Vulnerability Details
CVEID: CVE-2025-68287
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: dwc3: Fix race condition between concurrent dwc3_remove_requests() call paths
This patch addresses a race condition caused by unsynchronized
execution of multiple call paths invoking `dwc3_remove_requests()`,
leading to premature freeing of USB requests and subsequent crashes.
Three distinct execution paths interact with `dwc3_remove_requests()`:
Path 1:
Triggered via `dwc3_gadget_reset_interrupt()` during USB reset
handling. The call stack includes:
- `dwc3_ep0_reset_state()`
- `dwc3_ep0_stall_and_restart()`
- `dwc3_ep0_out_start()`
- `dwc3_remove_requests()`
- `dwc3_gadget_del_and_unmap_request()`
Path 2:
Also initiated from `dwc3_gadget_reset_interrupt()`, but through
`dwc3_stop_active_transfers()`. The call stack includes:
- `dwc3_stop_active_transfers()`
- `dwc3_remove_requests()`
- `dwc3_gadget_del_and_unmap_request()`
Path 3:
Occurs independently during `adb root` execution, which triggers
USB function unbind and bind operations. The sequence includes:
- `gserial_disconnect()`
- `usb_ep_disable()`
- `dwc3_gadget_ep_disable()`
- `dwc3_remove_requests()` with `-ESHUTDOWN` status
Path 3 operates asynchronously and lacks synchronization with Paths
1 and 2. When Path 3 completes, it disables endpoints and frees 'out'
requests. If Paths 1 or 2 are still processing these requests,
accessing freed memory leads to a crash due to use-after-free conditions.
To fix this added check for request completion and skip processing
if already completed and added the request status for ep0 while queue.

CVEID: CVE-2025-68285
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: fix potential use-after-free in have_mon_and_osd_map()
The wait loop in __ceph_open_session() can race with the client
receiving a new monmap or osdmap shortly after the initial map is
received. Both ceph_monc_handle_map() and handle_one_map() install
a new map immediately after freeing the old one
kfree(monc-monmap);
monc-monmap = monmap;
ceph_osdmap_destroy(osdc-osdmap);
osdc-osdmap = newmap;
under client-monc.mutex and client-osdc.lock respectively, but
because neither is taken in have_mon_and_osd_map() it's possible for
client-monc.monmap-epoch and client-osdc.osdmap-epoch arms in
client-monc.monmap && client-monc.monmap-epoch &&
client-osdc.osdmap && client-osdc.osdmap-epoch;
condition to dereference an already freed map. This happens to be
reproducible with generic/395 and generic/397 with KASAN enabled:

Rewrite the wait loop to check the above condition directly with
client-monc.mutex and client-osdc.lock taken as appropriate. While
at it, improve the timeout handling (previously mount_timeout could be
exceeded in case wait_event_interruptible_timeout() slept more than
once) and access client-auth_err under client-monc.mutex to match
how it's set in finish_auth().
monmap_show() and osdmap_show() now take the respective lock before
accessing the map as well.

CVEID: CVE-2025-38703
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: Make dma-fences compliant with the safe access rules
Xe can free some of the data pointed to by the dma-fences it exports. Most
notably the timeline name can get freed if userspace closes the associated
submit queue. At the same time the fence could have been exported to a
third party (for example a sync_fence fd) which will then cause an use-
after-free on subsequent access.
To make this safe we need to make the driver compliant with the newly
documented dma-fence rules. Driver has to ensure a RCU grace period
between signalling a fence and freeing any data pointed to by said fence.
For the timeline name we simply make the queue be freed via kfree_rcu and
for the shared lock associated with multiple queues we add a RCU grace
period before freeing the per GT structure holding the lock.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_sock: Prevent race in socket write iter and sock bind
There is a potential race condition between sock bind and socket write
iter. bind may free the same cmd via mgmt_pending before write iter sends
the cmd, just as syzbot reported in UAF[1].
Here we use hci_dev_lock to synchronize the two, thereby avoiding the
UAF mentioned in [1].

