Local privilege-relevant out-of-bounds kernel write in the Linux kernel's SCTP subsystem lets an unprivileged local user corrupt kernel heap memory by exploiting a time-of-check/time-of-use (TOCTOU) gap in the SCTP diagnostic dump path (sctp_diag_dump → sctp_for_each_endpoint → sctp_ep_dump), which runs without holding the socket lock. Because the address list can grow between buffer allocation and the subsequent write, an attacker who races the dump against concurrent address additions can force a write past the allocated bounds, yielding potential memory corruption (CVSS 7.8, C/I/A High). There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is low (0.21%, 12th percentile), consistent with a race-dependent local flaw rather than a mass-exploited network bug.
Use-after-free in the Linux kernel's SMB client (cifs) cached-directory handling lets a race between find_or_create_cached_dir() and smb2_close_cached_fid() free a cfid object while a new reference is being taken, corrupting kernel memory on a host mounting an SMB/CIFS share. The flaw is a reference-counting gap fixed by switching to kref_put_lock() so cfid_release() runs under cfid_list_lock. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is low (0.20%, 11th percentile), and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: virt/coco/sev-guest: Double-buffer messages The encryption algorithms read and write directly to shared unencrypted memory, which may leak information as well as permit the host to tamper with the message integrity. Instead, copy whole messages in or out as needed before doing any computation on them.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: regmap-irq: Fix out-of-bounds access when allocating config buffers When allocating the 2D array for handling IRQ type registers in regmap_add_irq_chip_fwnode(), the intent is to allocate a matrix with num_config_bases rows and num_config_regs columns. This is currently handled by allocating a buffer to hold a pointer for each row (i.e. num_config_bases). After that, the logic attempts to allocate the memory required to hold the register configuration for each row. However, instead of doing this allocation for each row (i.e. num_config_bases allocations), the logic erroneously does this allocation num_config_regs number of times. This scenario can lead to out-of-bounds accesses when num_config_regs is greater than num_config_bases. Fix this by updating the terminating condition of the loop that allocates the memory for holding the register configuration to allocate memory only for each row in the matrix. Amit Pundir reported a crash that was occurring on his db845c device due to memory corruption (see "Closes" tag for Amit's report). The KASAN report below helped narrow it down to this issue: [ 14.033877][ T1] ================================================================== [ 14.042507][ T1] BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in regmap_add_irq_chip_fwnode+0x594/0x1364 [ 14.050796][ T1] Write of size 8 at addr 06ffff8081021850 by task init/1 [ 14.242004][ T1] The buggy address belongs to the object at ffffff8081021850 [ 14.242004][ T1] which belongs to the cache kmalloc-8 of size 8 [ 14.255669][ T1] The buggy address is located 0 bytes inside of [ 14.255669][ T1] 8-byte region [ffffff8081021850, ffffff8081021858)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: hidraw: fix data race on device refcount The hidraw_open() function increments the hidraw device reference counter. The counter has no dedicated synchronization mechanism, resulting in a potential data race when concurrently opening a device. The race is a regression introduced by commit 8590222e4b02 ("HID: hidraw: Replace hidraw device table mutex with a rwsem"). While minors_rwsem is intended to protect the hidraw_table itself, by instead acquiring the lock for writing, the reference counter is also protected. This is symmetrical to hidraw_release().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: spi: atmel-quadspi: Free resources even if runtime resume failed in .remove() An early error exit in atmel_qspi_remove() doesn't prevent the device unbind. So this results in an spi controller with an unbound parent and unmapped register space (because devm_ioremap_resource() is undone). So using the remaining spi controller probably results in an oops. Instead unregister the controller unconditionally and only skip hardware access and clk disable. Also add a warning about resume failing and return zero unconditionally. The latter has the only effect to suppress a less helpful error message by the spi core.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: irqchip/irq-mvebu-gicp: Fix refcount leak in mvebu_gicp_probe of_irq_find_parent() returns a node pointer with refcount incremented, We should use of_node_put() on it when not needed anymore. Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: VMX: Fix crash due to uninitialized current_vmcs KVM enables 'Enlightened VMCS' and 'Enlightened MSR Bitmap' when running as a nested hypervisor on top of Hyper-V. When MSR bitmap is updated, evmcs_touch_msr_bitmap function uses current_vmcs per-cpu variable to mark that the msr bitmap was changed. vmx_vcpu_create() modifies the msr bitmap via vmx_disable_intercept_for_msr -> vmx_msr_bitmap_l01_changed which in the end calls this function. The function checks for current_vmcs if it is null but the check is insufficient because current_vmcs is not initialized. Because of this, the code might incorrectly write to the structure pointed by current_vmcs value left by another task. Preemption is not disabled, the current task can be preempted and moved to another CPU while current_vmcs is accessed multiple times from evmcs_touch_msr_bitmap() which leads to crash. The manipulation of MSR bitmaps by callers happens only for vmcs01 so the solution is to use vmx->vmcs01.vmcs instead of current_vmcs.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: ptdma: check for null desc before calling pt_cmd_callback Resolves a panic that can occur on AMD systems, typically during host shutdown, after the PTDMA driver had been exercised. The issue was the pt_issue_pending() function is mistakenly assuming that there will be at least one descriptor in the Submitted queue when the function is called. However, it is possible that both the Submitted and Issued queues could be empty, which could result in pt_cmd_callback() being mistakenly called with a NULL pointer. Ref: Bugzilla Bug 216856.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: lpfc: Fix ioremap issues in lpfc_sli4_pci_mem_setup() When if_type equals zero and pci_resource_start(pdev, PCI_64BIT_BAR4) returns false, drbl_regs_memmap_p is not remapped. This passes a NULL pointer to iounmap(), which can trigger a WARN() on certain arches. When if_type equals six and pci_resource_start(pdev, PCI_64BIT_BAR4) returns true, drbl_regs_memmap_p may has been remapped and ctrl_regs_memmap_p is not remapped. This is a resource leak and passes a NULL pointer to iounmap(). To fix these issues, we need to add null checks before iounmap(), and change some goto labels.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: fix mapping to non-allocated address [Why] There is an issue mapping non-allocated location of memory. It would allocate gpio registers from an array out of bounds. [How] Patch correct numbers of bounds for using.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: deal with integer overflows in kmalloc_reserve() Blamed commit changed: ptr = kmalloc(size); if (ptr) size = ksize(ptr); size = kmalloc_size_roundup(size); ptr = kmalloc(size); This allowed various crash as reported by syzbot [1] and Kyle Zeng. Problem is that if @size is bigger than 0x80000001, kmalloc_size_roundup(size) returns 2^32. kmalloc_reserve() uses a 32bit variable (obj_size), so 2^32 is truncated to 0. kmalloc(0) returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR which is not handled by skb allocations. Following trace can be triggered if a netdev->mtu is set close to 0x7fffffff We might in the future limit netdev->mtu to more sensible limit (like KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE). This patch is based on a syzbot report, and also a report and tentative fix from Kyle Zeng.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/vfio-ap: fix memory leak in vfio_ap device driver The device release callback function invoked to release the matrix device uses the dev_get_drvdata(device *dev) function to retrieve the pointer to the vfio_matrix_dev object in order to free its storage. The problem is, this object is not stored as drvdata with the device; since the kfree function will accept a NULL pointer, the memory for the vfio_matrix_dev object is never freed. Since the device being released is contained within the vfio_matrix_dev object, the container_of macro will be used to retrieve its pointer.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: um: vector: Fix memory leak in vector_config If the return value of the uml_parse_vector_ifspec function is NULL, we should call kfree(params) to prevent memory leak.

Fix it by avoiding READ_ONCE() in read_instrumented_memory(), and simply forcing the compiler to do the required access by casting to the appropriate volatile type. In terms of generated code this currently only affects architectures that do not use the default READ_ONCE() implementation. The only downside is that we are not guaranteed atomicity of the access itself, although on most architectures a plain load up to machine word size should still be atomic (a fact the default READ_ONCE() still relies on itself).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath11k: fix monitor mode bringup crash When the interface is brought up in monitor mode, it leads to NULL pointer dereference crash. This crash happens when the packet type is extracted for a SKB. This extraction which is present in the received msdu delivery path,is not needed for the monitor ring packets since they are all RAW packets. Hence appending the flags with "RX_FLAG_ONLY_MONITOR" to skip that extraction.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: dvb-usb: fix memory leak in dvb_usb_adapter_init() Syzbot reports a memory leak in "dvb_usb_adapter_init()". The leak is due to not accounting for and freeing current iteration's adapter->priv in case of an error. Currently if an error occurs, it will exit before incrementing "num_adapters_initalized", which is used as a reference counter to free all adap->priv in "dvb_usb_adapter_exit()". There are multiple error paths that can exit from before incrementing the counter. Including the error handling paths for "dvb_usb_adapter_stream_init()", "dvb_usb_adapter_dvb_init()" and "dvb_usb_adapter_frontend_init()" within "dvb_usb_adapter_init()". This means that in case of an error in any of these functions the current iteration is not accounted for and the current iteration's adap->priv is not freed. Fix this by freeing the current iteration's adap->priv in the "stream_init_err:" label in the error path. The rest of the (accounted for) adap->priv objects are freed in dvb_usb_adapter_exit() as expected using the num_adapters_initalized variable.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: serial: amba-pl011: avoid SBSA UART accessing DMACR register Chapter "B Generic UART" in "ARM Server Base System Architecture" [1] documentation describes a generic UART interface. Such generic UART does not support DMA. In current code, sbsa_uart_pops and amba_pl011_pops share the same stop_rx operation, which will invoke pl011_dma_rx_stop, leading to an access of the DMACR register. This commit adds a using_rx_dma check in pl011_dma_rx_stop to avoid the access to DMACR register for SBSA UARTs which does not support DMA. When the kernel enables DMA engine with "CONFIG_DMA_ENGINE=y", Linux SBSA PL011 driver will access PL011 DMACR register in some functions. For most real SBSA Pl011 hardware implementations, the DMACR write behaviour will be ignored. So these DMACR operations will not cause obvious problems. But for some virtual SBSA PL011 hardware, like Xen virtual SBSA PL011 (vpl011) device, the behaviour might be different. Xen vpl011 emulation will inject a data abort to guest, when guest is accessing an unimplemented UART register. As Xen VPL011 is SBSA compatible, it will not implement DMACR register. So when Linux SBSA PL011 driver access DMACR register, it will get an unhandled data abort fault and the application will get a segmentation fault: Unhandled fault at 0xffffffc00944d048 Mem abort info: ESR = 0x96000000 EC = 0x25: DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits SET = 0, FnV = 0 EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 FSC = 0x00: ttbr address size fault Data abort info: ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000000 CM = 0, WnR = 0 swapper pgtable: 4k pages, 39-bit VAs, pgdp=0000000020e2e000 [ffffffc00944d048] pgd=100000003ffff803, p4d=100000003ffff803, pud=100000003ffff803, pmd=100000003fffa803, pte=006800009c090f13 Internal error: ttbr address size fault: 96000000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: netsec: fix error handling in netsec_register_mdio() If phy_device_register() fails, phy_device_free() need be called to put refcount, so memory of phy device and device name can be freed in callback function. If get_phy_device() fails, mdiobus_unregister() need be called, or it will cause warning in mdiobus_free() and kobject is leaked.