Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2026-46242
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
eventpoll: fix ep_remove struct eventpoll / struct file UAF
ep_remove() (via ep_remove_file()) cleared file-f_ep under
file-f_lock but then kept using @file inside the critical section
(is_file_epoll(), hlist_del_rcu() through the head, spin_unlock).
A concurrent __fput() taking the eventpoll_release() fastpath in
that window observed the transient NULL, skipped
eventpoll_release_file() and ran to f_op-release / file_free().
For the epoll-watches-epoll case, f_op-release is
ep_eventpoll_release() - ep_clear_and_put() - ep_free(), which
kfree()s the watched struct eventpoll. Its embedded -refs
hlist_head is exactly where epi-fllink.pprev points, so the
subsequent hlist_del_rcu()'s "*pprev = next" scribbles into freed
kmalloc-192 memory.
In addition, struct file is SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU, so the slot
backing @file could be recycled by alloc_empty_file() --
reinitializing f_lock and f_ep -- while ep_remove() is still
nominally inside that lock. The upshot is an attacker-controllable
kmem_cache_free() against the wrong slab cache.
Pin @file via epi_fget() at the top of ep_remove() and gate the
critical section on the pin succeeding. With the pin held @file
cannot reach refcount zero, which holds __fput() off and
transitively keeps the watched struct eventpoll alive across the
hlist_del_rcu() and the f_lock use, closing both UAFs.
If the pin fails @file has already reached refcount zero and its
__fput() is in flight. Because we bailed before clearing f_ep,
that path takes the eventpoll_release() slow path into
eventpoll_release_file() and blocks on ep-mtx until the waiter
side's ep_clear_and_put() drops it. The bailed epi's share of
ep-refcount stays intact, so the trailing ep_refcount_dec_and_test()
in ep_clear_and_put() cannot free the eventpoll out from under
eventpoll_release_file(); the orphaned epi is then cleaned up
there.
A successful pin also proves we are not racing
eventpoll_release_file() on this epi, so drop the now-redundant
re-check of epi-dying under f_lock. The cheap lockless
READ_ONCE(epi-dying) fast-path bailout stays.

CVEID: CVE-2026-53359
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86: Fix shadow paging use-after-free due to unexpected role
Commit 0cb2af2ea66ad ("KVM: x86: Fix shadow paging use-after-free due
to unexpected GFN") fixed a shadow paging mismatch between stored and
computed GFNs; the bug could be triggered by changing a PDE mapping from
outside the guest, and then deleting a memslot. The rmap_remove()
call would miss entries created after the PDE change because the GFN
of the leaf SPTE does not match the GFN of the struct kvm_mmu_page.
A similar hole however remains if the modified PDE points to a non-leaf
page. In this case the gfn can be made to match, but the role does not
match: the original large 2MB page creates a kvm_mmu_page with direct=1,
while the new 4KB needs a kvm_mmu_page with direct=0. However,
kvm_mmu_get_child_sp() does not compare the role, and therefore reuses
the page.
The next step is installing a leaf (4KB) SPTE on the new path which
records an rmap entry under the gfn resolved by the walk. But when
that child is zapped its parent kvm_mmu_page has direct=1 and
kvm_mmu_page_get_gfn() computes the gfn for the 4KB page as
sp-gfn + index instead of using sp-shadowed_translation[] (or sp-gfns[]
in older kernels). It therefore fails to remove the recorded entry.
When the memslot is dropped the shadow page is freed but the rmap
entry survives, as in the scenario that was already fixed. Code that
later walks that gfn (dirty logging, MMU notifier invalidation, and
so on) dereferences an sptep that lies in the freed page, causing the
use-after-free.

CVEID: CVE-2026-58471
DESCRIPTION: GNU Wget through 1.25.0, fixed in commit c2640fe, contains a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in the convert_fname() function within src/url.c that allows remote attackers to trigger memory corruption through a server-supplied filename requiring character set conversion. When the output buffer is too small during iconv E2BIG reallocation, the reallocation logic miscalculates the remaining space, leading to a heap buffer overflow that can be exploited via a maliciously crafted server response.

DESCRIPTION: GNU Wget through 1.25.0, fixed in commit dd692d9, contains a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in the html_quote_string() function in src/convert.c that allows a remote attacker to trigger memory corruption by supplying a crafted HTML attribute with a large number of characters requiring entity encoding. A server-supplied HTML attribute causes a signed integer counter to overflow during output size accumulation, resulting in an undersized heap allocation and subsequent heap buffer overflow during the copy phase.

CVEID: CVE-2026-57231
DESCRIPTION: Podman is a tool for managing OCI containers and pods. From 1.8.1 until 5.8.4, a container image that contains a environment variable with just a key and no value can trick podman into passing that variable from the host into the container. This is made worse by the fact that using an asterisk (*) will cause podman to pass all host variables into the container. So essentially a malicious image can exfiltrate all podman environment variables that are set in the session from where the container is launched. This vulnerability is fixed in 5.8.4 and 6.0.0.

CVEID: CVE-2025-68211
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksm: use range-walk function to jump over holes in scan_get_next_rmap_item
Currently, scan_get_next_rmap_item() walks every page address in a VMA to
locate mergeable pages. This becomes highly inefficient when scanning
large virtual memory areas that contain mostly unmapped regions, causing
ksmd to use large amount of cpu without deduplicating much pages.
This patch replaces the per-address lookup with a range walk using
walk_page_range(). The range walker allows KSM to skip over entire
unmapped holes in a VMA, avoiding unnecessary lookups. This problem was
previously discussed in [1].
Consider the following test program which creates a 32 TiB mapping in the
virtual address space but only populates a single page:
#include unistd.h
#include stdio.h
#include sys/mman.h
/* 32 TiB */
const size_t size = 32ul * 1024 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024;
int main() {
char *area = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_NORESERVE | MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANON, -1, 0);
if (area == MAP_FAILED) {
perror("mmap() failed\n");
return -1;
}
/* Populate a single page such that we get an anon_vma. */
*area = 0;
/* Enable KSM. */
madvise(area, size, MADV_MERGEABLE);
pause();
return 0;
}
$ ./ksm-sparse &
$ echo 1 /sys/kernel/mm/ksm/run
Without this patch ksmd uses 100% of the cpu for a long time (more then 1
hour in my test machine) scanning all the 32 TiB virtual address space
that contain only one mapped page. This makes ksmd essentially deadlocked
not able to deduplicate anything of value. With this patch ksmd walks
only the one mapped page and skips the rest of the 32 TiB virtual address
space, making the scan fast using little cpu.

CVEID: CVE-2026-43114
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_set_pipapo_avx2: don't return non-matching entry on expiry
New test case fails unexpectedly when avx2 matching functions are used.
The test first loads a ranomly generated pipapo set
with 'ipv4 . port' key, i.e. nft -f foo.
This works. Then, it reloads the set after a flush:
(echo flush set t s; cat foo) | nft -f -
This is expected to work, because its the same set after all and it was
already loaded once.
But with avx2, this fails: nft reports a clashing element.
The reported clash is of following form:
We successfully re-inserted
a . b
c . d
Then we try to insert a . d
avx2 finds the already existing a . d, which (due to 'flush set') is marked
as invalid in the new generation. It skips the element and moves to next.
Due to incorrect masking, the skip-step finds the next matching
element *only considering the first field*,
i.e. we return the already reinserted "a . b", even though the
last field is different and the entry should not have been matched.
No such error is reported for the generic c implementation (no avx2) or when
the last field has to use the 'nft_pipapo_avx2_lookup_slow' fallback.
Bisection points to
7711f4bb4b36 ("netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: fix range overlap detection")
but that fix merely uncovers this bug.
Before this commit, the wrong element is returned, but erronously
reported as a full, identical duplicate.
The root-cause is too early return in the avx2 match functions.
When we process the last field, we should continue to process data
until the entire input size has been consumed to make sure no stale
bits remain in the map.

CVEID: CVE-2026-52924
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: purge outqueue on stale COOKIE-ECHO handling
sctp_stream_update() is only invoked when the association is moved into
COOKIE_WAIT during association setup/reconfiguration. In this path, the
outbound stream scheduler state (stream-out_curr) is expected to be
clean, since no user data should have been transmitted yet unless the
state machine has already partially progressed.
However, a corner case exists in sctp_sf_do_5_2_6_stale(): when a
Stale Cookie ERROR is received, the association is rolled back from
COOKIE_ECHOED to COOKIE_WAIT. In this scenario, user data may already
have been queued and even bundled with the COOKIE-ECHO chunk.
During the rollback, sctp_stream_update() frees the old stream table
and installs a new one, but it does not invalidate stream-out_curr.
As a result, out_curr may still point to a freed sctp_stream_out
entry from the previous stream state.
Later, SCTP scheduler dequeue paths (FCFS, RR, PRIO, etc.) rely on
stream-out_curr-ext, which can lead to use-after-free once the old
stream state has been released via sctp_stream_free().
This results in crashes such as (reported by Yuqi):
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in sctp_sched_fcfs_dequeue+0x13a/0x140

Fix this by fully purging the association outqueue when handling the
Stale Cookie case. This ensures all pending transmit and retransmit
state is dropped, and any scheduler cached pointers are invalidated,
making it safe to rebuild stream state during COOKIE_WAIT restart.
Updating only stream-out_curr would be insufficient, since queued
and retransmittable data would still reference the old stream state and
trigger later use-after-free in dequeue paths.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
zram: fix use-after-free in zram_bvec_write_partial()
zram_read_page() picks the sync or async backing device read path based on
whether the parent bio is NULL. zram_bvec_write_partial() passes its
parent bio down, so for ZRAM_WB slots the read is dispatched
asynchronously and zram_read_page() returns 0 while the bio is still in
flight. The caller then runs memcpy_from_bvec(), zram_write_page() and
__free_page() on the buffer, leaving the async read to write into a freed
page.
zram_bvec_read_partial() was switched to NULL in commit 4e3c87b9421d
("zram: fix synchronous reads") for the same reason; the write_partial
counterpart was missed.

of the array pointer. These run from netlink_recvmsg() without the nfnl
mutex and without an RCU read-side critical section.
A concurrent ip_set_create() can grow the array: it publishes the new
array, calls synchronize_net() and then kvfree()s the old one. Since the
dump paths read the array outside any RCU reader, synchronize_net() does
not wait for them and the old array can be freed while they still index
into it, causing a use-after-free.
The dumped set itself stays pinned via set-ref_netlink, so only the
array load needs protecting. Take rcu_read_lock() around it, matching
ip_set_get_byname() and __ip_set_put_byindex().

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: stub: Reject I2C block transfers with invalid length
The I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA case in stub_xfer() uses data-block[0]
as the transfer length. The existing check only clamps it to avoid
overrunning the chip-words[256] register array, but does not validate
it against I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX (32), which is the limit of the union
i2c_smbus_data.block buffer (34 bytes total). The driver is a
development/test tool (CONFIG_I2C_STUB=m, not built by default)
that must be loaded with a chip_addr= parameter.
A local user with access to /dev/i2c-* can issue an I2C_SMBUS ioctl
with I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA and data-block[0] 32, causing
stub_xfer() to read or write past the end of the union
i2c_smbus_data.block buffer:

The bug exists because i2c-stub implements .smbus_xfer directly,
bypassing the I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX validation in
i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated(). The I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_DATA case in the same
function correctly validates against I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX, but the
I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA case does not.
Fix by rejecting transfers with data-block[0] == 0 or
data-block[0] I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_MAX with -EINVAL, consistent with
both the I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_DATA case in the same function and the
I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA validation in i2c_smbus_xfer_emulated().

CVEID: CVE-2026-64276
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: synaptics-rmi4 - bound the F30 keymap to the GPIO/LED count
rmi_f30_map_gpios() allocates gpioled_key_map with
min(gpioled_count, TRACKSTICK_RANGE_END) == at most 6 entries, but
rmi_f30_attention() iterates the full f30-gpioled_count (device query
register, range 0..31) and dereferences gpioled_key_map[i], and
input-keycodemax is set to the full gpioled_count while input-keycode
points at the 6-entry allocation.
A device that reports gpioled_count 6 with GPIO support enabled
therefore causes an out-of-bounds read on the attention interrupt and
out-of-bounds read/write through the EVIOCGKEYCODE/EVIOCSKEYCODE ioctls,
which bound the index only against keycodemax. This is the same defect
as the F3A handler, which was copied from F30.
Size the keymap for the full gpioled_count; the mapping loop still
assigns only the first min(gpioled_count, TRACKSTICK_RANGE_END) entries.

CVEID: CVE-2026-64277
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: synaptics-rmi4 - bound the F3A keymap to the GPIO count
rmi_f3a_initialize() takes the GPIO count from the device query register
(f3a-gpio_count = buf & RMI_F3A_GPIO_COUNT, range 0..127).
rmi_f3a_map_gpios() then allocates gpio_key_map with
min(gpio_count, TRACKSTICK_RANGE_END) == at most 6 entries, but
rmi_f3a_attention() iterates the full gpio_count and dereferences
gpio_key_map[i], and input-keycodemax is set to the full gpio_count
while input-keycode points at the 6-entry allocation.
A device that reports gpio_count 6 therefore causes an out-of-bounds
read of gpio_key_map[] on every attention interrupt, and out-of-bounds
accesses through the input core's default keymap ioctls: EVIOCGKEYCODE
reads past the buffer (leaking adjacent slab memory to user space) and
EVIOCSKEYCODE writes a caller-controlled value past it, for any process
able to open the evdev node, since input_default_getkeycode() and
input_default_setkeycode() only bound the index against keycodemax.
Size the keymap for the full gpio_count. The mapping loop is unchanged:
it still assigns only the first min(gpio_count, TRACKSTICK_RANGE_END)
entries; the remaining slots stay KEY_RESERVED (devm_kcalloc zero-fills)
and are skipped when reporting.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ipv6: clear suppressed fib6 rule result
fib6_rule_suppress() drops a suppressed route with ip6_rt_put_flags(),
but leaves res-rt6 pointing at the released rt6_info.
If no later rule supplies a replacement, fib6_rule_lookup() still sees
res.rt6 and returns that stale dst to its caller. A suppressing rule can
therefore leak a released route back to rt6_lookup(), and the next put
hits rcuref_put_slowpath() from dst_release().
Clear res-rt6 when suppressing the route so suppressed lookups fall
through to the null dst instead of reusing the released one.

DESCRIPTION: libxml2 is vulnerable to multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the xmlcatalog utility when running in --shell mode. The usershell() function processes user input using fixed-size stack buffers without proper bounds checking.
By supplying an overly long input line, an attacker can overflow internal buffers (command, arg, and argv) during input parsing. This results in memory corruption within the stack frame.
Successful exploitation may cause a crash or potentially allow arbitrary code execution in the context of the xmlcatalog process.
This issue has been fixed in the commit c2e233fc.

