ImageMagick before 7.1.2-27 contains a memory leak vulnerability in the magick command-line interface when invalid options are provided. Attackers can trigger memory exhaustion by repeatedly supplying malformed command-line arguments to consume system resources.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: qat - remove unused character device and IOCTLs
The QAT driver exposes a character device (qat_adf_ctl) with IOCTLs
for device configuration, start, stop, status query and enumeration.
These IOCTLs are not part of any public uAPI header and have no known
in-tree or out-of-tree users. Device lifecycle is already managed via
sysfs.
The ioctl interface also increases the attack surface and is the
subject of a number of bug reports.
Remove the character device, the IOCTL definitions, and the related
data structures (adf_dev_status_info, adf_user_cfg_key_val,
adf_user_cfg_section, adf_user_cfg_ctl_data). Drop the now-unused
adf_cfg_user.h header and strip adf_ctl_drv.c down to the minimal
module_init/module_exit hooks for workqueue, AER, and crypto/compression
algorithm registration.
Clean up leftover dead code that was only reachable from the removed
IOCTL paths: adf_cfg_del_all(), adf_devmgr_verify_id(),
adf_devmgr_get_num_dev(), adf_devmgr_get_dev_by_id(),
adf_get_vf_real_id() and the unused ADF_CFG macros.
Additionally, drop the entry associated to QAT IOCTLs in
ioctl-number.rst.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: serial: samsung: Remove redundant port lock acquisition in rx helpers
Sashiko identified a deadlock when the console flow is engaged [1].
When console flow control is enabled (UPF_CONS_FLOW),
s3c24xx_serial_stop_tx() calls s3c24xx_serial_rx_enable() and
s3c24xx_serial_start_tx() calls s3c24xx_serial_rx_disable().
The serial core framework invokes the .stop_tx() and .start_tx()
callbacks with the port->lock spinlock already held. Furthermore, all
internal driver paths that invoke stop_tx (such as the DMA TX
completion handler s3c24xx_serial_tx_dma_complete() or the PIO TX IRQ
handler s3c24xx_serial_tx_irq()) also acquire port->lock prior to
calling it. (Note that s3c24xx_serial_start_tx() is only invoked by the
serial core).
However, s3c24xx_serial_rx_enable() and s3c24xx_serial_rx_disable()
unconditionally attempt to acquire port->lock again using
uart_port_lock_irqsave(). Since spinlocks are not recursive, this
causes a deadlock on the same CPU when console flow control is engaged.
Remove the redundant lock acquisition from both rx helper functions.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/hyperv: validate VMBus packet size in receive callback
hyperv_receive_sub() reads msg->vid_hdr.type and dispatches into one
of four message-type branches without knowing how many bytes the host
wrote into hv->recv_buf. The completion path then runs
memcpy(hv->init_buf, msg, VMBUS_MAX_PACKET_SIZE), so the consumer that
wakes on wait_for_completion_timeout() can read up to 16 KiB of
residue from a prior message as if it were the response payload.
Pass bytes_recvd into hyperv_receive_sub() and reject any packet that
does not cover the pipe + synthvid header. A single switch on
msg->vid_hdr.type then computes the type-specific payload size: the
three completion-driving types (SYNTHVID_VERSION_RESPONSE,
SYNTHVID_RESOLUTION_RESPONSE, SYNTHVID_VRAM_LOCATION_ACK) fall through
to a shared exit that requires that size before memcpy/complete, while
SYNTHVID_FEATURE_CHANGE validates its own payload and returns before
reading is_dirt_needed. Unknown types are dropped.
SYNTHVID_RESOLUTION_RESPONSE is variable length: the host fills
resolution_count entries, not the full SYNTHVID_MAX_RESOLUTION_COUNT
array. Validate the fixed prefix first so resolution_count can be
read, bound it against the array, then require only the count-sized
array, so the shorter responses the host actually sends are accepted.
Only run the sub-handler when vmbus_recvpacket() returned success. The
memcpy length is bytes_recvd, which is bounded by VMBUS_MAX_PACKET_SIZE
only on a successful receive; on -ENOBUFS vmbus_recvpacket() instead
reports the required length, which can exceed hv->recv_buf, so copying
bytes_recvd would read and write past the 16 KiB buffers. Gating on the
success return keeps the copy bounded. The nonzero-return path is itself
a malformed-message case and is now logged rather than silently skipped;
channel recovery is not attempted.
