| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: iowarrior: fix use-after-free on disconnect race
mutex_unlock() may access the mutex structure after releasing the lock
and therefore cannot be used to manage lifetime of objects directly
(unlike spinlocks and refcounts). [1][2]
Use a kref to release the driver data to avoid use-after-free in
mutex_unlock() when release() races with disconnect().

[2] 2b9d9e0a9ba0 ("locking/mutex: Clarify that mutex_unlock(), and most
other sleeping locks, can still use the lock object
after it's unlocked") |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: qat - protect service table iterations with service_lock
The service_table list is protected by service_lock when entries are
added or removed (in adf_service_add() and adf_service_remove()), but
several functions iterate over the list without holding this lock.
A concurrent adf_service_register() or adf_service_unregister() call
could modify the list during traversal, leading to list corruption or
a use-after-free.
Fix this by holding service_lock across all list_for_each_entry()
iterations of service_table in adf_dev_init(), adf_dev_start(),
adf_dev_stop(), adf_dev_shutdown(), adf_dev_restarting_notify(),
adf_dev_restarted_notify(), and adf_error_notifier().
The lock ordering is safe: callers of the static helpers (adf_dev_up()
and adf_dev_down()) acquire state_lock before service_lock, and no
event_hld callback or service_lock holder ever acquires state_lock in
the reverse order. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: protect tc_count increment in smb2_find_smb_sess_tcon_unlocked()
Commit 96c4af418586 ("cifs: Fix locking usage for tcon fields")
refactored cifs code to change cifs_tcp_ses_lock for tc_lock around
tc_count changes.
There was missing lock around tc_count increment inside
smb2_find_smb_sess_tcon_unlocked(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ebtables: move to two-stage removal scheme
Like previous patches for x_tables, follow same pattern in ebtables.
We can't reuse xt helpers: ebt_table struct layout is incompatible.
table->ops assignment is now done while still holding the ebt mutex
to make sure we never expose partially-filled table struct. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-mq: pop cached request if it is usable
When submitting a bio to blk-mq, if the task should sleep after peeking
a cached request, but before it pops it, the plug flushes and calls
blk_mq_free_plug_rqs, freeing the cached_rqs. This creates a
use-after-free bug. Fix this by popping the cached request before any
possible blocking calls if it is suitable for use.
Popping this request first holds a queue reference, so avoid any
serialization races with queue freezes and can safely proceed with
dispatching that request to the driver. This potentially increases a
timing window from when a driver wants to freeze its queue to when
requests stop being dispatched. That scenario is off the fast path
though, and drivers need to appropriately handle requests during a
freeze request anyway.
The downside is the popped element needs to be individually freed when
we performed a bio plug merge. The cached request would have had to be
freed later anyway, but this patch does it inline with building the plug
list instead of after flushing it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: omap2: fix use-after-free in omapfb_mmap
omapfb_mmap() has a race condition with OMAPFB_SETUP_PLANE ioctl that
can lead to use-after-free:
The fb_mmap() entry point holds mm_lock but not lock (fb_info->lock),
while ioctl handlers like OMAPFB_SETUP_PLANE hold lock but not mm_lock.
This allows concurrent execution.
In omapfb_mmap():
1. rg = omapfb_get_mem_region(ofbi->region); // Get old region ref
2. start = omapfb_get_region_paddr(ofbi); // Read from NEW region
3. len = fix->smem_len; // Read from NEW region
4. vm_iomap_memory(vma, start, len); // Map NEW region memory
5. atomic_inc(&rg->map_count); // Increment OLD region!
Concurrently, OMAPFB_SETUP_PLANE can:
- Reassign ofbi->region = new_rg
- Update fix->smem_len
- OMAPFB_SETUP_MEM then checks NEW region's map_count (0!) and frees it
This leaves userspace with a mapping to freed physical memory.
The fix is to read all required values (start, len) from the same
region reference (rg) that will have its map_count incremented,
preventing the region from being freed while still mapped. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: fix use-after-free on sbi->sync_decompress
z_erofs_decompress_kickoff() can race with filesystem unmount, causing
a use-after-free on sbi->sync_decompress.
