| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm: memfd_luo: always dirty all folios
A dirty folio is one which has been written to. A clean folio is its
opposite. Since a clean folio has no user data, it can be freed under
memory pressure.
memfd preservation with LUO saves the flag at preserve(). This is
problematic. The folio might get dirtied later. Saving it at freeze()
also doesn't work, since the dirty bit from PTE is normally synced at
unmap and there might still be mappings of the file at freeze().
To see why this is a problem, say a folio is clean at preserve, but gets
dirtied later. The serialized state of the folio will mark it as clean.
After retrieve, the next kernel will see the folio as clean and might try
to reclaim it under memory pressure. This will result in losing user
data.
Mark all folios of the file as dirty, and always set the
MEMFD_LUO_FOLIO_DIRTY flag. This comes with the side effect of making all
clean folios un-reclaimable. This is a cost that has to be paid for
participants of live update. It is not expected to be a common use case
to preserve a lot of clean folios anyway.
Since the value of pfolio->flags is a constant now, drop the flags
variable and set it directly. |

sched_ext: Fix starvation of scx_enable() under fair-class saturation
During scx_enable(), the READY -> ENABLED task switching loop changes the
calling thread's sched_class from fair to ext. Since fair has higher
priority than ext, saturating fair-class workloads can indefinitely starve
the enable thread, hanging the system. This was introduced when the enable
path switched from preempt_disable() to scx_bypass() which doesn't protect
against fair-class starvation. Note that the original preempt_disable()
protection wasn't complete either - in partial switch modes, the calling
thread could still be starved after preempt_enable() as it may have been
switched to ext class.
Fix it by offloading the enable body to a dedicated system-wide RT
(SCHED_FIFO) kthread which cannot be starved by either fair or ext class
tasks. scx_enable() lazily creates the kthread on first use and passes the
ops pointer through a struct scx_enable_cmd containing the kthread_work,
then synchronously waits for completion.
The workfn runs on a different kthread from sch->helper (which runs
disable_work), so it can safely flush disable_work on the error path
without deadlock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clocksource/drivers/sh_tmu: Always leave device running after probe
The TMU device can be used as both a clocksource and a clockevent
provider. The driver tries to be smart and power itself on and off, as
well as enabling and disabling its clock when it's not in operation.
This behavior is slightly altered if the TMU is used as an early
platform device in which case the device is left powered on after probe,
but the clock is still enabled and disabled at runtime.
This has worked for a long time, but recent improvements in PREEMPT_RT
and PROVE_LOCKING have highlighted an issue. As the TMU registers itself
as a clockevent provider, clockevents_register_device(), it needs to use
raw spinlocks internally as this is the context of which the clockevent
framework interacts with the TMU driver. However in the context of
holding a raw spinlock the TMU driver can't really manage its power
state or clock with calls to pm_runtime_*() and clk_*() as these calls
end up in other platform drivers using regular spinlocks to control
power and clocks.
This mix of spinlock contexts trips a lockdep warning.

