In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pmdomain: imx: Fix i.MX8MP VC8000E power up sequence Per errata[1]: ERR050531: VPU_NOC power down handshake may hang during VC8000E/VPUMIX power up/down cycling. Description: VC8000E reset de-assertion edge and AXI clock may have a timing issue. Workaround: Set bit2 (vc8000e_clk_en) of BLK_CLK_EN_CSR to 0 to gate off both AXI clock and VC8000E clock sent to VC8000E and AXI clock sent to VPU_NOC m_v_2 interface during VC8000E power up(VC8000E reset is de-asserted by HW) Add a bool variable is_errata_err050531 in 'struct imx8m_blk_ctrl_domain_data' to represent whether the workaround is needed. If is_errata_err050531 is true, first clear the clk before powering up gpc, then enable the clk after powering up gpc. [1] https://www.nxp.com/webapp/Download?colCode=IMX8MP_1P33A

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5: free mlx5_st_idx_data on final dealloc Workloads that repeatedly allocate and release mkeys carrying TPH steering-tag hints (e.g. churning RDMA MRs) leak one struct mlx5_st_idx_data per cycle; kmemleak flags it as unreferenced and the kmalloc slab grows over time. When the last reference to an ST table entry is dropped, mlx5_st_dealloc_index() removed the entry from idx_xa but the backing mlx5_st_idx_data allocation was never freed. Free idx_data after the xa_erase() so the lifetime of the bookkeeping struct matches the lifetime of the ST entry it tracks.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: rt2x00: avoid full teardown before work setup in probe rt2x00lib_probe_dev() uses the full rt2x00lib_remove_dev() teardown for all probe failures. However, drv_data allocation and workqueue allocation can fail before intf_work, autowakeup_work and sleep_work have been initialized. Do not enter the full remove path until the probe has reached the point where those work items are set up. Return directly for drv_data allocation failure, and use a small early cleanup path for workqueue allocation failure. This issue was found by our static analysis tool and then confirmed by manual review of rt2x00lib_probe_dev() and rt2x00lib_remove_dev(). The early probe exits should not call a common teardown path that assumes the later work setup has already completed. A QEMU PoC forced alloc_ordered_workqueue() to fail before the work initializers are reached. The resulting fail path entered rt2x00lib_remove_dev(), and DEBUG_OBJECTS reported invalid work drains with rt2x00lib_probe_dev() and rt2x00lib_remove_dev() in the stack.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mac80211: fix memory leak in ieee80211_register_hw() If kmemdup() fails while copying supported band structures, the error path jumps to fail_rate. This skips rate_control_deinitialize() and leaks the initialized local->rate_ctrl. Fix this by adding a fail_band label that shares the rate-control cleanup path before falling through to the remaining teardown. The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still present in v7.1-rc7. An x86_64 allyesconfig build showed no new warnings. As we do not have a suitable mac80211 device/driver combination to test with, no runtime testing was able to be performed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: brcmfmac: cyw: fix heap overflow on a short auth frame brcmf_notify_auth_frame_rx() takes the frame length from the firmware event and copies the frame body with the management header offset subtracted: u32 mgmt_frame_len = e->datalen - sizeof(struct brcmf_rx_mgmt_data); ... memcpy(&mgmt_frame->u, frame, mgmt_frame_len - offsetof(struct ieee80211_mgmt, u)); The only length check is e->datalen >= sizeof(*rxframe), so mgmt_frame_len can be anything from 0 up. offsetof(struct ieee80211_mgmt, u) is 24. When mgmt_frame_len is below that, the subtraction wraps as an unsigned value to a huge length. The memcpy then runs far past the kzalloc'd buffer. A malicious or malfunctioning AP can make the frame short during the external SAE auth exchange, so this is a remotely triggered heap overflow. Reject frames shorter than the management header offset before the copy.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: btrtl: validate firmware patch bounds rtlbt_parse_firmware() copies patch_length - 4 bytes before appending the firmware version. A malformed firmware patch shorter than the version field can make this subtraction underflow and turn the copy into an oversized read and write during Bluetooth setup. The existing patch_offset + patch_length check can also wrap on 32-bit architectures. Validate the patch length and range without arithmetic overflow before allocating or copying the patch.