| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: core: Fix pointer desynchronization in fb_io_read()
In fb_io_read(), if copy_to_user() performs a partial copy (e.g., due to
a faulty user buffer), the loop adjusts the chunk size 'c' and updates
the remaining 'count'. However, the hardware 'src' pointer has already
been eagerly advanced by the original chunk size.
If the loop is allowed to continue, the read will resume from an
incorrect, over-advanced offset. Since the remaining 'count' was only
decremented by the successful bytes, this desynchronization causes the
next iterations to execute more hardware reads than originally bounded,
eventually leading to out-of-bounds I/O reads.
Fix this by breaking out of the loop immediately upon a partial
copy_to_user(). A partial copy indicates a faulty user buffer, making
subsequent read attempts futile. Breaking out ensures we return the
number of successfully read bytes without risking out-of-bounds hardware
accesses in subsequent mismatched iterations. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: fix multiple unsafe decodes in decode_locker()
decode_locker() in cls_lock_client.c contains three unsafe decode
operations that allow a malicious or compromised OSD to trigger
slab-out-of-bounds reads:
1. ceph_decode_copy() at the locker_id_t name field has no preceding
bounds check. With p == end after ceph_start_decoding() accepts
struct_len=0, this reads sizeof(ceph_entity_name) = 9 bytes past
the validated buffer boundary.
2. *p += sizeof(struct ceph_timespec) after the locker_info_t header
is an unchecked pointer advance. A malicious OSD can position p
past end, causing all subsequent _safe checks to pass against a
bogus boundary.
3. len = ceph_decode_32(p) has no preceding bounds check, and the
immediately following *p += len is uncapped. A malicious OSD can
send len=0xffffffff, advancing p gigabytes past end and escaping
the decode window entirely.
Fix all three by replacing bare operations with their safe variants:
ceph_decode_copy -> ceph_decode_copy_safe
*p += sizeof(...) -> ceph_decode_skip_n
ceph_decode_32(p) -> ceph_decode_32_safe
*p += len -> ceph_decode_skip_n
A new label is added to return -EINVAL on any bounds violation.
-EINVAL is appropriate here: the data received from the OSD
is structurally malformed, which is an invalid argument to the decode
contract regardless of whether the caller or the wire is at fault.
Attacker model: a malicious or compromised OSD in a multi-tenant Ceph
deployment can trigger this against any kernel client that issues the
lock.get_info class method (e.g. during RBD exclusive lock acquisition)
without any further privileges beyond OSD session establishment.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: Avoid using invalid osd indices from primary_temp
A corrupted osdmap received from a Ceph monitor or OSD may contain osd
indices in its pg_temp, primary_temp, pg_upmap, and pg_upmap_items parts
that don't exist, i.e., that are greater than max_osd or smaller than
CEPH_HOMELESS_OSD (-1). These indices are used to create the up and
acting set in ceph_pg_to_up_acting_osds(), called from calc_target().
While most of these osd indices are checked, the one from primary_temp
is not. Subsequently, this may lead to calc_target() returning this
(potentially invalid) index as target osd for a (linger) request.
Because the osd_state, osd_weight, and osd_addr arrays only contain
max_osd entries (with indices 0 to max_osd -1), this leads to
out-of-bounds accesses when trying to read values from these arrays.
This patch fixes the issue by adding a check to get_temp_osds(), so that
only valid osd indices from primary_temp are used, and it falls back to
using the primary from pg_temp or the up set if it is invalid.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: fix OOB read in decode_watchers() via missing bounds check
ceph_start_decoding() validates that struct_len bytes remain in the
buffer after the encoding header, but accepts struct_len=0 as valid:
ceph_decode_need(p, end, 0, bad) always passes. When a malicious or
compromised OSD sends an obj_list_watch_response_t reply with
struct_len=0, ceph_start_decoding() returns success with p == end,
leaving zero bytes guaranteed for subsequent reads.