Rejected packets are reported via drm_err_ratelimited() rather than
silently dropped, matching the CoCo-hardened pattern in
hv_kvp_onchannelcallback().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ethtool: tsconfig: fix missing ethnl_ops_complete()
tsconfig_prepare_data() calls ethnl_ops_begin(), we need to call
ethnl_ops_complete() before returning the error.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: move policy_bydst RCU sync from per-netns .exit to .pre_exit
The struct pernet_operations docstring in include/net/net_namespace.h
explicitly warns against blocking RCU primitives in .exit handlers:
Exit methods using blocking RCU primitives, such as
synchronize_rcu(), should be implemented via exit_batch.
[...]
Please, avoid synchronize_rcu() at all, where it's possible.
Note that a combination of pre_exit() and exit() can
be used, since a synchronize_rcu() is guaranteed between
the calls.
xfrm_policy_fini() violates this: it calls synchronize_rcu() before
freeing the policy_bydst hash tables (so no RCU reader is mid-
traversal at free time), but runs from xfrm_net_ops.exit -- once per
namespace -- so a cleanup_net() of N namespaces pays N full RCU
grace periods serially.
Use the documented pre_exit/exit split. Move the policy flush (and
the workqueue drains it depends on) into a new .pre_exit handler;
xfrm_policy_fini() then runs in .exit and frees the hash tables
after the synchronize_rcu_expedited() that cleanup_net() guarantees
between the two phases. Providing O(1) RCU grace periods per batch
instead of O(N).
Observed on Linux 6.18 with a workload doing unshare(CLONE_NEWNET)
at ~13/sec sustained: cleanup_net() and the netns_wq rescuer kthread
both stuck in xfrm_policy_fini()'s synchronize_rcu(), >300k struct
net accumulated in the cleanup queue, Percpu in /proc/meminfo climbed
to 130+ GB on 256-CPU hosts, and memcg OOMs followed. setup_net and
__put_net counts were balanced, ruling out a refcount leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/hyperv: validate resolution_count and fix WIN8 fallback
A SYNTHVID_RESOLUTION_RESPONSE with resolution_count > 64 walks past
the supported_resolution[SYNTHVID_MAX_RESOLUTION_COUNT] array in the
parse loop. Bound resolution_count against the array size, folded
into the existing zero-check.
When the WIN10 resolution probe fails, the caller in
hyperv_connect_vsp() left hv->screen_*_max / preferred_* unpopulated,
which sets mode_config.max_width / max_height to 0 and makes
drm_internal_framebuffer_create() reject every userspace framebuffer
with -EINVAL. The pre-WIN10 branch had the same gap for
preferred_width / preferred_height. Use a single post-probe fallback
guarded by screen_width_max == 0 so both paths converge on the WIN8
defaults.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/handshake: Take a long-lived file reference at submit
handshake_nl_accept_doit() needs the file pointer backing
req->hr_sk->sk_socket to survive the window between
handshake_req_next() and the subsequent FD_PREPARE() and get_file().
The submit-side sock_hold() does not provide that. sk_refcnt keeps
struct sock alive, but struct socket is owned by sock->file: when
the consumer fputs the last file reference, sock_release() tears
the socket down regardless of any sock_hold.
Add an hr_file pointer to struct handshake_req and acquire an
explicit reference on sock->file during handshake_req_submit().
handshake_complete() and handshake_req_cancel() release the
reference on the completion-bit-winning path.
The submit error path must also release the file reference, but
after rhashtable insertion a concurrent handshake_req_cancel() can
discover the request and race the error path. Gate the error-path
cleanup -- sk_destruct restoration, fput, and request destruction
-- with test_and_set_bit(HANDSHAKE_F_REQ_COMPLETED), the same
serialization handshake_complete() and handshake_req_cancel()
already use. When cancel has already claimed ownership, the submit
error path returns without touching the request; socket teardown
handles final destruction.
The accept-side dereferences are not yet retargeted; that change
comes in the next patch.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Fix eswitch mode block underflow on IPsec acquire SA
mlx5e_xfrm_add_state() handles acquire-flow temporary SAs by allocating
software state and skipping hardware offload setup.
That path jumps to the common success label before taking the eswitch mode
block. After tunnel-mode validation was moved earlier, the common success
label unconditionally calls mlx5_eswitch_unblock_mode(). For acquire SAs,
this decrements esw->offloads.num_block_mode without a matching increment.