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: memstick: ms_block: reject a card that reports too many blocks msb_ftl_initialize() computes the zone count from the card block count with no bound: msb->zone_count = msb->block_count / MS_BLOCKS_IN_ZONE; ... for (i = 0; i < msb->zone_count; i++) msb->free_block_count[i] = MS_BLOCKS_IN_ZONE; msb->block_count is a card value. msb_read_boot_blocks() reads number_of_blocks from the card boot page and byte swaps it. free_block_count is a fixed int[MS_MAX_ZONES]. MS_MAX_ZONES is 16, so the valid indices are 0 to 15. The init loop above indexes it by zone_count. msb_mark_block_used() and msb_mark_block_unused() index it by pba / MS_BLOCKS_IN_ZONE, for pba up to block_count - 1. A card may report up to 65535 blocks. A block_count above 8192 (MS_MAX_ZONES * MS_BLOCKS_IN_ZONE) lets the pba index reach 16. That writes past free_block_count[] and corrupts struct msb_data. A larger count runs the init loop past the end too. A real Memory Stick has at most 16 zones. So it has at most 8192 blocks. msb_ftl_initialize() now rejects a card that reports more than MS_MAX_ZONES * MS_BLOCKS_IN_ZONE blocks.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipvs: fix more places with wrong ipv6 transport offsets Sashiko reports for more incorrect IPv6 transport offsets. The app code for TCP was assuming IPv4 network header even after the ipvsh argument was provided. This can cause problems with apps over IPv6. As for the only official app in the kernel tree (FTP) this problem is harmless because we use Netfilter to mangle the FTP ports and we do not adjust the TCP seq numbers. Also, provide correct offset of the ICMPV6 header in ip_vs_out_icmp_v6() for correct checksum checks when the IPv6 packet has extension headers.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipvs: reload ip header after head reallocation __ip_vs_get_out_rt() calls skb_ensure_writable() which may reallocate skb->head.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: reset: sunxi: fix memory region leak on ioremap failure In sunxi_reset_init(), when ioremap() fails, the memory region obtained via request_mem_region() is not released, leading to a resource leak. Add an err_mem_region label to properly release the memory region before freeing the data structure.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/spufs: fix out-of-bounds access in spufs_mem_mmap_access() spufs_mem_mmap_access() computes the local store offset as address - vma->vm_start, but bounds-checks it against vma->vm_end instead of the local store size. On 64-bit, offset is always well below vma->vm_end, so the clamp never fires and len stays unbounded against the LS_SIZE buffer returned by ctx->ops->get_ls(). Reject offsets at or beyond LS_SIZE and clamp len to the remaining space, mirroring the guard already used by spufs_mem_mmap_fault() and spufs_ps_fault().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/uaccess: correct check for CONFIG_PPC_E500 in mask_user_address() mask_user_address() incorrectly checks for CONFIG_E500 instead of CONFIG_PPC_E500, causing mask_user_address_isel() to not be used on E500 hardware. Fix the check to use the correct name.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: cfg80211: validate EHT MLE before MLD ID read cfg80211_gen_new_ie() copies ML probe response elements from the parent frame when the parent EHT multi-link element has an MLD ID matching the nontransmitted BSSID index. The code only checked that the extension element had more than one byte before calling ieee80211_mle_get_mld_id(). That helper assumes a BASIC MLE with enough common info and documents that callers must first use ieee80211_mle_type_ok(). Attack chain: malicious AP sends a short EHT MLE in an MBSSID beacon. cfg80211_inform_bss_frame_data() stores the copied IE buffer. cfg80211_parse_mbssid_data() builds the nontransmitted BSS IE. cfg80211_gen_new_ie() sees the EHT MLE in the parent frame. ieee80211_mle_get_mld_id() then reads past the IE boundary. Validate the MLE type and size before reading the MLD ID. This matches the contract required by the MLE helper and rejects the short element before any internal MLE fields are accessed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ieee80211: validate MLE common info length ieee80211_mle_common_size() uses the first common-info octet as the common information length for all known MLE types. However, ieee80211_mle_size_ok() only validates that octet for Basic, Probe Request, and TDLS MLEs. Reconfiguration MLEs also skipped the length octet when calculating the minimum common size, and Priority Access MLEs skipped validation of the advertised common information length. Account for the Reconfiguration common-info length octet and validate the advertised common information length for all known MLE types. Keep unknown-type handling unchanged. [remove now misleading comment]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mac80211: validate extension-frame layout before RX Extension frames only have the extension header at the regular 802.11 header offset. The generic RX path can still reach helpers and interface dispatch code that read regular header address fields before unsupported extension subtypes are dropped. mac80211 currently only handles S1G beacon extension frames. Drop other extension subtypes before they can reach regular-header RX processing. For