CVEID: CVE-2026-43233
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack_h323: fix OOB read in decode_choice()
In decode_choice(), the boundary check before get_len() uses the
variable `len`, which is still 0 from its initialization at the top of
the function:
unsigned int type, ext, len = 0;
...
if (ext || (son-attr & OPEN)) {
BYTE_ALIGN(bs);
if (nf_h323_error_boundary(bs, len, 0)) /* len is 0 here */
return H323_ERROR_BOUND;
len = get_len(bs); /* OOB read */
When the bitstream is exactly consumed (bs-cur == bs-end), the check
nf_h323_error_boundary(bs, 0, 0) evaluates to (bs-cur + 0 bs-end),
which is false. The subsequent get_len() call then dereferences
*bs-cur++, reading 1 byte past the end of the buffer. If that byte
has bit 7 set, get_len() reads a second byte as well.
This can be triggered remotely by sending a crafted Q.931 SETUP message
with a User-User Information Element containing exactly 2 bytes of
PER-encoded data ({0x08, 0x00}) to port 1720 through a firewall with
the nf_conntrack_h323 helper active. The decoder fully consumes the
PER buffer before reaching this code path, resulting in a 1-2 byte
heap-buffer-overflow read confirmed by AddressSanitizer.
Fix this by checking for 2 bytes (the maximum that get_len() may read)
instead of the uninitialized `len`. This matches the pattern used at
every other get_len() call site in the same file, where the caller
checks for 2 bytes of available data before calling get_len().

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Refactor amdgpu_gem_va_ioctl for Handling Last Fence Update and Timeline Management v4
This commit simplifies the amdgpu_gem_va_ioctl function, key updates
include:
- Moved the logic for managing the last update fence directly into
amdgpu_gem_va_update_vm.
- Introduced checks for the timeline point to enable conditional
replacement or addition of fences.
v2: Addressed review comments from Christian.
v3: Updated comments (Christian).
v4: The previous version selected the fence too early and did not manage its
reference correctly, which could lead to stale or freed fences being used.
This resulted in refcount underflows and could crash when updating GPU
timelines.
The fence is now chosen only after the VA mapping work is completed, and its
reference is taken safely. After exporting it to the VM timeline syncobj, the
driver always drops its local fence reference, ensuring balanced refcounting
and avoiding use-after-free on dma_fence.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: Fix watch_id bounds checking in debug address watch v2
The address watch clear code receives watch_id as an unsigned value
(u32), but some helper functions were using a signed int and checked
bits by shifting with watch_id.
If a very large watch_id is passed from userspace, it can be converted
to a negative value. This can cause invalid shifts and may access
memory outside the watch_points array.
drm/amdkfd: Fix watch_id bounds checking in debug address watch v2
Fix this by checking that watch_id is within MAX_WATCH_ADDRESSES before
using it. Also use BIT(watch_id) to test and clear bits safely.
This keeps the behavior unchanged for valid watch IDs and avoids
undefined behavior for invalid ones.
Fixes the below:

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udf: fix partition descriptor append bookkeeping
Mounting a crafted UDF image with repeated partition descriptors can
trigger a heap out-of-bounds write in part_descs_loc[].
handle_partition_descriptor() deduplicates entries by partition number,
but appended slots never record partnum. As a result duplicate
Partition Descriptors are appended repeatedly and num_part_descs keeps
growing.
Once the table is full, the growth path still sizes the allocation from
partnum even though inserts are indexed by num_part_descs. If partnum is
already aligned to PART_DESC_ALLOC_STEP, ALIGN(partnum, step) can keep
the old capacity and the next append writes past the end of the table.
Store partnum in the appended slot and size growth from the next append
count so deduplication and capacity tracking follow the same model.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip6_gre: Use cached t-net in ip6erspan_changelink().
After commit 5e72ce3e3980 ("net: ipv6: Use link netns in newlink() of
rtnl_link_ops"), ip6erspan_newlink() correctly resolves the per-netns
ip6gre hash via link_net. ip6erspan_changelink() was not converted in
that series and still uses dev_net(dev), which diverges from the
device's creation netns after IFLA_NET_NS_FD migration.
This re-inserts the tunnel into the wrong per-netns hash. The
original netns keeps a stale entry. When that netns is later
destroyed, ip6gre_exit_rtnl_net() walks the stale entry, producing a
slab-use-after-free reported by KASAN, followed by a kernel BUG at
net/core/dev.c (LIST_POISON1) in unregister_netdevice_many_notify().
Reachable from an unprivileged user namespace (unshare --user
--map-root-user --net).
ip6gre_changelink() earlier in the same file already uses the cached
t-net; only ip6erspan_changelink() has the wrong shape.

are not entirely covered by the protection of cgroup_mutex. Consequently,
if the code in pressure_write(), specifically the section handling the
ctx variable executes after cgroup_file_release() has completed, a uaf
vulnerability involving of-priv is triggered.
Therefore, the issue can be resolved by extending the scope of the
cgroup_mutex lock within pressure_write() to encompass all code paths
involving of-priv, thereby properly synchronizing the race condition
occurring between cgroup_file_release() and pressure_write().
And, if an live kn lock can be successfully acquired while executing
the pressure write operation, it indicates that the cgroup deletion
process has not yet reached its final stage; consequently, the priv
pointer within open_file cannot be NULL. Therefore, the operation to
retrieve the ctx value must be moved to a point *after* the live kn
lock has been successfully acquired.
In another situation, specifically after entering cgroup_kn_lock_live()
but before acquiring cgroup_mutex, there exists a different class of
race condition:
CPU0: write memory.pressure CPU1: write cgroup.pressure=0
=========================== =============================
kernfs_fop_write_iter()
kernfs_get_active_of(of)
pressure_write()
cgroup_kn_lock_live(memory.pressure)
cgroup_tryget(cgrp)
kernfs_break_active_protection(kn)
... blocks on cgroup_mutex
cgroup_pressure_write()
cgroup_kn_lock_live(cgroup.pressure)
cgroup_file_show(memory.pressure, false)
kernfs_show(false)
kernfs_drain_open_files()
cgroup_file_release(of)
kfree(ctx)
of-priv = NULL
cgroup_kn_unlock()
... acquires cgroup_mutex
ctx = of-priv; // may now be NULL
if (ctx-psi.trigger) // NULL dereference
Consequently, there is a possibility that of-priv is NULL, the pressure
write needs to check for this.
Now that the scope of the cgroup_mutex has been expanded, the original
explicit cgroup_get/put operations are no longer necessary, this is
because acquiring/releasing the live kn lock inherently executes a
cgroup get/put operation.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Clamp VBIOS HDMI retimer register count to array size
[Why & How]
The VBIOS integrated info tables (v1_11 and v2_1) contain HdmiRegNum and
Hdmi6GRegNum fields that are used as loop bounds when copying retimer I2C
register settings into fixed-size arrays (dp*_ext_hdmi_reg_settings[9]
and dp*_ext_hdmi_6g_reg_settings[3]). These u8 fields are not validated
before use, so a malformed VBIOS can specify values up to 255, causing an
out-of-bounds heap write during driver probe.
Clamp each register count to the destination array size using min_t()
before the copy loops, in both get_integrated_info_v11() and
get_integrated_info_v2_1().

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: Fix buffer overflow in SDMA queue checkpoint/restore on GFX11
The v11 MQD manager incorrectly assigned the CP-compute variants of
checkpoint_mqd/restore_mqd for KFD_MQD_TYPE_SDMA queues. These functions
use sizeof(struct v11_compute_mqd) (2048 bytes) instead of sizeof(struct
v11_sdma_mqd) (512 bytes), causing a 1536-byte overflow.
During CRIU checkpoint of an SDMA queue on Navi3x:
- checkpoint_mqd() reads 2048 bytes from a 512-byte SDMA MQD buffer,
leaking 1536 bytes of adjacent GTT memory to userspace
During CRIU restore:
- restore_mqd() writes 2048 bytes into a 512-byte SDMA MQD buffer,
corrupting 1536 bytes of adjacent GTT memory (often the ring buffer
or neighboring MQDs)
This is a copy-paste regression unique to v11. All other ASIC backends
(cik, vi, v9, v10, v12) correctly use the SDMA-specific variants.
Add checkpoint_mqd_sdma() and restore_mqd_sdma() functions that properly
handle the smaller v11_sdma_mqd structure, matching the pattern used in
other MQD managers.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Use krealloc_array() in dal_vector_reserve()
[Why & How]
dal_vector_reserve() computes the allocation size as
"capacity * vector-struct_size" using uint32_t arithmetic, which can
silently wrap to a small value on overflow. This would cause krealloc to
return a smaller buffer than expected, leading to heap overflows on
subsequent vector appends.
Replace krealloc() with krealloc_array() which performs an internal
overflow check and returns NULL on wrap, preventing the issue.

CVEID: CVE-2026-53374
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: zero-initialize GART table on allocation
GART TLB is flushed after unmapping but not after mapping. Since
amdgpu_bo_create_kernel() does not zero-initialize the buffer, when a
single PTE is written the TLB may speculatively load other uninitialized
entries from the same cacheline. Those garbage entries can appear valid,
and a subsequent write to another PTE in the same cacheline may cause the
GPU to use a stale garbage PTE from the TLB.
Fix this by calling memset_io() to zero-initialize the GART table with
gart_pte_flags immediately after allocation.
Using AMDGPU_GEM_CREATE_VRAM_CLEARED, SDMA-based clear will not work
since SDMA needs GART to be initialized to work.

CVEID: CVE-2026-63888
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iscsi: Fix CRC overread and double-free in iscsit_handle_text_cmd()
Two latent bugs in the Text-phase handler, both present since the
original LIO integration in commit e48354ce078c ("iscsi-target: Add
iSCSI fabric support for target v4.1"):
1) DataDigest CRC buffer overread (4 bytes past text_in).
text_in is kzalloc()'d at ALIGN(payload_length, 4). rx_size is then
incremented by ISCSI_CRC_LEN to make room for the received DataDigest
in the iovec, but the same (now-bumped) rx_size is passed as the
buffer length to iscsit_crc_buf():
if (conn-conn_ops-DataDigest) {
...
rx_size += ISCSI_CRC_LEN;
}
...
if (conn-conn_ops-DataDigest) {
data_crc = iscsit_crc_buf(text_in, rx_size, 0, NULL);
iscsit_crc_buf() walks rx_size bytes of text_in with crc32c(), so
when DataDigest is negotiated it reads 4 bytes past the end of the
text_in allocation. KASAN reproduces this directly on the unpatched
mainline tree as slab-out-of-bounds in crc32c() called from the Text
PDU path. The OOB bytes feed crc32c() and are then compared against
the initiator-supplied checksum, so the value does not flow back to
the attacker, but the kernel does read past the buffer on every Text
PDU with DataDigest=CRC32C.
Fix by passing the actual padded payload length
(ALIGN(payload_length, 4)) that was used for the kzalloc().
2) Stale cmd-text_in_ptr re-free (double-free) on ERL0 bad DataDigest
drop.
On DataDigest mismatch with ErrorRecoveryLevel 0 the handler
silently drops the PDU and lets the initiator plug the CmdSN gap:
kfree(text_in);
return 0;
cmd-text_in_ptr still points at the freed buffer. The next Text
Request on the same ITT re-enters iscsit_setup_text_cmd(), which
unconditionally does
kfree(cmd-text_in_ptr);
cmd-text_in_ptr = NULL;
freeing the same pointer a second time. Session teardown via
iscsit_release_cmd() has the same shape and hits the same double-free
if the connection is dropped before a second Text Request arrives.
On an unmodified mainline tree the bug-1 CRC overread fires first on
the initial valid Text Request and perturbs the subsequent state, so
#4 was isolated by building a kernel with only the bug-1 hunk of this
patch applied plus temporary printk() observability around the three
relevant kfree() sites. The observability prints are not part of
this patch. On that build, a three-PDU Text Request sequence after
login produces two back-to-back splats:
BUG: KASAN: double-free in iscsit_setup_text_cmd+0x??
BUG: KASAN: double-free in iscsit_release_cmd+0x??
showing the same pointer freed in the ERL0 drop path and again in
iscsit_setup_text_cmd() (next Text Request on the same ITT) and once
more in iscsit_release_cmd() (session teardown). On distro kernels
with CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED=y (default) the double-free
becomes a remote kernel BUG(); on non-hardened kernels it corrupts
the slab freelist.
Fix by clearing cmd-text_in_ptr after the kfree() in the ERL0 drop
path. With both hunks applied #4 is directly observable on the stock
tree without observability printks; fixing bug-1 alone would mask #4
less, not more, so the hunks are submitted together.
Both fixes are one-liners. The Text PDU state machine is unchanged and
the wire protocol is unaffected.

CVEID: CVE-2026-63952
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memfd: deny writeable mappings when implying SEAL_WRITE
When SEAL_EXEC is added, SEAL_WRITE is implied to make W^X. But the
implied seal is set after the check that makes sure the memfd can not have
any writable mappings. This means one can use SEAL_EXEC to apply
SEAL_WRITE while having writeable mappings.
This breaks the contract that SEAL_WRITE provides and can be used by an
attacker to pass a memfd that appears to be write sealed but can still be
modified arbitrarily.
Fix this by adding the implied seals before the call for
mapping_deny_writable() is done.