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fpga: prevent integer overflow in dfl_feature_ioctl_set_irq() The "hdr.count * sizeof(s32)" multiplication can overflow on 32 bit systems leading to memory corruption. Use array_size() to fix that.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix potential memory leak in ext4_fc_record_modified_inode() As krealloc may return NULL, in this case 'state->fc_modified_inodes' may not be freed by krealloc, but 'state->fc_modified_inodes' already set NULL. Then will lead to 'state->fc_modified_inodes' memory leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dm: verity-loadpin: Only trust verity targets with enforcement Verity targets can be configured to ignore corrupted data blocks. LoadPin must only trust verity targets that are configured to perform some kind of enforcement when data corruption is detected, like returning an error, restarting the system or triggering a panic.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdkfd: Fix memory leak in kfd_mem_dmamap_userptr() If the number of pages from the userptr BO differs from the SG BO then the allocated memory for the SG table doesn't get freed before returning -EINVAL, which may lead to a memory leak in some error paths. Fix this by checking the number of pages before allocating memory for the SG table.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mmc: meson-gx: fix return value check of mmc_add_host() mmc_add_host() may return error, if we ignore its return value, it will lead two issues: 1. The memory that allocated in mmc_alloc_host() is leaked. 2. In the remove() path, mmc_remove_host() will be called to delete device, but it's not added yet, it will lead a kernel crash because of null-ptr-deref in device_del(). Fix this by checking the return value and goto error path which will call mmc_free_host().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu/powerplay/psm: Fix memory leak in power state init Commit 902bc65de0b3 ("drm/amdgpu/powerplay/psm: return an error in power state init") made the power state init function return early in case of failure to get an entry from the powerplay table, but it missed to clean up the allocated memory for the current power state before returning.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: regulator: core: Use different devices for resource allocation and DT lookup Following by the below discussion, there's the potential UAF issue between regulator and mfd. https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221128143601.1698148-1-yangyingliang@huawei.com/ From the analysis of Yingliang CPU A |CPU B mt6370_probe() | devm_mfd_add_devices() | |mt6370_regulator_probe() | regulator_register() | //allocate init_data and add it to devres | regulator_of_get_init_data() i2c_unregister_device() | device_del() | devres_release_all() | // init_data is freed | release_nodes() | | // using init_data causes UAF | regulator_register() It's common to use mfd core to create child device for the regulator. In order to do the DT lookup for init data, the child that registered the regulator would pass its parent as the parameter. And this causes init data resource allocated to its parent, not itself. The issue happen when parent device is going to release and regulator core is still doing some operation of init data constraint for the regulator of child device. To fix it, this patch expand 'regulator_register' API to use the different devices for init data allocation and DT lookup.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix reference count leak in snr_uncore_mmio_map() pci_get_device() will increase the reference count for the returned pci_dev, so snr_uncore_get_mc_dev() will return a pci_dev with its reference count increased. We need to call pci_dev_put() to decrease the reference count. Let's add the missing pci_dev_put().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md/raid0, raid10: Don't set discard sectors for request queue It should use disk_stack_limits to get a proper max_discard_sectors rather than setting a value by stack drivers. And there is a bug. If all member disks are rotational devices, raid0/raid10 set max_discard_sectors. So the member devices are not ssd/nvme, but raid0/raid10 export the wrong value.

Denial of service in the Linux kernel's NFSD (in-kernel NFSv4 server) allows remote clients to crash the server by sending a GETATTR request that queries the newly-defined time_deleg FATTR4 delegation attributes, for which NFSD previously had no defined handler. The fix makes NFSD return nfserr_inval for such spec-invalid queries (RFC 9754 Section 5) instead of crashing. EPSS is very low (0.03%) and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, so this is a defensive robustness fix rather than an actively exploited issue.
Denial of service in the Linux kernel NFS server (nfsd) allows a crash in nfsd4_read_release() to be triggered while the trace_nfsd_read_done tracepoint is active, as surfaced by the pynfs read.testNoFh conformance test. The flaw affects NFSv4 READ compound processing and results in a kernel crash (availability impact only, no data disclosure or code execution). It has been resolved upstream and shipped across multiple stable series; no public exploit is identified at time of analysis and EPSS exploitation probability is very low (0.05%).
Local privilege escalation and kernel memory corruption in the Linux kernel's framebuffer console (fbcon) subsystem arises from a use-after-free: when a framebuffer device is unregistered, the freed mode list leaves dangling pointers in the global fb_display[] array, which fb_mode_is_equal() later dereferences. A local low-privileged attacker with access to framebuffer devices (/dev/fbN) can trigger the freed-memory read/write via FBIOPUT_CON2FBMAP and mode-deletion ioctls, enabling denial of service or potential arbitrary kernel code execution. The flaw was found via syzkaller (KASAN slab-use-after-free), it carries EPSS 0.04% (11th percentile), it is not in CISA KEV, and no public exploit is identified - though detailed reproduction steps are published in the commit message.
Out-of-bounds read in the Linux kernel's framebuffer console (fbdev) bitblit code affects the built-in font rendering path, where bit_putcs_aligned() and bit_putcs_unaligned() masked the character value with 0xff/0x1ff and used it as a glyph index without validating it against the actual font's glyph count. A local low-privileged attacker able to drive framebuffer console output can trigger a global out-of-bounds read past the built-in font array, leaking adjacent kernel memory or crashing the system. Discovered by syzbot; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and with an EPSS of 0.04% real-world exploitation is unlikely to be widespread.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: brcmfmac: fix crash while sending Action Frames in standalone AP Mode Currently, whenever there is a need to transmit an Action frame, the brcmfmac driver always uses the P2P vif to send the "actframe" IOVAR to firmware. The P2P interfaces were available when wpa_supplicant is managing the wlan interface. However, the P2P interfaces are not created/initialized when only hostapd is managing the wlan interface. And if hostapd receives an ANQP Query REQ Action frame even from an un-associated STA, the brcmfmac driver tries to use an uninitialized P2P vif pointer for sending the IOVAR to firmware. This NULL pointer dereferencing triggers a driver crash.

This way, even if P2P vif is not available, the IOVAR is sent to firmware on AP vif and the ANQP Query RESP Action frame is transmitted without crashing the driver. Move init_completion() for "send_af_done" from brcmf_p2p_create_p2pdev() to brcmf_p2p_attach(). Because the former function would not get executed when only hostapd is managing wlan interface, and it is not safe to do reinit_completion() later in brcmf_p2p_tx_action_frame(), without any prior init_completion(). And in the brcmf_p2p_tx_action_frame() function, the condition check for P2P Presence response frame is not needed, since the wpa_supplicant is properly sending the P2P Presense Response frame on the P2P-GO vif instead of the P2P-Device vif.

Use-after-free in the Linux kernel's CIFS/SMB client (cifs module) affects the smb2_query_info_compound() function, where a cached fid (cfid) freed during a first attempt is not reset to NULL before a replay, so subsequent cleanup dereferences a stale pointer. Reachable through ordinary filesystem operations such as statfs() against an SMB mount, it manifests as a refcount underflow and use-after-free that most plausibly causes kernel memory corruption and denial of service on hosts with CIFS mounts. This is no public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS is very low (0.03%, 7th percentile) and it is not in CISA KEV, though a vendor patch and Ubuntu USN are available.
Local privilege escalation and kernel memory corruption in the Linux kernel's BPF ring buffer subsystem allows a low-privileged user capable of loading BPF programs to trigger a use-after-free. A race exists where irq_work queued in bpf_ringbuf_commit() can execute after the ring buffer is freed, letting the irq_work handler access freed memory - a bug found by syzbot via a BPF program attached to sched_switch. The fix adds irq_work_sync(&rb->work) before freeing the buffer. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.05%), but kernel UAF flaws are historically weaponizable for local privilege escalation.
A use-after-free condition in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth HCI command-synchronization layer (hci_sync) lets a race between hci_cmd_sync_dequeue_once() and hci_cmd_sync_work() delete the same list entry twice, corrupting kernel memory. It affects the mainline Linux kernel Bluetooth stack up to the fixed stable releases (6.1.159, 6.6.117, 6.12.58, 6.17.8) and is fixed upstream. There is no public exploit identified and EPSS is very low (0.04%), but the NVD-scored CVSS of 8.8 reflects the high-impact memory-corruption potential (denial of service and possible privilege escalation) if the race is won.
Kernel memory corruption in the Linux kernel SLIMbus regmap layer (regmap-slimbus) occurs because __devm_regmap_init_slimbus() and __regmap_init_slimbus() passed an incorrect bus_context pointer, causing an invalid-address dereference during SLIMbus register I/O. On affected Qualcomm-based platforms (e.g. wcd934x audio codec on SDM845 boards), a local user triggering audio playback crashes the kernel and may corrupt or disclose memory. This is a resolved regression exposed by commit 4e65bda8273c; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS probability is negligible (0.05%).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/mediatek: Fix device use-after-free on unbind A recent change fixed device reference leaks when looking up drm platform device driver data during bind() but failed to remove a partial fix which had been added by commit 80805b62ea5b ("drm/mediatek: Fix kobject put for component sub-drivers"). This results in a reference imbalance on component bind() failures and on unbind() which could lead to a user-after-free. Make sure to only drop the references after retrieving the driver data by effectively reverting the previous partial fix. Note that holding a reference to a device does not prevent its driver data from going away so there is no point in keeping the reference.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_fs: Fix epfile null pointer access after ep enable. A race condition occurs when ffs_func_eps_enable() runs concurrently with ffs_data_reset(). The ffs_data_clear() called in ffs_data_reset() sets ffs->epfiles to NULL before resetting ffs->eps_count to 0, leading to a NULL pointer dereference when accessing epfile->ep in ffs_func_eps_enable() after successful usb_ep_enable(). The ffs->epfiles pointer is set to NULL in both ffs_data_clear() and ffs_data_close() functions, and its modification is protected by the spinlock ffs->eps_lock. And the whole ffs_func_eps_enable() function is also protected by ffs->eps_lock. Thus, add NULL pointer handling for ffs->epfiles in the ffs_func_eps_enable() function to fix issues
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: cdns3: gadget: Use-after-free during failed initialization and exit of cdnsp gadget In the __cdnsp_gadget_init() and cdnsp_gadget_exit() functions, the gadget structure (pdev->gadget) was freed before its endpoints. The endpoints are linked via the ep_list in the gadget structure. Freeing the gadget first leaves dangling pointers in the endpoint list. When the endpoints are subsequently freed, this results in a use-after-free. Fix: By separating the usb_del_gadget_udc() operation into distinct "del" and "put" steps, cdnsp_gadget_free_endpoints() can be executed prior to the final release of the gadget structure with usb_put_gadget(). A patch similar to bb9c74a5bd14("usb: dwc3: gadget: Free gadget structure only after freeing endpoints").
