In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: block: mtip32xx: synchronize ioctls with device removal The ioctl handlers only test REMOVE_PENDING before entering mtip_hw_ioctl(). Removal can set that bit immediately afterwards and free dd->port in mtip_hw_exit() while an ioctl still dereferences it. An already open block device can reach the handlers while del_gendisk() is in progress. Serialize both native and compat ioctls with removal. Set REMOVE_PENDING before taking the mutex so new callers fail after an in-flight ioctl has drained, and hold the mutex until the port has been torn down.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: apparmor: fix deadlock in complain-mode change_hat The use of change_hat when in complain mode can cause a deadlock when the hat doesn't exist and a new learning profile is created for the missing profile. This is because change_hat() has taken the lock to search the hat list and creating the new learning profile needs to take the lock to add it to the list. From the bug report: Originally found in 7.0.0 in LTS ubuntu 26.04 with pam_apparmor + su in complain mode set to change hats. Then verified in newest available vanilla kernel I've compiled to see if still present: 7.2-rc7 vanilla -> affected checked also some other kernels: 6.18.44 vanilla -> affected 6.12.95 with debian patches -> unaffected On systems without bug (for example 6.12.95 debian) it just prints: aa_change_hat rc=0 On systems with bug, the executable always hangs, prints nothing and becomes unkillable. (And once stuck this way, it will cause any further hat changes to also cause the changing process to get stuck) Then in syslog you can find hint about cause: kernel: INFO: task hat:3409 blocked for more than 483 seconds. kernel: Not tainted 7.2.0-rc7 #1 kernel: "echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message. kernel: task:hat state:D stack:0 pid:3409 tgid:3409 ppid:2605 task_flags:0x400000 flags:0x00080800 kernel: Call Trace: kernel: <TASK> kernel: __schedule+0x48f/0xfe0 kernel: schedule+0x27/0xa0 kernel: schedule_preempt_disabled+0x15/0x30 kernel: __mutex_lock.constprop.0+0x569/0xa10 kernel: aa_new_learning_profile+0x15f/0x210 kernel: build_change_hat+0x19f/0x3b0 kernel: change_hat.isra.0+0x5dd/0xd60 kernel: aa_change_hat+0x2f3/0x710 kernel: aa_setprocattr_changehat+0x121/0x1f0 kernel: do_setattr+0x28c/0x340 kernel: apparmor_setselfattr+0x20/0x50 kernel: security_setselfattr+0xf6/0x110 kernel: __x64_sys_lsm_set_self_attr+0x53/0x90 kernel: do_syscall_64+0xdd/0x5e0 kernel: ? __mod_memcg_lruvec_state+0xfd/0x260 kernel: ? lruvec_stat_mod_folio+0x8d/0xd0 kernel: ? __folio_mod_stat+0x2d/0x90 kernel: ? map_anon_folio_pte_nopf+0xd1/0x1f0 kernel: ? do_anonymous_page+0x184/0xa10 kernel: ? __handle_mm_fault+0x805/0x870 kernel: ? count_memcg_events+0xef/0x230 kernel: ? handle_mm_fault+0x1f0/0x2f0 kernel: ? do_user_addr_fault+0x2bb/0x7b0 kernel: ? do_syscall_64+0x94/0x5e0 kernel: ? exc_page_fault+0x75/0x160 kernel: entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e kernel: RIP: 0033:0x7f815e134c8d kernel: RSP: 002b:00007fff6df94ea8 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 00000000000001cc kernel: RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 0000556d8c81d040 RCX: 00007f815e134c8d kernel: RDX: 0000000000000046 RSI: 0000556d8c81d040 RDI: 0000000000000064 kernel: RBP: 00007fff6df94ef0 R08: 00007f815e212ac8 R09: 000000000000000c kernel: R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 0000556d8c81d010 kernel: R13: 0000000000000026 R14: 0000000000000046 R15: 0000000000000064 kernel: </TASK> kernel: INFO: task hat:3409 is blocked on a mutex likely owned by task hat:3409.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb: smbdirect: release pending child sockets outside the handler lock smbdirect_socket_destroy() releases the listener's pending/ready child sockets while still holding the listener's handler lock, the &id_priv->handler_mutex taken via rdma_lock_handler(), not sc->listen.lock, and before the listener's own rdma_destroy_id(). That ordering has one real consequence and one cosmetic one. The real one: smbdirect_socket_release() drops the child's last reference, which destroys the child's cm_id. Doing that before the listener's rdma_destroy_id() lets _cma_cancel_listens(), running from the listener's _destroy_id(), walk an already freed child id_priv, which KASAN catches as a slab-use-after-free during listener shutdown: [ 4758.909130] BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __mutex_lock+0x1469/0x1560 [ 4758.911450] Read of size 1 at addr ffff88821c381db4 by task ksmbd.control/1652 [ 4758.913262] Call Trace: [ 4758.913267] <TASK> [ 4758.913299] __mutex_lock+0x1469/0x1560 [ 4758.913408] _cma_cancel_listens+0x312/0x3b0 [ 4758.913413] _destroy_id+0x363/0xee0 [ 4758.913417] smbdirect_socket_destroy_sync+0x17d5/0x2440 [ 4758.913443] smbdirect_socket_release+0x124/0x230 [ 4758.913451] ksmbd_rdma_stop_listening+0x9f/0x190 [ 4758.913457] ksmbd_conn_transport_destroy+0x65/0x3c0 [ 4758.913463] kill_server_store+0x1fb/0x2b0 [ 4758.913501] kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x349/0x4d0 [ 4758.913507] vfs_write+0x5e7/0xc70 [ 4758.913528] ksys_write+0x12a/0x210 [ 4758.913541] do_syscall_64+0x135/0x460 [ 4758.913555] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f The cosmetic one: releasing a child recurses into smbdirect_socket_destroy(), which takes the child's own rdma_lock_handler() lock nested under the listener's.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: free preauth sessions on connection teardown SMB3.1.1 multichannel binding preserves the preauthentication hash in a preauth_session between the NTLM negotiate and authenticate requests. The binding NTLM negotiate allocates this object and returns STATUS_MORE_PROCESSING_REQUIRED. If the client disconnects before it sends the authenticate request, neither the authenticate nor error cleanup paths free the object. Release any remaining preauthentication sessions when tearing down the connection. Initialize the list when allocating the connection so that this cleanup is safe regardless of the negotiated dialect.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: serialize oplock close with pending break ownership close may abort an in-flight oplock break while another breaker already holds an opinfo reference. Releasing pending_break wakes that waiter, but without serializing the close transition with bit acquisition it can become a new break owner through the test_and_set_bit() fast path. It can then overwrite OPLOCK_CLOSING with OPLOCK_ACK_WAIT and continue a break for a dying opinfo. Make OPLOCK_CLOSING terminal once the opinfo is removed from the inode list. Serialize that transition, pending_break acquisition, and OPLOCK_ACK_WAIT setup with an opinfo state lock. A breaker which loses the race releases its ownership and returns -ENOENT. Explicitly wake pending_break waiters during close so they can observe the terminal state. Also prevent ACK and timeout paths from replacing OPLOCK_CLOSING with OPLOCK_STATE_NONE.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb/server: fix null-ptr-deref in ksmbd_ipc_tree_connect_request() See the procedure below: ksmbd_tree_conn_connect ksmbd_share_config_get share->name = kstrdup() // fail if (!test_share_config_flag(share, KSMBD_SHARE_FLAG_PIPE)) // false // do not check `share->name` ksmbd_ipc_tree_connect_request strlen(share->name) // null-ptr-deref

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb/server: fix invalid pointer dereference in ksmbd_stop_durable_scavenger() See the procedure below: ksmbd_launch_ksmbd_durable_scavenger durable_scavenger_running = true server_conf.dh_task = kthread_run() // fail, dh_task is an ERR_PTR() server_ctrl_handle_reset ksmbd_stop_durable_scavenger kthread_stop(server_conf.dh_task) // invalid pointer

