CVE-2026-33636 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 8.6

Description: LIBPNG is a reference library for use in applications that read, create, and manipulate PNG (Portable Network Graphics) raster image files. In versions 1.6.36 through 1.6.55, an out-of-bounds read and write exists in libpng's ARM/AArch64 Neon-optimized palette expansion path. When expanding 8-bit paletted rows to RGB or RGBA, the Neon loop processes a final partial chunk without verifying that enough input pixels remain. Because the implementation works backward from the end of the row, the final iteration dereferences pointers before the start of the row buffer (OOB read) and writes expanded pixel data to the same underflowed positions (OOB write). This is reachable via normal decoding of attacker-controlled PNG input if Neon is enabled. Version 1.6.56 fixes the issue.

CVE-2026-31402 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 8.2

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:nfsd: fix heap overflow in NFSv4.0 LOCK replay cacheThe NFSv4.0 replay cache uses a fixed 112-byte inline buffer(rp_ibuf[NFSD4_REPLAY_ISIZE]) to store encoded operation responses.This size was calculated based on OPEN responses and does not accountfor LOCK denied responses, which include the conflicting lock owner asa variable-length field up to 1024 bytes (NFS4_OPAQUE_LIMIT).When a LOCK operation is denied due to a conflict with an existing lockthat has a large owner, nfsd4_encode_operation() copies the full encodedresponse into the undersized replay buffer via read_bytes_from_xdr_buf()with no bounds check. This results in a slab-out-of-bounds write of upto 944 bytes past the end of the buffer, corrupting adjacent heap memory.This can be triggered remotely by an unauthenticated attacker with twocooperating NFSv4.0 clients: one sets a lock with a large owner string,then the other requests a conflicting lock to provoke the denial.We could fix this by increasing NFSD4_REPLAY_ISIZE to allow for a fullopaque, but that would increase the size of every stateowner, when mostlockowners are not that large.Instead, fix this by checking the encoded response length againstNFSD4_REPLAY_ISIZE before copying into the replay buffer. If theresponse is too large, set rp_buflen to 0 to skip caching the replaypayload. The status is still cached, and the client already received thecorrect response on the original request.

CVE-2026-34982 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 8.2

Description: Vim is an open source, command line text editor. Prior to version 9.2.0276, a modeline sandbox bypass in Vim allows arbitrary OS command execution when a user opens a crafted file. The `complete`, `guitabtooltip` and `printheader` options are missing the `P_MLE` flag, allowing a modeline to be executed. Additionally, the `mapset()` function lacks a `check_secure()` call, allowing it to be abused from sandboxed expressions. Commit 9.2.0276 fixes the issue.

CVE-2026-33186 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 8.1

Description: gRPC-Go is the Go language implementation of gRPC. Versions prior to 1.79.3 have an authorization bypass resulting from improper input validation of the HTTP/2 `:path` pseudo-header. The gRPC-Go server was too lenient in its routing logic, accepting requests where the `:path` omitted the mandatory leading slash (e.g., `Service/Method` instead of `/Service/Method`). While the server successfully routed these requests to the correct handler, authorization interceptors (including the official `grpc/authz` package) evaluated the raw, non-canonical path string. Consequently, "deny" rules defined using canonical paths (starting with `/`) failed to match the incoming request, allowing it to bypass the policy if a fallback "allow" rule was present. This affects gRPC-Go servers that use path-based authorization interceptors, such as the official RBAC implementation in `google.golang.org/grpc/authz` or custom interceptors relying on `info.FullMethod` or `grpc.Method(ctx)`; AND that have a security policy contains specific "deny" rules for canonical paths but allows other requests by default (a fallback "allow" rule). The vulnerability is exploitable by an attacker who can send raw HTTP/2 frames with malformed `:path` headers directly to the gRPC server. The fix in version 1.79.3 ensures that any request with a `:path` that does not start with a leading slash is immediately rejected with a `codes.Unimplemented` error, preventing it from reaching authorization interceptors or handlers with a non-canonical path string. While upgrading is the most secure and recommended path, users can mitigate the vulnerability using one of the following methods: Use a validating interceptor (recommended mitigation); infrastructure-level normalization; and/or policy hardening.

CVE-2026-33416 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 8.1

Description: LIBPNG is a reference library for use in applications that read, create, and manipulate PNG (Portable Network Graphics) raster image files. In versions 1.2.1 through 1.6.55, `png_set_tRNS` and `png_set_PLTE` each alias a heap-allocated buffer between `png_struct` and `png_info`, sharing a single allocation across two structs with independent lifetimes. The `trans_alpha` aliasing has been present since at least libpng 1.0, and the `palette` aliasing since at least 1.2.1. Both affect all prior release lines `png_set_tRNS` sets `png_ptr->trans_alpha = info_ptr->trans_alpha` (256-byte buffer) and `png_set_PLTE` sets `info_ptr->palette = png_ptr->palette` (768-byte buffer). In both cases, calling `png_free_data` (with `PNG_FREE_TRNS` or `PNG_FREE_PLTE`) frees the buffer through `info_ptr` while the corresponding `png_ptr` pointer remains dangling. Subsequent row-transform functions dereference and, in some code paths, write to the freed memory. A second call to `png_set_tRNS` or `png_set_PLTE` has the same effect, because both functions call `png_free_data` internally before reallocating the `info_ptr` buffer. Version 1.6.56 fixes the issue.

CVE-2026-6100 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 8.1

Description: Use-after-free (UAF) was possible in the `lzma.LZMADecompressor`, `bz2.BZ2Decompressor`, and `gzip.GzipFile` when a memory allocation fails with a `MemoryError` and the decompression instance is re-used. This scenario can be triggered if the process is under memory pressure. The fix cleans up the dangling pointer in this specific error condition.The vulnerability is only present if the program re-uses decompressor instances across multiple decompression calls even after a `MemoryError` is raised during decompression. Using the helper functions to one-shot decompress data such as `lzma.decompress()`, `bz2.decompress()`, `gzip.decompress()`, and `zlib.decompress()` are not affected as a new decompressor instance is used per call. If the decompressor instance is not re-used after an error condition, this usage is similarly not vulnerable.

CVE-2025-45582 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.8

Description: GNU Tar through 1.35 allows file overwrite via directory traversal in crafted TAR archives, with a certain two-step process. First, the victim must extract an archive that contains a ../ symlink to a critical directory. Second, the victim must extract an archive that contains a critical file, specified via a relative pathname that begins with the symlink name and ends with that critical file's name. Here, the extraction follows the symlink and overwrites the critical file. This bypasses the protection mechanism of "Member name contains '..'" that would occur for a single TAR archive that attempted to specify the critical file via a ../ approach. For example, the first archive can contain "x -> ../../../../../home/victim/.ssh" and the second archive can contain x/authorized_keys. This can affect server applications that automatically extract any number of user-supplied TAR archives, and were relying on the blocking of traversal. This can also affect software installation processes in which "tar xf" is run more than once (e.g., when installing a package can automatically install two dependencies that are set up as untrusted tarballs instead of official packages). NOTE: the official GNU Tar manual has an otherwise-empty directory for each "tar xf" in its Security Rules of Thumb; however, third-party advice leads users to run "tar xf" more than once into the same directory.

Description: Go JOSE provides an implementation of the Javascript Object Signing and Encryption set of standards in Go, including support for JSON Web Encryption (JWE), JSON Web Signature (JWS), and JSON Web Token (JWT) standards. In versions on the 4.x branch prior to version 4.0.5, when parsing compact JWS or JWE input, Go JOSE could use excessive memory. The code used strings.Split(token, ".") to split JWT tokens, which is vulnerable to excessive memory consumption when processing maliciously crafted tokens with a large number of `.` characters. An attacker could exploit this by sending numerous malformed tokens, leading to memory exhaustion and a Denial of Service. Version 4.0.5 fixes this issue. As a workaround, applications could pre-validate that payloads passed to Go JOSE do not contain an excessive number of `.` characters.

CVE-2026-27135 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.5

Description: nghttp2 is an implementation of the Hypertext Transfer Protocol version 2 in C. Prior to version 1.68.1, the nghttp2 library stops reading the incoming data when user facing public API `nghttp2_session_terminate_session` or `nghttp2_session_terminate_session2` is called by the application. They might be called internally by the library when it detects the situation that is subject to connection error. Due to the missing internal state validation, the library keeps reading the rest of the data after one of those APIs is called. Then receiving a malformed frame that causes FRAME_SIZE_ERROR causes assertion failure. nghttp2 v1.68.1 adds missing state validation to avoid assertion failure. No known workarounds are available.

Description: Issue summary: When a delta CRL that contains a Delta CRL Indicator extensionis processed a NULL pointer dereference might happen if the required CRLNumber extension is missing.Impact summary: A NULL pointer dereference can trigger a crash whichleads to a Denial of Service for an application.When CRL processing and delta CRL processing is enabled during X.509certificate verification, the delta CRL processing does not checkwhether the CRL Number extension is NULL before dereferencing it.When a malformed delta CRL file is being processed, this parametercan be NULL, causing a NULL pointer dereference.Exploiting this issue requires the X509_V_FLAG_USE_DELTAS flag to be enabled inthe verification context, the certificate being verified to contain afreshestCRL extension or the base CRL to have the EXFLAG_FRESHEST flag set, andan attacker to provide a malformed CRL to an application that processes it.The vulnerability is limited to Denial of Service and cannot be escalated toachieve code execution or memory disclosure. For that reason the issue wasassessed as Low severity according to our Security Policy.The FIPS modules in 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3 and 3.0 are not affected by this issue,as the affected code is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.

CVE-2026-30922 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.5

Description: pyasn1 is a generic ASN.1 library for Python. Prior to 0.6.3, the `pyasn1` library is vulnerable to a Denial of Service (DoS) attack caused by uncontrolled recursion when decoding ASN.1 data with deeply nested structures. An attacker can supply a crafted payload containing thousands of nested `SEQUENCE` (`0x30`) or `SET` (`0x31`) tags with "Indefinite Length" (`0x80`) markers. This forces the decoder to recursively call itself until the Python interpreter crashes with a `RecursionError` or consumes all available memory (OOM), crashing the host application. This is a distinct vulnerability from CVE-2026-23490 (which addressed integer overflows in OID decoding). The fix for CVE-2026-23490 (`MAX_OID_ARC_CONTINUATION_OCTETS`) does not mitigate this recursion issue. Version 0.6.3 fixes this specific issue.

Description: Issue summary: Converting an excessively large OCTET STRING value toa hexadecimal string leads to a heap buffer overflow on 32 bit platforms.Impact summary: A heap buffer overflow may lead to a crash or possiblyan attacker controlled code execution or other undefined behavior.If an attacker can supply a crafted X.509 certificate with an excessivelylarge OCTET STRING value in extensions such as the Subject Key Identifier(SKID) or Authority Key Identifier (AKID) which are being converted to hex,the size of the buffer needed for the result is calculated as multiplicationof the input length by 3. On 32 bit platforms, this multiplication may overflowresulting in the allocation of a smaller buffer and a heap buffer overflow.Applications and services that print or log contents of untrusted X.509certificates are vulnerable to this issue. As the certificates would haveto have sizes of over 1 Gigabyte, printing or logging such certificatesis a fairly unlikely operation and only 32 bit platforms are affected,this issue was assigned Low severity.The FIPS modules in 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3 and 3.0 are not affected by thisissue, as the affected code is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.

CVE-2026-23191 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.1

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ALSA: aloop: Fix racy access at PCM triggerThe PCM trigger callback of aloop driver tries to check the PCM stateand stop the stream of the tied substream in the corresponding cable.Since both check and stop operations are performed outside the cablelock, this may result in UAF when a program attempts to triggerfrequently while opening/closing the tied stream, as spotted byfuzzers.For addressing the UAF, this patch changes two things:- It covers the most of code in loopback_check_format() with cable->lock spinlock, and add the proper NULL checks. This avoids already some racy accesses.- In addition, now we try to check the state of the capture PCM stream that may be stopped in this function, which was the major pain point leading to UAF.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:rxrpc: Fix recvmsg() unconditional requeueIf rxrpc_recvmsg() fails because MSG_DONTWAIT was specified but the call atthe front of the recvmsg queue already has its mutex locked, it requeuesthe call - whether or not the call is already queued. The call may be onthe queue because MSG_PEEK was also passed and so the call was not dequeuedor because the I/O thread requeued it.The unconditional requeue may then corrupt the recvmsg queue, leading tothings like UAFs or refcount underruns.Fix this by only requeuing the call if it isn't already on the queue - andmoving it to the front if it is already queued. If we don't queue it, wehave to put the ref we obtained by dequeuing it.Also, MSG_PEEK doesn't dequeue the call so shouldn't callrxrpc_notify_socket() for the call if we didn't use up all the data on thequeue, so fix that also.

A concurrent dump can still be walking the chain when the error path frees it. 2) Packet path: for NFPROTO_INET, nf_register_net_hook() briefly installs the IPv4 hook before IPv6 registration fails. Packets entering nft_do_chain() via the transient IPv4 hook can still be dereferencing chain->blob_gen_X when the error path frees the chain.Add synchronize_rcu() between nft_chain_del() and the chain destroyso that all RCU readers -- both dump threads and in-flight packetevaluation -- have finished before the chain is freed.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:tls: Fix race condition in tls_sw_cancel_work_tx()This issue was discovered during a code audit.After cancel_delayed_work_sync() is called from tls_sk_proto_close(),tx_work_handler() can still be scheduled from paths such as theDelayed ACK handler or ksoftirqd.As a result, the tx_work_handler() worker may dereference a freedTLS object.The following is a simple race scenario: cpu0 cpu1tls_sk_proto_close() tls_sw_cancel_work_tx() tls_write_space() tls_sw_write_space() if (!test_and_set_bit(BIT_TX_SCHEDULED, &tx_ctx->tx_bitmask)) set_bit(BIT_TX_SCHEDULED, &ctx->tx_bitmask); cancel_delayed_work_sync(&ctx->tx_work.work); schedule_delayed_work(&tx_ctx->tx_work.work, 0);To prevent this race condition, cancel_delayed_work_sync() isreplaced with disable_delayed_work_sync().

CVE-2026-23248 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.0

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:perf/core: Fix refcount bug and potential UAF in perf_mmapSyzkaller reported a refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free warningin perf_mmap.The issue is caused by a race condition between a failing mmap() setupand a concurrent mmap() on a dependent event (e.g., using outputredirection).In perf_mmap(), the ring_buffer (rb) is allocated and assigned toevent->rb with the mmap_mutex held. The mutex is then released toperform map_range().If map_range() fails, perf_mmap_close() is called to clean up.However, since the mutex was dropped, another thread attaching tothis event (via inherited events or output redirection) can acquirethe mutex, observe the valid event->rb pointer, and attempt toincrement its reference count. If the cleanup path has alreadydropped the reference count to zero, this results in ause-after-free or refcount saturation warning.Fix this by extending the scope of mmap_mutex to cover themap_range() call. This ensures that the ring buffer initializationand mapping (or cleanup on failure) happens atomically effectively,preventing other threads from accessing a half-initialized ordying ring buffer.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:apparmor: fix unprivileged local user can do privileged policy managementAn unprivileged local user can load, replace, and remove profiles byopening the apparmorfs interfaces, via a confused deputy attack, bypassing the opened fd to a privileged process, and getting theprivileged process to write to the interface.This does require a privileged target that can be manipulated to dothe write for the unprivileged process, but once such access isachieved full policy management is possible and all the possibleimplications that implies: removing confinement, DoS of system ortarget applications by denying all execution, by-passing theunprivileged user namespace restriction, to exploiting kernel bugs fora local privilege escalation.The policy management interface can not have its permissions simplychanged from 0666 to 0600 because non-root processes need to be ableto load policy to different policy namespaces.Instead ensure the task writing the interface has privileges thatare a subset of the task that opened the interface. This is alreadydone via policy for confined processes, but unconfined can delegateaccess to the opened fd, by-passing the usual policy check.

CVE-2026-23450 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.0

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net/smc: fix NULL dereference and UAF in smc_tcp_syn_recv_sock()Syzkaller reported a panic in smc_tcp_syn_recv_sock() [1].smc_tcp_syn_recv_sock() is called in the TCP receive path(softirq) via icsk_af_ops->syn_recv_sock on the clcsock (TCPlistening socket). It reads sk_user_data to get the smc_sockpointer. However, when the SMC listen socket is being closedconcurrently, smc_close_active() sets clcsock->sk_user_datato NULL under sk_callback_lock, and then the smc_sock itselfcan be freed via sock_put() in smc_release().This leads to two issues:1) NULL pointer dereference: sk_user_data is NULL when accessed.2) Use-after-free: sk_user_data is read as non-NULL, but the smc_sock is freed before its fields (e.g., queued_smc_hs, ori_af_ops) are accessed.The race window looks like this (the syzkaller crash [1]triggers via the SYN cookie path: tcp_get_cookie_sock() ->smc_tcp_syn_recv_sock(), but the normal tcp_check_req() pathhas the same race): CPU A (softirq) CPU B (process ctx) tcp_v4_rcv() TCP_NEW_SYN_RECV: sk = req->rsk_listener sock_hold(sk) /* No lock on listener */ smc_close_active(): write_lock_bh(cb_lock) sk_user_data = NULL write_unlock_bh(cb_lock) ... smc_clcsock_release() sock_put(smc->sk) x2 -> smc_sock freed! tcp_check_req() smc_tcp_syn_recv_sock(): smc = user_data(sk) -> NULL or dangling smc->queued_smc_hs -> crash!Note that the clcsock and smc_sock are two independent objectswith separate refcounts. TCP stack holds a reference on theclcsock, which keeps it alive, but this does NOT prevent thesmc_sock from being freed.Fix this by using RCU and refcount_inc_not_zero() to safelyaccess smc_sock. Since smc_tcp_syn_recv_sock() is called inthe TCP three-way handshake path, taking read_lock_bh onsk_callback_lock is too heavy and would not survive a SYNflood attack. Using rcu_read_lock() is much more lightweight.- Set SOCK_RCU_FREE on the SMC listen socket so that smc_sock freeing is deferred until after the RCU grace period. This guarantees the memory is still valid when accessed inside rcu_read_lock().- Use rcu_read_lock() to protect reading sk_user_data.- Use refcount_inc_not_zero(&smc->sk.sk_refcnt) to pin the smc_sock. If the refcount has already reached zero (close path completed), it returns false and we bail out safely.Note: smc_hs_congested() has a similar lockless read ofsk_user_data without rcu_read_lock(), but it only checks forNULL and accesses the global smc_hs_wq, never dereferencingany smc_sock field, so it is not affected.Reproducer was verified with mdelay injection and smc_run,the issue no longer occurs with this patch applied.[1] https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=827ae2bfb3a3529333e9

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:netfilter: ctnetlink: fix use-after-free in ctnetlink_dump_exp_ct()ctnetlink_dump_exp_ct() stores a conntrack pointer in cb->data for thenetlink dump callback ctnetlink_exp_ct_dump_table(), but drops theconntrack reference immediately after netlink_dump_start(). When thedump spans multiple rounds, the second recvmsg() triggers the dumpcallback which dereferences the now-freed conntrack via nfct_help(ct),leading to a use-after-free on ct->ext.The bug is that the netlink_dump_control has no .start or .donecallbacks to manage the conntrack reference across dump rounds. Otherdump functions in the same file (e.g. ctnetlink_get_conntrack) properlyuse .start/.done callbacks for this purpose.Fix this by adding .start and .done callbacks that hold and release theconntrack reference for the duration of the dump, and move thenfct_help() call after the cb->args[0] early-return check in the dumpcallback to avoid dereferencing ct->ext unnecessarily.

CVE-2026-31403 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.0

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:NFSD: Hold net reference for the lifetime of /proc/fs/nfs/exports fdThe /proc/fs/nfs/exports proc entry is created at module initand persists for the module's lifetime. exports_proc_open()captures the caller's current network namespace and storesits svc_export_cache in seq->private, but takes no referenceon the namespace. If the namespace is subsequently torn down(e.g. container destruction after the opener does setns() to adifferent namespace), nfsd_net_exit() calls nfsd_export_shutdown()which frees the cache. Subsequent reads on the still-open fddereference the freed cache_detail, walking a freed hash table.Hold a reference on the struct net for the lifetime of the openfile descriptor. This prevents nfsd_net_exit() from running --and thus prevents nfsd_export_shutdown() from freeing the cache-- while any exports fd is open. cache_detail already storesits net pointer (cd->net, set by cache_create_net()), soexports_release() can retrieve it without additional per-filestorage.

CVE-2026-5958 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.9

Description: When sed is invoked with both -i (in-place edit) and --follow-symlinks, the function open_next_file() performs two separate, non-atomic filesystem operations on the same path: 1. resolves symlink to its target and stores the resolved path for determining when output is written,2. opens the original symlink path (not the resolved one) to read the file. Between these two calls there is a race window. If an attacker atomically replaces the symlink with a different target during that window, sed will: read content from the new (attacker-chosen) symlink target and write the processed result to the path recorded in step 1. This can lead to arbitrary file overwrite with attacker-controlled content in the context of the sed process.This issue was fixed in version 4.10.

CVE-2026-32316 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.8

Description: jq is a command-line JSON processor. An integer overflow vulnerability exists through version 1.8.1 within the jvp_string_append() and jvp_string_copy_replace_bad functions, where concatenating strings with a combined length exceeding 2^31 bytes causes a 32-bit unsigned integer overflow in the buffer allocation size calculation, resulting in a drastically undersized heap buffer. Subsequent memory copy operations then write the full string data into this undersized buffer, causing a heap buffer overflow classified as CWE-190 (Integer Overflow) leading to CWE-122 (Heap-based Buffer Overflow). Any system evaluating untrusted jq queries is affected, as an attacker can crash the process or potentially achieve further exploitation through heap corruption by crafting queries that produce extremely large strings. The root cause is the absence of string size bounds checking, unlike arrays and objects which already have size limits. The issue has been addressed in commit e47e56d226519635768e6aab2f38f0ab037c09e5.