CVEID: CVE-2026-64007
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: synproxy: refresh tcphdr after skb_ensure_writable
synproxy_tstamp_adjust() rewrites the TCP timestamp option in place
and then patches the TCP checksum via inet_proto_csum_replace4() on
the caller-supplied tcphdr pointer. Both ipv4_synproxy_hook() and
ipv6_synproxy_hook() obtain that pointer with skb_header_pointer()
before calling in, so it may either alias skb-head directly or
point at the caller's on-stack _tcph buffer.
Between obtaining the pointer and using it, the function calls
skb_ensure_writable(skb, optend), which on a cloned or non-linear
skb invokes pskb_expand_head() and frees the old skb-head. After
that point the cached th is stale:
caller (ipv[46]_synproxy_hook)
th = skb_header_pointer(skb, ..., &_tcph)
synproxy_tstamp_adjust(skb, protoff, th, ...)
skb_ensure_writable(skb, optend)
pskb_expand_head() /* kfree(old skb-head) */
...
inet_proto_csum_replace4(&th-check, ...)
/* writes into freed head, or
into the caller's stack copy
leaving the on-wire checksum
stale */
The option bytes are written through skb-data and are fine; only
the checksum update goes through th and so lands in the wrong
place. The result is either a write into freed slab memory or a
packet leaving with a checksum that does not match its payload.
Fix by re-deriving th from skb-data + protoff immediately after
skb_ensure_writable() succeeds, so the subsequent checksum update
targets the linear, writable header.

is a no-op in release builds. If a caller ever passes length 16 this
results in a stack buffer overflow via memcpy.
Additionally, link_index is used to dereference dc-links[] without
bounds checking against dc-link_count, risking an out-of-bounds access.
Replace the ASSERT with a hard runtime check that returns false when
payload-length exceeds the destination buffer size, and add a bounds
check for link_index before it is used.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
posix-cpu-timers: Prevent UAF caused by non-leader exec() race
Wongi and Jungwoo decoded and reported a non-leader exec() related race
which can result in an UAF:
sys_timer_delete() exec()
posix_cpu_timer_del()
// Observes old leader
p = pid_task(pid, pid_type); de_thread()
switch_leader();
release_task(old_leader)
__exit_signal(old_leader)
sighand = lock(old_leader, sighand);
posix_cpu_timers*_exit();
sighand = lock_task_sighand(p) unhash_task(old_leader);
sh = lock(p, sighand) old_leader-sighand = NULL;
unlock(sighand);
(p-sighand == NULL)
unlock(sh)
return NULL;
// Returns without action
if(!sighand)
return 0;
free_posix_timer();
This is "harmless" unless the deleted timer was armed and enqueued in
p-signal because on exec() a TGID targeted timer is inherited.
As sys_timer_delete() freed the underlying posix timer object
run_posix_cpu_timers() or any timerqueue related add/delete operations on
other timers will access the freed object's timerqueue node, which results
in an UAF.
There is a similar problem vs. posix_cpu_timer_set(). For regular posix
timers it just transiently returns -ESRCH to user space, but for the use
case in do_cpu_nanosleep() it's the same UAF just that the k_itimer is
allocated on the stack.
Also posix_cpu_timer_rearm() fails to rearm the timer, which means it stops
to expire.
While debating solutions Frederic pointed out another problem:
posix_cpu_timer_del(tmr)
__exit_signal(p)
posix_cpu_timers*_exit(p);
unhash_task(p);
p-sighand = NULL;
sh = lock_task_sighand(p)
sighand = p-sighand;
if (!sighand)
return NULL;
lock(sighand);
if (!sh)
WARN_ON_ONCE(timer_queued(tmr));
On weakly ordered architectures it is not guaranteed that
posix_cpu_timer_del() will observe the stores in posix_cpu_timers*_exit()
when p-sighand is observed as NULL, which means the WARN() can be a false
positive.
Solve these issues by:
1) Changing the store in __exit_signal() to smp_store_release().
2) Adding a smp_acquire__after_ctrl_dep() into the !sighand path
of lock_task_sighand().
3) Creating a helper function for looking up the task and locking sighand
which does not return when sighand == NULL. Instead it retries the
task lookup and only if that fails it gives up.
4) Using that helper in the three affected functions.
#1/#2 ensures that the reader side which observes sighand == NULL also
observes all preceeding stores, i.e. the stores in posix_cpu_timers*_exit()
and the ones in unhash_task().
#3 ensures that the above described non-leader exec() situation is handled
gracefully. When the task lookup returns the old leader, but sighand ==
NULL then it retries. In the non-leader exec() case the subsequent task
lookup will observe the new leader due to #1/#2. In normal exit() scenarios
the subsequent lookup fails.
When the task lookup fails, the function also checks whether the timer is
still enqueued and issues a warning if that's the case. Unfortunately there
is nothing which can be done about it, but as the task is already not
longer visible the timer should not be accessed anymore. This check also
requires memory ordering, which is not provided when the first lookup
fails. To achieve that the check is preceeded by a smp_rmb() which pairs
with the smp_wmb() in write_seqlock() in __exit_signal(). That ensures that
the stores in posix_cpu_timers*_exit() are visible.
The history of the non-leader exec() issue goes back to the early days of
posix CPU timers, which stored a pointer to the group leader task in the
timer. That obviously fails when a non-leader exec() switches the leader.
commit e0a70217107e ("posix-cpu-timers: workaround to suppress the problems
with mt exec") added a temporary workaround for that in 2010 which surv

CVEID: CVE-2026-68388
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb/client: handle overlapping allocated ranges in fallocate
smb3_simple_fallocate_range() can skip holes when an allocated range
returned by the server starts before the current fallocate offset. The
skipped hole is not zero-filled, but fallocate still returns success. A
later write to that hole may therefore fail with ENOSPC.
The function queries allocated ranges so that it can preserve existing
contents and write zeroes only into holes. However, the server may return
a range that starts before the current fallocate offset.
For example, assume the fallocate request is [100, 400) and the only
allocated range returned by the server is [0, 200):
Request: [100, 400)
Server range: [ 0, 200) allocated
Correct:
[100, 200) allocated data, skip
[200, 400) hole, zero-fill
Current:
[100, 300) skipped
[300, 400) zero-filled afterwards
The current code adds the full server range length, 200, to the current
offset 100 and moves to 300. As a result, the hole in [200, 300) is
skipped without being zero-filled.
Fix this by advancing only over the part of the allocated range that
overlaps the current fallocate offset. Ignore ranges that end before the
current offset and reject ranges whose end offset overflows.
This also prevents a malformed range length from causing an out-of-bounds
zero-buffer read.

CVEID: CVE-2026-53264
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: act_api: use RCU with deferred freeing for action lifecycle
When NEWTFILTER and DELFILTER are run concurrently it is possible to create a
race with an associated action.
Let's illustrate with CPU0 running NEWTFILTER and CPU1 running DELFILTER:
0: mutex_lock() -- holds the idr lock
0: rcu_read_lock()
0: p = idr_find(idr, index) -- action p is valid (RCU protects IDR)
0: mutex_unlock() -- releases the idr lock
1: refcount_dec_and_mutex_lock() -- refcnt 1-0, mutex held
1: idr_remove(idr, index) -- Action removed from IDR
1: mutex_unlock() -- mutex released allowing us to delete the action
1: tcf_action_cleanup(p); kfree(p) -- Kfrees p immediately, no deferral
0: refcount_inc_not_zero(&p-tcfa_refcnt) -- ouch, UAF p points to freed memory
This patch fixes the race condition between NEWTFILTER and DELFILTER by
adding struct rcu_head to tc_action used in the deferral and introducing a
call_rcu() in the delete path to defer the final kfree().
Note: this is a revert of commit d7fb60b9cafb ("net_sched: get rid of tcfa_rcu")
but also modernization/simplification to directly use kfree_rcu().
Let's illustrate the new restored code path:
0: rcu_read_lock()
1: refcount_dec_and_mutex_lock() -- refcnt 1-0, mutex held
1: idr_remove(idr, index)
1: mutex_unlock()
1: call_rcu(&p-tcfa_rcu, tcf_action_rcu_free) -- defer kfree after grace period
0: p = idr_find(idr, index)
0: refcount_inc_not_zero(&p-tcfa_refcnt) -- fails, refcnt already 0
1: rcu_read_unlock() -- release so freeing can run after grace period
After CPU1 calls idr_remove(), the object is no longer reachable through the IDR.
CPU0's subsequent idr_find() will return NULL, and even if it still held a
stale pointer, the immediate kfree() is now deferred until after the RCU grace
period, so no UAF can occur.

CVEID: CVE-2026-52923
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipc: limit next_id allocation to the valid ID range
The checkpoint/restore sysctl path can request the next SysV IPC id
through ids-next_id. ipc_idr_alloc() currently forwards that request to
idr_alloc() with an open-ended upper bound.
If the valid tail of the SysV IPC id space is full, the allocation can
spill beyond ipc_mni. The returned SysV IPC id still uses the normal
index encoding, so later lookup and removal can target the wrong slot.
This leaves the real IDR entry behind and breaks the IDR state for the
object.
The bug is in ipc_idr_alloc() in the checkpoint/restore path.
1. ids-next_id is passed to:
idr_alloc(&ids-ipcs_idr, new, ipcid_to_idx(next_id), 0, ...)
2. The zero upper bound makes the allocation effectively open-ended.
Once the valid SysV IPC tail is occupied, idr_alloc() can spill past
ipc_mni and allocate an entry beyond the valid IPC id range.
3. The new object id is still encoded with the narrower SysV IPC index
width:
new-id = (new-seq ipcmni_seq_shift()) + idx
4. Later removal goes through ipc_rmid(), which uses:
ipcid_to_idx(ipcp-id)
That truncates the real IDR index. An object actually stored at a
high index can then be removed as if it lived at a low in-range
index.
5. For shared memory, shm_destroy() frees the current object anyway, but
the real high IDR slot is left behind as a dangling pointer.
6. A subsequent walk of /proc/sysvipc/shm reaches the stale IDR entry
and dereferences freed memory.
Prevent this by bounding the requested allocation to ipc_mni so the
checkpoint/restore path fails once the valid range is exhausted.

tipc_msg_validate() can potentially reallocate the skb it is validating,

If the skb was reallocated and validation subsequently failed, the error
handling path would free the original skb pointer, which had already
been freed, leading to double-free.

skb. If it does, reassign *headbuf for later freeing operations.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: cls_api: Handle TC_ACT_CONSUMED in tcf_qevent_handle
tcf_classify() can return TC_ACT_CONSUMED while the skb is held by the
defragmentation engine (e.g. act_ct on out-of-order fragments). When
that happens the skb is no longer owned by the caller and must not be
touched again.
tcf_qevent_handle() did not handle TC_ACT_CONSUMED: it fell through the
switch and returned the skb to the caller as if classification had
passed. The only qdisc that wires up qevents today is RED, via three call sites
(qe_mark on RED_PROB_MARK/HARD_MARK, qe_early_drop on congestion_drop)
red_enqueue() was continuing to operate on an skb it no longer owns in this
case -- enqueueing it, dropping it, or updating statistics. Resulting in a UAF.
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: red ... qevent early_drop block 10
tc filter add block 10 ... action ct
(with ct defrag enabled and traffic that produces out-of-order
fragments, e.g. a fragmented UDP stream)
Handle TC_ACT_CONSUMED in tcf_qevent_handle() the same way the ingress
and egress fast paths do: treat it as stolen and return NULL without
touching the skb. Unlike the TC_ACT_STOLEN case, the skb must not be
dropped/freed here, as it is no longer owned by us.

CVEID: CVE-2025-40026
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86: Don't (re)check L1 intercepts when completing userspace I/O
When completing emulation of instruction that generated a userspace exit
for I/O, don't recheck L1 intercepts as KVM has already finished that
phase of instruction execution, i.e. has already committed to allowing L2
to perform I/O. If L1 (or host userspace) modifies the I/O permission
bitmaps during the exit to userspace, KVM will treat the access as being
intercepted despite already having emulated the I/O access.
Pivot on EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE to detect that KVM is completing emulation.
Of the three users of EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE, only complete_emulated_io() (the
intended "recipient") can reach the code in question. gp_interception()'s
use is mutually exclusive with is_guest_mode(), and
complete_emulated_insn_gp() unconditionally pairs EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE with
EMULTYPE_SKIP.
The bad behavior was detected by a syzkaller program that toggles port I/O
interception during the userspace I/O exit, ultimately resulting in a WARN
on vcpu-arch.pio.count being non-zero due to KVM no completing emulation
of the I/O instruction.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: Fix error cleanup in xe_exec_queue_create_ioctl()
Two error handling issues exist in xe_exec_queue_create_ioctl():
1. When xe_hw_engine_group_add_exec_queue() fails, the error path jumps
to put_exec_queue which skips xe_exec_queue_kill(). If the VM is in
preempt fence mode, xe_vm_add_compute_exec_queue() has already added
the queue to the VM's compute exec queue list. Skipping the kill
leaves the queue on that list, leading to a dangling pointer after
the queue is freed.
2. When xa_alloc() fails after xe_hw_engine_group_add_exec_queue() has
succeeded, the error path does not call
xe_hw_engine_group_del_exec_queue() to remove the queue from the hw
engine group list. The queue is then freed while still linked into
the hw engine group, causing a use-after-free.
Fix both by:
- Changing the xe_hw_engine_group_add_exec_queue() failure path to jump
to kill_exec_queue so that xe_exec_queue_kill() properly removes the
queue from the VM's compute list.
- Adding a del_hw_engine_group label before kill_exec_queue for the
xa_alloc() failure path, which removes the queue from the hw engine
group before proceeding with the rest of the cleanup.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm log: fix out-of-bounds write due to region_count overflow
The local variable region_count in create_log_context() is declared as
unsigned int (32-bit), but dm_sector_div_up() returns sector_t (64-bit).
When a device-mapper target has a sufficiently large ti-len with a small
region_size, the division result can exceed UINT_MAX. The truncated
value is then used to calculate bitset_size, causing clean_bits,
sync_bits, and recovering_bits to be allocated far smaller than needed
for the actual number of regions.
Subsequent log operations (log_set_bit, log_clear_bit, log_test_bit) use
region indices derived from the full untruncated region space, causing
out-of-bounds writes to kernel heap memory allocated by vmalloc.
This can be reproduced by creating a mirror target whose region_count
overflows 32 bits:
dmsetup create bigzero --table '0 8589934594 zero'
dmsetup create mymirror --table '0 8589934594 mirror \
core 2 2 nosync 2 /dev/mapper/bigzero 0 \
/dev/mapper/bigzero 0'
The status output confirms the truncation (sync_count=1 instead of
4294967297, because 0x100000001 was truncated to 1):
$ dmsetup status mymirror
0 8589934594 mirror 2 254:1 254:1 1/4294967297 ...

CVEID: CVE-2026-31411
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: atm: fix crash due to unvalidated vcc pointer in sigd_send()
Reproducer available at [1].
The ATM send path (sendmsg - vcc_sendmsg - sigd_send) reads the vcc
pointer from msg-vcc and uses it directly without any validation. This
pointer comes from userspace via sendmsg() and can be arbitrarily forged:
int fd = socket(AF_ATMSVC, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
ioctl(fd, ATMSIGD_CTRL); // become ATM signaling daemon
struct msghdr msg = { .msg_iov = &iov, ... };
*(unsigned long *)(buf + 4) = 0xdeadbeef; // fake vcc pointer
sendmsg(fd, &msg, 0); // kernel dereferences 0xdeadbeef
In normal operation, the kernel sends the vcc pointer to the signaling
daemon via sigd_enq() when processing operations like connect(), bind(),
or listen(). The daemon is expected to return the same pointer when
responding. However, a malicious daemon can send arbitrary pointer values.
Fix this by introducing find_get_vcc() which validates the pointer by
searching through vcc_hash (similar to how sigd_close() iterates over
all VCCs), and acquires a reference via sock_hold() if found.
Since struct atm_vcc embeds struct sock as its first member, they share
the same lifetime. Therefore using sock_hold/sock_put is sufficient to
keep the vcc alive while it is being used.
Note that there may be a race with sigd_close() which could mark the vcc
with various flags (e.g., ATM_VF_RELEASED) after find_get_vcc() returns.
However, sock_hold() guarantees the memory remains valid, so this race
only affects the logical state, not memory safety.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: fix potential race in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock()
Code in tcp_v6_syn_recv_sock() after the call to tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock()
is done too late.
After tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock(), the child socket is already visible
from TCP ehash table and other cpus might use it.
Since newinet-pinet6 is still pointing to the listener ipv6_pinfo
bad things can happen as syzbot found.
Move the problematic code in tcp_v6_mapped_child_init()
and call this new helper from tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() before
the ehash insertion.
This allows the removal of one tcp_sync_mss(), since
tcp_v4_syn_recv_sock() will call it with the correct
context.