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb/server: abort initialization when proc setup fails ksmbd_server_init() calls ksmbd_proc_init() before creating the remaining proc entries and server subsystems. ksmbd_proc_init() tears down partial state on a procfs or percpu_counter allocation failure, but returns void, so ksmbd_server_init() continues as if the counters were usable. Once userspace starts the server, server_ctrl_handle_init() calls ksmbd_proc_reset(), which reaches percpu_counter_set() with a NULL per-CPU counters pointer on SMP systems. The later ksmbd_proc_create() calls also receive a NULL parent and may create entries in the /proc root; ksmbd_proc_cleanup() cannot remove those entries because ksmbd_proc_fs is NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb/server: call ksmbd_proc_cleanup() on module init failure When a later initializer fails, the unwind chain releases resources created after procfs and then jumps directly to class_unregister(). Returning an error from module_init() leaves the proc tree and its per-CPU counters allocated.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: lwt_bpf: Restore reserved headroom after xmit program ip_finish_output2() expands an skb to LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) before LWT xmit. An LWT_XMIT BPF program can then modify the skb head and still return BPF_OK, so bpf_xmit() rechecks the remaining headroom before the skb continues to neighbour output. That recheck uses dst->dev->hard_header_len. This is not enough for the neighbour cached-header path: neigh_hh_output() copies the cached hardware header using the aligned hh_cache size, HH_DATA_MOD for short headers or HH_DATA_ALIGN(hh_len) otherwise. On Ethernet, hard_header_len is 14 but the cached copy needs 16 bytes. If an LWT_XMIT BPF program calls bpf_skb_change_head(skb, 1, 0), the skb can still have 15 bytes of headroom after the program. The existing check accepts that, after which neigh_hh_output() hits its headroom warning and drops the skb. Use LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dst->dev) in the post-BPF headroom check to match the reservation made before LWT xmit.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Disallow bpf_{g,s}etsockopt() in cgroup UNIX getname hooks _bpf_setsockopt() and _bpf_getsockopt() call sock_owned_by_me() for full sockets, so these helpers expect the socket lock to be held. BPF_CGROUP_UNIX_GETPEERNAME and BPF_CGROUP_UNIX_GETSOCKNAME run BPF programs without acquiring the socket lock. A program attached to either hook can therefore trigger the sock_owned_by_me() warning by calling bpf_setsockopt() or bpf_getsockopt(). Disallow bpf_setsockopt() and bpf_getsockopt() for CGROUP_UNIX_GETPEERNAME and CGROUP_UNIX_GETSOCKNAME.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: m68k: nfcon: Do not call console_is_registered() in nfcon_device() Since 7c2af0f634f1 ("tty: tty_io: use console_list_lock for list synchronization") show_cons_active() calls the .device() method under the console_list_lock, but console_is_registered() tries to acquire console_list_lock as well, causing a deadlock. It should not be necessary to check console_is_registered() here since the function should not be called in the fist place when the console is not registered.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Reject negative optlen in cgroup getsockopt hook A cgroup getsockopt BPF program can shrink ctx->optlen after the kernel getsockopt handler has run. The kernel-buffer variant, used by TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE, only rejects values larger than the original length. If BPF writes a negative optlen, that value is accepted and propagated back to the TCP getsockopt code. It can then be passed to copy_to_sockptr() as a size_t and trigger the hardened usercopy bytes > INT_MAX warning. Reject negative ctx.optlen in __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_getsockopt_kern(), matching the lower-bound validation already present in the sockptr-based getsockopt hook.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: safely discard unregistered deferred locks When vfs_lock_file() defers a lock, smb2_lock() puts its ksmbd_lock on rollback_list before allocating and registering the asynchronous work. If either operation fails, rollback assumes that smb_lock->conn is initialized and dereferences NULL. The deferred file_lock also remains linked into the VFS blocked-lock state while it is freed. Keep the lock off rollback_list until async setup succeeds. On setup failures, explicitly unblock and wake the deferred lock before freeing it and its ksmbd wrapper.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: detach blocked lock requests before freeing A file_lock retained by ksmbd for byte-range lock bookkeeping can still be part of the VFS blocked-request graph. In particular, the VFS can chain a new waiter below an already blocked request through flc_blocked_requests. The ksmbd_file reference count does not cover that graph. Both __ksmbd_close_fd() and the cross-request unlock path free these retained file_lock objects directly. If a dependent waiter is still attached, locks_release_private() hits BUG_ON(!list_empty(&flc->flc_blocked_requests)). The same lifetime mismatch can leave a freed ksmbd_lock reachable through its request-local llist. Detach the file_lock from the blocked-request graph before freeing it in the close, cross-request unlock, and rollback paths. locks_delete_block() also wakes requests chained below the object. Remove llist when a completed lock is published so a globally visible ksmbd_lock no longer points into the submitting worker's stack.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: scope session state changes to bound connections ksmbd_all_conn_set_status() treats every connection whose transient binding flag is set as belonging to the target SessionId. A logoff or session replacement can consequently move an unrelated connection to NEED_RECONNECT or NEED_SETUP. Pass the target session itself and select connections using either the connection-local session xarray or the session's permanent channel list. Use the same association test while waiting for requests to drain. Serialize session-wide status changes under request_lock and do not overwrite EXITING or RELEASING. Protect the shutdown transition with the same lock so a concurrent session update cannot revive a closing connection.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb/server: fix session leak in ksmbd_session_register() See the procedure below: smb2_sess_setup ksmbd_smb2_session_create __session_create atomic_set(&sess->refcnt, 2) hash_add(sessions_table, &sess->hlist, sess->id) ksmbd_session_register xa_store(&conn->sessions, sess->id, sess) // fail ksmbd_user_session_put atomic_dec(&sess->refcnt) // refcnt is 1, session is not freed Remove the session from sessions_table and drop its table reference if xa_store() fails.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pnfs/blocklayout: Fix device leaks on parse failure bl_parse_concat() and bl_parse_stripe() allocate a child device array and then parse each child in turn. If parsing a child fails, the failed child is not counted in nr_children and the parent may be left with a children array that bl_free_device() will not release when nr_children is zero. Release the failed child and the already parsed children before returning the error. Also make bl_free_device() release the child array whenever the children pointer is set, so that partially initialised concat or stripe devices are cleaned up correctly. bl_parse_scsi() can also fail after assigning d->bdev_file and dropping the file reference. Clear the pointer after fput() so that an outer cleanup path does not put it again.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: clk: devres: fix cleanup in devm_clk_get_optional_enabled_with_rate() devm_clk_get_optional_enabled_with_rate() registers its cleanup action before setting the clock rate. If setting the rate fails, it attempts to disable and unprepare a clock that was never enabled. This issue was spotted while reviewing "rust: clk: add devres-managed clks" [1]. Register the cleanup action only after successfully preparing and enabling the clock. [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/rust-for-linux/20260706-clk-type-state-v5-3-67c5f326a16c@collabora.com

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cuse: wait for pending RCU callbacks on module exit Since commit 053fc4f755ad ("fuse: fix UAF in rcu pathwalks"), fuse_conn_put() frees the fuse_conn through call_rcu() rather than synchronously. For cuse, fc->release is cuse_fc_release(), which lives in the cuse module. If the module is removed before the RCU grace period ends, the callback jumps into freed module memory: userspace / module unload | RCU softirq ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ close(/dev/cuse) | cuse_channel_release() | fuse_dev_release() | fuse_conn_put(fch->conn) | call_rcu(delayed_release) ------+---> callback queued | rmmod cuse | cuse_exit() | cuse_channel_destroy() | ... | return | | <module text freed> | | rcu_do_batch() | delayed_release() | fc->release() | -> cuse_fc_release() | ^^^ freed text! The freed module text is unmapped by vfree(), so the jump into the stale callback triggers a page-fault Oops. If the virtual address is subsequently reused, the callback could execute unrelated code (undefined behaviour). Fix this by calling rcu_barrier() in cuse_exit() so that any pending fuse_conn release callback completes before the module is removed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vsock: don't check the listener's sk_err in vsock_accept() Syzbot reported an issue which can be reproduced with these steps: r0 = socket(AF_VSOCK, SOCK_STREAM, 0) bind(r0, {VMADDR_CID_ANY, PORT}) connect(r0, {VMADDR_CID_LOCAL, PORT}) -> -1, EPROTO (self-connect) listen(r0, backlog) -> 0 r1 = socket(AF_VSOCK, SOCK_STREAM, 0) connect(r1, {VMADDR_CID_LOCAL, PORT}) -> 0 accept(r0) -> -1, EPROTO (stale sk_err) Basically, it creates a socket (r0) and triggers a self-connect after binding it. This self-connect fails with EPROTO because it loops back to r0 while the socket is still in the TCP_SYN_SENT state, causing it to be incorrectly dispatched to the connecting-client path. The unexpected packet type encountered there sets sk_err to EPROTO. After that, it invokes a listen() call on the same socket. This listen() call succeeds because the kernel's listening path never inspects or clears sk_err. Then, a new socket (r1) is created as a normal client and connects to r0. However, vsock_accept() rejects this incoming connection because the listener's sk_err still holds the EPROTO error from the earlier failed self-connect. This rejection causes the child socket created for r1's connection to never be freed on virtio or hyperv transports; only the VMCI transport implements pending_work to revisit and clean up a rejected socket. For a non-blocking connect(), vsock_connect() may return -EINPROGRESS immediately, and vsock_connect_timeout() can later set sk->sk_err asynchronously. Since no vsock transport ever sets sk_err on a socket while it is in TCP_LISTEN state, checking it in vsock_accept() serves no purpose and only carries forward errors left behind by earlier, unrelated connection attempts on the same socket. Remove the checks so accept() no longer rejects valid incoming connections because of a stale error, which also avoids the resource leak described above.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: platform/x86/amd/hsmp: Reject negative power cap writes in hwmon hsmp_hwmon_write() takes the user-supplied hwmon value as a signed long and assigns "val / MICROWATT_PER_MILLIWATT" to msg.args[0], which is a __u32. MICROWATT_PER_MILLIWATT is an unsigned long, so a negative write to power1_cap (e.g. "echo -1 > power1_cap") is first converted to a huge unsigned value by the division and then stored into the u32 argument. As a result a nonsensical, multi-gigawatt socket power limit is sent to the SMU via HSMP_SET_SOCKET_POWER_LIMIT instead of the write being rejected. Reject negative values with -EINVAL before the conversion. Tested with HSMP enabled: CAP=$(dirname $(grep -l amd_hsmp_hwmon \ /sys/class/hwmon/hwmon*/name | head -1))/power1_cap # negative write echo -1000000 > $CAP ; echo "ret=$?" # valid positive write must still work echo 400000000 > $CAP ; echo "ret=$?" Before: # echo -1000000 > $CAP ; echo "ret=$?" ret=0 <- accepted; bogus limit sent to SMU # echo 400000000 > $CAP ; echo "ret=$?" ret=0 After: # echo -1000000 > $CAP ; echo "ret=$?" bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument ret=1 <- rejected with -EINVAL # echo 400000000 > $CAP ; echo "ret=$?" ret=0 <- valid write still works