CVE-2026-5928 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.8

Description: Calling the ungetwc function on a FILE stream with wide characters encoded in a character set that has overlaps between its single byte and multi-byte character encodings, in the GNU C Library version 2.43 or earlier, may result in an attempt to read bytes before an allocated buffer, potentially resulting in unintentional disclosure of neighboring data in the heap, or a program crash.A bug in the wide character pushback implementation (_IO_wdefault_pbackfail in libio/wgenops.c) causes ungetwc() to operate on the regular character buffer (fp->_IO_read_ptr) instead of the actual wide-stream read pointer (fp->_wide_data->_IO_read_ptr). The program crash may happen in cases where fp->_IO_read_ptr is not initialized and hence points to NULL. The buffer under-read requires a special situation where the input character encoding is such that there are overlaps between single byte representations and multibyte representations in that encoding, resulting in spurious matches. The spurious match case is not possible in the standard Unicode character sets.

CVE-2026-22980 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.7

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:nfsd: provide locking for v4_end_graceWriting to v4_end_grace can race with server shutdown and result inmemory being accessed after it was freed - reclaim_str_hashtbl inparticularly.We cannot hold nfsd_mutex across the nfsd4_end_grace() call as that isheld while client_tracking_op->init() is called and that can wait foran upcall to nfsdcltrack which can write to v4_end_grace, resulting in adeadlock.nfsd4_end_grace() is also called by the landromat work queue and thisdoesn't require locking as server shutdown will stop the work and waitfor it before freeing anything that nfsd4_end_grace() might access.However, we must be sure that writing to v4_end_grace doesn't restartthe work item after shutdown has already waited for it. For this weadd a new flag protected with nn->client_lock. It is set only while itis safe to make client tracking calls, and v4_end_grace only scheduleswork while the flag is set with the spinlock held.So this patch adds a nfsd_net field "client_tracking_active" which isset as described. Another field "grace_end_forced", is set whenv4_end_grace is written. After this is set, and providingclient_tracking_active is set, the laundromat is scheduled.This "grace_end_forced" field bypasses other checks for whether thegrace period has finished.This resolves a race which can result in use-after-free.

CVE-2025-71113 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.6

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:crypto: af_alg - zero initialize memory allocated via sock_kmallocSeveral crypto user API contexts and requests allocated withsock_kmalloc() were left uninitialized, relying on callers toset fields explicitly. This resulted in the use of uninitializeddata in certain error paths or when new fields are added in thefuture.The ACVP patches also contain two user-space interface files:algif_kpp.c and algif_akcipher.c. These too rely on properinitialization of their context structures.A particular issue has been observed with the newly added'inflight' variable introduced in af_alg_ctx by commit: 67b164a871af ("crypto: af_alg - Disallow multiple in-flight AIO requests")Because the context is not memset to zero after allocation,the inflight variable has contained garbage values. As a result,af_alg_alloc_areq() has incorrectly returned -EBUSY randomly whenthe garbage value was interpreted as true: https://github.com/gregkh/linux/blame/master/crypto/af_alg.c#L1209The check directly tests ctx->inflight without explicitlycomparing against true/false. Since inflight is only ever set totrue or false later, an uninitialized value has triggered-EBUSY failures. Zero-initializing memory allocated withsock_kmalloc() ensures inflight and other fields start in a knownstate, removing random issues caused by uninitialized data.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:vsock/virtio: Coalesce only linear skbvsock/virtio common tries to coalesce buffers in rx queue: if a linear skb(with a spare tail room) is followed by a small skb (length limited byGOOD_COPY_LEN = 128), an attempt is made to join them.Since the introduction of MSG_ZEROCOPY support, assumption that a small skbwill always be linear is incorrect. In the zerocopy case, data is lost andthe linear skb is appended with uninitialized kernel memory.Of all 3 supported virtio-based transports, only loopback-transport isaffected. G2H virtio-transport rx queue operates on explicitly linear skbs;see virtio_vsock_alloc_linear_skb() in virtio_vsock_rx_fill(). H2Gvhost-transport may allocate non-linear skbs, but only for sizes that arenot considered for coalescence; see PAGE_ALLOC_COSTLY_ORDER invirtio_vsock_alloc_skb().Ensure only linear skbs are coalesced. Note that skb_tailroom(last_skb) > 0guarantees last_skb is linear.

CVE-2025-71104 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:KVM: x86: Fix VM hard lockup after prolonged inactivity with periodic HV timerWhen advancing the target expiration for the guest's APIC timer in periodicmode, set the expiration to "now" if the target expiration is in the past(similar to what is done in update_target_expiration()). Blindly addingthe period to the previous target expiration can result in KVM generatinga practically unbounded number of hrtimer IRQs due to programming anexpired timer over and over. In extreme scenarios, e.g. if userspacepauses/suspends a VM for an extended duration, this can even cause hardlockups in the host.Currently, the bug only affects Intel CPUs when using the hypervisor timer(HV timer), a.k.a. the VMX preemption timer. Unlike the software timer,a.k.a. hrtimer, which KVM keeps running even on exits to userspace, theHV timer only runs while the guest is active. As a result, if the vCPUdoes not run for an extended duration, there will be a huge gap betweenthe target expiration and the current time the vCPU resumes running.Because the target expiration is incremented by only one period on eachtimer expiration, this leads to a series of timer expirations occurringrapidly after the vCPU/VM resumes.More critically, when the vCPU first triggers a periodic HV timerexpiration after resuming, advancing the expiration by only one periodwill result in a target expiration in the past. As a result, the deltamay be calculated as a negative value. When the delta is converted intoan absolute value (tscdeadline is an unsigned u64), the resulting valuecan overflow what the HV timer is capable of programming. I.e. the largevalue will exceed the VMX Preemption Timer's maximum bit width ofcpu_preemption_timer_multi + 32, and thus cause KVM to switch from theHV timer to the software timer (hrtimers).After switching to the software timer, periodic timer expiration callbacksmay be executed consecutively within a single clock interrupt handler,because hrtimers honors KVM's request for an expiration in the past andimmediately re-invokes KVM's callback after reprogramming. And becausethe interrupt handler runs with IRQs disabled, restarting KVM's hrtimerover and over until the target expiration is advanced to "now" can resultin a hard lockup.E.g. the following hard lockup was triggered in the host when running aWindows VM (only relevant because it used the APIC timer in periodic mode)after resuming the VM from a long suspend (in the host).

CVE-2026-23086 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:vsock/virtio: cap TX credit to local buffer sizeThe virtio transports derives its TX credit directly from peer_buf_alloc,which is set from the remote endpoint's SO_VM_SOCKETS_BUFFER_SIZE value.On the host side this means that the amount of data we are willing toqueue for a connection is scaled by a guest-chosen buffer size, ratherthan the host's own vsock configuration. A malicious guest can advertisea large buffer and read slowly, causing the host to allocate acorrespondingly large amount of sk_buff memory.The same thing would happen in the guest with a malicious host, sincevirtio transports share the same code base.Introduce a small helper, virtio_transport_tx_buf_size(), thatreturns min(peer_buf_alloc, buf_alloc), and use it wherever we consumepeer_buf_alloc.This ensures the effective TX window is bounded by both the peer'sadvertised buffer and our own buf_alloc (already clamped tobuffer_max_size via SO_VM_SOCKETS_BUFFER_MAX_SIZE), so a remote peercannot force the other to queue more data than allowed by its ownvsock settings.On an unpatched Ubuntu 22.04 host (~64 GiB RAM), running a PoC with32 guest vsock connections advertising 2 GiB each and reading slowlydrove Slab/SUnreclaim from ~0.5 GiB to ~57 GiB; the system onlyrecovered after killing the QEMU process. That said, if QEMU memory islimited with cgroups, the maximum memory used will be limited.With this patch applied: Before: MemFree: ~61.6 GiB Slab: ~142 MiB SUnreclaim: ~117 MiB After 32 high-credit connections: MemFree: ~61.5 GiB Slab: ~178 MiB SUnreclaim: ~152 MiBOnly ~35 MiB increase in Slab/SUnreclaim, no host OOM, and the guestremains responsive.Compatibility with non-virtio transports: - VMCI uses the AF_VSOCK buffer knobs to size its queue pairs per socket based on the local vsk->buffer_* values; the remote side cannot enlarge those queues beyond what the local endpoint configured. - Hyper-V's vsock transport uses fixed-size VMBus ring buffers and an MTU bound; there is no peer-controlled credit field comparable to peer_buf_alloc, and the remote endpoint cannot drive in-flight kernel memory above those ring sizes. - The loopback path reuses virtio_transport_common.c, so it naturally follows the same semantics as the virtio transport.This change is limited to virtio_transport_common.c and thus affectsvirtio-vsock, vhost-vsock, and loopback, bringing them in line with the"remote window intersected with local policy" behaviour that VMCI andHyper-V already effectively have.[Stefano: small adjustments after changing the previous patch][Stefano: tweak the commit message]

CVE-2026-23276 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: add xmit recursion limit to tunnel xmit functionsTunnel xmit functions (iptunnel_xmit, ip6tunnel_xmit) lack their ownrecursion limit. When a bond device in broadcast mode has GRE tapinterfaces as slaves, and those GRE tunnels route back through thebond, multicast/broadcast traffic triggers infinite recursion betweenbond_xmit_broadcast() and ip_tunnel_xmit()/ip6_tnl_xmit(), causingkernel stack overflow.The existing XMIT_RECURSION_LIMIT (8) in the no-qdisc path is notsufficient because tunnel recursion involves route lookups and full IPoutput, consuming much more stack per level. Use a lower limit of 4(IP_TUNNEL_RECURSION_LIMIT) to prevent overflow.Add recursion detection using dev_xmit_recursion helpers directly iniptunnel_xmit() and ip6tunnel_xmit() to cover all IPv4/IPv6 tunnelpaths including UDP encapsulated tunnels (VXLAN, Geneve, etc.).Move dev_xmit_recursion helpers from net/core/dev.h to public headerinclude/linux/netdevice.h so they can be used by tunnel code.

When called frommesh_rx_csa_frame(), the parsed action-frame elements may not contain aMesh Configuration IE, leaving ie->mesh_config NULL and triggering akernel NULL pointer dereference.The other two callers are already safe: - ieee80211_mesh_rx_bcn_presp() checks !elems->mesh_config before calling mesh_matches_local() - mesh_plink_get_event() is only reached through mesh_process_plink_frame(), which checks !elems->mesh_config, toomesh_rx_csa_frame() is the only caller that passes raw parsed elementsto mesh_matches_local() without guarding mesh_config.

CVE-2026-24401 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.5

Description: Avahi is a system which facilitates service discovery on a local network via the mDNS/DNS-SD protocol suite. In versions 0.9rc2 and below, avahi-daemon can be crashed via a segmentation fault by sending an unsolicited mDNS response containing a recursive CNAME record, where the alias and canonical name point to the same domain (e.g., "h.local" as a CNAME for "h.local"). This causes unbounded recursion in the lookup_handle_cname function, leading to stack exhaustion. The vulnerability affects record browsers where AVAHI_LOOKUP_USE_MULTICAST is set explicitly, which includes record browsers created by resolvers used by nss-mdns. This issue is patched in commit 78eab31128479f06e30beb8c1cbf99dd921e2524.

CVE-2026-28387 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.5

Description: Issue summary: An uncommon configuration of clients performing DANE TLSA-basedserver authentication, when paired with uncommon server DANE TLSA records, mayresult in a use-after-free and/or double-free on the client side.Impact summary: A use after free can have a range of potential consequencessuch as the corruption of valid data, crashes or execution of arbitrary code.However, the issue only affects clients that make use of TLSA records with boththe PKIX-TA(0/PKIX-EE(1) certificate usages and the DANE-TA(2) certificateusage.By far the most common deployment of DANE is in SMTP MTAs for which RFC7672recommends that clients treat as 'unusable' any TLSA records that have the PKIXcertificate usages. These SMTP (or other similar) clients are not vulnerableto this issue. Conversely, any clients that support only the PKIX usages, andignore the DANE-TA(2) usage are also not vulnerable.The client would also need to be communicating with a server that publishes aTLSA RRset with both types of TLSA records.No FIPS modules are affected by this issue, the problem code is outside theFIPS module boundary.

CVE-2026-31790 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.5

Description: Issue summary: Applications using RSASVE key encapsulation to establisha secret encryption key can send contents of an uninitialized memory buffer toa malicious peer.Impact summary: The uninitialized buffer might contain sensitive data from theprevious execution of the application process which leads to sensitive dataleakage to an attacker.RSA_public_encrypt() returns the number of bytes written on success and -1on error. The affected code tests only whether the return value is non-zero.As a result, if RSA encryption fails, encapsulation can still return success tothe caller, set the output lengths, and leave the caller to use the contents ofthe ciphertext buffer as if a valid KEM ciphertext had been produced.If applications use EVP_PKEY_encapsulate() with RSA/RSASVE on anattacker-supplied invalid RSA public key without first validating that key,then this may cause stale or uninitialized contents of the caller-providedciphertext buffer to be disclosed to the attacker in place of the KEMciphertext.As a workaround calling EVP_PKEY_public_check() orEVP_PKEY_public_check_quick() before EVP_PKEY_encapsulate() will mitigatethe issue.The FIPS modules in 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.1 and 3.0 are affected by this issue.

CVE-2026-3497 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.5

Description: Vulnerability in the OpenSSH GSSAPI delta included in various Linux distributions. This vulnerability affects the GSSAPI patches added by various Linux distributions and does not affect the OpenSSH upstream project itself. The usage of sshpkt_disconnect() on an error, which does not terminate the process, allows an attacker to send an unexpected GSSAPI message type during the GSSAPI key exchange to the server, which will call the underlying function and continue the execution of the program without setting the related connection variables. As the variables are not initialized to NULL the code later accesses those uninitialized variables, accessing random memory, which could lead to undefined behavior. The recommended workaround is to use ssh_packet_disconnect() instead, which does terminate the process. The impact of the vulnerability depends heavily on the compiler flag hardening configuration.

CVE-2026-35469 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.5

Description: spdystream is a Go library for multiplexing streams over SPDY connections. In versions 0.5.0 and below, the SPDY/3 frame parser does not validate attacker-controlled counts and lengths before allocating memory. Three allocation paths are affected: the SETTINGS frame entry count, the header count in parseHeaderValueBlock, and individual header field sizes - all read as 32-bit integers and used directly as allocation sizes with no bounds checking. Because SPDY header blocks are zlib-compressed, a small on-the-wire payload can decompress into large attacker-controlled values. A remote peer that can send SPDY frames to a service using spdystream can exhaust process memory and cause an out-of-memory crash with a single crafted control frame. This issue has been fixed in version 0.5.1.

The actual cleanup of 'tr->progs_hlist' in'bpf_shim_tramp_link_release' is deferred. During this window, anotherprocess can cause a use-after-free via 'bpf_trampoline_link_cgroup_shim'.Based on Martin KaFai Lau's suggestions, I have created a simple patch.To fix this: Add an atomic non-zero check in 'bpf_trampoline_link_cgroup_shim'. Only increment the refcount if it is not already zero.Testing: I verified the fix by adding a delay in 'bpf_shim_tramp_link_release' to make the bug easier to trigger:static void bpf_shim_tramp_link_release(struct bpf_link *link){ /* ... */ if (!shim_link->trampoline) return;+ msleep(100); WARN_ON_ONCE(bpf_trampoline_unlink_prog(&shim_link->link, shim_link->trampoline, NULL)); bpf_trampoline_put(shim_link->trampoline);}Before the patch, running a PoC easily reproduced the crash(almost 100%)with a call trace similar to KaiyanM's report.After the patch, the bug no longer occurs even after millions ofiterations.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: sched: avoid qdisc_reset_all_tx_gt() vs dequeue race for lockless qdiscsWhen shrinking the number of real tx queues,netif_set_real_num_tx_queues() calls qdisc_reset_all_tx_gt() to flushqdiscs for queues which will no longer be used.qdisc_reset_all_tx_gt() currently serializes qdisc_reset() withqdisc_lock(). However, for lockless qdiscs, the dequeue path isserialized by qdisc_run_begin/end() using qdisc->seqlock instead, soqdisc_reset() can run concurrently with __qdisc_run() and free skbswhile they are still being dequeued, leading to UAF.This can easily be reproduced on e.g. virtio-net by imposing heavytraffic while frequently changing the number of queue pairs: iperf3 -ub0 -c $peer -t 0 & while :; do ethtool -L eth0 combined 1 ethtool -L eth0 combined 2 doneWith KASAN enabled, this leads to reports like: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __qdisc_run+0x133f/0x1760 ...

CVE-2026-23413 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.4

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:clsact: Fix use-after-free in init/destroy rollback asymmetryFix a use-after-free in the clsact qdisc upon init/destroy rollback asymmetry.The latter is achieved by first fully initializing a clsact instance, andthen in a second step having a replacement failure for the new clsact qdiscinstance. clsact_init() initializes ingress first and then takes care of theegress part. This can fail midway, for example, via tcf_block_get_ext(). Uponfailure, the kernel will trigger the clsact_destroy() callback.Commit 1cb6f0bae504 ("bpf: Fix too early release of tcx_entry") details theway how the transition is happening. If tcf_block_get_ext on the q->ingress_blockends up failing, we took the tcx_miniq_inc reference count on the ingressside, but not yet on the egress side. clsact_destroy() tests whether the{ingress,egress}_entry was non-NULL. However, even in midway failure on thereplacement, both are in fact non-NULL with a valid egress_entry from theprevious clsact instance.What we really need to test for is whether the qdisc instance-specific ingressor egress side previously got initialized. This adds a small helper for checkingthe miniq initialization called mini_qdisc_pair_inited, and utilizes that uponclsact_destroy() in order to fix the use-after-free scenario. Convert theingress_destroy() side as well so both are consistent to each other.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:bnxt_en: fix OOB access in DBG_BUF_PRODUCER async event handlerThe ASYNC_EVENT_CMPL_EVENT_ID_DBG_BUF_PRODUCER handler inbnxt_async_event_process() uses a firmware-supplied 'type' fielddirectly as an index into bp->bs_trace[] without bounds validation.The 'type' field is a 16-bit value extracted from DMA-mapped completionring memory that the NIC writes directly to host RAM. A malicious orcompromised NIC can supply any value from 0 to 65535, causing anout-of-bounds access into kernel heap memory.The bnxt_bs_trace_check_wrap() call then dereferences bs_trace->magic_byteand writes to bs_trace->last_offset and bs_trace->wrapped, leading tokernel memory corruption or a crash.Fix by adding a bounds check and defining BNXT_TRACE_MAX asDBG_LOG_BUFFER_FLUSH_REQ_TYPE_ERR_QPC_TRACE + 1 to cover all currentlydefined firmware trace types (0x0 through 0xc).

CVE-2025-71152 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.3

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: dsa: properly keep track of conduit referenceProblem description-------------------DSA has a mumbo-jumbo of reference handling of the conduit net deviceand its kobject which, sadly, is just wrong and doesn't make sense.There are two distinct problems.1. The OF path, which uses of_find_net_device_by_node(), never releases the elevated refcount on the conduit's kobject. Nominally, the OF and non-OF paths should result in objects having identical reference counts taken, and it is already suspicious that dsa_dev_to_net_device() has a put_device() call which is missing in dsa_port_parse_of(), but we can actually even verify that an issue exists. With CONFIG_DEBUG_KOBJECT_RELEASE=y, if we run this command "before" and "after" applying this patch:(unbind the conduit driver for net device eno2)echo 0000:00:00.2 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/fsl_enetc/unbindwe see these lines in the output diff which appear only with the patchapplied:kobject: 'eno2' (ffff002009a3a6b8): kobject_release, parent 0000000000000000 (delayed 1000)kobject: '109' (ffff0020099d59a0): kobject_release, parent 0000000000000000 (delayed 1000)2. After we find the conduit interface one way (OF) or another (non-OF), it can get unregistered at any time, and DSA remains with a long-lived, but in this case stale, cpu_dp->conduit pointer. Holding the net device's underlying kobject isn't actually of much help, it just prevents it from being freed (but we never need that kobject directly). What helps us to prevent the net device from being unregistered is the parallel netdev reference mechanism (dev_hold() and dev_put()).Actually we actually use that netdev tracker mechanism implicitly onuser ports since commit 2f1e8ea726e9 ("net: dsa: link interfaces withthe DSA master to get rid of lockdep warnings"), via netdev_upper_dev_link().But time still passes at DSA switch probe time between the initialof_find_net_device_by_node() code and the user port creation time, timeduring which the conduit could unregister itself and DSA wouldn't knowabout it.So we have to run of_find_net_device_by_node() under rtnl_lock() toprevent that from happening, and release the lock only with the netdevtracker having acquired the reference.Do we need to keep the reference until dsa_unregister_switch() /dsa_switch_shutdown()?1: Maybe yes. A switch device will still be registered even if all user ports failed to probe, see commit 86f8b1c01a0a ("net: dsa: Do not make user port errors fatal"), and the cpu_dp->conduit pointers remain valid. I haven't audited all call paths to see whether they will actually use the conduit in lack of any user port, but if they do, it seems safer to not rely on user ports for that reference.2. Definitely yes. We support changing the conduit which a user port is associated to, and we can get into a situation where we've moved all user ports away from a conduit, thus no longer hold any reference to it via the net device tracker. But we shouldn't let it go nonetheless - see the next change in relation to dsa_tree_find_first_conduit() and LAG conduits which disappear. We have to be prepared to return to the physical conduit, so the CPU port must explicitly keep another reference to it. This is also to say: the user ports and their CPU ports may not always keep a reference to the same conduit net device, and both are needed.As for the conduit's kobject for the /sys/class/net/ entry, we don'tcare about it, we can release it as soon as we hold the net deviceobject itself.History and blame attribution-----------------------------The code has been refactored so many times, it is very difficult tofollow and properly attribute a blame, but I'll try to make a shorthistory which I hope to be correct.We have two distinct probing paths:- one for OF, introduced in 2016 i---truncated---

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:uacce: implement mremap in uacce_vm_ops to return -EPERMThe current uacce_vm_ops does not support the mremap operation ofvm_operations_struct. Implement .mremap to return -EPERM to remindusers.The reason we need to explicitly disable mremap is that when thedriver does not implement .mremap, it uses the default mremapmethod. This could lead to a risk scenario:An application might first mmap address p1, then mremap to p2,followed by munmap(p1), and finally munmap(p2). Since the defaultmremap copies the original vma's vm_private_data (i.e., q) to thenew vma, both munmap operations would trigger vma_close, causingq->qfr to be freed twice(qfr will be set to null here, so repeatedrelease is ok).