S1G beacons, linearize the SKB with the management-frame path and require the fixed S1G beacon header, including optional fixed fields indicated by frame control, before generic RX dispatch. Route S1G beacons through the station/default-link RX path without regular-header station lookup. Avoid regular-header address reads in the mac80211 RX paths that process S1G extension beacons, including accept-frame, duplicate-detection, address-copy, and MLO address-translation paths. Also make ieee80211_get_bssid() length-safe before returning the S1G source-address pointer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mwifiex: fix permanently busy scans after multiple roam iterations In order for the firmware to sleep, the driver has to confirm a previously received sleep request. The normal sequence of evets goes like this: EVENT_SLEEP -> adapter->ps_state = PS_STATE_PRE_SLEEP -> sleep-confirm -> SLEEP -> EVENT_AWAKE -> AWAKE. Before sending the sleep-confirm command, the driver must make sure there are no commands either running or waiting to be completed. mwifiex_ret_802_11_associate() unconditionally sets ps_state = PS_STATE_AWAKE when it processes the association command response, outside of the normal powersave management flow. If EVENT_SLEEP arrives while the association command is in flight, ps_state is PRE_SLEEP when the association command response is parsed, and the forced AWAKE overwrites it. The deferred sleep-confirm is never sent. A subsequent scan_start command is correctly acknowledged, but the firmware doesn't generate scan_result events. The scan request never finishes, and additional requests from userspace fail with -EBUSY. After testing on both IW412 and W8997, I could only trigger the bug on the IW412 and observed the firmwares behave differently. On the IW412 the firmware still sends EVENT_SLEEP while the authentication / association process is ongoing. A W8997 under the same conditions seems to suppress power-save for the duration of the association, so PRE_SLEEP never coincided with the association response even after extended periods of testing using the loops described below (>12hours). On the IW412, the delay between commands that triggers an EVENT_SLEEP was empirically determined to be ~20ms. This delay can naturally occur when the driver is outputting debugging information (debug_mask = 0x00000037), in which situation the busy scans issue is repeatable while running "test 1)" as described below. If the delay between commands is less than ~20ms, the firmware stays awake and the issue was not reproducible running the same test. The host_mlme=false path also behaves differently. In this case, the entire authentication / association transaction is executed by one command (HostCmd_CMD_802_11_ASSOCIATE), and the firmware doesn't emit EVENT_SLEEP while the command is running. Remove the assignment so the ps_state is only manipulated in the paths that are related to powersave event handling and on the main workqueue for correct sleep confirmation. The following loop tests were performed (with debugging output enabled): 1) force roaming between two AP's, one 5GHz and one 2.4GHz, same SSID. Use wpa_cli to trigger the roaming behavior, sleep 2s between iterations. 2) force a disconnection to AP 1 and a connection to AP 2, test scan. Use wpa_cli to trigger the connection changes, sleep 2s between iterations. Each test ran in each device for at least 3 hours.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mtd: virt-concat: free duplicate generated name Every MTD registration runs mtd_virt_concat_create_join(). Once a virtual concat has already been registered, the function builds the same name again and takes the equal-name branch. That branch skips to the next item without freeing the newly allocated string. Free the temporary name before continuing.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mtd: mchp23k256: use SPI match data for chip caps The driver stores chip capacity information in both the OF match table and the SPI id table. Probe currently uses of_device_get_match_data(), so a non-OF SPI modalias match falls back to mchp23k256_caps even when the SPI id table selected a different part. Use spi_get_device_match_data() so SPI id-table driver_data is consumed when OF match data is absent. This keeps the existing default fallback while avoiding the wrong MTD geometry for id-table-only matches.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mtd: rawnand: lpc32xx_slc: fail DMA transfer on completion timeout lpc32xx_xmit_dma() waits for the DMA completion callback but ignores wait_for_completion_timeout(). A timed out DMA transfer is therefore unmapped and reported as successful to the NAND read/write path. Return -ETIMEDOUT when the completion wait expires. Terminate the DMA channel before unmapping the scatterlist so the timed out transfer cannot continue to access the buffer after the error is returned.