keep the state unchanged when an operation fails so a later role or ID notification retries the operation while this consumer keeps balanced references.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: qcom-pmic-typec: disable cc_debounce_dwork on stop cc_debounce_dwork is queued from the set_cc() and start_toggling() callbacks, which run from TCPM's kthread worker. port_stop() returns before tcpm_unregister_port() destroys that worker. Flushing the worker during unregister may therefore run a callback which queues the delayed work after port_stop() has returned. The delayed work can then run after devres has freed pmic_typec_port. Use disable_delayed_work_sync() in port_stop() to cancel a pending instance and prevent the TCPM callbacks from queueing another one. This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: qcom-pmic: cancel reset_work on stop pdphy_stop() disables IRQs but leaves reset_work pending. If the IRQ handler schedules it just before disable_irq(), the work runs after remove() frees the struct via devm. Call cancel_work_sync() after disabling IRQs to close the window. This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: ucsi: displayport: Fix OOB altmode array index The UCSI displayport driver indexes the connector's port altmode array with the GET_CURRENT_CAM response after checking it is not 0xff. The port altmode array is UCSI_MAX_ALTMODES elements long. If the PPM returns an invalid GET_CURRENT_CAM response above UCSI_MAX_ALTMODES and not equal to 0xff, the kernel may crash with an array index OOB error. Update the UCSI displayport driver to verify the current cam is less than UCSI_MAX_ALTMODES before accessing the port altmode array.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: midi2: Fix null-pointer dereference in f_midi2_free_ep_reqs A null-pointer dereference occurs in f_midi2_free_ep_reqs() when attempting to clean up an endpoint that was never initialized. When configuring the MIDI 2.0 gadget via configfs and setting the block direction to SNDRV_UMP_DIR_INPUT, the initialization of the midi1_ep_out endpoint is explicitly skipped during the gadget bind phase (f_midi2_bind()). As a result, the usb_ep->card field remains NULL. Later, when the host sets the alternate setting, f_midi2_set_alt() unconditionally stops both the IN and OUT endpoints by calling f_midi2_stop_eps(), which in turn calls f_midi2_free_ep_reqs() for both endpoints. When f_midi2_free_ep_reqs() is called for the uninitialized midi1_ep_out, it attempts to dereference usb_ep->card to determine the number of requests to free, leading to a crash. Fix this by using usb_ep->num_reqs instead of usb_ep->card->info.num_reqs in f_midi2_free_ep_reqs(). usb_ep->num_reqs is correctly set during f_midi2_init_ep() and remains 0 if the endpoint was never initialized, safely avoiding the loop. For consistency, apply the same change to f_midi2_alloc_ep_reqs(). Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc00000000ee: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000770-0x0000000000000777] ...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_mass_storage: fix null pointer dereference in fsg_common_set_num_buffers() Previously fsg_num_buffers_validate() was removed as it was not necessary due to Kconfig setting the limits for n from 2 to 256 with default as 2. However, setting the page content in such a way that kstrtou8() reflects n value as either 0 or 1 bypasses these restrictions leading to a null pointer dereference if n is 0. Fix this by adding a check for n < 2 and returning -EINVAL if n is either 0 or 1 consistent with Kconfig logic.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_midi2: fix use-after-free in string attribute show path f_midi2_opts_str_show() takes the string lock internally, but its callers dereference the opts->info. pointer before calling it, outside the lock. This races with f_midi2_opts_str_store(), which frees the old string under opts->lock when the attribute is written concurrently, the show path can read a pointer that gets freed before the lock inside str_show() is even taken. Change f_midi2_opts_str_show() to take a pointer to the string field, matching the existing pattern in f_midi2_opts_str_store(), and dereference it only after the lock is held. Update all three callers (iface_name, block name, and the EP string option macro) accordingly.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_midi: initialize work in f_midi_alloc() f_midi_alloc initializes free_ref to 1 and it can only be incremented when a sound card is registered via f_midi_register_card(). f_midi_register_card() is only called in f_midi_bind() which actually performs INIT_WORK. If f_midi_bind() is never run, work is not initialized and the if condition in f_midi_free becomes true, this results in a warning later in __flush_work as work->func = 0. Fix this by moving INIT_WORK from f_midi_bind() to f_midi_alloc().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: USB: gadget: fix NULL pointer dereference in gadget_dev_ioctl() gadget_dev_ioctl() reads dev->gadget before acquiring dev->lock, but dev->state is checked after acquiring the lock. Therefore a concurrent bind can change the device state between these operations, which can leave ioctl with a stale NULL gadget pointer and causing a NULL pointer dereference at gadget->ops->ioctl. Read dev->gadget while holding dev->lock so that the gadget pointer and device state are sampled consistently.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: fix null pointer dereference in usb_put_function_instance() usb_put_function_instance() attempts to dereference fd inside fi struct to get mod in uvc_alloc_inst() error path. However, fd is not allocated until later in try_get_usb_function_instance() after allocating fi in uvc_alloc_inst() and thus guranteed to be null in error path. Fix this by adding a null check for fi->fd that returns if fd is null.

The rtw_get_wps_attr() function in the Linux kernel's staging rtl8723bs driver (Realtek RTL8723BS SDIO Wi-Fi) validates only that a WPS attribute's fixed 4-byte header fits inside the WPS information element, but copies attr_len bytes — a value read directly from the wire and never checked against the remaining IE length — via memcpy(). A crafted WPS IE in a beacon or probe response received during Wi-Fi scanning therefore causes both an out-of-bounds heap read and, at several call sites where the destination is a single-byte stack variable, a stack buffer overflow in the parsing thread. An attacker in radio range can trigger this without authentication or user interaction, potentially crashing the kernel, leaking memory, or gaining code execution in the kernel via stack corruption. Only Linux systems that use the staging rtl8723bs driver (i.e., devices with RTL8723BS Wi-Fi hardware) are affected. No public proof-of-concept is known, the issue is not in CISA's KEV, and no in-the-wild exploitation has been reported.