Return directly after installing the acquire SA offload handle, so only the
paths that successfully called mlx5_eswitch_block_mode() call the matching
unblock.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: meson: amlogic-a4: fix deadlock issue
Accessing the pinconf-pins sysfs node may deadlock.
pinconf_pins_show() holds pctldev->mutex, and the platform driver
calls pinctrl_find_gpio_range_from_pin(), which tries to acquire
the same mutex again, leading to a deadlock.
Use pinctrl_find_gpio_range_from_pin_nolock() to fix this issue.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_ffa: Bound PARTITION_INFO_GET_REGS copies
The register-based PARTITION_INFO_GET path trusted the firmware-provided
indices when copying partition descriptors into the caller buffer.
Reject inconsistent counts or index progressions so the copy loop cannot
write past the allocated array.
(fixed cur_idx when exactly one descriptor in the first fragment)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Fix infinite loop in layout state revocation
find_one_sb_stid() skips stids whose sc_status is non-zero, but the
SC_TYPE_LAYOUT case in nfsd4_revoke_states() never sets sc_status
before calling nfsd4_close_layout(). The retry loop therefore finds
the same layout stid on every iteration, hanging the revoker
indefinitely.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: Fix out-of-bounds access for twsk in tcp_ao_established_key().
lockdep_sock_is_held() was added in tcp_ao_established_key()
by the cited commit.
It can be called from tcp_v[46]_timewait_ack() with twsk.
Since it does not have sk->sk_lock, the lockdep annotation
results in out-of-bound access.
$ pahole -C tcp_timewait_sock vmlinux | grep size
/* size: 288, cachelines: 5, members: 8 */
$ pahole -C sock vmlinux | grep sk_lock
socket_lock_t sk_lock; /* 440 192 */
Let's not use lockdep_sock_is_held() for TCP_TIME_WAIT.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/gsc: Fix double-free of managed BO in error path
The error path in xe_gsc_init_post_hwconfig() explicitly frees a BO
allocated with xe_managed_bo_create_pin_map() via
xe_bo_unpin_map_no_vm(). Since the managed BO already has a devm
cleanup action registered, this causes a double-free when devm
unwinds during probe failure.
Remove the explicit free and let devm handle it, consistent with
all other xe_managed_bo_create_pin_map() callers.

drm/amdgpu/vce1: Fix VCE 1 firmware size and offsets
The VCPU BO contains the actual FW at an offset, but
it was not calculated into the VCPU BO size.
Subtract this from the FW size to make sure there is

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: fix MLE defragmentation
If either reconf or EPCS multi-link element (MLE) is contained in
a non-transmitted profile, the defragmentation routine is called
with a pointer to the defragmented copy, but the original elements.
This is incorrect for two reasons:
- if the original defragmentation was needed, it will not find the
correct data
- if the original frame is at a higher address, the parsing will
potentially overrun the heap data (though given the layout of
the buffers, only into the new defragmentation buffer, and then
it has to stop and fail once that's filled with copied data.
Fix it by tracking the container along with the pointer and in
doing so also unify the two almost identical defragmentation
routines.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
userfaultfd: gate must_wait writability check on pte_present()
userfaultfd_must_wait() and userfaultfd_huge_must_wait() read the PTE
without taking the page table lock and then apply pte_write() /
huge_pte_write() to it. Those accessors decode bits from the present
encoding only; on a swap or migration entry they read the offset bits that
happen to share the same position and return an undefined result.
The intent of the check is "is this fault still WP-blocked?". A
non-marker swap entry means the page is in transit -- the userfault
context the original fault delivered against is no longer the same, and
the swap-in or migration completion path will re-deliver a fresh fault if
userspace still needs to handle it. Worst case under the current code the
garbage write bit says "wait", and the thread stays asleep until a
UFFDIO_WAKE that may never arrive.
Gate the writability check on pte_present() so the lockless re-check only
inspects present-PTE bits when the entry is actually present. The
non-present, non-marker case returns "don't wait" and lets the fault path
retry.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86: Unconditionally recompute CR8 intercept on PPR update
The TPR_THRESHOLD field in the VMCS is used by VMX to induce VM exits
when the guest's virtual TPR falls under the specified threshold,
allowing KVM to inject previously masked interrupts.