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ntfs3: pretend $Extend records as regular files Since commit af153bb63a33 ("vfs: catch invalid modes in may_open()") requires any inode be one of S_IFDIR/S_IFLNK/S_IFREG/S_IFCHR/S_IFBLK/ S_IFIFO/S_IFSOCK type, use S_IFREG for $Extend records.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: jfs: Verify inode mode when loading from disk The inode mode loaded from corrupted disk can be invalid. Do like what commit 0a9e74051313 ("isofs: Verify inode mode when loading from disk") does.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: accel/habanalabs: support mapping cb with vmalloc-backed coherent memory When IOMMU is enabled, dma_alloc_coherent() with GFP_USER may return addresses from the vmalloc range. If such an address is mapped without VM_MIXEDMAP, vm_insert_page() will trigger a BUG_ON due to the VM_PFNMAP restriction. Fix this by checking for vmalloc addresses and setting VM_MIXEDMAP in the VMA before mapping. This ensures safe mapping and avoids kernel crashes. The memory is still driver-allocated and cannot be accessed directly by userspace.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: amd/amdkfd: resolve a race in amdgpu_amdkfd_device_fini_sw There is race in amdgpu_amdkfd_device_fini_sw and interrupt. if amdgpu_amdkfd_device_fini_sw run in b/w kfd_cleanup_nodes and kfree(kfd), and KGD interrupt generated. kernel panic log: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000098 amdgpu 0000:c8:00.0: amdgpu: Requesting 4 partitions through PSP PGD d78c68067 P4D d78c68067 kfd kfd: amdgpu: Allocated 3969056 bytes on gart PUD 1465b8067 PMD @ Oops: @002 [#1] SMP NOPTI kfd kfd: amdgpu: Total number of KFD nodes to be created: 4 CPU: 115 PID: @ Comm: swapper/115 Kdump: loaded Tainted: G S W OE K RIP: 0010:_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x12/0x40 Code: 89 e@ 41 5c c3 cc cc cc cc 66 66 2e Of 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 OF 1f 40 00 Of 1f 44% 00 00 41 54 9c 41 5c fa 31 cO ba 01 00 00 00 <fO> OF b1 17 75 Ba 4c 89 e@ 41 Sc 89 c6 e8 07 38 5d RSP: 0018: ffffc90@1a6b0e28 EFLAGS: 00010046 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000000018 0000000000000001 RSI: ffff8883bb623e00 RDI: 0000000000000098 ffff8883bb000000 RO8: ffff888100055020 ROO: ffff888100055020 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0900000000000002 ffff888F2b97da0@ R14: @000000000000098 R15: ffff8883babdfo00 CS: 010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CRO: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000000098 CR3: 0000000e7cae2006 CR4: 0000000002770ce0 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffeO7FO DR7: 0000000000000400 PKRU: 55555554 Call Trace: <IRQ> kgd2kfd_interrupt+@x6b/0x1f@ [amdgpu] ? amdgpu_fence_process+0xa4/0x150 [amdgpu] kfd kfd: amdgpu: Node: 0, interrupt_bitmap: 3 YcpxFl Rant tErace amdgpu_irq_dispatch+0x165/0x210 [amdgpu] amdgpu_ih_process+0x80/0x100 [amdgpu] amdgpu: Virtual CRAT table created for GPU amdgpu_irq_handler+0x1f/@x60 [amdgpu] __handle_irq_event_percpu+0x3d/0x170 amdgpu: Topology: Add dGPU node [0x74a2:0x1002] handle_irq_event+0x5a/@xcO handle_edge_irq+0x93/0x240 kfd kfd: amdgpu: KFD node 1 partition @ size 49148M asm_call_irq_on_stack+0xf/@x20 </IRQ> common_interrupt+0xb3/0x130 asm_common_interrupt+0x1le/0x40 5.10.134-010.a1i5000.a18.x86_64 #1
Memory corruption (use-after-free) in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth SCO (Synchronous Connection-Oriented) socket subsystem allows a local attacker with Bluetooth socket access to trigger a slab use-after-free during connection teardown. The flaw affects net/bluetooth/sco.c, where sco_conn_free/sco_conn_put in the HCI command-sync workqueue can operate on a sco_conn object whose backing socket was already freed by a concurrent sco_sock_release, leading to a kernel write to freed memory. Rated CVSS 8.0 with a fix already merged upstream and shipped in stable kernels; no public exploit is identified and EPSS is very low (0.03%).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: bcsp: receive data only if registered Currently, bcsp_recv() can be called even when the BCSP protocol has not been registered. This leads to a NULL pointer dereference, as shown in the following stack trace: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000108-0x000000000000010f] RIP: 0010:bcsp_recv+0x13d/0x1740 drivers/bluetooth/hci_bcsp.c:590 Call Trace: <TASK> hci_uart_tty_receive+0x194/0x220 drivers/bluetooth/hci_ldisc.c:627 tiocsti+0x23c/0x2c0 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:2290 tty_ioctl+0x626/0xde0 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:2706 vfs_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:51 [inline] __do_sys_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:907 [inline] __se_sys_ioctl+0xfc/0x170 fs/ioctl.c:893 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:63 [inline] do_syscall_64+0xfa/0x3b0 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f To prevent this, ensure that the HCI_UART_REGISTERED flag is set before processing received data. If the protocol is not registered, return -EUNATCH.
Filesystem corruption in the Linux kernel's exFAT driver (exfat-fs) allows a local attacker who can mount a crafted exFAT image to overwrite in-use data structures and reallocate live clusters. Because the allocation bitmap's own cluster-allocation bits are never validated on mount, a malicious image can point the bitmap at cluster 6, which mkdir then zeroes - deleting existing directory entries and corrupting the bitmap itself, enabling further reallocation of already-allocated clusters. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.03%), consistent with a local physical/mount-dependent flaw rather than a mass-exploited network bug.
Local denial-of-service and filesystem corruption in the Linux kernel's OrangeFS driver stems from a broken loop in the xattr_key() helper, which tests the pointer instead of the dereferenced character and therefore walks memory indefinitely instead of stopping at a C-string terminator. On systems mounting OrangeFS, an unprivileged local user issuing extended-attribute operations (setfattr/getfattr) can trigger a kernel oops, hung processes, and corrupted OrangeFS files; a secondary hash_add() misuse also leaks kernel memory on every security.capability getattr, driving the system toward OOM. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.07%, 20th percentile), consistent with a niche, non-remote issue.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: 9p/trans_fd: p9_fd_request: kick rx thread if EPOLLIN p9_read_work() doesn't set Rworksched and doesn't do schedule_work(m->rq) if list_empty(&m->req_list). However, if the pipe is full, we need to read more data and this used to work prior to commit aaec5a95d59615 ("pipe_read: don't wake up the writer if the pipe is still full"). p9_read_work() does p9_fd_read() -> ... -> anon_pipe_read() which (before the commit above) triggered the unnecessary wakeup. This wakeup calls p9_pollwake() which kicks p9_poll_workfn() -> p9_poll_mux(), p9_poll_mux() will notice EPOLLIN and schedule_work(&m->rq). This no longer happens after the optimization above, change p9_fd_request() to use p9_poll_mux() instead of only checking for EPOLLOUT.
Out-of-bounds memory corruption in the Linux kernel's fbdev console text-rendering path (bit_putcs) allows a local, low-privileged user to trigger vmalloc-out-of-bounds writes when text is rendered near screen edges, corrupting kernel heap memory adjacent to the framebuffer. The flaw stems from a character-count/buffer-size mismatch after horizontal clipping, and with a CVSS of 7.8 (local, low complexity, C:H/I:H/A:H) it can lead to memory corruption and potential privilege escalation or denial of service. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.05%, 16th percentile), consistent with a non-remote, config- and hardware-dependent kernel bug rather than a mass-exploitation target.
Use-after-free in the Linux kernel btrfs filesystem allows a local user to crash the system during unmount of an error-flagged filesystem, particularly when RAID56 is used for metadata. When btrfs marks a filesystem as errored, dirty tree-block folios linger in the btree inode page cache and are written back during close_ctree() after the worker threads have already been stopped and freed, causing queue_work() on a destroyed rmw_workers queue and a use-after-free. CVSS is 7.8 (High); this is a local privilege/DoS issue with no public exploit identified at time of analysis and a very low EPSS of 0.03%.
Local privilege escalation via memory corruption in the Linux kernel's videobuf2 (vb2) media framework allows a local user with access to a V4L2 video device to corrupt internal queue state by invoking the VIDIOC_REMOVE_BUFS ioctl while legacy read/write fileio mode is active. The vb2_ioctl_remove_bufs() path manipulates the queue's internal buffer list and can overwrite pointers the fileio access mode still relies on, leading to high-impact confidentiality, integrity, and availability effects (CVSS 7.8, AV:L). No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; EPSS is negligible (0.03%) and the flaw is not in CISA KEV.
Uninitialized memory read in the Linux kernel Bluetooth HCI event layer allows a malicious or malfunctioning Bluetooth controller to leak a byte of kernel memory and induce undefined command-completion handling. The flaw lives in hci_cmd_complete_evt(), where an unknown Command Complete opcode causes the code to read skb->data[0] as a return status even after all parameter bytes were already pulled, leaving the buffer empty. It is a fixed upstream kernel bug (CWE-908-class use of uninitialized resource) with no public exploit identified at time of analysis and a very low EPSS score of 0.04%.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gve: Implement gettimex64 with -EOPNOTSUPP gve implemented a ptp_clock for sole use of do_aux_work at this time. ptp_clock_gettime() and ptp_sys_offset() assume every ptp_clock has implemented either gettimex64 or gettime64. Stub gettimex64 and return -EOPNOTSUPP to prevent NULL dereferencing.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gve: Implement settime64 with -EOPNOTSUPP ptp_clock_settime() assumes every ptp_clock has implemented settime64(). Stub it with -EOPNOTSUPP to prevent a NULL dereference.
Local privilege-level attackers can trigger a use-after-free in the Linux kernel's network bridge (net/bridge) MST implementation when a bridge port is deleted concurrently with FDB learning. The flaw stems from Multiple Spanning Tree (MST) mode bypassing the port's disabled state check, allowing FDB entries to be learned while a port is being torn down. EPSS is low (0.04%, 11th percentile) and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis; the issue was found by syzbot fuzzing rather than in-the-wild exploitation.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: platform/x86: int3472: Fix double free of GPIO device during unregister regulator_unregister() already frees the associated GPIO device. On ThinkPad X9 (Lunar Lake), this causes a double free issue that leads to random failures when other drivers (typically Intel THC) attempt to allocate interrupts. The root cause is that the reference count of the pinctrl_intel_platform module unexpectedly drops to zero when this driver defers its probe. This behavior can also be reproduced by unloading the module directly. Fix the issue by removing the redundant release of the GPIO device during regulator unregistration.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fscrypt: fix left shift underflow when inode->i_blkbits > PAGE_SHIFT When simulating an nvme device on qemu with both logical_block_size and physical_block_size set to 8 KiB, an error trace appears during partition table reading at boot time. The issue is caused by inode->i_blkbits being larger than PAGE_SHIFT, which leads to a left shift of -1 and triggering a UBSAN warning.