DESCRIPTION: Issue summary: During processing of a crafted CMS EnvelopedData message
with KeyTransportRecipientInfo a NULL pointer dereference can happen.
Impact summary: Applications that process attacker-controlled CMS data may
crash before authentication or cryptographic operations occur resulting in
Denial of Service.
When a CMS EnvelopedData message that uses KeyTransportRecipientInfo with
RSA-OAEP encryption is processed, the optional parameters field of
RSA-OAEP SourceFunc algorithm identifier is examined without checking
for its presence. This results in a NULL pointer dereference if the field
is missing.
Applications and services that call CMS_decrypt() on untrusted input
(e.g., S/MIME processing or CMS-based protocols) are vulnerable.
The FIPS modules in 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3 and 3.0 are not affected by this
issue, as the affected code is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.

CVEID: CVE-2026-31488
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Do not skip unrelated mode changes in DSC validation
Starting with commit 17ce8a6907f7 ("drm/amd/display: Add dsc pre-validation in
atomic check"), amdgpu resets the CRTC state mode_changed flag to false when
recomputing the DSC configuration results in no timing change for a particular
stream.
However, this is incorrect in scenarios where a change in MST/DSC configuration
happens in the same KMS commit as another (unrelated) mode change. For example,
the integrated panel of a laptop may be configured differently (e.g., HDR
enabled/disabled) depending on whether external screens are attached. In this
case, plugging in external DP-MST screens may result in the mode_changed flag
being dropped incorrectly for the integrated panel if its DSC configuration
did not change during precomputation in pre_validate_dsc().
At this point, however, dm_update_crtc_state() has already created new streams
for CRTCs with DSC-independent mode changes. In turn,
amdgpu_dm_commit_streams() will never release the old stream, resulting in a
memory leak. amdgpu_dm_atomic_commit_tail() will never acquire a reference to
the new stream either, which manifests as a use-after-free when the stream gets
disabled later on:

Since there is no reliable way of figuring out whether a CRTC has unrelated
mode changes pending at the time of DSC validation, remember the value of the
mode_changed flag from before the point where a CRTC was marked as potentially
affected by a change in DSC configuration. Reset the mode_changed flag to this
earlier value instead in pre_validate_dsc().

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

CVEID: CVE-2026-43329
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: flowtable: strictly check for maximum number of actions
The maximum number of flowtable hardware offload actions in IPv6 is:
* ethernet mangling (4 payload actions, 2 for each ethernet address)
* SNAT (4 payload actions)
* DNAT (4 payload actions)
* Double VLAN (4 vlan actions, 2 for popping vlan, and 2 for pushing)
for QinQ.
* Redirect (1 action)
Which makes 17, while the maximum is 16. But act_ct supports for tunnels
actions too. Note that payload action operates at 32-bit word level, so
mangling an IPv6 address takes 4 payload actions.
Update flow_action_entry_next() calls to check for the maximum number of
supported actions.
While at it, rise the maximum number of actions per flow from 16 to 24
so this works fine with IPv6 setups.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/iwcm: Fix workqueue list corruption by removing work_list
The commit e1168f0 ("RDMA/iwcm: Simplify cm_event_handler()")
changed the work submission logic to unconditionally call
queue_work() with the expectation that queue_work() would
have no effect if work was already pending. The problem is
that a free list of struct iwcm_work is used (for which
struct work_struct is embedded), so each call to queue_work()
is basically unique and therefore does indeed queue the work.
This causes a problem in the work handler which walks the work_list
until it's empty to process entries. This means that a single
run of the work handler could process item N+1 and release it
back to the free list while the actual workqueue entry is still
queued. It could then get reused (INIT_WORK...) and lead to
list corruption in the workqueue logic.
Fix this by just removing the work_list. The workqueue already
does this for us.
This fixes the following error that was observed when stress
testing with ucmatose on an Intel E830 in iWARP mode:

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
selinux: fix overlayfs mmap() and mprotect() access checks
The existing SELinux security model for overlayfs is to allow access if
the current task is able to access the top level file (the "user" file)
and the mounter's credentials are sufficient to access the lower
level file (the "backing" file). Unfortunately, the current code does
not properly enforce these access controls for both mmap() and mprotect()
operations on overlayfs filesystems.
This patch makes use of the newly created security_mmap_backing_file()
LSM hook to provide the missing backing file enforcement for mmap()
operations, and leverages the backing file API and new LSM blob to
provide the necessary information to properly enforce the mprotect()
access controls.

826af7fa62e3 ("ALSA: aloop: Fix racy access at PCM trigger") moved

runs after dropping that lock.
A concurrent close can clear the capture entry from cable-streams[] and
detach or free its runtime while the playback trigger path still holds a
stale peer substream pointer.
Keep a per-cable count of in-flight peer stops before dropping
cable-lock, and make free_cable() wait for those stops before
detaching the runtime. This preserves the existing behavior while
making the peer runtime lifetime explicit.

RDMA/mlx5: Fix error path fall-through in mlx5_ib_dev_res_srq_init()
mlx5_ib_dev_res_srq_init() allocates two SRQs, s0 and s1. When
ib_create_srq() fails for s1, the error branch destroys s0 but falls
through and unconditionally assigns the freed s0 and the ERR_PTR s1 to
devr-s0 and devr-s1.
This leads to several problems: the lock-free fast path checks
"if (devr-s1) return 0;" and treats the ERR_PTR as already initialised;
users in mlx5_ib_create_qp() dereference the freed SRQ or ERR_PTR via
to_msrq(devr-s0)-msrq.srqn; and mlx5_ib_dev_res_cleanup() dereferences
the ERR_PTR and double-frees s0 on teardown.
Fix by adding the same `goto unlock` in the s1 failure path.

CVEID: CVE-2025-39797
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: Duplicate SPI Handling
The issue originates when Strongswan initiates an XFRM_MSG_ALLOCSPI
Netlink message, which triggers the kernel function xfrm_alloc_spi().
This function is expected to ensure uniqueness of the Security Parameter
Index (SPI) for inbound Security Associations (SAs). However, it can
return success even when the requested SPI is already in use, leading
to duplicate SPIs assigned to multiple inbound SAs, differentiated
only by their destination addresses.
This behavior causes inconsistencies during SPI lookups for inbound packets.
Since the lookup may return an arbitrary SA among those with the same SPI,
packet processing can fail, resulting in packet drops.
According to RFC 4301 section 4.4.2 , for inbound processing a unicast SA
is uniquely identified by the SPI and optionally protocol.
Reproducing the Issue Reliably:
To consistently reproduce the problem, restrict the available SPI range in
charon.conf : spi_min = 0x10000000 spi_max = 0x10000002
This limits the system to only 2 usable SPI values.
Next, create more than 2 Child SA. each using unique pair of src/dst address.
As soon as the 3rd Child SA is initiated, it will be assigned a duplicate
SPI, since the SPI pool is already exhausted.
With a narrow SPI range, the issue is consistently reproducible.
With a broader/default range, it becomes rare and unpredictable.
Current implementation:
xfrm_spi_hash() lookup function computes hash using daddr, proto, and family.
So if two SAs have the same SPI but different destination addresses, then
they will:
a. Hash into different buckets
b. Be stored in different linked lists (byspi + h)
c. Not be seen in the same hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() iteration.
As a result, the lookup will result in NULL and kernel allows that Duplicate SPI
Proposed Change:
xfrm_state_lookup_spi_proto() does a truly global search - across all states,
regardless of hash bucket and matches SPI and proto.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lib/buildid: use __kernel_read() for sleepable context
Prevent a "BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference in
filemap_read_folio".
For the sleepable context, convert freader to use __kernel_read() instead
of direct page cache access via read_cache_folio(). This simplifies the
faultable code path by using the standard kernel file reading interface
which handles all the complexity of reading file data.
At the moment we are not changing the code for non-sleepable context which
uses filemap_get_folio() and only succeeds if the target folios are
already in memory and up-to-date. The reason is to keep the patch simple
and easier to backport to stable kernels.
Syzbot repro does not crash the kernel anymore and the selftests run
successfully.
In the follow up we will make __kernel_read() with IOCB_NOWAIT work for
non-sleepable contexts. In addition, I would like to replace the
secretmem check with a more generic approach and will add fstest for the
buildid code.

Currently need_futex_hash_allocate_default() depends on strict pthread

Loosen the check to cover any CLONE_VM clone, except vfork(). Excluding
vfork keeps the existing paths untouched (no overhead), and we can't
race in the first place: either the parent is suspended and the child
runs alone, or mm-futex_ref is already allocated from an earlier
CLONE_VM.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/vt-d: Avoid NULL pointer dereference or refcount corruption
Commit 60f030f7418d ("iommu/vt-d: Avoid use of NULL after WARN_ON_ONCE")
fixed a NULL pointer dereference in an unlikely situation partly.
If dev_pasid is not found in the dev_pasids list, it remains NULL.
However, the teardown operations are executed unconditionally, this lead
to a NULL pointer dereference or refcount corruption.
If the domain was never attached to this IOMMU, info will be NULL, which
would cause an immediate dereference when checking --info-refcnt.
Even if info is not NULL, decrementing the refcount without having removed
a valid PASID might unbalance the count. This could lead to premature
dropping of the refcount to 0, potentially causing a use-after-free for the
remaining active devices sharing the domain.
Fix it by returning early if dev_pasid is NULL, before executing the

CVEID: CVE-2026-64017
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-mq: pop cached request if it is usable
When submitting a bio to blk-mq, if the task should sleep after peeking
a cached request, but before it pops it, the plug flushes and calls
blk_mq_free_plug_rqs, freeing the cached_rqs. This creates a
use-after-free bug. Fix this by popping the cached request before any
possible blocking calls if it is suitable for use.
Popping this request first holds a queue reference, so avoid any
serialization races with queue freezes and can safely proceed with
dispatching that request to the driver. This potentially increases a
timing window from when a driver wants to freeze its queue to when
requests stop being dispatched. That scenario is off the fast path
though, and drivers need to appropriately handle requests during a
freeze request anyway.
The downside is the popped element needs to be individually freed when
we performed a bio plug merge. The cached request would have had to be
freed later anyway, but this patch does it inline with building the plug
list instead of after flushing it.

CVEID: CVE-2026-22979
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: fix memory leak in skb_segment_list for GRO packets
When skb_segment_list() is called during packet forwarding, it handles
packets that were aggregated by the GRO engine.
Historically, the segmentation logic in skb_segment_list assumes that
individual segments are split from a parent SKB and may need to carry
their own socket memory accounting. Accordingly, the code transfers
truesize from the parent to the newly created segments.
Prior to commit ed4cccef64c1 ("gro: fix ownership transfer"), this
truesize subtraction in skb_segment_list() was valid because fragments
still carry a reference to the original socket.
However, commit ed4cccef64c1 ("gro: fix ownership transfer") changed
this behavior by ensuring that fraglist entries are explicitly
orphaned (skb-sk = NULL) to prevent illegal orphaning later in the
stack. This change meant that the entire socket memory charge remained
with the head SKB, but the corresponding accounting logic in
skb_segment_list() was never updated.
As a result, the current code unconditionally adds each fragment's
truesize to delta_truesize and subtracts it from the parent SKB. Since
the fragments are no longer charged to the socket, this subtraction
results in an effective under-count of memory when the head is freed.
This causes sk_wmem_alloc to remain non-zero, preventing socket
destruction and leading to a persistent memory leak.
The leak can be observed via KMEMLEAK when tearing down the networking
environment:
unreferenced object 0xffff8881e6eb9100 (size 2048):
comm "ping", pid 6720, jiffies 4295492526

inet6_create.part.0+0x303/0x10d0
__sock_create+0x248/0x640
__sys_socket+0x11b/0x1d0
Since skb_segment_list() is exclusively used for SKB_GSO_FRAGLIST
packets constructed by GRO, the truesize adjustment is removed.
The call to skb_release_head_state() must be preserved. As documented in
commit cf673ed0e057 ("net: fix fraglist segmentation reference count
leak"), it is still required to correctly drop references to SKB
extensions that may be overwritten during __copy_skb_header().

CVEID: CVE-2026-43499
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rtmutex: Use waiter::task instead of current in remove_waiter()
remove_waiter() is used by the slowlock paths, but it is also used for
proxy-lock rollback in rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock() when invoked from
futex_requeue().
In the latter case waiter::task is not current, but remove_waiter()
operates on current for the dequeue operation. That results in several
problems:
1) the rbtree dequeue happens without waiter::task::pi_lock being held
2) the waiter task's pi_blocked_on state is not cleared, which leaves a
dangling pointer primed for UAF around.
3) rt_mutex_adjust_prio_chain() operates on the wrong top priority waiter
task
Use waiter::task instead of current in all related operations in
remove_waiter() to cure those problems.

CVEID: CVE-2026-46086
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: use a stable FDB dst snapshot in RCU readers
Local FDB entries can be rewritten in place by `fdb_delete_local()`, which
updates `f-dst` to another port or to `NULL` while keeping the entry
alive. Several bridge RCU readers inspect `f-dst`, including
`br_fdb_fillbuf()` through the `brforward_read()` sysfs path.
These readers currently load `f-dst` multiple times and can therefore
observe inconsistent values across the check and later dereference.
In `br_fdb_fillbuf()`, this means a concurrent local-FDB update can change
`f-dst` after the NULL check and before the `port_no` dereference,
leading to a NULL-ptr-deref.
Fix this by taking a single `READ_ONCE()` snapshot of `f-dst` in each
affected RCU reader and using that snapshot for the rest of the access
sequence. Also publish the in-place `f-dst` updates in `fdb_delete_local()`
with `WRITE_ONCE()` so the readers and writer use matching access patterns.

CVEID: CVE-2026-40253
DESCRIPTION: openCryptoki is a PKCS#11 library and provides tooling for Linux and AIX. In versions 3.26.0 and below, the BER/DER decoding functions in the shared common library (asn1.c) accept a raw pointer but no buffer length parameter, and trust attacker-controlled BER length fields without validating them against actual buffer boundaries. All primitive decoders are affected: ber_decode_INTEGER, ber_decode_SEQUENCE, ber_decode_OCTET_STRING, ber_decode_BIT_STRING, and ber_decode_CHOICE. Additionally, ber_decode_INTEGER can produce integer underflows when the encoded length is zero. An attacker supplying a malformed BER-encoded cryptographic object through PKCS#11 operations such as C_CreateObject or C_UnwrapKey, token loading from disk, or remote backend communication can trigger out-of-bounds reads. This affects all token backends (Soft, ICA, CCA, TPM, EP11, ICSF) since the vulnerable code is in the shared common library. A patch is available thorugh commit ed378f463ef73364c89feb0fc923f4dc867332a3.