KVM handles these VM exits in handle_tpr_below_threshold().
Commit eb90f3417a0c ("KVM: vmx: speed up TPR below threshold vmexits")
optimized this function by calling apic_update_ppr() instead of raising
KVM_REQ_EVENT. apic_update_ppr() then raises KVM_REQ_EVENT if there is
a pending, deliverable interrupt.
However, if there are no new interrupts pending, apic_update_ppr() does
not issue the request. Thus, kvm_lapic_update_cr8_intercept() and
vmx_update_cr8_intercept() are not called before VM entry, which results
in a high, stale TPR_THRESHOLD. This is problematic due to the following
sentence in 28.2.1.1 "VM-Execution Control Fields" in the SDM:
The following check is performed if the “use TPR shadow” VM-execution
control is 1 and the “virtualize APIC accesses” and “virtual-interrupt
delivery” VM-execution controls are both 0: the value of bits 3:0 of
the TPR threshold VM-execution control field should not be greater
than the value of bits 7:4 of VTPR.
This error condition is typically not observed when KVM runs on a bare
metal system because modern processors support APICv, which enables
virtual-interrupt delivery, and which KVM uses when possible. This
causes the processor to no longer generate TPR-below-threshold exits
and to no longer check TPR_THRESHOLD on entry. However, when running
on older platforms, or under nested virtualization on a hypervisor that
does not support virtual-interrupt delivery and enforces this check
(like Hyper-V) this can cause a VM entry failure with hardware error
0x7, as seen in [1].
Call kvm_lapic_update_cr8_intercept() if apic_update_ppr() does not
find a deliverable interrupt (and thus does not raise KVM_REQ_EVENT).
Remove calls to kvm_lapic_update_cr8_intercept() on paths that end up in
apic_update_ppr(), as they now become redundant. This ensures that any
path that updates the guest's PPR also figures out if KVM needs to wait
for a TPR change (using TPR_THRESHOLD on VMX or CR8 intercepts on SVM).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: CPPC: Suppress UBSAN warning caused by field misuse
The definition of reg->access_width changes depending on the
reg->space_id type. Type ACPI_ADR_SPACE_PLATFORM_COMM uses
access_width to indicate the PCC region, which can result in a UBSAN
if the value is greater than 4.
For example:
UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in drivers/acpi/cppc_acpi.c:1090:9
shift exponent 32 is too large for 32-bit type 'int'
CPU: 61 UID: 0 PID: 1220 Comm: (udev-worker) Not tainted 7.0.10-201.fc44.aarch64 #1 PREEMPT(lazy)

Lets fix this by validating the region type, as well as whether
access_width has a value. Then since we are returning bit_width
directly for ACPI_ADR_SPACE_PLATFORM_COMM, drop the code correcting
the size.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: NFIT: core: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference
After commit 9b311b7313d6 ("ACPI: NFIT: Install Notify() handler before
getting NFIT table"), acpi_nfit_probe() installs an ACPI notify handler
for the NFIT device before checking the presence of the NFIT table. If
that table is not there, 0 is returned without allocating the acpi_desc
object and setting the driver data pointer of the NFIT device. If the
platform firmware triggers an NFIT_NOTIFY_UC_MEMORY_ERROR notification
on the NFIT device at that point, acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() will
dereference a NULL pointer.
Prevent that from occurring by adding an acpi_desc check against NULL
to acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: NFIT: core: Fix acpi_nfit_init() error cleanup
If acpi_nfit_init() fails after adding the acpi_desc object to the
acpi_descs list, that object is never removed from that list because
the acpi_nfit_shutdown() devm action is not added for the NFIT device
in that case. Next, the acpi_nfit_init() failure causes
acpi_nfit_probe() to fail, the acpi_desc object is freed, and a
dangling pointer is left behind in the acpi_descs. Any subsequent
ACPI Machine Check Exception will trigger nfit_handle_mce() which
iterates over acpi_descs and so a use-after-free will occur.
Moreover, if acpi_nfit_probe() returns 0 after installing a notify
handler for the NFIT device and without allocating the acpi_desc
object and setting the NFIT device's driver data pointer, the
acpi_desc object will be allocated by acpi_nfit_update_notify()
and acpi_nfit_init() will be called to initialize it. Regardless
of whether or not acpi_nfit_init() fails in that case, the
acpi_nfit_shutdown() devm action is not added for the NFIT device
and acpi_desc is never removed from the acpi_descs list. If the
acpi_desc object is freed subsequently on driver removal, any
subsequent ACPI MCE will lead to a use-after-free like in the
previous case.