When I/O completes, z_erofs_endio() calls z_erofs_decompress_kickoff()
to queue z_erofs_decompressqueue_work() asynchronously. Then, after all
folios are unlocked, unmount workflow can proceed and sbi will be freed
before accessing to sbi->sync_decompress.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
l2tp: pppol2tp: hold reference to session in pppol2tp_ioctl()
pppol2tp_ioctl() read sock->sk->sk_user_data directly without any
locks or reference counting. If a controllable sleep was induced during
copy_from_user() (e.g. via a userfaultfd page fault sleep), a concurrent
socket close could trigger pppol2tp_session_close() asynchronously. This
frees the l2tp_session structure via the l2tp_session_del_work workqueue.
Upon resuming, the ioctl thread dereferences the stale session pointer,
resulting in a Use-After-Free (UAF).
Fix this by securely fetching the session reference using the RCU-safe,
refcounted helper pppol2tp_sock_to_session(sk) on entry. This locks the
session's refcount across the sleep. We structured the function to exit
via standard err breaks, guaranteeing that l2tp_session_put() is cleanly
called on all return paths to drop the reference.
To preserve existing behavior we validate the session and its magic
signature only for the specific L2TP commands that require it. This
ensures that generic/unknown ioctls called on an unconnected socket
still return -ENOIOCTLCMD and correctly fall back to generic handlers
(e.g. in sock_do_ioctl()). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: phy: clean the sfp upstream if phy probing fails
Sashiko reported that we don't call sfp_bus_del_upstream() in the probe
failure path, so let's add it, otherwise the sfp-bus is left with a
dangling 'upstream' field, that may be used later on during SFP events.
This issue existed before the generic phylib sfp support, back when
drivers were calling phy_sfp_probe themselves. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/mbcache: cancel shrink work before destroying the cache
mb_cache_destroy() calls shrinker_free() and then frees all cache
entries and the cache itself, but it does not cancel the pending
c_shrink_work work item first.
If mb_cache_entry_create() schedules c_shrink_work via schedule_work()
and the work item is still pending or running when mb_cache_destroy()
runs, mb_cache_shrink_worker() will access the cache after its memory
has been freed, causing a use-after-free.
This is only reachable by a privileged user (root or CAP_SYS_ADMIN)
who can trigger the last put of a mounted ext2/ext4/ocfs2 filesystem.
Cancel the work item with cancel_work_sync() before calling
shrinker_free(), ensuring the worker has finished and will not be
rescheduled before the cache is torn down. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
greybus: raw: fix use-after-free on cdev close
This addresses a use-after-free bug when a raw bundle is disconnected
but its chardev is still opened by an application. When the application
releases the cdev, it causes the following panic when init on free is
enabled (CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON=y):
refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 139 at lib/refcount.c:28 refcount_warn_saturate+0xd0/0x130

entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f
The cdev is contained in the "gb_raw" structure, which is freed in the
disconnect operation. When the cdev is released at a later time,
cdev_put gets an address that points to freed memory.
To fix this use-after-free, convert the struct device from a pointer to
being embedded, that makes the lifetime of the cdev and of this device
the same. Then, use cdev_device_add, which guarantees that the device
won't be released until all references to the cdev have been released.
Finally, delegate the freeing of the structure to the device release
function, instead of freeing immediately in the disconnect callback. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
greybus: raw: fix use-after-free if write is called after disconnect
If a user writes to the chardev after disconnect has been called, the
kernel panics with the following trace (with
CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON=y):
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000218

Disconnect calls gb_connection_destroy, which ends up freeing the
connection object. When gb_operation_sync is called in the write file
operations, its gets a freed connection as parameter and the kernel
panics.
The gb_connection_destroy cannot be moved out of the disconnect
function, as the Greybus subsystem expect all connections belonging to a
bundle to be destroyed when disconnect returns.
