CVE-2026-31709 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 8.8

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:smb: client: validate the whole DACL before rewriting it in cifsaclbuild_sec_desc() and id_mode_to_cifs_acl() derive a DACL pointer from aserver-supplied dacloffset and then use the incoming ACL to rebuild thechmod/chown security descriptor.The original fix only checked that the struct smb_acl header fits beforereading dacl_ptr->size or dacl_ptr->num_aces. That avoids the immediateheader-field OOB read, but the rewrite helpers still walk ACEs based onpdacl->num_aces with no structural validation of the incoming DACL body.A malicious server can return a truncated DACL that still contains aheader, claims one or more ACEs, and then drivereplace_sids_and_copy_aces() or set_chmod_dacl() past the validatedextent while they compare or copy attacker-controlled ACEs.Factor the DACL structural checks into validate_dacl(), extend them tovalidate each ACE against the DACL bounds, and use the shared validatorbefore the chmod/chown rebuild paths. parse_dacl() reuses the samevalidator so the read-side parser and write-side rewrite paths agree onwhat constitutes a well-formed incoming DACL.

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-2026-31788 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 8.2

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:xen/privcmd: restrict usage in unprivileged domUThe Xen privcmd driver allows to issue arbitrary hypercalls fromuser space processes. This is normally no problem, as access isusually limited to root and the hypervisor will deny any hypercallsaffecting other domains.In case the guest is booted using secure boot, however, the privcmddriver would be enabling a root user process to modify e.g. kernelmemory contents, thus breaking the secure boot feature.The only known case where an unprivileged domU is really needing touse the privcmd driver is the case when it is acting as the devicemodel for another guest. In this case all hypercalls issued via theprivcmd driver will target that other guest.Fortunately the privcmd driver can already be locked down to allowonly hypercalls targeting a specific domain, but this mode can beactivated from user land only today.The target domain can be obtained from Xenstore, so when not runningin dom0 restrict the privcmd driver to that target domain from thebeginning, resolving the potential problem of breaking secure boot.This is XSA-482---V2:- defer reading from Xenstore if Xenstore isn't ready yet (Jan Beulich)- wait in open() if target domain isn't known yet- issue message in case no target domain found (Jan Beulich)

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.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:netfilter: xt_tcpmss: check remaining length before reading optlenQuoting reporter: In net/netfilter/xt_tcpmss.c (lines 53-68), the TCP option parser reads op[i+1] directly without validating the remaining option length. If the last byte of the option field is not EOL/NOP (0/1), the code attempts to index op[i+1]. In the case where i + 1 == optlen, this causes an out-of-bounds read, accessing memory past the optlen boundary (either reading beyond the stack buffer _opt or the following payload).

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-2026-6100 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.

At this point, all m2m operationsare done (v4l2_m2m_ctx_release() has returned), and we need to ensurethe workqueue is synchronized before removing ctx from the list andfreeing it.Note: The open error path does NOT need cancel_work_sync() becauseINIT_WORK() only initializes the work structure - it does not scheduleit. Work is only scheduled later during device_run() operations.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ptrace: slightly saner 'get_dumpable()' logicThe 'dumpability' of a task is fundamentally about the memory image ofthe task - the concept comes from whether it can core dump or not - andmakes no sense when you don't have an associated mm.And almost all users do in fact use it only for the case where the taskhas a mm pointer.But we have one odd special case: ptrace_may_access() uses 'dumpable' tocheck various other things entirely independently of the MM (typicallyexplicitly using flags like PTRACE_MODE_READ_FSCREDS). Including forthreads that no longer have a VM (and maybe never did, like most kernelthreads).It's not what this flag was designed for, but it is what it is.The ptrace code does check that the uid/gid matches, so you do have tobe uid-0 to see kernel thread details, but this means that thetraditional "drop capabilities" model doesn't make any difference forthis all.Make it all make a *bit* more sense by saying that if you don't have aMM pointer, we'll use a cached "last dumpability" flag if the threadever had a MM (it will be zero for kernel threads since it is neverset), and require a proper CAP_SYS_PTRACE capability to override.

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-2026-31649 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: stmmac: fix integer underflow in chain modeThe jumbo_frm() chain-mode implementation unconditionally computes len = nopaged_len - bmax;where nopaged_len = skb_headlen(skb) (linear bytes only) and bmax isBUF_SIZE_8KiB or BUF_SIZE_2KiB. However, the caller stmmac_xmit()decides to invoke jumbo_frm() based on skb->len (total length includingpage fragments): is_jumbo = stmmac_is_jumbo_frm(priv, skb->len, enh_desc);When a packet has a small linear portion (nopaged_len <= bmax) but alarge total length due to page fragments (skb->len > bmax), thesubtraction wraps as an unsigned integer, producing a huge len value(~0xFFFFxxxx). This causes the while (len != 0) loop to executehundreds of thousands of iterations, passing skb->data + bmax * ipointers far beyond the skb buffer to dma_map_single(). On IOMMU-lessSoCs (the typical deployment for stmmac), this maps arbitrary kernelmemory to the DMA engine, constituting a kernel memory disclosure andpotential memory corruption from hardware.Fix this by introducing a buf_len local variable clamped tomin(nopaged_len, bmax). Computing len = nopaged_len - buf_len is thenalways safe: it is zero when the linear portion fits within a singledescriptor, causing the while (len != 0) loop to be skipped naturally,and the fragment loop in stmmac_xmit() handles page fragments afterward.

CVE-2026-33846 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.5

Description: A heap buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the DTLS handshake fragment reassembly logic of GnuTLS. The issue arises in merge_handshake_packet() where incoming handshake fragments are matched and merged based solely on handshake type, without validating that the message_length field remains consistent across all fragments of the same logical message. An attacker can exploit this by sending crafted DTLS fragments with conflicting message_length values, causing the implementation to allocate a buffer based on a smaller initial fragment and subsequently write beyond its bounds using larger, inconsistent fragments. Because the merge operation does not enforce proper bounds checking against the allocated buffer size, this results in an out-of-bounds write on the heap. The vulnerability is remotely exploitable without authentication via the DTLS handshake path and can lead to application crashes or potential memory corruption.

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. Prior to 4.1.4 and 3.0.5, decrypting a JSON Web Encryption (JWE) object will panic if the alg field indicates a key wrapping algorithm (one ending in KW, with the exception of A128GCMKW, A192GCMKW, and A256GCMKW) and the encrypted_key field is empty. The panic happens when cipher.KeyUnwrap() in key_wrap.go attempts to allocate a slice with a zero or negative length based on the length of the encrypted_key. This code path is reachable from ParseEncrypted() / ParseEncryptedJSON() / ParseEncryptedCompact() followed by Decrypt() on the resulting object. Note that the parse functions take a list of accepted key algorithms. If the accepted key algorithms do not include any key wrapping algorithms, parsing will fail and the application will be unaffected. This panic is also reachable by calling cipher.KeyUnwrap() directly with any ciphertext parameter less than 16 bytes long, but calling this function directly is less common. Panics can lead to denial of service. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.1.4 and 3.0.5.

CVE-2026-34743 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.4

Description: XZ Utils provide a general-purpose data-compression library plus command-line tools. Prior to version 5.8.3, if lzma_index_decoder() was used to decode an Index that contained no Records, the resulting lzma_index was left in a state where where a subsequent lzma_index_append() would allocate too little memory, and a buffer overflow would occur. This issue has been patched in version 5.8.3.

CVE-2026-31613 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.1

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:smb: client: fix OOB reads parsing symlink error responseWhen a CREATE returns STATUS_STOPPED_ON_SYMLINK, smb2_check_message()returns success without any length validation, leaving the symlinkparsers as the only defense against an untrusted server.symlink_data() walks SMB 3.1.1 error contexts with the loop test "p ErrorId at offset 4 and p->ErrorDataLength at offset0. When the server-controlled ErrorDataLength advances p to within 1-7bytes of end, the next iteration will read past it. When the matchingcontext is found, sym->SymLinkErrorTag is read at offset 4 fromp->ErrorContextData with no check that the symlink header itself fits.smb2_parse_symlink_response() then bounds-checks the substitute nameusing SMB2_SYMLINK_STRUCT_SIZE as the offset of PathBuffer fromiov_base. That value is computed as sizeof(smb2_err_rsp) +sizeof(smb2_symlink_err_rsp), which is correct only whenErrorContextCount == 0.With at least one error context the symlink data sits 8 bytes deeper,and each skipped non-matching context shifts it further by 8 +ALIGN(ErrorDataLength, 8). The check is too short, allowing thesubstitute name read to run past iov_len. The out-of-bound heap bytesare UTF-16-decoded into the symlink target and returned to userspace viareadlink(2).Fix this all up by making the loops test require the full context headerto fit, rejecting sym if its header runs past end, and bound thesubstitute name against the actual position of sym->PathBuffer ratherthan a fixed offset.Because sub_offs and sub_len are 16bits, the pointer math will notoverflow here with the new greater-than.

CVE-2026-31614 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.1

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:smb: client: fix off-by-8 bounds check in check_wsl_eas()The bounds check uses (u8 *)ea + nlen + 1 + vlen as the end of the EAname and value, but ea_data sits at offset sizeof(structsmb2_file_full_ea_info) = 8 from ea, not at offset 0. The strncmp()later reads ea->ea_data[0..nlen-1] and the value bytes follow atea_data[nlen+1..nlen+vlen], so the actual end is ea->ea_data + nlen + 1+ vlen. Isn't pointer math fun?The earlier check (u8 *)ea > end - sizeof(*ea) only guarantees the8-byte header is in bounds, but since the last EA is placed within 8bytes of the end of the response, the name and value bytes are read pastthe end of iov.Fix this mess all up by using ea->ea_data as the base for the boundscheck.An "untrusted" server can use this to leak up to 8 bytes of kernel heapinto the EA name comparison and influence which WSL xattr the data isinterpreted as.

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.

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.

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

CVE-2026-23458 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.0

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.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: bonding: fix use-after-free in bond_xmit_broadcast()bond_xmit_broadcast() reuses the original skb for the last slave(determined by bond_is_last_slave()) and clones it for others.Concurrent slave enslave/release can mutate the slave list duringRCU-protected iteration, changing which slave is "last" mid-loop.This causes the original skb to be double-consumed (double-freed).Replace the racy bond_is_last_slave() check with a simple indexcomparison (i + 1 == slaves_count) against the pre-snapshot slavecount taken via READ_ONCE() before the loop. This preserves thezero-copy optimization for the last slave while making the "last"determination stable against concurrent list mutations.The UAF can trigger the following crash:==================================================================BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in skb_cloneRead of size 8 at addr ffff888100ef8d40 by task exploit/147CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 147 Comm: exploit Not tainted 7.0.0-rc3+ #4 PREEMPTLAZYCall Trace: dump_stack_lvl (lib/dump_stack.c:123) print_report (mm/kasan/report.c:379 mm/kasan/report.c:482) kasan_report (mm/kasan/report.c:597) skb_clone (include/linux/skbuff.h:1724 include/linux/skbuff.h:1792 include/linux/skbuff.h:3396 net/core/skbuff.c:2108) bond_xmit_broadcast (drivers/net/bonding/bond_main.c:5334) bond_start_xmit (drivers/net/bonding/bond_main.c:5567 drivers/net/bonding/bond_main.c:5593) dev_hard_start_xmit (include/linux/netdevice.h:5325 include/linux/netdevice.h:5334 net/core/dev.c:3871 net/core/dev.c:3887) __dev_queue_xmit (include/linux/netdevice.h:3601 net/core/dev.c:4838) ip6_finish_output2 (include/net/neighbour.h:540 include/net/neighbour.h:554 net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:136) ip6_finish_output (net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:208 net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:219) ip6_output (net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:250) ip6_send_skb (net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:1985) udp_v6_send_skb (net/ipv6/udp.c:1442) udpv6_sendmsg (net/ipv6/udp.c:1733) __sys_sendto (net/socket.c:730 net/socket.c:742 net/socket.c:2206) __x64_sys_sendto (net/socket.c:2209) do_syscall_64 (arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:63 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94) entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe (arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:130) Allocated by task 147:Freed by task 147:The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff888100ef8c80 which belongs to the cache skbuff_head_cache of size 224The buggy address is located 192 bytes inside of freed 224-byte region [ffff888100ef8c80, ffff888100ef8d60)Memory state around the buggy address: ffff888100ef8c00: fb fb fb fb fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc ffff888100ef8c80: fa fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb>ffff888100ef8d00: fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fc fc fc fc ^ ffff888100ef8d80: fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fc fa fb fb fb fb fb fb fb ffff888100ef8e00: fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb fb==================================================================

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: fix fanout UAF in packet_release() via NETDEV_UP race`packet_release()` has a race window where `NETDEV_UP` can re-register asocket into a fanout group's `arr[]` array. The re-registration is notcleaned up by `fanout_release()`, leaving a dangling pointer in the fanoutarray.`packet_release()` does NOT zero `po->num` in its `bind_lock` section.After releasing `bind_lock`, `po->num` is still non-zero and `po->ifindex`still matches the bound device. A concurrent `packet_notifier(NETDEV_UP)`that already found the socket in `sklist` can re-register the hook.For fanout sockets, this re-registration calls `__fanout_link(sk, po)`which adds the socket back into `f->arr[]` and increments `f->num_members`,but does NOT increment `f->sk_ref`.The fix sets `po->num` to zero in `packet_release` while `bind_lock` isheld to prevent NETDEV_UP from linking, preventing the race window.This bug was found following an additional audit with Claude Code basedon CVE-2025-38617.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:perf: Make sure to use pmu_ctx->pmu for groupsOliver reported that x86_pmu_del() ended up doing an out-of-bound memory accesswhen group_sched_in() fails and needs to roll back.This *should* be handled by the transaction callbacks, but he found that whenthe group leader is a software event, the transaction handlers of the wrong PMUare used. Despite the move_group case in perf_event_open() and group_sched_in()using pmu_ctx->pmu.Turns out, inherit uses event->pmu to clone the events, effectively undoing themove_group case for all inherited contexts. Fix this by also making inherit usepmu_ctx->pmu, ensuring all inherited counters end up in the same pmu context.Similarly, __perf_event_read() should use equally use pmu_ctx->pmu for thegroup case.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net/tls: fix use-after-free in -EBUSY error path of tls_do_encryptionThe -EBUSY handling in tls_do_encryption(), introduced by commit859054147318 ("net: tls: handle backlogging of crypto requests"), hasa use-after-free due to double cleanup of encrypt_pending and thescatterlist entry.When crypto_aead_encrypt() returns -EBUSY, the request is enqueued tothe cryptd backlog and the async callback tls_encrypt_done() will beinvoked upon completion. That callback unconditionally restores thescatterlist entry (sge->offset, sge->length) and decrementsctx->encrypt_pending. However, if tls_encrypt_async_wait() returns anerror, the synchronous error path in tls_do_encryption() performs thesame cleanup again, double-decrementing encrypt_pending anddouble-restoring the scatterlist.The double-decrement corrupts the encrypt_pending sentinel (initializedto 1), making tls_encrypt_async_wait() permanently skip the wait forpending async callbacks. A subsequent sendmsg can then free thetls_rec via bpf_exec_tx_verdict() while a cryptd callback is stillpending, resulting in a use-after-free when the callback fires on thefreed record.Fix this by skipping the synchronous cleanup when the -EBUSY asyncwait returns an error, since the callback has already handledencrypt_pending and sge restoration.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:KVM: x86: Use scratch field in MMIO fragment to hold small write valuesWhen exiting to userspace to service an emulated MMIO write, copy theto-be-written value to a scratch field in the MMIO fragment if the sizeof the data payload is 8 bytes or less, i.e. can fit in a single chunk,instead of pointing the fragment directly at the source value.This fixes a class of use-after-free bugs that occur when the emulatorinitiates a write using an on-stack, local variable as the source, thewrite splits a page boundary, *and* both pages are MMIO pages. BecauseKVM's ABI only allows for physically contiguous MMIO requests, accessesthat split MMIO pages are separated into two fragments, and are sent touserspace one at a time. When KVM attempts to complete userspace MMIO inresponse to KVM_RUN after the first fragment, KVM will detect the secondfragment and generate a second userspace exit, and reference the on-stackvariable.The issue is most visible if the second KVM_RUN is performed by a separatetask, in which case the stack of the initiating task can show up as trulyfreed data. ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in complete_emulated_mmio+0x305/0x420 Read of size 1 at addr ffff888009c378d1 by task syz-executor417/984 CPU: 1 PID: 984 Comm: syz-executor417 Not tainted 5.10.0-182.0.0.95.h2627.eulerosv2r13.x86_64 #3 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.15.0-0-g2dd4b9b3f840-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack+0xbe/0xfd print_address_description.constprop.0+0x19/0x170 __kasan_report.cold+0x6c/0x84 kasan_report+0x3a/0x50 check_memory_region+0xfd/0x1f0 memcpy+0x20/0x60 complete_emulated_mmio+0x305/0x420 kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_run+0x63f/0x6d0 kvm_vcpu_ioctl+0x413/0xb20 __se_sys_ioctl+0x111/0x160 do_syscall_64+0x30/0x40 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x67/0xd1 RIP: 0033:0x42477d Code: <48> 3d 01 f0 ff ff 73 01 c3 48 c7 c1 b0 ff ff ff f7 d8 64 89 01 48 RSP: 002b:00007faa8e6890e8 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 0000000000000010 RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 00000000004d7338 RCX: 000000000042477d RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 000000000000ae80 RDI: 0000000000000005 RBP: 00000000004d7330 R08: 00007fff28d546df R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 00000000004d733c R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 000000000040a200 R15: 00007fff28d54720 The buggy address belongs to the page: page:0000000029f6a428 refcount:0 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x9c37 flags: 0xfffffc0000000(node=0|zone=1|lastcpupid=0x1fffff) raw: 000fffffc0000000 0000000000000000 ffffea0000270dc8 0000000000000000 raw: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00000000ffffffff 0000000000000000 page dumped because: kasan: bad access detected Memory state around the buggy address: ffff888009c37780: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ffff888009c37800: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff >ffff888009c37880: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ^ ffff888009c37900: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ffff888009c37980: ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ==================================================================The bug can also be reproduced with a targeted KVM-Unit-Test by hackingKVM to fill a large on-stack variable in complete_emulated_mmio(), i.e. byoverwrite the data value with garbage.Limit the use of the scratch fields to 8-byte or smaller accesses, and tojust writes, as larger accesses and reads are not affected thanks toimplementation details in the emulator, but add a sanity check to ensurethose details don't change in the future.