To address the first issue mentioned above, make acpi_nfit_probe()
call acpi_nfit_shutdown() directly on acpi_nfit_init() failures and
to address the other one, add a remove callback to the driver and
make it call acpi_nfit_shutdown(). Also, since it is now possible to
pass NULL to acpi_nfit_shutdown() or the acpi_desc object passed to it
may not have been initialized, add checks against NULL for acpi_desc and
its nvdimm_bus field to that function and make acpi_nfit_unregister()
clear the latter after unregistering the NVDIMM bus.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rust: block: fix GenDisk cleanup paths
GenDiskBuilder::build() still has fallible work after
__blk_mq_alloc_disk(), but its error path only recovers the
foreign queue data. That leaks the temporary gendisk and
request_queue until later teardown. If the caller moved the last
Arc<TagSet<T>> into build(), the leaked queue can retain blk-mq
state after the tag set is dropped.
Fix the pre-registration failure path by dropping the temporary
gendisk reference with put_disk() before recovering queue_data,
so disk_release() can tear down the owned queue.
Also pair GenDisk::drop() with put_disk() after del_gendisk().
Once a Rust GenDisk has been added with device_add_disk(),
del_gendisk() only unregisters it; the final gendisk reference
still has to be dropped to complete the release path.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Support for hardening against JIT spraying
The BPF JIT allocator packs many small programs into larger executable
allocations and reuses space within those allocations as programs are
loaded and freed. When fresh code is written into space that a previous
program occupied, an indirect jump into the new program can reuse a branch
prediction left behind by the old one.
Flush the indirect branch predictors before reusing JIT memory so that
indirect jumps into a newly written program don't reuse predictions from an
old program that occupied the same space.
Introduce bpf_arch_pred_flush_enabled static key and bpf_arch_pred_flush
static call for flushing the branch predictors on JIT memory reuse.
Architectures that need a flush, can update it to a predictor flush
function. By default, its a NOP and does not emit any CALL.
Allocations larger than a pack are not covered by this flush. That is safe
because cBPF programs (the unprivileged attack surface) are bounded well
below a pack size. Issue a warning if this assumption is ever violated
while the flush is active.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/bugs: Enable IBPB flush on BPF JIT allocation
Enable hardening against JIT spraying when Spectre-v2 mitigations are in
use. Specifically, issue an IBPB flush on BPF JIT memory reuse. Skip
enabling the IBPB flush if the BPF dispatcher is already using a retpoline
sequence.
This hardening applies only when BPF-JIT is in use. Guard the enabling
under CONFIG_BPF_JIT so that bugs.c still builds with CONFIG_BPF_JIT=n.

wifi: rtw89: correct drop logic for malformed AMPDU frames
The previous commit aims to fix issue caused by malformed AMPDU frames.
But the drop logic fails to deal with the first AMPDU packet paired with
certain range of sequence number, and leads to unexpected packet drop.
It is more likely to encounter this failure when there are busy traffic
during rekey process and could lead to disconnection from the AP.
Fix this by adding a initial state judgement and only reset status
during pairwise rekey.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: accel: bmc150: clamp the device-reported FIFO frame count
__bmc150_accel_fifo_flush() copies the number of samples the device
reports in its hardware FIFO into an on-stack buffer
u16 buffer[BMC150_ACCEL_FIFO_LENGTH * 3];
which is sized for at most BMC150_ACCEL_FIFO_LENGTH (32) samples. The
frame count is read from the FIFO_STATUS register and only masked to its
7 valid bits:
count = val & 0x7F;
so it can be 0..127. The only other limit applied to it is the optional
caller-supplied sample budget:
if (samples && count > samples)
count = samples;
which does not constrain count on the flush-all path (samples == 0), and
leaves it well above 32 whenever samples is larger. count samples are
then transferred into buffer[]:
bmc150_accel_fifo_transfer(data, (u8 *)buffer, count);
bmc150_accel_fifo_transfer() reads count * 6 bytes through regmap, so a
malfunctioning, malicious or counterfeit accelerometer (or an attacker
tampering with the I2C/SPI bus) that reports up to 127 frames writes up
to 762 bytes into the 192-byte buffer: a stack out-of-bounds write of up
to 570 bytes that clobbers the stack canary, saved registers and the
return address.