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:gve: Fix stats report corruption on queue count changeThe driver and the NIC share a region in memory for stats reporting.The NIC calculates its offset into this region based on the total sizeof the stats region and the size of the NIC's stats.When the number of queues is changed, the driver's stats region isresized. If the queue count is increased, the NIC can write pastthe end of the allocated stats region, causing memory corruption.If the queue count is decreased, there is a gap between the driverand NIC stats, leading to incorrect stats reporting.This change fixes the issue by allocating stats region with maximumsize, and the offset calculation for NIC stats is changed to matchwith the calculation of the NIC.

This is incorrect because timer_delete() does not wait forany running timer callback to complete.If a timer callback is executing when lbs_free_adapter() is called,the callback will access freed memory since lbs_cfg_free() frees thecontaining structure immediately after lbs_free_adapter() returns.Both timer callbacks (lbs_cmd_timeout_handler and lbs_tx_lockup_handler)access priv->driver_lock, priv->cur_cmd, priv->dev, and other fields,which would all be use-after-free violations.Use timer_delete_sync() instead to ensure any running timer callbackhas completed before returning.This bug was introduced in commit 8f641d93c38a ("libertas: detect TXlockups and reset hardware") where del_timer() was used instead ofdel_timer_sync() in the cleanup path.

And a potential crashat this point may not realizs that these extents could have been targetof in-flight IO and would need to be resynced just in case.Also, once the request completes, it will give up activity log references itdoes not even hold, which will trigger a BUG_ON(refcnt == 0) in lc_put().Fix:Do not crash the kernel for a condition that is harmless during normaloperation: also catch "e->refcnt == 0", not only "e == NULL"when being noisy about "al_complete_io() called on inactive extent %u\n".And do not try to be smart and "guess" whether something will work, thenbe surprised when it does not.Deal with the fact that it may or may not work.

CVE-2026-23455 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.3

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:netfilter: nf_conntrack_h323: check for zero length in DecodeQ931()In DecodeQ931(), the UserUserIE code path reads a 16-bit length fromthe packet, then decrements it by 1 to skip the protocol discriminatorbyte before passing it to DecodeH323_UserInformation(). If the encodedlength is 0, the decrement wraps to -1, which is then passed as alarge value to the decoder, leading to an out-of-bounds read.Add a check to ensure len is positive after the decrement.

CVE-2025-39716 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.1

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:parisc: Revise __get_user() to probe user read accessBecause of the way read access support is implemented, read accessinterruptions are only triggered at privilege levels 2 and 3. Thekernel executes at privilege level 0, so __get_user() never triggersa read access interruption (code 26). Thus, it is currently possiblefor user code to access a read protected address via a system call.Fix this by probing read access rights at privilege level 3 (PRIV_USER)and setting __gu_err to -EFAULT (-14) if access isn't allowed.Note the cmpiclr instruction does a 32-bit compare because COND macrodoesn't work inside asm.

CVE-2025-39998 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.1

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:scsi: target: target_core_configfs: Add length check to avoid buffer overflowA buffer overflow arises from the usage of snprintf to write into thebuffer "buf" in target_lu_gp_members_show function located in/drivers/target/target_core_configfs.c. This buffer is allocated withsize LU_GROUP_NAME_BUF (256 bytes).snprintf(...) formats multiple strings into buf with the HBA name(hba->hba_group.cg_item), a slash character, a devicename (dev->dev_group.cg_item) and a newline character, the total formatted stringlength may exceed the buffer size of 256 bytes.Since snprintf() returns the total number of bytes that would have beenwritten (the length of %s/%sn ), this value may exceed the buffer length(256 bytes) passed to memcpy(), this will ultimately cause functionmemcpy reporting a buffer overflow error.An additional check of the return value of snprintf() can avoid thisbuffer overflow.

CVE-2026-39979 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.1

Description: jq is a command-line JSON processor. In commits before 2f09060afab23fe9390cce7cb860b10416e1bf5f, the jv_parse_sized() API in libjq accepts a counted buffer with an explicit length parameter, but its error-handling path formats the input buffer using %s in jv_string_fmt(), which reads until a NUL terminator is found rather than respecting the caller-supplied length. This means that when malformed JSON is passed in a non-NUL-terminated buffer, the error construction logic performs an out-of-bounds read past the end of the buffer. The vulnerability is reachable by any libjq consumer calling jv_parse_sized() with untrusted input, and depending on memory layout, can result in memory disclosure or process termination. The issue has been patched in commit 2f09060afab23fe9390cce7cb860b10416e1bf5f.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:scsi: qla2xxx: Fix improper freeing of purex itemIn qla2xxx_process_purls_iocb(), an item is allocated viaqla27xx_copy_multiple_pkt(), which internally callsqla24xx_alloc_purex_item().The qla24xx_alloc_purex_item() function may return a pre-allocated itemfrom a per-adapter pool for small allocations, instead of dynamicallyallocating memory with kzalloc().An error handling path in qla2xxx_process_purls_iocb() incorrectly useskfree() to release the item. If the item was from the pre-allocatedpool, calling kfree() on it is a bug that can lead to memory corruption.Fix this by using the correct deallocation function,qla24xx_free_purex_item(), which properly handles both dynamicallyallocated and pre-allocated items.

A -ENODEV is thenreturned to the caller. When libsas sas_ata_qc_issue() receives this errorvalue, it assumes the task wasn't handled/queued by LLDD and proceeds toclean up and free the task again, resulting in a double free.Since pm8001_queue_command() handles the SAS task in this case, it shouldreturn 0 to the caller indicating that the task has been handled.

CVE-2026-23098 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.9

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:netrom: fix double-free in nr_route_frame()In nr_route_frame(), old_skb is immediately freed without checking ifnr_neigh->ax25 pointer is NULL. Therefore, if nr_neigh->ax25 is NULL,the caller function will free old_skb again, causing a double-free bug.Therefore, to prevent this, we need to modify it to check whethernr_neigh->ax25 is NULL before freeing old_skb.

CVE-2026-3904 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.9

Description: Calling NSS-backed functions that support caching via nscd may call the nscd client side code and in the GNU C Library version 2.36 under high load on x86_64 systems, the client may call memcmp on inputs that are concurrently modified by other processes or threads and crash.The nscd client in the GNU C Library uses the memcmp function with inputs that may be concurrently modified by another thread, potentially resulting in spurious cache misses, which in itself is not a security issue. However in the GNU C Library version 2.36 an optimized implementation of memcmp was introduced for x86_64 which could crash when invoked with such undefined behaviour, turning this into a potential crash of the nscd client and the application that uses it. This implementation was backported to the 2.35 branch, making the nscd client in that branch vulnerable as well. Subsequently, the fix for this issue was backported to all vulnerable branches in the GNU C Library repository.It is advised that distributions that may have cherry-picked the memcpy SSE2 optimization in their copy of the GNU C Library, also apply the fix to avoid the potential crash in the nscd client.

The generic netlink handler(handle_generic_event()/handle_response()) fills entry->response underipc_msg_table_lock, but ipc_msg_send_request() used to validate and freeentry->response without holding the same lock.Under high concurrency this allows a race where handle_response() iscopying data into entry->response while ipc_msg_send_request() has justfreed it, leading to a slab-use-after-free reported by KASAN inhandle_generic_event(): BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in handle_generic_event+0x3c4/0x5f0 [ksmbd] Write of size 12 at addr ffff888198ee6e20 by task pool/109349 ...

CVE-2025-68736 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.7

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:landlock: Fix handling of disconnected directoriesDisconnected files or directories can appear when they are visible andopened from a bind mount, but have been renamed or moved from the sourceof the bind mount in a way that makes them inaccessible from the mountpoint (i.e. out of scope).Previously, access rights tied to files or directories opened through adisconnected directory were collected by walking the related hierarchydown to the root of the filesystem, without taking into account themount point because it couldn't be found. This could lead toinconsistent access results, potential access right widening, andhard-to-debug renames, especially since such paths cannot be printed.For a sandboxed task to create a disconnected directory, it needs tohave write access (i.e. FS_MAKE_REG, FS_REMOVE_FILE, and FS_REFER) tothe underlying source of the bind mount, and read access to the relatedmount point. Because a sandboxed task cannot acquire more accessrights than those defined by its Landlock domain, this could lead toinconsistent access rights due to missing permissions that should beinherited from the mount point hierarchy, while inheriting permissionsfrom the filesystem hierarchy hidden by this mount point instead.Landlock now handles files and directories opened from disconnecteddirectories by taking into account the filesystem hierarchy when themount point is not found in the hierarchy walk, and also always takinginto account the mount point from which these disconnected directorieswere opened. This ensures that a rename is not allowed if it wouldwiden access rights [1].The rationale is that, even if disconnected hierarchies might not bevisible or accessible to a sandboxed task, relying on the collectedaccess rights from them improves the guarantee that access rights willnot be widened during a rename because of the access right comparisonbetween the source and the destination (see LANDLOCK_ACCESS_FS_REFER).It may look like this would grant more access on disconnected files anddirectories, but the security policies are always enforced for all theevaluated hierarchies. This new behavior should be less surprising tousers and safer from an access control perspective.Remove a wrong WARN_ON_ONCE() canary in collect_domain_accesses() andfix the related comment.Because opened files have their access rights stored in the related filesecurity properties, there is no impact for disconnected or unlinkedfiles.

As for now, the maximal read size for kvec iter isonly limited by fc->max_read. For virtio-fs, max_read is UINT_MAX, sofuse_direct_io() doesn't split the 10MB buffer. It saves the address andthe size of the 10MB-sized buffer in out_args[0] of a fuse request andpasses the fuse request to virtio_fs_wake_pending_and_unlock().4) virtio_fs_wake_pending_and_unlock() uses virtio_fs_enqueue_req() toqueue the request. Because virtiofs need DMA-able address, sovirtio_fs_enqueue_req() uses kmalloc() to allocate a bounce buffer forall fuse args, copies these args into the bounce buffer and passed thephysical address of the bounce buffer to virtiofsd. The total length ofthese fuse args for the passed fuse request is about 10MB, socopy_args_to_argbuf() invokes kmalloc() with a 10MB size parameter andit triggers the warning in __alloc_pages(): if (WARN_ON_ONCE_GFP(order > MAX_PAGE_ORDER, gfp)) return NULL;5) virtio_fs_enqueue_req() will retry the memory allocation in akworker, but it won't help, because kmalloc() will always return NULLdue to the abnormal size and finit_module() will hang forever.A feasible solution is to limit the value of max_read for virtio-fs, sothe length passed to kmalloc() will be limited. However it will affectthe maximal read size for normal read. And for virtio-fs write initiatedfrom kernel, it has the similar problem but now there is no way to limitfc->max_write in kernel.So instead of limiting both the values of max_read and max_write inkernel, introducing use_pages_for_kvec_io in fuse_conn and setting it astrue in virtiofs. When use_pages_for_kvec_io is enabled, fuse will usepages instead of pointer to pass the KVEC_IO data.After switching to pages for KVEC_IO data, these pages will be used forDMA through virtio-fs. If these pages are backed by vmalloc(),{flush|invalidate}_kernel_vmap_range() are necessary to flush orinvalidate the cache before the DMA operation. So add two new fields infuse_args_pages to record the base address of vmalloc area and thecondition indicating whether invalidation is needed. Perform the flushin fuse_get_user_pages() for write operations and the invalidation infuse_release_user_pages() for read operations.It may seem necessary to introduce another fie---truncated---

CVE-2025-39748 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:bpf: Forget ranges when refining tnum after JSETSyzbot reported a kernel warning due to a range invariant violation onthe following BPF program. 0: call bpf_get_netns_cookie 1: if r0 == 0 goto 2: if r0 & Oxffffffff goto The issue is on the path where we fall through both jumps.That path is unreachable at runtime: after insn 1, we know r0 != 0, butwith the sign extension on the jset, we would only fallthrough insn 2if r0 == 0. Unfortunately, is_branch_taken() isn't currently able tofigure this out, so the verifier walks all branches. The verifier thenrefines the register bounds using the second condition and we endup with inconsistent bounds on this unreachable path: 1: if r0 == 0 goto r0: u64=[0x1, 0xffffffffffffffff] var_off=(0, 0xffffffffffffffff) 2: if r0 & 0xffffffff goto r0 before reg_bounds_sync: u64=[0x1, 0xffffffffffffffff] var_off=(0, 0) r0 after reg_bounds_sync: u64=[0x1, 0] var_off=(0, 0)Improving the range refinement for JSET to cover all cases is tricky. Wealso don't expect many users to rely on JSET given LLVM doesn't generatethose instructions. So instead of improving the range refinement forJSETs, Eduard suggested we forget the ranges whenever we're narrowingtnums after a JSET. This patch implements that approach.

CVE-2025-39776 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:mm/debug_vm_pgtable: clear page table entries at destroy_args()The mm/debug_vm_pagetable test allocates manually page table entries forthe tests it runs, using also its manually allocated mm_struct. That initself is ok, but when it exits, at destroy_args() it fails to clear thoseentries with the *_clear functions.The problem is that leaves stale entries. If another process allocates anmm_struct with a pgd at the same address, it may end up running into thestale entry.

If tsk != current and tsk is not a leader, this process can exit/execand task_lock(tsk->group_leader) may use the already freed task_struct.Another problem is that sys_prlimit64() can race with mt-exec which changes->group_leader. In this case do_prlimit() may take the wrong lock, or (worse)->group_leader may change between task_lock() and task_unlock().Change sys_prlimit64() to take tasklist_lock when necessary.

CVE-2025-40341 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:futex: Don't leak robust_list pointer on exec racesys_get_robust_list() and compat_get_robust_list() use ptrace_may_access()to check if the calling task is allowed to access another task'srobust_list pointer. This check is racy against a concurrent exec() in thetarget process.During exec(), a task may transition from a non-privileged binary to aprivileged one (e.g., setuid binary) and its credentials/memory mappingsmay change. If get_robust_list() performs ptrace_may_access() beforethis transition, it may erroneously allow access to sensitive informationafter the target becomes privileged.A racy access allows an attacker to exploit a window during whichptrace_may_access() passes before a target process transitions to aprivileged state via exec().For example, consider a non-privileged task T that is about to execute asetuid-root binary. An attacker task A calls get_robust_list(T) while Tis still unprivileged. Since ptrace_may_access() checks permissionsbased on current credentials, it succeeds. However, if T begins execimmediately afterwards, it becomes privileged and may change its memorymappings. Because get_robust_list() proceeds to access T->robust_listwithout synchronizing with exec() it may read user-space pointers from anow-privileged process.This violates the intended post-exec access restrictions and couldexpose sensitive memory addresses or be used as a primitive in a largerexploit chain. Consequently, the race can lead to unauthorizeddisclosure of information across privilege boundaries and poses apotential security risk.Take a read lock on signal->exec_update_lock prior to invokingptrace_may_access() and accessing the robust_list/compat_robust_list.This ensures that the target task's exec state remains stable during thecheck, allowing for consistent and synchronized validation ofcredentials.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:s390: Disable ARCH_WANT_OPTIMIZE_HUGETLB_VMEMMAPAs reported by Luiz Capitulino enabling HVO on s390 leads to reproduciblecrashes. The problem is that kernel page tables are modified withoutflushing corresponding TLB entries.Even if it looks like the empty flush_tlb_all() implementation on s390 isthe problem, it is actually a different problem: on s390 it is not allowedto replace an active/valid page table entry with another valid page tableentry without the detour over an invalid entry. A direct replacement maylead to random crashes and/or data corruption.In order to invalidate an entry special instructions have to be used(e.g. ipte or idte). Alternatively there are also special instructionsavailable which allow to replace a valid entry with a different validentry (e.g. crdte or cspg).Given that the HVO code currently does not provide the hooks to allow foran implementation which is compliant with the s390 architecturerequirements, disable ARCH_WANT_OPTIMIZE_HUGETLB_VMEMMAP again, which isbasically a revert of the original patch which enabled it.

CVE-2025-68211 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ksm: use range-walk function to jump over holes in scan_get_next_rmap_itemCurrently, scan_get_next_rmap_item() walks every page address in a VMA tolocate mergeable pages. This becomes highly inefficient when scanninglarge virtual memory areas that contain mostly unmapped regions, causingksmd to use large amount of cpu without deduplicating much pages.This patch replaces the per-address lookup with a range walk usingwalk_page_range(). The range walker allows KSM to skip over entireunmapped holes in a VMA, avoiding unnecessary lookups. This problem waspreviously discussed in [1].Consider the following test program which creates a 32 TiB mapping in thevirtual address space but only populates a single page:#include #include #include /* 32 TiB */const size_t size = 32ul * 1024 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024;int main() { char *area = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_NORESERVE | MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANON, -1, 0); if (area == MAP_FAILED) { perror("mmap() failed\n"); return -1; } /* Populate a single page such that we get an anon_vma. */ *area = 0; /* Enable KSM. */ madvise(area, size, MADV_MERGEABLE); pause(); return 0;}$ ./ksm-sparse &$ echo 1 > /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run Without this patch ksmd uses 100% of the cpu for a long time (more then 1hour in my test machine) scanning all the 32 TiB virtual address spacethat contain only one mapped page. This makes ksmd essentially deadlockednot able to deduplicate anything of value. With this patch ksmd walksonly the one mapped page and skips the rest of the 32 TiB virtual addressspace, making the scan fast using little cpu.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:timers: Fix NULL function pointer race in timer_shutdown_sync()There is a race condition between timer_shutdown_sync() and timerexpiration that can lead to hitting a WARN_ON in expire_timers().The issue occurs when timer_shutdown_sync() clears the timer functionto NULL while the timer is still running on another CPU. The racescenario looks like this:CPU0 CPU1 lock_timer_base() expire_timers() base->running_timer = timer; unlock_timer_base() [call_timer_fn enter] mod_timer() ...timer_shutdown_sync()lock_timer_base()// For now, will not detach the timer but only clear its function to NULLif (base->running_timer != timer) ret = detach_if_pending(timer, base, true);if (shutdown) timer->function = NULL;unlock_timer_base() [call_timer_fn exit] lock_timer_base() base->running_timer = NULL; unlock_timer_base() ... // Now timer is pending while its function set to NULL. // next timer trigger expire_timers() WARN_ON_ONCE(!fn) // hit ...lock_timer_base()// Now timer will detachif (base->running_timer != timer) ret = detach_if_pending(timer, base, true);if (shutdown) timer->function = NULL;unlock_timer_base()The problem is that timer_shutdown_sync() clears the timer functionregardless of whether the timer is currently running. This can leave apending timer with a NULL function pointer, which triggers theWARN_ON_ONCE(!fn) check in expire_timers().Fix this by only clearing the timer function when actually detaching thetimer. If the timer is running, leave the function pointer intact, which issafe because the timer will be properly detached when it finishes running.

CVE-2025-68219 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:cifs: fix memory leak in smb3_fs_context_parse_param error pathAdd proper cleanup of ctx->source and fc->source to thecifs_parse_mount_err error handler. This ensures that memory allocatedfor the source strings is correctly freed on all error paths, matchingthe cleanup already performed in the success path bysmb3_cleanup_fs_context_contents().Pointers are also set to NULL after freeing to prevent potentialdouble-free issues.This change fixes a memory leak originally detected by syzbot. Theleak occurred when processing Opt_source mount options if an errorhappened after ctx->source and fc->source were successfullyallocated but before the function completed.The specific leak sequence was:1. ctx->source = smb3_fs_context_fullpath(ctx, '/') allocates memory2. fc->source = kstrdup(ctx->source, GFP_KERNEL) allocates more memory3. A subsequent error jumps to cifs_parse_mount_err4. The old error handler freed passwords but not the source strings,causing the memory to leak.This issue was not addressed by commit e8c73eb7db0a ("cifs: client:fix memory leak in smb3_fs_context_parse_param"), which only fixedleaks from repeated fsconfig() calls but not this error path.Patch updated with minor change suggested by kernel test robot

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:usb: gadget: udc: fix use-after-free in usb_gadget_state_workA race condition during gadget teardown can lead to a use-after-freein usb_gadget_state_work(), as reported by KASAN: BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in sysfs_notify+0x2c/0xd0 Workqueue: events usb_gadget_state_workThe fundamental race occurs because a concurrent event (e.g., aninterrupt) can call usb_gadget_set_state() and schedule gadget->workat any time during the cleanup process in usb_del_gadget().Commit 399a45e5237c ("usb: gadget: core: flush gadget workqueue afterdevice removal") attempted to fix this by moving flush_work() to afterdevice_del(). However, this does not fully solve the race, as a newwork item can still be scheduled *after* flush_work() completes butbefore the gadget's memory is freed, leading to the same use-after-free.This patch fixes the race condition robustly by introducing a 'teardown'flag and a 'state_lock' spinlock to the usb_gadget struct. The flag isset during cleanup in usb_del_gadget() *before* calling flush_work() toprevent any new work from being scheduled once cleanup has commenced.The scheduling site, usb_gadget_set_state(), now checks this flag underthe lock before queueing the work, thus safely closing the race window.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:btrfs: fix racy bitfield write in btrfs_clear_space_info_full()From the memory-barriers.txt document regarding memory barrier orderingguarantees: (*) These guarantees do not apply to bitfields, because compilers often generate code to modify these using non-atomic read-modify-write sequences. Do not attempt to use bitfields to synchronize parallel algorithms. (*) Even in cases where bitfields are protected by locks, all fields in a given bitfield must be protected by one lock. If two fields in a given bitfield are protected by different locks, the compiler's non-atomic read-modify-write sequences can cause an update to one field to corrupt the value of an adjacent field.btrfs_space_info has a bitfield sharing an underlying word consisting ofthe fields full, chunk_alloc, and flush:struct btrfs_space_info { struct btrfs_fs_info * fs_info; /* 0 8 */ struct btrfs_space_info * parent; /* 8 8 */ ... int clamp; /* 172 4 */ unsigned int full:1; /* 176: 0 4 */ unsigned int chunk_alloc:1; /* 176: 1 4 */ unsigned int flush:1; /* 176: 2 4 */ ...Therefore, to be safe from parallel read-modify-writes losing a write toone of the bitfield members protected by a lock, all writes to all thebitfields must use the lock. They almost universally do, except forbtrfs_clear_space_info_full() which iterates over the space_infos andwrites out found->full = 0 without a lock.Imagine that we have one thread completing a transaction in which wefinished deleting a block_group and are thus callingbtrfs_clear_space_info_full() while simultaneously the data reclaimticket infrastructure is running do_async_reclaim_data_space(): T1 T2btrfs_commit_transaction btrfs_clear_space_info_full data_sinfo->full = 0 READ: full:0, chunk_alloc:0, flush:1 do_async_reclaim_data_space(data_sinfo) spin_lock(&space_info->lock); if(list_empty(tickets)) space_info->flush = 0; READ: full: 0, chunk_alloc:0, flush:1 MOD/WRITE: full: 0, chunk_alloc:0, flush:0 spin_unlock(&space_info->lock); return; MOD/WRITE: full:0, chunk_alloc:0, flush:1and now data_sinfo->flush is 1 but the reclaim worker has exited. Thisbreaks the invariant that flush is 0 iff there is no work queued orrunning. Once this invariant is violated, future allocations that gointo __reserve_bytes() will add tickets to space_info->tickets but willsee space_info->flush is set to 1 and not queue the work. After this,they will block forever on the resulting ticket, as it is now impossibleto kick the worker again.I also confirmed by looking at the assembly of the affected kernel thatit is doing RMW operations. For example, to set the flush (3rd) bit to 0,the assembly is: andb $0xfb,0x60(%rbx)and similarly for setting the full (1st) bit to 0: andb $0xfe,-0x20(%rax)So I think this is really a bug on practical systems. I have observeda number of systems in this exact state, but am currently unable toreproduce it.Rather than leaving this footgun lying around for the future, takeadvantage of the fact that there is room in the struct anyway, and thatit is already quite large and simply change the three bitfield members tobools. This avoids writes to space_info->full having any effect on---truncated---