Do: Update the Linux kernel to a release or stable branch that includes the fix adding the missing attr_len bounds check in rtw_get_wps_attr(); check with your distro for patched kernel packages. If patching is not possible, blacklist or disable the r8723bs staging driver, or restrict affected devices to trusted wireless networks since exploitation requires an attacker within radio range. Only systems with RTL8723BS Wi-Fi hardware are impacted; other Realtek drivers and Wi-Fi chipsets are not affected by this bug.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in rtw_action_frame_parse() rtw_action_frame_parse() takes a frame_len parameter but never actually checks it before indexing into the frame body: const u8 *frame_body = frame + sizeof(struct ieee80211_hdr_3addr); ... c = frame_body[0]; ... a = frame_body[1]; frame_body already points 24 bytes (sizeof(struct ieee80211_hdr_3addr)) into frame, so reading frame_body[0] and frame_body[1] requires frame_len >= 26. A management action frame shorter than that (e.g. exactly 24 bytes, the minimum a malicious peer can send) causes a 1-2 byte out-of-bounds read. This is reachable from rtw_cfg80211_monitor_if_xmit_entry() and cfg80211_rtw_mgmt_tx() in ioctl_cfg80211.c, both of which pass attacker/user-influenced frame buffers and lengths straight through. Add the missing length check before frame_body is dereferenced.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in rtw_restruct_wmm_ie() rtw_restruct_wmm_ie() scans in_ie for a WMM IE with: while (i < in_len) { ... if (i + 5 < in_len && in_ie[i] == 0xDD && ...) { ... break; } i += (in_ie[i + 1] + 2); /* to the next IE element */ } When the "i + 5 < in_len" match check fails simply because i is within 5 bytes of the end of the buffer (i.e. no WMM IE was found near the tail of in_ie), execution falls through to "i += (in_ie[i + 1] + 2)", which reads in_ie[i + 1]. If i == in_len - 1 at that point, this is a 1-byte out-of-bounds read of an attacker-influenced IE buffer built from association/scan data. Commit a75281626fc8f ("staging: rtl8723bs: fix potential out-of-bounds read in rtw_restruct_wmm_ie") added the "i + 5 < in_len" guard to the match condition itself, but did not add an equivalent guard before the fallthrough advance, so the same class of OOB read remained reachable through the non-matching path. Add an explicit bounds check before advancing to the next IE.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xhci: fix lost bounce buffers on TDs spanning several ring segments When a TD reaches a link TRB with data that is not aligned to the endpoint's wMaxPacketSize, xhci_align_td() stages the unalignable tail through the bounce buffer of the ring segment holding that link TRB. xhci_unmap_td_bounce_buffer() later unmaps it and, for IN transfers, copies the data back into the URB's buffer. The enqueue path records the segment that was bounced in td->bounce_seg, under the assumption that a TD never spans more than two ring segments. That assumption does not hold: a TD large enough to span three or more segments crosses several link TRBs and can be bounced at each of them. Only the last one survives in td->bounce_seg, so every earlier bounce buffer is neither copied back nor DMA unmapped. The URB still completes with actual_length equal to the requested length and no error, so the transfer looks successful while a wMaxPacketSize sized hole in the destination buffer silently keeps its previous contents. It also leaks a DMA mapping per dropped bounce. Any sufficiently large and fragmented bulk transfer can hit this. It was found with a USB mass storage device behind xHCI backing a dm-verity target with 512 byte hash blocks, where the stale data is detected rather than silently consumed. The device enumerates as SuperSpeed, so wMaxPacketSize is 1024, while dm-bufio issues one 512 byte bio per hash block. verity_prefetch_io() makes the block layer merge hundreds of them into a single request of up to 512 scatterlist entries of 512 bytes each. At 256 TRBs per ring segment such a TD spans three segments, and every segment boundary falls on an odd multiple of 512, i.e. unaligned to wMaxPacketSize. dm-bufio then caches a hash block holding stale data and dm-verity declares the metadata block corrupted: device-mapper: verity: 8:2: metadata block 10850 is corrupted A reproducer running this under qemu is available at https://github.com/baloo/xhci-verity The bounce state (bounce_buf, bounce_dma, bounce_len, bounce_offs) already lives on the ring segment, so there is nothing extra to track. Keep recording the last bounced segment in td->bounce_seg and, on completion, walk the segments from td->start_seg up to it, unmapping every segment that still has a pending bounce. Stopping at td->bounce_seg rather than td->end_seg matters: a bounce implies the TD continues past that segment's link TRB, so bounce_seg is always strictly before end_seg, and a later TD may already have started in end_seg and been bounced there. Walking that far would copy a foreign bounce buffer into this URB and unmap it twice. It also keeps the walk correct if a TD ever wraps the whole ring so that end_seg == start_seg. [mn: Add ring->num_segs check to prevent unlikely infinite for loop.]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tracing: Have show_event_filters/triggers files take trace array ref The newly added files show_event_filters and show_event_triggers that show all filters or triggers that are set within the trace array do not take a reference for the trace array it is showing. Without taking a reference, the trace_array may be freed via "rmdir" while a task is reading one of theses files. Those files iterate all the events within an instance (trace_array) and nothing prevents that instance from being freed while its data is being read. This causes a use-after-free crash. Have the open of both those files take the trace_array reference via the trace_array_get() that prevents the trace_array from being freed while the files are opened.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tracing: Take trace_array reference when opening options file The options files do not take the trace_array reference for the options they represent. This could cause a use-after-free kernel crash if one of these files is opened by one task and another task removes the instance that the option is for. Because it doesn't take a reference upon opening, it will not stop the removal which will free the options descriptor that is being used. As the options are somewhat dynamic in their creation at boot up, each file represents a flag in the trace_array. The trace_array has an array of indexes to represent each of these flags that is stored in the trace_flags_index array. The address of the index array element is used to pass to the inode->i_private pointer. Then that element is read which holds the index (which represents the flag) and then the index is used to calculate the trace_array descriptor from its trace_flags_index array. One issue is that the index element can not be referenced until the trace_array's reference is taken. To handle this, create a new helper function called: trace_array_options_get() that will iterate all the existing trace_arrays in the ftrace_trace_arrays list (under the trace_types_lock), and compare the passed in address of the index element with the entire array of the trace_array's trace_flags_index array. If it matches, then up the corresponding trace_array's reference and return.