File I/O does not trigger this problem because for filesystems that do not support the FS_LBS feature, sb_set_blocksize() prevents sb->s_blocksize_bits from being larger than PAGE_SHIFT. During inode allocation, alloc_inode()->inode_init_always() assigns inode->i_blkbits from sb->s_blocksize_bits.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: MGMT: Fix OOB access in parse_adv_monitor_pattern() In the parse_adv_monitor_pattern() function, the value of the 'length' variable is currently limited to HCI_MAX_EXT_AD_LENGTH(251). The size of the 'value' array in the mgmt_adv_pattern structure is 31. If the value of 'pattern[i].length' is set in the user space and exceeds 31, the 'patterns[i].value' array can be accessed out of bound when copied. Increasing the size of the 'value' array in the 'mgmt_adv_pattern' structure will break the userspace. Considering this, and to avoid OOB access revert the limits for 'offset' and 'length' back to the value of HCI_MAX_AD_LENGTH. Found by InfoTeCS on behalf of Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommufd: Don't overflow during division for dirty tracking If pgshift is 63 then BITS_PER_TYPE(*bitmap->bitmap) * pgsize will overflow to 0 and this triggers divide by 0. In this case the index should just be 0, so reorganize things to divide by shift and avoid hitting any overflows.
Denial-of-service (and potential out-of-bounds read) in the Linux kernel's virtio-net driver lets a malicious or compromised virtualization host crash guest VMs by announcing a receive buffer length larger than the guest allocated for 'big packets' mode. The flaw stems from an incomplete length check introduced when commit 4959aebba8c0 changed big-packet buffer sizing from a fixed MAX_SKB_FRAGS * PAGE_SIZE to an MTU-dependent value, leaving the receive-path validation stale. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.04%), consistent with a host-to-guest condition rather than internet-facing mass exploitation.
Local privilege escalation and memory corruption in the Linux kernel's io_uring subsystem arises from an integer truncation flaw in io_estimate_bvec_size(), where the calculated number of registered-buffer segments is truncated into an int and can overflow values used in later allocation and copy logic. Affected are Linux kernel builds carrying the vulnerable io_uring registered buffer vector code (6.15 through the fixed 6.17.8/6.18 line); a local user able to submit io_uring operations can trigger heap corruption with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.03%), consistent with a bug reported and fixed upstream rather than one under active exploitation.
Memory corruption in the Linux kernel AF_XDP (xsk) zero-copy transmit path allows a local user with an AF_XDP socket to trigger a NULL pointer dereference and fatal kernel panic. The regression, introduced by commit 30f241fcf52a, misused the skb control block to store the completion-queue descriptor count; because the control block is reused by other subsystems (e.g. IP receive) after transmit, xsk_destruct_skb dereferences corrupted data. EPSS is 0.03% and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis; the practical outcome is denial of service rather than the full CIA compromise implied by the raw 7.8 CVSS.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: hide VRAM sysfs attributes on GPUs without VRAM Otherwise accessing them can cause a crash.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: Fix NULL pointer dereference in VRAM logic for APU devices Previously, APU platforms (and other scenarios with uninitialized VRAM managers) triggered a NULL pointer dereference in `ttm_resource_manager_usage()`. The root cause is not that the `struct ttm_resource_manager *man` pointer itself is NULL, but that `man->bdev` (the backing device pointer within the manager) remains uninitialized (NULL) on APUs-since APUs lack dedicated VRAM and do not fully set up VRAM manager structures. When `ttm_resource_manager_usage()` attempts to acquire `man->bdev->lru_lock`, it dereferences the NULL `man->bdev`, leading to a kernel OOPS. 1. **amdgpu_cs.c**: Extend the existing bandwidth control check in `amdgpu_cs_get_threshold_for_moves()` to include a check for `ttm_resource_manager_used()`. If the manager is not used (uninitialized `bdev`), return 0 for migration thresholds immediately-skipping VRAM-specific logic that would trigger the NULL dereference. 2. **amdgpu_kms.c**: Update the `AMDGPU_INFO_VRAM_USAGE` ioctl and memory info reporting to use a conditional: if the manager is used, return the real VRAM usage; otherwise, return 0. This avoids accessing `man->bdev` when it is NULL. 3. **amdgpu_virt.c**: Modify the vf2pf (virtual function to physical function) data write path. Use `ttm_resource_manager_used()` to check validity: if the manager is usable, calculate `fb_usage` from VRAM usage; otherwise, set `fb_usage` to 0 (APUs have no discrete framebuffer to report). This approach is more robust than APU-specific checks because it: - Works for all scenarios where the VRAM manager is uninitialized (not just APUs), - Aligns with TTM's design by using its native helper function, - Preserves correct behavior for discrete GPUs (which have fully initialized `man->bdev` and pass the `ttm_resource_manager_used()` check). v4: use ttm_resource_manager_used(&adev->mman.vram_mgr.manager) instead of checking the adev->gmc.is_app_apu flag (Christian)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: exfat: fix improper check of dentry.stream.valid_size We found an infinite loop bug in the exFAT file system that can lead to a Denial-of-Service (DoS) condition. When a dentry in an exFAT filesystem is malformed, the following system calls - SYS_openat, SYS_ftruncate, and SYS_pwrite64 - can cause the kernel to hang. Root cause analysis shows that the size validation code in exfat_find() does not check whether dentry.stream.valid_size is negative. As a result, the system calls mentioned above can succeed and eventually trigger the DoS issue. This patch adds a check for negative dentry.stream.valid_size to prevent this vulnerability.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb/server: fix possible memory leak in smb2_read() Memory leak occurs when ksmbd_vfs_read() fails. Fix this by adding the missing kvfree().
Denial of service in the Linux kernel's in-kernel SMB3 server (ksmbd) arises from a reference-count leak in smb2_sess_setup() that is not released along the session-reconnect path. Remote attackers reaching an exposed ksmbd service can repeatedly drive session setups requiring reconnect to leak ksmbd_session references, progressively exhausting kernel memory and impacting availability (CVSS 7.5, A:H only). No public exploit is identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.04%), but vendor-released patches are already shipping across stable branches.
Local privilege-boundary memory corruption in the Linux kernel Bluetooth Management (MGMT) subsystem allows a local low-privileged user to trigger a slab-use-after-free when a Bluetooth HCI device (hdev) is removed while the mesh_send_done timer is still pending. Because the timer was never canceled during hdev teardown, it can fire against freed memory (device_release path), causing a KASAN slab-use-after-free that typically crashes the kernel (denial of service), with a theoretical path to further corruption. EPSS is very low (0.04%, 11th percentile), there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in CISA KEV; a vendor patch is available.
Local privilege escalation and memory corruption in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth btusb USB driver arises from a use-after-free in btusb_disconnect(), where the interface's btusb data is freed by usb_driver_release_interface() and then dereferenced later in the same function. Affected systems run vulnerable stable kernels (5.4/5.10/5.15/6.1/6.6/6.12/6.17 branches and 6.18 pre-release) with a Bluetooth USB adapter; a local attacker able to influence USB device teardown could corrupt kernel slab memory, potentially yielding code execution or a crash. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.05%), so this is a patch-hygiene item rather than an urgent, actively-exploited threat.
Kernel panic (BUG) in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth 6LoWPAN subsystem (net/bluetooth/6lowpan.c) allows an adjacent attacker to crash the host by sending uncompressed IPv6 frames over a Bluetooth 6LoWPAN link. Because the 6lowpan netdev registers header_ops but never reset the MAC/link-local header on the uncompressed IPv6 RX path, delivery to a listener such as an AF_PACKET SOCK_RAW socket triggers a fatal skb_reset_mac_header assertion (kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:212). Tagged as Denial of Service; EPSS is 0.05% (16th percentile), no KEV listing, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Local privilege-relevant out-of-bounds kernel write in the Linux kernel's SCTP subsystem lets an unprivileged local user corrupt kernel heap memory by exploiting a time-of-check/time-of-use (TOCTOU) gap in the SCTP diagnostic dump path (sctp_diag_dump → sctp_for_each_endpoint → sctp_ep_dump), which runs without holding the socket lock. Because the address list can grow between buffer allocation and the subsequent write, an attacker who races the dump against concurrent address additions can force a write past the allocated bounds, yielding potential memory corruption (CVSS 7.8, C/I/A High). There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is low (0.21%, 12th percentile), consistent with a race-dependent local flaw rather than a mass-exploited network bug.