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:sched/deadline: only set free_cpus for online runqueuesCommit 16b269436b72 ("sched/deadline: Modify cpudl::free_cpusto reflect rd->online") introduced the cpudl_set/clear_freecpufunctions to allow the cpu_dl::free_cpus mask to be manipulatedby the deadline scheduler class rq_on/offline callbacks so themask would also reflect this state.Commit 9659e1eeee28 ("sched/deadline: Remove cpu_active_maskfrom cpudl_find()") removed the check of the cpu_active_mask tosave some processing on the premise that the cpudl::free_cpusmask already reflected the runqueue online state.Unfortunately, there are cases where it is possible for thecpudl_clear function to set the free_cpus bit for a CPU when thedeadline runqueue is offline. When this occurs while a CPU isconnected to the default root domain the flag may retain the badstate after the CPU has been unplugged. Later, a different CPUthat is transitioning through the default root domain may push adeadline task to the powered down CPU when cpudl_find sees itsfree_cpus bit is set. If this happens the task will not have theopportunity to run.One example is outlined here:https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20250110233010.2339521-1-opendmb@gmail.comAnother occurs when the last deadline task is migrated from aCPU that has an offlined runqueue. The dequeue_task member ofthe deadline scheduler class will eventually call cpudl_clearand set the free_cpus bit for the CPU.This commit modifies the cpudl_clear function to be aware of theonline state of the deadline runqueue so that the free_cpus maskcan be updated appropriately.It is no longer necessary to manage the mask outside of thecpudl_set/clear functions so the cpudl_set/clear_freecpufunctions are removed. In addition, since the free_cpus mask isnow only updated under the cpudl lock the code was changed touse the non-atomic __cpumask functions.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:Input: alps - fix use-after-free bugs caused by dev3_register_workThe dev3_register_work delayed work item is initialized withinalps_reconnect() and scheduled upon receipt of the first barePS/2 packet from an external PS/2 device connected to the ALPStouchpad. During device detachment, the original implementationcalls flush_workqueue() in psmouse_disconnect() to ensurecompletion of dev3_register_work. However, the flush_workqueue()in psmouse_disconnect() only blocks and waits for work items thatwere already queued to the workqueue prior to its invocation. Anywork items submitted after flush_workqueue() is called are notincluded in the set of tasks that the flush operation awaits.This means that after flush_workqueue() has finished executing,the dev3_register_work could still be scheduled. Although thepsmouse state is set to PSMOUSE_CMD_MODE in psmouse_disconnect(),the scheduling of dev3_register_work remains unaffected.The race condition can occur as follows:CPU 0 (cleanup path) | CPU 1 (delayed work)psmouse_disconnect() | psmouse_set_state() | flush_workqueue() | alps_report_bare_ps2_packet() alps_disconnect() | psmouse_queue_work() kfree(priv); // FREE | alps_register_bare_ps2_mouse() | priv = container_of(work...); // USE | priv->dev3 // USEAdd disable_delayed_work_sync() in alps_disconnect() to ensurethat dev3_register_work is properly canceled and prevented fromexecuting after the alps_data structure has been deallocated.This bug is identified by static analysis.

CVE-2025-71127 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:wifi: mac80211: Discard Beacon frames to non-broadcast addressBeacon frames are required to be sent to the broadcast address, see IEEEStd 802.11-2020, 11.1.3.1 ("The Address 1 field of the Beacon .. frameshall be set to the broadcast address"). A unicast Beacon frame might beused as a targeted attack to get one of the associated STAs to dosomething (e.g., using CSA to move it to another channel). As such, itis better have strict filtering for this on the received side anddiscard all Beacon frames that are sent to an unexpected address.This is even more important for cases where beacon protection is used.The current implementation in mac80211 is correctly discarding unicastBeacon frames if the Protected Frame bit in the Frame Control field isset to 0. However, if that bit is set to 1, the logic used for checkingfor configured BIGTK(s) does not actually work. If the driver does nothave logic for dropping unicast Beacon frames with Protected Frame bit1, these frames would be accepted in mac80211 processing as valid Beaconframes even though they are not protected. This would allow beaconprotection to be bypassed. While the logic for checking beaconprotection could be extended to cover this corner case, a more genericcheck for discard all Beacon frames based on A1=unicast address coversthis without needing additional changes.Address all these issues by dropping received Beacon frames if they aresent to a non-broadcast address.

CVE-2025-71183 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:btrfs: always detect conflicting inodes when logging inode refsAfter rename exchanging (either with the rename exchange operation orregular renames in multiple non-atomic steps) two inodes and at leastone of them is a directory, we can end up with a log tree that containsonly of the inodes and after a power failure that can result in an attemptto delete the other inode when it should not because it was not deletedbefore the power failure. In some case that delete attempt fails whenthe target inode is a directory that contains a subvolume inside it, sincethe log replay code is not prepared to deal with directory entries thatpoint to root items (only inode items).1) We have directories "dir1" (inode A) and "dir2" (inode B) under the same parent directory;2) We have a file (inode C) under directory "dir1" (inode A);3) We have a subvolume inside directory "dir2" (inode B);4) All these inodes were persisted in a past transaction and we are currently at transaction N;5) We rename the file (inode C), so at btrfs_log_new_name() we update inode C's last_unlink_trans to N;6) We get a rename exchange for "dir1" (inode A) and "dir2" (inode B), so after the exchange "dir1" is inode B and "dir2" is inode A. During the rename exchange we call btrfs_log_new_name() for inodes A and B, but because they are directories, we don't update their last_unlink_trans to N;7) An fsync against the file (inode C) is done, and because its inode has a last_unlink_trans with a value of N we log its parent directory (inode A) (through btrfs_log_all_parents(), called from btrfs_log_inode_parent()).8) So we end up with inode B not logged, which now has the old name of inode A. At copy_inode_items_to_log(), when logging inode A, we did not check if we had any conflicting inode to log because inode A has a generation lower than the current transaction (created in a past transaction);9) After a power failure, when replaying the log tree, since we find that inode A has a new name that conflicts with the name of inode B in the fs tree, we attempt to delete inode B... this is wrong since that directory was never deleted before the power failure, and because there is a subvolume inside that directory, attempting to delete it will fail since replay_dir_deletes() and btrfs_unlink_inode() are not prepared to deal with dir items that point to roots instead of inodes. When that happens the mount fails and we get a stack trace like the following: [87.2314] BTRFS info (device dm-0): start tree-log replay [87.2318] BTRFS critical (device dm-0): failed to delete reference to subvol, root 5 inode 256 parent 259 [87.2332] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [87.2338] BTRFS: Transaction aborted (error -2) [87.2346] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 638968 at fs/btrfs/inode.c:4345 __btrfs_unlink_inode+0x416/0x440 [btrfs] [87.2368] Modules linked in: btrfs loop dm_thin_pool (...)

CVE-2025-71184 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:btrfs: fix NULL dereference on root when tracing inode evictionWhen evicting an inode the first thing we do is to setup tracing for it,which implies fetching the root's id. But in btrfs_evict_inode() theroot might be NULL, as implied in the next check that we do inbtrfs_evict_inode().Hence, we either should set the ->root_objectid to 0 in case the root isNULL, or we move tracing setup after checking that the root is notNULL. Setting the rootid to 0 at least gives us the possibility to tracethis call even in the case when the root is NULL, so that's the solutiontaken here.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:nvme-tcp: fix NULL pointer dereferences in nvmet_tcp_build_pdu_iovecCommit efa56305908b ("nvmet-tcp: Fix a kernel panic when host sends an invalid H2C PDU length")added ttag bounds checking and data_offsetvalidation in nvmet_tcp_handle_h2c_data_pdu(), but it did not validatewhether the command's data structures (cmd->req.sg and cmd->iov) havebeen properly initialized before processing H2C_DATA PDUs.The nvmet_tcp_build_pdu_iovec() function dereferences these pointerswithout NULL checks. This can be triggered by sending H2C_DATA PDUimmediately after the ICREQ/ICRESP handshake, beforesending a CONNECT command or NVMe write command.Attack vectors that trigger NULL pointer dereferences:1. H2C_DATA PDU sent before CONNECT -> both pointers NULL2. H2C_DATA PDU for READ command -> cmd->req.sg allocated, cmd->iov NULL3. H2C_DATA PDU for uninitialized command slot -> both pointers NULLThe fix validates both cmd->req.sg and cmd->iov before callingnvmet_tcp_build_pdu_iovec(). Both checks are required because:- Uninitialized commands: both NULL- READ commands: cmd->req.sg allocated, cmd->iov NULL- WRITE commands: both allocated

CVE-2026-23047 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:libceph: make calc_target() set t->paused, not just clear itCurrently calc_target() clears t->paused if the request shouldn't bepaused anymore, but doesn't ever set t->paused even though it's able todetermine when the request should be paused. Setting t->paused is leftto __submit_request() which is fine for regular requests but doesn'twork for linger requests -- since __submit_request() doesn't operateon linger requests, there is nowhere for lreq->t.paused to be set.One consequence of this is that watches don't get reestablished onpaused -> unpaused transitions in cases where requests have been pausedlong enough for the (paused) unwatch request to time out and for thesubsequent (re)watch request to enter the paused state. On top of thewatch not getting reestablished, rbd_reregister_watch() gets stuck withrbd_dev->watch_mutex held: rbd_register_watch __rbd_register_watch ceph_osdc_watch linger_reg_commit_waitIt's waiting for lreq->reg_commit_wait to be completed, but for that tohappen the respective request needs to end up on need_resend_linger listand be kicked when requests are unpaused. There is no chance for thatif the request in question is never marked paused in the first place.The fact that rbd_dev->watch_mutex remains taken out forever thenprevents the image from getting unmapped -- "rbd unmap" would inevitablyhang in D state on an attempt to grab the mutex.

When the devicereports a single receive queue, rndis_filter_device_add() does notallocate an indirection table, accepting RSS hash key updates in thisstate leads to a hang.Fix this by gating netvsc_set_rxfh() on ndc->rx_table_sz and return-EOPNOTSUPP when the table is absent.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:uacce: ensure safe queue release with state managementDirectly calling `put_queue` carries risks since it cannotguarantee that resources of `uacce_queue` have been fully releasedbeforehand. So adding a `stop_queue` operation for theUACCE_CMD_PUT_Q command and leaving the `put_queue` operation tothe final resource release ensures safety.Queue states are defined as follows:- UACCE_Q_ZOMBIE: Initial state- UACCE_Q_INIT: After opening `uacce`- UACCE_Q_STARTED: After `start` is issued via `ioctl`When executing `poweroff -f` in virt while accelerator are stillworking, `uacce_fops_release` and `uacce_remove` may executeconcurrently. This can cause `uacce_put_queue` within`uacce_fops_release` to access a NULL `ops` pointer. Therefore, addstate checks to prevent accessing freed pointers.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:regmap: Fix race condition in hwspinlock irqsave routinePreviously, the address of the shared member '&map->spinlock_flags' waspassed directly to 'hwspin_lock_timeout_irqsave'. This creates a racecondition where multiple contexts contending for the lock could overwritethe shared flags variable, potentially corrupting the state for thecurrent lock owner.Fix this by using a local stack variable 'flags' to store the IRQ statetemporarily.

CVE-2026-23073 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:wifi: rsi: Fix memory corruption due to not set vif driver data sizeThe struct ieee80211_vif contains trailing space for vif driver data,when struct ieee80211_vif is allocated, the total memory size that isallocated is sizeof(struct ieee80211_vif) + size of vif driver data.The size of vif driver data is set by each WiFi driver as needed.The RSI911x driver does not set vif driver data size, no trailing spacefor vif driver data is therefore allocated past struct ieee80211_vif .The RSI911x driver does however use the vif driver data to store itsvif driver data structure "struct vif_priv". An access to vif->drv_privleads to access out of struct ieee80211_vif bounds and corruption ofsome memory.In case of the failure observed locally, rsi_mac80211_add_interface()would write struct vif_priv *vif_info = (struct vif_priv *)vif->drv_priv;vif_info->vap_id = vap_idx. This write corrupts struct fq_tin memberstruct list_head new_flows . The flow = list_first_entry(head, structfq_flow, flowchain); in fq_tin_reset() then reports non-NULL bogusaddress, which when accessed causes a crash.The trigger is very simple, boot the machine with init=/bin/sh , mountdevtmpfs, sysfs, procfs, and then do "ip link set wlan0 up", "sleep 1","ip link set wlan0 down" and the crash occurs.Fix this by setting the correct size of vif driver data, which is thesize of "struct vif_priv", so that memory is allocated and the drivercan store its driver data in it, instead of corrupting memory aroundit.

CVE-2026-23085 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:irqchip/gic-v3-its: Avoid truncating memory addressesOn 32-bit machines with CONFIG_ARM_LPAE, it is possible for lowmemallocations to be backed by addresses physical memory above the 32-bitaddress limit, as found while experimenting with larger VMSPLITconfigurations.This caused the qemu virt model to crash in the GICv3 driver, whichallocates the 'itt' object using GFP_KERNEL. Since all memory belowthe 4GB physical address limit is in ZONE_DMA in this configuration,kmalloc() defaults to higher addresses for ZONE_NORMAL, and theITS driver stores the physical address in a 32-bit 'unsigned long'variable.Change the itt_addr variable to the correct phys_addr_t type instead,along with all other variables in this driver that hold a physicaladdress.The gicv5 driver correctly uses u64 variables, while all other irqchipdrivers don't call virt_to_phys or similar interfaces. It's expected thatother device drivers have similar issues, but fixing this one issufficient for booting a virtio based guest.

CVE-2026-23102 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:arm64/fpsimd: signal: Fix restoration of SVE contextWhen SME is supported, Restoring SVE signal context can go wrong in afew ways, including placing the task into an invalid state where thekernel may read from out-of-bounds memory (and may potentially take afatal fault) and/or may kill the task with a SIGKILL.(1) Restoring a context with SVE_SIG_FLAG_SM set can place the task into an invalid state where SVCR.SM is set (and sve_state is non-NULL) but TIF_SME is clear, consequently resuting in out-of-bounds memory reads and/or killing the task with SIGKILL. This can only occur in unusual (but legitimate) cases where the SVE signal context has either been modified by userspace or was saved in the context of another task (e.g. as with CRIU), as otherwise the presence of an SVE signal context with SVE_SIG_FLAG_SM implies that TIF_SME is already set. While in this state, task_fpsimd_load() will NOT configure SMCR_ELx (leaving some arbitrary value configured in hardware) before restoring SVCR and attempting to restore the streaming mode SVE registers from memory via sve_load_state(). As the value of SMCR_ELx.LEN may be larger than the task's streaming SVE vector length, this may read memory outside of the task's allocated sve_state, reading unrelated data and/or triggering a fault. While this can result in secrets being loaded into streaming SVE registers, these values are never exposed. As TIF_SME is clear, fpsimd_bind_task_to_cpu() will configure CPACR_ELx.SMEN to trap EL0 accesses to streaming mode SVE registers, so these cannot be accessed directly at EL0. As fpsimd_save_user_state() verifies the live vector length before saving (S)SVE state to memory, no secret values can be saved back to memory (and hence cannot be observed via ptrace, signals, etc). When the live vector length doesn't match the expected vector length for the task, fpsimd_save_user_state() will send a fatal SIGKILL signal to the task. Hence the task may be killed after executing userspace for some period of time.(2) Restoring a context with SVE_SIG_FLAG_SM clear does not clear the task's SVCR.SM. If SVCR.SM was set prior to restoring the context, then the task will be left in streaming mode unexpectedly, and some register state will be combined inconsistently, though the task will be left in legitimate state from the kernel's PoV. This can only occur in unusual (but legitimate) cases where ptrace has been used to set SVCR.SM after entry to the sigreturn syscall, as syscall entry clears SVCR.SM. In these cases, the the provided SVE register data will be loaded into the task's sve_state using the non-streaming SVE vector length and the FPSIMD registers will be merged into this using the streaming SVE vector length.Fix (1) by setting TIF_SME when setting SVCR.SM. This also requiresensuring that the task's sme_state has been allocated, but as this couldcontain live ZA state, it should not be zeroed. Fix (2) by clearingSVCR.SM when restoring a SVE signal context with SVE_SIG_FLAG_SM clear.For consistency, I've pulled the manipulation of SVCR, TIF_SVE, TIF_SME,and fp_type earlier, immediately after the allocation ofsve_state/sme_state, before the restore of the actual register state.This makes it easier to ensure that these are always modifiedconsistently, even if a fault is taken while reading the register datafrom the signal context. I do not expect any software to depend on theexact state restored when a fault is taken while reading the context.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ipvlan: Make the addrs_lock be per portMake the addrs_lock be per port, not per ipvlan dev.Initial code seems to be written in the assumption,that any address change must occur under RTNL.But it is not so for the case of IPv6. So1) Introduce per-port addrs_lock.2) It was needed to fix places where it was forgottento take lock (ipvlan_open/ipvlan_close)This appears to be a very minor problem though.Since it's highly unlikely that ipvlan_add_addr() willbe called on 2 CPU simultaneously. But nevertheless,this could cause:1) False-negative of ipvlan_addr_busy(): one interfaceiterated through all port->ipvlans + ipvlan->addrsunder some ipvlan spinlock, and another added IPunder its own lock. Though this is only possiblefor IPv6, since looks like only ipvlan_addr6_event() can becalled without rtnl_lock.2) Race since ipvlan_ht_addr_add(port) is called underdifferent ipvlan->addrs_lock locksThis should not affect performance, since add/remove IPis a rare situation and spinlock is not taken on fastpaths.

CVE-2026-23113 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:io_uring/io-wq: check IO_WQ_BIT_EXIT inside work run loopCurrently this is checked before running the pending work. Normally thisis quite fine, as work items either end up blocking (which will create anew worker for other items), or they complete fairly quickly. But syzbotreports an issue where io-wq takes seemingly forever to exit, and with abit of debugging, this turns out to be because it queues a bunch of big(2GB - 4096b) reads with a /dev/msr* file. Since this file type doesn'tsupport ->read_iter(), loop_rw_iter() ends up handling them. Each readreturns 16MB of data read, which takes 20 (!!) seconds. With a bunch ofthese pending, processing the whole chain can take a long time. Easilylonger than the syzbot uninterruptible sleep timeout of 140 seconds.This then triggers a complaint off the io-wq exit path:INFO: task syz.4.135:6326 blocked for more than 143 seconds.

However, we can speed up the exit by checking theIO_WQ_BIT_EXIT inside the io_worker_handle_work() loop, as syzbot willexit the ring after queueing up all of these reads. Then once the firstitem is processed, io-wq will simply cancel the rest. That should avoidsyzbot running into this complaint again.

In this case, thecommand sequence is currently:- SCTP_CMD_PEER_INIT- SCTP_CMD_TIMER_STOP (T1_INIT)- SCTP_CMD_TIMER_START (T1_COOKIE)- SCTP_CMD_NEW_STATE (COOKIE_ECHOED)- SCTP_CMD_ASSOC_SHKEY- SCTP_CMD_GEN_COOKIE_ECHOIf SCTP_CMD_ASSOC_SHKEY fails, asoc->shkey remains NULL, whileasoc->peer.auth_capable and asoc->peer.peer_chunks have already been set bySCTP_CMD_PEER_INIT. This allows a DATA chunk with auth = 1 and shkey = NULLto be queued by sctp_datamsg_from_user().Since command interpretation stops on failure, no COOKIE_ECHO should beensent via SCTP_CMD_GEN_COOKIE_ECHO. However, the T1_COOKIE timer has alreadybeen started, and it may enqueue a COOKIE_ECHO into the outqueue later. Asa result, the DATA chunk can be transmitted together with the COOKIE_ECHOin sctp_outq_flush_data(), leading to the observed issue.Similar to the other places where it calls sctp_auth_asoc_init_active_key()right after sctp_process_init(), this patch moves the SCTP_CMD_ASSOC_SHKEYimmediately after SCTP_CMD_PEER_INIT, before stopping T1_INIT and startingT1_COOKIE. This ensures that if shared key generation fails, authenticatedDATA cannot be sent. It also allows the T1_INIT timer to retransmit INIT,giving the client another chance to process INIT_ACK and retry key setup.