CVE-2026-90012 is an error-handling flaw in the Linux kernel's SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface) subsystem: when RX DMA mapping fails after TX mapping has succeeded, or TX mapping fails on a later transfer, __spi_map_msg() leaves stale mapping flags and stale/NULL cur_tx_dma_dev/cur_rx_dma_dev pointers, because those device pointers are only published after all transfers are mapped. The follow-up spi_unmap_msg() can then unmap the same TX mapping twice or call dma_unmap_sg_attrs() with a NULL or stale device — and since that function dereferences the device before checking the SG entry count, a NULL device triggers a kernel oops (crash). An attacker who can cause DMA mapping failures on an SPI controller with DMA gains at minimum denial of service, and the incorrect release of DMA mappings carries potential memory-safety implications consistent with the reported critical CVSS (9.8), although the network vector depends on driver-specific conditions. Affected are any systems running Linux kernels with SPI controllers that use DMA, a configuration typical of embedded and ARM-based devices. No public proof-of-concept exists, the flaw is not in CISA KEV, and no exploitation is currently known.

Do: Patch by pulling the upstream commit 'spi: Fix DMA mapping ownership on partial map failure' into your kernel or take the corresponding update from your kernel/board vendor's stable or LTS stream once published (no specific fixed version numbers are available in the source data), prioritizing ARM/embedded products whose kernels enable SPI controllers with DMA. No workaround is documented; if you cannot patch immediately, avoid workloads that stress SPI DMA under memory pressure and investigate any kernel oopses surfacing in dma_unmap_sg_attrs() during SPI transfers. Since no exploitation is known, systems not using SPI can patch at normal cadence.

The Linux kernel's iSCSI target implementation (LIO, drivers/target/iscsi) allocates the login request buffer at exactly MAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS (8192) bytes, and its length check uses '>' instead of '>=', so a login PDU payload of 8189-8192 bytes (plus padding) fills the entire buffer with no byte left for a NUL terminator. The buffer is subsequently parsed as a C string by functions such as strstr(), kstrdup() and strlen_semi() in the CHAP authentication path, and convert_null_to_semi() rewrites embedded NULs to semicolons, so parsing walks past the end of the object into adjacent slab memory (out-of-bounds read). An unauthenticated initiator can trigger it by sending a crafted login request to a portal configured for CHAP authentication; portals that do not require authentication rewrite AuthMethod to None and never enter the CHAP path. Per the CVSS score of 9.1, an attacker gains information disclosure (C:H) and denial of service (A:H), with no integrity impact. No public proof-of-concept or in-the-wild exploitation is known; the fix allocates one extra zeroed byte so the buffer is always terminated.

Do: Apply a kernel update containing this SCSI target (iscsi_target) fix as soon as it reaches your vendor/distro kernel; no fixed version number is given in the source data, so check your vendor's advisory for the backport. Until patched, restrict TCP port 3260 on iSCSI portals to trusted initiator networks with firewall/ACL rules, and note that portals without mandatory CHAP (AuthMethod None) are not reachable through the vulnerable code path. Check whether any Linux hosts run targetcli/LIO with CHAP configured and whether those portals are exposed beyond the storage network.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: bsg: Cap io_uring sense copy to max_response_len Completion copied scmd->sense_len to the user response buffer without honoring max_response_len. After a valid sense, the midlayer sets sense_len to the real length (up to SCSI_SENSE_BUFFERSIZE), so a smaller user buffer was overrun.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: bsg: Fix TOCTOU in io_uring passthrough command setup scsi_bsg_uring_cmd() reads bsg_uring_cmd from the shared mmap'd SQE. Userspace can change a field after we check it and before we use it. request_len is the sharp case: it can grow past sizeof(scmd->cmnd) after the bound check and overflow scmd->cmnd in copy_from_user(). READ_ONCE() the SQE fields we check or use into locals before use.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: megaraid_sas: Limit NVMe request size to the PRP chain frame megasas_make_prp_nvme() builds a command's PRP list in cmd->sg_frame, a DMA pool buffer of instance->max_chain_frame_sz bytes, spending one entry per NVMe page of the transfer plus one per page of the buffer for the chain pointer. The loop runs until the transfer is described and never checks the buffer bound. max_hw_sectors comes straight from the MDTS the firmware reports for the drive. On drives with a large MDTS the only thing keeping the list inside the buffer was the block layer default of 1280 KiB, which needs 320 entries, which fit into a 4 KiB frame as that holds 512. But since commit 9b8b84879d4a ("block: Increase BLK_DEF_MAX_SECTORS_CAP") that default is 4 MiB, and such a transfer needs 1025 entries, so the list runs a full page past the end of the frame: sd 1:0:1:0: [sdb] tag#630 page boundary ptr_sgl: 0x00000000ba62d13f BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ff663bcb81e7c000 #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page RIP: 0010:megasas_build_and_issue_cmd_fusion+0xeaa/0x1870 [megaraid_sas] If the page after the frame happens to be mapped, the overrun does not fault but silently corrupts the neighbouring pool entry, which is another in-flight command's PRP list. Cap max_hw_sectors at what the chain frame can describe, less one page for transfers that do not start on a page boundary and so need one entry more. This is the megaraid_sas counterpart of commit 04631f55afc5 ("scsi: mpt3sas: Limit NVMe request size to 2 MiB"), but derives the limit from max_chain_frame_sz rather than hardcoding it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: pm8001: Use rollback index when freeing MSI-X vectors pm8001_request_msix() unwinds previously registered handlers with free_irq() when request_irq() fails. The rollback loop uses the failing index i for every iteration instead of the already registered vector index j. That passes the wrong IRQ/dev_id pair to free_irq() and leaves the earlier handlers installed. Use j for both pci_irq_vector() and the matching irq_vector entry in the rollback loop.