CVEID: CVE-2026-53266
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: bridge: make ebt_snat ARP rewrite writable
The ebtables SNAT target keeps the Ethernet source address rewrite
behind skb_ensure_writable(skb, 0). This is intentional: at the bridge
ebtables hooks the Ethernet header is addressed through
skb_mac_header()/eth_hdr(), while skb-data points at the Ethernet
payload. Asking skb_ensure_writable() for ETH_HLEN bytes would check
the payload, not the Ethernet header, and would reintroduce the small
packet regression fixed by commit 63137bc5882a.
However, the optional ARP sender hardware address rewrite is different.
It writes through skb_store_bits() at an offset relative to skb-data:
skb_store_bits(skb, sizeof(struct arphdr), info-mac, ETH_ALEN)
skb_header_pointer() only safely reads the ARP header; it does not make
the later sender hardware address range writable. If that range is
still held in a nonlinear skb fragment backed by a splice-imported file
page, skb_store_bits() maps the frag page and copies the new MAC address
directly into it.
Ensure the ARP SHA range is writable before reading the ARP header and
before calling skb_store_bits().

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mana: Fix double destroy_workqueue on service rescan PCI path
While testing corner cases in the driver, a use-after-free crash
was found on the service rescan PCI path.
When mana_serv_reset() calls mana_gd_suspend(), mana_gd_cleanup()
destroys gc-service_wq. If the subsequent mana_gd_resume() fails
with -ETIMEDOUT or -EPROTO, the code falls through to
mana_serv_rescan() which triggers pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device().
This invokes the PCI .remove callback (mana_gd_remove), which calls
mana_gd_cleanup() a second time, attempting to destroy the already-
freed workqueue. Fix this by NULL-checking gc-service_wq in
mana_gd_cleanup() and setting it to NULL after destruction.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: defensively unhash xfrm_state lists in __xfrm_state_delete
KASAN reproduces a slab-use-after-free in __xfrm_state_delete()'s
hlist_del_rcu calls under syzkaller load on linux-6.12.y stable
(reproduced on 6.12.47, also reachable via the same code path on
torvalds/master and on the ipsec tree). Nine unique signatures cluster
in the xfrm_state lifecycle, the load-bearing one being:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __hlist_del include/linux/list.h:990 [inline]
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in hlist_del_rcu include/linux/rculist.h:516 [inline]

__xfrm_state_delete
xfrm_state_delete
xfrm_state_flush

The other observed signatures hit the same slab object from
__xfrm_state_lookup, xfrm_alloc_spi, __xfrm_state_insert and an OOB
write variant of __xfrm_state_delete, all on the byseq/byspi
hash chains.
__xfrm_state_delete() guards its byseq and byspi unhashes with
value-based predicates:
if (x-km.seq)
hlist_del_rcu(&x-byseq);
if (x-id.spi)
hlist_del_rcu(&x-byspi);
while everywhere else in the file (e.g. state_cache, state_cache_input)
the safer hlist_unhashed() check is used. xfrm_alloc_spi() sets
x-id.spi = newspi inside xfrm_state_lock and then immediately inserts
into byspi, but a path that observes x-id.spi != 0 outside of
xfrm_state_lock can still skip-or-hit the byspi unhash inconsistently
with whether x is actually on the list. The same holds for x-km.seq
versus byseq, and the bydst/bysrc unhashes have no predicate at all,
so a second __xfrm_state_delete() on the same object writes through
LIST_POISON pprev.
The defensive change here:
- Use hlist_del_init_rcu() instead of hlist_del_rcu() on bydst,
bysrc, byseq and byspi so a second deletion is a no-op rather
than a write through LIST_POISON pprev. The byseq/byspi nodes
are already initialised in xfrm_state_alloc().
- Test hlist_unhashed() rather than the value predicate for
byseq/byspi, so the unhash decision tracks list state rather than
mutable scalar fields.
Empirical verification: applied this patch on top of v6.12.47, rebuilt,
and re-ran the same syzkaller harness for 1h16m on a previously-crashy
configuration that produced ~100 hits each of slab-use-after-free
Read in xfrm_alloc_spi / Read in __xfrm_state_lookup / Write in
__xfrm_state_delete. After the patch, 7.1M execs across 32 VMs at
~1550 exec/sec produced zero xfrm_state UAF/OOB hits. /proc/slabinfo
confirms the xfrm_state slab is actively allocated and freed during
the run (~143 KiB resident), so the fuzzer is still exercising those
code paths -- they just no longer crash.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/gem: Fix inconsistent plane dimension calculation in drm_gem_fb_init_with_funcs()
drm_gem_fb_init_with_funcs() computes sub-sampled plane dimensions
using plain integer division:
unsigned int width = mode_cmd-width / (i ? info-hsub : 1);
unsigned int height = mode_cmd-height / (i ? info-vsub : 1);
However, the ioctl-level framebuffer_check() in drm_framebuffer.c uses
drm_format_info_plane_width/height() which round up dimensions via
DIV_ROUND_UP(). This inconsistency corrupts the subsequent GEM object
size check for certain pixel format and dimension combinations.
For example, with NV12 (vsub=2) and a 1-pixel-tall framebuffer the
GEM size validation path sees height=0 instead of height=1. The
expression (height - 1) then wraps to UINT_MAX as an unsigned int,
causing min_size to overflow and wrap back to a small value. A tiny
GEM object therefore passes the size guard, yet when the GPU accesses
the chroma plane it will read or write memory beyond the object's
bounds.
Fix by replacing the open-coded divisions with drm_format_info_plane_width()
and drm_format_info_plane_height(), which use DIV_ROUND_UP() and match
the calculation already used in framebuffer_check().

CVEID: CVE-2026-46227
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: revalidate list cursor after sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc() in SCTP_SENDALL
The SCTP_SENDALL path in sctp_sendmsg() iterates ep-asocs with
list_for_each_entry_safe(), which caches the next entry in @tmp before
the loop body runs. The body calls sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc(), which may
drop the socket lock inside sctp_wait_for_sndbuf().
While the lock is dropped, another thread can SCTP_SOCKOPT_PEELOFF the
association cached in @tmp, migrating it to a new endpoint via
sctp_sock_migrate() (list_del_init() + list_add_tail() to
newep-asocs), and optionally close the new socket which frees the
association via kfree_rcu(). The cached @tmp can also be freed by a
network ABORT for that association, processed in softirq while the
lock is dropped.
sctp_wait_for_sndbuf() revalidates @asoc (the current entry) on re-lock
via the "sk != asoc-base.sk" and "asoc-base.dead" checks, but nothing
revalidates @tmp. After a successful return, the iterator advances to
the stale @tmp, yielding either a use-after-free (if the peeled socket
was closed) or a list-walk onto the new endpoint's list head (type
confusion of &newep-asocs as a struct sctp_association *).
Both are reachable from CapEff=0; the type-confusion path gives
controlled indirect call via the outqueue.sched-init_sid pointer.
Fix by re-deriving @tmp from @asoc after sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc()
returns. @asoc is known to still be on ep-asocs at that point: the
only callers that list_del an association from ep-asocs are
sctp_association_free() (which sets asoc-base.dead) and
sctp_assoc_migrate() (which changes asoc-base.sk), and
sctp_wait_for_sndbuf() checks both under the lock before any

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_inner: Fix IPv6 inner_thoff desync
In nft_inner_parse_l2l3(), when processing inner IPv6 packets,
ipv6_find_hdr() correctly computes the transport header offset
traversing all extension headers, but the result is immediately
overwritten with nhoff + sizeof(_ip6h) (40 bytes), which only
accounts for the IPv6 base header. This creates a desync between
inner_thoff (wrong — points to extension header start) and l4proto
(correct — e.g., IPPROTO_TCP), enabling transport header forgery
and potential firewall bypass. This issue affects stable versions
from Linux 6.2.
For comparison, the normal (non-inner) IPv6 path correctly
preserves ipv6_find_hdr()'s result. Removing the incorrect overwrite
ensures that ipv6_find_hdr()'s calculated transport header offset is
preserved, thereby fixing the desynchronization.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: vgic-its: Drop the translation cache reference only for the erased entry
vgic_its_invalidate_cache() walks the per-ITS translation cache with
xa_for_each() and drops the cache's reference on each entry with
vgic_put_irq(). It puts the iterated pointer, though, rather than the
value returned by xa_erase().
The function is called from contexts that do not exclude one another: the
ITS command handlers hold its_lock, the GITS_CTLR write path holds
cmd_lock, and the path that clears EnableLPIs in a redistributor's
GICR_CTLR holds neither. Two or more of them can drain the same cache
concurrently, and if each one observes the same entry, erases it and then
puts it, the single reference the cache holds on that entry is dropped
more than once. The entry can then be freed while an ITE still maps it.
xa_erase() is atomic and returns the previous entry, so put only the entry
that this context actually removed. The cache reference is then dropped
exactly once per entry even when the invalidations run concurrently, and
the behavior is unchanged when only one context runs.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: isotp: fix tx.buf use-after-free in isotp_sendmsg()
isotp_sendmsg() uses only cmpxchg() on so-tx.state to serialize access
to so-tx.buf. isotp_release() waits for ISOTP_IDLE via
wait_event_interruptible() and then calls kfree(so-tx.buf).
If a signal interrupts the wait_event_interruptible() inside close()
while tx.state is ISOTP_SENDING, the loop exits early and release
proceeds to force ISOTP_SHUTDOWN and continues to kfree(so-tx.buf)
while sendmsg may still be reading so-tx.buf for the final CAN frame
in isotp_fill_dataframe().
The so-tx.buf can be allocated once when the standard tx.buf length needs
to be extended. Move the kfree() of this potentially extended tx.buf to
sk_destruct time when either isotp_sendmsg() and isotp_release() are done.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: fix slab-use-after-free in __inet_lookup_established
The ehash table lookups are lockless and rely on
SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU to guarantee socket memory stability
during RCU read-side critical sections. Both tcp_prot and
tcpv6_prot have their slab caches created with this flag
via proto_register().
However, MPTCP's mptcp_subflow_init() copies tcpv6_prot into
tcpv6_prot_override during inet_init() (fs_initcall, level 5),
before inet6_init() (module_init/device_initcall, level 6) has
called proto_register(&tcpv6_prot). At that point,
tcpv6_prot.slab is still NULL, so tcpv6_prot_override.slab
remains NULL permanently.
This causes MPTCP v6 subflow child sockets to be allocated via
kmalloc (falling into kmalloc-4k) instead of the TCPv6 slab
cache. The kmalloc-4k cache lacks SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU, so
when these sockets are freed without SOCK_RCU_FREE (which is
cleared for child sockets by design), the memory can be
immediately reused. Concurrent ehash lookups under
rcu_read_lock can then access freed memory, triggering a
slab-use-after-free in __inet_lookup_established.
Fix this by splitting the IPv6-specific initialization out of
mptcp_subflow_init() into a new mptcp_subflow_v6_init(), called
from mptcp_proto_v6_init() before protocol registration. This
ensures tcpv6_prot_override.slab correctly inherits the
SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU slab cache.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_sync: fix stack buffer overflow in hci_le_big_create_sync
hci_le_big_create_sync() uses DEFINE_FLEX to allocate a
struct hci_cp_le_big_create_sync on the stack with room for 0x11 (17)
BIS entries. However, conn-num_bis can hold up to HCI_MAX_ISO_BIS (31)
entries — validated against ISO_MAX_NUM_BIS (0x1f) in the caller
hci_conn_big_create_sync(). When conn-num_bis is between 18 and 31,
the memcpy that copies conn-bis into cp-bis writes up to 14 bytes
past the stack buffer, corrupting adjacent stack memory.
This is trivially reproducible: binding an ISO socket with
bc_num_bis = ISO_MAX_NUM_BIS (31) and calling listen() will
eventually trigger hci_le_big_create_sync() from the HCI command
sync worker, causing a KASAN-detectable stack-out-of-bounds write:

Fix this by changing the DEFINE_FLEX count from the incorrect 0x11 to
HCI_MAX_ISO_BIS, which matches the maximum number of BIS entries that
conn-bis can actually carry.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xen/privcmd: fix double free via VMA splitting
privcmd_vm_ops defines .close (privcmd_close), but neither .may_split
nor .open. When userspace does a partial munmap() on a privcmd mapping,
the kernel splits the VMA via __split_vma(). Since may_split is NULL,
the split is allowed. vm_area_dup() copies vm_private_data (a pages
array allocated in alloc_empty_pages()) into the new VMA without any
fixup, because there is no .open callback.
Both VMAs now point to the same pages array. When the unmapped portion
is closed, privcmd_close() calls:
- xen_unmap_domain_gfn_range()
- xen_free_unpopulated_pages()
- kvfree(pages)
The surviving VMA still holds the dangling pointer. When it is later
destroyed, the same sequence runs again, which leads to a double free.
Fix this issue by adding a .may_split callback denying the VMA split.