CVE-2026-23128 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:arm64: Set __nocfi on swsusp_arch_resume()A DABT is reported[1] on an android based system when resume from hiberate.This happens because swsusp_arch_suspend_exit() is marked with SYM_CODE_*()and does not have a CFI hash, but swsusp_arch_resume() will attempt toverify the CFI hash when calling a copy of swsusp_arch_suspend_exit().Given that there's an existing requirement that the entrypoint toswsusp_arch_suspend_exit() is the first byte of the .hibernate_exit.textsection, we cannot fix this by marking swsusp_arch_suspend_exit() withSYM_FUNC_*(). The simplest fix for now is to disable the CFI check inswsusp_arch_resume().Mark swsusp_arch_resume() as __nocfi to disable the CFI check.[1][ 22.991934][ T1] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 0000000109170ffc[ 22.991934][ T1] Mem abort info:[ 22.991934][ T1] ESR = 0x0000000096000007[ 22.991934][ T1] EC = 0x25: DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits[ 22.991934][ T1] SET = 0, FnV = 0[ 22.991934][ T1] EA = 0, S1PTW = 0[ 22.991934][ T1] FSC = 0x07: level 3 translation fault[ 22.991934][ T1] Data abort info:[ 22.991934][ T1] ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000007, ISS2 = 0x00000000[ 22.991934][ T1] CM = 0, WnR = 0, TnD = 0, TagAccess = 0[ 22.991934][ T1] GCS = 0, Overlay = 0, DirtyBit = 0, Xs = 0[ 22.991934][ T1] [0000000109170ffc] user address but active_mm is swapper[ 22.991934][ T1] Internal error: Oops: 0000000096000007 [#1] PREEMPT SMP[ 22.991934][ T1] Dumping ftrace buffer:[ 22.991934][ T1] (ftrace buffer empty)[ 22.991934][ T1] Modules linked in:[ 22.991934][ T1] CPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.6.98-android15-8-g0b1d2aee7fc3-dirty-4k #1 688c7060a825a3ac418fe53881730b355915a419[ 22.991934][ T1] Hardware name: Unisoc UMS9360-base Board (DT)[ 22.991934][ T1] pstate: 804000c5 (Nzcv daIF +PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--)[ 22.991934][ T1] pc : swsusp_arch_resume+0x2ac/0x344[ 22.991934][ T1] lr : swsusp_arch_resume+0x294/0x344[ 22.991934][ T1] sp : ffffffc08006b960[ 22.991934][ T1] x29: ffffffc08006b9c0 x28: 0000000000000000 x27: 0000000000000000[ 22.991934][ T1] x26: 0000000000000000 x25: 0000000000000000 x24: 0000000000000820[ 22.991934][ T1] x23: ffffffd0817e3000 x22: ffffffd0817e3000 x21: 0000000000000000[ 22.991934][ T1] x20: ffffff8089171000 x19: ffffffd08252c8c8 x18: ffffffc080061058[ 22.991934][ T1] x17: 00000000529c6ef0 x16: 00000000529c6ef0 x15: 0000000000000004[ 22.991934][ T1] x14: ffffff8178c88000 x13: 0000000000000006 x12: 0000000000000000[ 22.991934][ T1] x11: 0000000000000015 x10: 0000000000000001 x9 : ffffffd082533000[ 22.991934][ T1] x8 : 0000000109171000 x7 : 205b5d3433393139 x6 : 392e32322020205b[ 22.991934][ T1] x5 : 000000010916f000 x4 : 000000008164b000 x3 : ffffff808a4e0530[ 22.991934][ T1] x2 : ffffffd08058e784 x1 : 0000000082326000 x0 : 000000010a283000[ 22.991934][ T1] Call trace:[ 22.991934][ T1] swsusp_arch_resume+0x2ac/0x344[ 22.991934][ T1] hibernation_restore+0x158/0x18c[ 22.991934][ T1] load_image_and_restore+0xb0/0xec[ 22.991934][ T1] software_resume+0xf4/0x19c[ 22.991934][ T1] software_resume_initcall+0x34/0x78[ 22.991934][ T1] do_one_initcall+0xe8/0x370[ 22.991934][ T1] do_initcall_level+0xc8/0x19c[ 22.991934][ T1] do_initcalls+0x70/0xc0[ 22.991934][ T1] do_basic_setup+0x1c/0x28[ 22.991934][ T1] kernel_init_freeable+0xe0/0x148[ 22.991934][ T1] kernel_init+0x20/0x1a8[ 22.991934][ T1] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20[ 22.991934][ T1] Code: a9400a61 f94013e0 f9438923 f9400a64 (b85fc110)[catalin.marinas@arm.com: commit log updated by Mark Rutland]

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:dpll: Prevent duplicate registrationsModify the internal registration helpers dpll_xa_ref_{dpll,pin}_add()to reject duplicate registration attempts.Previously, if a caller attempted to register the same pin multipletimes (with the same ops, priv, and cookie) on the same device, the coresilently increments the reference count and return success. This behavioris incorrect because if the caller makes these duplicate registrationsthen for the first one dpll_pin_registration is allocated and for othersthe associated dpll_pin_ref.refcount is incremented. During the firstunregistration the associated dpll_pin_registration is freed and forothers WARN is fired.Fix this by updating the logic to return `-EEXIST` if a matchingregistration is found to enforce a strict "register once" policy.

CVE-2026-23136 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:libceph: reset sparse-read state in osd_fault()When a fault occurs, the connection is abandoned, reestablished, and anypending operations are retried. The OSD client tracks the progress of asparse-read reply using a separate state machine, largely independent ofthe messenger's state.If a connection is lost mid-payload or the sparse-read state machinereturns an error, the sparse-read state is not reset. The OSD clientwill then interpret the beginning of a new reply as the continuation ofthe old one. If this makes the sparse-read machinery enter a failurestate, it may never recover, producing loops like: libceph: [0] got 0 extents libceph: data len 142248331 != extent len 0 libceph: osd0 (1)...:6801 socket error on read libceph: data len 142248331 != extent len 0 libceph: osd0 (1)...:6801 socket error on readTherefore, reset the sparse-read state in osd_fault(), ensuring retriesstart from a clean state.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:tracing: Add recursion protection in kernel stack trace recordingA bug was reported about an infinite recursion caused by tracing the rcuevents with the kernel stack trace trigger enabled. The stack trace codecalled back into RCU which then called the stack trace again.Expand the ftrace recursion protection to add a set of bits to protectevents from recursion. Each bit represents the context that the event isin (normal, softirq, interrupt and NMI).Have the stack trace code use the interrupt context to protect againstrecursion.Note, the bug showed an issue in both the RCU code as well as the tracingstacktrace code.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:bpf, test_run: Subtract size of xdp_frame from allowed metadata sizeThe xdp_frame structure takes up part of the XDP frame headroom,limiting the size of the metadata. However, in bpf_test_run, we don'ttake this into account, which makes it possible for userspace to supplya metadata size that is too large (taking up the entire headroom).If userspace supplies such a large metadata size in live packet mode,the xdp_update_frame_from_buff() call in xdp_test_run_init_page() callwill fail, after which packet transmission proceeds with anuninitialised frame structure, leading to the usual Bad Stuff.The commit in the Fixes tag fixed a related bug where the second checkin xdp_update_frame_from_buff() could fail, but did not add anyadditional constraints on the metadata size. Complete the fix by addingan additional check on the metadata size. Reorder the checks slightly tomake the logic clearer and add a comment.

CVE-2026-23154 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: fix segmentation of forwarding fraglist GROThis patch enhances GSO segment handling by properly checkingthe SKB_GSO_DODGY flag for frag_list GSO packets, addressinglow throughput issues observed when a station accesses IPv4servers via hotspots with an IPv6-only upstream interface.Specifically, it fixes a bug in GSO segmentation when forwardingGRO packets containing a frag_list. The function skb_segment_listcannot correctly process GRO skbs that have been converted by XLAT,since XLAT only translates the header of the head skb. Consequently,skbs in the frag_list may remain untranslated, resulting in protocolinconsistencies and reduced throughput.To address this, the patch explicitly sets the SKB_GSO_DODGY flagfor GSO packets in XLAT's IPv4/IPv6 protocol translation helpers(bpf_skb_proto_4_to_6 and bpf_skb_proto_6_to_4). This marks GSOpackets as potentially modified after protocol translation. As aresult, GSO segmentation will avoid using skb_segment_list andinstead falls back to skb_segment for packets with the SKB_GSO_DODGYflag. This ensures that only safe and fully translated frag_listpackets are processed by skb_segment_list, resolving protocolinconsistencies and improving throughput when forwarding GRO packetsconverted by XLAT.

CVE-2026-23157 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:btrfs: do not strictly require dirty metadata threshold for metadata writepages[BUG]There is an internal report that over 1000 processes arewaiting at the io_schedule_timeout() of balance_dirty_pages(), causinga system hang and trigger a kernel coredump.The kernel is v6.4 kernel based, but the root problem still applies toany upstream kernel before v6.18.[CAUSE]From Jan Kara for his wisdom on the dirty page balance behavior first. This cgroup dirty limit was what was actually playing the role here because the cgroup had only a small amount of memory and so the dirty limit for it was something like 16MB. Dirty throttling is responsible for enforcing that nobody can dirty (significantly) more dirty memory than there's dirty limit. Thus when a task is dirtying pages it periodically enters into balance_dirty_pages() and we let it sleep there to slow down the dirtying. When the system is over dirty limit already (either globally or within a cgroup of the running task), we will not let the task exit from balance_dirty_pages() until the number of dirty pages drops below the limit. So in this particular case, as I already mentioned, there was a cgroup with relatively small amount of memory and as a result with dirty limit set at 16MB. A task from that cgroup has dirtied about 28MB worth of pages in btrfs btree inode and these were practically the only dirty pages in that cgroup.So that means the only way to reduce the dirty pages of that cgroup isto writeback the dirty pages of btrfs btree inode, and only after thatthose processes can exit balance_dirty_pages().Now back to the btrfs part, btree_writepages() is responsible forwriting back dirty btree inode pages.The problem here is, there is a btrfs internal threshold that if thebtree inode's dirty bytes are below the 32M threshold, it will notdo any writeback.This behavior is to batch as much metadata as possible so we won't writeback those tree blocks and then later re-COW them again for anothermodification.This internal 32MiB is higher than the existing dirty page size (28MiB),meaning no writeback will happen, causing a deadlock between btrfs andcgroup:- Btrfs doesn't want to write back btree inode until more dirty pages- Cgroup/MM doesn't want more dirty pages for btrfs btree inode Thus any process touching that btree inode is put into sleep until the number of dirty pages is reduced.Thanks Jan Kara a lot for the analysis of the root cause.[ENHANCEMENT]Since kernel commit b55102826d7d ("btrfs: set AS_KERNEL_FILE on thebtree_inode"), btrfs btree inode pages will only be charged to the rootcgroup which should have a much larger limit than btrfs' 32MiBthreshold.So it should not affect newer kernels.But for all current LTS kernels, they are all affected by this problem,and backporting the whole AS_KERNEL_FILE may not be a good idea.Even for newer kernels I still think it's a good idea to getrid of the internal threshold at btree_writepages(), since for most casescgroup/MM has a better view of full system memory usage than btrfs' fixedthreshold.For internal callers using btrfs_btree_balance_dirty() since thatfunction is already doing internal threshold check, we don't need tobother them.But for external callers of btree_writepages(), just respect theirrequests and write back whatever they want, ignoring the internalbtrfs threshold to avoid such deadlock on btree inode dirty pagebalancing.

This leads to a memory leak ofsizeof(struct ofdpa_port) bytes per port on every device removal.Fix this by always calling kfree(rocker_port->wpriv) regardless ofwhether the port_post_fini callback exists.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: wwan: t7xx: fix potential skb->frags overflow in RX pathWhen receiving data in the DPMAIF RX path,the t7xx_dpmaif_set_frag_to_skb() function addspage fragments to an skb without checking if the number offragments has exceeded MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This could lead to a buffer overflowin skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[] array, corrupting adjacent memory andpotentially causing kernel crashes or other undefined behavior.This issue was identified through static code analysis by comparing with asimilar vulnerability fixed in the mt76 driver commit b102f0c522cf ("mt76:fix array overflow on receiving too many fragments for a packet").The vulnerability could be triggered if the modem firmware sends packetswith excessive fragments. While under normal protocol conditions (MTU 3080bytes, BAT buffer 3584 bytes),a single packet should not require additionalfragments, the kernel should not blindly trust firmware behavior.Malicious, buggy, or compromised firmware could potentially craft packetswith more fragments than the kernel expects.Fix this by adding a bounds check before calling skb_add_rx_frag() toensure nr_frags does not exceed MAX_SKB_FRAGS.The check must be performed before unmapping to avoid a page leakand double DMA unmap during device teardown.

After the vmware hypercall it now contains0x40003e54, and we get a page fault as a result when it is dereferenced.The proper fix would be in QEMU, but this works around the issue in thekernel to keep old setups working, when old kernels had not happened tokeep any state in %rdi over the hypercall.In theory this same issue exists for all the hypercalls in the vmmousedriver; in practice it has only been seen with vmware_hypercall3() andvmware_hypercall4(). For now, just mark RDI/RSI as clobbered for thosetwo calls. This should have a minimal effect on code generation overallas it should be rare for the compiler to want to make RDI/RSI liveacross hypercalls.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net/sched: Only allow act_ct to bind to clsact/ingress qdiscs and shared blocksAs Paolo said earlier [1]:"Since the blamed commit below, classify can return TC_ACT_CONSUMED whilethe current skb being held by the defragmentation engine. As reported byGangMin Kim, if such packet is that may cause a UaF when the defrag enginelater on tries to tuch again such packet."act_ct was never meant to be used in the egress path, however some usersare attaching it to egress today [2]. Attempting to reach a middleground, we noticed that, while most qdiscs are not handlingTC_ACT_CONSUMED, clsact/ingress qdiscs are. With that in mind, weaddress the issue by only allowing act_ct to bind to clsact/ingressqdiscs and shared blocks. That way it's still possible to attach act_ct toegress (albeit only with clsact).[1] https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/674b8cbfc385c6f37fb29a1de08d8fe5c2b0fbee.1771321118.git.pabeni@redhat.com/[2] https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/cc6bfb4a-4a2b-42d8-b9ce-7ef6644fb22b@ovn.org/

CVE-2026-23287 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:irqchip/sifive-plic: Fix frozen interrupt due to affinity settingPLIC ignores interrupt completion message for disabled interrupt, explainedby the specification: The PLIC signals it has completed executing an interrupt handler by writing the interrupt ID it received from the claim to the claim/complete register. The PLIC does not check whether the completion ID is the same as the last claim ID for that target. If the completion ID does not match an interrupt source that is currently enabled for the target, the completion is silently ignored.This caused problems in the past, because an interrupt can be disabledwhile still being handled and plic_irq_eoi() had no effect. That was fixedby checking if the interrupt is disabled, and if so enable it, beforesending the completion message. That check is done with irqd_irq_disabled().However, that is not sufficient because the enable bit for the handlinghart can be zero despite irqd_irq_disabled(d) being false. This can happenwhen affinity setting is changed while a hart is still handling theinterrupt.This problem is easily reproducible by dumping a large file to uart (whichgenerates lots of interrupts) and at the same time keep changing the uartinterrupt's affinity setting. The uart port becomes frozen almostinstantaneously.Fix this by checking PLIC's enable bit instead of irqd_irq_disabled().

CVE-2026-23343 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:xdp: produce a warning when calculated tailroom is negativeMany ethernet drivers report xdp Rx queue frag size as being the same asDMA write size. However, the only user of this field, namelybpf_xdp_frags_increase_tail(), clearly expects a truesize.Such difference leads to unspecific memory corruption issues under certaincircumstances, e.g. in ixgbevf maximum DMA write size is 3 KB, so whenrunning xskxceiver's XDP_ADJUST_TAIL_GROW_MULTI_BUFF, 6K packet fully usesall DMA-writable space in 2 buffers. This would be fine, if onlyrxq->frag_size was properly set to 4K, but value of 3K results in anegative tailroom, because there is a non-zero page offset.We are supposed to return -EINVAL and be done with it in such case, but dueto tailroom being stored as an unsigned int, it is reported to be somewherenear UINT_MAX, resulting in a tail being grown, even if the requestedoffset is too much (it is around 2K in the abovementioned test). This laterleads to all kinds of unspecific calltraces.[ 7340.337579] xskxceiver[1440]: segfault at 1da718 ip 00007f4161aeac9d sp 00007f41615a6a00 error 6[ 7340.338040] xskxceiver[1441]: segfault at 7f410000000b ip 00000000004042b5 sp 00007f415bffecf0 error 4[ 7340.338179] in libc.so.6[61c9d,7f4161aaf000+160000][ 7340.339230] in xskxceiver[42b5,400000+69000][ 7340.340300] likely on CPU 6 (core 0, socket 6)[ 7340.340302] Code: ff ff 01 e9 f4 fe ff ff 0f 1f 44 00 00 4c 39 f0 74 73 31 c0 ba 01 00 00 00 f0 0f b1 17 0f 85 ba 00 00 00 49 8b 87 88 00 00 00 <4c> 89 70 08 eb cc 0f 1f 44 00 00 48 8d bd f0 fe ff ff 89 85 ec fe[ 7340.340888] likely on CPU 3 (core 0, socket 3)[ 7340.345088] Code: 00 00 00 ba 00 00 00 00 be 00 00 00 00 89 c7 e8 31 ca ff ff 89 45 ec 8b 45 ec 85 c0 78 07 b8 00 00 00 00 eb 46 e8 0b c8 ff ff <8b> 00 83 f8 69 74 24 e8 ff c7 ff ff 8b 00 83 f8 0b 74 18 e8 f3 c7[ 7340.404334] Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0x6d255010bdffc: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI[ 7340.405972] CPU: 7 UID: 0 PID: 1439 Comm: xskxceiver Not tainted 6.19.0-rc1+ #21 PREEMPT(lazy)[ 7340.408006] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.17.0-5.fc42 04/01/2014[ 7340.409716] RIP: 0010:lookup_swap_cgroup_id+0x44/0x80[ 7340.410455] Code: 83 f8 1c 73 39 48 ba ff ff ff ff ff ff ff 03 48 8b 04 c5 20 55 fa bd 48 21 d1 48 89 ca 83 e1 01 48 d1 ea c1 e1 04 48 8d 04 90 <8b> 00 48 83 c4 10 d3 e8 c3 cc cc cc cc 31 c0 e9 98 b7 dd 00 48 89[ 7340.412787] RSP: 0018:ffffcc5c04f7f6d0 EFLAGS: 00010202[ 7340.413494] RAX: 0006d255010bdffc RBX: ffff891f477895a8 RCX: 0000000000000010[ 7340.414431] RDX: 0001c17e3fffffff RSI: 00fa070000000000 RDI: 000382fc7fffffff[ 7340.415354] RBP: 00fa070000000000 R08: ffffcc5c04f7f8f8 R09: ffffcc5c04f7f7d0[ 7340.416283] R10: ffff891f4c1a7000 R11: ffffcc5c04f7f9c8 R12: ffffcc5c04f7f7d0[ 7340.417218] R13: 03ffffffffffffff R14: 00fa06fffffffe00 R15: ffff891f47789500[ 7340.418229] FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff891ffdfaa000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000[ 7340.419489] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033[ 7340.420286] CR2: 00007f415bfffd58 CR3: 0000000103f03002 CR4: 0000000000772ef0[ 7340.421237] PKRU: 55555554[ 7340.421623] Call Trace:[ 7340.421987] [ 7340.422309] ? softleaf_from_pte+0x77/0xa0[ 7340.422855] swap_pte_batch+0xa7/0x290[ 7340.423363] zap_nonpresent_ptes.constprop.0.isra.0+0xd1/0x270[ 7340.424102] zap_pte_range+0x281/0x580[ 7340.424607] zap_pmd_range.isra.0+0xc9/0x240[ 7340.425177] unmap_page_range+0x24d/0x420[ 7340.425714] unmap_vmas+0xa1/0x180[ 7340.426185] exit_mmap+0xe1/0x3b0[ 7340.426644] __mmput+0x41/0x150[ 7340.427098] exit_mm+0xb1/0x110[ 7340.427539] do_exit+0x1b2/0x460[ 7340.427992] do_group_exit+0x2d/0xc0[ 7340.428477] get_signal+0x79d/0x7e0[ 7340.428957] arch_do_signal_or_restart+0x34/0x100[ 7340.429571] exit_to_user_mode_loop+0x8e/0x4c0[ 7340.430159] do_syscall_64+0x188/---truncated---

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:cxl: Fix race of nvdimm_bus object when creating nvdimm objectsFound issue during running of cxl-translate.sh unit test. Adding a 3ssleep right before the test seems to make the issue reproduce fairlyconsistently. The cxl_translate module has dependency on cxl_acpi andcauses orphaned nvdimm objects to reprobe after cxl_acpi is removed.The nvdimm_bus object is registered by the cxl_nvb object whencxl_acpi_probe() is called. With the nvdimm_bus object missing,__nd_device_register() will trigger NULL pointer dereference whenaccessing the dev->parent that points to &nvdimm_bus->dev.[ 192.884510] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000006c[ 192.895383] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS edk2-20250812-19.fc42 08/12/2025[ 192.897721] Workqueue: cxl_port cxl_bus_rescan_queue [cxl_core][ 192.899459] RIP: 0010:kobject_get+0xc/0x90[ 192.924871] Call Trace:[ 192.925959] [ 192.926976] ? pm_runtime_init+0xb9/0xe0[ 192.929712] __nd_device_register.part.0+0x4d/0xc0 [libnvdimm][ 192.933314] __nvdimm_create+0x206/0x290 [libnvdimm][ 192.936662] cxl_nvdimm_probe+0x119/0x1d0 [cxl_pmem][ 192.940245] cxl_bus_probe+0x1a/0x60 [cxl_core][ 192.943349] really_probe+0xde/0x380This patch also relies on the previous change wheredevm_cxl_add_nvdimm_bridge() is called from drivers/cxl/pmem.c insteadof drivers/cxl/core.c to ensure the dependency of cxl_acpi on cxl_pmem.1. Set probe_type of cxl_nvb to PROBE_FORCE_SYNCHRONOUS to ensure the driver is probed synchronously when add_device() is called.2. Add a check in __devm_cxl_add_nvdimm_bridge() to ensure that the cxl_nvb driver is attached during cxl_acpi_probe().3. Take the cxl_root uport_dev lock and the cxl_nvb->dev lock in devm_cxl_add_nvdimm() before checking nvdimm_bus is valid.4. Set cxl_nvdimm flag to CXL_NVD_F_INVALIDATED so cxl_nvdimm_probe() will exit with -EBUSY.The removal of cxl_nvdimm devices should prevent any orphaned devicesfrom probing once the nvdimm_bus is gone.[ dj: Fixed 0-day reported kdoc issue. ][ dj: Fix cxl_nvb reference leak on error.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: split gc into unlink and reclaim phaseYiming Qian reports Use-after-free in the pipapo set type: Under a large number of expired elements, commit-time GC can run for a very long time in a non-preemptible context, triggering soft lockup warnings and RCU stall reports (local denial of service).We must split GC in an unlink and a reclaim phase.We cannot queue elements for freeing until pointers have been swapped.Expired elements are still exposed to both the packet path and userspacedumpers via the live copy of the data structure.call_rcu() does not protect us: dump operations or element lookups startingafter call_rcu has fired can still observe the free'd element, unless thecommit phase has made enough progress to swap the clone and live pointersbefore any new reader has picked up the old version.This a similar approach as done recently for the rbtree backend in commit35f83a75529a ("netfilter: nft_set_rbtree: don't gc elements on insert").