CVE-2026-31669 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.0

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:mptcp: fix slab-use-after-free in __inet_lookup_establishedThe ehash table lookups are lockless and rely onSLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU to guarantee socket memory stabilityduring RCU read-side critical sections. Both tcp_prot andtcpv6_prot have their slab caches created with this flagvia proto_register().However, MPTCP's mptcp_subflow_init() copies tcpv6_prot intotcpv6_prot_override during inet_init() (fs_initcall, level 5),before inet6_init() (module_init/device_initcall, level 6) hascalled proto_register(&tcpv6_prot). At that point,tcpv6_prot.slab is still NULL, so tcpv6_prot_override.slabremains NULL permanently.This causes MPTCP v6 subflow child sockets to be allocated viakmalloc (falling into kmalloc-4k) instead of the TCPv6 slabcache. The kmalloc-4k cache lacks SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU, sowhen these sockets are freed without SOCK_RCU_FREE (which iscleared for child sockets by design), the memory can beimmediately reused. Concurrent ehash lookups underrcu_read_lock can then access freed memory, triggering aslab-use-after-free in __inet_lookup_established.Fix this by splitting the IPv6-specific initialization out ofmptcp_subflow_init() into a new mptcp_subflow_v6_init(), calledfrom mptcp_proto_v6_init() before protocol registration. Thisensures tcpv6_prot_override.slab correctly inherits theSLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU slab cache.

CVE-2026-31700 Severity: Important CVSS3 score: 7.0

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net/packet: fix TOCTOU race on mmap'd vnet_hdr in tpacket_snd()In tpacket_snd(), when PACKET_VNET_HDR is enabled, vnet_hdr pointsdirectly into the mmap'd TX ring buffer shared with userspace. Thekernel validates the header via __packet_snd_vnet_parse() but thenre-reads all fields later in virtio_net_hdr_to_skb(). A concurrentuserspace thread can modify the vnet_hdr fields between validationand use, bypassing all safety checks.The non-TPACKET path (packet_snd()) already correctly copies vnet_hdrto a stack-local variable. All other vnet_hdr consumers in the kernel(tun.c, tap.c, virtio_net.c) also use stack copies. The TPACKET TXpath is the only caller of virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() that reads directlyfrom user-controlled shared memory.Fix this by copying vnet_hdr from the mmap'd ring buffer to astack-local variable before validation and use, consistent with theapproach used in packet_snd() and all other callers.

When the socket is freedvia RCU while another thread is still using it, a use-after-freeoccurs in sock_def_readable() when accessing the socket's wait queue.The root cause is that lec_atm_close() clears priv->lecd withoutany synchronization, while callers dereference priv->lecd withoutany protection against concurrent teardown.Fix this by converting priv->lecd to an RCU-protected pointer:- Mark priv->lecd as __rcu in lec.h- Use rcu_assign_pointer() in lec_atm_close() and lecd_attach() for safe pointer assignment- Use rcu_access_pointer() for NULL checks that do not dereference the pointer in lec_start_xmit(), lec_push(), send_to_lecd() and lecd_attach()- Use rcu_read_lock/rcu_dereference/rcu_read_unlock in send_to_lecd(), lec_handle_bridge() and lec_atm_send() to safely access lecd- Use rcu_assign_pointer() followed by synchronize_rcu() in lec_atm_close() to ensure all readers have completed before proceeding. This is safe since lec_atm_close() is called from vcc_release() which holds lock_sock(), a sleeping lock.- Remove the manual sk_receive_queue drain from lec_atm_close() since vcc_destroy_socket() already drains it after lec_atm_close() returns.v2: Switch from spinlock + sock_hold/put approach to RCU to properly fix the race. The v1 spinlock approach had two issues pointed out by Eric Dumazet: 1. priv->lecd was still accessed directly after releasing the lock instead of using a local copy. 2. The spinlock did not prevent packets being queued after lec_atm_close() drains sk_receive_queue since timer and workqueue paths bypass netif_stop_queue().Note: Syzbot patch testing was attempted but the test VM terminated unexpectedly with "Connection to localhost closed by remote host", likely due to a QEMU AHCI emulation issue unrelated to this fix. Compile testing with "make W=1 net/atm/lec.o" passes cleanly.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:xfs: remove xfs_attr_leaf_hasnameThe calling convention of xfs_attr_leaf_hasname() is problematic, becauseit returns a NULL buffer when xfs_attr3_leaf_read fails, a valid bufferwhen xfs_attr3_leaf_lookup_int returns -ENOATTR or -EEXIST, and anon-NULL buffer pointer for an already released buffer whenxfs_attr3_leaf_lookup_int fails with other error values.Fix this by simply open coding xfs_attr_leaf_hasname in the callers, sothat the buffer release code is done by each caller ofxfs_attr3_leaf_read.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:usb: gadget: f_ncm: Fix net_device lifecycle with device_moveThe network device outlived its parent gadget device duringdisconnection, resulting in dangling sysfs links and null pointerdereference problems.A prior attempt to solve this by removing SET_NETDEV_DEV entirely [1]was reverted due to power management ordering concerns and a NO-CARRIERregression.A subsequent attempt to defer net_device allocation to bind [2] broke1:1 mapping between function instance and network device, making itimpossible for configfs to report the resolved interface name. Thisresults in a regression where the DHCP server fails on pmOS.Use device_move to reparent the net_device between the gadget device and/sys/devices/virtual/ across bind/unbind cycles. This preserves thenetwork interface across USB reconnection, allowing the DHCP server toretain their binding.Introduce gether_attach_gadget()/gether_detach_gadget() helpers and use__free(detach_gadget) macro to undo attachment on bind failure.

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-2026-22980 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.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ocfs2: fix use-after-free in ocfs2_fault() when VM_FAULT_RETRYfilemap_fault() may drop the mmap_lock before returning VM_FAULT_RETRY,as documented in mm/filemap.c: "If our return value has VM_FAULT_RETRY set, it's because the mmap_lock may be dropped before doing I/O or by lock_folio_maybe_drop_mmap()."When this happens, a concurrent munmap() can call remove_vma() and freethe vm_area_struct via RCU. The saved 'vma' pointer in ocfs2_fault() thenbecomes a dangling pointer, and the subsequent trace_ocfs2_fault() calldereferences it -- a use-after-free.Fix this by saving ip_blkno as a plain integer before callingfilemap_fault(), and removing vma from the trace event. Sinceip_blkno is copied by value before the lock can be dropped, itremains valid regardless of what happens to the vma or inodeafterward.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ocfs2: validate inline data i_size during inode readWhen reading an inode from disk, ocfs2_validate_inode_block() performsvarious sanity checks but does not validate the size of inline data. Ifthe filesystem is corrupted, an inode's i_size can exceed the actualinline data capacity (id_count).This causes ocfs2_dir_foreach_blk_id() to iterate beyond the inline databuffer, triggering a use-after-free when accessing directory entries fromfreed memory.In the syzbot report: - i_size was 1099511627576 bytes (~1TB) - Actual inline data capacity (id_count) is typically <256 bytes - A garbage rec_len (54648) caused ctx->pos to jump out of bounds - This triggered a UAF in ocfs2_check_dir_entry()Fix by adding a validation check in ocfs2_validate_inode_block() to ensureinodes with inline data have i_size <= id_count. This catches thecorruption early during inode read and prevents all downstream code fromoperating on invalid data.

CVE-2026-43359 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.6

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:btrfs: fix transaction abort on set received ioctl due to item overflowIf the set received ioctl fails due to an item overflow when attempting toadd the BTRFS_UUID_KEY_RECEIVED_SUBVOL we have to abort the transactionsince we did some metadata updates before.This means that if a user calls this ioctl with the same received UUIDfield for a lot of subvolumes, we will hit the overflow, trigger thetransaction abort and turn the filesystem into RO mode. A malicious usercould exploit this, and this ioctl does not even requires that a userhas admin privileges (CAP_SYS_ADMIN), only that he/she owns the subvolume.Fix this by doing an early check for item overflow before starting atransaction. This is also race safe because we are holding the subvol_semsemaphore in exclusive (write) mode.A test case for fstests will follow soon.

CVE-2026-45130 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.6

Description: Vim is an open source, command line text editor. Prior to version 9.2.0450, a heap buffer overflow exists in read_compound() in src/spellfile.c when loading a crafted spell file (.spl) with UTF-8 encoding active. An attacker-controlled length field in the spell file's compound section overflows a 32-bit signed integer multiplication, causing a small buffer to be allocated for a write loop that runs many iterations, overflowing the heap. Because the 'spelllang' option can be set from a modeline, a text file modeline can trigger spell file loading if a malicious .spl file has been planted on the runtimepath. This issue has been patched in version 9.2.0450.

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.

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.

CVE-2026-23319 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.4

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:bpf: Fix a UAF issue in bpf_trampoline_link_cgroup_shimThe root cause of this bug is that when 'bpf_link_put' reduces therefcount of 'shim_link->link.link' to zero, the resource is consideredreleased but may still be referenced via 'tr->progs_hlist' in'cgroup_shim_find'. 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:team: fix header_ops type confusion with non-Ethernet portsSimilar to commit 950803f72547 ("bonding: fix type confusion inbond_setup_by_slave()") team has the same class of header_ops typeconfusion.For non-Ethernet ports, team_setup_by_port() copies port_dev->header_opsdirectly. When the team device later calls dev_hard_header() ordev_parse_header(), these callbacks can run with the team net_deviceinstead of the real lower device, so netdev_priv(dev) is interpreted asthe wrong private type and can crash.The syzbot report shows a crash in bond_header_create(), but the rootcause is in team: the topology is gre -> bond -> team, and team callsthe inherited header_ops with its own net_device instead of the lowerdevice, so bond_header_create() receives a team device and interpretsnetdev_priv() as bonding private data, causing a type confusion crash.Fix this by introducing team header_ops wrappers for create/parse,selecting a team port under RCU, and calling the lower device callbackswith port->dev, so each callback always sees the correct net_devicecontext.Also pass the selected lower device to the lower parse callback, sorecursion is bounded in stacked non-Ethernet topologies and parsecallbacks always run with the correct device context.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:bpf: Fix undefined behavior in interpreter sdiv/smod for INT_MINThe BPF interpreter's signed 32-bit division and modulo handlers usethe kernel abs() macro on s32 operands. The abs() macro documentation(include/linux/math.h) explicitly states the result is undefined whenthe input is the type minimum. When DST contains S32_MIN (0x80000000),abs((s32)DST) triggers undefined behavior and returns S32_MIN unchangedon arm64/x86. This value is then sign-extended to u64 as0xFFFFFFFF80000000, causing do_div() to compute the wrong result.The verifier's abstract interpretation (scalar32_min_max_sdiv) computesthe mathematically correct result for range tracking, creating averifier/interpreter mismatch that can be exploited for out-of-boundsmap value access.Introduce abs_s32() which handles S32_MIN correctly by casting to u32before negating, avoiding signed overflow entirely. Replace all 8abs((s32)...) call sites in the interpreter's sdiv32/smod32 handlers.s32 is the only affected case -- the s64 division/modulo handlers donot use abs().

CVE-2026-31530 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.4

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:cxl/port: Fix use after free of parent_port in cxl_detach_ep()cxl_detach_ep() is called during bottom-up removal when all CXL memorydevices beneath a switch port have been removed. For each port in thehierarchy it locks both the port and its parent, removes the endpoint,and if the port is now empty, marks it dead and unregisters the portby calling delete_switch_port(). There are two places during this workwhere the parent_port may be used after freeing:First, a concurrent detach may have already processed a port by thetime a second worker finds it via bus_find_device(). Without pinningparent_port, it may already be freed when we discover port->dead andattempt to unlock the parent_port. In a production kernel that's asilent memory corruption, with lock debug, it looks like this:[]DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(__owner_task(owner) != get_current())[]WARNING: kernel/locking/mutex.c:949 at __mutex_unlock_slowpath+0x1ee/0x310[]Call Trace:[]mutex_unlock+0xd/0x20[]cxl_detach_ep+0x180/0x400 [cxl_core][]devm_action_release+0x10/0x20[]devres_release_all+0xa8/0xe0[]device_unbind_cleanup+0xd/0xa0[]really_probe+0x1a6/0x3e0Second, delete_switch_port() releases three devm actions registeredagainst parent_port. The last of those is unregister_port() and itcalls device_unregister() on the child port, which can cascade. Ifparent_port is now also empty the device core may unregister and freeit too. So by the time delete_switch_port() returns, parent_port maybe free, and the subsequent device_unlock(&parent_port->dev) operateson freed memory. The kernel log looks same as above, with a differentoffset in cxl_detach_ep().Both of these issues stem from the absence of a lifetime guaranteebetween a child port and its parent port.Establish a lifetime rule for ports: child ports hold a reference totheir parent device until release. Take the reference when the portis allocated and drop it when released. This ensures the parent isvalid for the full lifetime of the child and eliminates the use afterfree window in cxl_detach_ep().This is easily reproduced with a reload of cxl_acpi in QEMU with CXLdevices present.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:driver core: enforce device_lock for driver_match_device()Currently, driver_match_device() is called from three sites. One site(__device_attach_driver) holds device_lock(dev), but the other two(bind_store and __driver_attach) do not. This inconsistency means thatbus match() callbacks are not guaranteed to be called with the lockheld.Fix this by introducing driver_match_device_locked(), which guaranteesholding the device lock using a scoped guard. Replace the unlocked callsin bind_store() and __driver_attach() with this new helper. Also add alock assertion to driver_match_device() to enforce this guarantee.This consistency also fixes a known race condition. The driver_overrideimplementation relies on the device_lock, so the missing lock led to theuse-after-free (UAF) reported in Bugzilla for buses using this field.Stress testing the two newly locked paths for 24 hours withCONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING and CONFIG_LOCKDEP enabled showed no UAF recurrenceand no lockdep warnings.

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---

CVE-2026-23262 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.3

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.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:wifi: libertas: fix use-after-free in lbs_free_adapter()The lbs_free_adapter() function uses timer_delete() (non-synchronous)for both command_timer and tx_lockup_timer before the structure isfreed. 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. The command_timer has had thesame issue since the driver was first written.