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

For addressing it, add a sanity check of the transfer buffer size at
prepare_silent_urb(), and stop the data copy if the received data
overflows. Also, report back the transfer error properly from there,
too.
Note that this doesn't fix the root cause of the playback error
itself, but this merely covers the kernel Oops.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: Fix use-after-free in iomap inline data write path
The inline data buffer head (dibh) is being released prematurely in
gfs2_iomap_begin() via release_metapath() while iomap-inline_data
still points to dibh-b_data. This causes a use-after-free when
iomap_write_end_inline() later attempts to write to the inline data
area.
The bug sequence:
1. gfs2_iomap_begin() calls gfs2_meta_inode_buffer() to read inode
metadata into dibh
2. Sets iomap-inline_data = dibh-b_data + sizeof(struct gfs2_dinode)
3. Calls release_metapath() which calls brelse(dibh), dropping refcount
to 0
4. kswapd reclaims the page (~39ms later in the syzbot report)
5. iomap_write_end_inline() tries to memcpy() to iomap-inline_data
6. KASAN detects use-after-free write to freed memory
Fix by storing dibh in iomap-private and incrementing its refcount
with get_bh() in gfs2_iomap_begin(). The buffer is then properly
released in gfs2_iomap_end() after the inline write completes,
ensuring the page stays alive for the entire iomap operation.
Note: A C reproducer is not available for this issue. The fix is based
on analysis of the KASAN report and code review showing the buffer head
is freed before use.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvmet-tcp: fix race between ICReq handling and queue teardown
nvmet_tcp_handle_icreq() updates queue-state after sending an
Initialization Connection Response (ICResp), but it does so without
serializing against target-side queue teardown.
If an NVMe/TCP host sends an Initialization Connection Request
(ICReq) and immediately closes the connection, target-side teardown
may start in softirq context before io_work drains the already
buffered ICReq. In that case, nvmet_tcp_schedule_release_queue()
sets queue-state to NVMET_TCP_Q_DISCONNECTING and drops the queue
reference under state_lock.
If io_work later processes that ICReq, nvmet_tcp_handle_icreq() can
still overwrite the state back to NVMET_TCP_Q_LIVE. That defeats the
DISCONNECTING-state guard in nvmet_tcp_schedule_release_queue() and
allows a later socket state change to re-enter teardown and issue a
second kref_put() on an already released queue.
The ICResp send failure path has the same problem. If teardown has
already moved the queue to DISCONNECTING, a send error can still
overwrite the state with NVMET_TCP_Q_FAILED, again reopening the
window for a second teardown path to drop the queue reference.
Fix this by serializing both post-send state transitions with
state_lock and bailing out if teardown has already started.
Use -ESHUTDOWN as an internal sentinel for that bail-out path rather
than propagating it as a transport error like -ECONNRESET. Keep
nvmet_tcp_socket_error() setting rcv_state to NVMET_TCP_RECV_ERR before
honoring that sentinel so receive-side parsing stays quiesced until the
existing release path completes.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
exit: prevent preemption of oopsing TASK_DEAD task
When an already-exiting task oopses, make_task_dead() currently calls
do_task_dead() with preemption enabled. That is forbidden:
do_task_dead() calls __schedule(), which has a comment saying "WARNING:
must be called with preemption disabled!".
If an oopsing task is preempted in do_task_dead(), between becoming
TASK_DEAD and entering the scheduler explicitly, bad things happen:
finish_task_switch() assumes that once the scheduler has switched away
from a TASK_DEAD task, the task can never run again and its stack is no
longer needed; but that assumption apparently doesn't hold if the dead
task was preempted (the SM_PREEMPT case).
This means that the scheduler ends up repeatedly dropping references on
the dead task's stack, which can lead to use-after-free or double-free
of the entire task stack; in other words, two tasks can end up running
on the same stack, resulting in various kinds of memory corruption.
(This does not just affect "recursively oopsing" tasks; it is enough to
oops once during task exit, for example in a file_operations::release
handler)

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Fix improper freeing of purex item
In qla2xxx_process_purls_iocb(), an item is allocated via
qla27xx_copy_multiple_pkt(), which internally calls
qla24xx_alloc_purex_item().
The qla24xx_alloc_purex_item() function may return a pre-allocated item
from a per-adapter pool for small allocations, instead of dynamically
allocating memory with kzalloc().
An error handling path in qla2xxx_process_purls_iocb() incorrectly uses
kfree() to release the item. If the item was from the pre-allocated
pool, calling kfree() on it is a bug that can lead to memory corruption.
Fix this by using the correct deallocation function,
qla24xx_free_purex_item(), which properly handles both dynamically
allocated and pre-allocated items.

libceph: make decode_pool() more resilient against corrupted osdmaps
If the osdmap is (maliciously) corrupted such that the encoded length
of ceph_pg_pool envelope is less than what is expected for a particular
encoding version, out-of-bounds reads may ensue because the only bounds
check that is there is based on that length value.
This patch adds explicit bounds checks for each field that is decoded

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

As Paolo said earlier [1]:
"Since the blamed commit below, classify can return TC_ACT_CONSUMED while
the current skb being held by the defragmentation engine. As reported by
GangMin Kim, if such packet is that may cause a UaF when the defrag engine
later on tries to tuch again such packet."
act_ct was never meant to be used in the egress path, however some users
are attaching it to egress today [2]. Attempting to reach a middle
ground, we noticed that, while most qdiscs are not handling
TC_ACT_CONSUMED, clsact/ingress qdiscs are. With that in mind, we
address the issue by only allowing act_ct to bind to clsact/ingress
qdiscs and shared blocks. That way it's still possible to attach act_ct to
egress (albeit only with clsact).

KVM: x86/mmu: Drop/zap existing present SPTE even when creating an MMIO SPTE
When installing an emulated MMIO SPTE, do so *after* dropping/zapping the
existing SPTE (if it's shadow-present). While commit a54aa15c6bda3 was
right about it being impossible to convert a shadow-present SPTE to an
MMIO SPTE due to a _guest_ write, it failed to account for writes to guest
memory that are outside the scope of KVM.
E.g. if host userspace modifies a shadowed gPTE to switch from a memslot
to emulted MMIO and then the guest hits a relevant page fault, KVM will
install the MMIO SPTE without first zapping the shadow-present SPTE.

CVEID: CVE-2026-31402
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix heap overflow in NFSv4.0 LOCK replay cache
The NFSv4.0 replay cache uses a fixed 112-byte inline buffer
(rp_ibuf[NFSD4_REPLAY_ISIZE]) to store encoded operation responses.
This size was calculated based on OPEN responses and does not account
for LOCK denied responses, which include the conflicting lock owner as
a variable-length field up to 1024 bytes (NFS4_OPAQUE_LIMIT).
When a LOCK operation is denied due to a conflict with an existing lock
that has a large owner, nfsd4_encode_operation() copies the full encoded
response into the undersized replay buffer via read_bytes_from_xdr_buf()
with no bounds check. This results in a slab-out-of-bounds write of up
to 944 bytes past the end of the buffer, corrupting adjacent heap memory.
This can be triggered remotely by an unauthenticated attacker with two
cooperating NFSv4.0 clients: one sets a lock with a large owner string,
then the other requests a conflicting lock to provoke the denial.
We could fix this by increasing NFSD4_REPLAY_ISIZE to allow for a full
opaque, but that would increase the size of every stateowner, when most
lockowners are not that large.
Instead, fix this by checking the encoded response length against
NFSD4_REPLAY_ISIZE before copying into the replay buffer. If the
response is too large, set rp_buflen to 0 to skip caching the replay
payload. The status is still cached, and the client already received the
correct response on the original request.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: raw: fix ro-uniq use-after-free in raw_rcv()
raw_release() unregisters raw CAN receive filters via can_rx_unregister(),
but receiver deletion is deferred with call_rcu(). This leaves a window
where raw_rcv() may still be running in an RCU read-side critical section
after raw_release() frees ro-uniq, leading to a use-after-free of the
percpu uniq storage.
Move free_percpu(ro-uniq) out of raw_release() and into a raw-specific
socket destructor. can_rx_unregister() takes an extra reference to the
socket and only drops it from the RCU callback, so freeing uniq from
sk_destruct ensures the percpu area is not released until the relevant
callbacks have drained.

CVEID: CVE-2026-31607
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usbip: validate number_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit()
When a USB/IP client receives a RET_SUBMIT response,
usbip_pack_ret_submit() unconditionally overwrites
urb-number_of_packets from the network PDU. This value is
subsequently used as the loop bound in usbip_recv_iso() and
usbip_pad_iso() to iterate over urb-iso_frame_desc[], a flexible
array whose size was fixed at URB allocation time based on the
*original* number_of_packets from the CMD_SUBMIT.
A malicious USB/IP server can set number_of_packets in the response
to a value larger than what was originally submitted, causing a heap
out-of-bounds write when usbip_recv_iso() writes to
urb-iso_frame_desc[i] beyond the allocated region.
KASAN confirmed this with kernel 7.0.0-rc5:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in usbip_recv_iso+0x46a/0x640
Write of size 4 at addr ffff888106351d40 by task vhci_rx/69
The buggy address is located 0 bytes to the right of
allocated 320-byte region [ffff888106351c00, ffff888106351d40)
The server side (stub_rx.c) and gadget side (vudc_rx.c) already
validate number_of_packets in the CMD_SUBMIT path since commits
c6688ef9f297 ("usbip: fix stub_rx: harden CMD_SUBMIT path to handle
malicious input") and b78d830f0049 ("usbip: fix vudc_rx: harden
CMD_SUBMIT path to handle malicious input"). The server side validates
against USBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS because no URB exists yet at that point.
On the client side we have the original URB, so we can use the tighter
bound: the response must not exceed the original number_of_packets.
This mirrors the existing validation of actual_length against
transfer_buffer_length in usbip_recv_xbuff(), which checks the
response value against the original allocation size.
Kelvin Mbogo's series ("usb: usbip: fix integer overflow in
usbip_recv_iso()", v2) hardens the receive-side functions themselves;
this patch complements that work by catching the bad value at its
source -- in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the overwrite -- and
using the tighter per-URB allocation bound rather than the global
USBIP_MAX_ISO_PACKETS limit.
Fix this by checking rpdu-number_of_packets against
urb-number_of_packets in usbip_pack_ret_submit() before the
overwrite. On violation, clamp to zero so that usbip_recv_iso() and
usbip_pad_iso() safely return early.

RDMA/umem: Fix double dma_buf_unpin in failure path
In ib_umem_dmabuf_get_pinned_with_dma_device(), the call to
ib_umem_dmabuf_map_pages() can fail. If this occurs, the dmabuf
is immediately unpinned but the umem_dmabuf-pinned flag is still
set. Then, when ib_umem_release() is called, it calls
ib_umem_dmabuf_revoke() which will call dma_buf_unpin() again.
Fix this by removing the immediate unpin upon failure and just let
the ib_umem_release/revoke path handle it. This also ensures the
proper unmap-unpin unwind ordering if the dmabuf_map_pages call
happened to fail due to dma_resv_wait_timeout (and therefore has
a non-NULL umem_dmabuf-sgt).

CVEID: CVE-2026-43284
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: esp: avoid in-place decrypt on shared skb frags
MSG_SPLICE_PAGES can attach pages from a pipe directly to an skb. TCP
marks such skbs with SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG after skb_splice_from_iter(),
so later paths that may modify packet data can first make a private
copy. The IPv4/IPv6 datagram append paths did not set this flag when
splicing pages into UDP skbs.
That leaves an ESP-in-UDP packet made from shared pipe pages looking
like an ordinary uncloned nonlinear skb. ESP input then takes the no-COW
fast path for uncloned skbs without a frag_list and decrypts in place
over data that is not owned privately by the skb.
Mark IPv4/IPv6 datagram splice frags with SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG, matching
TCP. Also make ESP input fall back to skb_cow_data() when the flag is
present, so ESP does not decrypt externally backed frags in place.
Private nonlinear skb frags still use the existing fast path.
This intentionally does not change ESP output. In esp_output_head(),
the path that appends the ESP trailer to existing skb tailroom without
calling skb_cow_data() is not reachable for nonlinear skbs:
skb_tailroom() returns zero when skb-data_len is nonzero, while ESP
tailen is positive. Thus ESP output will either use the separate
destination-frag path or fall back to skb_cow_data().

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: skbuff: preserve shared-frag marker during coalescing
skb_try_coalesce() can attach paged frags from @from to @to. If @from
has SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG set, the resulting @to skb can contain the same
externally-owned or page-cache-backed frags, but the shared-frag marker
is currently lost.
That breaks the invariant relied on by later in-place writers. In
particular, ESP input checks skb_has_shared_frag() before deciding
whether an uncloned nonlinear skb can skip skb_cow_data(). If TCP
receive coalescing has moved shared frags into an unmarked skb, ESP can
see skb_has_shared_frag() as false and decrypt in place over page-cache
backed frags.
Propagate SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG when skb_try_coalesce() transfers paged
frags. The tailroom copy path does not need the marker because it copies
bytes into @to's linear data rather than transferring frag descriptors.

CVEID: CVE-2026-46333
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ptrace: slightly saner 'get_dumpable()' logic
The 'dumpability' of a task is fundamentally about the memory image of
the task - the concept comes from whether it can core dump or not - and
makes no sense when you don't have an associated mm.
And almost all users do in fact use it only for the case where the task
has a mm pointer.
But we have one odd special case: ptrace_may_access() uses 'dumpable' to
check various other things entirely independently of the MM (typically
explicitly using flags like PTRACE_MODE_READ_FSCREDS). Including for
threads that no longer have a VM (and maybe never did, like most kernel
threads).
It's not what this flag was designed for, but it is what it is.
The ptrace code does check that the uid/gid matches, so you do have to
be uid-0 to see kernel thread details, but this means that the
traditional "drop capabilities" model doesn't make any difference for
this all.
Make it all make a *bit* more sense by saying that if you don't have a
MM pointer, we'll use a cached "last dumpability" flag if the thread
ever had a MM (it will be zero for kernel threads since it is never
set), and require a proper CAP_SYS_PTRACE capability to override.

CVEID: CVE-2025-22105
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bonding: check xdp prog when set bond mode
Following operations can trigger a warning[1]:
ip netns add ns1
ip netns exec ns1 ip link add bond0 type bond mode balance-rr
ip netns exec ns1 ip link set dev bond0 xdp obj af_xdp_kern.o sec xdp
ip netns exec ns1 ip link set bond0 type bond mode broadcast
ip netns del ns1
When delete the namespace, dev_xdp_uninstall() is called to remove xdp
program on bond dev, and bond_xdp_set() will check the bond mode. If bond
mode is changed after attaching xdp program, the warning may occur.
Some bond modes (broadcast, etc.) do not support native xdp. Set bond mode
with xdp program attached is not good. Add check for xdp program when set
bond mode.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: fix resource leak in blk_register_queue() error path
When registering a queue fails after blk_mq_sysfs_register() is

to clean up the blk_mq_sysfs resources.
Add the missing blk_mq_sysfs_unregister() call in the error path
to properly clean up these resources and prevent a memory leak.

CVEID: CVE-2025-38097
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
espintcp: remove encap socket caching to avoid reference leak
The current scheme for caching the encap socket can lead to reference
leaks when we try to delete the netns.
The reference chain is: xfrm_state - enacp_sk - netns
Since the encap socket is a userspace socket, it holds a reference on
the netns. If we delete the espintcp state (through flush or
individual delete) before removing the netns, the reference on the
socket is dropped and the netns is correctly deleted. Otherwise, the
netns may not be reachable anymore (if all processes within the ns
have terminated), so we cannot delete the xfrm state to drop its
reference on the socket.
This patch results in a small (~2% in my tests) performance
regression.
A GC-type mechanism could be added for the socket cache, to clear
references if the state hasn't been used "recently", but it's a lot
more complex than just not caching the socket.