CVE-2026-23352 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:x86/efi: defer freeing of boot services memoryefi_free_boot_services() frees memory occupied by EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_CODEand EFI_BOOT_SERVICES_DATA using memblock_free_late().There are two issue with that: memblock_free_late() should be used formemory allocated with memblock_alloc() while the memory reserved withmemblock_reserve() should be freed with free_reserved_area().More acutely, with CONFIG_DEFERRED_STRUCT_PAGE_INIT=yefi_free_boot_services() is called before deferred initialization of thememory map is complete.Benjamin Herrenschmidt reports that this causes a leak of ~140MB ofRAM on EC2 t3a.nano instances which only have 512MB or RAM.If the freed memory resides in the areas that memory map for them isstill uninitialized, they won't be actually freed becausememblock_free_late() calls memblock_free_pages() and the latter skipsuninitialized pages.Using free_reserved_area() at this point is also problematic because__free_page() accesses the buddy of the freed page and that again mightend up in uninitialized part of the memory map.Delaying the entire efi_free_boot_services() could be problematicbecause in addition to freeing boot services memory it updatesefi.memmap without any synchronization and that's undesirable late inboot when there is concurrency.More robust approach is to only defer freeing of the EFI boot servicesmemory.Split efi_free_boot_services() in two. First efi_unmap_boot_services()collects ranges that should be freed into an array thenefi_free_boot_services() later frees them after deferred init is complete.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ice: change XDP RxQ frag_size from DMA write length to xdp.frame_szThe only user of frag_size field in XDP RxQ info isbpf_xdp_frags_increase_tail(). It clearly expects whole buff size insteadof DMA write size. Different assumptions in ice driver configuration leadto negative tailroom.This allows to trigger kernel panic, when usingXDP_ADJUST_TAIL_GROW_MULTI_BUFF xskxceiver test and changing packet size to6912 and the requested offset to a huge value, e.g.XSK_UMEM__MAX_FRAME_SIZE * 100.Due to other quirks of the ZC configuration in ice, panic is not observedin ZC mode, but tailroom growing still fails when it should not.Use fill queue buffer truesize instead of DMA write size in XDP RxQ info.Fix ZC mode too by using the new helper.

CVE-2026-23383 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:bpf, arm64: Force 8-byte alignment for JIT buffer to prevent atomic tearingstruct bpf_plt contains a u64 target field. Currently, the BPF JITallocator requests an alignment of 4 bytes (sizeof(u32)) for the JITbuffer.Because the base address of the JIT buffer can be 4-byte aligned (e.g.,ending in 0x4 or 0xc), the relative padding logic in build_plt() failsto ensure that target lands on an 8-byte boundary.This leads to two issues:1. UBSAN reports misaligned-access warnings when dereferencing the structure.2. More critically, target is updated concurrently via WRITE_ONCE() in bpf_arch_text_poke() while the JIT'd code executes ldr. On arm64, 64-bit loads/stores are only guaranteed to be single-copy atomic if they are 64-bit aligned. A misaligned target risks a torn read, causing the JIT to jump to a corrupted address.Fix this by increasing the allocation alignment requirement to 8 bytes(sizeof(u64)) in bpf_jit_binary_pack_alloc(). This anchors the base ofthe JIT buffer to an 8-byte boundary, allowing the relative padding mathin build_plt() to correctly align the target field.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:gve: fix incorrect buffer cleanup in gve_tx_clean_pending_packets for QPLIn DQ-QPL mode, gve_tx_clean_pending_packets() incorrectly uses the RDAbuffer cleanup path. It iterates num_bufs times and attempts to unmapentries in the dma array.This leads to two issues:1. The dma array shares storage with tx_qpl_buf_ids (union). Interpreting buffer IDs as DMA addresses results in attempting to unmap incorrect memory locations.2. num_bufs in QPL mode (counting 2K chunks) can significantly exceed the size of the dma array, causing out-of-bounds access warnings(trace below is how we noticed this issue).UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds indrivers/net/ethernet/drivers/net/ethernet/google/gve/gve_tx_dqo.c:178:5 index 18 is out ofrange for type 'dma_addr_t[18]' (aka 'unsigned long long[18]')Workqueue: gve gve_service_task [gve]Call Trace:dump_stack_lvl+0x33/0xa0__ubsan_handle_out_of_bounds+0xdc/0x110gve_tx_stop_ring_dqo+0x182/0x200 [gve]gve_close+0x1be/0x450 [gve]gve_reset+0x99/0x120 [gve]gve_service_task+0x61/0x100 [gve]process_scheduled_works+0x1e9/0x380Fix this by properly checking for QPL mode and delegating togve_free_tx_qpl_bufs() to reclaim the buffers.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:drm/amdgpu: Limit BO list entry count to prevent resource exhaustionUserspace can pass an arbitrary number of BO list entries via thebo_number field. Although the previous multiplication overflow checkprevents out-of-bounds allocation, a large number of entries could stillcause excessive memory allocation (up to potentially gigabytes) andunnecessarily long list processing times.Introduce a hard limit of 128k entries per BO list, which is more thansufficient for any realistic use case (e.g., a single list containing allbuffers in a large scene). This prevents memory exhaustion attacks andensures predictable performance.Return -EINVAL if the requested entry count exceeds the limit(cherry picked from commit 688b87d39e0aa8135105b40dc167d74b5ada5332)

CVE-2026-25645 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: Requests is a HTTP library. Prior to version 2.33.0, the `requests.utils.extract_zipped_paths()` utility function uses a predictable filename when extracting files from zip archives into the system temporary directory. If the target file already exists, it is reused without validation. A local attacker with write access to the temp directory could pre-create a malicious file that would be loaded in place of the legitimate one. Standard usage of the Requests library is not affected by this vulnerability. Only applications that call `extract_zipped_paths()` directly are impacted. Starting in version 2.33.0, the library extracts files to a non-deterministic location. If developers are unable to upgrade, they can set `TMPDIR` in their environment to a directory with restricted write access.

Description: systemd, a system and service manager, (as PID 1) hits an assert and freezes execution when an unprivileged IPC API call is made with spurious data. On version v249 and older the effect is not an assert, but stack overwriting, with the attacker controlled content. From version v250 and newer this is not possible as the safety check causes an assert instead. This IPC call was added in v239, so versions older than that are not affected.

CVE-2026-31411 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: atm: fix crash due to unvalidated vcc pointer in sigd_send()Reproducer available at [1].The ATM send path (sendmsg -> vcc_sendmsg -> sigd_send) reads the vccpointer from msg->vcc and uses it directly without any validation. Thispointer comes from userspace via sendmsg() and can be arbitrarily forged: int fd = socket(AF_ATMSVC, SOCK_DGRAM, 0); ioctl(fd, ATMSIGD_CTRL); // become ATM signaling daemon struct msghdr msg = { .msg_iov = &iov, ... }; *(unsigned long *)(buf + 4) = 0xdeadbeef; // fake vcc pointer sendmsg(fd, &msg, 0); // kernel dereferences 0xdeadbeefIn normal operation, the kernel sends the vcc pointer to the signalingdaemon via sigd_enq() when processing operations like connect(), bind(),or listen(). The daemon is expected to return the same pointer whenresponding. However, a malicious daemon can send arbitrary pointer values.Fix this by introducing find_get_vcc() which validates the pointer bysearching through vcc_hash (similar to how sigd_close() iterates overall VCCs), and acquires a reference via sock_hold() if found.Since struct atm_vcc embeds struct sock as its first member, they sharethe same lifetime. Therefore using sock_hold/sock_put is sufficient tokeep the vcc alive while it is being used.Note that there may be a race with sigd_close() which could mark the vccwith various flags (e.g., ATM_VF_RELEASED) after find_get_vcc() returns.However, sock_hold() guarantees the memory remains valid, so this raceonly affects the logical state, not memory safety.[1]: https://gist.github.com/mrpre/1ba5949c45529c511152e2f4c755b0f3

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:bridge: mrp: reject zero test interval to avoid OOM panicbr_mrp_start_test() and br_mrp_start_in_test() accept the user-suppliedinterval value from netlink without validation. When interval is 0,usecs_to_jiffies(0) yields 0, causing the delayed work(br_mrp_test_work_expired / br_mrp_in_test_work_expired) to rescheduleitself with zero delay. This creates a tight loop on system_percpu_wqthat allocates and transmits MRP test frames at maximum rate, exhaustingall system memory and causing a kernel panic via OOM deadlock.The same zero-interval issue applies to br_mrp_start_in_test_parse()for interconnect test frames.Use NLA_POLICY_MIN(NLA_U32, 1) in the nla_policy tables for bothIFLA_BRIDGE_MRP_START_TEST_INTERVAL andIFLA_BRIDGE_MRP_START_IN_TEST_INTERVAL, so zero is rejected at thenetlink attribute parsing layer before the value ever reaches theworkqueue scheduling code. This is consistent with how other bridgesubsystems (br_fdb, br_mst) enforce range constraints on netlinkattributes.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: skb: fix cross-cache free of KFENCE-allocated skb headSKB_SMALL_HEAD_CACHE_SIZE is intentionally set to a non-power-of-2value (e.g. 704 on x86_64) to avoid collisions with generic kmallocbucket sizes. This ensures that skb_kfree_head() can reliably useskb_end_offset to distinguish skb heads allocated fromskb_small_head_cache vs. generic kmalloc caches.However, when KFENCE is enabled, kfence_ksize() returns the exactrequested allocation size instead of the slab bucket size. If a caller(e.g. bpf_test_init) allocates skb head data via kzalloc() and therequested size happens to equal SKB_SMALL_HEAD_CACHE_SIZE, thenslab_build_skb() -> ksize() returns that exact value. After subtractingskb_shared_info overhead, skb_end_offset ends up matchingSKB_SMALL_HEAD_HEADROOM, causing skb_kfree_head() to incorrectly freethe object to skb_small_head_cache instead of back to the originalkmalloc cache, resulting in a slab cross-cache free: kmem_cache_free(skbuff_small_head): Wrong slab cache.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ksmbd: fix use-after-free and NULL deref in smb_grant_oplock()smb_grant_oplock() has two issues in the oplock publication sequence:1) opinfo is linked into ci->m_op_list (via opinfo_add) before add_lease_global_list() is called. If add_lease_global_list() fails (kmalloc returns NULL), the error path frees the opinfo via __free_opinfo() while it is still linked in ci->m_op_list. Concurrent m_op_list readers (opinfo_get_list, or direct iteration in smb_break_all_levII_oplock) dereference the freed node.2) opinfo->o_fp is assigned after add_lease_global_list() publishes the opinfo on the global lease list. A concurrent find_same_lease_key() can walk the lease list and dereference opinfo->o_fp->f_ci while o_fp is still NULL.Fix by restructuring the publication sequence to eliminate post-publishfailure:- Set opinfo->o_fp before any list publication (fixes NULL deref).- Preallocate lease_table via alloc_lease_table() before opinfo_add() so add_lease_global_list() becomes infallible after publication.- Keep the original m_op_list publication order (opinfo_add before lease list) so concurrent opens via same_client_has_lease() and opinfo_get_list() still see the in-flight grant.- Use opinfo_put() instead of __free_opinfo() on err_out so that the RCU-deferred free path is used.This also requires splitting add_lease_global_list() to take apreallocated lease_table and changing its return type from int to void,since it can no longer fail.

CVE-2026-31449 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ext4: validate p_idx bounds in ext4_ext_correct_indexesext4_ext_correct_indexes() walks up the extent tree correctingindex entries when the first extent in a leaf is modified. Beforeaccessing path[k].p_idx->ei_block, there is no validation thatp_idx falls within the valid range of index entries for thatlevel.If the on-disk extent header contains a corrupted or craftedeh_entries value, p_idx can point past the end of the allocatedbuffer, causing a slab-out-of-bounds read.Fix this by validating path[k].p_idx against EXT_LAST_INDEX() atboth access sites: before the while loop and inside it. Return-EFSCORRUPTED if the index pointer is out of range, consistentwith how other bounds violations are handled in the ext4 extenttree code.

CVE-2026-31452 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ext4: convert inline data to extents when truncate exceeds inline sizeAdd a check in ext4_setattr() to convert files from inline data storageto extent-based storage when truncate() grows the file size beyond theinline capacity. This prevents the filesystem from entering aninconsistent state where the inline data flag is set but the file sizeexceeds what can be stored inline.Without this fix, the following sequence causes a kernel BUG_ON():1. Mount filesystem with inode that has inline flag set and small size2. truncate(file, 50MB) - grows size but inline flag remains set3. sendfile() attempts to write data4. ext4_write_inline_data() hits BUG_ON(write_size > inline_capacity)The crash occurs because ext4_write_inline_data() expects inline storageto accommodate the write, but the actual inline capacity (~60 bytes fori_block + ~96 bytes for xattrs) is far smaller than the file size andwrite request.The fix checks if the new size from setattr exceeds the inode's actualinline capacity (EXT4_I(inode)->i_inline_size) and converts the file toextent-based storage before proceeding with the size change.This addresses the root cause by ensuring the inline data flag and filesize remain consistent during truncate operations.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ksmbd: fix memory leaks and NULL deref in smb2_lock()smb2_lock() has three error handling issues after list_del() detachessmb_lock from lock_list at no_check_cl:1) If vfs_lock_file() returns an unexpected error in the non-UNLOCK path, goto out leaks smb_lock and its flock because the out: handler only iterates lock_list and rollback_list, neither of which contains the detached smb_lock.2) If vfs_lock_file() returns -ENOENT in the UNLOCK path, goto out leaks smb_lock and flock for the same reason. The error code returned to the dispatcher is also stale.3) In the rollback path, smb_flock_init() can return NULL on allocation failure. The result is dereferenced unconditionally, causing a kernel NULL pointer dereference. Add a NULL check to prevent the crash and clean up the bookkeeping; the VFS lock itself cannot be rolled back without the allocation and will be released at file or connection teardown.Fix cases 1 and 2 by hoisting the locks_free_lock()/kfree() to beforethe if(!rc) check in the UNLOCK branch so all exit paths share onefree site, and by freeing smb_lock and flock before goto out in thenon-UNLOCK branch. Propagate the correct error code in both cases.Fix case 3 by wrapping the VFS unlock in an if(rlock) guard and addinga NULL check for locks_free_lock(rlock) in the shared cleanup.Found via call-graph analysis using sqry.

CVE-2026-33947 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: jq is a command-line JSON processor. In versions 1.8.1 and below, functions jv_setpath(), jv_getpath(), and delpaths_sorted() in jq's src/jv_aux.c use unbounded recursion whose depth is controlled by the length of a caller-supplied path array, with no depth limit enforced. An attacker can supply a JSON document containing a flat array of ~65,000 integers (~200 KB) that, when used as a path argument by a trusted jq filter, exhausts the C call stack and crashes the process with a segmentation fault (SIGSEGV). This bypass works because the existing MAX_PARSING_DEPTH (10,000) limit only protects the JSON parser, not runtime path operations where arrays can be programmatically constructed to arbitrary lengths. The impact is denial of service (unrecoverable crash) affecting any application or service that processes untrusted JSON input through jq's setpath, getpath, or delpaths builtins. This issue has been addressed in commit fb59f1491058d58bdc3e8dd28f1773d1ac690a1f.

Description: jq is a command-line JSON processor. In commits after 69785bf77f86e2ea1b4a20ca86775916889e91c9, the _strindices builtin in jq's src/builtin.c passes its arguments directly to jv_string_indexes() without verifying they are strings, and jv_string_indexes() in src/jv.c relies solely on assert() checks that are stripped in release builds compiled with -DNDEBUG. This allows an attacker to crash jq trivially with input like _strindices(0), and by crafting a numeric value whose IEEE-754 bit pattern maps to a chosen pointer, achieve a controlled pointer dereference and limited memory read/probe primitive. Any deployment that evaluates untrusted jq filters against a release build is vulnerable. This issue has been patched in commit fdf8ef0f0810e3d365cdd5160de43db46f57ed03.

CVE-2026-40164 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: jq is a command-line JSON processor. Before commit 0c7d133c3c7e37c00b6d46b658a02244fdd3c784, jq used MurmurHash3 with a hardcoded, publicly visible seed (0x432A9843) for all JSON object hash table operations, which allowed an attacker to precompute key collisions offline. By supplying a crafted JSON object (~100 KB) where all keys hashed to the same bucket, hash table lookups degraded from O(1) to O(n), turning any jq expression into an O(n^2) operation and causing significant CPU exhaustion. This affected common jq use cases such as CI/CD pipelines, web services, and data processing scripts, and was far more practical to exploit than existing heap overflow issues since it required only a small payload. This issue has been patched in commit 0c7d133c3c7e37c00b6d46b658a02244fdd3c784.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ceph: fix race condition validating r_parent before applying stateAdd validation to ensure the cached parent directory inode matches thedirectory info in MDS replies. This prevents client-side race conditionswhere concurrent operations (e.g. rename) cause r_parent to become stalebetween request initiation and reply processing, which could lead toapplying state changes to incorrect directory inodes.[ idryomov: folded a kerneldoc fixup and a follow-up fix from Alex to move CEPH_CAP_PIN reference when r_parent is updated: When the parent directory lock is not held, req->r_parent can become stale and is updated to point to the correct inode. However, the associated CEPH_CAP_PIN reference was not being adjusted. The CEPH_CAP_PIN is a reference on an inode that is tracked for accounting purposes. Moving this pin is important to keep the accounting balanced. When the pin was not moved from the old parent to the new one, it created two problems: The reference on the old, stale parent was never released, causing a reference leak. A reference for the new parent was never acquired, creating the risk of a reference underflow later in ceph_mdsc_release_request(). This patch corrects the logic by releasing the pin from the old parent and acquiring it for the new parent when r_parent is switched. This ensures reference accounting stays balanced. ]

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:btrfs: ensure no dirty metadata is written back for an fs with errors[BUG]During development of a minor feature (make sure all btrfs_bio::end_io()is called in task context), I noticed a crash in generic/388, wheremetadata writes triggered new works after btrfs_stop_all_workers().It turns out that it can even happen without any code modification, justusing RAID5 for metadata and the same workload from generic/388 is goingto trigger the use-after-free.[CAUSE]If btrfs hits an error, the fs is marked as error, no newtransaction is allowed thus metadata is in a frozen state.But there are some metadata modifications before that error, and they arestill in the btree inode page cache.Since there will be no real transaction commit, all those dirty foliosare just kept as is in the page cache, and they can not be invalidatedby invalidate_inode_pages2() call inside close_ctree(), because they aredirty.And finally after btrfs_stop_all_workers(), we call iput() on btreeinode, which triggers writeback of those dirty metadata.And if the fs is using RAID56 metadata, this will trigger RMW and queuenew works into rmw_workers, which is already stopped, causing warningfrom queue_work() and use-after-free.[FIX]Add a special handling for write_one_eb(), that if the fs is already inan error state, immediately mark the bbio as failure, instead of reallysubmitting them.Then during close_ctree(), iput() will just discard all those dirtytree blocks without really writing them back, thus no more new jobs foralready stopped-and-freed workqueues.The extra discard in write_one_eb() also acts as an extra safenet.E.g. the transaction abort is triggered by some extent/free spacetree corruptions, and since extent/free space tree is already corruptedsome tree blocks may be allocated where they shouldn't be (overwritingexisting tree blocks). In that case writing them back will furthercorrupting the fs.

CVE-2025-66471 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.3

Description: urllib3 is a user-friendly HTTP client library for Python. Starting in version 1.0 and prior to 2.6.0, the Streaming API improperly handles highly compressed data. urllib3's streaming API is designed for the efficient handling of large HTTP responses by reading the content in chunks, rather than loading the entire response body into memory at once. When streaming a compressed response, urllib3 can perform decoding or decompression based on the HTTP Content-Encoding header (e.g., gzip, deflate, br, or zstd). The library must read compressed data from the network and decompress it until the requested chunk size is met. Any resulting decompressed data that exceeds the requested amount is held in an internal buffer for the next read operation. The decompression logic could cause urllib3 to fully decode a small amount of highly compressed data in a single operation. This can result in excessive resource consumption (high CPU usage and massive memory allocation for the decompressed data.

CVE-2025-71225 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.3

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:md: suspend array while updating raid_disks via sysfsIn raid1_reshape(), freeze_array() is called before modifying the r1biomemory pool (conf->r1bio_pool) and conf->raid_disks, andunfreeze_array() is called after the update is completed.However, freeze_array() only waits until nr_sync_pending and(nr_pending - nr_queued) of all buckets reaches zero. When an I/O erroroccurs, nr_queued is increased and the corresponding r1bio is queued toeither retry_list or bio_end_io_list. As a result, freeze_array() mayunblock before these r1bios are released.This can lead to a situation where conf->raid_disks and the mempool havealready been updated while queued r1bios, allocated with the oldraid_disks value, are later released. Consequently, free_r1bio() mayaccess memory out of bounds in put_all_bios() and release r1bios of thewrong size to the new mempool, potentially causing issues with themempool as well.Since only normal I/O might increase nr_queued while an I/O error occurs,suspending the array avoids this issue.Note: Updating raid_disks via ioctl SET_ARRAY_INFO already suspendsthe array. Therefore, we suspend the array when updating raid_disksvia sysfs to avoid this issue too.