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.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:x86-64: rename misleadingly named '__copy_user_nocache()' functionThis function was a masterclass in bad naming, for various historicalreasons.It claimed to be a non-cached user copy. It is literally _neither_ ofthose things. It's a specialty memory copy routine that usesnon-temporal stores for the destination (but not the source), and thatdoes exception handling for both source and destination accesses.Also note that while it works for unaligned targets, any unaligned parts(whether at beginning or end) will not use non-temporal stores, sinceonly words and quadwords can be non-temporal on x86.The exception handling means that it _can_ be used for user spaceaccesses, but not on its own - it needs all the normal "start user spaceaccess" logic around it.But typically the user space access would be the source, not thenon-temporal destination. That was the original intention of this,where the destination was some fragile persistent memory target thatneeded non-temporal stores in order to catch machine check exceptionssynchronously and deal with them gracefully.Thus that non-descriptive name: one use case was to copy from user spaceinto a non-cached kernel buffer. However, the existing users are a mixof that intended use-case, and a couple of random drivers that just didthis as a performance tweak.Some of those random drivers then actively misused the user copyingversion (with STAC/CLAC and all) to do kernel copies without ever evencaring about the exception handling, _just_ for the non-temporaldestination.Rename it as a first small step to actually make it halfway sane, andchange the prototype to be more normal: it doesn't take a user pointerunless the caller has done the proper conversion, and the argument sizeis the full size_t (it still won't actually copy more than 4GB in onego, but there's also no reason to silently truncate the size argument inthe caller).Finally, use this now sanely named function in the NTB code, whichmis-used a user copy version (with STAC/CLAC and all) of this interfacedespite it not actually being a user copy at all.

CVE-2026-43158 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.3

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:xfs: fix freemap adjustments when adding xattrs to leaf blocksxfs/592 and xfs/794 both trip this assertion in the leaf block freemapadjustment code after ~20 minutes of running on my test VMs: ASSERT(ichdr->firstused >= ichdr->count * sizeof(xfs_attr_leaf_entry_t) + xfs_attr3_leaf_hdr_size(leaf));Upon enabling quite a lot more debugging code, I narrowed this down tofsstress trying to set a local extended attribute with namelen=3 andvaluelen=71. This results in an entry size of 80 bytes.At the start of xfs_attr3_leaf_add_work, the freemap looks like this:i 0 base 448 size 0 rhs 448 count 46i 1 base 388 size 132 rhs 448 count 46i 2 base 2120 size 4 rhs 448 count 46firstused = 520where "rhs" is the first byte past the end of the leaf entry array.This is inconsistent -- the entries array ends at byte 448, butfreemap[1] says there's free space starting at byte 388!By the end of the function, the freemap is in worse shape:i 0 base 456 size 0 rhs 456 count 47i 1 base 388 size 52 rhs 456 count 47i 2 base 2120 size 4 rhs 456 count 47firstused = 440Important note: 388 is not aligned with the entries array element sizeof 8 bytes.Based on the incorrect freemap, the name area starts at byte 440, whichis below the end of the entries array! That's why the assertiontriggers and the filesystem shuts down.How did we end up here? First, recall from the previous patch that thefreemap array in an xattr leaf block is not intended to be acomprehensive map of all free space in the leaf block. In other words,it's perfectly legal to have a leaf block with: * 376 bytes in use by the entries array * freemap[0] has [base = 376, size = 8] * freemap[1] has [base = 388, size = 1500] * the space between 376 and 388 is free, but the freemap stopped tracking that some time agoIf we add one xattr, the entries array grows to 384 bytes, andfreemap[0] becomes [base = 384, size = 0]. So far, so good. But if weadd a second xattr, the entries array grows to 392 bytes, and freemap[0]gets pushed up to [base = 392, size = 0]. This is bad, becausefreemap[1] hasn't been updated, and now the entries array and the freespace claim the same space.The fix here is to adjust all freemap entries so that none of themcollide with the entries array. Note that this fix relies on commit2a2b5932db6758 ("xfs: fix attr leaf header freemap.size underflow") andthe previous patch that resets zero length freemap entries to havebase = 0.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:xfs: delete attr leaf freemap entries when emptyBack in commit 2a2b5932db6758 ("xfs: fix attr leaf header freemap.sizeunderflow"), Brian Foster observed that it's possible for a smallfreemap at the end of the end of the xattr entries array to experiencea size underflow when subtracting the space consumed by an expansion ofthe entries array. There are only three freemap entries, which meansthat it is not a complete index of all free space in the leaf block.This code can leave behind a zero-length freemap entry with a nonzerobase. Subsequent setxattr operations can increase the base up to thepoint that it overlaps with another freemap entry. This isn't in and ofitself a problem because the code in _leaf_add that finds free spaceignores any freemap entry with zero size.However, there's another bug in the freemap update code in _leaf_add,which is that it fails to update a freemap entry that begins midwaythrough the xattr entry that was just appended to the array. That canresult in the freemap containing two entries with the same base butdifferent sizes (0 for the "pushed-up" entry, nonzero for the entrythat's actually tracking free space). A subsequent _leaf_add can thenallocate xattr namevalue entries on top of the entries array, leading todata loss. But fixing that is for later.For now, eliminate the possibility of confusion by zeroing out the baseof any freemap entry that has zero size. Because the freemap is notintended to be a complete index of free space, a subsequent failure tofind any free space for a new xattr will trigger block compaction, whichregenerates the freemap.It looks like this bug has been in the codebase for quite a long time.

CVE-2026-43250 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.3

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:usb: chipidea: udc: fix DMA and SG cleanup in _ep_nuke()The ChipIdea UDC driver can encounter "not page aligned sg buffer"errors when a USB device is reconnected after being disconnectedduring an active transfer. This occurs because _ep_nuke() returnsrequests to the gadget layer without properly unmapping DMA buffersor cleaning up scatter-gather bounce buffers.Root cause:When a disconnect happens during a multi-segment DMA transfer, therequest's num_mapped_sgs field and sgt.sgl pointer remain set withstale values. The request is returned to the gadget driver with status-ESHUTDOWN but still has active DMA state. If the gadget driver reusesthis request on reconnect without reinitializing it, the stale DMAstate causes _hardware_enqueue() to skip DMA mapping (seeing non-zeronum_mapped_sgs) and attempt to use freed/invalid DMA addresses,leading to alignment errors and potential memory corruption.The normal completion path via _hardware_dequeue() properly callsusb_gadget_unmap_request_by_dev() and sglist_do_debounce() beforereturning the request. The _ep_nuke() path must do the same cleanupto ensure requests are returned in a clean, reusable state.Fix:Add DMA unmapping and bounce buffer cleanup to _ep_nuke() to mirrorthe cleanup sequence in _hardware_dequeue():- Call usb_gadget_unmap_request_by_dev() if num_mapped_sgs is set- Call sglist_do_debounce() with copy=false if bounce buffer existsThis ensures that when requests are returned due to endpoint shutdown,they don't retain stale DMA mappings. The 'false' parameter tosglist_do_debounce() prevents copying data back (appropriate forshutdown path where transfer was aborted).

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-2026-31503 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 6.1

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:udp: Fix wildcard bind conflict check when using hash2When binding a udp_sock to a local address and port, UDP usestwo hashes (udptable->hash and udptable->hash2) for collisiondetection. The current code switches to "hash2" whenhslot->count > 10."hash2" is keyed by local address and local port."hash" is keyed by local port only.The issue can be shown in the following bind sequence (pseudo code):bind(fd1, "[fd00::1]:8888")bind(fd2, "[fd00::2]:8888")bind(fd3, "[fd00::3]:8888")bind(fd4, "[fd00::4]:8888")bind(fd5, "[fd00::5]:8888")bind(fd6, "[fd00::6]:8888")bind(fd7, "[fd00::7]:8888")bind(fd8, "[fd00::8]:8888")bind(fd9, "[fd00::9]:8888")bind(fd10, "[fd00::10]:8888")/* Correctly return -EADDRINUSE because "hash" is used * instead of "hash2". udp_lib_lport_inuse() detects the * conflict. */bind(fail_fd, "[::]:8888")/* After one more socket is bound to "[fd00::11]:8888", * hslot->count exceeds 10 and "hash2" is used instead. */bind(fd11, "[fd00::11]:8888")bind(fail_fd, "[::]:8888") /* succeeds unexpectedly */The same issue applies to the IPv4 wildcard address "0.0.0.0"and the IPv4-mapped wildcard address "::ffff:0.0.0.0". Forexample, if there are existing sockets bound to"192.168.1.[1-11]:8888", then binding "0.0.0.0:8888" or"[::ffff:0.0.0.0]:8888" can also miss the conflict whenhslot->count > 10.TCP inet_csk_get_port() already has the correct check ininet_use_bhash2_on_bind(). Rename it toinet_use_hash2_on_bind() and move it to inet_hashtables.hso udp.c can reuse it in this fix.

When the function unbinds, the parent device is destroyed, butthe net_device survives, resulting in dangling sysfs symlinks:console:/ # ls -l /sys/class/net/usb0lrwxrwxrwx ... /sys/class/net/usb0 ->/sys/devices/platform/.../gadget.0/net/usb0console:/ # ls -l /sys/devices/platform/.../gadget.0/net/usb0ls: .../gadget.0/net/usb0: No such file or directoryUse device_move() to reparent the net_device between the gadget devicetree and /sys/devices/virtual across bind and unbind cycles. During thefinal unbind, calling device_move(NULL) moves the net_device to thevirtual device tree before the gadget device is destroyed. On rebinding,device_move() reparents the device back under the new gadget, ensuringproper sysfs topology and power management ordering.To maintain compatibility with legacy composite drivers (e.g., multi.c),the bound flag is used to indicate whether the network device is sharedand pre-registered during the legacy driver's bind phase.

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-2026-23193 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.8

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:scsi: target: iscsi: Fix use-after-free in iscsit_dec_session_usage_count()In iscsit_dec_session_usage_count(), the function calls complete() whileholding the sess->session_usage_lock. Similar to the connection usage countlogic, the waiter signaled by complete() (e.g., in the session releasepath) may wake up and free the iscsit_session structure immediately.This creates a race condition where the current thread may attempt toexecute spin_unlock_bh() on a session structure that has already beendeallocated, resulting in a KASAN slab-use-after-free.To resolve this, release the session_usage_lock before calling complete()to ensure all dereferences of the sess pointer are finished before thewaiter is allowed to proceed with deallocation.

CVE-2026-6357 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.8

Description: pip prior to version 26.1 would run self-update check functionality after installing wheel files which required importing well-known Python modules names. These module imports were intentionally deferred to increase startup time of the pip CLI. The patch changes self-update functionality to run before wheels are installed to prevent newly-installed modules from being imported shortly after the installation of a wheel package. Users should still review package contents prior to installation.

CVE-2026-5928 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.7

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.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:bpf: Fix stack-out-of-bounds write in devmapget_upper_ifindexes() iterates over all upper devices and writes theirindices into an array without checking bounds.Also the callers assume that the max number of upper devices isMAX_NEST_DEV and allocate excluded_devices[1+MAX_NEST_DEV] on the stack,but that assumption is not correct and the number of upper devices couldbe larger than MAX_NEST_DEV (e.g., many macvlans), causing astack-out-of-bounds write.Add a max parameter to get_upper_ifindexes() to avoid the issue.When there are too many upper devices, return -EOVERFLOW and abort theredirect.To reproduce, create more than MAX_NEST_DEV(8) macvlans on a device withan XDP program attached using BPF_F_BROADCAST | BPF_F_EXCLUDE_INGRESS.Then send a packet to the device to trigger the XDP redirect path.

CVE-2026-31675 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.6

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net/sched: sch_netem: fix out-of-bounds access in packet corruptionIn netem_enqueue(), the packet corruption logic usesget_random_u32_below(skb_headlen(skb)) to select an index formodifying skb->data. When an AF_PACKET TX_RING sends fully non-linearpackets over an IPIP tunnel, skb_headlen(skb) evaluates to 0.Passing 0 to get_random_u32_below() takes the variable-ceil slow pathwhich returns an unconstrained 32-bit random integer. Using thisunconstrained value as an offset into skb->data results in anout-of-bounds memory access.Fix this by verifying skb_headlen(skb) is non-zero before attemptingto corrupt the linear data area. Fully non-linear packets will silentlybypass the corruption logic.

In multi-threaded processeswhere fdget() takes the slow path, this permanently leaks onefile reference per call, pinning the struct file and associated kernelobjects in memory. An unprivileged local user can exploit this to causekernel memory exhaustion. The issue was inadvertently fixed by commita71874379ec8 ("xattr: switch to CLASS(fd)").

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---

In particular, 5 MHz and 10 MHz are not valid under theVHT specification and must be rejected.Without this check, malformed notifications using these widths mayreach ieee80211_chan_width_to_rx_bw(), leading to a WARN_ON due toinvalid input. This issue was reported by syzbot.Reject these unsupported widths early in sta_link_apply_parameters()when opmode_notif is used. The accepted set includes 20, 40, 80, 160,and 80+80 MHz, which are valid for VHT. While 320 MHz is not definedfor VHT, it is allowed to avoid rejecting HE or EHT clients that maystill send a VHT opmode notification.

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.

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

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.

E.g.commit 5af1f84ed13a ("Bluetooth: hci_sync: Fix UAF on hci_abort_conn_sync")introduced some of these, and there probably were a few others beforeit. It's better to do the locking so that even if these runconcurrently no UAF is possible.Move the lookup of hci_conn and associated socket-specific conn toprotocol recv handlers, and do them within a single critical sectionto cover hci_conn* usage and lookup.syzkaller has reported a crash that appears to be this issue: [Task hdev->workqueue] [Task 2] hci_disconnect_all_sync l2cap_recv_acldata(hcon) hci_conn_get(hcon) hci_abort_conn_sync(hcon) hci_dev_lock hci_dev_lock hci_conn_del(hcon) v-------------------------------- hci_dev_unlock hci_conn_put(hcon) conn = hcon->l2cap_data (UAF)

CVE-2025-68358 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

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.

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.

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.

CVE-2025-71285 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: qrtr: Drop the MHI auto_queue feature for IPCR DL channelsMHI stack offers the 'auto_queue' feature, which allows the MHI stack toauto queue the buffers for the RX path (DL channel). Though this featuresimplifies the client driver design, it introduces race between the clientdrivers and the MHI stack. For instance, with auto_queue, the 'dl_callback'for the DL channel may get called before the client driver is fully probed.This means, by the time the dl_callback gets called, the client driver'sstructures might not be initialized, leading to NULL ptr dereference.Currently, the drivers have to workaround this issue by initializing theinternal structures before calling mhi_prepare_for_transfer_autoqueue().But even so, there is a chance that the client driver's internal code pathmay call the MHI queue APIs before mhi_prepare_for_transfer_autoqueue() iscalled, leading to similar NULL ptr dereference. This issue has beenreported on the Qcom X1E80100 CRD machines affecting boot.So to properly fix all these races, drop the MHI 'auto_queue' featurealtogether and let the client driver (QRTR) manage the RX buffers manually.In the QRTR driver, queue the RX buffers based on the ring length duringprobe and recycle the buffers in 'dl_callback' once they are consumed. Thisalso warrants removing the setting of 'auto_queue' flag from controllerdrivers.Currently, this 'auto_queue' feature is only enabled for IPCR DL channel.So only the QRTR client driver requires the modification.

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.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:can: esd_usb: esd_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 esd_usb_open(), the URBs for USB-in transfers are allocated, added tothe dev->rx_submitted anchor and submitted. In the complete callbackesd_usb_read_bulk_callback(), the URBs are processed and resubmitted. Inesd_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 esd_usb_close().Fix the memory leak by anchoring the URB in theesd_usb_read_bulk_callback() to the dev->rx_submitted anchor.

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-2026-23136 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.

CVE-2026-23138 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

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. This only handles the tracing stack trace side of thebug. The RCU fix will be handled separately.

CVE-2026-23140 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

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.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:rocker: fix memory leak in rocker_world_port_post_fini()In rocker_world_port_pre_init(), rocker_port->wpriv is allocated withkzalloc(wops->port_priv_size, GFP_KERNEL). However, inrocker_world_port_post_fini(), the memory is only freed whenwops->port_post_fini callback is set: if (!wops->port_post_fini) return; wops->port_post_fini(rocker_port); kfree(rocker_port->wpriv);Since rocker_ofdpa_ops does not implement port_post_fini callback(it is NULL), the wpriv memory allocated for each port is never freedwhen ports are removed. 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.

CVE-2026-23201 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ceph: fix oops due to invalid pointer for kfree() in parse_longname()This fixes a kernel oops when reading ceph snapshot directories (.snap),for example by simply running `ls /mnt/my_ceph/.snap`.The variable str is guarded by __free(kfree), but advanced by one forskipping the initial '_' in snapshot names. Thus, kfree() is calledwith an invalid pointer. This patch removes the need for advancing thepointer so kfree() is called with correct memory pointer.Steps to reproduce:1. Create snapshots on a cephfs volume (I've 63 snaps in my testcase)2. Add cephfs mount to fstab$ echo "samba-fileserver@.files=/volumes/datapool/stuff/3461082b-ecc9-4e82-8549-3fd2590d3fb6 /mnt/test/stuff ceph acl,noatime,_netdev 0 0" >> /etc/fstab3. Reboot the system$ systemctl reboot4. Check if it's really mounted$ mount | grep stuff5. List snapshots (expected 63 snapshots on my system)$ ls /mnt/test/stuff/.snapNow ls hangs forever and the kernel log shows the oops.

