In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iio: gyro: mpu3050: Fix incorrect free_irq() variable The handler for the IRQ part of this driver is mpu3050->trig but, in the teardown free_irq() is called with handler mpu3050. Use correct IRQ handler when calling free_irq().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iio: gyro: mpu3050: Fix irq resource leak The interrupt handler is setup but only a few lines down if iio_trigger_register() fails the function returns without properly releasing the handler. Add cleanup goto to resolve resource leak. Detected by Smatch: drivers/iio/gyro/mpu3050-core.c:1128 mpu3050_trigger_probe() warn: 'irq' from request_threaded_irq() not released on lines: 1124.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gpib: lpvo_usb: fix memory leak on disconnect The driver iterates over the registered USB interfaces during GPIB attach and takes a reference to their USB devices until a match is found. These references are never released which leads to a memory leak when devices are disconnected. Fix the leak by dropping the unnecessary references.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: misc: usbio: Fix URB memory leak on submit failure When usb_submit_urb() fails in usbio_probe(), the previously allocated URB is never freed, causing a memory leak. Fix this by jumping to err_free_urb label to properly release the URB on the error path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: dwc2: gadget: Fix spin_lock/unlock mismatch in dwc2_hsotg_udc_stop() dwc2_gadget_exit_clock_gating() internally calls call_gadget() macro, which expects hsotg->lock to be held since it does spin_unlock/spin_lock around the gadget driver callback invocation. However, dwc2_hsotg_udc_stop() calls dwc2_gadget_exit_clock_gating() without holding the lock. This leads to: - spin_unlock on a lock that is not held (undefined behavior) - The lock remaining held after dwc2_gadget_exit_clock_gating() returns, causing a deadlock when spin_lock_irqsave() is called later in the same function. Fix this by acquiring hsotg->lock before calling dwc2_gadget_exit_clock_gating() and releasing it afterwards, which satisfies the locking requirement of the call_gadget() macro.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: cdns3: gadget: fix NULL pointer dereference in ep_queue When the gadget endpoint is disabled or not yet configured, the ep->desc pointer can be NULL. This leads to a NULL pointer dereference when __cdns3_gadget_ep_queue() is called, causing a kernel crash. Add a check to return -ESHUTDOWN if ep->desc is NULL, which is the standard return code for unconfigured endpoints. This prevents potential crashes when ep_queue is called on endpoints that are not ready.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: cdns3: gadget: fix state inconsistency on gadget init failure When cdns3_gadget_start() fails, the DRD hardware is left in gadget mode while software state remains INACTIVE, creating hardware/software state inconsistency. When switching to host mode via sysfs: echo host > /sys/class/usb_role/13180000.usb-role-switch/role The role state is not set to CDNS_ROLE_STATE_ACTIVE due to the error, so cdns_role_stop() skips cleanup because state is still INACTIVE. This violates the DRD controller design specification (Figure22), which requires returning to idle state before switching roles. This leads to a synchronous external abort in xhci_gen_setup() when setting up the host controller: [ 516.440698] configfs-gadget 13180000.usb: failed to start g1: -19 [ 516.442035] cdns-usb3 13180000.usb: Failed to add gadget [ 516.443278] cdns-usb3 13180000.usb: set role 2 has failed ... [ 1301.375722] xhci-hcd xhci-hcd.1.auto: xHCI Host Controller [ 1301.377716] Internal error: synchronous external abort: 96000010 [#1] PREEMPT SMP [ 1301.382485] pc : xhci_gen_setup+0xa4/0x408 [ 1301.393391] backtrace: ... xhci_gen_setup+0xa4/0x408 <-- CRASH xhci_plat_setup+0x44/0x58 usb_add_hcd+0x284/0x678 ... cdns_role_set+0x9c/0xbc <-- Role switch Fix by calling cdns_drd_gadget_off() in the error path to properly clean up the DRD gadget state.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: auxdisplay: line-display: fix NULL dereference in linedisp_release linedisp_release() currently retrieves the enclosing struct linedisp via to_linedisp(). That lookup depends on the attachment list, but the attachment may already have been removed before put_device() invokes the release callback. This can happen in linedisp_unregister(), and can also be reached from some linedisp_register() error paths. In that case, to_linedisp() returns NULL and linedisp_release() dereferences it while freeing the display resources. The struct device released here is the embedded linedisp->dev used by linedisp_register(), so retrieve the enclosing object directly with container_of() instead.