CVEID: CVE-2025-68301
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: atlantic: fix fragment overflow handling in RX path
The atlantic driver can receive packets with more than MAX_SKB_FRAGS (17)
fragments when handling large multi-descriptor packets. This causes an
out-of-bounds write in skb_add_rx_frag_netmem() leading to kernel panic.
The issue occurs because the driver doesn't check the total number of
fragments before calling skb_add_rx_frag(). When a packet requires more
than MAX_SKB_FRAGS fragments, the fragment index exceeds the array bounds.
Fix by assuming there will be an extra frag if buff-len AQ_CFG_RX_HDR_SIZE,
then all fragments are accounted for. And reusing the existing check to
prevent the overflow earlier in the code path.
This crash occurred in production with an Aquantia AQC113 10G NIC.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: MGMT: Fix OOB access in parse_adv_monitor_pattern()
In the parse_adv_monitor_pattern() function, the value of
the 'length' variable is currently limited to HCI_MAX_EXT_AD_LENGTH(251).
The size of the 'value' array in the mgmt_adv_pattern structure is 31.
If the value of 'pattern[i].length' is set in the user space
and exceeds 31, the 'patterns[i].value' array can be accessed
out of bound when copied.
Increasing the size of the 'value' array in
the 'mgmt_adv_pattern' structure will break the userspace.
Considering this, and to avoid OOB access revert the limits for 'offset'
and 'length' back to the value of HCI_MAX_AD_LENGTH.

(linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: fix race condition in mptcp_schedule_work()
syzbot reported use-after-free in mptcp_schedule_work() [1]
Issue here is that mptcp_schedule_work() schedules a work,
then gets a refcount on sk-sk_refcnt if the work was scheduled.
This refcount will be released by mptcp_worker().
[A] if (schedule_work(...)) {
[B] sock_hold(sk);
return true;
}
Problem is that mptcp_worker() can run immediately and complete before [B]
We need instead :
sock_hold(sk);
if (schedule_work(...))
return true;
sock_put(sk);

refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.

CVEID: CVE-2025-40248
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock: Ignore signal/timeout on connect() if already established
During connect(), acting on a signal/timeout by disconnecting an already
established socket leads to several issues:
1. connect() invoking vsock_transport_cancel_pkt() -
virtio_transport_purge_skbs() may race with sendmsg() invoking
virtio_transport_get_credit(). This results in a permanently elevated
`vvs-bytes_unsent`. Which, in turn, confuses the SOCK_LINGER handling.
2. connect() resetting a connected socket's state may race with socket
being placed in a sockmap. A disconnected socket remaining in a sockmap
breaks sockmap's assumptions. And gives rise to WARNs.
3. connect() transitioning SS_CONNECTED - SS_UNCONNECTED allows for a
transport change/drop after TCP_ESTABLISHED. Which poses a problem for
any simultaneous sendmsg() or connect() and may result in a
use-after-free/null-ptr-deref.
Do not disconnect socket on signal/timeout. Keep the logic for unconnected
sockets: they don't linger, can't be placed in a sockmap, are rejected by
sendmsg().

CVEID: CVE-2025-38349
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
eventpoll: don't decrement ep refcount while still holding the ep mutex
Jann Horn points out that epoll is decrementing the ep refcount and then
doing a
mutex_unlock(&ep-mtx);
afterwards. That's very wrong, because it can lead to a use-after-free.
That pattern is actually fine for the very last reference, because the
code in question will delay the actual call to "ep_free(ep)" until after
it has unlocked the mutex.
But it's wrong for the much subtler "next to last" case when somebody
*else* may also be dropping their reference and free the ep while we're
still using the mutex.
Note that this is true even if that other user is also using the same ep
mutex: mutexes, unlike spinlocks, can not be used for object ownership,
even if they guarantee mutual exclusion.
A mutex "unlock" operation is not atomic, and as one user is still
accessing the mutex as part of unlocking it, another user can come in
and get the now released mutex and free the data structure while the
first user is still cleaning up.
See our mutex documentation in Documentation/locking/mutex-design.rst,
in particular the section [1] about semantics:
"mutex_unlock() may access the mutex structure even after it has
internally released the lock already - so it's not safe for
another context to acquire the mutex and assume that the
mutex_unlock() context is not using the structure anymore"
So if we drop our ep ref before the mutex unlock, but we weren't the
last one, we may then unlock the mutex, another user comes in, drops
_their_ reference and releases the 'ep' as it now has no users - all
while the mutex_unlock() is still accessing it.
Fix this by simply moving the ep refcount dropping to outside the mutex:
the refcount itself is atomic, and doesn't need mutex protection (that's
the whole _point_ of refcounts: unlike mutexes, they are inherently
about object lifetimes).