After calling bpf_exec_tx_verdict(), the size of msg_pl-sg may increase,
e.g., when the BPF program executes bpf_msg_push_data().
If the BPF program sets cork_bytes and sg.size is smaller than cork_bytes,
it will return -ENOSPC and attempt to roll back to the non-zero copy
logic. However, during rollback, msg-msg_iter is reset, but since
msg_pl-sg.size has been increased, subsequent executions will exceed the
actual size of msg_iter.
'''
iov_iter_revert(&msg-msg_iter, msg_pl-sg.size - orig_size);
'''
The changes in this commit are based on the following considerations:
1. When cork_bytes is set, rolling back to non-zero copy logic is
pointless and can directly go to zero-copy logic.
2. We can not calculate the correct number of bytes to revert msg_iter.
Assume the original data is "abcdefgh" (8 bytes), and after 3 pushes
by the BPF program, it becomes 11-byte data: "abc?de?fgh?".
Then, we set cork_bytes to 6, which means the first 6 bytes have been
processed, and the remaining 5 bytes "?fgh?" will be cached until the
length meets the cork_bytes requirement.
However, some data in "?fgh?" is not within 'sg-msg_iter'
(but in msg_pl instead), especially the data "?" we pushed.
So it doesn't seem as simple as just reverting through an offset of
msg_iter.
3. For non-TLS sockets in tcp_bpf_sendmsg, when a "cork" situation occurs,
the user-space send() doesn't return an error, and the returned length is
the same as the input length parameter, even if some data is cached.
Additionally, I saw that the current non-zero-copy logic for handling
corking is written as:
'''
line 1177
else if (ret != -EAGAIN) {
if (ret == -ENOSPC)
ret = 0;
goto send_end;
'''
So it's ok to just return 'copied' without error when a "cork" situation
occurs.

When nfs_fs_proc_net_init() fails, /proc/net/rpc/nfs is not removed.
Later, rpc_proc_exit() tries to remove /proc/net/rpc, and the warning
is logged as the directory is not empty.
Let's handle the error of nfs_fs_proc_net_init() properly.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvmet: fix memory leak of bio integrity
If nvmet receives commands with metadata there is a continuous memory
leak of kmalloc-128 slab or more precisely bio-bi_integrity.
Since commit bf4c89fc8797 ("block: don't call bio_uninit from bio_endio")
each user of bio_init has to use bio_uninit as well. Otherwise the bio
integrity is not getting free. Nvmet uses bio_init for inline bios.
Uninit the inline bio to complete deallocation of integrity in bio.

CVEID: CVE-2025-38470
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: vlan: fix VLAN 0 refcount imbalance of toggling filtering during runtime
Assuming the "rx-vlan-filter" feature is enabled on a net device, the
8021q module will automatically add or remove VLAN 0 when the net device
is put administratively up or down, respectively. There are a couple of
problems with the above scheme.
The first problem is a memory leak that can happen if the "rx-vlan-filter"
feature is disabled while the device is running:
# ip link add bond1 up type bond mode 0
# ethtool -K bond1 rx-vlan-filter off
# ip link del dev bond1
When the device is put administratively down the "rx-vlan-filter"
feature is disabled, so the 8021q module will not remove VLAN 0 and the
memory will be leaked [1].
Another problem that can happen is that the kernel can automatically
delete VLAN 0 when the device is put administratively down despite not
adding it when the device was put administratively up since during that
time the "rx-vlan-filter" feature was disabled. null-ptr-unref or
bug_on[2] will be triggered by unregister_vlan_dev() for refcount
imbalance if toggling filtering during runtime:
$ ip link add bond0 type bond mode 0
$ ip link add link bond0 name vlan0 type vlan id 0 protocol 802.1q
$ ethtool -K bond0 rx-vlan-filter off
$ ifconfig bond0 up
$ ethtool -K bond0 rx-vlan-filter on
$ ifconfig bond0 down
$ ip link del vlan0
Root cause is as below:
step1: add vlan0 for real_dev, such as bond, team.
register_vlan_dev
vlan_vid_add(real_dev,htons(ETH_P_8021Q),0) //refcnt=1
step2: disable vlan filter feature and enable real_dev
step3: change filter from 0 to 1
vlan_device_event
vlan_filter_push_vids
ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid //No refcnt added to real_dev vlan0
step4: real_dev down
vlan_device_event
vlan_vid_del(dev, htons(ETH_P_8021Q), 0); //refcnt=0
vlan_info_rcu_free //free vlan0
step5: delete vlan0
unregister_vlan_dev
BUG_ON(!vlan_info); //vlan_info is null
Fix both problems by noting in the VLAN info whether VLAN 0 was
automatically added upon NETDEV_UP and based on that decide whether it
should be deleted upon NETDEV_DOWN, regardless of the state of the
"rx-vlan-filter" feature.

Fix this by checking if a valid table (map) exists before performing
request-based suspend and waiting for target I/O. When map is NULL,
skip these table-dependent suspend steps.
Even when map is NULL, no I/O can reach any target because there is
no table loaded; I/O submitted in this state will fail early in the
DM layer. Skipping the table-dependent suspend logic in this case
is safe and avoids NULL pointer dereferences.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/umad: Reject negative data_len in ib_umad_write
ib_umad_write computes data_len from user-controlled count and the
MAD header sizes. With a mismatched user MAD header size and RMPP
header length, data_len can become negative and reach ib_create_send_mad().
This can make the padding calculation exceed the segment size and trigger
an out-of-bounds memset in alloc_send_rmpp_list().
Add an explicit check to reject negative data_len before creating the
send buffer.

CVEID: CVE-2025-69419
DESCRIPTION: Issue summary: Calling PKCS12_get_friendlyname() function on a maliciously
crafted PKCS#12 file with a BMPString (UTF-16BE) friendly name containing
non-ASCII BMP code point can trigger a one byte write before the allocated
buffer.
Impact summary: The out-of-bounds write can cause a memory corruption
which can have various consequences including a Denial of Service.
The OPENSSL_uni2utf8() function performs a two-pass conversion of a PKCS#12
BMPString (UTF-16BE) to UTF-8. In the second pass, when emitting UTF-8 bytes,
the helper function bmp_to_utf8() incorrectly forwards the remaining UTF-16
source byte count as the destination buffer capacity to UTF8_putc(). For BMP
code points above U+07FF, UTF-8 requires three bytes, but the forwarded
capacity can be just two bytes. UTF8_putc() then returns -1, and this negative
value is added to the output length without validation, causing the
length to become negative. The subsequent trailing NUL byte is then written
at a negative offset, causing write outside of heap allocated buffer.
The vulnerability is reachable via the public PKCS12_get_friendlyname() API
when parsing attacker-controlled PKCS#12 files. While PKCS12_parse() uses a
different code path that avoids this issue, PKCS12_get_friendlyname() directly
invokes the vulnerable function. Exploitation requires an attacker to provide
a malicious PKCS#12 file to be parsed by the application and the attacker
can just trigger a one zero byte write before the allocated buffer.
For that reason the issue was assessed as Low severity according to our
Security Policy.
The FIPS modules in 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3 and 3.0 are not affected by this issue,
as the PKCS#12 implementation is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.
OpenSSL 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.3, 3.0 and 1.1.1 are vulnerable to this issue.
OpenSSL 1.0.2 is not affected by this issue.

CVEID: CVE-2026-34986
DESCRIPTION: Go JOSE provides an implementation of the Javascript Object Signing and Encryption set of standards in Go, including support for JSON Web Encryption (JWE), JSON Web Signature (JWS), and JSON Web Token (JWT) standards. Prior to 4.1.4 and 3.0.5, decrypting a JSON Web Encryption (JWE) object will panic if the alg field indicates a key wrapping algorithm (one ending in KW, with the exception of A128GCMKW, A192GCMKW, and A256GCMKW) and the encrypted_key field is empty. The panic happens when cipher.KeyUnwrap() in key_wrap.go attempts to allocate a slice with a zero or negative length based on the length of the encrypted_key. This code path is reachable from ParseEncrypted() / ParseEncryptedJSON() / ParseEncryptedCompact() followed by Decrypt() on the resulting object. Note that the parse functions take a list of accepted key algorithms. If the accepted key algorithms do not include any key wrapping algorithms, parsing will fail and the application will be unaffected. This panic is also reachable by calling cipher.KeyUnwrap() directly with any ciphertext parameter less than 16 bytes long, but calling this function directly is less common. Panics can lead to denial of service. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.1.4 and 3.0.5.

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

CVEID: CVE-2026-41991
DESCRIPTION: GNU gzip contains a vulnerability in the gzexe utility related to insecure temporary file handling. When the mktemp utility is not available in the user’s PATH, gzexe falls back to constructing a temporary file path based solely on the process ID (PID). This predictable filename is created without exclusive access or existence checks.
A local attacker can pre‑create the predicted temporary file path as a symbolic link pointing to an arbitrary file writable by the victim. When gzexe runs, it follows the symlink and overwrites the target file, resulting in a time‑of‑check to time‑of‑use (TOCTOU) condition that allows arbitrary file overwrite.

CVEID: CVE-2026-41992
DESCRIPTION: GNU gzip contains a global buffer overflow vulnerability in the LZH decompression logic caused by improper reuse of shared global state between different decompression formats within a single execution. GNU gzip maintains a global array that is shared across the LZ77, LZW, and LZH decompression routines and is not reinitialized between files processed in the same invocation.
By decompressing a specially crafted LZW file followed by a specially crafted LZH file in a single gzip -d command, an attacker can poison the shared global state and subsequently trigger an out‑of‑bounds read in the LZH decoder. The LZH decompression logic follows stale values left in the shared array, causing reads past the end of the allocated global buffer.
This issue has been fixed in commits 63dbf6b3b9e6e781df1a6a64e609b10e23969681 and e7378c2d421be6a286922374425680bbe9ad8b7d.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nfnetlink_cthelper: fix OOB read in nfnl_cthelper_dump_table()
nfnl_cthelper_dump_table() has a 'goto restart' that jumps to a label
inside the for loop body. When the "last" helper saved in cb-args[1]
is deleted between dump rounds, every entry fails the (cur != last)
check, so cb-args[1] is never cleared. The for loop finishes with
cb-args[0] == nf_ct_helper_hsize, and the 'goto restart' jumps back
into the loop body bypassing the bounds check, causing an 8-byte
out-of-bounds read on nf_ct_helper_hash[nf_ct_helper_hsize].
The 'goto restart' block was meant to re-traverse the current bucket
when "last" is no longer found, but it was placed after the for loop
instead of inside it. Move the block into the for loop body so that
the restart only occurs while cb-args[0] is still within bounds.

DESCRIPTION: pgjdbc is an open source postgresql JDBC Driver. From version 42.2.0 to before version 42.7.11, pgjdbc is vulnerable to a client-side denial of service during SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication. A malicious server can instruct the driver to perform SCRAM authentication with a very large iteration count. With a large enough value, the client spends an unbounded amount of CPU time inside PBKDF2 before authentication can fail. A single attempt ties up a CPU core. Repeated or concurrent attempts exhaust client CPU and can wedge connection pools. In affected versions, loginTimeout did not fully mitigate this problem. When loginTimeout expired, the caller could stop waiting, but the worker thread performing the connection attempt could continue running and burning CPU inside the SCRAM PBKDF2 computation. This issue has been patched in version 42.7.11.

CVEID: CVE-2025-68183
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ima: don't clear IMA_DIGSIG flag when setting or removing non-IMA xattr
Currently when both IMA and EVM are in fix mode, the IMA signature will
be reset to IMA hash if a program first stores IMA signature in
security.ima and then writes/removes some other security xattr for the
file.
For example, on Fedora, after booting the kernel with "ima_appraise=fix
evm=fix ima_policy=appraise_tcb" and installing rpm-plugin-ima,
installing/reinstalling a package will not make good reference IMA
signature generated. Instead IMA hash is generated,
# getfattr -m - -d -e hex /usr/bin/bash
# file: usr/bin/bash
security.ima=0x0404...
This happens because when setting security.selinux, the IMA_DIGSIG flag
that had been set early was cleared. As a result, IMA hash is generated
when the file is closed.
Similarly, IMA signature can be cleared on file close after removing
security xattr like security.evm or setting/removing ACL.
Prevent replacing the IMA file signature with a file hash, by preventing
the IMA_DIGSIG flag from being reset.
Here's a minimal C reproducer which sets security.selinux as the last
step which can also replaced by removing security.evm or setting ACL,

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu: disable SVA when CONFIG_X86 is set
Patch series "Fix stale IOTLB entries for kernel address space", v7.
This proposes a fix for a security vulnerability related to IOMMU Shared
Virtual Addressing (SVA). In an SVA context, an IOMMU can cache kernel
page table entries. When a kernel page table page is freed and
reallocated for another purpose, the IOMMU might still hold stale,
incorrect entries. This can be exploited to cause a use-after-free or
write-after-free condition, potentially leading to privilege escalation or
data corruption.
This solution introduces a deferred freeing mechanism for kernel page
table pages, which provides a safe window to notify the IOMMU to
invalidate its caches before the page is reused.
This patch (of 8):
In the IOMMU Shared Virtual Addressing (SVA) context, the IOMMU hardware
shares and walks the CPU's page tables. The x86 architecture maps the
kernel's virtual address space into the upper portion of every process's
page table. Consequently, in an SVA context, the IOMMU hardware can walk
and cache kernel page table entries.
The Linux kernel currently lacks a notification mechanism for kernel page
table changes, specifically when page table pages are freed and reused.
The IOMMU driver is only notified of changes to user virtual address
mappings. This can cause the IOMMU's internal caches to retain stale
entries for kernel VA.
Use-After-Free (UAF) and Write-After-Free (WAF) conditions arise when
kernel page table pages are freed and later reallocated. The IOMMU could
misinterpret the new data as valid page table entries. The IOMMU might
then walk into attacker-controlled memory, leading to arbitrary physical
memory DMA access or privilege escalation. This is also a
Write-After-Free issue, as the IOMMU will potentially continue to write
Accessed and Dirty bits to the freed memory while attempting to walk the
stale page tables.
Currently, SVA contexts are unprivileged and cannot access kernel
mappings. However, the IOMMU will still walk kernel-only page tables all
the way down to the leaf entries, where it realizes the mapping is for the
kernel and errors out. This means the IOMMU still caches these
intermediate page table entries, making the described vulnerability a real
concern.
Disable SVA on x86 architecture until the IOMMU can receive notification
to flush the paging cache before freeing the CPU kernel page table pages.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: release flowtable after rcu grace period on error
Call synchronize_rcu() after unregistering the hooks from error path,
since a hook that already refers to this flowtable can be already
registered, exposing this flowtable to packet path and nfnetlink_hook
control plane.
This error path is rare, it should only happen by reaching the maximum
number hooks or by failing to set up to hardware offload, just call
synchronize_rcu().
There is a check for already used device hooks by different flowtable
that could result in EEXIST at this late stage. The hook parser can be
updated to perform this check earlier to this error path really becomes
rarely exercised.
Uncovered by KASAN reported as use-after-free from nfnetlink_hook path
when dumping hooks.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: SCO: Fix use-after-free in sco_recv_frame() due to missing sock_hold
sco_recv_frame() reads conn-sk under sco_conn_lock() but immediately
releases the lock without holding a reference to the socket. A concurrent
close() can free the socket between the lock release and the subsequent
sk-sk_state access, resulting in a use-after-free.
Other functions in the same file (sco_sock_timeout(), sco_conn_del())
correctly use sco_sock_hold() to safely hold a reference under the lock.
Fix by using sco_sock_hold() to take a reference before releasing the
lock, and adding sock_put() on all exit paths.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: sched: act_csum: validate nested VLAN headers
tcf_csum_act() walks nested VLAN headers directly from skb-data when an
skb still carries in-payload VLAN tags. The current code reads
vlan-h_vlan_encapsulated_proto and then pulls VLAN_HLEN bytes without
first ensuring that the full VLAN header is present in the linear area.
If only part of an inner VLAN header is linearized, accessing
h_vlan_encapsulated_proto reads past the linear area, and the following
skb_pull(VLAN_HLEN) may violate skb invariants.
Fix this by requiring pskb_may_pull(skb, VLAN_HLEN) before accessing and
pulling each nested VLAN header. If the header still is not fully
available, drop the packet through the existing error path.