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: samples/damon/mtier: handle damon_stop() failure damon_sample_mtier_stop() assumes its damon_stop() call will always successfully stops the two DAMON contexts. Hence it deallocates the two DAMON contexts after the damon_stop() call. However, if a given context is already stopped, damon_stop() fails and returns an error while letting the DAMON contexts that have not yet stopped keep running. This kind of unexpected early DAMON context stops could happen due to memory allocation failures in kdamond_fn(). Because damon_sample_mtier_stop() just deallocates all DAMON contexts with damon_target and damon_region objects that are linked to the contexts, the execution of the unstopped DAMON context (kdamond) ends up using the memory that freed (use-after-free). Fix the issue by separating the damon_stop() to be invoked per context. Note that DAMON_SYSFS also allows multiple DAMON contexts execution. But, it calls damon_stop() for each context one by one. Hence this issue is only in mtier. For the long term, it would be better to refactor damon_stop() to always ensure stopping all contexts regardless of the failures in the middle. Make this fix in the current way, though, to keep it simple and easy to backport. I will do the refactoring later. The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: samples/damon/wsse: handle damon_start() failure Patch series "samples/damon: handle damon_{start,stop}() failures". All DAMON sample modules are not correctly handling failures from damon_start(). Among those, mtier also has an additional problem for handling of damon_stop() failures. wsse and prcl also have a problem in their damon_call() failure handling. As a result, memory leaks, next DAMON operation disruptions, and use-after-free can happen. Fix those. Note that only the damon_start() failure caused issues can reliably be reproduced. Reproducing those issues require the admin permission, though. This patch (of 6): damon_sample_wsse_start() callers assume it will clean up resources when it fails. And the function does the cleanup for context buildup failures. However, it is not doing the cleanup for damon_start() failure. As a result, when damon_start() fails, it leaks the memory for DAMON context. Free the context in case of the failure to fix the issues. Note that the issue can reliably be reproduced because the module calls damon_start() in the exclusive mode. For example, $ sudo damo start $ echo $$ | sudo tee /sys/module/damon_sample_wsse/parameters/target_pid $ echo Y | sudo tee /sys/module/damon_sample_wsse/parameters/enabled $ sudo cat /proc/allocinfo | grep damon_new_ctx Because the first command is running another DAMON instance, the third command fails the damon_start() call because the new DAMON instance cannot exclusively run. And without this fix, by repeating the third and the fourth commands above, we can show the memory consumption is only increasing due to the leaks. It requires the sudo permission though. The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/damon/core: handle region split failure in apply_min_nr_regions() damon_apply_min_nr_regions() repeatedly split each region until its size becomes small enough to meet the user-defined low limit of the number of regions. The loop assumes the split operation (damon_split_region_at()) will always succeed and create the new region. But the operation could silently fail for memory allocation failures, for example. If such failure happens and the region was the last region, the linked list-based next region fetching returns invalid pointer. As a result, invalid memory dereference and corruption could happen. Even if the corner case is handled, it imposes stress to the allocator by trying split regions for other targets. Fix the issue by breaking all the loops for any region split failure. This means there could be a min_nr_regions violation. It will only rarely happen since the allocation is arguably too small to fail. Even if it happens, it is only temporal. damon_apply_min_nr_regions() will be called again after the aggregation interval. The user impact of the issue should be minor, since the allocation is arguably too small to fail. But, it could still theoretically happen, and the consequence is very bad. This issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: futex: Prevent rcuwait use-after-free during requeue PI On PREEMPT_RT, FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE_PI can trigger a KASAN report (slab-out-of-bounds) in futex_requeue_pi_complete() invocation of rcuwait_wake_up(). The futex_q used by futex_wait_requeue_pi() is allocated on the waiter's stack. An early wakeup can race with a PI requeue as follows: waiter requeue task ------ ------------ futex_wait_requeue_pi() futex_do_wait() schedule() futex_requeue futex_proxy_trylock_atomic() futex_requeue_pi_prepare() Q_REQUEUE_PI_NONE -> Q_REQUEUE_PI_IN_PROGRESS * timeout/ signal wakes waiter * futex_requeue_pi_wakeup_sync() Q_REQUEUE_PI_IN_PROGRESS -> Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT requeue_pi_wake_futex futex_requeue_pi_complete() cmpxchg Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT -> Q_REQUEUE_PI_LOCKED rcuwait_wait_event() if (atomic_read(&q->requeue_state) != Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT) break /* no schedule() */ /* q.pi_state->owner == current */ futex_private_hash_put() /* return from syscall */ rcuwait_wake_up(&q->requeue_wait) /* q is gone */ futex_requeue_pi_complete() publishes Q_REQUEUE_PI_LOCKED before calling rcuwait_wake_up(). The waiter observes this state in rcuwait_wait_event() before invoking schedule() in rcuwait_wait_event(). Here, the waiter is free leave the syscall before requeue task can complete the wake. To address this race skip rcuwait_wake_up() in the Q_REQUEUE_PI_LOCKED case. This state is only published by requeue_pi_wake_futex(), which saves q->task before futex_requeue_pi_complete() and wakes the waiter via wake_up_state(). This wake is intended to wake the waiter from its futex_do_wait() sleep. If the waiter is still sleeping there, it can not get into the Q_REQUEUE_PI_WAIT state (and require this removed wake). Should the waiter be woken up from futex_do_wait() by other means (as in this example) and sleep in futex_requeue_pi_wakeup_sync() then the wake_up_state() from requeue_pi_wake_futex() will wake it, too. Should the waiter task terminate before wake_up_state() had a chance to wake the task then the task pointer does not become invalid because the futex_hash_bucket::lock is held and the task pointer is RCU protected. [bigeasy: Updated comment and commit message]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ftrace: Take trace_array reference before accessing its ftrace_ops The trace instance files set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace was updated to work with specific trace instances (trace_arrays). The issue is that when these files are opened, there is a small race window where it will use the ftrace_ops from the inode->private pointer to get a reference to the trace_array and then take its reference. The problem is that the ftrace_ops itself could be freed. If the rmdir on the instance happens at the same time the set_ftrace_filter file is opened, the rmdir could have also freed the ftrace_ops and referencing it will cause a use-after-free bug and crash the kernel. Instead, pass in the trace_array as the file private data (NULL for the top level instance), and then pass both the trace_array and the ftrace_ops to the ftrace_regex_open() function. If the trace_array is NULL, then it just uses the ftrace_ops without the need to take its reference (like normal). If the ftrace_ops is NULL, that is only the case for the top level instance and the global_ops can be used. This allows the trace_array to have its reference incremented before touching the ftrace_ops that could also be freed when the instance is.