If dm_get_live_table() returned NULL, dm_put_live_table() was never
called. Also, it is possible that md-zone_revalidate_map will change
while calling this function. Only read it once, so that we are always
using the same value. Otherwise we might miss a call to
dm_put_live_table().
Finally, while md-zone_revalidate_map is set and a process is calling
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() to set up the zone append emulation
resources, it is possible that another process, perhaps triggered by
blkdev_report_zones_ioctl(), will call dm_blk_report_zones(). If
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() fails, these resources can be freed while
the other process is still using them, causing a use-after-free error.
blk_revalidate_disk_zones() will only ever be called when initially
setting up the zone append emulation resources, such as when setting up
a zoned dm-crypt table for the first time. Further table swaps will not
set md-zone_revalidate_map or call blk_revalidate_disk_zones().
However it must be called using the new table (referenced by
md-zone_revalidate_map) and the new queue limits while the DM device is
suspended. dm_blk_report_zones() needs some way to distinguish between a
call from blk_revalidate_disk_zones(), which must be allowed to use
md-zone_revalidate_map to access this not yet activated table, and all
other calls to dm_blk_report_zones(), which should not be allowed while
the device is suspended and cannot use md-zone_revalidate_map, since
the zone resources might be freed by the process currently calling
blk_revalidate_disk_zones().
Solve this by tracking the process that sets md-zone_revalidate_map in
dm_revalidate_zones() and only allowing that process to make use of it
in dm_blk_report_zones().

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: Add bounds checking in bit_putcs to fix vmalloc-out-of-bounds
Add bounds checking to prevent writes past framebuffer boundaries when
rendering text near screen edges. Return early if the Y position is off-screen
and clip image height to screen boundary. Break from the rendering loop if the
X position is off-screen. When clipping image width to fit the screen, update
the character count to match the clipped width to prevent buffer size
mismatches.
Without the character count update, bit_putcs_aligned and bit_putcs_unaligned
receive mismatched parameters where the buffer is allocated for the clipped
width but cnt reflects the original larger count, causing out-of-bounds writes.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/proc: fix uaf in proc_readdir_de()
Pde is erased from subdir rbtree through rb_erase(), but not set the node
to EMPTY, which may result in uaf access. We should use RB_CLEAR_NODE()
set the erased node to EMPTY, then pde_subdir_next() will return NULL to
avoid uaf access.
We found an uaf issue while using stress-ng testing, need to run testcase
getdent and tun in the same time. The steps of the issue is as follows:
1) use getdent to traverse dir /proc/pid/net/dev_snmp6/, and current
pde is tun3;
2) in the [time windows] unregister netdevice tun3 and tun2, and erase
them from rbtree. erase tun3 first, and then erase tun2. the
pde(tun2) will be released to slab;
3) continue to getdent process, then pde_subdir_next() will return
pde(tun2) which is released, it will case uaf access.

CVEID: CVE-2025-40269
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Fix potential overflow of PCM transfer buffer
The PCM stream data in USB-audio driver is transferred over USB URB
packet buffers, and each packet size is determined dynamically. The
packet sizes are limited by some factors such as wMaxPacketSize USB
descriptor. OTOH, in the current code, the actually used packet sizes
are determined only by the rate and the PPS, which may be bigger than
the size limit above. This results in a buffer overflow, as reported
by syzbot.
Basically when the limit is smaller than the calculated packet size,
it implies that something is wrong, most likely a weird USB
descriptor. So the best option would be just to return an error at
the parameter setup time before doing any further operations.
This patch introduces such a sanity check, and returns -EINVAL when
the packet size is greater than maxpacksize. The comparison with
ep-packsize[1] alone should suffice since it's always equal or
greater than ep-packsize[0].

CVEID: CVE-2025-37882
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: xhci: Fix isochronous Ring Underrun/Overrun event handling
The TRB pointer of these events points at enqueue at the time of error
occurrence on xHCI 1.1+ HCs or it's NULL on older ones. By the time we
are handling the event, a new TD may be queued at this ring position.
I can trigger this race by rising interrupt moderation to increase IRQ
handling delay. Similar delay may occur naturally due to system load.
If this ever happens after a Missed Service Error, missed TDs will be
skipped and the new TD processed as if it matched the event. It could
be given back prematurely, risking data loss or buffer UAF by the xHC.
Don't complete TDs on xrun events and don't warn if queued TDs don't
match the event's TRB pointer, which can be NULL or a link/no-op TRB.
Don't warn if there are no queued TDs at all.
Now that it's safe, also handle xrun events if the skip flag is clear.
This ensures completion of any TD stuck in 'error mid TD' state right
before the xrun event, which could happen if a driver submits a finite
number of URBs to a buggy HC and then an error occurs on the last TD.