netfilter: ip6t_eui64: reject invalid MAC header for all packets
`eui64_mt6()` derives a modified EUI-64 from the Ethernet source address

The existing guard only rejects an invalid MAC header when
`par-fragoff != 0`. For packets with `par-fragoff == 0`, `eui64_mt6()`
can still reach `eth_hdr(skb)` even when the MAC header is not valid.
Fix this by removing the `par-fragoff != 0` condition so that packets
with an invalid MAC header are rejected before accessing `eth_hdr(skb)`.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: validate the whole DACL before rewriting it in cifsacl
build_sec_desc() and id_mode_to_cifs_acl() derive a DACL pointer from a
server-supplied dacloffset and then use the incoming ACL to rebuild the
chmod/chown security descriptor.
The original fix only checked that the struct smb_acl header fits before
reading dacl_ptr-size or dacl_ptr-num_aces. That avoids the immediate
header-field OOB read, but the rewrite helpers still walk ACEs based on
pdacl-num_aces with no structural validation of the incoming DACL body.
A malicious server can return a truncated DACL that still contains a
header, claims one or more ACEs, and then drive
replace_sids_and_copy_aces() or set_chmod_dacl() past the validated
extent while they compare or copy attacker-controlled ACEs.
Factor the DACL structural checks into validate_dacl(), extend them to
validate each ACE against the DACL bounds, and use the shared validator
before the chmod/chown rebuild paths. parse_dacl() reuses the same
validator so the read-side parser and write-side rewrite paths agree on
what constitutes a well-formed incoming DACL.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: SCO: fix race conditions in sco_sock_connect()
sco_sock_connect() checks sk_state and sk_type without holding

to use-after-free.
The buggy scenario involves three participants and was confirmed

Thread B revives a BT_CLOSED + SOCK_ZAPPED socket back to
BT_CONNECT. Subsequent cleanup triggers double sock_put() and
use-after-free. Meanwhile conn1 is leaked as it was orphaned
when sco_conn_del() cleared the association.
Fix this by:
- Moving lock_sock() before the sk_state/sk_type checks in
sco_sock_connect() to serialize concurrent connect attempts
- Fixing the sk_type != SOCK_SEQPACKET check to actually
return the error instead of just assigning it
- Adding a state re-check in sco_connect() after lock_sock()
to catch state changes during the window between the locks
- Adding sco_pi(sk)-conn check in sco_chan_add() to prevent
double-attach of a socket to multiple connections
- Adding hci_conn_drop() on sco_chan_add failure to prevent
HCI connection leaks

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack_helper: pass helper to expect cleanup
nf_conntrack_helper_unregister() calls nf_ct_expect_iterate_destroy()
to remove expectations belonging to the helper being unregistered.
However, it passes NULL instead of the helper pointer as the data
argument, so expect_iter_me() never matches any expectation and all
of them survive the cleanup.
After unregister returns, nfnl_cthelper_del() frees the helper
object immediately. Subsequent expectation dumps or packet-driven
init_conntrack() calls then dereference the freed exp-helper,
causing a use-after-free.
Pass the actual helper pointer so expectations referencing it are
properly destroyed before the helper object is freed.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: fix freemap adjustments when adding xattrs to leaf blocks
xfs/592 and xfs/794 both trip this assertion in the leaf block freemap
adjustment code after ~20 minutes of running on my test VMs:
ASSERT(ichdr-firstused = ichdr-count * sizeof(xfs_attr_leaf_entry_t)
+ xfs_attr3_leaf_hdr_size(leaf));
Upon enabling quite a lot more debugging code, I narrowed this down to
fsstress trying to set a local extended attribute with namelen=3 and
valuelen=71. This results in an entry size of 80 bytes.
At the start of xfs_attr3_leaf_add_work, the freemap looks like this:
i 0 base 448 size 0 rhs 448 count 46
i 1 base 388 size 132 rhs 448 count 46
i 2 base 2120 size 4 rhs 448 count 46
firstused = 520
where "rhs" is the first byte past the end of the leaf entry array.
This is inconsistent -- the entries array ends at byte 448, but
freemap[1] says there's free space starting at byte 388!
By the end of the function, the freemap is in worse shape:
i 0 base 456 size 0 rhs 456 count 47
i 1 base 388 size 52 rhs 456 count 47
i 2 base 2120 size 4 rhs 456 count 47
firstused = 440
Important note: 388 is not aligned with the entries array element size
of 8 bytes.
Based on the incorrect freemap, the name area starts at byte 440, which
is below the end of the entries array! That's why the assertion
triggers and the filesystem shuts down.
How did we end up here? First, recall from the previous patch that the
freemap array in an xattr leaf block is not intended to be a
comprehensive map of all free space in the leaf block. In other words,
it's perfectly legal to have a leaf block with:
* 376 bytes in use by the entries array
* freemap[0] has [base = 376, size = 8]
* freemap[1] has [base = 388, size = 1500]
* the space between 376 and 388 is free, but the freemap stopped
tracking that some time ago
If we add one xattr, the entries array grows to 384 bytes, and
freemap[0] becomes [base = 384, size = 0]. So far, so good. But if we
add a second xattr, the entries array grows to 392 bytes, and freemap[0]
gets pushed up to [base = 392, size = 0]. This is bad, because
freemap[1] hasn't been updated, and now the entries array and the free
space claim the same space.
The fix here is to adjust all freemap entries so that none of them
collide with the entries array. Note that this fix relies on commit
2a2b5932db6758 ("xfs: fix attr leaf header freemap.size underflow") and
the previous patch that resets zero length freemap entries to have
base = 0.

If the last byte of the option field is not EOL/NOP (0/1), the code attempts

out-of-bounds read, accessing memory past the optlen boundary
(either reading beyond the stack buffer _opt or the
following payload).

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/page_alloc: clear page-private in free_pages_prepare()
Several subsystems (slub, shmem, ttm, etc.) use page-private but don't
clear it before freeing pages. When these pages are later allocated as
high-order pages and split via split_page(), tail pages retain stale
page-private values.
This causes a use-after-free in the swap subsystem. The swap code uses
page-private to track swap count continuations, assuming freshly
allocated pages have page-private == 0. When stale values are present,
swap_count_continued() incorrectly assumes the continuation list is valid
and iterates over uninitialized page-lru containing LIST_POISON values,
causing a crash:

CVEID: CVE-2025-71113
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: af_alg - zero initialize memory allocated via sock_kmalloc
Several crypto user API contexts and requests allocated with
sock_kmalloc() were left uninitialized, relying on callers to
set fields explicitly. This resulted in the use of uninitialized
data in certain error paths or when new fields are added in the
future.
The ACVP patches also contain two user-space interface files:
algif_kpp.c and algif_akcipher.c. These too rely on proper
initialization of their context structures.
A particular issue has been observed with the newly added
'inflight' variable introduced in af_alg_ctx by commit:
67b164a871af ("crypto: af_alg - Disallow multiple in-flight AIO requests")
Because the context is not memset to zero after allocation,
the inflight variable has contained garbage values. As a result,
af_alg_alloc_areq() has incorrectly returned -EBUSY randomly when
the garbage value was interpreted as true:
https://github.com/gregkh/linux/blame/master/crypto/af_alg.c#L1209
The check directly tests ctx-inflight without explicitly
comparing against true/false. Since inflight is only ever set to
true or false later, an uninitialized value has triggered
-EBUSY failures. Zero-initializing memory allocated with
sock_kmalloc() ensures inflight and other fields start in a known
state, removing random issues caused by uninitialized data.

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

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm: Set old handle to NULL before prime swap in change_handle
There was a potential race condition in change_handle. The ioctl
briefly had a single object with two idr entries; a concurrent
gem_close could delete the object and remove one of the handles
while leaving the other one dangling, which could subsequently
be dereferenced for a use-after-free.
To fix this, do the same dance that gem_close itself does.
(f6cd7daecff5 drm: Release driver references to handle before making it available again)
First idr_replace the old handle to NULL. Later, if the prime
operations are successful, actually close it.
create_tail required a similar dance to avoid a similar problem.
(bd46cece51a3 drm/gem: Fix race in drm_gem_handle_create_tail())
It idr_allocs the new handle with NULL, then swaps in the correct
object later to avoid races. We don't need to do that here, since
the only operations that could race are drm_prime, and
change_handle holds the prime lock for the entire duration.

CVEID: CVE-2026-6473
DESCRIPTION: Integer wraparound in multiple PostgreSQL server features allows an unprivileged database user to cause the server to undersize an allocation and write out-of-bounds. This may execute arbitrary code as the operating system user running the database. In applications that pass gigabyte-scale user inputs to the relevant database functions, the application input provider may achieve a segmentation fault. Versions before PostgreSQL 18.4, 17.10, 16.14, 15.18, and 14.23 are affected.
CWE: CWE-190: Integer Overflow or Wraparound
CVSS Source: PostgreSQL
CVSS Base score: 8.8
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2026-6475
DESCRIPTION: Symlink following in PostgreSQL pg_basebackup plain format and in pg_rewind allows an origin superuser to overwrite local files, e.g. /var/lib/postgres/.bashrc, that hijack the operating system account. It will remain the case that starting the server after these commands implicitly trusts the origin superuser, due to features like shared_preload_libraries. Hence, the attack has practical implications only if one takes relevant action between these commands and server start, like moving the files to a different VM or snapshotting the VM. Versions before PostgreSQL 18.4, 17.10, 16.14, 15.18, and 14.23 are affected.

CVEID: CVE-2026-6478
DESCRIPTION: Covert timing channel in comparison of MD5-hashed password in PostgreSQL authentication allows an attacker to recover user credentials sufficient to authenticate. This does not affect scram-sha-256 passwords, the default in all supported releases. However, current databases may have MD5-hashed passwords originating in upgrades from PostgreSQL 13 or earlier. Versions before PostgreSQL 18.4, 17.10, 16.14, 15.18, and 14.23 are affected.

CVEID: CVE-2026-15588
DESCRIPTION: A denial-of-service and resource exhaustion vulnerability exists within the `GDBus` component of GLib. The `gdbusauth` authentication mechanism fails to enforce proper length limitations on data lines read from a client. An unauthenticated local or remote attacker can exploit this lack of input validation by sending excessively long streams of data, causing the application to consume massive amounts of system memory and CPU, potentially leading to a crash or system hang.

CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:L)
CVEID: CVE-2026-58010
DESCRIPTION: A flaw was found in GLib. An off-by-one error can occur in the gvs_tuple_is_normal function in the glib/gvariant-serialiser.c file when doing an alignment padding check because the bounds check uses instead of =, causing an out-of-bounds read of only 1 byte. This issue can cause a minor information disclosure of 1 byte and a denial of service when the out-of-bounds read crosses a page boundary.
CWE: CWE-126: Buffer Over-read
CVSS Source: NVD
CVSS Base score: 8.2
CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2026-58011
DESCRIPTION: A flaw was found in GLib. An out-of-bounds read of only 2 bytes can occur in the g_date_time_get_ymd function in the glib/gdatetime.c file when an invalid GDateTime object produced by the g_date_time_add_full function is processed. This flaw can corrupt the date output and potentially cause logic errors that may lead to a denial of service.
CWE: CWE-125: Out-of-bounds Read

CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2026-58012
DESCRIPTION: A flaw was found in GLib. A buffer over-read can occur in the g_regex_replace function when used with the `G_REGEX_RAW` compile flag and case-change replacement escapes because the string_append function processes matched substrings using UTF-8 functions that assume valid UTF-8 input, even when the string is treated as raw bytes. This vulnerability can cause a minor information disclosure of 1-5 bytes and a denial of service when the buffer over-read crosses a page boundary.

CVEID: CVE-2026-58013
DESCRIPTION: A flaw was found in GLib. A buffer over-read can occur in g_io_channel_read_line_backend() in the giochannel.c file when a custom line terminator with a length greater than one is set, causing memcmp to read past the GString buffer. This vulnerability can cause a minor information disclosure of 7 bytes or a denial of service when the buffer over-read crosses a page boundary.

CVEID: CVE-2026-58014
DESCRIPTION: A flaw was found in GLib. An off-by-one error can occur in the g_key_file_get_locale_string_list function in the gkeyfile.c file when loading a key file with an empty value. This flaw can cause an out-of-bounds access of 1 byte or a denial of service when the out-of-bounds access crosses a page boundary.

CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H)
CVEID: CVE-2026-58015
DESCRIPTION: A flaw was found in GLib. The D-Bus client-side implementation of the DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 SASL authentication mechanism does not validate the cookie_context parameter received from the server. A malicious D-Bus server can supply a cookie_context containing path traversal sequences, causing the client to read an arbitrary file and exfiltrate sensitive data by verifying guessed file contents against a generated hash.

CUSTOMERS ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF ANY ACTUAL OR POTENTIAL SECURITY VULNERABILITY. In addition to other efforts to address potential vulnerabilities, IBM periodically updates the record of components contained in our product offerings. As part of that effort, if IBM identifies previously unidentified packages in a product/service inventory, we address relevant vulnerabilities regardless of CVE date. Inclusion of an older CVEID does not demonstrate that the referenced product has been used by IBM since that date, nor that IBM was aware of a vulnerability as of that date. We are making clients aware of relevant vulnerabilities as we become aware of them. "Affected Products and Versions" referenced in IBM Security Bulletins are intended to be only products and versions that are supported by IBM and have not passed their end-of-support or warranty date. Thus, failure to reference unsupported or extended-support products and versions in this Security Bulletin does not constitute a determination by IBM that they are unaffected by the vulnerability. Reference to one or more unsupported versions in this Security Bulletin shall not create an obligation for IBM to provide fixes for any unsupported or extended-support products or versions.