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mmc: sdhci-esdhc-imx: fix esdhc_change_pinstate() to allow default state restore esdhc_change_pinstate() checks for pins_100mhz and pins_200mhz at the top of the function and returns -EINVAL if either is not defined. This prevents the default case from ever being reached, which means devices with a sleep pinctrl state but without high-speed pin states (100mhz/ 200mhz) can never restore their default pin configuration. Move the IS_ERR checks for pins_100mhz and pins_200mhz into their respective switch cases.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mmc: sdhci-esdhc-imx: disable irq during suspend to fix unhandled interrupt When using WIFI out-of-band wakeup, an "irq xxx: nobody cared" warning occurs. This happens because the usdhc interrupt is not disabled during system suspend when device_may_wakeup() returns false. The sequence of events leading to this issue: 1. System enters suspend without disabling usdhc interrupt (because device_may_wakeup() returns false for usdhc device) 2. WIFI out-of-band wakeup triggers system resume via GPIO interrupt 3. WIFI sends a Card interrupt before usdhc has fully resumed 4. usdhc is still in runtime suspend state and cannot handle the interrupt properly 5. The unhandled interrupt triggers "nobody cared" warning Fix this by unconditionally disabling the usdhc interrupt during suspend and re-enabling it during resume, regardless of the wakeup capability. This ensures no interrupts are processed during the suspend/resume transition.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mmc: sdhci-esdhc-imx: use pm_runtime_resume_and_get() in suspend Replace pm_runtime_get_sync() with pm_runtime_resume_and_get() to simplify error handling. pm_runtime_resume_and_get() automatically drops the usage counter on failure, avoiding the need for a separate pm_runtime_put_noidle() call. If it fails, the device is unclocked and accessing hardware registers would cause a kernel panic, so return the error immediately.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Reject negative const offsets for buffer pointers The verifier rejects variable offsets for PTR_TO_TP_BUFFER and PTR_TO_BUF accesses, but it currently accepts a constant negative offset produced by pointer arithmetic. Commit 022ac0750883 ("bpf: use reg->var_off instead of reg->off for pointers") moved constant pointer offsets from reg->off to reg->var_off. However, __check_buffer_access() continued to check only the instruction offset. An access with reg->var_off equal to -8 and an instruction offset of zero therefore passes verification. For writable raw tracepoints, the access end is also calculated from the unsigned reg->var_off.value. An eight-byte access starting at -8 wraps the calculated end to zero, allowing the program to load and attach without increasing max_tp_access. After ensuring that reg->var_off is constant, calculate the effective access start using signed arithmetic and reject it when it is negative. Use the validated start to calculate the access end for both PTR_TO_TP_BUFFER and PTR_TO_BUF.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: device property: initialize the remaining fields of fwnode_handle in fwnode_init() If a firmware node is allocated on the stack (for instance: temporary software node whose life-time we control) or on the heap - but using a non-zeroing allocation function - and initialized using fwnode_init(), its secondary pointer will contain uninitialized memory which likely will be neither NULL nor IS_ERR() and so may end up being dereferenced (for example: in dev_to_swnode()). Set fwnode->secondary to NULL on initialization. While at it: initialize the remaining fields of struct fwnode_handle too just to be sure. [ Fix typo in commit message. - Danilo ]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix potential deadlock in gc_merge path of f2fs_balance_fs() When we mount device w/ gc_merge mount option, we may suffer below potential deadlock: Kworker GC trehad Truncator - f2fs_write_cache_pages - f2fs_write_single_data_page - f2fs_do_write_data_page - folio_start_writeback --- set writeback flag on folio - f2fs_outplace_write_data : cached folio in internal bio cache - f2fs_balance_fs - wake_up(gc_thread) : wake up gc thread to run foreground GC - finish_wait(fggc_wq) : wait on the waitqueue --- wait on GC thread to finish the work - truncate_inode_pages_range - __filemap_get_folio(, FGP_LOCK) --- lock folio - truncate_inode_partial_folio - folio_wait_writeback --- wait on writeback being cleared - do_garbage_collect - move_data_page - f2fs_get_lock_data_folio - lock on folio --- blocked on folio's lock In order to avoid such deadlock, let's call below functions to commit cached bios in GC_MERGE path of f2fs_balance_fs() as the same as we did in NOGC_MERGE path. - f2fs_submit_merged_write(sbi, DATA); - f2fs_submit_all_merged_ipu_writes(sbi);

