In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
null_blk: free global tag_set on init error path
If shared_tags is enabled, null_setup_tagset() allocates the global tag_set
via null_init_global_tag_set(). If device creation later fails, err_dev
destroys the default devices and calls unregister_blkdev(), but never frees
the global tag_set. Since module init failed, null_exit() is never invoked,
so the global tag_set's tags and maps are permanently leaked.
Free the global tag_set in err_dev, matching null_exit() which does
if (tag_set.ops) blk_mq_free_tag_set(&tag_set).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
null_blk: free zones array on device power-off
null_init_zoned_dev() allocates dev->zones when a zoned device is powered
on, but null_del_dev() never frees it on power-off; dev->zones is only
freed later in null_free_dev(), when the configfs directory is removed. If
the device is powered off and then on again, null_init_zoned_dev()
allocates a new array and overwrites the dev->zones pointer, leaking the
previous allocation each power cycle.
Free dev->zones in null_del_dev() via null_free_zoned_dev() to solve it.
And calling null_free_zoned_dev() in null_free_dev() is no lo
null_blk: reject per-device queue resize for shared tag set
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
null_blk: reject per-device queue resize for shared tag set
When shared_tags is enabled, null_setup_tagset() makes the device use the
global tag_set, whose driver_data stays NULL. null_map_queues() therefore
falls back to the module-wide g_submit_queues/g_poll_queues instead of any
per-device value.
Resizing submit_queues or poll_queues via configfs on such a device calls
blk_mq_update_nr_hw_queues() on the shared set, shrinking
set->nr_hw_queues. __blk_mq_realloc_hw_ctxs() only grows the
q->queue_hw_ctx[] allocation, so on shrink it merely exits and NULLs the
now-excess
null_blk: serialize configfs attribute stores with the lock
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
null_blk: serialize configfs attribute stores with the lock
The NULLB_DEVICE_ATTR _store takes no lock: apply_fn attributes
(submit_queues, poll_queues) get dev->NAME written again after apply_fn
returns, outside its lock; APPLY=NULL attributes are entirely lockless.
configfs only serializes stores per-open-file, so concurrent stores on
separate fds race.
For apply_fn attributes, once one store's apply_fn has reconfigured the
hardware, a second (losing) store can still overwrite dev->NAME
afterwards. This leaves dev->submit_queues out of sync with the live
queue count, whi
null_blk: serialize configfs attribute updates with device setup
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
null_blk: serialize configfs attribute updates with device setup
The attribute store methods generated with NULLB_DEVICE_ATTR() refuse to
change the configuration of a live device by testing
NULLB_DEV_FL_CONFIGURED, but that flag is only set by
nullb_device_power_store() after null_add_dev() has returned, and the
store methods take no lock at all. configfs only serializes writes to
the same open file (buffer->mutex), so a write to any attribute can run
concurrently with null_add_dev() and change the device configuration
while it is being used.
null_add_dev() reads the conf
blk-iolatency: clear delay state when freeing policy data
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-iolatency: clear delay state when freeing policy data
io.latency can throttle a group which has no latency target of its own.
When a sibling misses its target, check_scale_change() scales down its
peers, and a peer that reaches queue depth one gets blkcg_use_delay()
called on it on every further scale-down, even with min_lat_nsec == 0.
iolatency_pd_offline() resets the target through
iolatency_set_min_lat_nsec(), which clears the delay only on a nonzero
to zero transition, so it never clears such a peer. Freeing the policy
data then leaves blkg->use_delay set and blkc
blk-iocost: clear delay state when freeing policy data
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-iocost: clear delay state when freeing policy data
iocg_kick_delay() turns sufficiently large debt into an explicit
block-cgroup delay with blkcg_set_delay(), setting blkg->use_delay to
-1 and incrementing blkcg->congestion_count. Clearing it again depends
on iocg_kick_delay() running from the period timer, the waitq timer or
the issue path.
ioc_pd_free() removes the iocg from active_iocgs and cancels its waitq
timer, and no further bios can arrive, so once it has run nothing is
left which can reduce the debt and clear the delay. The blkcg stays
marked congested for
ublk: avoid teardown retry loop on xarray allocation failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ublk: avoid teardown retry loop on xarray allocation failure
__ublk_shmem_remove_ranges() removes matching maple tree ranges in
batches, but first stores each range into a temporary xarray so that the
pages can be unpinned after dropping the maple tree lock.
That temporary xarray is filled under the maple tree lock with
xa_store(..., GFP_ATOMIC). If the store fails before mas_erase(), the
current range is left in the tree and the helper returns false. The
outer ublk_shmem_remove_ranges() loop then immediately retries the same
range. While the atomic allocation keeps failin
block: mtip32xx: synchronize ioctls with device removal
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: mtip32xx: synchronize ioctls with device removal
The ioctl handlers only test REMOVE_PENDING before entering
mtip_hw_ioctl(). Removal can set that bit immediately afterwards and free
dd->port in mtip_hw_exit() while an ioctl still dereferences it. An already
open block device can reach the handlers while del_gendisk() is in
progress.
Serialize both native and compat ioctls with removal. Set REMOVE_PENDING
before taking the mutex so new callers fail after an in-flight ioctl has
drained, and hold the mutex until the port has been torn down.
apparmor: fix deadlock in complain-mode change_hat
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
apparmor: fix deadlock in complain-mode change_hat
The use of change_hat when in complain mode can cause a deadlock
when the hat doesn't exist and a new learning profile is created
for the missing profile. This is because change_hat() has taken
the lock to search the hat list and creating the new learning
profile needs to take the lock to add it to the list.