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.

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: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").

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.

A classical AB-BA deadlock.phy_led_triggers_registers() does not require the RTNL, it does notmake any calls into the network stack which require protection. Thereis also no requirement the PHY has been attached to a MAC, thetriggers only make use of phydev state. This allows the call tophy_led_triggers_registers() to be placed elsewhere. PHY probe() andrelease() don't hold RTNL, so solving the AB-BA deadlock.

Else, return-ENODEV to signal the nvme-fc transport to handle freeing lsrsp.

CVE-2026-23377 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

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:ice: Fix memory leak in ice_set_ringparam()In ice_set_ringparam, tx_rings and xdp_rings are allocated beforerx_rings. If the allocation of rx_rings fails, the code jumps tothe done label leaking both tx_rings and xdp_rings. Furthermore, ifthe setup of an individual Rx ring fails during the loop, the code jumpsto the free_tx label which releases tx_rings but leaks xdp_rings.Fix this by introducing a free_xdp label and updating the error paths toensure both xdp_rings and tx_rings are properly freed if rx_ringsallocation or setup fails.Compile tested only.

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: 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.

CVE-2026-31429 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

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. Expected skbuff_small_head but got kmalloc-1kFix this by always calling kfree(head) in skb_kfree_head(). This keepsthe free path generic and avoids allocator-specific misclassificationfor KFENCE objects.

CVE-2026-31444 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

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-2026-31452 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.

It shouldn't be invalid since this is a re-insertion, so must haveworked before. Leaving the likely culprit as something already placedwhere we want to insert the vma.Following from that, for the case where we do something like a rebind inthe middle of a vma, and one or both mapped ends are already compatible,we skip doing the rebind of those vma and set next/prev to NULL. As wellas then adjust the original unmap va range, to avoid unmapping the ends.However, if we trigger the unwind path, we end up with three va, withthe two ends never being removed and the original va range in the middlestill being the shrunken size.If this occurs, one failure mode is when another unwind op needs tointeract with that range, which can happen with a vector of binds. Forexample, if we need to re-insert something in place of the original va.In this case the va is still the shrunken version, so when removing itand then doing a re-insert it can overlap with the ends, which werenever removed, triggering a warning like above, plus leaving the vm in abad state.With that, we need two things here: 1) Stop nuking the prev/next tracking for the skip cases. Instead relying on checking for skip prev/next, where needed. That way on the unwind path, we now correctly remove both ends. 2) Undo the unmap va shrinkage, on the unwind path. With the two ends now removed the unmap va should expand back to the original size again, before re-insertion.v2: - Update the explanation in the commit message, based on an actual IGT of triggering this issue, rather than conjecture. - Also undo the unmap shrinkage, for the skip case. With the two ends now removed, the original unmap va range should expand back to the original range.v3: - Track the old start/range separately. vma_size/start() uses the va info directly.(cherry picked from commit aec6969f75afbf4e01fd5fb5850ed3e9c27043ac)

This could lead to race conditions.However, adding mutex protection directly to these functions causesa deadlock because pmbus_regulator_notify() (which callsregulator_notifier_call_chain()) is often called with the mutexalready held (e.g., from pmbus_fault_handler()). If a regulatorcallback then calls one of the now-protected voltage functions,it will attempt to acquire the same mutex.Rework pmbus_regulator_notify() to utilize a worker function tosend notifications outside of the mutex protection.

CVE-2026-31519 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:btrfs: set BTRFS_ROOT_ORPHAN_CLEANUP during subvol createWe have recently observed a number of subvolumes with broken dentries.ls-ing the parent dir looks like:drwxrwxrwt 1 root root 16 Jan 23 16:49 .drwxr-xr-x 1 root root 24 Jan 23 16:48 ..d????????? ? ? ? ? ? broken_subvoland similarly stat-ing the file fails.In this state, deleting the subvol fails with ENOENT, but attempting tocreate a new file or subvol over it errors out with EEXIST and evenaborts the fs. Which leaves us a bit stuck.dmesg contains a single notable error message reading:"could not do orphan cleanup -2"2 is ENOENT and the error comes from the failure handling path ofbtrfs_orphan_cleanup(), with the stack leading back up tobtrfs_lookup().btrfs_lookupbtrfs_lookup_dentrybtrfs_orphan_cleanup // prints that message and returns -ENOENTAfter some detailed inspection of the internal state, it became clearthat:- there are no orphan items for the subvol- the subvol is otherwise healthy looking, it is not half-deleted or anything, there is no drop progress, etc.- the subvol was created a while ago and does the meaningful first btrfs_orphan_cleanup() call that sets BTRFS_ROOT_ORPHAN_CLEANUP much later.- after btrfs_orphan_cleanup() fails, btrfs_lookup_dentry() returns -ENOENT, which results in a negative dentry for the subvolume via d_splice_alias(NULL, dentry), leading to the observed behavior. The bug can be mitigated by dropping the dentry cache, at which point we can successfully delete the subvolume if we want.i.e.,btrfs_lookup() btrfs_lookup_dentry() if (!sb_rdonly(inode->vfs_inode)->vfs_inode) btrfs_orphan_cleanup(sub_root) test_and_set_bit(BTRFS_ROOT_ORPHAN_CLEANUP) btrfs_search_slot() // finds orphan item for inode N ... prints "could not do orphan cleanup -2" if (inode == ERR_PTR(-ENOENT)) inode = NULL; return d_splice_alias(NULL, dentry) // NEGATIVE DENTRY for valid subvolumebtrfs_orphan_cleanup() does test_and_set_bit(BTRFS_ROOT_ORPHAN_CLEANUP)on the root when it runs, so it cannot run more than once on a givenroot, so something else must run concurrently. However, the obviousroutes to deleting an orphan when nlinks goes to 0 should not be able torun without first doing a lookup into the subvolume, which should runbtrfs_orphan_cleanup() and set the bit.The final important observation is that create_subvol() callsd_instantiate_new() but does not set BTRFS_ROOT_ORPHAN_CLEANUP, so ifthe dentry cache gets dropped, the next lookup into the subvolume willmake a real call into btrfs_orphan_cleanup() for the first time. Thisopens up the possibility of concurrently deleting the inode/orphan itemsbut most typical evict() paths will be holding a reference on the parentdentry (child dentry holds parent->d_lockref.count via dget ind_alloc(), released in __dentry_kill()) and prevent the parent frombeing removed from the dentry cache.The one exception is delayed iputs. Ordered extent creation callsigrab() on the inode. If the file is unlinked and closed while thoserefs are held, iput() in __dentry_kill() decrements i_count but doesnot trigger eviction (i_count > 0). The child dentry is freed and thesubvol dentry's d_lockref.count drops to 0, making it evictable whilethe inode is still alive.Since there are two races (the race between writeback and unlink andthe race between lookup and delayed iputs), and there are too many movingparts, the following three diagrams show the complete picture.(Only the second and third are races)Phase 1:Create Subvol in dentry cache without BTRFS_ROOT_ORPHAN_CLEANUP setbtrfs_mksubvol() lookup_one_len() __lookup_slow() d_alloc_parallel() __d_alloc() // d_lockref.count = 1 create_subvol(dentry) // doesn't touch the bit.. d_instantiate_new(dentry, inode) // dentry in cache with d_lockref.c---truncated---

If the globalbitmap buffer does not contain a valid dinode, report filesystemcorruption with ocfs2_error() and fail the resize operation instead ofcrashing the kernel.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:HID: core: clamp report_size in s32ton() to avoid undefined shifts32ton() shifts by n-1 where n is the field's report_size, a value thatcomes directly from a HID device. The HID parser bounds report_sizeonly to <= 256, so a broken HID device can supply a report descriptorwith a wide field that triggers shift exponents up to 256 on a 32-bittype when an output report is built via hid_output_field() orhid_set_field().Commit ec61b41918587 ("HID: core: fix shift-out-of-bounds inhid_report_raw_event") added the same n > 32 clamp to the functionsnto32(), but s32ton() was never given the same fix as I guess syzbothadn't figured out how to fuzz a device the same way.Fix this up by just clamping the max value of n, just like snto32()does.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:rxrpc: proc: size address buffers for %pISpc outputThe AF_RXRPC procfs helpers format local and remote socket addresses intofixed 50-byte stack buffers with "%pISpc".That is too small for the longest current-tree IPv6-with-port form theformatter can produce. In lib/vsprintf.c, the compressed IPv6 path uses adotted-quad tail not only for v4mapped addresses, but also for ISATAPaddresses via ipv6_addr_is_isatap().As a result, a case such as [ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:0:5efe:255.255.255.255]:65535is possible with the current formatter. That is 50 visible characters, so51 bytes including the trailing NUL, which does not fit in the existingchar[50] buffers used by net/rxrpc/proc.c.Size the buffers from the formatter's maximum textual form and switch thecall sites to scnprintf().Changes since v1:- correct the changelog to cite the actual maximum current-tree case explicitly- frame the proof around the ISATAP formatting path instead of the earlier mapped-v4 example

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:rxrpc: Fix call removal to use RCU safe deletionFix rxrpc call removal from the rxnet->calls list to use list_del_rcu()rather than list_del_init() to prevent stuffing up reading/proc/net/rxrpc/calls from potentially getting into an infinite loop.This, however, means that list_empty() no longer works on an entry that'sbeen deleted from the list, making it harder to detect prior deletion. Fixthis by:Firstly, make rxrpc_destroy_all_calls() only dump the first ten calls thatare unexpectedly still on the list. Limiting the number of steps meansthere's no need to call cond_resched() or to remove calls from the listhere, thereby eliminating the need for rxrpc_put_call() to check for that.rxrpc_put_call() can then be fixed to unconditionally delete the call fromthe list as it is the only place that the deletion occurs.

When userspace does a partial munmap() on a privcmd mapping,the kernel splits the VMA via __split_vma(). Since may_split is NULL,the split is allowed. vm_area_dup() copies vm_private_data (a pagesarray allocated in alloc_empty_pages()) into the new VMA without anyfixup, because there is no .open callback.Both VMAs now point to the same pages array. When the unmapped portionis closed, privcmd_close() calls: - xen_unmap_domain_gfn_range() - xen_free_unpopulated_pages() - kvfree(pages)The surviving VMA still holds the dangling pointer.

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.

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?) 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.

CVE-2026-41256 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: jq is a command-line JSON processor. In 1.8.1 and earlier, Top-level jq programs loaded from a file with -f are truncated at the first embedded NUL byte on current upstream HEAD. A crafted filter file such as . followed by \x00 and arbitrary suffix compiles and executes as only the prefix before the NUL. This leaves jq with a post-CVE-2026-33948 prefix/full-buffer mismatch on the compilation path even though the JSON parser path has already been fixed.

CVE-2026-43009 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:bpf: Fix incorrect pruning due to atomic fetch precision trackingWhen backtrack_insn encounters a BPF_STX instruction with BPF_ATOMICand BPF_FETCH, the src register (or r0 for BPF_CMPXCHG) also acts asa destination, thus receiving the old value from the memory location.The current backtracking logic does not account for this. It treatsatomic fetch operations the same as regular stores where the srcregister is only an input. This leads the backtrack_insn to fail topropagate precision to the stack location, which is then not markedas precise!Later, the verifier's path pruning can incorrectly consider two statesequivalent when they differ in terms of stack state. Meaning, twobranches can be treated as equivalent and thus get pruned when theyshould not be seen as such.Fix it as follows: Extend the BPF_LDX handling in backtrack_insn toalso cover atomic fetch operations via is_atomic_fetch_insn() helper.When the fetch dst register is being tracked for precision, clear it,and propagate precision over to the stack slot. For non-stack memory,the precision walk stops at the atomic instruction, same as regularBPF_LDX. This covers all fetch variants.Before: 0: (b7) r1 = 8 ; R1=8 1: (7b) *(u64 *)(r10 -8) = r1 ; R1=8 R10=fp0 fp-8=8 2: (b7) r2 = 0 ; R2=0 3: (db) r2 = atomic64_fetch_add((u64 *)(r10 -8), r2) ; R2=8 R10=fp0 fp-8=mmmmmmmm 4: (bf) r3 = r10 ; R3=fp0 R10=fp0 5: (0f) r3 += r2 mark_precise: frame0: last_idx 5 first_idx 0 subseq_idx -1 mark_precise: frame0: regs=r2 stack= before 4: (bf) r3 = r10 mark_precise: frame0: regs=r2 stack= before 3: (db) r2 = atomic64_fetch_add((u64 *)(r10 -8), r2) mark_precise: frame0: regs=r2 stack= before 2: (b7) r2 = 0 6: R2=8 R3=fp8 6: (b7) r0 = 0 ; R0=0 7: (95) exitAfter: 0: (b7) r1 = 8 ; R1=8 1: (7b) *(u64 *)(r10 -8) = r1 ; R1=8 R10=fp0 fp-8=8 2: (b7) r2 = 0 ; R2=0 3: (db) r2 = atomic64_fetch_add((u64 *)(r10 -8), r2) ; R2=8 R10=fp0 fp-8=mmmmmmmm 4: (bf) r3 = r10 ; R3=fp0 R10=fp0 5: (0f) r3 += r2 mark_precise: frame0: last_idx 5 first_idx 0 subseq_idx -1 mark_precise: frame0: regs=r2 stack= before 4: (bf) r3 = r10 mark_precise: frame0: regs=r2 stack= before 3: (db) r2 = atomic64_fetch_add((u64 *)(r10 -8), r2) mark_precise: frame0: regs= stack=-8 before 2: (b7) r2 = 0 mark_precise: frame0: regs= stack=-8 before 1: (7b) *(u64 *)(r10 -8) = r1 mark_precise: frame0: regs=r1 stack= before 0: (b7) r1 = 8 6: R2=8 R3=fp8 6: (b7) r0 = 0 ; R0=0 7: (95) exit

Consequently, the initializationflow proceeds to call mlx5_ldev_add_debugfs() even when there is novalid LAG context.mlx5_ldev_add_debugfs() blindly created the debugfs directory andattributes. This exposed interfaces (like the members file) that rely ona valid ldev pointer, leading to potential NULL pointer dereferences ifaccessed when ldev is NULL.Add a check to verify that mlx5_lag_dev(dev) returns a valid pointerbefore attempting to create the debugfs entries.

When CTA_EXPECT_NAT is notpresent in the netlink message, saved_addr and saved_proto arenever initialized. Stale data from a previous slab occupant canthen be dumped to userspace by ctnetlink_exp_dump_expect(), whichchecks these fields to decide whether to emit CTA_EXPECT_NAT.The safe sibling nf_ct_expect_init(), used by the packet path,explicitly zeroes these fields.Zero saved_addr, saved_proto and dir in the else branch, guardedby IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NF_NAT) since these fields only exist whenNAT is enabled.Confirmed by priming the expect slab with NAT-bearing expectations,freeing them, creating a new expectation without CTA_EXPECT_NAT,and observing that the ctnetlink dump emits a spuriousCTA_EXPECT_NAT containing stale data from the prior allocation.

CVE-2026-43038 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ipv6: icmp: clear skb2->cb[] in ip6_err_gen_icmpv6_unreach()Sashiko AI-review observed: In ip6_err_gen_icmpv6_unreach(), the skb is an outer IPv4 ICMP error packet where its cb contains an IPv4 inet_skb_parm. When skb is cloned into skb2 and passed to icmp6_send(), it uses IP6CB(skb2). IP6CB interprets the IPv4 inet_skb_parm as an inet6_skb_parm. The cipso offset in inet_skb_parm.opt directly overlaps with dsthao in inet6_skb_parm at offset 18. If an attacker sends a forged ICMPv4 error with a CIPSO IP option, dsthao would be a non-zero offset. Inside icmp6_send(), mip6_addr_swap() is called and uses ipv6_find_tlv(skb, opt->dsthao, IPV6_TLV_HAO). This would scan the inner, attacker-controlled IPv6 packet starting at that offset, potentially returning a fake TLV without checking if the remaining packet length can hold the full 18-byte struct ipv6_destopt_hao. Could mip6_addr_swap() then perform a 16-byte swap that extends past the end of the packet data into skb_shared_info? Should the cb array also be cleared in ip6_err_gen_icmpv6_unreach() and ip6ip6_err() to prevent this?This patch implements the first suggestion.I am not sure if ip6ip6_err() needs to be changed.A separate patch would be better anyway.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: ipv6: ndisc: fix ndisc_ra_useropt to initialize nduseropt_padX fields to zero to prevent an info-leakWhen processing Router Advertisements with user options the kernelbuilds an RTM_NEWNDUSEROPT netlink message. The nduseroptmsg structhas three padding fields that are never zeroed and can leak kernel dataThe fix is simple, just zeroes the padding fields.