Use-after-free in the Linux kernel's SMB client (cifs) cached-directory handling lets a race between find_or_create_cached_dir() and smb2_close_cached_fid() free a cfid object while a new reference is being taken, corrupting kernel memory on a host mounting an SMB/CIFS share. The flaw is a reference-counting gap fixed by switching to kref_put_lock() so cfid_release() runs under cfid_list_lock. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is low (0.20%, 11th percentile), and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: virt/coco/sev-guest: Double-buffer messages The encryption algorithms read and write directly to shared unencrypted memory, which may leak information as well as permit the host to tamper with the message integrity. Instead, copy whole messages in or out as needed before doing any computation on them.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: regmap-irq: Fix out-of-bounds access when allocating config buffers When allocating the 2D array for handling IRQ type registers in regmap_add_irq_chip_fwnode(), the intent is to allocate a matrix with num_config_bases rows and num_config_regs columns. This is currently handled by allocating a buffer to hold a pointer for each row (i.e. num_config_bases). After that, the logic attempts to allocate the memory required to hold the register configuration for each row. However, instead of doing this allocation for each row (i.e. num_config_bases allocations), the logic erroneously does this allocation num_config_regs number of times. This scenario can lead to out-of-bounds accesses when num_config_regs is greater than num_config_bases. Fix this by updating the terminating condition of the loop that allocates the memory for holding the register configuration to allocate memory only for each row in the matrix. Amit Pundir reported a crash that was occurring on his db845c device due to memory corruption (see "Closes" tag for Amit's report). The KASAN report below helped narrow it down to this issue: [ 14.033877][ T1] ================================================================== [ 14.042507][ T1] BUG: KASAN: invalid-access in regmap_add_irq_chip_fwnode+0x594/0x1364 [ 14.050796][ T1] Write of size 8 at addr 06ffff8081021850 by task init/1 [ 14.242004][ T1] The buggy address belongs to the object at ffffff8081021850 [ 14.242004][ T1] which belongs to the cache kmalloc-8 of size 8 [ 14.255669][ T1] The buggy address is located 0 bytes inside of [ 14.255669][ T1] 8-byte region [ffffff8081021850, ffffff8081021858)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: hidraw: fix data race on device refcount The hidraw_open() function increments the hidraw device reference counter. The counter has no dedicated synchronization mechanism, resulting in a potential data race when concurrently opening a device. The race is a regression introduced by commit 8590222e4b02 ("HID: hidraw: Replace hidraw device table mutex with a rwsem"). While minors_rwsem is intended to protect the hidraw_table itself, by instead acquiring the lock for writing, the reference counter is also protected. This is symmetrical to hidraw_release().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: spi: atmel-quadspi: Free resources even if runtime resume failed in .remove() An early error exit in atmel_qspi_remove() doesn't prevent the device unbind. So this results in an spi controller with an unbound parent and unmapped register space (because devm_ioremap_resource() is undone). So using the remaining spi controller probably results in an oops. Instead unregister the controller unconditionally and only skip hardware access and clk disable. Also add a warning about resume failing and return zero unconditionally. The latter has the only effect to suppress a less helpful error message by the spi core.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: irqchip/irq-mvebu-gicp: Fix refcount leak in mvebu_gicp_probe of_irq_find_parent() returns a node pointer with refcount incremented, We should use of_node_put() on it when not needed anymore. Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: VMX: Fix crash due to uninitialized current_vmcs KVM enables 'Enlightened VMCS' and 'Enlightened MSR Bitmap' when running as a nested hypervisor on top of Hyper-V. When MSR bitmap is updated, evmcs_touch_msr_bitmap function uses current_vmcs per-cpu variable to mark that the msr bitmap was changed. vmx_vcpu_create() modifies the msr bitmap via vmx_disable_intercept_for_msr -> vmx_msr_bitmap_l01_changed which in the end calls this function. The function checks for current_vmcs if it is null but the check is insufficient because current_vmcs is not initialized. Because of this, the code might incorrectly write to the structure pointed by current_vmcs value left by another task. Preemption is not disabled, the current task can be preempted and moved to another CPU while current_vmcs is accessed multiple times from evmcs_touch_msr_bitmap() which leads to crash. The manipulation of MSR bitmaps by callers happens only for vmcs01 so the solution is to use vmx->vmcs01.vmcs instead of current_vmcs.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dmaengine: ptdma: check for null desc before calling pt_cmd_callback Resolves a panic that can occur on AMD systems, typically during host shutdown, after the PTDMA driver had been exercised. The issue was the pt_issue_pending() function is mistakenly assuming that there will be at least one descriptor in the Submitted queue when the function is called. However, it is possible that both the Submitted and Issued queues could be empty, which could result in pt_cmd_callback() being mistakenly called with a NULL pointer. Ref: Bugzilla Bug 216856.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: lpfc: Fix ioremap issues in lpfc_sli4_pci_mem_setup() When if_type equals zero and pci_resource_start(pdev, PCI_64BIT_BAR4) returns false, drbl_regs_memmap_p is not remapped. This passes a NULL pointer to iounmap(), which can trigger a WARN() on certain arches. When if_type equals six and pci_resource_start(pdev, PCI_64BIT_BAR4) returns true, drbl_regs_memmap_p may has been remapped and ctrl_regs_memmap_p is not remapped. This is a resource leak and passes a NULL pointer to iounmap(). To fix these issues, we need to add null checks before iounmap(), and change some goto labels.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: fix mapping to non-allocated address [Why] There is an issue mapping non-allocated location of memory. It would allocate gpio registers from an array out of bounds. [How] Patch correct numbers of bounds for using.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: deal with integer overflows in kmalloc_reserve() Blamed commit changed: ptr = kmalloc(size); if (ptr) size = ksize(ptr); size = kmalloc_size_roundup(size); ptr = kmalloc(size); This allowed various crash as reported by syzbot [1] and Kyle Zeng. Problem is that if @size is bigger than 0x80000001, kmalloc_size_roundup(size) returns 2^32. kmalloc_reserve() uses a 32bit variable (obj_size), so 2^32 is truncated to 0. kmalloc(0) returns ZERO_SIZE_PTR which is not handled by skb allocations. Following trace can be triggered if a netdev->mtu is set close to 0x7fffffff We might in the future limit netdev->mtu to more sensible limit (like KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE). This patch is based on a syzbot report, and also a report and tentative fix from Kyle Zeng.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: mediatek: vcodec: Fix potential array out-of-bounds in decoder queue_setup variable *nplanes is provided by user via system call argument. The possible value of q_data->fmt->num_planes is 1-3, while the value of *nplanes can be 1-8. The array access by index i can cause array out-of-bounds. Fix this bug by checking *nplanes against the array size.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vc_screen: reload load of struct vc_data pointer in vcs_write() to avoid UAF After a call to console_unlock() in vcs_write() the vc_data struct can be freed by vc_port_destruct(). Because of that, the struct vc_data pointer must be reloaded in the while loop in vcs_write() after console_lock() to avoid a UAF when vcs_size() is called. Syzkaller reported a UAF in vcs_size().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/vfio-ap: fix memory leak in vfio_ap device driver The device release callback function invoked to release the matrix device uses the dev_get_drvdata(device *dev) function to retrieve the pointer to the vfio_matrix_dev object in order to free its storage. The problem is, this object is not stored as drvdata with the device; since the kfree function will accept a NULL pointer, the memory for the vfio_matrix_dev object is never freed. Since the device being released is contained within the vfio_matrix_dev object, the container_of macro will be used to retrieve its pointer.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: um: vector: Fix memory leak in vector_config If the return value of the uml_parse_vector_ifspec function is NULL, we should call kfree(params) to prevent memory leak.

Fix it by avoiding READ_ONCE() in read_instrumented_memory(), and simply forcing the compiler to do the required access by casting to the appropriate volatile type. In terms of generated code this currently only affects architectures that do not use the default READ_ONCE() implementation. The only downside is that we are not guaranteed atomicity of the access itself, although on most architectures a plain load up to machine word size should still be atomic (a fact the default READ_ONCE() still relies on itself).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm: hugetlb: fix UAF in hugetlb_handle_userfault The vma_lock and hugetlb_fault_mutex are dropped before handling userfault and reacquire them again after handle_userfault(), but reacquire the vma_lock could lead to UAF[1,2] due to the following race, hugetlb_fault hugetlb_no_page /*unlock vma_lock */ hugetlb_handle_userfault handle_userfault /* unlock mm->mmap_lock*/ vm_mmap_pgoff do_mmap mmap_region munmap_vma_range /* clean old vma */ /* lock vma_lock again <--- UAF */ /* unlock vma_lock */ Since the vma_lock will unlock immediately after hugetlb_handle_userfault(), let's drop the unneeded lock and unlock in hugetlb_handle_userfault() to fix the issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath11k: fix monitor mode bringup crash When the interface is brought up in monitor mode, it leads to NULL pointer dereference crash. This crash happens when the packet type is extracted for a SKB. This extraction which is present in the received msdu delivery path,is not needed for the monitor ring packets since they are all RAW packets.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: dvb-usb: fix memory leak in dvb_usb_adapter_init() Syzbot reports a memory leak in "dvb_usb_adapter_init()". The leak is due to not accounting for and freeing current iteration's adapter->priv in case of an error. Currently if an error occurs, it will exit before incrementing "num_adapters_initalized", which is used as a reference counter to free all adap->priv in "dvb_usb_adapter_exit()". There are multiple error paths that can exit from before incrementing the counter. Including the error handling paths for "dvb_usb_adapter_stream_init()", "dvb_usb_adapter_dvb_init()" and "dvb_usb_adapter_frontend_init()" within "dvb_usb_adapter_init()". This means that in case of an error in any of these functions the current iteration is not accounted for and the current iteration's adap->priv is not freed. Fix this by freeing the current iteration's adap->priv in the "stream_init_err:" label in the error path. The rest of the (accounted for) adap->priv objects are freed in dvb_usb_adapter_exit() as expected using the num_adapters_initalized variable.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: serial: amba-pl011: avoid SBSA UART accessing DMACR register Chapter "B Generic UART" in "ARM Server Base System Architecture" [1] documentation describes a generic UART interface. Such generic UART does not support DMA. In current code, sbsa_uart_pops and amba_pl011_pops share the same stop_rx operation, which will invoke pl011_dma_rx_stop, leading to an access of the DMACR register. This commit adds a using_rx_dma check in pl011_dma_rx_stop to avoid the access to DMACR register for SBSA UARTs which does not support DMA. When the kernel enables DMA engine with "CONFIG_DMA_ENGINE=y", Linux SBSA PL011 driver will access PL011 DMACR register in some functions. For most real SBSA Pl011 hardware implementations, the DMACR write behaviour will be ignored. So these DMACR operations will not cause obvious problems. But for some virtual SBSA PL011 hardware, like Xen virtual SBSA PL011 (vpl011) device, the behaviour might be different. Xen vpl011 emulation will inject a data abort to guest, when guest is accessing an unimplemented UART register. As Xen VPL011 is SBSA compatible, it will not implement DMACR register. So when Linux SBSA PL011 driver access DMACR register, it will get an unhandled data abort fault and the application will get a segmentation fault: Unhandled fault at 0xffffffc00944d048 Mem abort info: ESR = 0x96000000 EC = 0x25: DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits SET = 0, FnV = 0 EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 FSC = 0x00: ttbr address size fault Data abort info: ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000000 CM = 0, WnR = 0 swapper pgtable: 4k pages, 39-bit VAs, pgdp=0000000020e2e000 [ffffffc00944d048] pgd=100000003ffff803, p4d=100000003ffff803, pud=100000003ffff803, pmd=100000003fffa803, pte=006800009c090f13 Internal error: ttbr address size fault: 96000000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: netsec: fix error handling in netsec_register_mdio() If phy_device_register() fails, phy_device_free() need be called to put refcount, so memory of phy device and device name can be freed in callback function. If get_phy_device() fails, mdiobus_unregister() need be called, or it will cause warning in mdiobus_free() and kobject is leaked.