For non-PREEMPT_RT builds this is not really an issue, but for
PREEMPT_RT builds where normal spinlocks can sleep this might be an
issue. Be cautious and always leave the power and clock running after
probe. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: set backing store type from query type
bnxt_hwrm_func_backing_store_qcaps_v2() stores resp->type from the
firmware response in ctxm->type and later uses that value to index
fixed backing-store metadata arrays such as ctx_arr[] and
bnxt_bstore_to_trace[].
ctxm->type is fixed by the current backing-store query type and matches
the array index of ctx->ctx_arr. Set ctxm->type from the current loop
variable instead of depending on resp->type.
Also update the loop to advance type from next_valid_type in the for
statement, which keeps the control flow simpler for non-valid and
unchanged entries. |
| Use-after-free in the DOM: Networking component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 150.0.2, Firefox ESR 140.10.2, Firefox ESR 115.35.2, Thunderbird 150.0.2, and Thunderbird 140.10.2. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ring-buffer: Fix possible dereference of uninitialized pointer
There is a pointer head_page in rb_meta_validate_events() which is not
initialized at the beginning of a function. This pointer can be dereferenced
if there is a failure during reader page validation. In this case the control
is passed to "invalid" label where the pointer is dereferenced in a loop.
To fix the issue initialize orig_head and head_page before calling
rb_validate_buffer.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md-cluster: fix NULL pointer dereference in process_metadata_update
The function process_metadata_update() blindly dereferences the 'thread'
pointer (acquired via rcu_dereference_protected) within the wait_event()
macro.
While the code comment states "daemon thread must exist", there is a valid
race condition window during the MD array startup sequence (md_run):
1. bitmap_load() is called, which invokes md_cluster_ops->join().
2. join() starts the "cluster_recv" thread (recv_daemon).
3. At this point, recv_daemon is active and processing messages.
4. However, mddev->thread (the main MD thread) is not initialized until
later in md_run().
If a METADATA_UPDATED message is received from a remote node during this
specific window, process_metadata_update() will be called while
mddev->thread is still NULL, leading to a kernel panic.
To fix this, we must validate the 'thread' pointer. If it is NULL, we
release the held lock (no_new_dev_lockres) and return early, safely
ignoring the update request as the array is not yet fully ready to
process it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: roccat: fix use-after-free in roccat_report_event
roccat_report_event() iterates over the device->readers list without
holding the readers_lock. This allows a concurrent roccat_release() to
remove and free a reader while it's still being accessed, leading to a
use-after-free.
Protect the readers list traversal with the readers_lock mutex. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: clear cloned request bio pointer when last clone bio completes
Stale rq->bio values have been observed to cause double-initialization of
cloned bios in request-based device-mapper targets, leading to
use-after-free and double-free scenarios.
One such case occurs when using dm-multipath on top of a PCIe NVMe
namespace, where cloned request bios are freed during
blk_complete_request(), but rq->bio is left intact. Subsequent clone
teardown then attempts to free the same bios again via
blk_rq_unprep_clone().
The resulting double-free path looks like:
nvme_pci_complete_batch()
nvme_complete_batch()
blk_mq_end_request_batch()
blk_complete_request() // called on a DM clone request
bio_endio() // first free of all clone bios
...
rq->end_io() // end_clone_request()
dm_complete_request(tio->orig)
dm_softirq_done()
dm_done()
dm_end_request()
blk_rq_unprep_clone() // second free of clone bios
Fix this by clearing the clone request's bio pointer when the last cloned
bio completes, ensuring that later teardown paths do not attempt to free
already-released bios. |

usb: gadget: f_rndis: Protect RNDIS options with mutex
The class/subclass/protocol options are suspectible to race conditions
as they can be accessed concurrently through configfs.
Use existing mutex to protect these options. This issue was identified
during code inspection. |

usb: legacy: ncm: Fix NPE in gncm_bind
Commit 56a512a9b410 ("usb: gadget: f_ncm: align net_device lifecycle
with bind/unbind") deferred the allocation of the net_device. This
change leads to a NULL pointer dereference in the legacy NCM driver as
it attempts to access the net_device before it's fully instantiated.
Store the provided qmult, host_addr, and dev_addr into the struct
ncm_opts->net_opts during gncm_bind(). These values will be properly
applied to the net_device when it is allocated and configured later in
the binding process by the NCM function driver. |

---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---
The issue occurs because rsu_send_async_msg() fails when RSU is not enabled
in firmware, causing the channel to be freed via stratix10_svc_free_channel().
However, the probe function continues execution and registers
svc_normal_to_secure_thread(), which subsequently attempts to access the
already-freed channel, triggering the NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by properly cleaning up the async client and returning early on
failure, preventing the thread from being used with an invalid channel. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: use skb_header_pointer() for TCPv4 GSO frag_off check
Syzbot reported a KMSAN uninit-value warning in gso_features_check()
called from netif_skb_features() [1].
gso_features_check() reads iph->frag_off to decide whether to clear
mangleid_features. Accessing the IPv4 header via ip_hdr()/inner_ip_hdr()
can rely on skb header offsets that are not always safe for direct
dereference on packets injected from PF_PACKET paths.
Use skb_header_pointer() for the TCPv4 frag_off check so the header read
is robust whether data is already linear or needs copying.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/core: clear walk_control on inactive context in damos_walk()
damos_walk() sets ctx->walk_control to the caller-provided control
structure before checking whether the context is running. If the context
is inactive (damon_is_running() returns false), the function returns
-EINVAL without clearing ctx->walk_control. This leaves a dangling
pointer to a stack-allocated structure that will be freed when the caller
returns.
This is structurally identical to the bug fixed in commit f9132fbc2e83
("mm/damon/core: remove call_control in inactive contexts") for
damon_call(), which had the same pattern of linking a control object and
returning an error without unlinking it.
The dangling walk_control pointer can cause:
1. Use-after-free if the context is later started and kdamond
dereferences ctx->walk_control (e.g., in damos_walk_cancel()
which writes to control->canceled and calls complete())
2. Permanent -EBUSY from subsequent damos_walk() calls, since the
stale pointer is non-NULL
Nonetheless, the real user impact is quite restrictive. The
use-after-free is impossible because there is no damos_walk() callers who
starts the context later. The permanent -EBUSY can actually confuse
users, as DAMON is not running. But the symptom is kept only while the
context is turned off. Turning it on again will make DAMON internally
uses a newly generated damon_ctx object that doesn't have the invalid
damos_walk_control pointer, so everything will work fine again.
Fix this by clearing ctx->walk_control under walk_control_lock before
returning -EINVAL, mirroring the fix pattern from f9132fbc2e83. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: usbtmc: Flush anchored URBs in usbtmc_release
When calling usbtmc_release, pending anchored URBs must be flushed or
killed to prevent use-after-free errors (e.g. in the HCD giveback
path). Call usbtmc_draw_down() to allow anchored URBs to be completed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ctnetlink: zero expect NAT fields when CTA_EXPECT_NAT absent
ctnetlink_alloc_expect() allocates expectations from a non-zeroing
slab cache via nf_ct_expect_alloc(). When CTA_EXPECT_NAT is not
present in the netlink message, saved_addr and saved_proto are
never initialized. Stale data from a previous slab occupant can
then be dumped to userspace by ctnetlink_exp_dump_expect(), which
checks these fields to decide whether to emit CTA_EXPECT_NAT.
The safe sibling nf_ct_expect_init(), used by the packet path,
explicitly zeroes these fields.
Zero saved_addr, saved_proto and dir in the else branch, guarded
by IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NF_NAT) since these fields only exist when
NAT is enabled.
Confirmed by priming the expect slab with NAT-bearing expectations,
freeing them, creating a new expectation without CTA_EXPECT_NAT,
and observing that the ctnetlink dump emits a spurious
CTA_EXPECT_NAT containing stale data from the prior allocation. |