From the bug report:
Originally found in 7.0.0 in LTS ubuntu 26.04 with pam_apparmor + su
in complain mode set to change hats. Then verified in newest
available vanilla kernel I've compiled to see if still present:
hwmon: (coretemp) Fix core_data leak on CPUs without PTS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (coretemp) Fix core_data leak on CPUs without PTS
pdata->core_data is allocated in init_temp_data() when the first core
temp_data of a package is created, but it is only released from
destroy_temp_data(), and only in the branch that handles the package
temp_data.
Package temp_data is created solely when the CPU supports
X86_FEATURE_PTS. On a CPU without it, coretemp_cpu_online() never calls
coretemp_add_core() with pkg_flag set, so pdata->pkg_data stays NULL.
coretemp_cpu_offline() then skips the removal of the package interface,
destroy_temp_data() is never called
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Check pointer type for all atomic RMW paths
Atomic RMW verification records an instruction pointer type only when the
current destination is PTR_TO_ARENA. A second path can therefore reach the
same instruction with an ordinary pointer without comparing it against the
saved arena type.
The post-verification fixup uses the saved type to rewrite the instruction
to BPF_PROBE_ATOMIC for every path. Record the actual destination type for
all atomic RMW paths so the existing mismatch check rejects incompatible
uses of one instruction.
ksmbd: Do not skip lock checks for single-byte ranges
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: Do not skip lock checks for single-byte ranges
check_lock_range() uses inclusive ranges. Its callers pass the end
offset as start + length - 1, so start == end represents a valid
single-byte range rather than an empty range.
The start == end shortcut therefore skips mandatory byte-range lock
checks for one-byte reads, writes, copychunk operations and one-byte
truncate ranges. A conflicting lock covering that byte is not checked
and the operation is allowed to proceed.
Remove the shortcut. The truncate size == inode->i_size case is already
handled by only calling ch
ksmbd: fix slab-out-of-bounds read in ksmbd_alloc_user()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix slab-out-of-bounds read in ksmbd_alloc_user()
ksmbd_alloc_user() copies resp->hash_sz bytes out of the mountd IPC
login response with
user->passkey_sz = resp->hash_sz;
user->passkey = kmalloc(resp->hash_sz, KSMBD_DEFAULT_GFP);
if (user->passkey)
memcpy(user->passkey, resp->hash, resp->hash_sz);
resp->hash_sz is a __u16 supplied by the response, but resp->hash[] is
only KSMBD_REQ_MAX_HASH_SZ bytes. A malformed or malicious login
response can set hash_sz well beyond that (up to 65535), so the memcpy()
reads past the end of the response object. ipc_validate
smb: smbdirect: free completion queues with ib_free_cq()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: smbdirect: free completion queues with ib_free_cq()
smbdirect_connection_destroy_qp() creates the send and receive completion
queues with ib_alloc_cq_any(), which for IB_POLL_WORKQUEUE arms an
internal completion handler that runs ib_cq_poll_work() on a workqueue.
Tearing those CQs down with ib_destroy_cq() frees them without first
cancelling that poll work.
If the provider posts a completion late -- for example Soft-RoCE (rxe)
posting an RNR error from rxe_receiver() after rdma_destroy_qp() -- the
handler re-queues ib_cq_poll_work() on the already-freed CQ, and a

smb: smbdirect: destroy QP before mem pools on accept failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: smbdirect: destroy QP before mem pools on accept failure
On the rdma_accept_failed error path of
smbdirect_accept_connect_request(), the receive io posted just above is
owned by the QP (recv_io is set to NULL after a successful post). The
error path fell through to smbdirect_connection_destroy_mem_pools()
before smbdirect_connection_destroy_qp(), so the mem pools and the
recv_io slab cache were destroyed while that recv_io was still
outstanding on the QP.
The drain in smbdirect_connection_destroy_qp() (ib_drain_qp()) is what
runs the recv completion that returns the
smb: smbdirect: release pending child sockets outside the handler lock
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: smbdirect: release pending child sockets outside the handler lock
smbdirect_socket_destroy() releases the listener's pending/ready child
sockets while still holding the listener's handler lock, the
&id_priv->handler_mutex taken via rdma_lock_handler(), not
sc->listen.lock, and before the listener's own rdma_destroy_id().
That ordering has one real consequence and one cosmetic one.
The real one: smbdirect_socket_release() drops the child's last
reference, which destroys the child's cm_id. Doing that before the
listener's rdma_destroy_id() lets _cma_cancel_listens(), r
ksmbd: validate ipc response length before dereferencing its fields
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: validate ipc response length before dereferencing its fields
ipc_validate_msg() computes the expected message size by reading length
fields out of the response buffer supplied by the userspace ksmbd daemon
(payload_sz, session_key_len, ngroups, ...). Those fields are read before
the buffer is verified to be large enough to contain the struct they belong
to, so a short response makes the read land past the end of the allocation.
handle_response() sizes entry->response purely from the netlink attribute
length (nla_len()) and only guards the leading handle read, so th
ksmbd: free preauth sessions on connection teardown
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: free preauth sessions on connection teardown
SMB3.1.1 multichannel binding preserves the preauthentication hash in a
preauth_session between the NTLM negotiate and authenticate requests.
The binding NTLM negotiate allocates this object and returns
STATUS_MORE_PROCESSING_REQUIRED. If the client disconnects before it sends
the authenticate request, neither the authenticate nor error cleanup paths
free the object.
Release any remaining preauthentication sessions when tearing down the
connection. Initialize the list when allocating the connection so that this