Clamp count to BMC150_ACCEL_FIFO_LENGTH, the number of samples buffer[]
is sized for, before the transfer, mirroring the watermark clamp already
done in bmc150_accel_set_watermark(). A well-formed flush reports at most
BMC150_ACCEL_FIFO_LENGTH frames, so legitimate devices are unaffected.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: accel: kxsd9: fix runtime PM imbalance on write_raw() error
kxsd9_write_raw() takes a runtime PM reference with pm_runtime_get_sync()
but returns -EINVAL directly when a scale with a non-zero integer part is
requested, skipping the matching pm_runtime_put_autosuspend(). This leaks
a runtime PM usage-counter reference on every such write, after which the
device can no longer autosuspend.
Set the error code and fall through to the existing put instead of
returning early.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: adc: ad_sigma_delta: fix clear_pending_event for registerless devices
ad_sigma_delta_clear_pending_event() falls through to the status register
read path for devices with has_registers = false and no rdy_gpiod. For
such devices, ad_sd_read_reg() skips the address byte entirely and clocks
raw MISO bytes with no address phase — making it byte-for-byte identical
to reading conversion data. If a pending conversion result is present,
this partially consumes it and corrupts the data stream for the subsequent
ad_sd_read_reg() call in ad_sigma_delta_single_conversion().
Furthermore, with num_resetclks = 0 on these devices, data_read_len
evaluates to 0. If the clocked byte has bit 7 clear, pending_event is set
and the code attempts memset(data + 2, 0xff, 0 - 1), overflowing to
SIZE_MAX and corrupting the heap.
Fix by returning 0 immediately when neither rdy_gpiod nor has_registers
is set. This is safe for all current registerless devices: ad7191 and
ad7780 (with powerdown GPIO) are reset between conversions by CS
deassertion, so there is no stale result to drain; ad7780 (without
powerdown GPIO) and max11205 are continuously-converting and cycle ~DRDY
at the output data rate regardless of whether the previous result was
read, so the next falling edge fires naturally.
A future registerless device that holds ~DRDY asserted until data is read
would be broken by this early return and would require either
num_resetclks set or a rdy-gpio.
The same heap corruption is reachable on any device with rdy_gpiod set
but num_resetclks = 0: if the GPIO indicates a pending event, the drain
path executes memset(data + 2, 0xff, 0 - 1) regardless of has_registers.
Add an explicit data_read_len == 0 guard after the pending event check;
the stale result is then consumed by the first ad_sd_read_reg() call in
ad_sigma_delta_single_conversion().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: adc: ad_sigma_delta: fix CS held asserted and state leaks
In ad_sigma_delta_single_conversion(), set_mode(AD_SD_MODE_IDLE) and
disable_one() were called from the out: block while keep_cs_asserted
was still true. This caused any SPI transfer issued by those callbacks
to carry cs_change=1, leaving CS permanently asserted after the
conversion. Fix by moving both calls into the out_unlock: block, after
keep_cs_asserted is cleared, matching the pattern already used in
ad_sd_calibrate().
In the error path of ad_sd_buffer_postenable(), if an operation fails
after set_mode(AD_SD_MODE_CONTINUOUS) has already succeeded (e.g.
spi_offload_trigger_enable()), the device is left in continuous
conversion mode with CS physically asserted. Additionally,
bus_locked remaining true after spi_bus_unlock() causes subsequent
SPI operations to call spi_sync_locked() without the bus lock actually
held, allowing concurrent SPI access.
Fix the error path by clearing keep_cs_asserted first, then calling
set_mode(AD_SD_MODE_IDLE) to revert the device mode and deassert CS,
then clearing bus_locked before releasing the bus.
For devices that implement neither set_mode nor disable_one (such as
MAX11205, which has no physical CS pin), no SPI transfer is issued
during cleanup and the cs_change flag has no effect on any physical
line.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: adc: lpc32xx: Initialize completion before requesting IRQ
In the report from Jaeyoung Chung:
"lpc32xx_adc_probe() in drivers/iio/adc/lpc32xx_adc.c registers its
interrupt handler with devm_request_irq() before it initializes
st->completion with init_completion(). If an interrupt arrives after
devm_request_irq() and before init_completion(), the handler calls
complete() on an uninitialized completion, causing a kernel panic.
