In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: watchdog: fix refcount tracking races
Blamed commit converted the untracked dev_hold()/dev_put() calls
in the watchdog code to use the tracked dev_hold_track()/dev_put_track()
(which were later renamed/interfaced to netdev_hold() and netdev_put()).
By introducing dev->watchdog_dev_tracker to store the
reference tracking information without adding synchronization
between netdev_watchdog_up() and dev_watchdog(), it enabled the
race condition where this pointer could be overwritten or freed
concurrently, leading to the list corruption crash syzbot reported:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: wwan: t7xx: check skb_clone in control TX
t7xx_port_ctrl_tx() clones each skb fragment before passing it to the
port transmit path. The clone is used immediately to set cloned->len, so
an skb_clone() failure results in a NULL pointer dereference.
Check the clone before using it. If previous fragments were already
queued, preserve the driver's existing partial-write behavior by
returning the number of bytes submitted so far.
kcm: use WRITE_ONCE() when changing lower socket callbacks
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kcm: use WRITE_ONCE() when changing lower socket callbacks
kcm_attach() replaces a live lower TCP socket's sk_data_ready and
sk_write_space callbacks with KCM handlers, and kcm_unattach() restores
them later. Those callback-pointer updates are still plain stores even
though the same fields can be read and invoked concurrently on other
CPUs.
If another CPU observes an older callback snapshot after the live field
has already been restored, callback execution can run with a mismatched
target and sk_user_data state, leading to stale or misdirected wakeups.
Use WRITE_ONCE() fo
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: seq: avoid stale FIFO cells during resize
snd_seq_fifo_resize() still needs to publish the replacement pool
before it waits for FIFO users. A blocking snd_seq_read() holds
f->use_lock while it sleeps, so concurrent senders must be able to
queue to the new pool and wake that reader instead of failing against a
closing old pool.
However, snd_seq_fifo_event_in() duplicates an event before it takes
f->lock, and snd_seq_read() can dequeue a cell and later call
snd_seq_fifo_cell_putback() if copy_to_user() or
snd_seq_expand_var_event() fails. If resize swaps f->pool and de

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Guard __get_user acesss with access_ok for uprobe_multi data
As reported by sashiko [1] we need to use access_ok to check the user
space data bounds before we use __get-user to get it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sockmap: Fix use-after-free in udp_bpf_recvmsg()
syzbot reported use-after-free of struct sk_msg in sk_msg_recvmsg(). [0]
sk_msg_recvmsg() peeks sk_msg from psock->ingress_msg under a lock,
but its processing is lockless.
Thus, sk_msg_recvmsg() must be serialised by callers, otherwise
multiple threads could touch the same sk_msg.
For example, TCP uses lock_sock(), and AF_UNIX uses unix_sk(sk)->iolock.
Initially, udp_bpf_recvmsg() had used lock_sock(), but the cited
commit removed it.
Let's serialise sk_msg_recvmsg() with lock_sock() in udp_bpf_recvmsg().
Note that hol