The immediately following ceph_decode_32(p) in decode_watchers() has
no preceding bounds check. With p == end this is a 4-byte read past
the validated buffer boundary. The garbage value is then passed
directly to kzalloc_objs() as the watcher count.
The sibling function decode_watcher() already uses the safe variants
(ceph_decode_copy_safe, ceph_decode_64_safe, ceph_decode_skip_32)
after its own ceph_start_decoding() call. decode_watchers() is the
only site that uses the bare variant, confirming an oversight.
Fix by replacing ceph_decode_32(p) with ceph_decode_32_safe(p, end,
*num_watchers, bad), consistent with the established pattern.
Attacker model: a malicious or compromised OSD in a multi-tenant Ceph
deployment (e.g. cloud) can trigger this against any kernel client
that calls CEPH_OSD_OP_LIST_WATCHERS, without any further privileges
beyond OSD session establishment.

s390/vfio_ccw: Ensure index for read/write regions are within range
The introduction of the capability chain rightly clamped the
region indexes to the range of the capabilities itself, but
neglected to do so for the existing read/write regions which
should also be enforced. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/vfio_ccw: Fix out of bounds check on CCW array
The routine ccwchain_calc_length() counts the number of channel
command words (CCWs) that are chained together in a single channel
program, and rejects anything larger than CCWCHAIN_LEN_MAX (256) CCWs.
The loop itself is "do..while (count < 257)", and while the logic in
is_cpa_within_range() correctly adjusts between the 0-index array of
CCWs and the count of CCWs starting at 1, this means it would look
at a possible 257th CCW before ending the loop and (correctly)
returning an error.
Fix this by restructuring the loop to break as soon as 256 CCWs
(thus indexes 0-255) are examined, without looking at memory
outside the range. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvlan: inherit needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from phy_dev
ipvlan devices inherit hard_header_len from phy_dev during ipvlan_init(),
but leave needed_headroom and needed_tailroom set to 0.
When the underlying phy_dev (or stacked lower device) requires extra headroom
or tailroom for headers/trailers (e.g. macsec, ipsec, wireguard, tunnels, or
veth with rx headroom), upper layers calculating packet headroom and tailroom
fail to reserve sufficient space.
This can result in reallocation overhead, skb headroom underflows, or KASAN
slab-use-after-free crashes when dev_hard_header() / ipvlan_hard_header()
prepends header data or when lower devices append tailroom.
Fix this by:
1. Inheriting needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from phy_dev in ipvlan_init().
2. Propagating needed_headroom and needed_tailroom updates to attached ipvlans
in ipvlan_device_event() when receiving NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE events. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xsk: require at least 16 bytes of TX metadata
AF_XDP accepts a TX metadata length as small as eight bytes, but every
supported request needs the flags plus at least one eight-byte request
field. Such short metadata also lets the kernel read beyond the registered
area.
Require 16 bytes rather than sizeof(struct xsk_tx_metadata) to preserve
compatibility with applications that do not use launch-time metadata. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xsk: validate launch-time metadata size
Launch-time metadata extends beyond the first 16 bytes of struct
xsk_tx_metadata. Reject the request when the registered metadata area does
not contain the complete field.
Snapshot the validated flags for the generic transmit path and use that
snapshot for request and completion processing, avoiding inconsistent
decisions if user space changes the flags concurrently.
Note that only xsk_skb_metadata is properly using the flags,
__xsk_buff_get_metadata ignores them. Next commits address that. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/openvswitch: check Ethernet header length in key_extract()
When a packet arrives on an ARPHRD_NONE device (e.g. TUN),
ovs_flow_key_extract() trusts the user-provided skb->protocol field: if
it is ETH_P_TEB, the packet is classified as MAC_PROTO_ETHERNET and
key_extract() is called without ensuring the skb has ETH_HLEN (14) bytes
of linear data. key_extract() unconditionally pulls 2 * ETH_ALEN bytes
for MAC addresses and parse_ethertype() pulls 2 more, either of which
triggers a kernel BUG in __skb_pull() when the linear area is too small.