To prevent this bug, use a rw lock to synchronize access between write
and disconnect. This guarantees that the write function doesn't try
to use a disconnected connection. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: fix double-free of tx_buf skb
If ice_tso() or ice_tx_csum() fail, the error path in
ice_xmit_frame_ring() frees the skb, but the 'first' tx_buf still points
to it and is marked as valid (ICE_TX_BUF_SKB).
'next_to_use' remains unchanged, so the potential problem will
likely fix itself when the next packet is transmitted and the tx_buf
gets overwritten. But if there is no next packet and the interface is
brought down instead, ice_clean_tx_ring() -> ice_unmap_and_free_tx_buf()
will find the tx_buf and free the skb for the second time.
The fix is to reset the tx_buf type to ICE_TX_BUF_EMPTY in the error
path, so that ice_unmap_and_free_tx_buf().
Move the initialization of 'first' up, to ensure it's already valid in
case we hit the linearization error path.
The bug was spotted by AI while I had it looking for something else.
It also proposed an initial version of the patch.
I reproduced the bug and tested the fix by adding code to inject
failures, on a build with KASAN.
I looked for similar bugs in related Intel drivers and did not find any. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Revert "net/smc: Introduce TCP ULP support"
This reverts commit d7cd421da9da2cc7b4d25b8537f66db5c8331c40.
As reported by Al Viro, the TCP ULP support for SMC is fundamentally
broken. The implementation attempts to convert an active TCP socket
into an SMC socket by modifying the underlying `struct file`, dentry,
and inode in-place, which violates core VFS invariants that assume
these structures are immutable for an open file, creating a risk of
use after free errors and general system instability.
Given the severity of this design flaw and the fact that cleaner
alternatives (e.g., LD_PRELOAD, BPF) exist for legacy application
transparency, the correct course of action is to remove this feature
entirely. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: mpc52xx: fix use-after-free on registration failure
Make sure to disable and free the interrupts in case controller
registration fails to avoid a potential use-after-free and resource
leak.
This issue was flagged by Sashiko when reviewing a controller
deregistration fix. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Completely fix fcport double free
In qla24xx_els_dcmd_iocb() sp->free is set to qla2x00_els_dcmd_sp_free().
When an error happens, this function is called by qla2x00_sp_release(),
when kref_put() releases the first and the last reference.
qla2x00_els_dcmd_sp_free() frees fcport by calling qla2x00_free_fcport().
Doing it one more time after kref_put() is a bad idea. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/amd: move wait_on_sem() out of spinlock
With iommu.strict=1, the existing completion wait path can cause soft
lockups under stressed environment, as wait_on_sem() busy-waits under the
spinlock with interrupts disabled.
Move the completion wait in iommu_completion_wait() out of the spinlock.
wait_on_sem() only polls the hardware-updated cmd_sem and does not require
iommu->lock, so holding the lock during the busy wait unnecessarily
increases contention and extends the time with interrupts disabled. |

9p/xen: protect xen_9pfs_front_free against concurrent calls
The xenwatch thread can race with other back-end change notifications
and call xen_9pfs_front_free() twice, hitting the observed general
protection fault due to a double-free. Guard the teardown path so only
one caller can release the front-end state at a time, preventing the
crash.
This is a fix for the following double-free:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: Fix locking usage for tcon fields
We used to use the cifs_tcp_ses_lock to protect a lot of objects
that are not just the server, ses or tcon lists. We later introduced
srv_lock, ses_lock and tc_lock to protect fields within the
corresponding structs. This was done to provide a more granular
protection and avoid unnecessary serialization.
There were still a couple of uses of cifs_tcp_ses_lock to provide
tcon fields. In this patch, I've replaced them with tc_lock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: remove xfs_attr_leaf_hasname
The calling convention of xfs_attr_leaf_hasname() is problematic, because
it returns a NULL buffer when xfs_attr3_leaf_read fails, a valid buffer
when xfs_attr3_leaf_lookup_int returns -ENOATTR or -EEXIST, and a
non-NULL buffer pointer for an already released buffer when
xfs_attr3_leaf_lookup_int fails with other error values.
Fix this by simply open coding xfs_attr_leaf_hasname in the callers, so
that the buffer release code is done by each caller of
xfs_attr3_leaf_read. |