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ntfs: fix kmap_local_page() usage in compress Several compressed I/O paths discard the address returned by kmap_local_page() and later access or unmap the page using page_address(). This is invalid for highmem pages, and local mappings must also be unmapped using the address returned by kmap_local_page(). Map each destination page in ntfs_decompress() only while producing the current sub-block. Use memcpy_from_page(), memcpy_to_page(), and memzero_page() for the other page accesses. Remove unnecessary local mappings from ntfs_write_cb(), where pages are accessed through the vmap() mapping.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vdpa_sim: fix cleanup after worker creation failure vdpasim_create() leaves vdpasim->worker as an ERR_PTR when kthread_run_worker() fails. The error path then drops the device reference, which releases the partially initialized simulator. vdpasim_free() unconditionally passes the worker pointer to kthread_destroy_worker(), so the ERR_PTR is dereferenced and can trigger a general protection fault. Store the worker error, clear the pointer, and only clean up the worker when it was successfully initialized. Also make the release path tolerate partially initialized objects by guarding virtqueue and IOTLB cleanup, since the same release path can be reached from other initialization failures. I found this bug myself, though the patch was written with AI assistance.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: virtio_balloon: quiesce balloon work before device shutdown Commit 8bd2fa086a04 ("virtio: break and reset virtio devices on device_shutdown()") added a generic virtio bus .shutdown handler that breaks and resets every virtio device during device_shutdown(), i.e. on reboot and kexec. virtio_balloon provides no .shutdown of its own, so that generic path runs while the balloon's asynchronous work is still armed. Once the device has been broken, virtqueue_add_inbuf() in virtballoon_free_page_report() returns -EIO and trips its WARN_ON_ONCE(). On a kernel booted with panic_on_warn that turns an ordinary reboot, for example a kexec based upgrade, into a fatal panic in the middle of device_shutdown(), so the machine never reaches the new kernel. Relaxing that single WARN_ON_ONCE() would only hide the symptom: the inflate/deflate and OOM paths do not warn, they call wait_event(vb->acked, ...) and would instead block forever on a broken queue that can no longer complete. The device has to be quiesced, not just kept quiet. Add a .shutdown handler that quiesces the balloon via the shared virtballoon_quiesce() helper while the device is still alive, and only then breaks and resets it via virtio_device_shutdown(). Unlike virtballoon_remove() the balloon workqueue is not destroyed, as shutdown does not free the device and cancel_work_sync() together with stop_update already prevent any further work from being queued.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vdpa/mlx5: fix wrong list iterated in add_direct_chain error path In add_direct_chain(), newly allocated direct MR entries are added to the local list 'tmp', which is spliced into mr->head only on success. On the error path, the cleanup loop was incorrectly iterating over mr->head instead of tmp. Fix by iterating over 'tmp' in the err_alloc cleanup path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: virtio: rtc: time out alarm requests RTC class operations run with rtc_device.ops_lock held. The virtio RTC alarm requests currently wait without a timeout for the device to return their requestq buffers. On surprise removal, virtio-pci marks the virtqueues broken before unregistering the virtio device. If an alarm request is waiting when the device stops responding, viortc_remove() blocks in viortc_class_stop() while trying to acquire ops_lock. The request cannot complete and device removal hangs until the waiting task is signalled. Use the same 60-second timeout as clock read requests for alarm reads, alarm programming, and alarm interrupt enable requests. The existing message reference counting keeps a timed-out request alive until a late response or device teardown.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rtc: pcf8563: fix clock provider leak on unbind pcf8563_clkout_register_clk() registers the CLKOUT clock provider with of_clk_add_provider(), but nothing ever unwinds it: there is no of_clk_del_provider() call and the driver has no remove callback. Each of_clk_add_provider() allocates a struct of_clk_provider, takes a reference on the OF node and adds an entry to the global of_clk_providers list, none of which is released when the device is unbound. Every bind/unbind (or module reload) therefore leaks a provider structure and an of_node reference. The clock itself is already device-managed (devm_clk_register()); only the provider registration was not. Use devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider() so the provider is removed automatically on unbind. Tie it to the parent i2c device, whose OF node carries the #clock-cells and clock-output-names properties (the RTC class device has no OF node of its own).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb: client: fix request buffer leak in smb2_new_read_req() smb2_new_read_req() allocates the request buffer with smb2_plain_req_init() but only publishes it to the caller with *buf = req at the very end of the function. Two error returns sit in between: rc = smb2_plain_req_init(SMB2_READ, io_parms->tcon, server, (void **) &req, total_len); if (rc) return rc; if (server == NULL) return -ECONNABORTED; [...] rdata->mr = smbd_register_mr(server->smbd_conn, &rdata->subreq.io_iter, true, need_invalidate); if (!rdata->mr) return -EAGAIN; On either of them the buffer is neither released nor handed back, so it is leaked. The caller cannot clean up after it: smb2_async_readv() does 'goto out' on a non-zero return, which skips the cifs_small_buf_release(buf) at async_readv_out, and buf has not been assigned at that point in any case. The write path has never had this problem. smb2_async_writev() registers the memory region inline and jumps to its release label instead of returning: wdata->mr = smbd_register_mr(...); if (!wdata->mr) { rc = -EAGAIN; goto async_writev_out; } Commit b7972092199f ("cifs: smbd: Retry on memory registration failure") changed both sides from -ENOBUFS to -EAGAIN in a single patch, which puts the two shapes next to each other. Only the -EAGAIN return is reachable in practice, because smb2_plain_req_init() calls smb2_reconnect() first and that already fails with -EIO when server is NULL, before anything is allocated. Both returns are given the same treatment here rather than leaving one of them correct only by accident. Because -EAGAIN is a replayable error, the failure also reaches the retry block at the end of smb2_async_readv(), which marks the subrequest NETFS_SREQ_NEED_RETRY, so a failing registration can be retried rather than ending the I/O, and every attempt that reaches it leaks another buffer. smb2_should_replay() short-circuits on tcon->retry, so on a hard mount the attempt count is not bounded by the retrans setting. Only the asynchronous read path is affected. The synchronous SMB2_read() caller passes rdata == NULL and the memory registration block is guarded on rdata. The memory registration failure path was pointed out by the Sashiko AI reviewer while it was reviewing an unrelated patch to smb2_async_readv().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: irqchip/renesas-rzg2l: Fix loss of interrupt rzg2l_clear_irq_int() and rzg2l_clear_tint_int() perform a read-modify-write on the ISCR/TSCR status registers to clear the bit for the interrupt just handled. Since these registers are write-0-to-clear per bit, this is racy: If another interrupt's status bit gets set between the read and the write, that bit is written back as 0 by the software-constructed value, clearing an interrupt that hasn't been serviced yet and losing it. This can be reproduced by triggering multiple interrupts at once, e.g.: gpioset -c gpiochip0 355=0 353=0 328=0 352=0 Fix this by writing back only the bit being cleared, with all other bits set to 1, instead of read-modify-writing the whole register. Since 1-bits are left unchanged by hardware, concurrently-set status bits for other interrupts are preserved.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: irqchip/ast2700-intc: Avoid allocating in the irq_domain activate() callback The interrupt core calls the irq_domain_activate() callback from __setup_irq() with desc->lock held and interrupts disabled. Both aspeed_intc1_irq_domain_activate() and aspeed_intc0_resolve_route() test a compatible string with fwnode_device_is_compatible(). fwnode_device_is_compatible() invokes fwnode_property_match_string(), which allocates with GFP_KERNEL. That's obviously not possible with interrupts disabled and a raw spinlock held. Both call sites are only ever handed OF nodes, so use of_device_is_compatible() instead: it walks the property in place and does not allocate.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: irqchip/gic-v5: Clear per-CPU IRS data on teardown IRS affinity setup publishes an IRS pointer and IAFFID state in the per-CPU data before the remaining IRS initialization can fail. The error path then frees the IRS data without clearing that published state, leaving CPUs associated with freed memory. On initialization failure and normal IRS teardown, clear the per-CPU IRS association by removing the stale pointer to irs_data. Also invalidate the per-CPU IAFFID state for any CPUs that were tied to the IRS before it was freed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: ice1712: Fix the card leak at probe error with the auto-cleanup snd_ice1712_probe() performs multiple initialization steps after snd_card_new(), but directly returns on failures from later steps without releasing the ALSA card, causing resource leaks when probing fails. Use snd_devm_card_new() together with scope-based cleanup via __free(snd_card_unref), and clear the card pointer after successful registration to keep it alive.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ntfs: validate usa_ofs before preserving the update sequence number When ntfs_mft_record_alloc() reuses a free mft record it reads the old update sequence number straight from the on-disk record: usn = *(__le16 *)((u8 *)m + le16_to_cpu(m->usa_ofs)); Here m points into the raw $MFT page-cache folio, which still holds unvalidated, MST-protected bytes: the folio is read by a plain iomap_read_folio() and neither post_read_mst_fixup() nor ntfs_mft_record_check() has run on it (both work on private copies). m->usa_ofs is therefore an untrusted u16, and a corrupted record can put it past the end of the record so the two-byte read lands outside the folio. Reading such a record while creating a file gives, under KASAN: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ntfs_mft_record_alloc+... Read of size 2 at addr ... ntfs_mft_record_alloc -> __ntfs_create -> ntfs_create -> path_openat Only preserve the old update sequence number when usa_ofs is even and in range, mirroring the check ntfs_mft_record_check() already applies; otherwise leave usn zero, which the existing restore below skips.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: mtpav: shut down output timer before card teardown snd_mtpav_output_timer() rearms chip->timer while holding chip->spinlock and accesses the card-private mtpav state. snd_mtpav_free() currently takes the same lock and calls timer_delete() when the timer is active. This only removes a pending timer; it does not wait for a callback that is already running and does not prevent the callback from rearming the timer. A callback running on another CPU can therefore continue after snd_mtpav_free() releases the lock and access the card-private state while the card is being torn down. It can also rearm the timer after timer_delete() has returned. Call timer_shutdown_sync() without holding chip->spinlock. This waits for any running callback to finish and prevents further rearming before the card-private mtpav state is released.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: bridge: Reject descending VLAN tunnel ranges A pair of descending VLAN and tunnel IDs can pass the tunnel range span check. The VLAN subtraction produces a negative int, which is converted to unsigned when compared with the u32 tunnel ID subtraction. It can therefore equal the wrapped tunnel ID delta. The range loop then performs no iterations. Since the batched notification handling added a post-loop error check, this leaves err uninitialized and makes the request's return value unpredictable. Reject descending VLAN ranges before comparing the spans. Valid ascending and single-entry ranges remain unchanged, while malformed descending ranges consistently return -EINVAL. This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by manual source review.