net/atm: fix slab-out-of-bounds read in vcc_setsockopt()
vcc_setsockopt() contained an ineffective optlen check:
if (__SO_LEVEL_MATCH(optname, level) && optlen != __SO_SIZE(optname))
return -EINVAL;
If __SO_LEVEL_MATCH(optname, level) evaluated to false (e.g. if the caller
passed a mismatched level), the length check optlen != __SO_SIZE(optname)
was short-circuited and bypassed. Execution then fell through to switch(optname),
calling copy_from_sockptr() assuming optval contained sufficient space.
Furthermore, even if level matched, a cgroup BPF setsockopt filter could shrink
optlen after entry. Because copy_from_sockptr() on kernel pointers uses memcpy(),
this leads to a KASAN slab-out-of-bounds read when optlen is smaller than the
expected structure size.
Fix this by using copy_safe_from_sockptr(), which unconditionally validates
that optlen is at least the expected size before copying. Also change the local
'value' variable type from 'unsigned long' to 'int' so that SO_SETCLP matches
its sizeof(int) ABI encoding on 64-bit systems. |

staging: rtl8723bs: fix OOB read in rtw_get_wpa_ie()
rtw_get_wpa_ie() reads bytes at fixed offsets into a vendor-specific
information element without checking that the element is long enough,
causing an out-of-bounds read for a short trailing IE.
The function locates a vendor-specific IE (EID 221) with rtw_get_ie()
and then compares a 4-byte OUI+type at pbuf + 2 and reads a 2-byte
version word at pbuf + 6. Those accesses require the IE body to be at
least 6 bytes, but rtw_get_ie() only guarantees that the element fits
within the buffer; it does not enforce a minimum body length. A
vendor-specific IE whose length byte is 0 to 5, placed at the end of
the buffer, therefore makes these reads run past the end of the IE and
past the end of the buffer itself.
The buffer holds information elements taken from received management
frames and from the IE blob passed to rtw_cfg80211_set_wpa_ie(), which
is kmemdup'd to its exact length, so the read can run off the end of
the allocation.
The sibling helpers rtw_get_sec_ie(), rtw_get_wapi_ie() and
rtw_get_wps_ie() in this file already reject too-short vendor-specific
IEs before their OUI memcmp(); rtw_get_wpa_ie() was never brought in
line with them, and needs a minimum of 6 rather than 4 bytes because
of the version word. Add the missing length check. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: fix missing shared-key auth challenge length check
The WEP shared-key authentication handler uses the challenge-text
element's attacker-controlled length without checking it against the
fixed 128-byte chg_txt buffer.
In OnAuthClient() the length from rtw_get_ie() - up to 255 - is used
to perform memcpy() into the 128-byte pmlmeinfo->chg_txt, so a
malicious AP sending a malformed WLAN_EID_CHALLENGE element can
overflow/underfill chg_txt by up to 127 bytes. It is reachable over the
air, before association, during shared-key authentication. In the case
of an overflow, the driver can write out of bounds. In the case of an
underfill, the driver can echo stale buffer memory.
The challenge text is defined to be exactly 128 octets, which is
already provided as the WLAN_AUTH_CHALLENGE_LEN define; require the
element to be exactly that length before use. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: validate monitor transmit frame lengths
rtw_cfg80211_monitor_if_xmit_entry() removes the radiotap header and
then reads the 802.11 frame control field without checking that a base
802.11 header remains.
The data path also pulls the calculated 802.11, QoS and SNAP header
span before confirming that the skb contains it. A truncated frame can
therefore cause out-of-bounds reads or leave insufficient data for the
Ethernet address writes.