CVE-2026-22979 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.3

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: fix memory leak in skb_segment_list for GRO packetsWhen skb_segment_list() is called during packet forwarding, it handlespackets that were aggregated by the GRO engine.Historically, the segmentation logic in skb_segment_list assumes thatindividual segments are split from a parent SKB and may need to carrytheir own socket memory accounting. Accordingly, the code transferstruesize from the parent to the newly created segments.Prior to commit ed4cccef64c1 ("gro: fix ownership transfer"), thistruesize subtraction in skb_segment_list() was valid because fragmentsstill carry a reference to the original socket.However, commit ed4cccef64c1 ("gro: fix ownership transfer") changedthis behavior by ensuring that fraglist entries are explicitlyorphaned (skb->sk = NULL) to prevent illegal orphaning later in thestack. This change meant that the entire socket memory charge remainedwith the head SKB, but the corresponding accounting logic inskb_segment_list() was never updated.As a result, the current code unconditionally adds each fragment'struesize to delta_truesize and subtracts it from the parent SKB. Sincethe fragments are no longer charged to the socket, this subtractionresults in an effective under-count of memory when the head is freed.This causes sk_wmem_alloc to remain non-zero, preventing socketdestruction and leading to a persistent memory leak.The leak can be observed via KMEMLEAK when tearing down the networkingenvironment:unreferenced object 0xffff8881e6eb9100 (size 2048): comm "ping", pid 6720, jiffies 4295492526 backtrace: kmem_cache_alloc_noprof+0x5c6/0x800 sk_prot_alloc+0x5b/0x220 sk_alloc+0x35/0xa00 inet6_create.part.0+0x303/0x10d0 __sock_create+0x248/0x640 __sys_socket+0x11b/0x1d0Since skb_segment_list() is exclusively used for SKB_GSO_FRAGLISTpackets constructed by GRO, the truesize adjustment is removed.The call to skb_release_head_state() must be preserved. As documented incommit cf673ed0e057 ("net: fix fraglist segmentation reference countleak"), it is still required to correctly drop references to SKBextensions that may be overwritten during __copy_skb_header().

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:scsi: qla2xxx: Sanitize payload size to prevent member overflowIn qla27xx_copy_fpin_pkt() and qla27xx_copy_multiple_pkt(), the frame_sizereported by firmware is used to calculate the copy length intoitem->iocb. However, the iocb member is defined as a fixed-size 64-bytearray within struct purex_item.If the reported frame_size exceeds 64 bytes, subsequent memcpy calls willoverflow the iocb member boundary. While extra memory might be allocated,this cross-member write is unsafe and triggers warnings underCONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE.Fix this by capping total_bytes to the size of the iocb member (64 bytes)before allocation and copying. This ensures all copies remain within thebounds of the destination structure member.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:atm: lec: fix null-ptr-deref in lec_arp_clear_vccssyzkaller reported a null-ptr-deref in lec_arp_clear_vccs().This issue can be easily reproduced using the syzkaller reproducer.In the ATM LANE (LAN Emulation) module, the same atm_vcc can be shared bymultiple lec_arp_table entries (e.g., via entry->vcc or entry->recv_vcc).When the underlying VCC is closed, lec_vcc_close() iterates over allARP entries and calls lec_arp_clear_vccs() for each matched entry.For example, when lec_vcc_close() iterates through the hlists inpriv->lec_arp_empty_ones or other ARP tables:1. In the first iteration, for the first matched ARP entry sharing the VCC,lec_arp_clear_vccs() frees the associated vpriv (which is vcc->user_back)and sets vcc->user_back to NULL.2. In the second iteration, for the next matched ARP entry sharing the sameVCC, lec_arp_clear_vccs() is called again. It obtains a NULL vpriv fromvcc->user_back (via LEC_VCC_PRIV(vcc)) and then attempts to dereference itvia `vcc->pop = vpriv->old_pop`, leading to a null-ptr-deref crash.Fix this by adding a null check for vpriv before dereferencingit. If vpriv is already NULL, it means the VCC has been clearedby a previous call, so we can safely skip the cleanup and justclear the entry's vcc/recv_vcc pointers.The entire cleanup block (including vcc_release_async()) is placed insidethe vpriv guard because a NULL vpriv indicates the VCC has already beenfully released by a prior iteration - repeating the teardown wouldredundantly set flags and trigger callbacks on an already-closing socket.The Fixes tag points to the initial commit because the entry->vcc path hasbeen vulnerable since the original code. The entry->recv_vcc path was lateradded by commit 8d9f73c0ad2f ("atm: fix a memory leak of vcc->user_back")with the same pattern, and both paths are fixed here.

Description: Vim is an open source, command line text editor. From 9.1.0011 to before 9.2.0137, Vim's NFA regex compiler, when encountering a collection containing a combining character as the endpoint of a character range (e.g. [0-0\u05bb]), incorrectly emits the composing bytes of that character as separate NFA states. This corrupts the NFA postfix stack, resulting in NFA_START_COLL having a NULL out1 pointer. When nfa_max_width() subsequently traverses the compiled NFA to estimate match width for the look-behind assertion, it dereferences state->out1->out without a NULL check, causing a segmentation fault. This vulnerability is fixed in 9.2.0137.

CVE-2026-33948 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.3

Description: jq is a command-line JSON processor. Commits before 6374ae0bcdfe33a18eb0ae6db28493b1f34a0a5b contain a vulnerability where CLI input parsing allows validation bypass via embedded NUL bytes. When reading JSON from files or stdin, jq uses strlen() to determine buffer length instead of the actual byte count from fgets(), causing it to truncate input at the first NUL byte and parse only the preceding prefix. This enables an attacker to craft input with a benign JSON prefix before a NUL byte followed by malicious trailing data, where jq validates only the prefix as valid JSON while silently discarding the suffix. Workflows relying on jq to validate untrusted JSON before forwarding it to downstream consumers are susceptible to parser differential attacks, as those consumers may process the full input including the malicious trailing bytes. This issue has been patched by commit 6374ae0bcdfe33a18eb0ae6db28493b1f34a0a5b.

CVE-2026-3446 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.3

Description: When calling base64.b64decode() or related functions the decoding process would stop after encountering the first padded quad regardless of whether there was more information to be processed. This can lead to data being accepted which may be processed differently by other implementations. Use "validate=True" to enable stricter processing of base64 data.

CVE-2025-71197 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.1

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:w1: therm: Fix off-by-one buffer overflow in alarms_storeThe sysfs buffer passed to alarms_store() is allocated with 'size + 1'bytes and a NUL terminator is appended. However, the 'size' argumentdoes not account for this extra byte. The original code then allocated'size' bytes and used strcpy() to copy 'buf', which always writes onebyte past the allocated buffer since strcpy() copies until the NULterminator at index 'size'.Fix this by parsing the 'buf' parameter directly using simple_strtoll()without allocating any intermediate memory or string copying. Thisremoves the overflow while simplifying the code.

CVE-2026-34757 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.1

Description: LIBPNG is a reference library for use in applications that read, create, and manipulate PNG (Portable Network Graphics) raster image files. From 1.0.9 to before 1.6.57, passing a pointer obtained from png_get_PLTE, png_get_tRNS, or png_get_hIST back into the corresponding setter on the same png_struct/png_info pair causes the setter to read from freed memory and copy its contents into the replacement buffer. The setter frees the internal buffer before copying from the caller-supplied pointer, which now dangles. The freed region may contain stale data (producing silently corrupted chunk metadata) or data from subsequent heap allocations (leaking unrelated heap contents into the chunk struct). This vulnerability is fixed in 1.6.57.

CVE-2025-68778 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.7

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:btrfs: don't log conflicting inode if it's a dir moved in the current transactionWe can't log a conflicting inode if it's a directory and it was movedfrom one parent directory to another parent directory in the currenttransaction, as this can result an attempt to have a directory withtwo hard links during log replay, one for the old parent directory andanother for the new parent directory.The following scenario triggers that issue:1) We have directories "dir1" and "dir2" created in a past transaction. Directory "dir1" has inode A as its parent directory;2) We move "dir1" to some other directory;3) We create a file with the name "dir1" in directory inode A;4) We fsync the new file. This results in logging the inode of the new file and the inode for the directory "dir1" that was previously moved in the current transaction. So the log tree has the INODE_REF item for the new location of "dir1";5) We move the new file to some other directory. This results in updating the log tree to included the new INODE_REF for the new location of the file and removes the INODE_REF for the old location. This happens during the rename when we call btrfs_log_new_name();6) We fsync the file, and that persists the log tree changes done in the previous step (btrfs_log_new_name() only updates the log tree in memory);7) We have a power failure;8) Next time the fs is mounted, log replay happens and when processing the inode for directory "dir1" we find a new INODE_REF and add that link, but we don't remove the old link of the inode since we have not logged the old parent directory of the directory inode "dir1".As a result after log replay finishes when we trigger writeback of thesubvolume tree's extent buffers, the tree check will detect that we havea directory a hard link count of 2 and we get a mount failure.The errors and stack traces reported in dmesg/syslog are like this: [ 3845.729764] BTRFS info (device dm-0): start tree-log replay [ 3845.730304] page: refcount:3 mapcount:0 mapping:000000005c8a3027 index:0x1d00 pfn:0x11510c [ 3845.731236] memcg:ffff9264c02f4e00 [ 3845.731751] aops:btree_aops [btrfs] ino:1 [ 3845.732300] flags: 0x17fffc00000400a(uptodate|private|writeback|node=0|zone=2|lastcpupid=0x1ffff) [ 3845.733346] raw: 017fffc00000400a 0000000000000000 dead000000000122 ffff9264d978aea8 [ 3845.734265] raw: 0000000000001d00 ffff92650e6d4738 00000003ffffffff ffff9264c02f4e00 [ 3845.735305] page dumped because: eb page dump [ 3845.735981] BTRFS critical (device dm-0): corrupt leaf: root=5 block=30408704 slot=6 ino=257, invalid nlink: has 2 expect no more than 1 for dir [ 3845.737786] BTRFS info (device dm-0): leaf 30408704 gen 10 total ptrs 17 free space 14881 owner 5 [ 3845.737789] BTRFS info (device dm-0): refs 4 lock_owner 0 current 30701 [ 3845.737792] item 0 key (256 INODE_ITEM 0) itemoff 16123 itemsize 160 [ 3845.737794] inode generation 3 transid 9 size 16 nbytes 16384 [ 3845.737795] block group 0 mode 40755 links 1 uid 0 gid 0 [ 3845.737797] rdev 0 sequence 2 flags 0x0 [ 3845.737798] atime 1764259517.0 [ 3845.737800] ctime 1764259517.572889464 [ 3845.737801] mtime 1764259517.572889464 [ 3845.737802] otime 1764259517.0 [ 3845.737803] item 1 key (256 INODE_REF 256) itemoff 16111 itemsize 12 [ 3845.737805] index 0 name_len 2 [ 3845.737807] item 2 key (256 DIR_ITEM 2363071922) itemoff 16077 itemsize 34 [ 3845.737808] location key (257 1 0) type 2 [ 3845.737810] transid 9 data_len 0 name_len 4 [ 3845.737811] item 3 key (256 DIR_ITEM 2676584006) itemoff 16043 itemsize 34 [ 3845.737813] location key (258 1 0) type 2 [ 3845.737814] transid 9 data_len 0 name_len 4 [ 3845.737815] item 4 key (256 DIR_INDEX 2) itemoff 16009 itemsize 34 [ 3845.737816] location key (257 1 0) type 2 [---truncated---

CVE-2025-71194 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.7

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:btrfs: fix deadlock in wait_current_trans() due to ignored transaction typeWhen wait_current_trans() is called during start_transaction(), itcurrently waits for a blocked transaction without considering whetherthe given transaction type actually needs to wait for that particulartransaction state. The btrfs_blocked_trans_types[] array already defineswhich transaction types should wait for which transaction states, butthis check was missing in wait_current_trans().This can lead to a deadlock scenario involving two transactions andpending ordered extents: 1. Transaction A is in TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_DOING state 2. A worker processing an ordered extent calls start_transaction() with TRANS_JOIN 3. join_transaction() returns -EBUSY because Transaction A is in TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_DOING 4. Transaction A moves to TRANS_STATE_UNBLOCKED and completes 5. A new Transaction B is created (TRANS_STATE_RUNNING) 6. The ordered extent from step 2 is added to Transaction B's pending ordered extents 7. Transaction B immediately starts commit by another task and enters TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START 8. The worker finally reaches wait_current_trans(), sees Transaction B in TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START (a blocked state), and waits unconditionally 9. However, TRANS_JOIN should NOT wait for TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START according to btrfs_blocked_trans_types[] 10. Transaction B is waiting for pending ordered extents to complete 11. Deadlock: Transaction B waits for ordered extent, ordered extent waits for Transaction BThis can be illustrated by the following call stacks: CPU0 CPU1 btrfs_finish_ordered_io() start_transaction(TRANS_JOIN) join_transaction() # -EBUSY (Transaction A is # TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_DOING) # Transaction A completes # Transaction B created # ordered extent added to # Transaction B's pending list btrfs_commit_transaction() # Transaction B enters # TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START # waiting for pending ordered # extents wait_current_trans() # waits for Transaction B # (should not wait!)Task bstore_kv_sync in btrfs_commit_transaction waiting for orderedextents: __schedule+0x2e7/0x8a0 schedule+0x64/0xe0 btrfs_commit_transaction+0xbf7/0xda0 [btrfs] btrfs_sync_file+0x342/0x4d0 [btrfs] __x64_sys_fdatasync+0x4b/0x80 do_syscall_64+0x33/0x40 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xa9Task kworker in wait_current_trans waiting for transaction commit: Workqueue: btrfs-syno_nocow btrfs_work_helper [btrfs] __schedule+0x2e7/0x8a0 schedule+0x64/0xe0 wait_current_trans+0xb0/0x110 [btrfs] start_transaction+0x346/0x5b0 [btrfs] btrfs_finish_ordered_io.isra.0+0x49b/0x9c0 [btrfs] btrfs_work_helper+0xe8/0x350 [btrfs] process_one_work+0x1d3/0x3c0 worker_thread+0x4d/0x3e0 kthread+0x12d/0x150 ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30Fix this by passing the transaction type to wait_current_trans() andchecking btrfs_blocked_trans_types[cur_trans->state] against the giventype before deciding to wait.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:can: kvaser_usb: kvaser_usb_read_bulk_callback(): fix URB memory leakFix similar memory leak as in commit 7352e1d5932a ("can: gs_usb:gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): fix URB memory leak").In kvaser_usb_set_{,data_}bittiming() -> kvaser_usb_setup_rx_urbs(), theURBs for USB-in transfers are allocated, added to the dev->rx_submittedanchor and submitted. In the complete callbackkvaser_usb_read_bulk_callback(), the URBs are processed and resubmitted. Inkvaser_usb_remove_interfaces() the URBs are freed by callingusb_kill_anchored_urbs(&dev->rx_submitted).However, this does not take into account that the USB framework unanchorsthe URB before the complete function is called. This means that once anin-URB has been completed, it is no longer anchored and is ultimately notreleased in usb_kill_anchored_urbs().Fix the memory leak by anchoring the URB in thekvaser_usb_read_bulk_callback() to the dev->rx_submitted anchor.

CVE-2026-23110 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.7

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:scsi: core: Wake up the error handler when final completions race against each otherThe fragile ordering between marking commands completed or failed sothat the error handler only wakes when the last running commandcompletes or times out has race conditions. These race conditions cancause the SCSI layer to fail to wake the error handler, leaving I/Othrough the SCSI host stuck as the error state cannot advance.First, there is an memory ordering issue within scsi_dec_host_busy().The write which clears SCMD_STATE_INFLIGHT may be reordered with readscounting in scsi_host_busy(). While the local CPU will see its ownwrite, reordering can allow other CPUs in scsi_dec_host_busy() orscsi_eh_inc_host_failed() to see a raised busy count, causing no CPU tosee a host busy equal to the host_failed count.This race condition can be prevented with a memory barrier on the errorpath to force the write to be visible before counting host busycommands.Second, there is a general ordering issue with scsi_eh_inc_host_failed(). Bycounting busy commands before incrementing host_failed, it can race with afinal command in scsi_dec_host_busy(), such that scsi_dec_host_busy() doesnot see host_failed incremented but scsi_eh_inc_host_failed() counts busycommands before SCMD_STATE_INFLIGHT is cleared by scsi_dec_host_busy(),resulting in neither waking the error handler task.This needs the call to scsi_host_busy() to be moved after host_failed isincremented to close the race condition.

CVE-2026-23198 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.7

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:KVM: Don't clobber irqfd routing type when deassigning irqfdWhen deassigning a KVM_IRQFD, don't clobber the irqfd's copy of the IRQ'srouting entry as doing so breaks kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer() on x86and arm64, which explicitly look for KVM_IRQ_ROUTING_MSI. Instead, tohandle a concurrent routing update, verify that the irqfd is still activebefore consuming the routing information. As evidenced by the x86 andarm64 bugs, and another bug in kvm_arch_update_irqfd_routing() (see below),clobbering the entry type without notifying arch code is surprising anderror prone.As a bonus, checking that the irqfd is active provides a convenientlocation for documenting _why_ KVM must not consume the routing entry foran irqfd that is in the process of being deassigned: once the irqfd isdeleted from the list (which happens *before* the eventfd is detached), itwill no longer receive updates via kvm_irq_routing_update(), and so KVMcould deliver an event using stale routing information (relative toKVM_SET_GSI_ROUTING returning to userspace).As an even better bonus, explicitly checking for the irqfd being activefixes a similar bug to the one the clobbering is trying to prevent: if anirqfd is deactivated, and then its routing is changed,kvm_irq_routing_update() won't invoke kvm_arch_update_irqfd_routing()(because the irqfd isn't in the list). And so if the irqfd is in bypassmode, IRQs will continue to be posted using the old routing information.As for kvm_arch_irq_bypass_del_producer(), clobbering the routing typeresults in KVM incorrectly keeping the IRQ in bypass mode, which isespecially problematic on AMD as KVM tracks IRQs that are being posted toa vCPU in a list whose lifetime is tied to the irqfd.Without the help of KASAN to detect use-after-free, the most commonsympton on AMD is a NULL pointer deref in amd_iommu_update_ga() due tothe memory for irqfd structure being re-allocated and zeroed, resultingin irqfd->irq_bypass_data being NULL when read byavic_update_iommu_vcpu_affinity(): BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000018 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 40cf2b9067 P4D 40cf2b9067 PUD 408362a067 PMD 0 Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP CPU: 6 UID: 0 PID: 40383 Comm: vfio_irq_test Tainted: G U W O 6.19.0-smp--5dddc257e6b2-irqfd #31 NONE Tainted: [U]=USER, [W]=WARN, [O]=OOT_MODULE Hardware name: Google, Inc.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: add proper RCU protection to /proc/net/ptypeYin Fengwei reported an RCU stall in ptype_seq_show() and provideda patch.Real issue is that ptype_seq_next() and ptype_seq_show() violateRCU rules.ptype_seq_show() runs under rcu_read_lock(), and reads pt->devto get device name without any barrier.At the same time, concurrent writers can remove a packet_type structure(which is correctly freed after an RCU grace period) and clear pt->devwithout an RCU grace period.Define ptype_iter_state to carry a dev pointer along seq_net_private:struct ptype_iter_state { struct seq_net_private p; struct net_device *dev; // added in this patch};We need to record the device pointer in ptype_get_idx() andptype_seq_next() so that ptype_seq_show() is safe againstconcurrent pt->dev changes.We also need to add full RCU protection in ptype_seq_next().(Missing READ_ONCE() when reading list.next values)Many thanks to Dong Chenchen for providing a repro.

This might lead to bandwidth accountingcorruption, as enqueue_task_dl() won't recognize the lock holder asboosted.The scenario occurs when:1. A DEADLINE task (donor) blocks on a PI mutex held by another DEADLINE task (holder), but the holder doesn't inherit parameters (e.g., it already has a shorter deadline)2. sched_setscheduler() changes the holder from DEADLINE to a lower class while still holding the mutex3. The holder should now inherit DEADLINE parameters from the donor and be enqueued with ENQUEUE_REPLENISH, but this doesn't happenFix the issue by introducing __setscheduler_dl_pi(), which detects whena DEADLINE (proper or boosted) task gets setscheduled to a lowerpriority class. In case, the function makes the task inherit DEADLINEparameters of the donoer (pi_se) and sets ENQUEUE_REPLENISH flag toensure proper bandwidth accounting during the next enqueue operation.

CVE-2026-23414 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.7

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:tls: Purge async_hold in tls_decrypt_async_wait()The async_hold queue pins encrypted input skbs whilethe AEAD engine references their scatterlist data. Oncetls_decrypt_async_wait() returns, every AEAD operationhas completed and the engine no longer references thoseskbs, so they can be freed unconditionally.A subsequent patch adds batch async decryption totls_sw_read_sock(), introducing a new call site thatmust drain pending AEAD operations and release heldskbs. Move __skb_queue_purge(&ctx->async_hold) intotls_decrypt_async_wait() so the purge is centralizedand every caller -- recvmsg's drain path, the -EBUSYfallback in tls_do_decryption(), and the new read_sockbatch path -- releases held skbs on synchronizationwithout each site managing the purge independently.This fixes a leak when tls_strp_msg_hold() fails part-way through,after having added some cloned skbs to the async_holdqueue. tls_decrypt_sg() will then call tls_decrypt_async_wait() toprocess all pending decrypts, and drop back to synchronous mode, buttls_sw_recvmsg() only flushes the async_hold queue when one record hasbeen processed in "fully-async" mode, which may not be the case here.[pabeni@redhat.com: added leak comment]

CVE-2026-23440 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.7

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net/mlx5e: Fix race condition during IPSec ESN updateIn IPSec full offload mode, the device reports an ESN (ExtendedSequence Number) wrap event to the driver. The driver validates thisevent by querying the IPSec ASO and checking that the esn_event_armfield is 0x0, which indicates an event has occurred. After handlingthe event, the driver must re-arm the context by setting esn_event_armback to 0x1.A race condition exists in this handling path. After validating theevent, the driver calls mlx5_accel_esp_modify_xfrm() to update thekernel's xfrm state. This function temporarily releases andre-acquires the xfrm state lock.So, need to acknowledge the event first by setting esn_event_arm to0x1. This prevents the driver from reprocessing the same ESN update ifthe hardware sends events for other reason. Since the next ESN updateonly occurs after nearly 2^31 packets are received, there's no risk ofmissing an update, as it will happen long after this handling hasfinished.Processing the event twice causes the ESN high-order bits (esn_msb) tobe incremented incorrectly. The driver then programs the hardware withthis invalid ESN state, which leads to anti-replay failures and acomplete halt of IPSec traffic.Fix this by re-arming the ESN event immediately after it is validated,before calling mlx5_accel_esp_modify_xfrm(). This ensures that anyspurious, duplicate events are correctly ignored, closing the racewindow.

CVE-2026-23473 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.7

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:io_uring/poll: fix multishot recv missing EOF on wakeup raceWhen a socket send and shutdown() happen back-to-back, both firewake-ups before the receiver's task_work has a chance to run. The firstwake gets poll ownership (poll_refs=1), and the second bumps it to 2.When io_poll_check_events() runs, it calls io_poll_issue() which does arecv that reads the data and returns IOU_RETRY. The loop then drains allaccumulated refs (atomic_sub_return(2) -> 0) and exits, even though onlythe first event was consumed. Since the shutdown is a persistent statechange, no further wakeups will happen, and the multishot recv can hangforever.Check specifically for HUP in the poll loop, and ensure that anotherloop is done to check for status if more than a single poll activationis pending. This ensures we don't lose the shutdown event.