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: binder: cache secctx size before release zeroes it binder_transaction() bounds the scatter-gather buffer area with sg_buf_end_offset and subtracts the aligned LSM context size because the secctx is written at the tail of that area. The subtraction reads lsmctx.len, but that field has already been cleared by the time the line runs: security_secid_to_secctx(secid, &lsmctx) /* lsmctx.len set */ lsmctx_aligned_size = ALIGN(lsmctx.len, sizeof(u64)) extra_buffers_size += lsmctx_aligned_size ... security_release_secctx(&lsmctx) /* memset zeroes len */ ... sg_buf_end_offset = sg_buf_offset + extra_buffers_size - ALIGN(lsmctx.len, sizeof(u64)) /* ALIGN(0,8) */ security_release_secctx() does memset(cp, 0, sizeof(*cp)), so lsmctx.len reads back as 0 and the subtraction contributes nothing, leaving sg_buf_end_offset too large by the aligned secctx size on every transaction to a txn_security_ctx node. Each BINDER_TYPE_PTR object then derives buf_left = sg_buf_end_offset - sg_buf_offset as the sole upper bound on its copy, so the inflated end offset lets the copy run into the bytes that already hold the secctx. The aligned size must therefore be cached before release rather than re-read from the now-cleared field. Fix by caching it in lsmctx_aligned_size at function scope when it is first computed and subtracting lsmctx_aligned_size instead of re-reading lsmctx.len after release. Reuse the same value for the earlier buf_offset computation.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: use opener credentials for FSCTL mutations SET_SPARSE, SET_ZERO_DATA and SET_COMPRESSION operate on an open SMB handle but call VFS xattr, fallocate or fileattr helpers with the current ksmbd worker credentials. Those helpers can revalidate inode permissions, ownership and LSM policy independently of the SMB handle access mask. Run each operation with the credentials captured in the target file when the handle was opened. Keep credential handling local to these single-file FSCTLs rather than applying session credentials to the complete IOCTL handler, which also contains handle-less and multi-handle operations.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: atm: ueagle-atm: wait for pre-firmware load in .disconnect() ueagle-atm uses the asynchronous request_firmware_nowait() in .probe(), but does not wait for its completion, not even in .disconnect(); so, if the device is unplugged meanwhile, its teardown runs concurrently with that. Even though this inconsistency is worth addressing on its own, it has also triggered several bug reports in syzbot over the years (some auto-closed) where the firmware sysfs fallback mechanism (CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER) creates a firmware subdirectory in the device directory during its removal, which might hit unexpected conditions in kernfs, apparently, depending at which point the add and remove operations raced. (See links.) The pattern is: usb ?-?: Direct firmware load for ueagle-atm/eagle?.fw failed with error -2 usb ?-?: Falling back to sysfs fallback for: ueagle-atm/eagle?.fw <ERROR> Call trace: ... kernfs_create_dir_ns sysfs_create_dir_ns create_dir kobject_add_internal kobject_add_varg kobject_add class_dir_create_and_add get_device_parent device_add fw_load_sysfs_fallback fw_load_from_user_helper firmware_fallback_sysfs _request_firmware request_firmware_work_func ... (Some variations are observed, after fw_load_sysfs_fallback(), e.g., [1].) While the kernfs side is being looked at, the ueagle-atm side can be fixed by waiting for the pre-firmware load in the .disconnect() handler. This change has a similar approach to previous work by Andrey Tsygunka [2] (wait_for_completion() in .disconnect()), but it is relatively different in design/implementation; using the Originally-by tag for credit assignment. This has been tested with: - synthetic reproducer to check the error path; - USB gadget (virtual device) to check the firmware upload path; - QEMU device emulator to check the device ID re-enumeration path; (The latter two were written by Claude; no other code/text in this commit.)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: liveupdate: validate session type before performing operation The sessions ioctls are not applicable to all session types. PRESERVE_FD is only applicable to outgoing sessions. RETRIEVE_FD and FINISH are only valid for incoming session. Calling a incoming ioctl on an outgoing session is invalid and can cause file handlers to run into unexpected errors. For example, a user can create a (outgoing) session, preserve a memfd, and then immediately do a retrieve without doing a kexec in between. This would result in memfd's retrieve handler to run. The handlers expects to be called from a post-kexec context, and will try to do a kho_restore_vmalloc() or kho_restore_folio() to try and restore memory. KHO catches this (thanks to KHO_PAGE_MAGIC) and returns an error, but since this is considered an internal error and KHO throws out a bunch of WARN()s. Associate a type with each ioctl op and validate the type in luo_session_ioctl() before dispatching the ioctl handler to make sure the op is being called for the right session type.