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netdevsim: update queue NAPI association on queue reset In netdevsim, receive queues (struct nsim_rq) embed their own struct napi_struct. When queue reset is performed (e.g. via queue_reset debugfs), nsim_queue_start() swaps in a newly allocated struct nsim_rq, and nsim_queue_mem_free() later deletes and frees the old one. However, nsim_queue_start() failed to update the queue-to-NAPI mapping via netif_queue_set_napi(). As a result, dev->_rx[idx].napi continued to point to the old NAPI struct. After the old queue was freed, a subsequent queue dump via Netlink (NETDEV_CMD_QUEUE_GET) triggered a KASAN slab-use-after-free read in nla_put_napi_id() when accessing rxq->napi->napi_id. Fix this by calling netif_queue_set_napi() in nsim_queue_start() to associate the new NAPI with the RX queue, and clear the association with netif_queue_set_napi(..., NULL) in nsim_del_napi() during teardown.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: qlcnic: validate unified ROM sections before loading The unified ROM parser reads directory, product, and data-descriptor fields from the firmware file. Existing validation forms table and data ends with unchecked additions and multiplications. Malformed values can wrap before they are compared with the firmware size. The parser also dereferences typed pointers at firmware-controlled offsets. Valid descriptor extents alone are insufficient for the consumers. The loader reads a fixed-size bootloader regardless of its declared size, the version parser assumes a 17-byte tail, and a partial final firmware word is read as a full u64. A truncated image can therefore make the driver read beyond the firmware allocation during validation or loading. Replace the pointer-returning parser with bounded range helpers. Validate table entry sizes, descriptor indices, section ranges, the fixed bootloader load length, and the version tail before exposing any section. Read all file fields with unaligned little-endian accessors and assemble a partial final word from only the bytes that remain. Apply the same range checks to the legacy image before reading its fixed fields.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: sched: fix 32-bit backlog wrap in gred, bfifo and plug enqueue gred_enqueue(), bfifo_enqueue() and plug_enqueue() admit a packet when the current backlog plus the packet length fits within the queue limit: sch->qstats.backlog + qdisc_pkt_len(skb) <= sch->limit (gred default VQ) gred_backlog+qdisc_pkt_len(skb) <= q->limit (gred configured VQ) sch->qstats.backlog + qdisc_pkt_len(skb) <= sch->limit (bfifo) sch->qstats.backlog + skb->len <= q->limit (plug) sch->qstats.backlog and q->backlog are u32, and qdisc_pkt_len()/skb->len are unsigned int, so all sums are computed in 32 bits and wrap at 2^32. Once the true backlog exceeds 4 GiB the wrapped sum becomes small and admission keeps succeeding, so the queue grows without bound and the kernel can be driven to OOM. Promote the sums to u64 so admission stops once the true backlog exceeds the limit. The limit is u32, so the bounded queue stays below 2^32 and the stored u32 backlog never wraps. The bug can only be reproduced as root (albeit with ridiculous setup): attach a gred (or bfifo/plug) qdisc with a limit near 4 GiB, leaving the default VQ unconfigured (for gred), and drive >4 GiB of queued traffic (e.g. via a size table / stab to inflate qdisc_pkt_len, or sustained high-rate traffic). The u32 backlog+len sum wraps at 2^32, admission keeps succeeding, and the queue grows unboundedly to OOM.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/smc: free stashed qentry before overwrite in REQ_ADD_LINK to ADD_LINK transition When smc_llc_event_handler() transitions the local LLC flow from SMC_LLC_FLOW_REQ_ADD_LINK to SMC_LLC_FLOW_ADD_LINK on arrival of an ADD_LINK request, it calls smc_llc_flow_qentry_set() unconditionally: if (lgr->llc_flow_lcl.type == SMC_LLC_FLOW_REQ_ADD_LINK) { lgr->llc_flow_lcl.type = SMC_LLC_FLOW_ADD_LINK; smc_llc_flow_qentry_set(&lgr->llc_flow_lcl, qentry); ... } A CONFIRM_LINK or ADD_LINK_CONT arriving while flow->type is SMC_LLC_FLOW_REQ_ADD_LINK is stashed into flow->qentry via the SMC_LLC_CONFIRM_LINK / SMC_LLC_ADD_LINK_CONT handler (which stores into flow->qentry for any non-NONE flow type). When the subsequent ADD_LINK arrives, the REQ_ADD_LINK branch overwrites flow->qentry with the new pointer without first freeing the stashed allocation, leaking one kmalloc object. The stashed entry has no consumer: smc_llc_wait() is only called from llc_add_link_work, which is not yet scheduled while the flow type remains REQ_ADD_LINK. No waiter is sleeping on llc_msg_waiter at this point. It is safe to unconditionally free any stashed qentry before the overwrite. Call smc_llc_flow_qentry_del() before smc_llc_flow_qentry_set() in the REQ_ADD_LINK branch. smc_llc_flow_qentry_del() already checks flow->qentry before freeing, so the normal path where no entry is stashed is a no-op.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/smc: free pending qentry in smc_llc_flow_stop() before memset smc_llc_flow_stop() resets a flow struct with a blind memset: spin_lock_bh(&lgr->llc_flow_lock); memset(flow, 0, sizeof(*flow)); flow->type = SMC_LLC_FLOW_NONE; spin_unlock_bh(&lgr->llc_flow_lock); If flow->qentry is non-NULL at this point the pointer is overwritten without the allocation being freed, leaking one kmalloc object. A late-arriving duplicate CONFIRM_LINK or ADD_LINK_CONT message can set flow->qentry after the legitimate message has been consumed by the waiter via smc_llc_flow_qentry_clr() (which NULLs the pointer but leaves flow->type non-zero) but before the flow completes and smc_llc_flow_stop() runs. In that window the duplicate is stashed into flow->qentry, and then lost when smc_llc_flow_stop() zeros the struct. Call smc_llc_flow_qentry_del() inside the lock before the memset. smc_llc_flow_qentry_del() already checks flow->qentry before freeing, so the normal case where no entry is pending is a no-op.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: bridge: arp/nd proxy: fix reading neigh ha Currently neigh ha address is read directly, but that can result in torn/partial reads if the neigh is being updated. Use neigh_ha_snapshot to take a stable snapshot of the address.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vxlan: fix reading neigh ha Currently arp/neigh_reduce read neigh ha directly which can lead to partial reads while the neigh is being updated. Use neigh_ha_snapshot to take a stable snapshot of the address similar to route_shortcircuit which already does the right thing.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ptp: netc: fix period truncation and potential divide-by-zero in PEROUT The max_period bound in net_timer_enable_perout() was computed as: max_period = (u64)NETC_TMR_DEFAULT_FIPER + integral_period; which exceeds U32_MAX when integral_period > 0 (e.g. 0x100000002 for the default 333333333 Hz clock). A period_ns that passes this check but exceeds U32_MAX is then silently truncated when stored into the u32 struct netc_pp::period field. A truncated value of zero can reach netc_timer_set_perout_alarm(), where the local u32 period variable would also be 0, causing a divide-by-zero in roundup_u64(delta, period) whenever the stime < min_time branch is taken (which always happens for a start time of {0, 0}). Additionally, netc_timer_enable_periodic_pulse() and netc_timer_enable_fiper() both compute: fiper = pp->period - integral_period; A zero pp->period results in an unsigned wraparound to 0xFFFFFFFD, mis-programming the FIPER hardware register. Fix all three issues by capping max_period at NETC_TMR_DEFAULT_FIPER (0xFFFFFFFF). This ensures that any period_ns passing the range check fits in a u32 without truncation, so the stored value is always valid and non-zero. The accepted range is reduced by integral_period ns (typically only a few nanoseconds), which is negligible in practice.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: account classifier filter allocations to memcg Allocations in the tc classifier *_change() paths (filter objects, per-CPU counters, and per-filter aux data) use plain GFP_KERNEL without __GFP_ACCOUNT, allowing unprivileged users to pin kernel memory outside memcg charging. The shared tcf_exts_init_ex() action array allocation in cls_api.c was also uncharged; this patch closes it along with the per-classifier filter-object/percpu/aux allocations that remain unaccounted. Add GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT to: - the shared tcf_exts_init_ex() action array (cls_api.c), common to every filter of every classifier (32 pointers, 256 bytes); - the filter-object, per-CPU-counter, and per-filter aux allocations in cls_basic, cls_bpf, cls_cgroup, cls_flow, cls_flower, cls_fw, cls_matchall, cls_route and cls_u32; - the u32_init_knode() replace-path knode allocation (cls_u32.c), which allocates the same struct tc_u_knode + sel.keys on every replace of an existing knode and was missed by the create-path-only conversion. Also fix the cls_basic error path: basic_change() inserts fnew into the IDR before allocating the per-CPU counter. If alloc_percpu() fails the errout path kfree'd fnew without idr_remove, leaving a dangling pointer in the IDR. With GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT the percpu alloc becomes failable on demand (memcg at memory.max), making the dead path attacker-reachable and burning the handle permanently. Add the idr_remove on the percpu failure path, matching the basic_set_parms failure-path pattern. Note: vega@nebusec.ai provided a poc for basic_cls, but it was easy to extend to the other classifiers. Conditions to recreate the bug: - CONFIG_NET_SCHED, CONFIG_NET_CLS_* (the classifier being used), CONFIG_NET_CLS_ACT, CONFIG_MEMCG, CONFIG_USER_NS, CONFIG_NET_NS. - Unprivileged user in a fresh user+network namespace (unshare -Urn), or root with CAP_NET_ADMIN. - Create a large number of tc filters (e.g. tc filter add dev lo ingress ... <classifier> ...) while watching a memcg-limited cgroup: system slab grows far faster than memory.current, pinning kernel memory outside memcg charging.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: sparx5: fix sleep in atomic context in MAC table access sparx5_set_rx_mode() runs with netif_addr_lock_bh held and iterates dev->mc via __dev_mc_sync(), which per address calls sparx5_mc_sync() / sparx5_mc_unsync() -> sparx5_mact_learn() / sparx5_mact_forget(). These take sparx5->lock, a mutex, and then poll the MAC access command register with readx_poll_timeout(). A mutex may block, which is not allowed from atomic context. Convert the driver to the new .ndo_set_rx_mode_async callback introduced in commit 3554b4345d85 ("net: introduce ndo_set_rx_mode_async and netdev_rx_mode_work"). The async callback is invoked from process context, so the mutex and sleeping completion poll can remain.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Drivers: hv: vmbus: Skip VMBus module cleanup for non-nested root partition The VMBus module initialization function, hv_acpi_init(), currently does nothing when running in the root partition and root is not nested in another VM. But the initialization function reports success, so the VMBus module is indeed loaded. VMBus functionality is not actually needed, but the VMBus module must be loaded so that hv_vmbus_exists() can answer correctly. Furthermore, the mshv_root dependency on the VMBus module is needed as described in the commit message for 840b740a35bf ("mshv: Add conditional VMBus dependency"). Loading the VMBus module without actually initializing it causes failures if the module should later be unloaded. The module unload code tries to clean up things that were never initialized, resulting in memory faults and a panic. Fix this by having VMBus module exit function perform the same check for non-nested root partition, and do nothing in such a case, just like hv_acpi_init(). In the long run, the code that manages the Hyper-V provided SynIC should be refactored to better coordinate the requirements of root partition scenarios and normal VM scenarios, and to hopefully remove the hv_vmbus_exists() dependnecy between mshv_root and VMBus modules. Preventing the current unload failure scenario is an expediency until such a refactoring is done.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fuse: invalidate the correct range after O_APPEND direct write fuse_direct_write_iter() captures pos before generic_write_checks(), which moves ki_pos to EOF for O_APPEND writes: fuse_direct_write_iter() { pos = iocb->ki_pos; /* 0 (user-supplied) */ generic_write_checks(); /* ki_pos -> EOF */ fuse_direct_io(); /* writes at EOF, correct */ invalidate(pos, pos + res); /* [0, res) -- wrong */ } The post-write invalidation targets a stale range instead of the actual written range at EOF. This can cause data inconsistency when the file size is not page-aligned. The tail page straddling EOF has a valid portion before EOF that concurrent readers can fault back in during the DIO write window: Tail page (file size X not page-aligned): page_start X (EOF) page_end |--- valid data ----|-- stale --| CPU0 (O_APPEND DIO writer) CPU1 (buffered reader) -------------------------- ---------------------- invalidate [X, X+len) tail page evicted FUSE_WRITE in flight ... read [page_start, X) tail page re-faulted [X, page_end) = stale FUSE_WRITE completes i_size = X + len invalidate [0, len) <- WRONG tail page still cached read [X, X+len) hits stale tail page returns old data Fix by reading pos back from iocb->ki_pos after generic_write_checks(), as generic_file_direct_write() does. Also fix a typo in the comment ("may have" -> "may have competed").