CVE-2026-43041 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: qrtr: replace qrtr_tx_flow radix_tree with xarray to fix memory leak__radix_tree_create() allocates and links intermediate nodes into thetree one by one. If a subsequent allocation fails, the already-linkednodes remain in the tree with no corresponding leaf entry. These orphanedinternal nodes are never reclaimed because radix_tree_for_each_slot()only visits slots containing leaf values.The radix_tree API is deprecated in favor of xarray. As suggested byMatthew Wilcox, migrate qrtr_tx_flow from radix_tree to xarray insteadof fixing the radix_tree itself [1]. xarray properly handles cleanup ofinternal nodes - xa_destroy() frees all internal xarray nodes when theqrtr_node is released, preventing the leak.[1] https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260225071623.41275-1-jiayuan.chen@linux.dev/T/

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:mpls: add seqcount to protect the platform_label{,s} pairThe RCU-protected codepaths (mpls_forward, mpls_dump_routes) can havean inconsistent view of platform_labels vs platform_label in case of aconcurrent resize (resize_platform_label_table, underplatform_mutex). This can lead to OOB accesses.This patch adds a seqcount, so that we get a consistent snapshot.Note that mpls_label_ok is also susceptible to this, so the checkagainst RTA_DST in rtm_to_route_config, done outside platform_mutex,is not sufficient. This value gets passed to mpls_label_ok once morein both mpls_route_add and mpls_route_del, so there is no issue, butthat additional check must not be removed.

CVE-2026-43053 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:xfs: close crash window in attr dabtree inactivationWhen inactivating an inode with node-format extended attributes,xfs_attr3_node_inactive() invalidates all child leaf/node blocks viaxfs_trans_binval(), but intentionally does not remove the correspondingentries from their parent node blocks. The implicit assumption is thatxfs_attr_inactive() will truncate the entire attr fork to zero extentsafterwards, so log recovery will never reach the root node and followthose stale pointers.However, if a log shutdown occurs after the leaf/node block cancellationscommit but before the attr bmap truncation commits, this assumptionbreaks. Recovery replays the attr bmap intact (the inode still hasattr fork extents), but suppresses replay of all cancelled leaf/nodeblocks, maybe leaving them as stale data on disk. On the next mount,xlog_recover_process_iunlinks() retries inactivation and attempts toread the root node via the attr bmap. If the root node was not replayed,reading the unreplayed root block triggers a metadata verificationfailure immediately; if it was replayed, following its child pointersto unreplayed child blocks triggers the same failure: XFS (pmem0): Metadata corruption detected at xfs_da3_node_read_verify+0x53/0x220, xfs_da3_node block 0x78 XFS (pmem0): Unmount and run xfs_repair XFS (pmem0): First 128 bytes of corrupted metadata buffer: 00000000: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 00000010: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 00000020: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 00000030: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 00000040: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 00000050: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 00000060: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ 00000070: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................ XFS (pmem0): metadata I/O error in "xfs_da_read_buf+0x104/0x190" at daddr 0x78 len 8 error 117Fix this in two places:In xfs_attr3_node_inactive(), after calling xfs_trans_binval() on achild block, immediately remove the entry that references it from theparent node in the same transaction. This eliminates the window wherethe parent holds a pointer to a cancelled block. Once all children areremoved, the now-empty root node is converted to a leaf block within thesame transaction. This node-to-leaf conversion is necessary for crashsafety. If the system shutdown after the empty node is written to thelog but before the second-phase bmap truncation commits, log recoverywill attempt to verify the root block on disk. xfs_da3_node_verify()does not permit a node block with count == 0; such a block will failverification and trigger a metadata corruption shutdown. on the otherhand, leaf blocks are allowed to have this transient state.In xfs_attr_inactive(), split the attr fork truncation into two explicitphases. First, truncate all extents beyond the root block (the childextents whose parent references have already been removed above).Second, invalidate the root block and truncate the attr bmap to zero ina single transaction. The two operations in the second phase must beatomic: as long as the attr bmap has any non-zero length, recovery canfollow it to the root block, so the root block invalidation must committogether with the bmap-to-zero truncation.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:scsi: target: tcm_loop: Drain commands in target_reset handlertcm_loop_target_reset() violates the SCSI EH contract: it returns SUCCESSwithout draining any in-flight commands. The SCSI EH documentation(scsi_eh.rst) requires that when a reset handler returns SUCCESS the driverhas made lower layers "forget about timed out scmds" and is ready for newcommands. Every other SCSI LLD (virtio_scsi, mpt3sas, ipr, scsi_debug,mpi3mr) enforces this by draining or completing outstanding commands beforereturning SUCCESS.Because tcm_loop_target_reset() doesn't drain, the SCSI EH reuses in-flightscsi_cmnd structures for recovery commands (e.g. TUR) while the target corestill has async completion work queued for the old se_cmd. The memset inqueuecommand zeroes se_lun and lun_ref_active, causingtransport_lun_remove_cmd() to skip its percpu_ref_put(). The leaked LUNreference prevents transport_clear_lun_ref() from completing, hangingconfigfs LUN unlink forever in D-state: INFO: task rm:264 blocked for more than 122 seconds. rm D 0 264 258 0x00004000 Call Trace: __schedule+0x3d0/0x8e0 schedule+0x36/0xf0 transport_clear_lun_ref+0x78/0x90 [target_core_mod] core_tpg_remove_lun+0x28/0xb0 [target_core_mod] target_fabric_port_unlink+0x50/0x60 [target_core_mod] configfs_unlink+0x156/0x1f0 [configfs] vfs_unlink+0x109/0x290 do_unlinkat+0x1d5/0x2d0Fix this by making tcm_loop_target_reset() actually drain commands: 1. Issue TMR_LUN_RESET via tcm_loop_issue_tmr() to drain all commands that the target core knows about (those not yet CMD_T_COMPLETE). 2. Use blk_mq_tagset_busy_iter() to iterate all started requests and flush_work() on each se_cmd - this drains any deferred completion work for commands that already had CMD_T_COMPLETE set before the TMR (which the TMR skips via __target_check_io_state()). This is the same pattern used by mpi3mr, scsi_debug, and libsas to drain outstanding commands during reset.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: correctly handle tunneled traffic on IPV6_CSUM GSO fallbackNETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM only advertises support for checksum offload ofpackets without IPv6 extension headers. Packets with extensionheaders must fall back onto software checksumming. Since TSOdepends on checksum offload, those must revert to GSO.The below commit introduces that fallback. It always checksnetwork header length. For tunneled packets, the inner header lengthmust be checked instead. Extend the check accordingly.A special case is tunneled packets without inner IP protocol. Such asRFC 6951 SCTP in UDP. Those are not standard IPv6 followed bytransport header either, so also must revert to the software GSO path.

In such a case, the packet is on the RX path andskb->queue_mapping contains the RX queue index of the ingress device. Ifthe ingress device has more RX queues than the egress device (dev) hasTX queues, skb_get_queue_mapping(skb) will exceed dev->num_tx_queues.Add a check to avoid this situation since skb_get_tx_queue() does notclamp the index. This issue has also revealed that per queue visibilitycannot be accurate and will be replaced later as a new feature.While at it, add missing lock around qdisc_qstats_qlen_backlog(). Thefunction __ioam6_fill_trace_data() is called from both softirq andprocess contexts, hence the use of spin_lock_bh() here.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:netfilter: nft_set_pipapo_avx2: don't return non-matching entry on expiryNew test case fails unexpectedly when avx2 matching functions are used.The test first loads a ranomly generated pipapo setwith 'ipv4 . port' key, i.e. nft -f foo.This works. Then, it reloads the set after a flush:(echo flush set t s; cat foo) | nft -f -This is expected to work, because its the same set after all and it wasalready loaded once.But with avx2, this fails: nft reports a clashing element.The reported clash is of following form: We successfully re-inserted a . b c . dThen we try to insert a . davx2 finds the already existing a . d, which (due to 'flush set') is markedas invalid in the new generation. It skips the element and moves to next.Due to incorrect masking, the skip-step finds the next matchingelement *only considering the first field*,i.e. we return the already reinserted "a . b", even though thelast field is different and the entry should not have been matched.No such error is reported for the generic c implementation (no avx2) or whenthe last field has to use the 'nft_pipapo_avx2_lookup_slow' fallback.Bisection points to7711f4bb4b36 ("netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: fix range overlap detection")but that fix merely uncovers this bug.Before this commit, the wrong element is returned, but erronouslyreported as a full, identical duplicate.The root-cause is too early return in the avx2 match functions.When we process the last field, we should continue to process datauntil the entire input size has been consumed to make sure no stalebits remain in the map.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:netfilter: ctnetlink: ensure safe access to master conntrackHolding reference on the expectation is not sufficient, the masterconntrack object can just go away, making exp->master invalid.To access exp->master safely:- Grab the nf_conntrack_expect_lock, this gets serialized with clean_from_lists() which also holds this lock when the master conntrack goes away.- Hold reference on master conntrack via nf_conntrack_find_get(). Not so easy since the master tuple to look up for the master conntrack is not available in the existing problematic paths.This patch goes for extending the nf_conntrack_expect_lock sectionto address this issue for simplicity, in the cases that are describedbelow this is just slightly extending the lock section.The add expectation command already holds a reference to the masterconntrack from ctnetlink_create_expect().However, the delete expectation command needs to grab the spinlockbefore looking up for the expectation. Expand the existing spinlocksection to address this to cover the expectation lookup. Note that,the nf_ct_expect_iterate_net() calls already grabs the spinlock whileiterating over the expectation table, which is correct.The get expectation command needs to grab the spinlock to ensure masterconntrack does not go away. This also expands the existing spinlocksection to cover the expectation lookup too. I needed to move thenetlink skb allocation out of the spinlock to keep it GFP_KERNEL.For the expectation events, the IPEXP_DESTROY event is already deliveredunder the spinlock, just move the delivery of IPEXP_NEW under thespinlock too because the master conntrack event cache is reached throughexp->master.While at it, add lockdep notations to help identify what codepaths needto grab the spinlock.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ipv6: ioam: fix heap buffer overflow in __ioam6_fill_trace_data()On the receive path, __ioam6_fill_trace_data() uses trace->nodelento decide how much data to write for each node. It trusts this fieldas-is from the incoming packet, with no consistency check againsttrace->type (the 24-bit field that tells which data items arepresent). A crafted packet can set nodelen=0 while setting type bits0-21, causing the function to write ~100 bytes past the allocatedregion (into skb_shared_info), which corrupts adjacent heap memoryand leads to a kernel panic.Add a shared helper ioam6_trace_compute_nodelen() in ioam6.c toderive the expected nodelen from the type field, and use it: - in ioam6_iptunnel.c (send path, existing validation) to replace the open-coded computation; - in exthdrs.c (receive path, ipv6_hop_ioam) to drop packets whose nodelen is inconsistent with the type field, before any data is written.Per RFC 9197, bits 12-21 are each short (4-octet) fields, so theyare included in IOAM6_MASK_SHORT_FIELDS (changed from 0xff100000 to0xff1ffc00).

CVE-2026-43194 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: consume xmit errors of GSO framesudpgro_frglist.sh and udpgro_bench.sh are the flakiest testscurrently in NIPA. They fail in the same exact way, TCP GROtest stalls occasionally and the test gets killed after 10min.These tests use veth to simulate GRO. They attach a trivial("return XDP_PASS;") XDP program to the veth to force TSO offand NAPI on.Digging into the failure mode we can see that the connectionis completely stuck after a burst of drops. The sender's snd_nxtis at sequence number N [1], but the receiver claims to havereceived (rcv_nxt) up to N + 3 * MSS [2]. Last piece of the puzzleis that senders rtx queue is not empty (let's say the block inthe rtx queue is at sequence number N - 4 * MSS [3]).In this state, sender sends a retransmission from the rtx queuewith a single segment, and sequence numbers N-4*MSS:N-3*MSS [3].Receiver sees it and responds with an ACK all the way up toN + 3 * MSS [2]. But sender will reject this ack as TCP_ACK_UNSENT_DATAbecause it has no recollection of ever sending data that far out [1].And we are stuck.The root cause is the mess of the xmit return codes. veth returnsan error when it can't xmit a frame. We end up with a loss eventlike this: ------------------------------------------------- | GSO super frame 1 | GSO super frame 2 | |-----------------------------------------------| | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | ------------------------------------------------- x ok ok | ok ok ok \\ snd_nxt"x" means packet lost by veth, and "ok" means it went thru.Since veth has TSO disabled in this test it sees individual segments.Segment 1 is on the retransmit queue and will be resent.So why did the sender not advance snd_nxt even tho it clearly didsend up to seg 8? tcp_write_xmit() interprets the return codefrom the core to mean that data has not been sent at all. SinceTCP deals with GSO super frames, not individual segment the cruxof the problem is that loss of a single segment can be interpretedas loss of all. TCP only sees the last return code for the lastsegment of the GSO frame (in <> brackets in the diagram above).Of course for the problem to occur we need a setup or a devicewithout a Qdisc. Otherwise Qdisc layer disconnects the protocollayer from the device errors completely.We have multiple ways to fix this. 1) make veth not return an error when it lost a packet. While this is what I think we did in the past, the issue keeps reappearing and it's annoying to debug. The game of whack a mole is not great. 2) fix the damn return codes We only talk about NETDEV_TX_OK and NETDEV_TX_BUSY in the documentation, so maybe we should make the return code from ndo_start_xmit() a boolean. I like that the most, but perhaps some ancient, not-really-networking protocol would suffer. 3) make TCP ignore the errors It is not entirely clear to me what benefit TCP gets from interpreting the result of ip_queue_xmit()? Specifically once the connection is established and we're pushing data - packet loss is just packet loss? 4) this fix Ignore the rc in the Qdisc-less+GSO case, since it's unreliable. We already always return OK in the TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS case. In the Qdisc-less case let's be a bit more conservative and only mask the GSO errors. This path is taken by non-IP-"networks" like CAN, MCTP etc, so we could regress some ancient thing. This is the simplest, but also maybe the hackiest fix?Similar fix has been proposed by Eric in the past but never committedbecause original reporter was working with an OOT driver and wasn'tproviding feedback (see Link).

CVE-2026-43216 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: Drop the lock in skb_may_tx_timestamp()skb_may_tx_timestamp() may acquire sock::sk_callback_lock. The lock mustnot be taken in IRQ context, only softirq is okay. A few drivers receivethe timestamp via a dedicated interrupt and complete the TX timestampfrom that handler. This will lead to a deadlock if the lock is alreadywrite-locked on the same CPU.Taking the lock can be avoided. The socket (pointed by the skb) willremain valid until the skb is released. The ->sk_socket and ->filemember will be set to NULL once the user closes the socket which mayhappen before the timestamp arrives.If we happen to observe the pointer while the socket is closing butbefore the pointer is set to NULL then we may use it because bothpointer (and the file's cred member) are RCU freed.Drop the lock. Use READ_ONCE() to obtain the individual pointer. Add amatching WRITE_ONCE() where the pointer are cleared.

CVE-2026-43219 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: cpsw_new: Fix potential unregister of netdev that has not been registered yetIf an error occurs during register_netdev() for the first MAC incpsw_register_ports(), even though cpsw->slaves[0].ndev is set to NULL,cpsw->slaves[1].ndev would remain unchanged. This could later causecpsw_unregister_ports() to attempt unregistering the second MAC.To address this, add a check for ndev->reg_state before callingunregister_netdev(). With this change, setting cpsw->slaves[i].ndevto NULL becomes unnecessary and can be removed accordingly.

