| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: kaweth: validate USB endpoints
The kaweth driver should validate that the device it is probing has the
proper number and types of USB endpoints it is expecting before it binds
to it. If a malicious device were to not have the same urbs the driver
will crash later on when it blindly accesses these endpoints. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: fix Content-Length u32 truncation in sip_help_tcp()
sip_help_tcp() parses the SIP Content-Length header with
simple_strtoul(), which returns unsigned long, but stores the result in
unsigned int clen. On 64-bit systems, values exceeding UINT_MAX are
silently truncated before computing the SIP message boundary.
For example, Content-Length 4294967328 (2^32 + 32) is truncated to 32,
causing the parser to miscalculate where the current message ends. The
loop then treats trailing data in the TCP segment as a second SIP
message and processes it through the SDP parser.
Fix this by changing clen to unsigned long to match the return type of
simple_strtoul(), and reject Content-Length values that exceed the
remaining TCP payload length. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: Avoid boot crash in RedBoot partition table parser
Given CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y and a recent compiler,
commit 439a1bcac648 ("fortify: Use __builtin_dynamic_object_size() when
available") produces the warning below and an oops.
Searching for RedBoot partition table in 50000000.flash at offset 0x7e0000

WARNING: lib/string_helpers.c:1035 at 0xc029e04c, CPU#0: swapper/0/1
memcmp: detected buffer overflow: 15 byte read of buffer size 14
Modules linked in:
CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.19.0 #1 NONE
As Kees said, "'names' is pointing to the final 'namelen' many bytes
of the allocation ... 'namelen' could be basically any length at all.
This fortify warning looks legit to me -- this code used to be reading
beyond the end of the allocation."
Since the size of the dynamic allocation is calculated with strlen()
we can use strcmp() instead of memcmp() and remain within bounds. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix krb5 mount with username option
Customer reported that some of their krb5 mounts were failing against
a single server as the client was trying to mount the shares with
wrong credentials. It turned out the client was reusing SMB session
from first mount to try mounting the other shares, even though a
different username= option had been specified to the other mounts.
By using username mount option along with sec=krb5 to search for
principals from keytab is supported by cifs.upcall(8) since
cifs-utils-4.8. So fix this by matching username mount option in
match_session() even with Kerberos.
For example, the second mount below should fail with -ENOKEY as there
is no 'foobar' principal in keytab (/etc/krb5.keytab). The client
ends up reusing SMB session from first mount to perform the second
one, which is wrong.
```
$ ktutil
ktutil: add_entry -password -p testuser -k 1 -e aes256-cts
Password for testuser@ZELDA.TEST:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: ->d_compare() must not block
... so don't use __getname() there. Switch it (and ntfs_d_hash(), while
we are at it) to kmalloc(PATH_MAX, GFP_NOWAIT). Yes, ntfs_d_hash()
almost certainly can do with smaller allocations, but let ntfs folks
deal with that - keep the allocation size as-is for now.
Stop abusing names_cachep in ntfs, period - various uses of that thing
in there have nothing to do with pathnames; just use k[mz]alloc() and
be done with that. For now let's keep sizes as-in, but AFAICS none of
the users actually want PATH_MAX. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_ct: drop pending enqueued packets on removal
Packets sitting in nfqueue might hold a reference to:
- templates that specify the conntrack zone, because a percpu area is
used and module removal is possible.
- conntrack timeout policies and helper, where object removal leave
a stale reference.
Since these objects can just go away, drop enqueued packets to avoid
stale reference to them.
If there is a need for finer grain removal, this logic can be revisited
to make selective packet drop upon dependencies. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: Reset prog ptr to old_prog in case of error in mtk_xdp_setup()
Reset eBPF program pointer to old_prog and do not decrease its ref-count
if mtk_open routine in mtk_xdp_setup() fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: act_gate: snapshot parameters with RCU on replace
The gate action can be replaced while the hrtimer callback or dump path is
walking the schedule list.