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fuse: Fix the condition to enable over-io-uring The existing condition in fuse_uring_cmd() is there only to avoid disabling io-uring for connections that already run with it, missing was a condition to refuse any IORING_OP_URING_CMD if the connection/channel didn't get enabled because of missing FUSE_INIT reply flag FUSE_OVER_IO_URING. Without the reply flag the barrier in fuse_uring_ready() doesn't work and IO could already be going on and cause deadlock states (at a minimum one between fch->bg_lock and queue->lock). The change itself is trivial, but brings behavior change, FUSE_OVER_IO_URING has to be set in the FUSE_INIT_REPLY by fuse servers to accept any IORING_OP_URING_CMD. Libfuse does that and the only non-libfuse implementation I found (fractal-fuse) also does it. Qemu patches for fuse-io-uring are not merged yet, as far as I know. Moved up is the smp_load_acquire(&fch->initialized) check, as a fuse-server implementation might try to setup io-uring before FUSE_INIT is processed and might have gotten -EOPNOTSUPP instead of -EAGAIN. Also fixed is a stale comment that explains the handling of the FUSE_OVER_IO_URING flag in early RFC versions. If there should be a report from any library or application we probably need to revert this commit.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: arm64: process: Fix context switching MTE store-only tag check SCTLR_EL1.TCSO0 is set when user opt-in for MTE store-only tag check mode. However, it is not part of SCTLR_USER_MASK which imply that on context switch we never clear SCTLR_EL1.TCSO0, so we are leaking that setting into another task. Fix that by including SCTLR_EL1_TCSO0_MASK into SCTLR_USER_MASK