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fpga: prevent integer overflow in dfl_feature_ioctl_set_irq() The "hdr.count * sizeof(s32)" multiplication can overflow on 32 bit systems leading to memory corruption. Use array_size() to fix that.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: fix potential memory leak in ext4_fc_record_modified_inode() As krealloc may return NULL, in this case 'state->fc_modified_inodes' may not be freed by krealloc, but 'state->fc_modified_inodes' already set NULL. Then will lead to 'state->fc_modified_inodes' memory leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dm: verity-loadpin: Only trust verity targets with enforcement Verity targets can be configured to ignore corrupted data blocks. LoadPin must only trust verity targets that are configured to perform some kind of enforcement when data corruption is detected, like returning an error, restarting the system or triggering a panic.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdkfd: Fix memory leak in kfd_mem_dmamap_userptr() If the number of pages from the userptr BO differs from the SG BO then the allocated memory for the SG table doesn't get freed before returning -EINVAL, which may lead to a memory leak in some error paths. Fix this by checking the number of pages before allocating memory for the SG table.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mmc: meson-gx: fix return value check of mmc_add_host() mmc_add_host() may return error, if we ignore its return value, it will lead two issues: 1. The memory that allocated in mmc_alloc_host() is leaked. 2. In the remove() path, mmc_remove_host() will be called to delete device, but it's not added yet, it will lead a kernel crash because of null-ptr-deref in device_del(). Fix this by checking the return value and goto error path which will call mmc_free_host().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu/powerplay/psm: Fix memory leak in power state init Commit 902bc65de0b3 ("drm/amdgpu/powerplay/psm: return an error in power state init") made the power state init function return early in case of failure to get an entry from the powerplay table, but it missed to clean up the allocated memory for the current power state before returning.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: regulator: core: Use different devices for resource allocation and DT lookup Following by the below discussion, there's the potential UAF issue between regulator and mfd. https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221128143601.1698148-1-yangyingliang@huawei.com/ From the analysis of Yingliang CPU A |CPU B mt6370_probe() | devm_mfd_add_devices() | |mt6370_regulator_probe() | regulator_register() | //allocate init_data and add it to devres | regulator_of_get_init_data() i2c_unregister_device() | device_del() | devres_release_all() | // init_data is freed | release_nodes() | | // using init_data causes UAF | regulator_register() It's common to use mfd core to create child device for the regulator. In order to do the DT lookup for init data, the child that registered the regulator would pass its parent as the parameter. And this causes init data resource allocated to its parent, not itself. The issue happen when parent device is going to release and regulator core is still doing some operation of init data constraint for the regulator of child device. To fix it, this patch expand 'regulator_register' API to use the different devices for init data allocation and DT lookup.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: perf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix reference count leak in snr_uncore_mmio_map() pci_get_device() will increase the reference count for the returned pci_dev, so snr_uncore_get_mc_dev() will return a pci_dev with its reference count increased. We need to call pci_dev_put() to decrease the reference count. Let's add the missing pci_dev_put().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md/raid0, raid10: Don't set discard sectors for request queue It should use disk_stack_limits to get a proper max_discard_sectors rather than setting a value by stack drivers. And there is a bug. If all member disks are rotational devices, raid0/raid10 set max_discard_sectors. So the member devices are not ssd/nvme, but raid0/raid10 export the wrong value. It reports warning messages in function __blkdev_issue_discard when mkfs.xfs like this: [ 4616.022599] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 4616.027779] WARNING: CPU: 4 PID: 99634 at block/blk-lib.c:50 __blkdev_issue_discard+0x16a/0x1a0 [ 4616.140663] RIP: 0010:__blkdev_issue_discard+0x16a/0x1a0 [ 4616.146601] Code: 24 4c 89 20 31 c0 e9 fe fe ff ff c1 e8 09 8d 48 ff 4c 89 f0 4c 09 e8 48 85 c1 0f 84 55 ff ff ff b8 ea ff ff ff e9 df fe ff ff <0f> 0b 48 8d 74 24 08 e8 ea d6 00 00 48 c7 c6 20 1e 89 ab 48 c7 c7 [ 4616.167567] RSP: 0018:ffffaab88cbffca8 EFLAGS: 00010246 [ 4616.173406] RAX: ffff9ba1f9e44678 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: ffff9ba1c9792080 [ 4616.181376] RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: ffff9ba1c9792080 [ 4616.189345] RBP: 0000000000000cc0 R08: ffffaab88cbffd10 R09: 0000000000000000 [ 4616.197317] R10: 0000000000000012 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0000000000000000 [ 4616.205288] R13: 0000000000400000 R14: 0000000000000cc0 R15: ffff9ba1c9792080 [ 4616.213259] FS: 00007f9a5534e980(0000) GS:ffff9ba1b7c80000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 4616.222298] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 4616.228719] CR2: 000055a390a4c518 CR3: 0000000123e40006 CR4: 00000000001706e0 [ 4616.236689] Call Trace: [ 4616.239428] blkdev_issue_discard+0x52/0xb0 [ 4616.244108] blkdev_common_ioctl+0x43c/0xa00 [ 4616.248883] blkdev_ioctl+0x116/0x280 [ 4616.252977] __x64_sys_ioctl+0x8a/0xc0 [ 4616.257163] do_syscall_64+0x5c/0x90 [ 4616.261164] ? handle_mm_fault+0xc5/0x2a0 [ 4616.265652] ? do_user_addr_fault+0x1d8/0x690 [ 4616.270527] ? do_syscall_64+0x69/0x90 [ 4616.274717] ? exc_page_fault+0x62/0x150 [ 4616.279097] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd [ 4616.284748] RIP: 0033:0x7f9a55398c6b
Denial of service in the Linux kernel's NFSD (in-kernel NFSv4 server) allows remote clients to crash the server by sending a GETATTR request that queries the newly-defined time_deleg FATTR4 delegation attributes, for which NFSD previously had no defined handler. The fix makes NFSD return nfserr_inval for such spec-invalid queries (RFC 9754 Section 5) instead of crashing. EPSS is very low (0.03%) and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, so this is a defensive robustness fix rather than an actively exploited issue.
Denial of service in the Linux kernel NFS server (nfsd) allows a crash in nfsd4_read_release() to be triggered while the trace_nfsd_read_done tracepoint is active, as surfaced by the pynfs read.testNoFh conformance test. The flaw affects NFSv4 READ compound processing and results in a kernel crash (availability impact only, no data disclosure or code execution). It has been resolved upstream and shipped across multiple stable series; no public exploit is identified at time of analysis and EPSS exploitation probability is very low (0.05%).
Local privilege escalation and kernel memory corruption in the Linux kernel's framebuffer console (fbcon) subsystem arises from a use-after-free: when a framebuffer device is unregistered, the freed mode list leaves dangling pointers in the global fb_display[] array, which fb_mode_is_equal() later dereferences. A local low-privileged attacker with access to framebuffer devices (/dev/fbN) can trigger the freed-memory read/write via FBIOPUT_CON2FBMAP and mode-deletion ioctls, enabling denial of service or potential arbitrary kernel code execution. The flaw was found via syzkaller (KASAN slab-use-after-free), it carries EPSS 0.04% (11th percentile), it is not in CISA KEV, and no public exploit is identified - though detailed reproduction steps are published in the commit message.
Out-of-bounds read in the Linux kernel's framebuffer console (fbdev) bitblit code affects the built-in font rendering path, where bit_putcs_aligned() and bit_putcs_unaligned() masked the character value with 0xff/0x1ff and used it as a glyph index without validating it against the actual font's glyph count. A local low-privileged attacker able to drive framebuffer console output can trigger a global out-of-bounds read past the built-in font array, leaking adjacent kernel memory or crashing the system. Discovered by syzbot; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and with an EPSS of 0.04% real-world exploitation is unlikely to be widespread.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: brcmfmac: fix crash while sending Action Frames in standalone AP Mode Currently, whenever there is a need to transmit an Action frame, the brcmfmac driver always uses the P2P vif to send the "actframe" IOVAR to firmware. The P2P interfaces were available when wpa_supplicant is managing the wlan interface. However, the P2P interfaces are not created/initialized when only hostapd is managing the wlan interface. And if hostapd receives an ANQP Query REQ Action frame even from an un-associated STA, the brcmfmac driver tries to use an uninitialized P2P vif pointer for sending the IOVAR to firmware. This NULL pointer dereferencing triggers a driver crash. [ 1417.074538] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000 [...] [ 1417.075188] Hardware name: Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5 (DT) [...] [ 1417.075653] Call trace: [ 1417.075662] brcmf_p2p_send_action_frame+0x23c/0xc58 [brcmfmac] [ 1417.075738] brcmf_cfg80211_mgmt_tx+0x304/0x5c0 [brcmfmac] [ 1417.075810] cfg80211_mlme_mgmt_tx+0x1b0/0x428 [cfg80211] [ 1417.076067] nl80211_tx_mgmt+0x238/0x388 [cfg80211] [ 1417.076281] genl_family_rcv_msg_doit+0xe0/0x158 [ 1417.076302] genl_rcv_msg+0x220/0x2a0 [ 1417.076317] netlink_rcv_skb+0x68/0x140 [ 1417.076330] genl_rcv+0x40/0x60 [ 1417.076343] netlink_unicast+0x330/0x3b8 [ 1417.076357] netlink_sendmsg+0x19c/0x3f8 [ 1417.076370] __sock_sendmsg+0x64/0xc0 [ 1417.076391] ____sys_sendmsg+0x268/0x2a0 [ 1417.076408] ___sys_sendmsg+0xb8/0x118 [ 1417.076427] __sys_sendmsg+0x90/0xf8 [ 1417.076445] __arm64_sys_sendmsg+0x2c/0x40 [ 1417.076465] invoke_syscall+0x50/0x120 [ 1417.076486] el0_svc_common.constprop.0+0x48/0xf0 [ 1417.076506] do_el0_svc+0x24/0x38 [ 1417.076525] el0_svc+0x30/0x100 [ 1417.076548] el0t_64_sync_handler+0x100/0x130 [ 1417.076569] el0t_64_sync+0x190/0x198 [ 1417.076589] Code: f9401e80 aa1603e2 f9403be1 5280e483 (f9400000) Fix this, by always using the vif corresponding to the wdev on which the Action frame Transmission request was initiated by the userspace. This way, even if P2P vif is not available, the IOVAR is sent to firmware on AP vif and the ANQP Query RESP Action frame is transmitted without crashing the driver. Move init_completion() for "send_af_done" from brcmf_p2p_create_p2pdev() to brcmf_p2p_attach(). Because the former function would not get executed when only hostapd is managing wlan interface, and it is not safe to do reinit_completion() later in brcmf_p2p_tx_action_frame(), without any prior init_completion(). And in the brcmf_p2p_tx_action_frame() function, the condition check for P2P Presence response frame is not needed, since the wpa_supplicant is properly sending the P2P Presense Response frame on the P2P-GO vif instead of the P2P-Device vif.

Use-after-free in the Linux kernel's CIFS/SMB client (cifs module) affects the smb2_query_info_compound() function, where a cached fid (cfid) freed during a first attempt is not reset to NULL before a replay, so subsequent cleanup dereferences a stale pointer. Reachable through ordinary filesystem operations such as statfs() against an SMB mount, it manifests as a refcount underflow and use-after-free that most plausibly causes kernel memory corruption and denial of service on hosts with CIFS mounts. This is no public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS is very low (0.03%, 7th percentile) and it is not in CISA KEV, though a vendor patch and Ubuntu USN are available.
Local privilege escalation and kernel memory corruption in the Linux kernel's BPF ring buffer subsystem allows a low-privileged user capable of loading BPF programs to trigger a use-after-free. A race exists where irq_work queued in bpf_ringbuf_commit() can execute after the ring buffer is freed, letting the irq_work handler access freed memory - a bug found by syzbot via a BPF program attached to sched_switch. The fix adds irq_work_sync(&rb->work) before freeing the buffer. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.05%), but kernel UAF flaws are historically weaponizable for local privilege escalation.
A use-after-free condition in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth HCI command-synchronization layer (hci_sync) lets a race between hci_cmd_sync_dequeue_once() and hci_cmd_sync_work() delete the same list entry twice, corrupting kernel memory. It affects the mainline Linux kernel Bluetooth stack up to the fixed stable releases (6.1.159, 6.6.117, 6.12.58, 6.17.8) and is fixed upstream. There is no public exploit identified and EPSS is very low (0.04%), but the NVD-scored CVSS of 8.8 reflects the high-impact memory-corruption potential (denial of service and possible privilege escalation) if the race is won.