Convert the parameters to an RCU-protected snapshot and swap updates under
tcf_lock, freeing the previous snapshot via call_rcu(). When REPLACE omits
the entry list, preserve the existing schedule so the effective state is
unchanged. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: x_tables: guard option walkers against 1-byte tail reads
When the last byte of options is a non-single-byte option kind, walkers
that advance with i += op[i + 1] ? : 1 can read op[i + 1] past the end
of the option area.
Add an explicit i == optlen - 1 check before dereferencing op[i + 1]
in xt_tcpudp and xt_dccp option walkers. |

net/mlx5e: Fix DMA FIFO desync on error CQE SQ recovery
In case of a TX error CQE, a recovery flow is triggered,
mlx5e_reset_txqsq_cc_pc() resets dma_fifo_cc to 0 but not dma_fifo_pc,
desyncing the DMA FIFO producer and consumer.
After recovery, the producer pushes new DMA entries at the old
dma_fifo_pc, while the consumer reads from position 0.
This causes us to unmap stale DMA addresses from before the recovery.
The DMA FIFO is a purely software construct with no HW counterpart.
At the point of reset, all WQEs have been flushed so dma_fifo_cc is
already equal to dma_fifo_pc. There is no need to reset either counter,
similar to how skb_fifo pc/cc are untouched.
Remove the 'dma_fifo_cc = 0' reset.
This fixes the following WARNING:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xprtrdma: Decrement re_receiving on the early exit paths
In the event that rpcrdma_post_recvs() fails to create a work request
(due to memory allocation failure, say) or otherwise exits early, we
should decrement ep->re_receiving before returning. Otherwise we will
hang in rpcrdma_xprt_drain() as re_receiving will never reach zero and
the completion will never be triggered.
On a system with high memory pressure, this can appear as the following
hung task:
INFO: task kworker/u385:17:8393 blocked for more than 122 seconds.
Tainted: G S E 6.19.0 #3
"echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs" disables this message.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
audit: add missing syscalls to read class
The "at" variant of getxattr() and listxattr() are missing from the
audit read class. Calling getxattrat() or listxattrat() on a file to
read its extended attributes will bypass audit rules such as:
-w /tmp/test -p rwa -k test_rwa
The current patch adds missing syscalls to the audit read class. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
audit: add fchmodat2() to change attributes class
fchmodat2(), introduced in version 6.6 is currently not in the change
attribute class of audit. Calling fchmodat2() to change a file
attribute in the same fashion than chmod() or fchmodat() will bypass
audit rules such as:
-w /tmp/test -p rwa -k test_rwa
The current patch adds fchmodat2() to the change attributes class. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: image: mdc800: kill download URB on timeout
mdc800_device_read() submits download_urb and waits for completion.
If the timeout fires and the device has not responded, the function
returns without killing the URB, leaving it active.
A subsequent read() resubmits the same URB while it is still
in-flight, triggering the WARN in usb_submit_urb():
"URB submitted while active"
Check the return value of wait_event_timeout() and kill the URB if
it indicates timeout, ensuring the URB is complete before its status
is inspected or the URB is resubmitted.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: chemical: sps30_i2c: fix buffer size in sps30_i2c_read_meas()
sizeof(num) evaluates to sizeof(size_t) (8 bytes on 64-bit) instead
of the intended __be32 element size (4 bytes). Use sizeof(*meas) to
correctly match the buffer element type. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: core: Limit the length of unkillable synchronous timeouts
The usb_control_msg(), usb_bulk_msg(), and usb_interrupt_msg() APIs in
usbcore allow unlimited timeout durations. And since they use
uninterruptible waits, this leaves open the possibility of hanging a
task for an indefinitely long time, with no way to kill it short of
unplugging the target device.
To prevent this sort of problem, enforce a maximum limit on the length
of these unkillable timeouts. The limit chosen here, somewhat
arbitrarily, is 60 seconds. On many systems (although not all) this
is short enough to avoid triggering the kernel's hung-task detector.
In addition, clear up the ambiguity of negative timeout values by
treating them the same as 0, i.e., using the maximum allowed timeout. |