CVE-2026-43226 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net/rds: No shortcut out of RDS_CONN_ERRORRDS connections carry a state "rds_conn_path::cp_state"and transitions from one state to another and are conditionalupon an expected state: "rds_conn_path_transition."There is one exception to this conditionality, which is"RDS_CONN_ERROR" that can be enforced by "rds_conn_path_drop"regardless of what state the condition is currently in.But as soon as a connection enters state "RDS_CONN_ERROR",the connection handling code expects it to go through theshutdown-path.The RDS/TCP multipath changes added a shortcut out of"RDS_CONN_ERROR" straight back to "RDS_CONN_CONNECTING"via "rds_tcp_accept_one_path" (e.g. after "rds_tcp_state_change").A subsequent "rds_tcp_reset_callbacks" can then transitionthe state to "RDS_CONN_RESETTING" with a shutdown-worker queued.That'll trip up "rds_conn_init_shutdown", which wasnever adjusted to handle "RDS_CONN_RESETTING" and subsequentlydrops the connection with the dreaded "DR_INV_CONN_STATE",which leaves "RDS_SHUTDOWN_WORK_QUEUED" on forever.So we do two things here:a) Don't shortcut "RDS_CONN_ERROR", but take the longer path through the shutdown code.b) Add "RDS_CONN_RESETTING" to the expected states in "rds_conn_init_shutdown" so that we won't error out and get stuck, if we ever hit weird state transitions like this again."

CVE-2026-43227 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:clocksource/drivers/sh_tmu: Always leave device running after probeThe TMU device can be used as both a clocksource and a clockeventprovider. The driver tries to be smart and power itself on and off, aswell as enabling and disabling its clock when it's not in operation.This behavior is slightly altered if the TMU is used as an earlyplatform device in which case the device is left powered on after probe,but the clock is still enabled and disabled at runtime.This has worked for a long time, but recent improvements in PREEMPT_RTand PROVE_LOCKING have highlighted an issue. As the TMU registers itselfas a clockevent provider, clockevents_register_device(), it needs to useraw spinlocks internally as this is the context of which the clockeventframework interacts with the TMU driver. However in the context ofholding a raw spinlock the TMU driver can't really manage its powerstate or clock with calls to pm_runtime_*() and clk_*() as these callsend up in other platform drivers using regular spinlocks to controlpower and clocks.This mix of spinlock contexts trips a lockdep warning. ============================= [ BUG: Invalid wait context ] 6.18.0-arm64-renesas-09926-gee959e7c5e34 #1 Not tainted ----------------------------- swapper/0/0 is trying to lock: ffff000008c9e180 (&dev->power.lock){-...}-{3:3}, at: __pm_runtime_resume+0x38/0x88 other info that might help us debug this: context-{5:5} 1 lock held by swapper/0/0: ccree e6601000.crypto: ARM CryptoCell 630P Driver: HW version 0xAF400001/0xDCC63000, Driver version 5.0 #0: ffff8000817ec298 ccree e6601000.crypto: ARM ccree device initialized (tick_broadcast_lock){-...}-{2:2}, at: __tick_broadcast_oneshot_control+0xa4/0x3a8 stack backtrace: CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.18.0-arm64-renesas-09926-gee959e7c5e34 #1 PREEMPT Hardware name: Renesas Salvator-X 2nd version board based on r8a77965 (DT) Call trace: show_stack+0x14/0x1c (C) dump_stack_lvl+0x6c/0x90 dump_stack+0x14/0x1c __lock_acquire+0x904/0x1584 lock_acquire+0x220/0x34c _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x58/0x80 __pm_runtime_resume+0x38/0x88 sh_tmu_clock_event_set_oneshot+0x84/0xd4 clockevents_switch_state+0xfc/0x13c tick_broadcast_set_event+0x30/0xa4 __tick_broadcast_oneshot_control+0x1e0/0x3a8 tick_broadcast_oneshot_control+0x30/0x40 cpuidle_enter_state+0x40c/0x680 cpuidle_enter+0x30/0x40 do_idle+0x1f4/0x280 cpu_startup_entry+0x34/0x40 kernel_init+0x0/0x130 do_one_initcall+0x0/0x230 __primary_switched+0x88/0x90For non-PREEMPT_RT builds this is not really an issue, but forPREEMPT_RT builds where normal spinlocks can sleep this might be anissue.

CVE-2026-43244 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:kcm: fix zero-frag skb in frag_list on partial sendmsg errorSyzkaller reported a warning in kcm_write_msgs() when processing amessage with a zero-fragment skb in the frag_list.When kcm_sendmsg() fills MAX_SKB_FRAGS fragments in the current skb,it allocates a new skb (tskb) and links it into the frag_list beforecopying data. If the copy subsequently fails (e.g. -EFAULT fromuser memory), tskb remains in the frag_list with zero fragments: head skb (msg being assembled, NOT yet in sk_write_queue) +-----------+ | frags[17] | (MAX_SKB_FRAGS, all filled with data) | frag_list-+--> tskb +-----------+ +----------+ | frags[0] | (empty! copy failed before filling) +----------+For SOCK_SEQPACKET with partial data already copied, the error pathsaves this message via partial_message for later completion. ForSOCK_SEQPACKET, sock_write_iter() automatically sets MSG_EOR, so asubsequent zero-length write(fd, NULL, 0) completes the message andqueues it to sk_write_queue. kcm_write_msgs() then walks thefrag_list and hits: WARN_ON(!skb_shinfo(skb)->nr_frags)TCP has a similar pattern where skbs are enqueued before data copyand cleaned up on failure via tcp_remove_empty_skb(). KCM wasmissing the equivalent cleanup.Fix this by tracking the predecessor skb (frag_prev) when allocatinga new frag_list entry. On error, if the tail skb has zero frags,use frag_prev to unlink and free it in O(1) without walking thesingly-linked frag_list. frag_prev is safe to dereference becausethe entire message chain is only held locally (or in kcm->seq_skb)and is not added to sk_write_queue until MSG_EOR, so the send pathcannot free it underneath us.Also change the WARN_ON to WARN_ON_ONCE to avoid flooding the logif the condition is somehow hit repeatedly.There are currently no KCM selftests in the kernel tree; a simplereproducer is available at [1].[1] https://gist.github.com/mrpre/a94d431c757e8d6f168f4dd1a3749daa

CVE-2026-43260 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:bnxt_en: Fix RSS context delete logicWe need to free the corresponding RSS context VNICin FW everytime an RSS context is deleted in driver.Commit 667ac333dbb7 added a check to delete the VNICin FW only when netif_running() is true to help deleteRSS contexts with interface down.Having that condition will make the driver leak VNICsin FW whenever close() happens with active RSS contexts.On the subsequent open(), as part of RSS context restoration,we will end up trying to create extra VNICs for which wedid not make any reservation. FW can fail this request,thereby making us lose active RSS contexts.Suppose an RSS context is deleted already and we try toprocess a delete request again, then the HWRM functionswill check for validity of the request and they simplyreturn if the resource is already freed. So, even fordelete-when-down cases, netif_running() check is notnecessary.Remove the netif_running() condition check when deletingan RSS context.

For instance, a 67bytes record with ERR_INFO_NUM set 46198 and section lengthset to 854918320 would dump a lot of data going a way past thefirmware memory-mapped area.Fix it by adding a logic to prevent it to go past the bufferif ERR_INFO_NUM is too big, making it report instead: [Hardware Error]: Hardware error from APEI Generic Hardware Error Source: 1 [Hardware Error]: event severity: recoverable [Hardware Error]: Error 0, type: recoverable [Hardware Error]: section_type: ARM processor error [Hardware Error]: MIDR: 0xff304b2f8476870a [Hardware Error]: section length: 854918320, CPER size: 67 [Hardware Error]: section length is too big [Hardware Error]: firmware-generated error record is incorrect [Hardware Error]: ERR_INFO_NUM is 46198[ rjw: Subject and changelog tweaks ]

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:scsi: ufs: core: Flush exception handling work when RPM level is zeroEnsure that the exception event handling work is explicitly flushed duringsuspend when the runtime power management level is set to UFS_PM_LVL_0.When the RPM level is zero, the device power mode and link state bothremain active. Previously, the UFS core driver bypassed flushing exceptionevent handling jobs in this configuration. This created a race conditionwhere the driver could attempt to access the host controller to handle anexception after the system had already entered a deep power-down state,resulting in a system crash.Explicitly flush this work and disable auto BKOPs before the suspendcallback proceeds. This guarantees that pending exception tasks completeand prevents illegal hardware access during the power-down sequence.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:mm/page_alloc: clear page->private in free_pages_prepare()Several subsystems (slub, shmem, ttm, etc.) use page->private but don'tclear it before freeing pages. When these pages are later allocated ashigh-order pages and split via split_page(), tail pages retain stalepage->private values.This causes a use-after-free in the swap subsystem. The swap code usespage->private to track swap count continuations, assuming freshlyallocated pages have page->private == 0.

CVE-2026-43309 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:md raid: fix hang when stopping arrays with metadata through dm-raidWhen using device-mapper's dm-raid target, stopping a RAID array can causethe system to hang under specific conditions.This occurs when:- A dm-raid managed device tree is suspended from top to bottom (the top-level RAID device is suspended first, followed by its underlying metadata and data devices)- The top-level RAID device is then removedRemoving the top-level device triggers a hang in the following sequence:the dm-raid destructor calls md_stop(), which tries to flush thewrite-intent bitmap by writing to the metadata sub-devices. However, thesedevices are already suspended, making them unable to complete the write-intentoperations and causing an indefinite block.Fix:- Prevent bitmap flushing when md_stop() is called from dm-raiddestructor context and avoid a quiescing/unquescing cycle which could also cause I/O- Still allow write-intent bitmap flushing when called from dm-raidsuspend contextThis ensures that RAID array teardown can complete successfully even when theunderlying devices are in a suspended state.This second patch uses md_is_rdwr() to distinguish between suspend anddestructor paths as elaborated on above.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:soc/tegra: pmc: Fix unsafe generic_handle_irq() callCurrently, when resuming from system suspend on Tegra platforms,the following warning is observed:WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 14459 at kernel/irq/irqdesc.c:666Call trace: handle_irq_desc+0x20/0x58 (P) tegra186_pmc_wake_syscore_resume+0xe4/0x15c syscore_resume+0x3c/0xb8 suspend_devices_and_enter+0x510/0x540 pm_suspend+0x16c/0x1d8The warning occurs because generic_handle_irq() is being called froma non-interrupt context which is considered as unsafe.Fix this warning by deferring generic_handle_irq() call to an IRQ workwhich gets executed in hard IRQ context where generic_handle_irq()can be called safely.When PREEMPT_RT kernels are used, regular IRQ work (initialized withinit_irq_work) is deferred to run in per-CPU kthreads in preemptiblecontext rather than hard IRQ context. Hence, use the IRQ_WORK_INIT_HARDvariant so that with PREEMPT_RT kernels, the IRQ work is processed inhardirq context instead of being deferred to a thread which is requiredfor calling generic_handle_irq().On non-PREEMPT_RT kernels, both init_irq_work() and IRQ_WORK_INIT_HARD()execute in IRQ context, so this change has no functional impact forstandard kernel configurations.[treding@nvidia.com: miscellaneous cleanups]

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:i3c: mipi-i3c-hci: Correct RING_CTRL_ABORT handling in DMA dequeueThe logic used to abort the DMA ring contains several flaws: 1. The driver unconditionally issues a ring abort even when the ring has already stopped. 2. The completion used to wait for abort completion is never re-initialized, resulting in incorrect wait behavior. 3. The abort sequence unintentionally clears RING_CTRL_ENABLE, which resets hardware ring pointers and disrupts the controller state. 4. If the ring is already stopped, the abort operation should be considered successful without attempting further action.Fix the abort handling by checking whether the ring is running beforeissuing an abort, re-initializing the completion when needed, ensuring thatRING_CTRL_ENABLE remains asserted during abort, and treating an alreadystopped ring as a successful condition.

CVE-2026-43363 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:x86/apic: Disable x2apic on resume if the kernel expects soWhen resuming from s2ram, firmware may re-enable x2apic mode, which may havebeen disabled by the kernel during boot either because it doesn't support IRQremapping or for other reasons. This causes the kernel to continue using thexapic interface, while the hardware is in x2apic mode, which causes hangs.This happens on defconfig + bare metal + s2ram.Fix this in lapic_resume() by disabling x2apic if the kernel expects it to bedisabled, i.e. when x2apic_mode = 0.The ACPI v6.6 spec, Section 16.3 [1] says firmware restores either thepre-sleep configuration or initial boot configuration for each CPU, includingMSR state: When executing from the power-on reset vector as a result of waking from an S2 or S3 sleep state, the platform firmware performs only the hardware initialization required to restore the system to either the state the platform was in prior to the initial operating system boot, or to the pre-sleep configuration state. In multiprocessor systems, non-boot processors should be placed in the same state as prior to the initial operating system boot. (further ahead) If this is an S2 or S3 wake, then the platform runtime firmware restores minimum context of the system before jumping to the waking vector. This includes: CPU configuration. Platform runtime firmware restores the pre-sleep configuration or initial boot configuration of each CPU (MSR, MTRR, firmware update, SMBase, and so on). Interrupts must be disabled (for IA-32 processors, disabled by CLI instruction). (and other things)So at least as per the spec, re-enablement of x2apic by the firmware isallowed if "x2apic on" is a part of the initial boot configuration.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: ncsi: fix skb leak in error pathsEarly return paths in NCSI RX and AEN handlers fail to releasethe received skb, resulting in a memory leak.Specifically, ncsi_aen_handler() returns on invalid AEN packetswithout consuming the skb. Similarly, ncsi_rcv_rsp() exits earlywhen failing to resolve the NCSI device, response handler, orrequest, leaving the skb unfreed.

CVE-2026-43405 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:libceph: Use u32 for non-negative values in ceph_monmap_decode()This patch fixes unnecessary implicit conversions that change signednessof blob_len and num_mon in ceph_monmap_decode().Currently blob_len and num_mon are (signed) int variables. They are usedto hold values that are always non-negative and get assigned inceph_decode_32_safe(), which is meant to assign u32 values. Bothvariables are subsequently used as unsigned values, and the value ofnum_mon is further assigned to monmap->num_mon, which is of type u32.Therefore, both variables should be of type u32. This is especiallyrelevant for num_mon. If the value read from the incoming message isvery large, it is interpreted as a negative value, and the check fornum_mon > CEPH_MAX_MON does not catch it. This leads to the attempt toallocate a very large chunk of memory for monmap, which will most likelyfail. In this case, an unnecessary attempt to allocate memory isperformed, and -ENOMEM is returned instead of -EINVAL.

CVE-2026-43407 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:libceph: Fix potential out-of-bounds access in ceph_handle_auth_reply()This patch fixes an out-of-bounds access in ceph_handle_auth_reply()that can be triggered by a message of type CEPH_MSG_AUTH_REPLY. Inceph_handle_auth_reply(), the value of the payload_len field of such amessage is stored in a variable of type int. A value greater thanINT_MAX leads to an integer overflow and is interpreted as a negativevalue. This leads to decrementing the pointer address by this value andsubsequently accessing it because ceph_decode_need() only checks thatthe memory access does not exceed the end address of the allocation.This patch fixes the issue by changing the data type of payload_len tou32. Additionally, the data type of result_msg_len is changed to u32,as it is also a variable holding a non-negative length.Also, an additional layer of sanity checks is introduced, ensuring thatdirectly after reading it from the message, payload_len andresult_msg_len are not greater than the overall segment length.BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph]Read of size 4 at addr ffff88811404df14 by task kworker/20:1/262CPU: 20 UID: 0 PID: 262 Comm: kworker/20:1 Not tainted 6.19.2 #5 PREEMPT(voluntary)Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2 04/01/2014Workqueue: ceph-msgr ceph_con_workfn [libceph]Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x76/0xa0 print_report+0xd1/0x620 ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10 ? kasan_complete_mode_report_info+0x72/0x210 kasan_report+0xe7/0x130 ? ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph] ? ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph] __asan_report_load_n_noabort+0xf/0x20 ceph_handle_auth_reply+0x642/0x7a0 [libceph] mon_dispatch+0x973/0x23d0 [libceph] ? apparmor_socket_recvmsg+0x6b/0xa0 ? __pfx_mon_dispatch+0x10/0x10 [libceph] ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30i ? mutex_unlock+0x7f/0xd0 ? __pfx_mutex_unlock+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx_do_recvmsg+0x10/0x10 [libceph] ceph_con_process_message+0x1f1/0x650 [libceph] process_message+0x1e/0x450 [libceph] ceph_con_v2_try_read+0x2e48/0x6c80 [libceph] ? __pfx_ceph_con_v2_try_read+0x10/0x10 [libceph] ? save_fpregs_to_fpstate+0xb0/0x230 ? raw_spin_rq_unlock+0x17/0xa0 ? finish_task_switch.isra.0+0x13b/0x760 ? __switch_to+0x385/0xda0 ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30 ? mutex_lock+0x8d/0xe0 ? __pfx_mutex_lock+0x10/0x10 ceph_con_workfn+0x248/0x10c0 [libceph] process_one_work+0x629/0xf80 ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30 worker_thread+0x87f/0x1570 ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx_try_to_wake_up+0x10/0x10 ? kasan_print_address_stack_frame+0x1f7/0x280 ? __pfx_worker_thread+0x10/0x10 kthread+0x396/0x830 ? __pfx__raw_spin_lock_irq+0x10/0x10 ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10 ? __kasan_check_write+0x14/0x30 ? recalc_sigpending+0x180/0x210 ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10 ret_from_fork+0x3f7/0x610 ? __pfx_ret_from_fork+0x10/0x10 ? __switch_to+0x385/0xda0 ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 [ idryomov: replace if statements with ceph_decode_need() for payload_len and result_msg_len ]

These will lead to a set_nlink() call, updating the`i_nlink` counter to the value received from the MDS. If that new`i_nlink` value happens to be zero, it is illegal to decrement itfurther. But that is exactly what ceph_unlink() will do then.The WARNING can be reproduced this way:1. Force async unlink; only the async code path is affected. Having no real clue about Ceph internals, I was unable to find out why the MDS wouldn't give me the "Fxr" capabilities, so I patched get_caps_for_async_unlink() to always succeed. (Note that the WARNING dump above was found on an unpatched kernel, without this kludge - this is not a theoretical bug.)2. Add a sleep call after ceph_mdsc_submit_request() so the unlink completion gets handled by a worker thread before drop_nlink() is called. This guarantees that the `i_nlink` is already zero before drop_nlink() runs.The solution is to skip the counter decrement when it is already zero,but doing so without a lock is still racy (TOCTOU). Sinceceph_fill_inode() and handle_cap_grant() both hold the`ceph_inode_info.i_ceph_lock` spinlock while set_nlink() runs, thisseems like the proper lock to protect the `i_nlink` updates.I found prior art in NFS and SMB (using `inode.i_lock`) and AFS (using`afs_vnode.cb_lock`). All three have the zero check as well.