The probe path, in lpc32xx_adc_probe():
iodev = devm_iio_device_alloc(&pdev->dev, sizeof(*st)); /* st kzalloc-zeroed */
...
retval = devm_request_irq(&pdev->dev, irq, lpc32xx_adc_isr, 0,
LPC32XXAD_NAME, st); /* register handler */
...
init_completion(&st->completion); /* initialize completion */
lpc32xx_adc_isr() calls complete():
complete(&st->completion);
If the device raises an interrupt before init_completion() runs,
complete() acquires the uninitialized wait.lock and walks the zeroed
task_list in swake_up_locked(). The zeroed task_list makes list_empty()
return false, so swake_up_locked() dereferences a NULL list entry,
triggering a KASAN wild-memory-access."
Fix the chance of a spurious IRQ causing an uninitialized pointer
dereference by moving init_completion() above devm_request_irq().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: adc: ti-ads1119: fix PM reference leak in buffer preenable
ads1119_triggered_buffer_preenable() resumes the device with
pm_runtime_resume_and_get() before starting a conversion.
If i2c_smbus_write_byte() fails, the function returns the error directly
and leaves the runtime PM usage counter elevated. The matching
postdisable callback is not called when preenable fails, so the reference
is leaked and the device may remain runtime-active indefinitely.
Store the I2C transfer result in ret and drop the runtime PM reference on
failure before returning the error.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: buffer: hw-consumer: free scan_mask on buffer release
The scan_mask lifetime changed in commit 9a2e1233d38c ("iio: buffer:
hw-consumer: remove redundant scan_mask flexible array").
Before that change, the scan mask storage was embedded in struct
hw_consumer_buffer, so iio_hw_buf_release() could free the whole
allocation with a single kfree(hw_buf).
That commit moved the scan mask to a separate bitmap_zalloc() allocation
stored in buffer.scan_mask, but left iio_hw_buf_release() unchanged.
Free the scan mask in iio_hw_buf_release() before freeing the buffer
wrapper.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: chemical: scd30: Cleanup initializations and fix sign-extension bug
Include linux/bitfield.h for FIELD_GET().
Create new macros for bit manipulation in combination with manual bit
manipulation being replaced with FIELD_GET().
The current variable declaration and initializations are barely readable
and use comma separations across multiple lines. Refactor the
initializations so that mantissa and exp have separate declarations and
sign gets initialized later.
In addition (and due to the nature of the cleanup), fix a sign-extension
bug where, float32 would get bitwise anded with ~BIT(31)
(which is 0xFFFFFFFF7FFFFFFF) which corrupted the exponent.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: event: Fix event FIFO reset race
`iio_event_getfd()` creates the event file descriptor with
`anon_inode_getfd()`, which allocates a new fd, creates the anonymous
file and installs it in the process fd table before returning to the
caller.
The IIO code resets the event FIFO after `anon_inode_getfd()` has returned,
but before `IIO_GET_EVENT_FD_IOCTL` has copied the fd number to userspace.
But since fd tables are shared between threads, another thread can guess
the newly allocated fd number and issue a `read()` on it as soon as the fd
has been installed.
This means the `kfifo_to_user()` in `iio_event_chrdev_read()` can run in
parallel with the `kfifo_reset_out()` in `iio_event_getfd()`.
The kfifo documentation says that `kfifo_reset_out()` is only safe when it
is called from the reader thread and there is only one concurrent reader.
Otherwise it is dangerous and must be handled in the same way as
`kfifo_reset()`.
If that happens, `kfifo_to_user()` can advance the FIFO `out` index based
on state from before the reset, after the reset has already moved the `out`
index to the current `in` index. That can leave the FIFO with an `out`
index past the `in` index. A later `read()` can then see an underflowed
FIFO length and copy more data than the event FIFO buffer contains. This
can result in an out-of-bounds read and leak adjacent kernel memory to
userspace.