Kernel memory corruption in the Linux kernel SLIMbus regmap layer (regmap-slimbus) occurs because __devm_regmap_init_slimbus() and __regmap_init_slimbus() passed an incorrect bus_context pointer, causing an invalid-address dereference during SLIMbus register I/O. On affected Qualcomm-based platforms (e.g. wcd934x audio codec on SDM845 boards), a local user triggering audio playback crashes the kernel and may corrupt or disclose memory. This is a resolved regression exposed by commit 4e65bda8273c; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS probability is negligible (0.05%).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/mediatek: Fix device use-after-free on unbind A recent change fixed device reference leaks when looking up drm platform device driver data during bind() but failed to remove a partial fix which had been added by commit 80805b62ea5b ("drm/mediatek: Fix kobject put for component sub-drivers"). This results in a reference imbalance on component bind() failures and on unbind() which could lead to a user-after-free. Make sure to only drop the references after retrieving the driver data by effectively reverting the previous partial fix. Note that holding a reference to a device does not prevent its driver data from going away so there is no point in keeping the reference.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_fs: Fix epfile null pointer access after ep enable. A race condition occurs when ffs_func_eps_enable() runs concurrently with ffs_data_reset(). The ffs_data_clear() called in ffs_data_reset() sets ffs->epfiles to NULL before resetting ffs->eps_count to 0, leading to a NULL pointer dereference when accessing epfile->ep in ffs_func_eps_enable() after successful usb_ep_enable(). The ffs->epfiles pointer is set to NULL in both ffs_data_clear() and ffs_data_close() functions, and its modification is protected by the spinlock ffs->eps_lock. And the whole ffs_func_eps_enable() function is also protected by ffs->eps_lock. Thus, add NULL pointer handling for ffs->epfiles in the ffs_func_eps_enable() function to fix issues
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: cdns3: gadget: Use-after-free during failed initialization and exit of cdnsp gadget In the __cdnsp_gadget_init() and cdnsp_gadget_exit() functions, the gadget structure (pdev->gadget) was freed before its endpoints. The endpoints are linked via the ep_list in the gadget structure. Freeing the gadget first leaves dangling pointers in the endpoint list. When the endpoints are subsequently freed, this results in a use-after-free. Fix: By separating the usb_del_gadget_udc() operation into distinct "del" and "put" steps, cdnsp_gadget_free_endpoints() can be executed prior to the final release of the gadget structure with usb_put_gadget(). A patch similar to bb9c74a5bd14("usb: dwc3: gadget: Free gadget structure only after freeing endpoints").
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ntfs3: pretend $Extend records as regular files Since commit af153bb63a33 ("vfs: catch invalid modes in may_open()") requires any inode be one of S_IFDIR/S_IFLNK/S_IFREG/S_IFCHR/S_IFBLK/ S_IFIFO/S_IFSOCK type, use S_IFREG for $Extend records.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: jfs: Verify inode mode when loading from disk The inode mode loaded from corrupted disk can be invalid. Do like what commit 0a9e74051313 ("isofs: Verify inode mode when loading from disk") does.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: accel/habanalabs: support mapping cb with vmalloc-backed coherent memory When IOMMU is enabled, dma_alloc_coherent() with GFP_USER may return addresses from the vmalloc range. If such an address is mapped without VM_MIXEDMAP, vm_insert_page() will trigger a BUG_ON due to the VM_PFNMAP restriction. Fix this by checking for vmalloc addresses and setting VM_MIXEDMAP in the VMA before mapping. This ensures safe mapping and avoids kernel crashes. The memory is still driver-allocated and cannot be accessed directly by userspace.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: amd/amdkfd: resolve a race in amdgpu_amdkfd_device_fini_sw There is race in amdgpu_amdkfd_device_fini_sw and interrupt. if amdgpu_amdkfd_device_fini_sw run in b/w kfd_cleanup_nodes and kfree(kfd), and KGD interrupt generated. kernel panic log: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000098 amdgpu 0000:c8:00.0: amdgpu: Requesting 4 partitions through PSP PGD d78c68067 P4D d78c68067 kfd kfd: amdgpu: Allocated 3969056 bytes on gart PUD 1465b8067 PMD @ Oops: @002 [#1] SMP NOPTI kfd kfd: amdgpu: Total number of KFD nodes to be created: 4 CPU: 115 PID: @ Comm: swapper/115 Kdump: loaded Tainted: G S W OE K RIP: 0010:_raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x12/0x40 Code: 89 e@ 41 5c c3 cc cc cc cc 66 66 2e Of 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 OF 1f 40 00 Of 1f 44% 00 00 41 54 9c 41 5c fa 31 cO ba 01 00 00 00 <fO> OF b1 17 75 Ba 4c 89 e@ 41 Sc 89 c6 e8 07 38 5d RSP: 0018: ffffc90@1a6b0e28 EFLAGS: 00010046 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 0000000000000000 RCX: 0000000000000018 0000000000000001 RSI: ffff8883bb623e00 RDI: 0000000000000098 ffff8883bb000000 RO8: ffff888100055020 ROO: ffff888100055020 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000000 R12: 0900000000000002 ffff888F2b97da0@ R14: @000000000000098 R15: ffff8883babdfo00 CS: 010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CRO: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000000098 CR3: 0000000e7cae2006 CR4: 0000000002770ce0 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffeO7FO DR7: 0000000000000400 PKRU: 55555554 Call Trace: <IRQ> kgd2kfd_interrupt+@x6b/0x1f@ [amdgpu] ? amdgpu_fence_process+0xa4/0x150 [amdgpu] kfd kfd: amdgpu: Node: 0, interrupt_bitmap: 3 YcpxFl Rant tErace amdgpu_irq_dispatch+0x165/0x210 [amdgpu] amdgpu_ih_process+0x80/0x100 [amdgpu] amdgpu: Virtual CRAT table created for GPU amdgpu_irq_handler+0x1f/@x60 [amdgpu] __handle_irq_event_percpu+0x3d/0x170 amdgpu: Topology: Add dGPU node [0x74a2:0x1002] handle_irq_event+0x5a/@xcO handle_edge_irq+0x93/0x240 kfd kfd: amdgpu: KFD node 1 partition @ size 49148M asm_call_irq_on_stack+0xf/@x20 </IRQ> common_interrupt+0xb3/0x130 asm_common_interrupt+0x1le/0x40 5.10.134-010.a1i5000.a18.x86_64 #1
Memory corruption (use-after-free) in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth SCO (Synchronous Connection-Oriented) socket subsystem allows a local attacker with Bluetooth socket access to trigger a slab use-after-free during connection teardown. The flaw affects net/bluetooth/sco.c, where sco_conn_free/sco_conn_put in the HCI command-sync workqueue can operate on a sco_conn object whose backing socket was already freed by a concurrent sco_sock_release, leading to a kernel write to freed memory. Rated CVSS 8.0 with a fix already merged upstream and shipped in stable kernels; no public exploit is identified and EPSS is very low (0.03%).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: bcsp: receive data only if registered Currently, bcsp_recv() can be called even when the BCSP protocol has not been registered. This leads to a NULL pointer dereference, as shown in the following stack trace: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000108-0x000000000000010f] RIP: 0010:bcsp_recv+0x13d/0x1740 drivers/bluetooth/hci_bcsp.c:590 Call Trace: <TASK> hci_uart_tty_receive+0x194/0x220 drivers/bluetooth/hci_ldisc.c:627 tiocsti+0x23c/0x2c0 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:2290 tty_ioctl+0x626/0xde0 drivers/tty/tty_io.c:2706 vfs_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:51 [inline] __do_sys_ioctl fs/ioctl.c:907 [inline] __se_sys_ioctl+0xfc/0x170 fs/ioctl.c:893 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:63 [inline] do_syscall_64+0xfa/0x3b0 arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f To prevent this, ensure that the HCI_UART_REGISTERED flag is set before processing received data. If the protocol is not registered, return -EUNATCH.
Filesystem corruption in the Linux kernel's exFAT driver (exfat-fs) allows a local attacker who can mount a crafted exFAT image to overwrite in-use data structures and reallocate live clusters. Because the allocation bitmap's own cluster-allocation bits are never validated on mount, a malicious image can point the bitmap at cluster 6, which mkdir then zeroes - deleting existing directory entries and corrupting the bitmap itself, enabling further reallocation of already-allocated clusters. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.03%), consistent with a local physical/mount-dependent flaw rather than a mass-exploited network bug.
Local denial-of-service and filesystem corruption in the Linux kernel's OrangeFS driver stems from a broken loop in the xattr_key() helper, which tests the pointer instead of the dereferenced character and therefore walks memory indefinitely instead of stopping at a C-string terminator. On systems mounting OrangeFS, an unprivileged local user issuing extended-attribute operations (setfattr/getfattr) can trigger a kernel oops, hung processes, and corrupted OrangeFS files; a secondary hash_add() misuse also leaks kernel memory on every security.capability getattr, driving the system toward OOM. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.07%, 20th percentile), consistent with a niche, non-remote issue.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: 9p/trans_fd: p9_fd_request: kick rx thread if EPOLLIN p9_read_work() doesn't set Rworksched and doesn't do schedule_work(m->rq) if list_empty(&m->req_list). However, if the pipe is full, we need to read more data and this used to work prior to commit aaec5a95d59615 ("pipe_read: don't wake up the writer if the pipe is still full"). p9_read_work() does p9_fd_read() -> ... -> anon_pipe_read() which (before the commit above) triggered the unnecessary wakeup. This wakeup calls p9_pollwake() which kicks p9_poll_workfn() -> p9_poll_mux(), p9_poll_mux() will notice EPOLLIN and schedule_work(&m->rq). This no longer happens after the optimization above, change p9_fd_request() to use p9_poll_mux() instead of only checking for EPOLLOUT.
Out-of-bounds memory corruption in the Linux kernel's fbdev console text-rendering path (bit_putcs) allows a local, low-privileged user to trigger vmalloc-out-of-bounds writes when text is rendered near screen edges, corrupting kernel heap memory adjacent to the framebuffer. The flaw stems from a character-count/buffer-size mismatch after horizontal clipping, and with a CVSS of 7.8 (local, low complexity, C:H/I:H/A:H) it can lead to memory corruption and potential privilege escalation or denial of service. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.05%, 16th percentile), consistent with a non-remote, config- and hardware-dependent kernel bug rather than a mass-exploitation target.
Use-after-free in the Linux kernel btrfs filesystem allows a local user to crash the system during unmount of an error-flagged filesystem, particularly when RAID56 is used for metadata. When btrfs marks a filesystem as errored, dirty tree-block folios linger in the btree inode page cache and are written back during close_ctree() after the worker threads have already been stopped and freed, causing queue_work() on a destroyed rmw_workers queue and a use-after-free. CVSS is 7.8 (High); this is a local privilege/DoS issue with no public exploit identified at time of analysis and a very low EPSS of 0.03%.