CVE-2026-43439 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:cgroup: fix race between task migration and iterationWhen a task is migrated out of a css_set, cgroup_migrate_add_task()first moves it from cset->tasks to cset->mg_tasks via: list_move_tail(&task->cg_list, &cset->mg_tasks);If a css_task_iter currently has it->task_pos pointing to this task,css_set_move_task() calls css_task_iter_skip() to keep the iteratorvalid. However, since the task has already been moved to ->mg_tasks,the iterator is advanced relative to the mg_tasks list instead of theoriginal tasks list. As a result, remaining tasks on cset->tasks, aswell as tasks queued on cset->mg_tasks, can be skipped by iteration.Fix this by calling css_set_skip_task_iters() before unlinkingtask->cg_list from cset->tasks. This advances all active iterators tothe next task on cset->tasks, so iteration continues correctly evenwhen a task is concurrently being migrated.This race is hard to hit in practice without instrumentation, but itcan be reproduced by artificially slowing down cgroup_procs_show().For example, on an Android device a temporary/sys/kernel/cgroup/cgroup_test knob can be added to inject a delayinto cgroup_procs_show(), and then: 1) Spawn three long-running tasks (PIDs 101, 102, 103). 2) Create a test cgroup and move the tasks into it. 3) Enable a large delay via /sys/kernel/cgroup/cgroup_test. 4) In one shell, read cgroup.procs from the test cgroup. 5) Within the delay window, in another shell migrate PID 102 by writing it to a different cgroup.procs file.Under this setup, cgroup.procs can intermittently show only PID 101while skipping PID 103. Once the migration completes, reading thefile again shows all tasks as expected.Note that this change does not allow removing the existingcss_set_skip_task_iters() call in css_set_move_task(). The new callin cgroup_migrate_add_task() only handles iterators that are racingwith migration while the task is still on cset->tasks. Iterators mayalso start after the task has been moved to cset->mg_tasks. If wedropped css_set_skip_task_iters() from css_set_move_task(), suchiterators could keep task_pos pointing to a migrating task, causingcss_task_iter_advance() to malfunction on the destination css_set,up to and including crashes or infinite loops.The race window between migration and iteration is very small, andcss_task_iter is not on a hot path. In the worst case, when aniterator is positioned on the first thread of the migrating process,cgroup_migrate_add_task() may have to skip multiple tasks viacss_set_skip_task_iters(). However, this only happens when migrationand iteration actually race, so the performance impact is negligiblecompared to the correctness fix provided here.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:nvme-pci: Fix race bug in nvme_poll_irqdisable()In the following scenario, pdev can be disabled between (1) and (3) by(2). This sets pdev->msix_enabled = 0. Then, pci_irq_vector() willreturn MSI-X IRQ(>15) for (1) whereas return INTx IRQ(<=15) for (2).This causes IRQ warning because it tries to enable INTx IRQ that hasnever been disabled before.To fix this, save IRQ number into a local variable and ensuredisable_irq() and enable_irq() operate on the same IRQ number. Even ifpci_free_irq_vectors() frees the IRQ concurrently, disable_irq() andenable_irq() on a stale IRQ number is still valid and safe, and thedepth accounting reamins balanced.task 1:nvme_poll_irqdisable() disable_irq(pci_irq_vector(pdev, nvmeq->cq_vector)) ...(1) enable_irq(pci_irq_vector(pdev, nvmeq->cq_vector)) ...(3)task 2:nvme_reset_work() nvme_dev_disable() pdev->msix_enable = 0; ...(2)crash log:------------[ cut here ]------------Unbalanced enable for IRQ 10WARNING: kernel/irq/manage.c:753 at __enable_irq+0x102/0x190 kernel/irq/manage.c:753, CPU#1: kworker/1:0H/26Modules linked in:CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 26 Comm: kworker/1:0H Not tainted 6.19.0-dirty #9 PREEMPT(voluntary)Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS rel-1.16.3-0-ga6ed6b701f0a-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014Workqueue: kblockd blk_mq_timeout_workRIP: 0010:__enable_irq+0x107/0x190 kernel/irq/manage.c:753Code: ff df 48 89 fa 48 c1 ea 03 0f b6 14 02 48 89 f8 83 e0 07 83 c0 03 38 d0 7c 04 84 d2 75 79 48 8d 3d 2e 7a 3f 05 41 8b 74 24 2c <67> 48 0f b9 3a e8 ef b9 21 00 5b 41 5c 5d e9 46 54 66 03 e8 e1 b9RSP: 0018:ffffc900001bf550 EFLAGS: 00010046RAX: 0000000000000007 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: ffffffffb20c0e90RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 000000000000000a RDI: ffffffffb74b88f0RBP: ffffc900001bf560 R08: ffff88800197cf00 R09: 0000000000000001R10: 0000000000000003 R11: 0000000000000003 R12: ffff8880012a6000R13: 1ffff92000037eae R14: 000000000000000a R15: 0000000000000293FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff8880b49f7000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033CR2: 0000555da4a25fa8 CR3: 00000000208e8000 CR4: 00000000000006f0Call Trace: enable_irq+0x121/0x1e0 kernel/irq/manage.c:797 nvme_poll_irqdisable+0x162/0x1c0 drivers/nvme/host/pci.c:1494 nvme_timeout+0x965/0x14b0 drivers/nvme/host/pci.c:1744 blk_mq_rq_timed_out block/blk-mq.c:1653 [inline] blk_mq_handle_expired+0x227/0x2d0 block/blk-mq.c:1721 bt_iter+0x2fc/0x3a0 block/blk-mq-tag.c:292 __sbitmap_for_each_set include/linux/sbitmap.h:269 [inline] sbitmap_for_each_set include/linux/sbitmap.h:290 [inline] bt_for_each block/blk-mq-tag.c:324 [inline] blk_mq_queue_tag_busy_iter+0x969/0x1e80 block/blk-mq-tag.c:536 blk_mq_timeout_work+0x627/0x870 block/blk-mq.c:1763 process_one_work+0x956/0x1aa0 kernel/workqueue.c:3257 process_scheduled_works kernel/workqueue.c:3340 [inline] worker_thread+0x65c/0xe60 kernel/workqueue.c:3421 kthread+0x41a/0x930 kernel/kthread.c:463 ret_from_fork+0x6f8/0x8c0 arch/x86/kernel/process.c:158 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30 arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:246 irq event stamp: 74478hardirqs last enabled at (74477): [] __raw_spin_unlock_irq include/linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:159 [inline]hardirqs last enabled at (74477): [] _raw_spin_unlock_irq+0x2c/0x60 kernel/locking/spinlock.c:202hardirqs last disabled at (74478): [] __raw_spin_lock_irqsave include/linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:108 [inline]hardirqs last disabled at (74478): [] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x85/0xa0 kernel/locking/spinlock.c:162softirqs last enabled at (74304): [] __do_softirq kernel/softirq.c:656 [inline]softirqs last enabled at (74304): [] invoke_softirq kernel/softirq.c:496 [inline]softirqs last enabled at (74304): [] __irq_exit_rcu+0xdc/0x120---truncated---

When the "last" helper saved in cb->args[1]is deleted between dump rounds, every entry fails the (cur != last)check, so cb->args[1] is never cleared. The for loop finishes withcb->args[0] == nf_ct_helper_hsize, and the 'goto restart' jumps backinto the loop body bypassing the bounds check, causing an 8-byteout-of-bounds read on nf_ct_helper_hash[nf_ct_helper_hsize].The 'goto restart' block was meant to re-traverse the current bucketwhen "last" is no longer found, but it was placed after the for loopinstead of inside it.

CVE-2026-43451 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: fix entry leak in bridge verdict error pathnfqnl_recv_verdict() calls find_dequeue_entry() to remove the queueentry from the queue data structures, taking ownership of the entry.For PF_BRIDGE packets, it then calls nfqa_parse_bridge() to parse VLANattributes. If nfqa_parse_bridge() returns an error (e.g. NFQA_VLANpresent but NFQA_VLAN_TCI missing), the function returns immediatelywithout freeing the dequeued entry or its sk_buff.This leaks the nf_queue_entry, its associated sk_buff, and all heldreferences (net_device refcounts, struct net refcount). Repeatedtriggering exhausts kernel memory.Fix this by dropping the entry via nfqnl_reinject() with NF_DROP verdicton the error path, consistent with other error handling in this file.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:mctp: route: hold key->lock in mctp_flow_prepare_output()mctp_flow_prepare_output() checks key->dev and may callmctp_dev_set_key(), but it does not hold key->lock while doing so.mctp_dev_set_key() and mctp_dev_release_key() are annotated with__must_hold(&key->lock), so key->dev access is intended to beserialized by key->lock. The mctp_sendmsg() transmit path reachesmctp_flow_prepare_output() via mctp_local_output() -> mctp_dst_output()without holding key->lock, so the check-and-set sequence is racy.Example interleaving: CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- mctp_flow_prepare_output(key, devA) if (!key->dev) // sees NULL mctp_flow_prepare_output( key, devB) if (!key->dev) // still NULL mctp_dev_set_key(devB, key) mctp_dev_hold(devB) key->dev = devB mctp_dev_set_key(devA, key) mctp_dev_hold(devA) key->dev = devA // overwrites devBNow both devA and devB references were acquired, but only the finalkey->dev value is tracked for release. One reference can be lost,causing a resource leak as mctp_dev_release_key() would only decreasethe reference on one dev.Fix by taking key->lock around the key->dev check andmctp_dev_set_key() call.

Functions like ipgre_header(), ip6gre_header(),all usenetdev_priv(dev) to access their device-specific private data. Whencalled with the bond device, netdev_priv() returns the bond's privatedata (struct bonding) instead of the expected type (e.g. structip_tunnel), leading to garbage values being read and kernel crashes.Fix this by introducing bond_header_ops with wrapper functions thatdelegate to the active slave's header_ops using the slave's owndevice. This ensures netdev_priv() in the slave's header functionsalways receives the correct device.The fix is placed in the bonding driver rather than individual devicedrivers, as the root cause is bond blindly inheriting header_ops fromthe slave without considering that these callbacks expect a specificnetdev_priv() layout.The type confusion can be observed by adding a printk inipgre_header() and running the following commands: ip link add dummy0 type dummy ip addr add 10.0.0.1/24 dev dummy0 ip link set dummy0 up ip link add gre1 type gre local 10.0.0.1 ip link add bond1 type bond mode active-backup ip link set gre1 master bond1 ip link set gre1 up ip link set bond1 up ip addr add fe80::1/64 dev bond1

CVE-2026-43465 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 5.5

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net/mlx5e: RX, Fix XDP multi-buf frag counting for striding RQXDP multi-buf programs can modify the layout of the XDP buffer when theprogram calls bpf_xdp_pull_data() or bpf_xdp_adjust_tail(). Thereferenced commit in the fixes tag corrected the assumption in the mlx5driver that the XDP buffer layout doesn't change during a programexecution. However, this fix introduced another issue: the droppedfragments still need to be counted on the driver side to avoid pagefragment reference counting issues.The issue was discovered by the drivers/net/xdp.py selftest,more specifically the test_xdp_native_tx_mb:- The mlx5 driver allocates a page_pool page and initializes it with a frag counter of 64 (pp_ref_count=64) and the internal frag counter to 0.- The test sends one packet with no payload.- On RX (mlx5e_skb_from_cqe_mpwrq_nonlinear()), mlx5 configures the XDP buffer with the packet data starting in the first fragment which is the page mentioned above.- The XDP program runs and calls bpf_xdp_pull_data() which moves the header into the linear part of the XDP buffer. As the packet doesn't contain more data, the program drops the tail fragment since it no longer contains any payload (pp_ref_count=63).- mlx5 device skips counting this fragment. Internal frag counter remains 0.- mlx5 releases all 64 fragments of the page but page pp_ref_count is 63 => negative reference counting error.Resulting splat during the test: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 188225 at ./include/net/page_pool/helpers.h:297 mlx5e_page_release_fragmented.isra.0+0xbd/0xe0 [mlx5_core] Modules linked in: [...] CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 188225 Comm: ip Not tainted 6.18.0-rc7_for_upstream_min_debug_2025_12_08_11_44 #1 NONE Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS rel-1.13.0-0-gf21b5a4aeb02-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:mlx5e_page_release_fragmented.isra.0+0xbd/0xe0 [mlx5_core] [...] Call Trace: mlx5e_free_rx_mpwqe+0x20a/0x250 [mlx5_core] mlx5e_dealloc_rx_mpwqe+0x37/0xb0 [mlx5_core] mlx5e_free_rx_descs+0x11a/0x170 [mlx5_core] mlx5e_close_rq+0x78/0xa0 [mlx5_core] mlx5e_close_queues+0x46/0x2a0 [mlx5_core] mlx5e_close_channel+0x24/0x90 [mlx5_core] mlx5e_close_channels+0x5d/0xf0 [mlx5_core] mlx5e_safe_switch_params+0x2ec/0x380 [mlx5_core] mlx5e_change_mtu+0x11d/0x490 [mlx5_core] mlx5e_change_nic_mtu+0x19/0x30 [mlx5_core] netif_set_mtu_ext+0xfc/0x240 do_setlink.isra.0+0x226/0x1100 rtnl_newlink+0x7a9/0xba0 rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x220/0x3c0 netlink_rcv_skb+0x4b/0xf0 netlink_unicast+0x255/0x380 netlink_sendmsg+0x1f3/0x420 __sock_sendmsg+0x38/0x60 ____sys_sendmsg+0x1e8/0x240 ___sys_sendmsg+0x7c/0xb0 [...] __sys_sendmsg+0x5f/0xb0 do_syscall_64+0x55/0xc70The problem applies for XDP_PASS as well which is handled in a differentcode path in the driver.This patch fixes the issue by doing page frag counting on all theoriginal XDP buffer fragments for all relevant XDP actions (XDP_TX ,XDP_REDIRECT and XDP_PASS).