Reject frames that do not contain the base 802.11 header and data
frames that do not contain their complete calculated header span. |

ALSA: usx2y: bound the hwdep mmap fault offset
snd_us428ctls_vm_fault() turns the faulting page offset into a kernel
address with no bound of any kind:
offset = vmf->pgoff << PAGE_SHIFT;
vaddr = (char *)(...)->us428ctls_sharedmem + offset;
page = virt_to_page(vaddr);
get_page(page);
vmf->page = page;
return 0;
snd_us428ctls_mmap() checks only the length of the mapping, never the
offset, and us428ctls_sharedmem is a single page from
alloc_pages_exact(). For a character device file_mmap_size_max()
returns ULONG_MAX, so the mm layer imposes no ceiling either. Every page
offset above zero resolves to a struct page outside the object, and the
handler installs it into the caller's address space read-write; the vma
is not marked read-only.
The caller picks the page frame with a single mmap() argument and gets
read-write access to a page of kernel memory it does not own; an offset
that lands in an unpopulated vmemmap region oopses instead.
A process that can open the hwdep node of an attached US-X2Y reaches
this after loading the FPGA image through the same node; no capability
check is involved.
On 7.2.0-rc5 (arm64), mmap() with a large offset:

fbdev: bitblit: bound-check glyph index in bit_cursor()
bit_cursor() fetches the glyph under the cursor with
c = scr_readw(vc_pos);
src = vc_font.data + ((c & charmask) * w * height);
where charmask is 0x1ff when vc_hi_font_mask is set. The screen buffer
value comes directly from scr_readw() and may be larger than the current
font's glyph count.
Syzkaller triggers this via vcs_write(). The Call Trace shows
vcs_write() in vc_screen.c writing an arbitrary 16-bit value with
writev() to /dev/vcsa, which vcs_write_buf() in vc_screen.c stores via
vcs_scr_writew() without checking charcount. The stored value is later
read in bit_cursor() in bitblit.c.
When the font is changed from a font with 512 glyphs to a font with
256 glyphs, the screen buffer can retain characters with the high
bit set from the previous mode, which could also produce the same
out-of-bounds access.
BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in soft_cursor+0x378/0x6bc drivers/video/fbdev/core/softcursor.c:70

bit_putcs_aligned() and bit_putcs_unaligned() already clamp the glyph
index to vc_font.charcount. Apply the same clamp in bit_cursor() after
extracting the attribute and masking, before indexing fontdata.
The fix completes the bounds checking started in commit 18c4ef4e765a
("fbdev: bitblit: bound-check glyph index in bit_putcs*"), which missed
the cursor path.
This change should be safe because the clamp reuses the existing
contract from fbcon: charcount is maintained under console_lock in
con_font_set() and fbcon_font_set(), and hi_font_mask is cleared when
switching from 512 to 256 glyphs. When stale screen data with high bits
remains after a font switch, or when vcs_write() stores an arbitrary
value, clamping the index to 0 prevents the out-of-bounds read without
changing cursor semantics — the same fallback bit_putcs uses. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
veth: fix skb length accounting after XDP frag adjustment
veth exposes non-linear skb fragments through an xdp_buff. If an XDP
program adjusts the fragment area, veth_xdp_rcv_skb() copies
xdp_frags_size back to skb->data_len but leaves skb->len containing the
old fragment contribution.
After a fragment shrink, this makes skb_headlen() larger than the actual
linear area. In the reproduced UDP receive path, __skb_datagram_iter()
copied 1024 bytes past the actual linear tail to userspace, starting at
struct skb_shared_info. The copied bytes included the affected skb's
nr_frags, xdp_frags_size, and a kernel pointer from
skb_shinfo(skb)->frags[0]. Real packet data was displaced by the same
amount and truncated at the end.
Subtract the old data_len before replacing it and add the new data_len
afterwards, keeping skb->len and skb->data_len synchronized.