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bridge: br_nd_send: validate ND option lengths br_nd_send() walks ND options according to option-provided lengths. A malformed option can make the parser advance beyond the computed option span or use a too-short source LLADDR option payload. Validate option lengths against the remaining NS option area before advancing, and only read source LLADDR when the option is large enough for an Ethernet address.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: comedi: dt2815: add hardware detection to prevent crash The dt2815 driver crashes when attached to I/O ports without actual hardware present. This occurs because syzkaller or users can attach the driver to arbitrary I/O addresses via COMEDI_DEVCONFIG ioctl. When no hardware exists at the specified port, inb() operations return 0xff (floating bus), but outb() operations can trigger page faults due to undefined behavior, especially under race conditions: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 000000007fffff90 #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page RIP: 0010:dt2815_attach+0x6e0/0x1110 Add hardware detection by reading the status register before attempting any write operations. If the read returns 0xff, assume no hardware is present and fail the attach with -ENODEV. This prevents crashes from outb() operations on non-existent hardware.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: comedi: runflags cannot determine whether to reclaim chanlist syzbot reported a memory leak [1], because commit 4e1da516debb ("comedi: Add reference counting for Comedi command handling") did not consider the exceptional exit case in do_cmd_ioctl() where runflags is not set. This caused chanlist not to be properly freed by do_become_nonbusy(), as it only frees chanlist when runflags is correctly set. Added a check in do_become_nonbusy() for the case where runflags is not set, to properly free the chanlist memory. [1] BUG: memory leak backtrace (crc 844a0efa): __comedi_get_user_chanlist drivers/comedi/comedi_fops.c:1815 [inline] do_cmd_ioctl.part.0+0x112/0x350 drivers/comedi/comedi_fops.c:1890 do_cmd_ioctl drivers/comedi/comedi_fops.c:1858 [inline]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: comedi: ni_atmio16d: Fix invalid clean-up after failed attach If the driver's COMEDI "attach" handler function (`atmio16d_attach()`) returns an error, the COMEDI core will call the driver's "detach" handler function (`atmio16d_detach()`) to clean up. This calls `reset_atmio16d()` unconditionally, but depending on where the error occurred in the attach handler, the device may not have been sufficiently initialized to call `reset_atmio16d()`. It uses `dev->iobase` as the I/O port base address and `dev->private` as the pointer to the COMEDI device's private data structure. `dev->iobase` may still be set to its initial value of 0, which would result in undesired writes to low I/O port addresses. `dev->private` may still be `NULL`, which would result in null pointer dereferences. Fix `atmio16d_detach()` by checking that `dev->private` is valid (non-null) before calling `reset_atmio16d()`. This implies that `dev->iobase` was set correctly since that is set up before `dev->private`.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/zcrypt: Fix memory leak with CCA cards used as accelerator Tests showed that there is a memory leak if CCA cards are used as accelerator for clear key RSA requests (ME and CRT). With the last rework for the memory allocation the AP messages are allocated by ap_init_apmsg() but for some reason on two places (ME and CRT) the older allocation was still in place. So the first allocation simple was never freed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: PM: EM: Fix NULL pointer dereference when perf domain ID is not found dev_energymodel_nl_get_perf_domains_doit() calls em_perf_domain_get_by_id() but does not check the return value before passing it to __em_nl_get_pd_size(). When a caller supplies a non-existent perf domain ID, em_perf_domain_get_by_id() returns NULL, and __em_nl_get_pd_size() immediately dereferences pd->cpus (struct offset 0x30), causing a NULL pointer dereference. The sister handler dev_energymodel_nl_get_perf_table_doit() already handles this correctly via __em_nl_get_pd_table_id(), which