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net/mlx5e: Fix DMA FIFO desync on error CQE SQ recoveryIn case of a TX error CQE, a recovery flow is triggered,mlx5e_reset_txqsq_cc_pc() resets dma_fifo_cc to 0 but not dma_fifo_pc,desyncing the DMA FIFO producer and consumer.After recovery, the producer pushes new DMA entries at the olddma_fifo_pc, while the consumer reads from position 0.This causes us to unmap stale DMA addresses from before the recovery.The DMA FIFO is a purely software construct with no HW counterpart.At the point of reset, all WQEs have been flushed so dma_fifo_cc isalready equal to dma_fifo_pc. There is no need to reset either counter,similar to how skb_fifo pc/cc are untouched.Remove the 'dma_fifo_cc = 0' reset.This fixes the following WARNING: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at drivers/iommu/dma-iommu.c:1240 iommu_dma_unmap_page+0x79/0x90 Modules linked in: mlx5_vdpa vringh vdpa bonding mlx5_ib mlx5_vfio_pci ipip mlx5_fwctl tunnel4 mlx5_core ib_ipoib geneve ip6_gre ip_gre gre nf_tables ip6_tunnel rdma_ucm ib_uverbs ib_umad vfio_pci vfio_pci_core act_mirred act_skbedit act_vlan vhost_net vhost tap ip6table_mangle ip6table_nat ip6table_filter ip6_tables iptable_mangle cls_matchall nfnetlink_cttimeout act_gact cls_flower sch_ingress vhost_iotlb iptable_raw tunnel6 vfio_iommu_type1 vfio openvswitch nsh rpcsec_gss_krb5 auth_rpcgss oid_registry xt_conntrack xt_MASQUERADE nf_conntrack_netlink nfnetlink iptable_nat nf_nat xt_addrtype br_netfilter overlay zram zsmalloc rpcrdma ib_iser libiscsi scsi_transport_iscsi rdma_cm iw_cm ib_cm ib_core fuse [last unloaded: nf_tables] CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.13.0-rc5_for_upstream_min_debug_2024_12_30_21_33 #1 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS rel-1.13.0-0-gf21b5a4aeb02-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:iommu_dma_unmap_page+0x79/0x90 Code: 2b 4d 3b 21 72 26 4d 3b 61 08 73 20 49 89 d8 44 89 f9 5b 4c 89 f2 4c 89 e6 48 89 ef 5d 41 5c 41 5d 41 5e 41 5f e9 c7 ae 9e ff <0f> 0b 5b 5d 41 5c 41 5d 41 5e 41 5f c3 66 2e 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 Call Trace: ? __warn+0x7d/0x110 ? iommu_dma_unmap_page+0x79/0x90 ? report_bug+0x16d/0x180 ? handle_bug+0x4f/0x90 ? exc_invalid_op+0x14/0x70 ? asm_exc_invalid_op+0x16/0x20 ? iommu_dma_unmap_page+0x79/0x90 ? iommu_dma_unmap_page+0x2e/0x90 dma_unmap_page_attrs+0x10d/0x1b0 mlx5e_tx_wi_dma_unmap+0xbe/0x120 [mlx5_core] mlx5e_poll_tx_cq+0x16d/0x690 [mlx5_core] mlx5e_napi_poll+0x8b/0xac0 [mlx5_core] __napi_poll+0x24/0x190 net_rx_action+0x32a/0x3b0 ? mlx5_eq_comp_int+0x7e/0x270 [mlx5_core] ? notifier_call_chain+0x35/0xa0 handle_softirqs+0xc9/0x270 irq_exit_rcu+0x71/0xd0 common_interrupt+0x7f/0xa0 asm_common_interrupt+0x22/0x40

This avoids an oldhandler manipulating an esw that has undergone one or more mode changes:- the counter is incremented in mlx5_eswitch_event_handler_unregister.- the counter is read and passed to the ephemeral mlx5_host_work struct.- the work handler takes the devlink lock and bails out if the current generation is different than the one it was scheduled to operate on.- mlx5_eswitch_cleanup does the final draining before destroying the wq.No longer flushing the workqueue has the side effect of maybe no longercancelling pending vport_change_handler work items, but that's ok sincethose are disabled elsewhere:- mlx5_eswitch_disable_locked disables the vport eq notifier.- mlx5_esw_vport_disable disarms the HW EQ notification and marks vport->enabled under state_lock to false to prevent pending vport handler from doing anything.- mlx5_eswitch_cleanup destroys the workqueue and makes sure all events are disabled/finished.

It verifies that each ACE contains the fixedSID header before using it, but does not verify that the variable-lengthSID described by sid.num_subauth is fully contained in the ACE.A malformed inheritable ACE can advertise more subauthorities than arepresent in the ACE. compare_sids() may then read past the ACE.smb_set_ace() also clamps the copied destination SID, but used theunchecked source SID count to compute the inherited ACE size. That couldadvance the temporary inherited ACE buffer pointer and nt_size accountingpast the allocated buffer.Fix this by validating the parent ACE SID count and SID length beforeusing the SID during inheritance. Compute the inherited ACE size from thecopied SID so the size matches the bounded destination SID. Reject theinherited DACL if size accumulation would overflow smb_acl.size or thesecurity descriptor allocation size.

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.

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.

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: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:netfilter: nf_conntrack_h323: fix OOB read in decode_int() CONS caseIn decode_int(), the CONS case calls get_bits(bs, 2) to read a lengthvalue, then calls get_uint(bs, len) without checking that len bytesremain in the buffer. The existing boundary check only validates the2 bits for get_bits(), not the subsequent 1-4 bytes that get_uint()reads. This allows a malformed H.323/RAS packet to cause a 1-4 byteslab-out-of-bounds read.Add a boundary check for len bytes after get_bits() and beforeget_uint().

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: fix Content-Length u32 truncation in sip_help_tcp()sip_help_tcp() parses the SIP Content-Length header withsimple_strtoul(), which returns unsigned long, but stores the result inunsigned int clen. On 64-bit systems, values exceeding UINT_MAX aresilently truncated before computing the SIP message boundary.For example, Content-Length 4294967328 (2^32 + 32) is truncated to 32,causing the parser to miscalculate where the current message ends. Theloop then treats trailing data in the TCP segment as a second SIPmessage and processes it through the SDP parser.Fix this by changing clen to unsigned long to match the return type ofsimple_strtoul(), and reject Content-Length values that exceed theremaining TCP payload length.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:spi: use generic driver_override infrastructureWhen a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing thedriver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure takingcare of proper locking internally.Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lockheld is intentional. [1]Also note that we do not enable the driver_override feature of structbus_type, as SPI - in contrast to most other buses - passes "" tosysfs_emit() when the driver_override pointer is NULL. Thus, printing"\n" instead of "(null)\n".

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:writeback: Fix use after free in inode_switch_wbs_work_fn()inode_switch_wbs_work_fn() has a loop like: wb_get(new_wb); while (1) { list = llist_del_all(&new_wb->switch_wbs_ctxs); /* Nothing to do? */ if (!list) break; ... process the items ... }Now adding of items to the list looks like:wb_queue_isw() if (llist_add(&isw->list, &wb->switch_wbs_ctxs)) queue_work(isw_wq, &wb->switch_work);Because inode_switch_wbs_work_fn() loops when processing isw items, itcan happen that wb->switch_work is pending while wb->switch_wbs_ctxs isempty. This is a problem because in that case wb can get freed (no iswitems -> no wb reference) while the work is still pending causinguse-after-free issues.We cannot just fix this by cancelling work when freeing wb because thatcould still trigger problematic 0 -> 1 transitions on wb refcount due towb_get() in inode_switch_wbs_work_fn(). It could be all handled withmore careful code but that seems unnecessarily complex so let's avoidthat until it is proven that the looping actually brings practicalbenefit. Just remove the loop from inode_switch_wbs_work_fn() instead.That way when wb_queue_isw() queues work, we are guaranteed we haveadded the first item to wb->switch_wbs_ctxs and nobody is going toremove it (and drop the wb reference it holds) until the queued workruns.

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.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:md-cluster: fix NULL pointer dereference in process_metadata_updateThe function process_metadata_update() blindly dereferences the 'thread'pointer (acquired via rcu_dereference_protected) within the wait_event()macro.While the code comment states "daemon thread must exist", there is a validrace condition window during the MD array startup sequence (md_run):1. bitmap_load() is called, which invokes md_cluster_ops->join().2. join() starts the "cluster_recv" thread (recv_daemon).3. At this point, recv_daemon is active and processing messages.4. However, mddev->thread (the main MD thread) is not initialized until later in md_run().If a METADATA_UPDATED message is received from a remote node during thisspecific window, process_metadata_update() will be called whilemddev->thread is still NULL, leading to a kernel panic.To fix this, we must validate the 'thread' pointer. If it is NULL, werelease the held lock (no_new_dev_lockres) and return early, safelyignoring the update request as the array is not yet fully ready toprocess it.

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.

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-2026-27456 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.

CVE-2026-31404 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.7

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

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:pmdomain: bcm: bcm2835-power: Increase ASB control timeoutThe bcm2835_asb_control() function uses a tight polling loop to waitfor the ASB bridge to acknowledge a request. During intensive workloads,this handshake intermittently fails for V3D's master ASB on BCM2711,resulting in "Failed to disable ASB master for v3d" errors duringruntime PM suspend. As a consequence, the failed power-off leaves V3D ina broken state, leading to bus faults or system hangs on later accesses.As the timeout is insufficient in some scenarios, increase the pollingtimeout from 1us to 5us, which is still negligible in the context of apower domain transition. Also, replace the open-coded ktime_get_ns()/cpu_relax() polling loop with readl_poll_timeout_atomic().

Since NETDEV_TX_OK tells thestack the packet was consumed, the skb is never freed, leaking memoryon every DMA mapping failure.Add dev_kfree_skb_any() before returning to properly free the skb.

CVE-2026-31680 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.7

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:net: ipv6: flowlabel: defer exclusive option free until RCU teardown`ip6fl_seq_show()` walks the global flowlabel hash under the seq-fileRCU read-side lock and prints `fl->opt->opt_nflen` when an option blockis present.Exclusive flowlabels currently free `fl->opt` as soon as `fl->users`drops to zero in `fl_release()`. However, the surrounding`struct ip6_flowlabel` remains visible in the global hash table untillater garbage collection removes it and `fl_free_rcu()` finally tears itdown.A concurrent `/proc/net/ip6_flowlabel` reader can therefore race thatearly `kfree()` and dereference freed option state, triggering a crashin `ip6fl_seq_show()`.Fix this by keeping `fl->opt` alive until `fl_free_rcu()`. That matchesthe lifetime already required for the enclosing flowlabel while readerscan still reach it under RCU.

CVE-2026-43265 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.7

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:KVM: x86: Ignore -EBUSY when checking nested events from vcpu_block()Ignore -EBUSY when checking nested events after exiting a blocking statewhile L2 is active, as exiting to userspace will generate a spurioususerspace exit, usually with KVM_EXIT_UNKNOWN, and likely lead to the VM'sdemise. Continuing with the wakeup isn't perfect either, as *something*has gone sideways if a vCPU is awakened in L2 with an injected event (orworse, a nested run pending), but continuing on gives the VM a decentchance of surviving without any major side effects.As explained in the Fixes commits, it _should_ be impossible for a vCPU tobe put into a blocking state with an already-injected event (exception,IRQ, or NMI). Unfortunately, userspace can stuff MP_STATE and/or injectedevents, and thus put the vCPU into what should be an impossible state.Don't bother trying to preserve the WARN, e.g. with an anti-syzkallerKconfig, as WARNs can (hopefully) be added in paths where _KVM_ would beviolating x86 architecture, e.g. by WARNing if KVM attempts to inject anexception or interrupt while the vCPU isn't running.

This is incorrect because pci_get_device() does not guarantee iteration in domain or bus order, so additional UBOX devices may be skipped during the scan.- Returning -EINVAL is incorrect, since marking offline buses with die_id == -1 is expected and should not be treated as an error.Separately, when NUMA is disabled on a NUMA-capable platform,pcibus_to_node() returns NUMA_NO_NODE, causing uncore_device_to_die()to return -1 for all PCI devices. As a result,spr_update_device_location(), used on Intel SPR and EMR, ignores thecorresponding PMON units and does not add them to the RB tree.Fix this by using uncore_pcibus_to_dieid(), which retrieves topologyfrom the UBOX GIDNIDMAP register and works regardless of whether NUMAis enabled in Linux. This requires snbep_pci2phy_map_init() to beadded in spr_uncore_pci_init().Keep uncore_device_to_die() only for the nr_node_ids > 8 case, whereNUMA is expected to be enabled.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: fix use of uninitialized rtp_addr in process_sdpprocess_sdp() declares union nf_inet_addr rtp_addr on the stack andpasses it to the nf_nat_sip sdp_session hook after walking the SDPmedia descriptions. 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.

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.

CVE-2026-31415 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.4

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:ipv6: avoid overflows in ip6_datagram_send_ctl()Yiming Qian reported : I believe I found a locally triggerable kernel bug in the IPv6 sendmsg ancillary-data path that can panic the kernel via `skb_under_panic()` (local DoS). The core issue is a mismatch between: - a 16-bit length accumulator (`struct ipv6_txoptions::opt_flen`, type `__u16`) and - a pointer to the *last* provided destination-options header (`opt->dst1opt`) when multiple `IPV6_DSTOPTS` control messages (cmsgs) are provided. - `include/net/ipv6.h`: - `struct ipv6_txoptions::opt_flen` is `__u16` (wrap possible). (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.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:seg6: separate dst_cache for input and output paths in seg6 lwtunnelThe seg6 lwtunnel uses a single dst_cache per encap route, sharedbetween seg6_input_core() and seg6_output_core(). These two pathscan perform the post-encap SID lookup in different routing contexts(e.g., ip rules matching on the ingress interface, or VRF tableseparation). Whichever path runs first populates the cache, and theother reuses it blindly, bypassing its own lookup.Fix this by splitting the cache into cache_input and cache_output,so each path maintains its own cached dst independently.

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:btrfs: reserve enough transaction items for qgroup ioctlsCurrently our qgroup ioctls don't reserve any space, they just do atransaction join, which does not reserve any space, neither for the quotatree updates nor for the delayed refs generated when updating the quotatree. The quota root uses the global block reserve, which is fine most ofthe time since we don't expect a lot of updates to the quota root, or tobe too close to -ENOSPC such that other critical metadata updates need toresort to the global reserve.However this is not optimal, as not reserving proper space may result in atransaction abort due to not reserving space for delayed refs and thenabusing the use of the global block reserve.For example, the following reproducer (which is unlikely to model anyreal world use case, but just to illustrate the problem), triggers such atransaction abort due to -ENOSPC when running delayed refs: $ cat test.sh #!/bin/bash DEV=/dev/nullb0 MNT=/mnt/nullb0 umount $DEV &> /dev/null # Limit device to 1G so that it's much faster to reproduce the issue. mkfs.btrfs -f -b 1G $DEV mount -o commit=600 $DEV $MNT fallocate -l 800M $MNT/filler btrfs quota enable $MNT for ((i = 1; i <= 400000; i++)); do btrfs qgroup create 1/$i $MNT done umount $MNTWhen running this, we can see in dmesg/syslog that a transaction aborthappened: [436.490] BTRFS error (device nullb0): failed to run delayed ref for logical 30408704 num_bytes 16384 type 176 action 1 ref_mod 1: -28 [436.493] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [436.494] BTRFS: Transaction aborted (error -28) [436.495] WARNING: fs/btrfs/extent-tree.c:2247 at btrfs_run_delayed_refs+0xd9/0x110 [btrfs], CPU#4: umount/2495372 [436.497] Modules linked in: btrfs loop (...)

Description: Vim is an open source, command line text editor. Prior to version 9.2.0435, an OS command injection vulnerability exists in Vim's :find command-line completion. When the path option contains backtick-enclosed shell commands, those commands are executed during file name completion. Because the path option lacks the P_SECURE flag, it can be set from a modeline, allowing an attacker who controls the contents of a file to execute arbitrary shell commands when the user opens that file in Vim and triggers :find completion. This issue has been patched in version 9.2.0435.

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-2026-43424 Severity: Moderate CVSS3 score: 4.2

Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:usb: gadget: f_tcm: Fix NULL pointer dereferences in nexus handlingThe `tpg->tpg_nexus` pointer in the USB Target driver is dynamicallymanaged and tied to userspace configuration via ConfigFS. It can beNULL if the USB host sends requests before the nexus is fullyestablished or immediately after it is dropped.Currently, functions like `bot_submit_command()` and the datatransfer paths retrieve `tv_nexus = tpg->tpg_nexus` and immediatelydereference `tv_nexus->tvn_se_sess` without any validation. If amalicious or misconfigured USB host sends a BOT (Bulk-Only Transport)command during this race window, it triggers a NULL pointerdereference, leading to a kernel panic (local DoS).This exposes an inconsistent API usage within the module, as peerfunctions like `usbg_submit_command()` and `bot_send_bad_response()`correctly implement a NULL check for `tv_nexus` before proceeding.Fix this by bringing consistency to the nexus handling. Add themissing `if (!tv_nexus)` checks to the vulnerable BOT command andrequest processing paths, aborting the command gracefully with anerror instead of crashing the system.

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]

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.

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.

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.