Local privilege escalation via memory corruption in the Linux kernel's videobuf2 (vb2) media framework allows a local user with access to a V4L2 video device to corrupt internal queue state by invoking the VIDIOC_REMOVE_BUFS ioctl while legacy read/write fileio mode is active. The vb2_ioctl_remove_bufs() path manipulates the queue's internal buffer list and can overwrite pointers the fileio access mode still relies on, leading to high-impact confidentiality, integrity, and availability effects (CVSS 7.8, AV:L). No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; EPSS is negligible (0.03%) and the flaw is not in CISA KEV.
Uninitialized memory read in the Linux kernel Bluetooth HCI event layer allows a malicious or malfunctioning Bluetooth controller to leak a byte of kernel memory and induce undefined command-completion handling. The flaw lives in hci_cmd_complete_evt(), where an unknown Command Complete opcode causes the code to read skb->data[0] as a return status even after all parameter bytes were already pulled, leaving the buffer empty. It is a fixed upstream kernel bug (CWE-908-class use of uninitialized resource) with no public exploit identified at time of analysis and a very low EPSS score of 0.04%.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gve: Implement gettimex64 with -EOPNOTSUPP gve implemented a ptp_clock for sole use of do_aux_work at this time. ptp_clock_gettime() and ptp_sys_offset() assume every ptp_clock has implemented either gettimex64 or gettime64. Stub gettimex64 and return -EOPNOTSUPP to prevent NULL dereferencing.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gve: Implement settime64 with -EOPNOTSUPP ptp_clock_settime() assumes every ptp_clock has implemented settime64(). Stub it with -EOPNOTSUPP to prevent a NULL dereference.
Local privilege-level attackers can trigger a use-after-free in the Linux kernel's network bridge (net/bridge) MST implementation when a bridge port is deleted concurrently with FDB learning. The flaw stems from Multiple Spanning Tree (MST) mode bypassing the port's disabled state check, allowing FDB entries to be learned while a port is being torn down. EPSS is low (0.04%, 11th percentile) and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis; the issue was found by syzbot fuzzing rather than in-the-wild exploitation.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: platform/x86: int3472: Fix double free of GPIO device during unregister regulator_unregister() already frees the associated GPIO device. On ThinkPad X9 (Lunar Lake), this causes a double free issue that leads to random failures when other drivers (typically Intel THC) attempt to allocate interrupts. The root cause is that the reference count of the pinctrl_intel_platform module unexpectedly drops to zero when this driver defers its probe. This behavior can also be reproduced by unloading the module directly. Fix the issue by removing the redundant release of the GPIO device during regulator unregistration.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fscrypt: fix left shift underflow when inode->i_blkbits > PAGE_SHIFT When simulating an nvme device on qemu with both logical_block_size and physical_block_size set to 8 KiB, an error trace appears during partition table reading at boot time. The issue is caused by inode->i_blkbits being larger than PAGE_SHIFT, which leads to a left shift of -1 and triggering a UBSAN warning.

File I/O does not trigger this problem because for filesystems that do not support the FS_LBS feature, sb_set_blocksize() prevents sb->s_blocksize_bits from being larger than PAGE_SHIFT. During inode allocation, alloc_inode()->inode_init_always() assigns inode->i_blkbits from sb->s_blocksize_bits. Currently, only xfs_fs_type has the FS_LBS flag, and since xfs I/O paths do not reach submit_bh_wbc(), it does not hit the left-shift underflow issue. [EB: use folio_pos() and consolidate the two shifts by i_blkbits]
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: MGMT: Fix OOB access in parse_adv_monitor_pattern() In the parse_adv_monitor_pattern() function, the value of the 'length' variable is currently limited to HCI_MAX_EXT_AD_LENGTH(251). The size of the 'value' array in the mgmt_adv_pattern structure is 31. If the value of 'pattern[i].length' is set in the user space and exceeds 31, the 'patterns[i].value' array can be accessed out of bound when copied. Increasing the size of the 'value' array in the 'mgmt_adv_pattern' structure will break the userspace. Considering this, and to avoid OOB access revert the limits for 'offset' and 'length' back to the value of HCI_MAX_AD_LENGTH. Found by InfoTeCS on behalf of Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommufd: Don't overflow during division for dirty tracking If pgshift is 63 then BITS_PER_TYPE(*bitmap->bitmap) * pgsize will overflow to 0 and this triggers divide by 0. In this case the index should just be 0, so reorganize things to divide by shift and avoid hitting any overflows.
Denial-of-service (and potential out-of-bounds read) in the Linux kernel's virtio-net driver lets a malicious or compromised virtualization host crash guest VMs by announcing a receive buffer length larger than the guest allocated for 'big packets' mode. The flaw stems from an incomplete length check introduced when commit 4959aebba8c0 changed big-packet buffer sizing from a fixed MAX_SKB_FRAGS * PAGE_SIZE to an MTU-dependent value, leaving the receive-path validation stale. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.04%), consistent with a host-to-guest condition rather than internet-facing mass exploitation.
Local privilege escalation and memory corruption in the Linux kernel's io_uring subsystem arises from an integer truncation flaw in io_estimate_bvec_size(), where the calculated number of registered-buffer segments is truncated into an int and can overflow values used in later allocation and copy logic. Affected are Linux kernel builds carrying the vulnerable io_uring registered buffer vector code (6.15 through the fixed 6.17.8/6.18 line); a local user able to submit io_uring operations can trigger heap corruption with high confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.03%), consistent with a bug reported and fixed upstream rather than one under active exploitation.
Memory corruption in the Linux kernel AF_XDP (xsk) zero-copy transmit path allows a local user with an AF_XDP socket to trigger a NULL pointer dereference and fatal kernel panic. The regression, introduced by commit 30f241fcf52a, misused the skb control block to store the completion-queue descriptor count; because the control block is reused by other subsystems (e.g. IP receive) after transmit, xsk_destruct_skb dereferences corrupted data. EPSS is 0.03% and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis; the practical outcome is denial of service rather than the full CIA compromise implied by the raw 7.8 CVSS.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: hide VRAM sysfs attributes on GPUs without VRAM Otherwise accessing them can cause a crash.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: Fix NULL pointer dereference in VRAM logic for APU devices Previously, APU platforms (and other scenarios with uninitialized VRAM managers) triggered a NULL pointer dereference in `ttm_resource_manager_usage()`. The root cause is not that the `struct ttm_resource_manager *man` pointer itself is NULL, but that `man->bdev` (the backing device pointer within the manager) remains uninitialized (NULL) on APUs-since APUs lack dedicated VRAM and do not fully set up VRAM manager structures. When `ttm_resource_manager_usage()` attempts to acquire `man->bdev->lru_lock`, it dereferences the NULL `man->bdev`, leading to a kernel OOPS. 1. **amdgpu_cs.c**: Extend the existing bandwidth control check in `amdgpu_cs_get_threshold_for_moves()` to include a check for `ttm_resource_manager_used()`. If the manager is not used (uninitialized `bdev`), return 0 for migration thresholds immediately-skipping VRAM-specific logic that would trigger the NULL dereference. 2. **amdgpu_kms.c**: Update the `AMDGPU_INFO_VRAM_USAGE` ioctl and memory info reporting to use a conditional: if the manager is used, return the real VRAM usage; otherwise, return 0. This avoids accessing `man->bdev` when it is NULL. 3. **amdgpu_virt.c**: Modify the vf2pf (virtual function to physical function) data write path. Use `ttm_resource_manager_used()` to check validity: if the manager is usable, calculate `fb_usage` from VRAM usage; otherwise, set `fb_usage` to 0 (APUs have no discrete framebuffer to report). This approach is more robust than APU-specific checks because it: - Works for all scenarios where the VRAM manager is uninitialized (not just APUs), - Aligns with TTM's design by using its native helper function, - Preserves correct behavior for discrete GPUs (which have fully initialized `man->bdev` and pass the `ttm_resource_manager_used()` check). v4: use ttm_resource_manager_used(&adev->mman.vram_mgr.manager) instead of checking the adev->gmc.is_app_apu flag (Christian)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: exfat: fix improper check of dentry.stream.valid_size We found an infinite loop bug in the exFAT file system that can lead to a Denial-of-Service (DoS) condition. When a dentry in an exFAT filesystem is malformed, the following system calls - SYS_openat, SYS_ftruncate, and SYS_pwrite64 - can cause the kernel to hang. Root cause analysis shows that the size validation code in exfat_find() does not check whether dentry.stream.valid_size is negative. As a result, the system calls mentioned above can succeed and eventually trigger the DoS issue. This patch adds a check for negative dentry.stream.valid_size to prevent this vulnerability.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb/server: fix possible memory leak in smb2_read() Memory leak occurs when ksmbd_vfs_read() fails. Fix this by adding the missing kvfree().
Denial of service in the Linux kernel's in-kernel SMB3 server (ksmbd) arises from a reference-count leak in smb2_sess_setup() that is not released along the session-reconnect path. Remote attackers reaching an exposed ksmbd service can repeatedly drive session setups requiring reconnect to leak ksmbd_session references, progressively exhausting kernel memory and impacting availability (CVSS 7.5, A:H only). No public exploit is identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.04%), but vendor-released patches are already shipping across stable branches.
Local privilege-boundary memory corruption in the Linux kernel Bluetooth Management (MGMT) subsystem allows a local low-privileged user to trigger a slab-use-after-free when a Bluetooth HCI device (hdev) is removed while the mesh_send_done timer is still pending. Because the timer was never canceled during hdev teardown, it can fire against freed memory (device_release path), causing a KASAN slab-use-after-free that typically crashes the kernel (denial of service), with a theoretical path to further corruption. EPSS is very low (0.04%, 11th percentile), there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in CISA KEV; a vendor patch is available.
Local privilege escalation and memory corruption in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth btusb USB driver arises from a use-after-free in btusb_disconnect(), where the interface's btusb data is freed by usb_driver_release_interface() and then dereferenced later in the same function. Affected systems run vulnerable stable kernels (5.4/5.10/5.15/6.1/6.6/6.12/6.17 branches and 6.18 pre-release) with a Bluetooth USB adapter; a local attacker able to influence USB device teardown could corrupt kernel slab memory, potentially yielding code execution or a crash. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.05%), so this is a patch-hygiene item rather than an urgent, actively-exploited threat.
Kernel panic (BUG) in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth 6LoWPAN subsystem (net/bluetooth/6lowpan.c) allows an adjacent attacker to crash the host by sending uncompressed IPv6 frames over a Bluetooth 6LoWPAN link. Because the 6lowpan netdev registers header_ops but never reset the MAC/link-local header on the uncompressed IPv6 RX path, delivery to a listener such as an AF_PACKET SOCK_RAW socket triggers a fatal skb_reset_mac_header assertion (kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:212). Tagged as Denial of Service; EPSS is 0.05% (16th percentile), no KEV listing, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