returns NULL and causes the caller to return -EINVAL. Add the same NULL check in the get-perf-domains do handler. [ rjw: Subject and changelog edits ]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: counter: rz-mtu3-cnt: prevent counter from being toggled multiple times Runtime PM counter is incremented / decremented each time the sysfs enable file is written to. If user writes 0 to the sysfs enable file multiple times, runtime PM usage count underflows, generating the following message. rz-mtu3-counter rz-mtu3-counter.0: Runtime PM usage count underflow! At the same time, hardware registers end up being accessed with clocks off in rz_mtu3_terminate_counter() to disable an already disabled channel. If user writes 1 to the sysfs enable file multiple times, runtime PM usage count will be incremented each time, requiring the same number of 0 writes to get it back to 0. If user writes 0 to the sysfs enable file while PWM is in progress, PWM is stopped without counter being the owner of the underlying MTU3 channel. Check against the cached count_is_enabled value and exit if the user is trying to set the same enable value.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: counter: rz-mtu3-cnt: do not use struct rz_mtu3_channel's dev member The counter driver can use HW channels 1 and 2, while the PWM driver can use HW channels 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7. The dev member is assigned both by the counter driver and the PWM driver for channels 1 and 2, to their own struct device instance, overwriting the previous value. The sub-drivers race to assign their own struct device pointer to the same struct rz_mtu3_channel's dev member. The dev member of struct rz_mtu3_channel is used by the counter sub-driver for runtime PM. Depending on the probe order of the counter and PWM sub-drivers, the dev member may point to the wrong struct device instance, causing the counter sub-driver to do runtime PM actions on the wrong device. To fix this, use the parent pointer of the counter, which is assigned during probe to the correct struct device, not the struct device pointer inside the shared struct rz_mtu3_channel.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vxlan: validate ND option lengths in vxlan_na_create vxlan_na_create() walks ND options according to option-provided lengths. A malformed option can make the parser advance beyond the computed option span or use a too-short source LLADDR option payload. Validate option lengths against the remaining NS option area before advancing, and only read source LLADDR when the option is large enough for an Ethernet address.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: ftgmac100: fix ring allocation unwind on open failure ftgmac100_alloc_rings() allocates rx_skbs, tx_skbs, rxdes, txdes, and rx_scratch in stages. On intermediate failures it returned -ENOMEM directly, leaking resources allocated earlier in the function. Rework the failure path to use staged local unwind labels and free allocated resources in reverse order before returning -ENOMEM. This matches common netdev allocation cleanup style.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: ethernet: mtk_ppe: avoid NULL deref when gmac0 is disabled If the gmac0 is disabled, the precheck for a valid ingress device will cause a NULL pointer deref and crash the system. This happens because eth->netdev[0] will be NULL but the code will directly try to access netdev_ops. Instead of just checking for the first net_device, it must be checked if any of the mtk_eth net_devices is matching the netdev_ops of the ingress device.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sched_ext: Fix is_bpf_migration_disabled() false negative on non-PREEMPT_RCU Since commit 8e4f0b1ebcf2 ("bpf: use rcu_read_lock_dont_migrate() for trampoline.c"), the BPF prolog (__bpf_prog_enter) calls migrate_disable() only when CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU is enabled, via rcu_read_lock_dont_migrate(). Without CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU, the prolog never touches migration_disabled, so migration_disabled == 1 always means the task is truly migration-disabled regardless of whether it is the current task. The old unconditional p == current check was a false negative in this case, potentially allowing a migration-disabled task to be dispatched to a remote CPU and triggering scx_error in task_can_run_on_remote_rq(). Only apply the p == current disambiguation when CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU is enabled, where the ambiguity with the BPF prolog still exists.