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: fix UAF in tipc_l2_send_msg()
Syzbot reported a slab-use-after-free in ipvlan_hard_header() when
called from tipc_l2_send_msg().
The root cause is that tipc_disable_l2_media() calls synchronize_net()
while b->media_ptr is still valid. This allows concurrent RCU readers
to obtain the device pointer after synchronize_net() has finished.
The pointer is cleared later in bearer_disable(), but without any
subsequent synchronization, allowing the device to be freed while
still in use by readers.
Fix this by clearing b->media_ptr in tipc_disable_l2_media() before
calling sy
tcp: ipv6: clamp default adverting MSS to avoid GSO_BY_FRAGS (0xFFFF)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: ipv6: clamp default adverting MSS to avoid GSO_BY_FRAGS (0xFFFF)
When MTU is large, ip6_default_advmss() can return IPV6_MAXPLEN (65535).
This is interpreted by TCP as mss_clamp, allowing the MSS to reach 65535.
However, 0xFFFF is also used as a magic value GSO_BY_FRAGS in the kernel.
If a TCP packet with gso_size=0xFFFF is passed to skb_segment(), it will
be mistakenly treated as GSO_BY_FRAGS, leading to a NULL pointer
dereference because local TCP packets do not use frag_list.
Fix this by returning min(IPV6_MAXPLEN, GSO_BY_FRAGS - 1) (65534) from
ip6_default_advmss
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bnxt_re: Initialize dpi variable to zero
dpi is initialized only for BNXT_RE_ALLOC_WC_PAGE, but copied
for all the cases. So initialize the dpi to 0.
RDMA/bnxt_re: Free SRQ toggle page after firmware teardown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bnxt_re: Free SRQ toggle page after firmware teardown
Free the toggle page only after firmware teardown completes so that
an NQ interrupt arriving during bnxt_qplib_destroy_srq() won't write
the toggle values to an already-freed page. Move free_page() after
bnxt_qplib_destroy_srq().
RDMA/bnxt_re: Free CQ toggle page after firmware teardown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bnxt_re: Free CQ toggle page after firmware teardown
Free the toggle page only after firmware teardown completes so that
an NQ interrupt arriving during bnxt_qplib_destroy_cq() won't write
the toggle value to an already-freed page. Move free_page() after
bnxt_qplib_destroy_cq.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bnxt_re: Add a max slot check for SQ
The variable WQE mode must be validated against
the maximum slots supported by HW. The max supported
value is 64K. Adding a max and min check and fail if user
supplied value is more than the max supported and zero.
RDMA/bnxt_re: Proper rollback if the ioremap fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bnxt_re: Proper rollback if the ioremap fails
bnxt_qplib_alloc_dpi returns success even if ioremap fails.
Add the proper rollback when the ioremap fails and return
-ENOMEM status.
RDMA/bnxt_re: Avoid repeated requests to allocate WC pages
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bnxt_re: Avoid repeated requests to allocate WC pages
Applications can request multiple WC pages for the same ucontext.
As of now, only 1 WC page per ucontext is supported. Add a lock to
avoid concurrent access and a check to fail repeated requests.
Also, if the mmap entry insert fails for the WC, free the Doorbell
page index mapped for the WC page.
RDMA/irdma: Replace waitqueue and flag with completion
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/irdma: Replace waitqueue and flag with completion
The driver previously used a waitqueue along with an explicit
request_done flag, but without proper barriers around request_done.
An earlier patch by Gui-Dong Han <hanguidong02@gmail.com> attempted
to fix this by adding the missing memory barriers. Rather than
adding the barriers, this patch replaces the waitqueue+flag with
a completion, which is designed for this exact purpose.
net: serialize netif_running() check in enqueue_to_backlog()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: serialize netif_running() check in enqueue_to_backlog()
Syzbot reported a KASAN slab-use-after-free in fib_rules_lookup().
The root cause is a race condition where packets can escape the backlog
flushing during device unregistration (e.g., during netns exit).
Commit e9e4dd3267d0 ("net: do not process device backlog during unregistration")
introduced a lockless netif_running() check in enqueue_to_backlog() to
prevent queuing packets to an unregistering device.
However, this creates a TOCTOU race window.
A lockless transmitter (like veth_xmit) can pass
the check befo
ksmbd: fix use-after-free in same_client_has_lease()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix use-after-free in same_client_has_lease()
same_client_has_lease() returns an opinfo pointer from ci->m_op_list
after dropping ci->m_lock without taking a reference.
smb_grant_oplock() then dereferences that pointer in copy_lease() and
when checking breaking_cnt. A concurrent close can remove the old lease
from ci->m_op_list and drop the last reference before the caller uses
the returned pointer, leading to a use-after-free.
Take a reference when same_client_has_lease() selects an existing lease,
drop any previous match while scanning, and release the returned

net/9p: fix race condition on rdma->state in trans_rdma.c
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/9p: fix race condition on rdma->state in trans_rdma.c
The rdma->state field is modified without holding req_lock in both
recv_done() and p9_cm_event_handler(), while rdma_request() accesses
the same field under the req_lock spinlock. This inconsistent locking
creates a race condition:
- recv_done() running in softirq completion context sets
rdma->state = P9_RDMA_FLUSHING without acquiring req_lock
- p9_cm_event_handler() modifies rdma->state at multiple points
(ADDR_RESOLVED, ROUTE_RESOLVED, ESTABLISHED, CLOSED) without
req_lock
- rdma_request() uses spin_lock_
staging: nvec: fix use-after-free in nvec_rx_completed()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: nvec: fix use-after-free in nvec_rx_completed()
In nvec_rx_completed(), when an incomplete RX transfer is detected,
nvec_msg_free() is called to return the message back to the pool by
clearing its 'used' atomic flag. Immediately after this, the code
accesses nvec->rx->data[0] to check the message type.
Since nvec_msg_free() marks the pool slot as available via atomic_set(),
any concurrent or subsequent call to nvec_msg_alloc() could claim that
same slot and overwrite its data[] array. Reading nvec->rx->data[0] after
freeing the message is therefore a use-after-fre