CVEID: CVE-2025-38730
DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/net: commit partial buffers on retry
Ring provided buffers are potentially only valid within the single
execution context in which they were acquired. io_uring deals with this
and invalidates them on retry. But on the networking side, if
MSG_WAITALL is set, or if the socket is of the streaming type and too
little was processed, then it will hang on to the buffer rather than
recycle or commit it. This is problematic for two reasons:
1) If someone unregisters the provided buffer ring before a later retry,
then the req-buf_list will no longer be valid.
2) If multiple sockers are using the same buffer group, then multiple
receives can consume the same memory. This can cause data corruption
in the application, as either receive could land in the same
userspace buffer.
Fix this by disallowing partial retries from pinning a provided buffer
across multiple executions, if ring provided buffers are used.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tls: wait for pending async decryptions if tls_strp_msg_hold fails
Async decryption calls tls_strp_msg_hold to create a clone of the
input skb to hold references to the memory it uses. If we fail to
allocate that clone, proceeding with async decryption can lead to
various issues (UAF on the skb, writing into userspace memory after
the recv() call has returned).
In this case, wait for all pending decryption requests.

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: multitouch: fix slab out-of-bounds access in mt_report_fixup()
A malicious HID device can trigger a slab out-of-bounds during
mt_report_fixup() by passing in report descriptor smaller than
607 bytes. mt_report_fixup() attempts to patch byte offset 607
of the descriptor with 0x25 by first checking if byte offset
607 is 0x15 however it lacks bounds checks to verify if the
descriptor is big enough before conducting this check. Fix
this bug by ensuring the descriptor size is at least 608
bytes before accessing it.
Below is the KASAN splat after the out of bounds access happens:

DESCRIPTION: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: detect and prevent references to a freed transport in sendmsg
sctp_sendmsg() re-uses associations and transports when possible by
doing a lookup based on the socket endpoint and the message destination
address, and then sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc() sets the selected transport in
all the message chunks to be sent.
There's a possible race condition if another thread triggers the removal
of that selected transport, for instance, by explicitly unbinding an
address with setsockopt(SCTP_SOCKOPT_BINDX_REM), after the chunks have
been set up and before the message is sent. This can happen if the send
buffer is full, during the period when the sender thread temporarily
releases the socket lock in sctp_wait_for_sndbuf().
This causes the access to the transport data in
sctp_outq_select_transport(), when the association outqueue is flushed,
to result in a use-after-free read.
This change avoids this scenario by having sctp_transport_free() signal
the freeing of the transport, tagging it as "dead". In order to do this,
the patch restores the "dead" bit in struct sctp_transport, which was
removed in
commit 47faa1e4c50e ("sctp: remove the dead field of sctp_transport").
Then, in the scenario where the sender thread has released the socket
lock in sctp_wait_for_sndbuf(), the bit is checked again after
re-acquiring the socket lock to detect the deletion. This is done while
holding a reference to the transport to prevent it from being freed in
the process.
If the transport was deleted while the socket lock was relinquished,
sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc() will return -EAGAIN to let userspace retry the
send.
The bug was found by a private syzbot instance (see the error report [1]
and the C reproducer that triggers it [2]).

CVEID: CVE-2025-58436
DESCRIPTION: OpenPrinting CUPS is an open source printing system for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. Prior to version 2.4.15, a client that connects to cupsd but sends slow messages, e.g. only one byte per second, delays cupsd as a whole, such that it becomes unusable by other clients. This issue has been patched in version 2.4.15.

CVEID: CVE-2025-61915
DESCRIPTION: OpenPrinting CUPS is an open source printing system for Linux and other Unix-like operating systems. Prior to version 2.4.15, a user in the lpadmin group can use the cups web ui to change the config and insert a malicious line. Then the cupsd process which runs as root will parse the new config and cause an out-of-bound write. This issue has been patched in version 2.4.15.

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.