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: bpf: serialize device reference release in struct_ops destroy path __hid_bpf_ops_destroy_device() and hid_bpf_unreg() can race on the same registration reference, double-putting struct hid_device and freeing it while hid_destroy_device() still uses it. Serialize the remove/NULL decision under hdev->bpf.prog_list_lock so exactly one path releases each registration reference: unreg re-checks ops->hdev under the lock and returns without putting when the destroy path already cleared it; all put_device() calls happen after the lock is dropped, which is safe because a concurrent unreg then observes ops->hdev == NULL under the lock. Background: each successful attach (hid_bpf_ops_reg) acquires one device reference (hid_get_device()). Two paths can release it: - device destruction: hid_destroy_device() -> hid_bpf_destroy_device() -> __hid_bpf_ops_destroy_device(), which walks hdev->bpf.prog_list under rcu_read_lock() and drops one reference per attached program; - BPF link release: bpf map delete (no BPF_F_LINK) synchronously calls st_ops->unreg() -> hid_bpf_unreg(), which drops the reference for its own registration. The coordination handshake (e->hdev = NULL on the destroy side vs "if (!hdev) return" on the unreg side) is a TOCTOU check: the two paths run under different lock domains (rcu_read_lock vs prog_list_lock), so a concurrent unreg can read ops->hdev as non-NULL, block on prog_list_lock, and then proceed while the destroy traversal executes - both paths then drop the same reference. The refcount reaches zero legitimately (each decrement is individually valid), so no refcount_t saturation fires: the device is simply freed while the transport is still inside hid_destroy_device(), and subsequent teardown touches freed memory. The fix serializes the remove/NULL decision under prog_list_lock on both sides and moves the destroy-side puts outside the lock. With the lock held, plain reads/writes of ops->hdev are sufficient; no READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE are added, keeping the patch minimal. Unlocked-read safety: the unlocked read of ops->hdev at the top of hid_bpf_unreg() cannot touch a freed device, because the unreg path itself still holds this registration's reference (released only by its own hid_put_device() after the lock is dropped), and a destroy traversal that already cleared ops->hdev makes the lock-internal re-check return early without any put. At most one of the two paths releases each registration reference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: rmi: fix OOB access with undersized RMI reports The hid-rmi driver sizes its writeReport/readReport buffer purely from the report descriptor supplied by the device, with no minimum bound: data->input_report_size = hid_report_len(input_report); data->output_report_size = hid_report_len(output_report); alloc_size = data->output_report_size + data->input_report_size; data->writeReport = devm_kzalloc(&hdev->dev, alloc_size, GFP_KERNEL); data->readReport = data->writeReport + data->output_report_size; but then reads and writes fixed offsets into it. A device declaring a 1-byte output and a 1-byte input report makes hid_report_len() return 2 for each, so alloc_size is 4, while rmi_set_page() -- reached unconditionally at probe time through rmi_input_configured() -- stores writeReport[4] and rmi_hid_read_block() stores writeReport[0..5]. Since readReport lives at writeReport + output_report_size, those stores also corrupt the window the next reply is parsed out of. The read path is worse: the copy length comes from readReport[1], which the device fills in and can be up to 255, and the copy starts at &readReport[2] with no regard for input_report_size, so it runs past the end of the allocation into adjacent slab objects. This does not even need a lying device -- rmi_f01_probe() issues a fixed 21-byte register read, so any device declaring an input report smaller than 23 bytes reads out of bounds even when it answers truthfully. Those bytes become the register values the RMI core acts on: rmi_f01_probe() prints them to the kernel log as the product id and exports them through the mode 0444 sysfs attribute of the same name, and rmi_driver_set_irq_bits() sends them back to the device as the interrupt mask, so an undersized report descriptor leaks heap contents both to unprivileged userspace and to the device itself. The write path has no bound either: rmi_hid_write_block() copies an unbounded len to &writeReport[4], and the largest caller a device can drive at probe time is rmi_driver_set_irq_bits(), whose length is derived from the interrupt source counts the device declares in its Page Description Table. Finally, the read loop cannot terminate on a zero-length reply: such a reply copies nothing and advances neither bytes_read nor bytes_needed, and because a reply did arrive the one second wait_event_timeout() does not fire either, so a device answering 0 forever keeps the loop running inside the probe worker with page_mutex held. khungtaskd does not notice, because every reply wakes the task. Reject reports too small for what the driver builds -- 6 output bytes for the write reports and 3 input bytes for the read handshake -- at probe time, clamp the write and the read copy to the report sizes the device declared, and treat a zero-length reply as an error. A device refused this way is started as an ordinary HID device, like one that does not carry the RMI report ids at all. RMI_DEVICE must not be left set in device_flags on that path, because rmi_input_configured() would then run the RMI setup and reach rmi_set_page(), which writes the writeReport buffer the refusal just skipped allocating. The bit can arrive set: rmi_probe() copies id->driver_data into device_flags before the report checks, and a bind through the new_id sysfs attribute can supply driver_data with RMI_DEVICE (BIT(0)) set. Strip the bit where driver_data is copied, so RMI_DEVICE keeps meaning exactly "this probe validated the reports"; the three jumps to start that predate this patch are covered as well. The error path also clears RMI_READ_DATA_PENDING on its way out, because that flag is what the wait at the top of the loop tests: leaving it set would make every later wait_event_timeout() return immediately on the stale reply and kill the read path for the rest of the device's life. Clamping does not regress working hardware: the read loop already handles ---truncated---

OpenMeter before v1.0.0-beta.228 fails to safely handle user-controlled JSONPath values in meter definitions backed by ClickHouse, resulting in SQL injection (CWE-89). A remote, unauthenticated attacker can submit crafted JSONPath expressions to the meters API, causing them to be incorporated into ClickHouse queries. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to read or modify metering event data and can potentially disrupt the service, leading to denial of service. All deployments of OpenMeter earlier than v1.0.0-beta.228 on any platform are affected, with self-hosted instances of this open-source usage-metering platform being the primary exposure. No public proof-of-concept is known, the issue is not listed in CISA's KEV, and there are no confirmed reports of exploitation so far.