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: do not leak an hci_conn when a second LE connect is rejected create_le_conn_complete() decides whether the failed connection is still pending by comparing it against hci_lookup_le_connect(), which returns the first LE connection in BT_CONNECT. That is the same connection only while at most one is pending. Two can be pending. Connections created on the passive scan path sit in BT_CONNECT with HCI_CONN_SCANNING set and are invisible to hci_lookup_le_connect() until hci_le_create_conn_sync() clears the flag when their command is issued, so the -EBUSY guard in hci_connect_le() does not prevent a second connection from being queued while the first is still on the scan path. Whenever two connections are in BT_CONNECT at once, the lookup may return one connection while create_le_conn_complete() is reporting the failure of the other; the early exit then drops the error and hci_conn_failed() never runs on the connection that failed. The controller also rejects a second HCI_OP_LE_CREATE_CONN issued while another connection creation is still outstanding, per Core Spec Vol 4, Part E. The spec calls for Command Disallowed there; the bcm43438 observed here answers with an LMP/LL error code instead, which bt_to_errno() maps to the -EPROTO (-71) in the log below. The leaked connection stays in BT_CONNECT forever, and because hci_connect_le() refuses to dial while hci_lookup_le_connect() finds anything, every subsequent attempt to reach any peer fails with -EBUSY and no command reaches the controller at all. Seen on a bcm43438 with two BLE peers polled on the same interval (state 5 is BT_CONNECT; both handles are UNSET ones, allocated from the ida above HCI_CONN_HANDLE_MAX): Bluetooth: hci1: Opcode 0x2013 failed: -71 # hcitool con < LE 14:9C:EF:03:68:81 handle 3840 state 5 lm CENTRAL < LE C4:D3:6A:8C:B5:38 handle 3841 state 5 lm CENTRAL A btmon capture across the next ten minutes of connect attempts contains no HCI_OP_LE_CREATE_CONN at all; outgoing LE connections do not recover until the adapter is reset. With this change the same scenario fails the rejected connection cleanly and further connects to both peers go through. Ask about the connection itself instead of about the device.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xsk: honor XDP_TX_METADATA in zero-copy path The zero-copy path reads TX metadata whenever the UMEM has metadata space, even if the descriptor does not set XDP_TX_METADATA. Pass descriptor options through the metadata helpers and ignore metadata unless the option is set. This does not fix the existing per-WQE metadata handling for mlx5 MPWQEs. Only the descriptor that starts a session passes through xsk_tx_metadata_request() and configures offload state shared by the batch. Metadata on descriptors joining an open session is therefore not validated and does not configure its requested offloads. In addition, a non-NULL metadata pointer from such a descriptor is treated as a timestamp completion request even when XDP_TXMD_FLAGS_TIMESTAMP is not set, so its metadata union can be overwritten with an unrequested timestamp. Fixing mixed metadata states within one MPWQE requires a separate change.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: octeontx2-af: fix NULL deref in NIX TM tree debugfs read path rvu_dbg_nix_tm_tree_display() dereferences pfvf->sq_ctx without checking whether the SQ context has been allocated. Reading /sys/kernel/debug/octeontx2/nix/tm_tree for a NIX LF whose transmit queues are not set up triggers a kernel oops. Guard the read path the same way rvu_dbg_nix_tm_tree_write() already does and return -EINVAL with a seq_file message when sq_ctx is NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: octeontx2-vf: fix workqueue and netdev race in probe/remove Initialize the VF workqueue before register_netdev() so ndo_set_rx_mode does not queue work on a NULL workqueue. Unregister the netdev before destroying the workqueue, and add proper probe error cleanup.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: mana: Cap MSI-X vectors to the device MSI-X table size mana_gd_query_max_resources() sizes gc->num_msix_usable from resp.max_msix and the CPU count, but never from the device MSI-X table. On a 1792 vCPU M-series VM that yields 1793 while the table has 1024 entries, and mana_gd_setup_remaining_irqs() then walks indices 1..1792, running off the end of the region mapped by msix_map_region(): BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ff8e347f8b99800c RIP: 0010:msix_prepare_msi_desc+0x7a/0x90 RAX: 0000000000004000 RBX: ff4330cb164ea780 RCX: ff8e347f8b998000 Call Trace: <TASK> __msi_domain_alloc_irqs+0x13a/0x440 msi_domain_alloc_irq_at+0x149/0x1b0 mana_gd_setup+0x351/0x890 mana_gd_probe+0x274/0x390 </TASK> RAX is index 1024 * PCI_MSIX_ENTRY_SIZE, one entry past the table. msi_insert_desc() does range check the index, but only against the MSI domain hwsize, which matches the table only for devices on an MSI parent domain.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/rds: use wq_has_sleeper() in rds_cong_map_updated() rds_cong_map_updated() runs after a peer's congestion map has been rewritten (by rds_tcp_cong_recv() and rds_ib_cong_recv(), or the clear-all in the loopback and IB send-completion paths). It bumps rds_cong_generation and then checks waitqueue_active() on map->m_waitq and on rds_poll_waitq to decide whether anyone needs waking. atomic_inc() carries no ordering and waitqueue_active() is a plain load, so nothing orders the map and generation stores before the wait queue reads. The waiters do the mirror image: rds_cong_wait() adds itself to m_waitq and then tests the port bit, and rds_poll() registers on rds_poll_waitq and then reads the generation. That is the store-buffering pattern described above waitqueue_active() in include/linux/wait.h - the updater can observe an empty wait queue while the waiter still observes the port as congested, and no wake-up is issued. rds_cong_wait() is an interruptible sleep with no timeout, so a sender blocked on a congested port stays blocked until the next congestion update from that peer arrives or a signal is delivered. A poll() waiter misses the map-updated notification the same way. Use wq_has_sleeper(), which is waitqueue_active() preceded by the required full barrier, as rds_tcp_state_change() already does for the same pattern.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: octeontx2-pf: fix NULL deref of af_xdp_zc_qidx on rep setup af_xdp_zc_qidx tracks receive queues using AF_XDP zero-copy and is allocated during PF/VF probe. Representors and other non-AF_XDP paths leave the pointer NULL, but several call sites used test_bit() on it unconditionally. Switching to devlink eswitch mode creates representors and runs otx2_init_hw_resources(), which reaches otx2_pool_aq_init() and oopses when dereferencing the NULL bitmap. Add NULL checks before every af_xdp_zc_qidx test_bit() use in the RSS, ethtool, XSK, and pool init paths.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: octeontx2-af: fix cn20k mailbox lifetime on repeated rvu_mbox_init() rvu_mbox_init() is called separately for AF-PF mailboxes during probe and for AF-VF mailboxes when SR-IOV is enabled. Each call used to allocate a new ng_rvu object, leaking the first allocation when the pointer was overwritten on the second call. Sharing one ng_rvu across both paths exposed several teardown bugs: the error path freed all cn20k mailbox DMA and kfree()d ng_rvu even when only the failing init type should be unwound, leaving live AF-PF mailbox memory in use after an AF-VF init failure. mutex_init() was also re-run on the AF-VF path while AF-PF mailbox handlers could still hold rvu->mbox_lock. Probe and SR-IOV failure paths did not release cn20k mailbox DMA either, since cleanup only happened in rvu_remove(). Allocate ng_rvu once with devm_kzalloc(), initialize mbox_lock in the same block, unwind only the mailbox memory for the failing init type, and free cn20k mailbox DMA from the probe and pci_enable_sriov() error paths.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: act_skbmod: fix length calculations and avoid invalid header warnings syzbot reported a warning in skb_network_header_len() triggered by tcf_skbmod_act(): !skb_transport_header_was_set(skb) WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 14949 at include/linux/skbuff.h:3243 skb_network_header_len include/linux/skbuff.h:3243 [inline] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 14949 at net/sched/act_skbmod.c:55 tcf_skbmod_act+0xfe8/0x1810 net/sched/act_skbmod.c:55 There are a few issues in tcf_skbmod_act(): 1. Calling skb_network_header_len() assumes skb->transport_header is set, which is not guaranteed when tcf_skbmod_act() runs at TC ingress. 2. Unconditionally calling skb_mac_header_len() at the beginning of tcf_skbmod_act() triggers a warning on L3 devices (e.g. TUN) where the MAC header is unset, evaluating to an underflowed garbage length. 3. On TC ingress, skb->data points to the network header. Adding the MAC header length to the IP header length causes skb_ensure_writable() to request more bytes than the actual IP packet length, dropping valid short packets (e.g. 28-byte UDP/IPv4 packets). Fix these by: - Using skb_network_offset(skb) + sizeof(struct iphdr/ipv6hdr) for SKBMOD_F_ECN so that the required length is correctly calculated on both ingress (offset == 0) and egress (offset == mac_len). - Setting max_edit_len to ETH_HLEN for Ethernet header modifications after validating ARPHRD_ETHER.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: fix a resource leak in copy_net_ns() error handling path Currently, preinit_net() does two things: (1) call ns_common_init() which might fail (2) initialize resources which does not fail However, preinit_net() is returning early when (1) fails, and copy_net_ns() is jumping to the dec_ucounts: label. As a result, resources allocated by net_alloc() are leaking. We need to call key_remove_domain() and net_passive_dec() in order to release resources allocated by net_alloc(). We cannot simply jump to the put_userns: label when preinit_net() failed, for (2) is not yet done. But we can reorder (1) and (2), for there is no dependency between (1) and (2). Therefore, this patch decouples (1) from preinit_net() and changes preinit_net() back to a void function, and calls ns_common_init() after preinit_net() succeeded. Then, we can jump to immediately after ns_common_free() of the put_userns: label.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tpm: st33zp24: Return zero on status read failure st33zp24_status() ignores the result of the transport read and returns data even when no byte was received. The I2C transport, for example, skips i2c_master_recv() when the register-select write is short or fails, leaving data uninitialized. The resulting stack value can be interpreted as TPM_STS flags and let status checks complete spuriously. The status callback cannot propagate a transport error. Return zero unless recv() reports exactly one byte. With no status bits set, callers retry or take their existing timeout or error path instead of acting on an invalid status value. This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by manual source review.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: dapm: Fix off-by-one check on the second enum channel The snd_soc_dapm_put_enum_double() rejects item[0] once it reaches e->items, but it lets item[1] be equal to it. Both go on to snd_soc_enum_item_to_val(), which indexes e->values with no bound of its own, so an enum with a value table reads one element past the end. The indexing arrived with the MUX consolidation, which relaxed the item[1] check in the same hunk. The value MUX handler it deleted used >= there, and the snd_soc_put_enum_double() in soc-ops.c still does. Only adav80x pairs a value table with two shifts, and its second channel looks accidental, but the control does report two values. Writing three into it reads off the end of adav80x_mux_values. The core catches that only under CONFIG_SND_CTL_INPUT_VALIDATION, which defaults off.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: samples/ftrace: Fix kthread_stop() on ERR_PTR in ftrace-direct-multi-modify ftrace_direct_multi_init() assigns kthread_run()'s return value to simple_tsk without an IS_ERR() check. When kthread_run() fails it returns ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM), but init still returns 0, so the module loads with simple_tsk holding an error pointer. On unload, ftrace_direct_multi_exit() then passes that ERR_PTR to kthread_stop(), leading to a null-pointer-dereference. Check the return value of kthread_run() with IS_ERR(); on failure, unregister the ftrace direct call and propagate the error code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/smc: release the internal TCP sock on IPPROTO_SMC socket creation failure IPPROTO_SMC sockets create an internal TCP sock ("clcsock") from the proto->init hook. When socket creation fails after proto->init has run - e.g. a cgroup BPF program attached to BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE denies the socket - sk_common_release() only invokes sk_prot->destroy if it is set, but neither smc_inet_prot nor smc_inet6_prot defines it, and smc_destruct() returns early unless sk_state is SMC_CLOSED. As a result, every failing socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_SMC) call leaks one tcp_sock, so an unprivileged task able to attach a deny-all BPF_CGROUP_INET_SOCK_CREATE program to its own cgroup can grow kernel memory unboundedly. Add a .destroy hook to both protos that releases the clcsock via smc_clcsock_release(). smc_sk_init() hashes the sock into the smc hashinfo before the clcsock is created, and smc_diag dumps walk that hash dereferencing smc->clcsock without taking clcsock_release_lock, while sk_common_release() calls .destroy before .unhash. Unhash the sock before releasing the clcsock, as __smc_release() does, so a concurrent dump cannot observe the release; the second unhash in sk_common_release() is a no-op.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe: Reject page faults from non-fault-mode scratch VMs Having scratch enabled does not make a VM capable of handling recoverable page faults. Allowing scratch VMs through the ASID lookup also admits dma-fence mode VMs. If such a VM faults on an already valid VMA, the handler reports success without fixing the fault, causing the GPU to retry indefinitely. Only allow fault-mode VMs through the ASID lookup. Fault-mode VMs using scratch remain supported, while faults from 3D VMs are rejected. (cherry picked from commit bfb24a06405b652d37831f3fb66b71d33a6605de)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nf_tables: skip double clone set expressions on element insert Both the dynset and newsetelem path clone the existing set expressions when setting set element expressions if no override expressions are provided. This results in a double clone, once to clone the template set expressions then another clone on the new element. Add a flag to annotate if userspace provides a override expression (ie. expression of the same type of the set but different configuration), otherwise borrow the existing expression from the set. Add conditionals to release expression iif they represent an override. Use this new override_exprs flag to dump the dynset expression override to userspace. This simplifies the existing logic and it also fixes a bug with the connlimit expression which results in a module refcount imbalance WARNING splat when resorting on the default set expressions.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: control: Don't add invalid kcontrols to LED layer The kcontrol LED state layer tries to track the all associated kcontrol elements with naive assumptions that they are readable. But one can create a write-only element that has no get callback (even a user element can do it), and this may lead to a NULL dereference at the call chain of snd_ctl_led_notify(), as found by syzkaller. For avoiding the Oops, add a sanity check of the kcontrol's info and get callbacks, and just skip the invalid kcontrols before assigning the kctl to the LED layer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: bound qdisc_pkt_len to prevent qdisc soft lockup qdisc_get_stab() accepts a user-supplied size table, and __qdisc_calculate_pkt_len() amplifies qdisc_pkt_len() through the overhead, the size-table data (u16), and size_log (up to STAB_SIZE_LOG_MAX). A crafted stab can therefore set qdisc_pkt_len() to ~1 GiB for an ordinary skb. Per-flow deficit schedulers such as DRR and ETS replenish one quantum per loop iteration; with a tiny quantum (1) they spin billions of times under the qdisc lock, producing a soft lockup / RCU stall as illustrated by vega@nebusec.ai. Cap the final qdisc_pkt_len() to QDISC_PKT_LEN_MAX so the size-table amplification cannot drive deficit schedulers into an unbounded loop. A legitimate size table (e.g. qfq's overhead 999999999, which is handled by dropping) is still accepted. Introduce cap QDISC_PKT_LEN_MAX (1 << 20) = 1 MiB which is well above any legitimate single-skb wire length: the largest current skb->len is GSO_MAX_SIZE (524280), and an ATM-style size table (53/48 cell tax) amplifies that to ~578 KB, both comfortably below 1 MiB. At the same time, 1 MiB bounds the deficit refill loop to ~1M iterations per packet with quantum=1, which completes in a few milliseconds well under the demonstrated softlockup threshold (~10^9 iterations). Conditions to recreate the bug: - CONFIG_NET_SCHED=y, CONFIG_NET_SCH_DRR=y (or CONFIG_NET_SCH_ETS=y). - Attach a DRR (or ETS) root qdisc with a crafted TCA_STAB that amplifies qdisc_pkt_len to ~1 GiB (e.g. size_log=15, data=[32768]). - Add a class with a tiny quantum of 1 and send one small packet; the deficit loop spins billions of times under the qdisc lock and trips the softlockup detector (panic with kernel.softlockup_panic=1). - Reachable as root or from an unprivileged user in a fresh user+net namespace (unshare -Urn) with namespace-local CAP_NET_ADMIN.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: fec: only stop PTP if it was initialized fec_ptp_init() is only called when fep->bufdesc_ex is available. However, fec_probe() unconditionally calls fec_ptp_stop() on the failed_init path, and fec_drv_remove() unconditionally calls fec_ptp_stop() during device removal. Check fep->bufdesc_ex before calling fec_ptp_stop() in both paths to avoid stopping PTP when it was not initialized.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tcp: fix corruption of urgent data on multi-segment retransmit On the normal xmit path, while in urgent mode we refuse to build a multi-segment TSO packet, so every segment gets its own urg_ptr: /* tcp_write_xmit() */ limit = mss_now; if (tso_segs > 1 && !tcp_urg_mode(tp)) limit = tcp_mss_split_point(...); The retransmit path has no such guard. __tcp_retransmit_skb() builds a segs > 1 skb and hands it to the GSO layer, which only advances th->seq per segment and copies urg_ptr verbatim: /* __tcp_retransmit_skb() */ len = cur_mss * segs; /* segs > 1, no urg_mode check */ ... /* tcp_gso_segment(): bumps seq only, urg_ptr is copied */ urg_ptr is an offset from the segment's own seq, so a copied value points at a different place on each segment. The receiver rebuilds the absolute urgent seq as seg.seq + urg_ptr, so it walks a moving urgent point instead of the one OOB byte: seg1 seq 1 urg_ptr 5001 -> urgent @ 5001 (ok) seg2 seq 1001 urg_ptr 5001 -> urgent @ 6001 (wrong, +MSS) seg3 seq 2001 urg_ptr 5001 -> urgent @ 7001 (wrong, +2*MSS) The real OOB byte is never pointed at, so the receiver stops splicing it out and delivers it as normal in-band data, corrupting the stream. Guard the retransmit length like the xmit path: keep segs = 1 while in urgent mode.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: fq: clamp quantum and initial_quantum in change path The fq change path accepts TCA_FQ_QUANTUM in [1, INT_MAX] and TCA_FQ_INITIAL_QUANTUM up to INT_MAX, while fq_init() already clamps to [1, 1<<20]. A user can override the init clamp via tc qdisc change, restoring the small-quantum deficit spin that the init clamp prevents. Narrow iq_range.max to 1<<20 so TCA_FQ_INITIAL_QUANTUM is rejected at parse time. Clamp TCA_FQ_QUANTUM to [256, 1<<20] in fq_change() and fq_init() quantum to [256, 1<<20] for tiny-MTU devices. Conditions to recreate the bug: CONFIG_NET_SCH_FQ=y. Requires CAP_NET_ADMIN (namespace-local via unshare -Urn suffices). tc qdisc add dev dummy0 root fq tc qdisc change dev dummy0 root fq quantum 1 stab data 32768 size_log 15 cell_log 0