Additionally, bpf_xdp_pull_data() can advance data_end while leaving
frags present. The skb is then still non-linear, so the old
__skb_put(skb, off) triggers SKB_LINEAR_ASSERT().
Use skb_set_tail_pointer() and update skb->len explicitly instead,
following bpf_prog_run_generic_xdp(). Unlike __skb_put(),
skb_set_tail_pointer() does not require a linear skb.
A 60000-byte UDP datagram on a veth pair with MTU 64000 was shortened by
1024 bytes from its fragment area. Before the fix, all 10 runs produced
corrupted payloads. After the fix, all 10 runs matched the expected
payload exactly. A forced-tailroom reproducer also exercises
bpf_xdp_pull_data() with frags still present; the old code triggers
SKB_LINEAR_ASSERT(), while this fix passes 10/10 runs. |

ipv6: fix Route Information option length validation
rt6_route_rcv() validates the Route Information option (RFC 4191) length
against the prefix length, but both checks are off by one.
rinfo->length is the ND option length in units of 8 octets and it
*includes* the 8-byte option header, so an option carrying N bytes of
prefix has length == 1 + N/8. RFC 4191 section 2.3 requires length 3
when Prefix Length is greater than 64, and 2 or 3 when it is greater
than 0. The code accepts length >= 2 and length >= 1 respectively.
ipv6_addr_prefix() then copies prefix_len/8 bytes out of rinfo->prefix,
so a Router Advertisement with (prefix_len=128, length=2) or
(prefix_len=64, length=1) makes the kernel read up to 8 bytes past the
end of the option. Those bytes end up in the prefix of the route that
gets installed, so they are visible to userspace:
# RA with a Route Information option (prefix_len=128, length=2)
# followed by a source link-layer address option, 01 01 de ad be ef ca fe
$ ip -6 route show
2001:db8:dead:beef:101:dead:beef:cafe via fe80::1234 dev veth0 proto ra
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ the next option, read out of bounds
When the Route Information option is the last one in the packet, those
eight bytes come from the skb tail room instead.
Reject the option lengths RFC 4191 does not allow. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: algif_skcipher - force synchronous processing on trees without ctx->state
The AIO/async path in skcipher_recvmsg() passes the socket-wide ctx->iv
directly into the skcipher request. After io_submit() the socket lock is
dropped and the request is processed asynchronously, so a concurrent
sendmsg(ALG_SET_IV) can overwrite ctx->iv and make the in-flight request
run under an attacker-controlled IV. For CTR/stream modes this is
IV/keystream reuse and lets an unprivileged user recover the plaintext of
a concurrent operation.
Snapshotting ctx->iv into per-request storage for the async path is not
sufficient. For ciphers with statesize == 0 - which includes cbc and ctr -
the MSG_MORE inter-chunk IV chaining is carried solely by the in-place
req->iv writeback, which a snapshot redirects into per-request memory that
af_alg_free_resources() releases on completion, silently producing wrong
output. Writing the IV back from the completion callback instead is not
possible either: that would require lock_sock() there, but the callback can
run in softirq/atomic context, so it must not sleep.
Make the operation synchronous instead, which removes both the IV race and
any writeback race. This is equivalent to the upstream resolution, commit
fcc77d33a34c ("net: Remove support for AIO on sockets"), which removed the
AIO socket path across net/ entirely and so produces the same end state for
this file. This patch deviates from that commit deliberately: rather than
removing AIO socket support tree-wide, which would be far too invasive for
stable, it removes only the AIO branch in crypto/algif_skcipher.c.
io_submit() now completes synchronously; AF_ALG async is rarely used in
practice.
The -EIOCBQUEUED check in skcipher_recvmsg() is now dead but harmless,
and is left alone to keep the fix minimal.
Tested on 6.6.y: attacker IV injection dropped from 2296/200000 to 0/200000
after the change; MSG_MORE chunked CTR output bit-identical to single-shot. |