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sched_ext: Fix stale direct dispatch state in ddsp_dsq_id @p->scx.ddsp_dsq_id can be left set (non-SCX_DSQ_INVALID) triggering a spurious warning in mark_direct_dispatch() when the next wakeup's ops.select_cpu() calls scx_bpf_dsq_insert(), such as: WARNING: kernel/sched/ext.c:1273 at scx_dsq_insert_commit+0xcd/0x140 The root cause is that ddsp_dsq_id was only cleared in dispatch_enqueue(), which is not reached in all paths that consume or cancel a direct dispatch verdict. Fix it by clearing it at the right places: - direct_dispatch(): cache the direct dispatch state in local variables and clear it before dispatch_enqueue() on the synchronous path. For the deferred path, the direct dispatch state must remain set until process_ddsp_deferred_locals() consumes them. - process_ddsp_deferred_locals(): cache the dispatch state in local variables and clear it before calling dispatch_to_local_dsq(), which may migrate the task to another rq. - do_enqueue_task(): clear the dispatch state on the enqueue path (local/global/bypass fallbacks), where the direct dispatch verdict is ignored. - dequeue_task_scx(): clear the dispatch state after dispatch_dequeue() to handle both the deferred dispatch cancellation and the holding_cpu race, covering all cases where a pending direct dispatch is cancelled. - scx_disable_task(): clear the direct dispatch state when transitioning a task out of the current scheduler. Waking tasks may have had the direct dispatch state set by the outgoing scheduler's ops.select_cpu() and then been queued on a wake_list via ttwu_queue_wakelist(), when SCX_OPS_ALLOW_QUEUED_WAKEUP is set. Such tasks are not on the runqueue and are not iterated by scx_bypass(), so their direct dispatch state won't be cleared. Without this clear, any subsequent SCX scheduler that tries to direct dispatch the task will trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in mark_direct_dispatch().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gpio: Fix resource leaks on errors in gpiochip_add_data_with_key() Since commit aab5c6f20023 ("gpio: set device type for GPIO chips"), `gdev->dev.release` is unset. As a result, the reference count to `gdev->dev` isn't dropped on the error handling paths. Drop the reference on errors. Also reorder the instructions to make the error handling simpler. Now gpiochip_add_data_with_key() roughly looks like: >>> Some memory allocation. Go to ERR ZONE 1 on errors. >>> device_initialize(). gpiodev_release() takes over the responsibility for freeing the resources of `gdev->dev`. The subsequent error handling paths shouldn't go through ERR ZONE 1 again which leads to double free. >>> Some initialization mainly on `gdev`. >>> The rest of initialization. Go to ERR ZONE 2 on errors. >>> Chip registration success and exit. >>> ERR ZONE 2. gpio_device_put() and exit. >>> ERR ZONE 1.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: u_ether: Fix race between gether_disconnect and eth_stop A race condition between gether_disconnect() and eth_stop() leads to a NULL pointer dereference. Specifically, if eth_stop() is triggered concurrently while gether_disconnect() is tearing down the endpoints, eth_stop() attempts to access the cleared endpoint descriptor, causing the following NPE: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference Call trace: __dwc3_gadget_ep_enable+0x60/0x788 dwc3_gadget_ep_enable+0x70/0xe4 usb_ep_enable+0x60/0x15c eth_stop+0xb8/0x108 Because eth_stop() crashes while holding the dev->lock, the thread running gether_disconnect() fails to acquire the same lock and spins forever, resulting in a hardlockup: Core - Debugging Information for Hardlockup core(7) Call trace: queued_spin_lock_slowpath+0x94/0x488 _raw_spin_lock+0x64/0x6c gether_disconnect+0x19c/0x1e8 ncm_set_alt+0x68/0x1a0 composite_setup+0x6a0/0xc50 The root cause is that the clearing of dev->port_usb in gether_disconnect() is delayed until the end of the function. Move the clearing of dev->port_usb to the very beginning of gether_disconnect() while holding dev->lock. This cuts off the link immediately, ensuring eth_stop() will see dev->port_usb as NULL and safely bail out.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: u_ether: Fix NULL pointer deref in eth_get_drvinfo Commit ec35c1969650 ("usb: gadget: f_ncm: Fix net_device lifecycle with device_move") reparents the gadget device to /sys/devices/virtual during unbind, clearing the gadget pointer. If the userspace tool queries on the surviving interface during this detached window, this leads to a NULL pointer dereference. Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference Call trace: eth_get_drvinfo+0x50/0x90 ethtool_get_drvinfo+0x5c/0x1f0 __dev_ethtool+0xaec/0x1fe0 dev_ethtool+0x134/0x2e0 dev_ioctl+0x338/0x560 Add a NULL check for dev->gadget in eth_get_drvinfo(). When detached, skip copying the fw_version and bus_info strings, which is natively handled by ethtool_get_drvinfo for empty strings.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: uvc: fix NULL pointer dereference during unbind race Commit b81ac4395bbe ("usb: gadget: uvc: allow for application to cleanly shutdown") introduced two stages of synchronization waits totaling 1500ms in uvc_function_unbind() to prevent several types of kernel panics. However, this timing-based approach is insufficient during power management (PM) transitions. When the PM subsystem starts freezing user space processes, the wait_event_interruptible_timeout() is aborted early, which allows the unbind thread to proceed and nullify the gadget pointer (cdev->gadget = NULL): [ 814.123447][ T947] configfs-gadget.g1 gadget.0: uvc: uvc_function_unbind() [ 814.178583][ T3173] PM: suspend entry (deep) [ 814.192487][ T3173] Freezing user space processes [ 814.197668][ T947] configfs-gadget.g1 gadget.0: uvc: uvc_function_unbind no clean disconnect, wait for release When the PM subsystem resumes or aborts the suspend and tasks are restarted, the V4L2 release path is executed and attempts to access the already nullified gadget pointer, triggering a kernel panic: [ 814.292597][ C0] PM: pm_system_irq_wakeup: 479 triggered dhdpcie_host_wake [ 814.386727][ T3173] Restarting tasks ...

State Synchronization (flag + mutex) Introduce a 'func_unbound' flag in struct uvc_device. This allows uvc_function_disconnect() to safely skip accessing the nullified cdev->gadget pointer. As suggested by Alan Stern, this flag is protected by a new mutex (uvc->lock) to ensure proper memory ordering and prevent instruction reordering or speculative loads. This mutex is also used to protect 'func_connected' for consistent state management. 2. Explicit Synchronization (completion) Use a completion to synchronize uvc_function_unbind() with the uvc_vdev_release() callback. This prevents Use-After-Free (UAF) by ensuring struct uvc_device is freed after all video device resources are released.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_ecm: Fix net_device lifecycle with device_move The net_device is allocated during function instance creation and registered during the bind phase with the gadget device as its sysfs parent. When the function unbinds, the parent device is destroyed, but the net_device survives, resulting in dangling sysfs symlinks: console:/ # ls -l /sys/class/net/usb0 lrwxrwxrwx ... /sys/class/net/usb0 -> /sys/devices/platform/.../gadget.0/net/usb0 console:/ # ls -l /sys/devices/platform/.../gadget.0/net/usb0 ls: .../gadget.0/net/usb0: No such file or directory Use device_move() to reparent the net_device between the gadget device tree and /sys/devices/virtual across bind and unbind cycles. During the final unbind, calling device_move(NULL) moves the net_device to the virtual device tree before the gadget device is destroyed. On rebinding, device_move() reparents the device back under the new gadget, ensuring proper sysfs topology and power management ordering. To maintain compatibility with legacy composite drivers (e.g., multi.c), the bound flag is used to indicate whether the network device is shared and pre-registered during the legacy driver's bind phase.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: gadget: f_hid: move list and spinlock inits from bind to alloc There was an issue when you did the following: - setup and bind an hid gadget - open /dev/hidg0 - use the resulting fd in EPOLL_CTL_ADD - unbind the UDC - bind the UDC - use the fd in EPOLL_CTL_DEL When CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST was enabled, a list_del corruption was reported within remove_wait_queue (via ep_remove_wait_queue). After some debugging I found out that the queues, which f_hid registers via poll_wait were the problem. These were initialized using init_waitqueue_head inside hidg_bind. So effectively, the bind function re-initialized the queues while there were still items in them. The solution is to move the initialization from hidg_bind to hidg_alloc to extend their lifetimes to the lifetime of the function instance. Additionally, I found many other possibly problematic init calls in the bind function, which I moved as well.