Cleartext exposure of origin credentials in AsyncHttpClient (AHC) 2.0.0-2.16.0 and 3.0.0-3.0.11 occurs when a Java application reaches an HTTPS origin through an HTTP CONNECT proxy while using preemptive origin authentication: the library attaches the origin's Authorization header - Basic or Digest credentials, plus per-connection NTLM/Kerberos/SPNEGO tokens - to the plaintext CONNECT request before any TLS tunnel exists, so the proxy and any observer on the client-to-proxy hop can read credentials meant only for the origin. The vulnerability is rated CVSS 5.9 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) with high confidentiality impact but a high attack-complexity qualifier, because exploitation requires the specific non-default combination of a CONNECT proxy, preemptive origin authentication, and an adversary positioned on that network segment; authentication requirements are not confirmed from the supplied vector beyond PR:N, and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Vendor-released patches are 2.16.1 and 3.0.12, and because 3.0.12 is itself affected by a separate Digest-to-Basic downgrade flaw (GHSA-rqf5-2wxv-rjf4), 3.0.13 is the recommended target on the 3.x line.

Credential disclosure in AsyncHttpClient (Java) allows a client configured with a client-wide Realm via config.setRealm(...) and with redirect following enabled to leak Basic, Digest, Negotiate, or NTLM credentials to an attacker-controlled origin. When a cross-origin or scheme-downgrade redirect clears the per-exchange realm, the authentication interceptor in Interceptors.java falls back to config.getRealm() and re-attaches the client-wide credentials; if the attacker's target then answers HTTP 401, the client sends those credentials or tokens to that foreign origin. Affected releases are 2.14.5 through 2.16.0 and 3.0.9 through 3.0.11, fixed in 2.16.1 and 3.0.12; there is no confirmed active exploitation (not in CISA KEV) and no public exploit code identified at time of analysis, and the flaw is conditional on the specific client-wide Realm configuration, redirect following, attacker-influenced redirect, and a 401 response (AC:H per the assessed vector).

MariaDB Connector/J versions prior to 2.7.14, 3.3.5, 3.4.3, and 3.5.9 can be tricked into transmitting a locally selected file to a rogue or man-in-the-middle database server even when the allowLocalInfile option is explicitly set to false, because the connector processes a server-initiated LOCAL INFILE packet (0xfb) without honoring that setting. The exposure is narrow: the attacker can only receive the exact file the application already chose to load via a LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE COM_QUERY, cannot redirect the request to an arbitrary path, and gains nothing unless the application organically loads sensitive data over an untrusted connection - so this is a low-severity (CVSS 3.7), highly conditional information-disclosure issue rather than a widespread threat. The vulnerability is unauthenticated at the network layer per the vector (PR:N) but requires high attack complexity (AC:H) and control of the server or the connection path; no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis, and the flaw is fixed in the four versions listed above.

Information disclosure in Steeltoe's Management Endpoint actuator (Steeltoe.Management.Endpoint) prior to 4.3.0 allows an unauthenticated remote attacker who can reach the exposed /actuator/httpexchanges endpoint to harvest secrets that were previously captured in recorded request query strings - OAuth and password-reset tokens, API keys, and signed-URL signatures - because MaskedUri only redacts URI user-info and never inspects the query string. The same recorded URIs are written by the Steeltoe.Management.Endpoint.Actuators.HttpExchanges DEBUG logger, giving anyone with log access a second disclosure channel. Exploitation is config-gated (IncludeQueryString must be enabled, the endpoint must be explicitly exposed, and prior traffic must actually have carried query-string secrets), scoring CVSS 5.9 (AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/C:H/I:N/A:N); no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is remediated in Steeltoe 4.3.0.

Mattermost Desktop App versions up to and including 6.2.2.0 fail to validate the URL scheme when deciding whether a link points to an internal server resource, so a network-positioned attacker who can intercept and downgrade the connection can make the client open a plugin popout window over an insecure (non-TLS) connection. Exploitation is narrow: it requires a man-in-the-middle position capable of forcing the scheme downgrade, an authenticated user of the affected client (PR:L per the CVSS vector), and that user clicking a crafted internal link (UI:R), which is why the vendor and independent scoring both land in the low range (vendor 2.6; independently assessed AV:A/AC:H). There is no indication of active exploitation and no public exploit code identified at time of analysis; the realistic impact is limited to integrity of the content rendered in the popout window, with no confidentiality or availability effect.

Dell SmartFabric Manager installations running versions earlier than 2.2.1 can disclose limited information to a low-privileged attacker who already holds a valid account and can either reach the management interface over the network or induce a legitimate user to perform an action. The flaw is rated CVSS 3.1 3.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N), so it requires authentication plus user interaction and results only in low confidentiality impact with no integrity or availability effect - not an unauthenticated, default-configuration remote compromise. There is no evidence of active exploitation (the issue is not in CISA KEV), no public proof-of-concept identified at time of analysis, and no independent EPSS signal was supplied; this is a genuinely low-priority issue by every available signal.