smb: server: fix use-after-free in smb2_open()
The opinfo pointer obtained via rcu_dereference(fp->f_opinfo) is

Bluetooth: SCO: fix race conditions in sco_sock_connect()
sco_sock_connect() checks sk_state and sk_type without holding
the socket lock. Two concurrent connect() syscalls on the same
socket can both pass the check and enter sco_connect(), leading
to use-after-free.
The buggy scenario involves three participants and was confirmed
with additional logging instrumentation:
Thread A (connect): HCI disconnect: Thread B (connect):
sco_sock_connect(sk) sco_sock_connect(sk)
sk_state==BT_OPEN sk_state==BT_OPEN
(pass, no lock) (pass, no lock)
sco_connect(sk): sco_connect(sk):
hci_dev_lock hci_dev_lock
hci_connect_sco <- blocked
-> hcon1
sco_conn_add->conn1
lock_sock(sk)
sco_chan_add:
conn1->sk = sk
sk->conn = conn1
sk_state=BT_CONNECT
release_sock
hci_dev_unlock
hci_dev_lock
sco_conn_del:
lock_sock(sk)
sco_chan_del:
sk->conn=NULL
conn1->sk=NULL
sk_state=
BT_CLOSED
SOCK_ZAPPED
release_sock
hci_dev_unlock
(unblocked)
hci_connect_sco
-> hcon2
sco_conn_add
-> conn2
lock_sock(sk)
sco_chan_add:
sk->conn=conn2
sk_state=
BT_CONNECT
// zombie sk!
release_sock
hci_dev_unlock
Thread B revives a BT_CLOSED + SOCK_ZAPPED socket back to
BT_CONNECT. Subsequent cleanup triggers double sock_put() and
use-after-free. Meanwhile conn1 is leaked as it was orphaned
when sco_conn_del() cleared the association.
Fix this by:
- Moving lock_sock() before the sk_state/sk_type checks in
sco_sock_connect() to serialize concurrent connect attempts
- Fixing the sk_type != SOCK_SEQPACKET check to actually
return the error instead of just assigning it
- Adding a state re-check in sco_connect() after lock_sock()
to catch state changes during the window between the locks
- Adding sco_pi(sk)->conn check in sco_chan_add() to prevent
double-attach of a socket to multiple connections
- Adding hci_conn_drop() on sco_chan_add failure to prevent
HCI connection leaks |

Bluetooth: hci_conn: fix potential UAF in set_cig_params_sync
hci_conn lookup and field access must be covered by hdev lock in
set_cig_params_sync, otherwise it's possible it is freed concurrently.
Take hdev lock to prevent hci_conn from being deleted or modified
concurrently. Just RCU lock is not suitable here, as we also want to
avoid "tearing" in the configuration. |

eventpoll: defer struct eventpoll free to RCU grace period

eventpoll struct while it still being used by another concurrent thread.
Defer the kfree() to an RCU callback to prevent UAF. |