CVE-2026-27456 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.7

Description: util-linux is a random collection of Linux utilities. Prior to version 2.41.4, a TOCTOU (Time-of-Check-Time-of-Use) vulnerability has been identified in the SUID binary /usr/bin/mount from util-linux. The mount binary, when setting up loop devices, validates the source file path with user privileges via fork() + setuid() + realpath(), but subsequently re-canonicalizes and opens it with root privileges (euid=0) without verifying that the path has not been replaced between both operations. Neither O_NOFOLLOW, nor inode comparison, nor post-open fstat() are employed. This allows a local unprivileged user to replace the source file with a symlink pointing to any root-owned file or device during the race window, causing the SUID binary to open and mount it as root. Exploitation requires an /etc/fstab entry with user,loop options whose path points to a directory where the attacker has write permission, and that /usr/bin/mount has the SUID bit set (the default configuration on virtually all Linux distributions). The impact is unauthorized read access to root-protected files and block devices, including backup images, disk volumes, and any file containing a valid filesystem. This issue has been patched in version 2.41.4.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:NFSD: Defer sub-object cleanup in export put callbackssvc_export_put() calls path_put() and auth_domain_put() immediatelywhen the last reference drops, before the RCU grace period. RCUreaders in e_show() and c_show() access both ex_path (viaseq_path/d_path) and ex_client->name (via seq_escape) withoutholding a reference. If cache_clean removes the entry and drops thelast reference concurrently, the sub-objects are freed while stillin use, producing a NULL pointer dereference in d_path.Commit 2530766492ec ("nfsd: fix UAF when access ex_uuid orex_stats") moved kfree of ex_uuid and ex_stats into thecall_rcu callback, but left path_put() and auth_domain_put() runningbefore the grace period because both may sleep and call_rcucallbacks execute in softirq context.Replace call_rcu/kfree_rcu with queue_rcu_work(), which defers thecallback until after the RCU grace period and executes it in processcontext where sleeping is permitted. This allows path_put() andauth_domain_put() to be moved into the deferred callback alongsidethe other resource releases. Apply the same fix to expkey_put(),which has the identical pattern with ek_path and ek_client.A dedicated workqueue scopes the shutdown drain to only NFSDexport release work items; flushing the sharedsystem_unbound_wq would stall on unrelated work from othersubsystems. nfsd_export_shutdown() uses rcu_barrier() followedby flush_workqueue() to ensure all deferred release callbackscomplete before the export caches are destroyed.Reviwed-by: Jeff Layton

However rtp_addr is only initialized inside themedia loop when a recognized media type with a non-zero port is found.If the SDP body contains no m= lines, only inactive media sections(m=audio 0 ...) or only unrecognized media types, rtp_addr is neverassigned. Despite that, the function still calls hooks->sdp_session()with &rtp_addr, causing nf_nat_sdp_session() to format the stale stackvalue as an IP address and rewrite the SDP session owner and connectionlines with it.With CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO (default on most distributions) thisresults in the session-level o= and c= addresses being rewritten to0.0.0.0 for inactive SDP sessions. Without stack auto-init therewritten address is whatever happened to be on the stack.Fix this by pre-initializing rtp_addr from the session-level connectionaddress (caddr) when available, and tracking via a have_rtp_addr flagwhether any valid address was established. Skip the sdp_session hookentirely when no valid address exists.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: core: prevent NULL deref in generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower()The ethtool tsconfig Netlink path can trigger a null pointerdereference. A call chain such as: tsconfig_prepare_data() -> dev_get_hwtstamp_phylib() -> vlan_hwtstamp_get() -> generic_hwtstamp_get_lower() -> generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower()results in generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower() being called withkernel_cfg->ifr as NULL.The generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower() function does not expecta NULL ifr and dereferences it, leading to a system crash.Fix this by adding a NULL check for kernel_cfg->ifr ingeneric_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower(). If ifr is NULL, return -EINVAL.

There was a device discovery/fabric scan inprogress. A module unload was issued which set the UNLOADING flag. Aspart of the discovery, after receiving an interrupt a work queue wasscheduled (which involved a work to be queued). Since the UNLOADINGflag is set, the work item was not allocated and the mapped memory hadto be freed. The free occurred in interrupt context leading to systemcrash. Delay the driver unload until the fabric scan is complete toavoid the crash.

CVE-2026-23213 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.4

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:drm/amd/pm: Disable MMIO access during SMU Mode 1 resetDuring Mode 1 reset, the ASIC undergoes a reset cycle and becomestemporarily inaccessible via PCIe. Any attempt to access MMIO registersduring this window (e.g., from interrupt handlers or other driver threads)can result in uncompleted PCIe transactions, leading to NMI panics orsystem hangs.To prevent this, set the `no_hw_access` flag to true immediately aftertriggering the reset. This signals other driver components to skipregister accesses while the device is offline.A memory barrier `smp_mb()` is added to ensure the flag update isglobally visible to all cores before the driver enters the sleep/waitstate.(cherry picked from commit 7edb503fe4b6d67f47d8bb0dfafb8e699bb0f8a4)

Thisfunction called filp_open(), following which these functions were called(in reverse order), according to the call trace: down_read __configfs_open_file do_dentry_open vfs_open do_open path_openat do_filp_open file_open_name filp_open target_core_item_dbroot_store flush_write_buffer configfs_write_itertarget_core_item_dbroot_store() tries to validate the new file path bytrying to open the file path provided to it; however, in this case, the bugreport shows:db_root: not a directory: /sys/kernel/config/target/dbrootindicating that the same configfs file was tried to be opened, on which itis currently working on. Thus, it is trying to acquire frag_sem semaphoreof the same file of which it already holds the semaphore obtained inflush_write_buffer(), leading to acquiring the semaphore in a nested mannerand a possibility of recursive locking.Fix this by modifying target_core_item_dbroot_store() to use kern_path()instead of filp_open() to avoid opening the file using filesystem-specificfunction __configfs_open_file(), and further modifying it to make this fixcompatible.

CVE-2026-23300 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.4

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: ipv6: fix panic when IPv4 route references loopback IPv6 nexthopWhen a standalone IPv6 nexthop object is created with a loopback device(e.g., "ip -6 nexthop add id 100 dev lo"), fib6_nh_init() misclassifiesit as a reject route. This is because nexthop objects have no destinationprefix (fc_dst=::), causing fib6_is_reject() to match any loopbacknexthop. The reject path skips fib_nh_common_init(), leavingnhc_pcpu_rth_output unallocated. If an IPv4 route later references thisnexthop, __mkroute_output() dereferences NULL nhc_pcpu_rth_output andpanics.Simplify the check in fib6_nh_init() to only match explicit rejectroutes (RTF_REJECT) instead of using fib6_is_reject(). The loopbackpromotion heuristic in fib6_is_reject() is handled separately byip6_route_info_create_nh(). After this change, the three cases behaveas follows:1. Explicit reject route ("ip -6 route add unreachable 2001:db8::/64"): RTF_REJECT is set, enters reject path, skips fib_nh_common_init(). No behavior change.2. Implicit loopback reject route ("ip -6 route add 2001:db8::/32 dev lo"): RTF_REJECT is not set, takes normal path, fib_nh_common_init() is called. ip6_route_info_create_nh() still promotes it to reject afterward. nhc_pcpu_rth_output is allocated but unused, which is harmless.3. Standalone nexthop object ("ip -6 nexthop add id 100 dev lo"): RTF_REJECT is not set, takes normal path, fib_nh_common_init() is called. nhc_pcpu_rth_output is properly allocated, fixing the crash when IPv4 routes reference this nexthop.

CVE-2026-23310 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.4

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:bpf/bonding: reject vlan+srcmac xmit_hash_policy change when XDP is loadedbond_option_mode_set() already rejects mode changes that would make aloaded XDP program incompatible via bond_xdp_check(). However,bond_option_xmit_hash_policy_set() has no such guard.For 802.3ad and balance-xor modes, bond_xdp_check() returns false whenxmit_hash_policy is vlan+srcmac, because the 802.1q payload is usuallyabsent due to hardware offload. This means a user can:1. Attach a native XDP program to a bond in 802.3ad/balance-xor mode with a compatible xmit_hash_policy (e.g. layer2+3).2. Change xmit_hash_policy to vlan+srcmac while XDP remains loaded.This leaves bond->xdp_prog set but bond_xdp_check() now returning falsefor the same device. When the bond is later destroyed, dev_xdp_uninstall()calls bond_xdp_set(dev, NULL, NULL) to remove the program, which hitsthe bond_xdp_check() guard and returns -EOPNOTSUPP, triggering:WARN_ON(dev_xdp_install(dev, mode, bpf_op, NULL, 0, NULL))Fix this by rejecting xmit_hash_policy changes to vlan+srcmac when anXDP program is loaded on a bond in 802.3ad or balance-xor mode.commit 39a0876d595b ("net, bonding: Disallow vlan+srcmac with XDP")introduced bond_xdp_check() which returns false for 802.3ad/balance-xormodes when xmit_hash_policy is vlan+srcmac. The check was wired intobond_xdp_set() to reject XDP attachment with an incompatible policy, butthe symmetric path -- preventing xmit_hash_policy from being changed to anincompatible value after XDP is already loaded -- was left unguarded inbond_option_xmit_hash_policy_set().Note:commit 094ee6017ea0 ("bonding: check xdp prog when set bond mode")later added a similar guard to bond_option_mode_set(), butbond_option_xmit_hash_policy_set() remained unprotected.

(lines 291-307, especially 298) - `net/ipv6/datagram.c:ip6_datagram_send_ctl()`: - Accepts repeated `IPV6_DSTOPTS` and accumulates into `opt_flen` without rejecting duplicates. (lines 909-933) - `net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:__ip6_append_data()`: - Uses `opt->opt_flen + opt->opt_nflen` to compute header sizes/headroom decisions. (lines 1448-1466, especially 1463-1465) - `net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:__ip6_make_skb()`: - Calls `ipv6_push_frag_opts()` if `opt->opt_flen` is non-zero. (lines 1930-1934) - `net/ipv6/exthdrs.c:ipv6_push_frag_opts()` / `ipv6_push_exthdr()`: - Push size comes from `ipv6_optlen(opt->dst1opt)` (based on the pointed-to header). (lines 1179-1185 and 1206-1211) 1. `opt_flen` is a 16-bit accumulator: - `include/net/ipv6.h:298` defines `__u16 opt_flen; /* after fragment hdr */`. 2. `ip6_datagram_send_ctl()` accepts *repeated* `IPV6_DSTOPTS` cmsgs and increments `opt_flen` each time: - In `net/ipv6/datagram.c:909-933`, for `IPV6_DSTOPTS`: - It computes `len = ((hdr->hdrlen + 1) << 3);` - It checks `CAP_NET_RAW` using `ns_capable(net->user_ns, CAP_NET_RAW)`. (line 922) - Then it does: - `opt->opt_flen += len;` (line 927) - `opt->dst1opt = hdr;` (line 928) There is no duplicate rejection here (unlike the legacy `IPV6_2292DSTOPTS` path which rejects duplicates at `net/ipv6/datagram.c:901-904`). If enough large `IPV6_DSTOPTS` cmsgs are provided, `opt_flen` wraps while `dst1opt` still points to a large (2048-byte) destination-options header. In the attached PoC (`poc.c`): - 32 cmsgs with `hdrlen=255` => `len = (255+1)*8 = 2048` - 1 cmsg with `hdrlen=0` => `len = 8` - Total increment: `32*2048 + 8 = 65544`, so `(__u16)opt_flen == 8` - The last cmsg is 2048 bytes, so `dst1opt` points to a 2048-byte header. 3. The transmit path sizes headers using the wrapped `opt_flen`:- In `net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:1463-1465`: - `headersize = sizeof(struct ipv6hdr) + (opt ? opt->opt_flen + opt->opt_nflen : 0) + ...;` With wrapped `opt_flen`, `headersize`/headroom decisions underestimate what will be pushed later. 4. When building the final skb, the actual push length comes from `dst1opt` and is not limited by wrapped `opt_flen`: - In `net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:1930-1934`: - `if (opt->opt_flen) proto = ipv6_push_frag_opts(skb, opt, proto);` - In `net/ipv6/exthdrs.c:1206-1211`, `ipv6_push_frag_opts()` pushes `dst1opt` via `ipv6_push_exthdr()`. - In `net/ipv6/exthdrs.c:1179-1184`, `ipv6_push_exthdr()` does: - `skb_push(skb, ipv6_optlen(opt));` - `memcpy(h, opt, ipv6_optlen(opt));` With insufficient headroom, `skb_push()` underflows and triggers `skb_under_panic()` -> `BUG()`: - `net/core/skbuff.c:2669-2675` (`skb_push()` calls `skb_under_panic()`) - `net/core/skbuff.c:207-214` (`skb_panic()` ends in `BUG()`) - The `IPV6_DSTOPTS` cmsg path requires `CAP_NET_RAW` in the target netns user namespace (`ns_capable(net->user_ns, CAP_NET_RAW)`). - Root (or any task with `CAP_NET_RAW`) can trigger this without user namespaces. - An unprivileged `uid=1000` user can trigger this if unprivileged user namespaces are enabled and it can create a userns+netns to obtain namespaced `CAP_NET_RAW` (the attached PoC does this). - Local denial of service: kernel BUG/panic (system crash). ----truncated---

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:scsi: ibmvfc: Fix OOB access in ibmvfc_discover_targets_done()A malicious or compromised VIO server can return a num_written value in thediscover targets MAD response that exceeds max_targets. This value isstored directly in vhost->num_targets without validation, and is then usedas the loop bound in ibmvfc_alloc_targets() to index into disc_buf[], whichis only allocated for max_targets entries. Indices at or beyond max_targetsaccess kernel memory outside the DMA-coherent allocation. Theout-of-bounds data is subsequently embedded in Implicit Logout and PLOGIMADs that are sent back to the VIO server, leaking kernel memory.Fix by clamping num_written to max_targets before storing it.

CVE-2026-23180 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.3

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:dpaa2-switch: add bounds check for if_id in IRQ handlerThe IRQ handler extracts if_id from the upper 16 bits of the hardwarestatus register and uses it to index into ethsw->ports[] withoutvalidation. Since if_id can be any 16-bit value (0-65535) but the portsarray is only allocated with sw_attr.num_ifs elements, this can lead toan out-of-bounds read potentially.Add a bounds check before accessing the array, consistent with theexisting validation in dpaa2_switch_rx().

CVE-2026-23206 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.3

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:dpaa2-switch: prevent ZERO_SIZE_PTR dereference when num_ifs is zeroThe driver allocates arrays for ports, FDBs, and filter blocks usingkcalloc() with ethsw->sw_attr.num_ifs as the element count. When thedevice reports zero interfaces (either due to hardware configurationor firmware issues), kcalloc(0, ...) returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR (0x10)instead of NULL.Later in dpaa2_switch_probe(), the NAPI initialization unconditionallyaccesses ethsw->ports[0]->netdev, which attempts to dereferenceZERO_SIZE_PTR (address 0x10), resulting in a kernel panic.Add a check to ensure num_ifs is greater than zero after retrievingdevice attributes. This prevents the zero-sized allocations andsubsequent invalid pointer dereference.

CVE-2026-23361 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.1

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:PCI: dwc: ep: Flush MSI-X write before unmapping its ATU entryEndpoint drivers use dw_pcie_ep_raise_msix_irq() to raise an MSI-Xinterrupt to the host using a writel(), which generates a PCI posted writetransaction. There's no completion for posted writes, so the writel() mayreturn before the PCI write completes. dw_pcie_ep_raise_msix_irq() alsounmaps the outbound ATU entry used for the PCI write, so the write raceswith the unmap.If the PCI write loses the race with the ATU unmap, the write may corrupthost memory or cause IOMMU errors, e.g., these when running fio with alarger queue depth against nvmet-pci-epf: arm-smmu-v3 fc900000.iommu: 0x0000010000000010 arm-smmu-v3 fc900000.iommu: 0x0000020000000000 arm-smmu-v3 fc900000.iommu: 0x000000090000f040 arm-smmu-v3 fc900000.iommu: 0x0000000000000000 arm-smmu-v3 fc900000.iommu: event: F_TRANSLATION client: 0000:01:00.0 sid: 0x100 ssid: 0x0 iova: 0x90000f040 ipa: 0x0 arm-smmu-v3 fc900000.iommu: unpriv data write s1 "Input address caused fault" stag: 0x0Flush the write by performing a readl() of the same address to ensure thatthe write has reached the destination before the ATU entry is unmapped.The same problem was solved for dw_pcie_ep_raise_msi_irq() in commit8719c64e76bf ("PCI: dwc: ep: Cache MSI outbound iATU mapping"), but thereit was solved by dedicating an outbound iATU only for MSI. We can't do thesame for MSI-X because each vector can have a different msg_addr and themsg_addr may be changed while the vector is masked.[bhelgaas: commit log]

CVE-2025-38549 Severity: Low CVSS3 score: 3.3

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:efivarfs: Fix memory leak of efivarfs_fs_info in fs_context error pathsWhen processing mount options, efivarfs allocates efivarfs_fs_info (sfi)early in fs_context initialization. However, sfi is associated with thesuperblock and typically freed when the superblock is destroyed. If thefs_context is released (final put) before fill_super is called-such ason error paths or during reconfiguration-the sfi structure would leak,as ownership never transfers to the superblock.Implement the .free callback in efivarfs_context_ops to ensure anyallocated sfi is properly freed if the fs_context is torn down beforefill_super, preventing this memory leak.

But there are cases where we could avoid revalidation.Consider:1 input -> j2 -> j32 input -> j2 -> j33 input -> j1 -> j2 -> j3Then the second rule does not need to revalidate j2, and, by extension j3,because this was already checked during validation of the first rule.We need to validate it only for rule 3.This is needed because chain loop detection also ensures we do not exceedthe jump stack: Just because we know that j2 is cycle free, its last jumpmight now exceed the allowed stack size. We also need to update allreachable chains with the new largest observed call depth.Care has to be taken to revalidate even if the chain depth won't be anissue: chain validation also ensures that expressions are not called frominvalid base chains. For example, the masquerade expression can only becalled from NAT postrouting base chains.Therefore we also need to keep record of the base chain context (type,hooknum) and revalidate if the chain becomes reachable from a differenthook location.

Description: A vulnerability was found in libxml2 up to 2.14.5. It has been declared as problematic. This vulnerability affects the function xmlParseSGMLCatalog of the component xmlcatalog. The manipulation leads to uncontrolled recursion. Attacking locally is a requirement. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The real existence of this vulnerability is still doubted at the moment. The code maintainer explains, that "[t]he issue can only be triggered with untrusted SGML catalogs and it makes absolutely no sense to use untrusted catalogs. I also doubt that anyone is still using SGML catalogs at all."

CVE-2026-23058 Severity: Low CVSS3 score: 3.3

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:can: ems_usb: ems_usb_read_bulk_callback(): fix URB memory leakFix similar memory leak as in commit 7352e1d5932a ("can: gs_usb:gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback(): fix URB memory leak").In ems_usb_open(), the URBs for USB-in transfers are allocated, added tothe dev->rx_submitted anchor and submitted. In the complete callbackems_usb_read_bulk_callback(), the URBs are processed and resubmitted. Inems_usb_close() the URBs are freed by callingusb_kill_anchored_urbs(&dev->rx_submitted).However, this does not take into account that the USB framework unanchorsthe URB before the complete function is called. This means that once anin-URB has been completed, it is no longer anchored and is ultimately notreleased in ems_usb_close().Fix the memory leak by anchoring the URB in theems_usb_read_bulk_callback() to the dev->rx_submitted anchor.

CVE-2026-23258 Severity: Low CVSS3 score: 3.3

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: liquidio: Initialize netdev pointer before queue setupIn setup_nic_devices(), the netdev is allocated using alloc_etherdev_mq().However, the pointer to this structure is stored in oct->props[i].netdevonly after the calls to netif_set_real_num_rx_queues() andnetif_set_real_num_tx_queues().If either of these functions fails, setup_nic_devices() returns an errorwithout freeing the allocated netdev. Since oct->props[i].netdev is stillNULL at this point, the cleanup function liquidio_destroy_nic_device()will fail to find and free the netdev, resulting in a memory leak.Fix this by initializing oct->props[i].netdev before calling the queuesetup functions. This ensures that the netdev is properly accessible forcleanup in case of errors.Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tooland code review.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:dmaengine: qcom: gpi: Fix memory leak in gpi_peripheral_config()Fix a memory leak in gpi_peripheral_config() where the original memorypointed to by gchan->config could be lost if krealloc() fails.The issue occurs when:1. gchan->config points to previously allocated memory2. krealloc() fails and returns NULL3. The function directly assigns NULL to gchan->config, losing the reference to the original memory4. The original memory becomes unreachable and cannot be freedFix this by using a temporary variable to hold the krealloc() resultand only updating gchan->config when the allocation succeeds.Found via static analysis and code review.

CVE-2025-39737 Severity: Low CVSS3 score: 2.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:mm/kmemleak: avoid soft lockup in __kmemleak_do_cleanup()A soft lockup warning was observed on a relative small system x86-64system with 16 GB of memory when running a debug kernel with kmemleakenabled. watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#8 stuck for 33s! [kworker/8:1:134]The test system was running a workload with hot unplug happening inparallel. Then kemleak decided to disable itself due to its inability toallocate more kmemleak objects. The debug kernel has itsCONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK_MEM_POOL_SIZE set to 40,000.The soft lockup happened in kmemleak_do_cleanup() when the existingkmemleak objects were being removed and deleted one-by-one in a loop via aworkqueue. In this particular case, there are at least 40,000 objectsthat need to be processed and given the slowness of a debug kernel and thefact that a raw_spinlock has to be acquired and released in__delete_object(), it could take a while to properly handle all theseobjects.As kmemleak has been disabled in this case, the object removal anddeletion process can be further optimized as locking isn't really needed. However, it is probably not worth the effort to optimize for such an edgecase that should rarely happen. So the simple solution is to callcond_resched() at periodic interval in the iteration loop to avoid softlockup.