Unauthenticated server-side request forgery in Nuxt OG Image (the npm package nuxt-og-image) 6.0.2 through 6.6.x allows any remote attacker who can reach a deployed Nuxt site to make the server issue arbitrary outbound GET requests by supplying a crafted fonts[].path value to the public /_og/d/** image-generation route. Exploitation works against the module's documented defaults (security.strict = false, security.secret = "", restrictRuntimeImagesToOrigin = false), and the response is blind: the outer HTTP status is 500 when the internal target answers with 2xx and 200 when it fails, giving a usable oracle to enumerate live loopback, RFC1918, link-local and cloud-metadata services, while slow targets can also tie up OG image render workers for the configured fetch/render timeouts. No public exploit identified at time of analysis (no KEV listing); vendor-released patch: 6.7.0.

Improper TLS certificate validation in Dell OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA) managed-node builds prior to 11.1.0.3 allows an unauthenticated attacker who already occupies an adjacent-network position (same LAN or management VLAN) to man-in-the-middle OMSA traffic and accept a forged or invalid server certificate, resulting in disclosure and tampering of management data. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:A/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N, score 6.8) confirms adjacent access and high attack complexity are required but no credentials or user interaction are needed once a MITM foothold exists; the issue is limited to the local management plane and cannot be triggered from the public internet. No public exploit code has been identified and the flaw is not in CISA KEV, so this is a moderate-real-risk hardening issue rather than an emergency, with the primary fix being the vendor release 11.1.0.3.

Unauthenticated attackers can retrieve hidden catalog entities from Vendure's publicly accessible Shop API by setting the filterOperator argument to OR, which causes the mandatory visibility guard to be OR-combined with the caller's own filters instead of AND-combined. The flaw affects the npm package @vendure/core in all versions from 1.0.0 up to (but not including) 3.6.5 and exposes disabled products and private collections or facets through the products, collections, and facets list queries. CVSS 3.1 is 5.3 (Medium, AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N), consistent with read-only information disclosure; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, although the upstream fix commit and its regression tests are publicly visible.

Chunked-transfer request smuggling in Sanic allows a remote unauthenticated attacker to plant a hidden second HTTP request inside the trailer-part of a chunked request, which Sanic then parses and routes as a genuine backend request on the same keep-alive connection. Affected versions are all releases before 24.12.1 and the 25.12.0 release (fixed in 24.12.1 and 25.12.1); the defect triggers on default configuration, with CVSS 3.1 scoring 6.5 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:L) reflecting a request-boundary integrity failure rather than direct data compromise. A verified proof-of-concept is included in the upstream advisory showing a single TCP payload yielding two responses (a 405 for the outer POST and a 200 for a smuggled GET), meaning publicly available exploit code exists; the practical risk is highest when Sanic sits behind a reverse proxy, CDN, or load balancer that disagrees with Sanic on request boundaries.

Untrusted JavaScript running inside a vm2 sandbox before version 3.11.2 can reach the host-side internal state object via globalThis['VM2_INTERNAL_STATE_DO_NOT_USE_OR_PROGRAM_WILL_FAIL'], disclosing sandbox internals that were supposed to be invisible to guest code in the npm package vm2. The issue is a re-bypass of the earlier advisory GHSA-wp5r-2gw5-m7q7, and a short working proof-of-concept is published in the vendor advisory GHSA-2cm2-m3w5-gp2f, so publicly available exploit code exists; no CISA KEV listing appears in the supplied intelligence and no EPSS value was provided. The CVSS 4.0 base score is 6.9 with a confidentiality-only impact (VC:L, VI:N, VA:N, SC:N, PR:N, UI:N), consistent with the independent assessment that this is a genuine but low-severity information disclosure with no demonstrated code execution, integrity, or availability effect; the unauthenticated PR:N rating reflects the vector, while in practice the attacker must already be able to execute code inside the vm2 trust boundary (an application that embeds vm2 and runs attacker-controlled scripts).

Absolute host filesystem path disclosure in vm2 3.11.0 through 3.11.6 allows attacker-supplied JavaScript running inside a vm2 sandbox to force the host-realm source transformer to throw a SyntaxError (for example via eval with malformed source) and then read the resulting error's .stack property, which the bridge forwards to the host-realm formatter. Default new VM() and new NodeVM() configurations are affected with no special options, and the leak persists even when string eval is disabled, because the host-side transformer throws before eval is handled. Only information disclosure results - absolute paths from vm2, Node.js internals, and the embedding application's source tree plus host function names - with no write, no code execution, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis; the CVSS 4.0 score of 6.9 reflects the scope change and low confidentiality impact rather than a high-severity outcome.

Information disclosure in vm2 through version 3.11.7 allows sandboxed Node.js code to read the host process's call stack metadata: NodeVM exposes the host util module as an unfiltered shallow copy and also exposes the deprecated sys alias, and on Node.js 22.9 or later this hands sandbox code util.getCallSites(), which returns absolute file paths, function names, and line numbers for vm2 bridge internals and the embedding application's entrypoint. Remote attackers are unauthenticated (CVSS PR:N), but exploitation requires the host application to actually execute attacker-controlled JavaScript inside NodeVM and to be running Node.js >= 22.9; the leak is read-only and grants no code execution or write access. Vendor-released patch: vm2 3.11.8. No confirmed active exploitation (no CISA KEV listing) and no public exploit code identified at time of analysis.

The audit-log add-on in AshAuthentication stores pseudonymised client IP addresses using an unkeyed SHA-256 over a salt concatenated with the IP, truncated to 16 hex characters, so anyone who can already read the audit store can reverse those values back to the original addresses. Exploitation requires two explicit prerequisites: ip_privacy_mode must be set to :hash (the DSL default is :none, so this is an opt-in), and the attacker must already hold read access to the audit log via a database dump, backup, replica, or reader account. Reversal is trivial when the salt is left at the library's published fallback constant 'default-salt-change-in-production', which is used silently with no warning; even a properly configured salt only reduces the problem to 'that salt must leak', after which exhaustive enumeration over the 2^32 IPv4 space is cheap. Per the authoritative assessment this is a low-priority information-disclosure issue (assessed CVSS 3.1 1.8, CWE-760) affecting only client IP addresses with no integrity or availability impact; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and vendor-released patches exist in 4.15.0 and 5.0.0-rc.14.

The audit_log add-on in the Elixir library AshAuthentication (ash_authentication) writes the full actor record into each audit entry's extra_data field, so the user's hashed_password digest is stored alongside the audit trail in versions from 4.12.0 up to but not including 4.15.0, and from 5.0.0-rc.0 up to but not including 5.0.0-rc.2. There is no network-facing or attacker-triggered disclosure path: entries accumulate from ordinary authenticated activity controlled by benign code, and an attacker's own requests only deposit the attacker's own digest, so exploitation requires that the attacker already hold independent read access to the audit store (database credentials, an audit role, a backup, or a log shipper). The result is exposure of password hashes that support offline cracking of every active account whose actions were audited; the vector is local, high complexity, and privileged (per the assessment PR:H), making this a log-hygiene/defense-in-depth issue rather than an actively exploited one - no public exploit code or CISA KEV entry has been identified at time of analysis, and vendor patches are available.

Server-side request forgery in the MISP sachertortephp library (a fork of CakePHP) lets any code that calls Xml::build() with the readFile option set to false still trigger an outbound HTTPS fetch whenever the supplied input string starts with 'https://', because a missing pair of parentheses in the gating condition makes the https:// branch independent of the readFile flag. The application then parses the remote response as XML and may hand it back to the caller, exposing internal-only services or attacker-chosen external endpoints to data disclosure, with the bundled HttpSocket configuration following up to 10 redirects to widen reachable targets. Exploitation is authenticated in practice (CVSS:4.0 PR:L / assessed CVSS:3.1 PR:L) and requires a reachable host-application code path that passes attacker-influenceable data to Xml::build(); no public exploit code has been identified at time of analysis and the issue is not confirmed actively exploited (CISA KEV). The http:// branch is correctly gated and is not exploitable - only the https:// scheme bypasses the intended suppression of remote reads.

Password cracking in admin3 3.0.0 and earlier allows anyone who obtains the application's credential database to recover user plaintext passwords offline, because stored credentials use single-round MD5 salted only with the username and no key-derivation function. The flaw does not grant database access by itself - it requires a prior compromise (database breach, SQL injection, exposed backup, or insider/privileged access, reflected by the CVSS PR:H prerequisite), but once that precondition is met, cracking is trivial on commodity hardware; publicly available exploit code exists. With a vendor score of 4.9 (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N) and no confirmed active exploitation, this is a genuine but conditional, low-to-moderate risk that amplifies the impact of an upstream data exposure rather than creating one.

Disabling or locking a user account in admin3 through 3.0.0 does not invalidate that user's existing bearer tokens, so a previously authenticated user retains full access with their original permissions after the account is disabled. The root cause is twofold: the AuthInterceptor never re-checks the user's locked status on subsequent requests, and LocalSessionManager resets session expiry on every request, so a pre-existing token never lapses through inactivity. Publicly available exploit code exists (a proof-of-concept account-lockout-bypass script), and exploitation requires that the attacker already held a valid token issued while their account was enabled (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:N, CVSS 5.4) - a rogue-insider or post-disable persistence scenario rather than unauthenticated compromise. Confirmed actively exploited (CISA KEV) status is not indicated by the available data, and there is no privilege escalation beyond the disabled account's original permission set.