Do: Upgrade OpenMeter to v1.0.0-beta.228 or later as soon as possible. If an immediate upgrade is not possible, restrict network access to the meters API (e.g., place it behind an authenticating reverse proxy or limit it to trusted networks). Afterwards, review ClickHouse logs and metering event data for signs of unauthorized access or modification.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: wacom: validate report length in wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_irq wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_irq() receives the wire report length in `len` but never consults it before parsing. After the report-id gate it unconditionally calls wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_pen() and then, selected by features.type, a fixed chain of sub-parsers, none of which receive `len`: wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_pen(wacom); if (type == INTUOSP2_BT || type == INTUOSP2S_BT) { wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_touch(wacom); wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_pad(wacom); wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_battery(wacom); } else { wacom_intuos_gen3_bt_pad(wacom); wacom_intuos_gen3_bt_battery(wacom); } Each sub-parser dereferences wacom->data at fixed offsets. The furthest byte touched on each branch is: INTUOSP2_BT / INTUOSP2S_BT: wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_pad() reads data[285] (the touchring byte), so the report must be at least 286 bytes; INTUOSHT3_BT ("gen3"): wacom_intuos_gen3_bt_battery() reads data[45], so the report must be at least 46 bytes. features.type is selected from the VID/PID id_table entry and wacom_setup_device_quirks() force-registers the pen/pad/touch inputs for that type independent of the report descriptor, so a malicious or malfunctioning paired/spoofed Bluetooth peripheral can advertise that VID/PID and send an undersized report that still satisfies the data[0] == 0x80/0x81 gate. The driver then reads past the received report and forwards the bytes to userspace via evdev (MSC_SERIAL / ABS_MISC / ABS_WHEEL on the pen and pad input nodes), an out-of-bounds read with a concrete userspace read-back channel, and a true out-of-bounds read on transports whose backing buffer is sized to the (small) report descriptor rather than a fixed-size staging buffer. This is the same class of bug commit 2f1763f62909 ("HID: wacom: fix out-of-bounds read in wacom_intuos_bt_irq") already hardened in the sibling wacom_intuos_bt_irq(), which guards each report id against its minimum length before parsing. Guard wacom_intuos_pro2_bt_irq() the same way: before parsing, reject reports shorter than the furthest offset the selected branch actually dereferences, warn, and bail out. Because the whole pen/touch/pad/ battery chain runs unconditionally per branch, a single up-front check against the maximum offset (286 bytes for INTUOSP2_BT/INTUOSP2S_BT, 46 bytes for the gen3 branch) bounds every sub-parser. Returning 0 on a short report also skips those calls for the same malformed report, which is the safe, conservative behavior.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dm: fix race when loading and unloading a table If the userspace calls two concurrent table load ioctls and one of them succeeds and the other fails, there is a race condition because dm_setup_md_queue walks &md->table_devices without any lock. If the walk races with dm_table_destroy -> free_devices -> dm_put_table_device, there is access to invalid memory. Fix this race by extending the lock over the list walk.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dm: fix resume-vs-remove race If the user issues the resume ioctl and the remove ioctl at the same time, it may be possible that the device is resumed after it is suspended in __dm_destroy. The result is that the table is destroyed without calling the postsuspend method. Dm targets expect that they may be removed only after the postsuspend method method was called. If we break this expectation, it can cause misbehavior in various targets. For example - in the dm-integrity target, the reboot notifier is not unregistered, leading to use-after-free. Fix this bug by refusing to resume if the device is being destroyed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dma-buf: dma-heap: don't publish fd before copy_to_user() succeeds DMA_HEAP_IOCTL_ALLOC allocates a dma-buf and installs an fd into the caller's fd table via dma_buf_fd() -> fd_install() before dma_heap_ioctl() copies the result back to userspace. If the trailing copy_to_user() fails, userspace never learns the fd number, but the fd (and the underlying dma-buf reference) are already visible to other threads in the same process and are leaked for the lifetime of the process. The obvious "close it on the failure path" fix is unsafe: once fd_install() has run, another thread can already dup() the fd, send it via SCM_RIGHTS, or close() it and let its number be reused, so a subsequent close_fd() from the ioctl path can operate on an unrelated file. This was pointed out by Christian König on v1 [1]. Restructure the allocation path so that fd_install() is the last, unfailable step of a successful ioctl: 1. heap->ops->allocate() creates the dma_buf. 2. get_unused_fd_flags() reserves an fd number in the caller's fd table without publishing it, so no other thread can observe it. 3. copy_to_user() delivers the fd number to userspace; on failure the fd is returned with put_unused_fd() and the dma_buf reference is dropped with dma_buf_put(), leaving no user- visible state behind. 4. dma_buf_fd_install() publishes the fd and emits the trace_dma_buf_fd tracepoint -- from here on the ioctl cannot fail. A new dma_buf_fd_install() helper is introduced in dma-buf.c to wrap fd_install() together with the DMA_BUF_TRACE() call, preserving the export tracing that dma_buf_fd() provides. dma_heap_ioctl_allocate() is refactored to return the struct dma_buf * directly (returning ERR_PTR on failure) so the caller holds the dmabuf reference across steps 3 and 4. The failure at step 3 is easily reachable from userspace: pass a struct dma_heap_allocation_data that lives in a page whose protection is flipped to PROT_READ between copy_from_user() and copy_to_user() (e.g. via mprotect()). Before this change each such ioctl leaks one dmabuf fd; after it, the fd table is unchanged on failure and only /dev/dma_heap/ remains open. No UAPI or heap-driver interface change.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dma-direct: return struct page from dma_direct_alloc_from_pool() Commit 5b138c534fda ("dma-direct: factor out a dma_direct_alloc_from_pool helper") changed dma_direct_alloc_from_pool() to return the CPU address from dma_alloc_from_pool(). That fits dma_direct_alloc(), but dma_direct_alloc_pages() also uses the helper and expects a struct page *. Fix this by making dma_direct_alloc_from_pool() return the struct page * again, and pass the CPU address back through an out-parameter for the dma_direct_alloc() caller.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: fsl-edma: tracing: no ptr dereference during log output The fsl edma events store a pointer to a struct fsl_edma_engine in the ringbuffer and dereference it when a log entry is printed. At this time, the pointer may no longer be valid. Event injection can be used to trigger a crash: $ cd /sys/kernel/tracing $ echo 'value = 0' > events/fsl_edma/edma_writeb/inject $ cat trace The log output needs only edma->membase. Add a membase field at the end of the event and use the new field for log output. Keep the existing fields for backward compatibility.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: dw-edma: Initialize IRQ data before requesting IRQs dw_edma_irq_request() passes struct dw_edma_irq to request_irq() before dw_edma_channel_setup() fills the back pointer. A shared interrupt can therefore enter the handler with dw_irq->dw still NULL, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. Set the back pointer before installing each handler.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cpuidle: dt_idle_genpd: kfree() the original name allocation dt_idle_pd_alloc() kasprintf()s the full node path, then points pd->name at kbasename() of that string. dt_idle_pd_free() kfree()s pd->name, which is no longer the start of the allocation. Copy the basename instead.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Fix infinite loop in pcpu_freelist push with one possible CPU __pcpu_freelist_push() can loop forever when only one CPU is possible and an NMI re-enters pcpu_freelist_push() while the interrupted context holds that CPU's freelist lock. After the current-CPU fast path fails, the fallback loop walks cpu_possible_mask while skipping the current CPU. With CONFIG_SMP=n, or when an SMP kernel is limited to one possible CPU with nr_cpus=1 or possible_cpus=1, there are no other possible CPUs to examine. The loop therefore makes no lock acquisition attempt and can never make progress. The following stack was observed on a UP system: NMI context: pcpu_freelist_push free_htab_elem htab_map_delete_elem [perf-event BPF program] __perf_event_overflow perf_event_nmi_handler exc_nmi Interrupted context: __pcpu_freelist_push pcpu_freelist_push free_htab_elem htab_map_delete_elem [raw_tp/sys_enter BPF program] __bpf_trace_sys_enter do_syscall_64 raw_res_spin_lock() detects the same-CPU recursive acquisition and returns -EDEADLK, but the subsequent fallback loop has no candidate head on a system with one possible CPU. Restore the extra fallback head that existed before the rqspinlock conversion. Keep the current-CPU fast path, then try the other possible CPUs and finally the extra head. The additional head lets a push, which cannot fail without losing a preallocated element, make progress when the only per-CPU head is held by the interrupted context. Also check the extra head from the pop path so that nodes placed there can be reused.

CVE-2026-89990 is a use-after-free in the Linux kernel's Ceph filesystem (CephFS) client: ceph_mds_check_access() walks the mdsc->s_cap_auths array without holding mdsc->mutex, while MDS session OPEN handling can replace that array and free the old array and its strings under the same mutex. The flaw is triggered when an MDS session is reopened concurrently with a process opening files on a CephFS mount; the fix commit's crash trace shows a php-cgi process faulting in ceph_atomic_open via path_openat after the array was freed beneath it. The demonstrated impact is a kernel oops (denial of service), and as a kernel-space use-after-free it may be exploitable further, consistent with the critical 9.8 CVSS score. Any Linux host mounting CephFS with a kernel containing the vulnerable access-check code is affected. No public proof-of-concept or confirmed malicious exploitation is known and the flaw is not in CISA KEV; it is fixed by a mainline kernel commit pending vendor backports.

Do: Patch kernels on hosts that mount CephFS (verify with 'mount -t ceph') as soon as a fixed mainline kernel or vendor backport is available, prioritizing multi-user systems such as web servers running php-cgi where local processes can race session reopens. Until patched, restrict untrusted local access to CephFS-mounted hosts or unmount CephFS, and be aware that MDS failover/session-reopen events can trigger the race.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ima: Check for ERR_PTR from dentry_path() in validate_hash_algo() dentry_path() returns ERR_PTR(-ENAMETOOLONG) when the path exceeds the buffer. validate_hash_algo() passes the result straight to integrity_audit_msg() without checking. ERR_PTR is not NULL, so integrity_audit_message() sees a valid pointer and calls strlen() on it, which faults: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffffffffdc RIP: 0010:strlen+0x30/0xa0 Call Trace: audit_log_untrustedstring+0x19/0x30 integrity_audit_message+0x366/0x4f0 ima_inode_setxattr+0x512/0x5f0 Check for IS_ERR() and use NULL instead, which makes the audit message skip the name= field instead of crashing.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: kprobes: Protect kprobe_blacklist with RCU __within_kprobe_blacklist() traverses kprobe_blacklist without holding kprobe_mutex. When a module is unloaded, kprobe_remove_area_blacklist() removes blacklist entries and immediately frees them with kfree(). A concurrent call to within_kprobe_blacklist() can therefore dereference freed memory. Furthermore, within_kprobe_blacklist() can be called in atomic or non-preemptible contexts where the sleeping kprobe_mutex cannot be taken. Protect kprobe_blacklist with RCU. Use guard(rcu)() and list_for_each_entry_rcu() for traversal, list_add_tail_rcu() for insertions, list_del_rcu() for deletions, and kfree_rcu() to reclaim entries safely after a grace period.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/huge_memory: transfer the pmd dirty bit to the folio on zap zap_huge_pmd_folio() propagates the pmd young bit to the folio for the file case, but not the dirty bit. The pte path does propagate it, in zap_present_folio_ptes() and so does the pmd split path, in __split_huge_pmd_locked(). For most file mappings the omission is harmless, because writing to a shared file mapping goes through page_mkwrite(), which dirties the folio. tmpfs is different: it has no page_mkwrite(), and vma_wants_writenotify() is false for it, so a *read* fault on a MAP_SHARED tmpfs mapping installs a writable pmd via do_read_fault(). do_read_fault() does not call fault_dirty_shared_page(), so subsequent stores through that mapping set only the hardware dirty bit in the pmd and never call folio_mark_dirty(). A shmem folio allocated by a fault is marked uptodate but not dirty (see the clear: block in shmem_get_folio_gfp()), so PG_dirty is never set at all. Unmapping such a folio - munmap(), or exit_mmap() when the process dies - then loses the only record that it was written, because zap_huge_pmd() drops the pmd without transferring the dirty bit. Reclaim afterwards sees a clean shmem folio: the whole swap-out block in shrink_folio_list() is inside "if (folio_test_dirty(folio))", so pageout() is skipped and the folio falls into __remove_mapping(). There, folio_is_file_lru() is false for a swapbacked folio, so no shadow entry is created and __filemap_remove_folio(folio, NULL) simply empties the i_pages slot. The data is freed without ever being written to swap, and the next fault on that index returns a freshly zeroed folio. This is silent data loss for any process that keeps state in a MAP_SHARED tmpfs segment across an unmap - for example a cache handed from one process generation to the next through /dev/shm. It requires the folio to be PMD-mapped, so it only shows up once shmem THP is enabled (which is what we did in Meta fleet and started noticing crashes); with THP off the pte path transfers the dirty bit correctly. It also only becomes visible when swap is enabled, because with no swap device shmem folios (which are on the anon LRU) are not scanned by reclaim at all, so the clean folio is never dropped. Reproduced on x86_64 with a tmpfs mounted huge=within_size: read-fault a 2MB-backed region, write a known pattern through the resulting mapping, munmap, force reclaim of the cgroup, then re-map and read back. Without this patch the region reads back as zeros and vmstat shows zswpout 0 - the data was discarded rather than swapped. With this patch the region reads back correctly and the pages are swapped out as expected. With huge=never, or when the first touch is a write, the test passes either way.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/mempolicy: fix sleeping allocation in alloc_pages_bulk_weighted_interleave() syzbot reported a sleeping function called from invalid context splat in bucket_table_alloc(). When rhashtable_insert_slow() rehashes the table under rcu_read_lock(), it calls bucket_table_alloc(..., GFP_ATOMIC | __GFP_NOWARN). If the bucket table allocation uses vmalloc, __vmalloc_node_range_noprof() invokes vm_area_alloc_pages() -> alloc_pages_bulk_mempolicy_noprof() with the passed GFP_ATOMIC flags. If the current task has an MPOL_WEIGHTED_INTERLEAVE mempolicy, alloc_pages_bulk_weighted_interleave() is called and currently hardcodes GFP_KERNEL when allocating the temporary weights array, triggering a might_alloc() splat in atomic/RCU contexts. Pass the gfp flags (masked with GFP_RECLAIM_MASK to strip page-allocator zone modifiers like __GFP_HIGHMEM) received by alloc_pages_bulk_weighted_interleave() to kmalloc() instead of hardcoding GFP_KERNEL. Since the weights buffer is immediately initialized in full, kmalloc() is sufficient.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: memcg: keep folio's objcg same as its node memcg_reparent_objcgs() has an inherent assumption that a folio's objcg is the objcg of the folio's node. Folio migration across nodes breaks that assumption: the new folio simply inherits the old folio's objcg while living on a different node. Once the assumption is broken, the reparenting of the folio's objcg and the reparenting of the folio's LRU list are no longer atomic. memcg_reparent_objcgs() handles one node per iteration and drops all the locks in between, so the objcg gets reparented in the iteration for the objcg's node while the LRU list gets spliced in the iteration for the folio's node. Any LRU operation on that folio in between resolves its lruvec through the objcg, and thus takes the lru_lock of the wrong memcg, not the lru_lock of the list the folio is actually on. Fix this by selecting the objcg by folio_nid() at charge time, and by re-deriving it for the destination node in mem_cgroup_migrate() and mem_cgroup_replace_folio().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: perf/x86/intel: Fix kernel address leakages in LBR stack Before Arch LBR gained CPL filtering support, a user-only branch stack could still contain kernel addresses. As a result, kernel branch records may be exposed to user space even when PERF_SAMPLE_BRANCH_USER is requested. For example, on Intel Tiger Lake, the following command can still report SYSRET/ERET entries with kernel-space from addresses: $ ./perf record -e cycles:p -o - --branch-filter any,save_type,u -- \ ./perf bench syscall basic --loop 1000 | \ ./perf script -i - --fields brstack|tr ' ' '\n'| \ grep -E '0x[89a-f][0-9a-f]{15}' Total time: 0.000 [sec] 0.219000 usecs/op 4,566,210 ops/sec [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ] [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.551 MB - ] 0xffffffff93c001c8/0x7f12a2b1d647/P/-/-/16959/SYSRET/- 0xffffffff93c001c8/0x7f12a2b1d5c2/P/-/-/17535/SYSRET/- 0xffffffff93c01928/0x7f12a2861000/P/-/-/6719/ERET/- 0xffffffff93c01928/0x7f12a297a000/P/-/-/8575/ERET/- The problem is that intel_pmu_lbr_filter() does not fully validate the privilege level of sampled entries. It filters some mismatches based on the branch type and the to address, but it does not reject entries whose from address violates the requested branch privilege filter. Fix this by extending software filtering to validate both from and to addresses against br_sel. Any LBR entry contains kernel address does not match the requested user filter is dropped. This prevents kernel addresses from appearing in user-only branch stacks.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: i2c: core: fix debugfs UAF on adapter removal i2c_del_adapter() frees the adapter's debugfs directory before it unregisters the adapter device, but the new_device sysfs attribute stays writable until device_del(). A write racing with removal still reaches i2c_device_probe(), which passes the freed adap->debugfs to debugfs_create_dir() as the new client's parent: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in lookup_noperm_common+0x407/0x430 Read of size 4 at addr ffff88803ef87810 by task syz.0.61/6090 lookup_noperm_common+0x407/0x430 simple_start_creating+0x9c/0x110 debugfs_start_creating+0xdb/0x1a0 debugfs_create_dir+0x24/0x350 i2c_device_probe+0x814/0xbf0 It's technically possible to create a client after i2c_deregister_clients has run. That client will never be unregistered and make wait_for_completion hang. Close the window by removing the new_device attribute at the start of i2c_del_adapter(). device_remove_file() will drain any clients left.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: i2c: mux: Fix channel node leak on adapter add failure i2c_mux_add_adapter() takes a reference to the Device Tree channel node before registering the new adapter. If adapter registration fails, the error path frees the private data without dropping that reference. Release the channel node before freeing the private data.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: arm64: Don't read GMID_EL1 when MTE is disabled __cpuinfo_store_cpu() gates the GMID_EL1 read on the raw ID_AA64PFR1_EL1, so it reads the register even when the kernel has disabled MTE (CONFIG_ARM64_MTE=n or arm64.nomte). KVM sets HCR_EL2.TID5 in that case, and pKVM injects an UNDEF the host cannot handle: Internal error: Oops - Undefined instruction: 0000000002000000 [#1] SMP pc : __cpuinfo_store_cpu+0xf4/0x264 Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill the idle task! Only pKVM reaches it, and only after a CPU is offlined and brought back online: its CPU_ON relay sets the host HCR before the CPU enters EL1, while plain nVHE sets it at CPUHP_AP_KVM_ONLINE. Gate the read on the CPU's own ID_AA64PFR1_EL1 with the command-line override applied, and on CONFIG_ARM64_MTE, which no register reflects. The boot CPU stores its registers before init_cpu_features() strips an unsafe override, so clamp against the hardware value here too.