Move the FIFO reset before `anon_inode_getfd()`. At that point the event fd is
marked busy, but the new fd has not been installed yet, so userspace cannot
access it while the FIFO is reset.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: gyro: bmg160: bail out when bandwidth/filter is not in table
bmg160_get_filter() walks bmg160_samp_freq_table[] looking for the entry
matching the bw_bits value read from the chip:
for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(bmg160_samp_freq_table); ++i) {
if (bmg160_samp_freq_table[i].bw_bits == bw_bits)
break;
}
*val = bmg160_samp_freq_table[i].filter;
If no entry matches, i ends up equal to the array size and the next line
reads one slot past the end. bmg160_set_filter() has the same shape, driven
by 'val' instead of bw_bits.
smatch flags both:
drivers/iio/gyro/bmg160_core.c:204 bmg160_get_filter() error:
buffer overflow 'bmg160_samp_freq_table' 7 <= 7
drivers/iio/gyro/bmg160_core.c:222 bmg160_set_filter() error:
buffer overflow 'bmg160_samp_freq_table' 7 <= 7
Return -EINVAL when no entry matches.
The set_filter() path is reachable from userspace via the sysfs
in_anglvel_filter_low_pass_3db_frequency interface, so userspace can
trivially trigger the out-of-bounds read with a value that is not in
bmg160_samp_freq_table[].filter.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: light: gp2ap002: fix runtime PM leak on read error
gp2ap002_read_raw() calls pm_runtime_get_sync() before reading the
lux value, but if gp2ap002_get_lux() fails, it returns directly. This
skips the pm_runtime_put_autosuspend() call at the "out" label,
permanently leaking a runtime PM reference and preventing the device
from autosuspending.
Replace the direct return with a "goto out" to ensure the reference
is properly dropped on the error path.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: pressure: mpl115: fix runtime PM leak on read error
mpl115_read_raw() takes a runtime PM reference with pm_runtime_get_sync()
before reading the processed pressure or raw temperature, but on the read
error path it returns without calling pm_runtime_put_autosuspend(). Each
failed read therefore leaks a runtime PM reference and prevents the device
from autosuspending.
Drop the reference before checking the return value so both the success
and error paths are balanced.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: temperature: tmp006: use devm_iio_trigger_register
tmp006_probe() allocates the DRDY trigger with devm_iio_trigger_alloc()
but registers it with plain iio_trigger_register(). The driver has no
.remove() callback, so on module unload the trigger stays in the global
trigger list while its memory is freed by devm, leaving a dangling
entry.
Switch to devm_iio_trigger_register() so the registration is undone in
the same devm scope as the allocation.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usx2y: us144mkii: fix work UAF on disconnect
tascam_disconnect() cancels capture_work and midi_in_work before
usb_kill_anchored_urbs() kills the capture/MIDI-in URBs. Those URBs
self-resubmit, and their completion handlers reschedule the work.
A URB that completes in the small window between cancel_work_sync() and
usb_kill_anchored_urbs() therefore re-arms the work after its only
cancel. Nothing cancels it again before snd_card_free() frees the
card-private tascam structure, so the work handler then runs on freed
memory.
Kill the anchored URBs before cancelling the work; once the work is
cancelled no remaining URB can complete to re-arm it.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: virtio: Validate control metadata from the device
virtio-snd control handling trusts the device-provided control type and
value count returned by the device.
That metadata is then used directly to index g_v2a_type_map[] in
virtsnd_kctl_info(), and to size loops and memcpy() operations in
virtsnd_kctl_get() and virtsnd_kctl_put() against fixed-size
virtio_snd_ctl_value and snd_ctl_elem_value arrays.
A buggy or malicious device can therefore trigger out-of-bounds access by
advertising an invalid control type or an oversized value count.
Validate control type and count once in virtsnd_kctl_parse_cfg(), before
querying enumerated items or exposing the control to ALSA.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: ymfpci: check snd_ctl_new1() return value
snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails.
snd_ymfpci_create_spdif_controls() does not check the return value
before dereferencing kctl->id.device, which can lead to a NULL pointer
dereference.
Add NULL checks after snd_ctl_new1() calls and return -ENOMEM if any
fails.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: aoa: check snd_ctl_new1() return value
snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails. In
layout.c, the function does not check the return value before
dereferencing ctl->id.name or passing to aoa_snd_ctl_add(), which can
lead to a NULL pointer dereference.
Add NULL checks after snd_ctl_new1() calls and return early if any
fails.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: caiaq: fix out-of-bounds read in the Traktor Kontrol S4 input parser
snd_usb_caiaq_tks4_dispatch() decodes the Traktor Kontrol S4 input
stream in fixed 16-byte (TKS4_MSGBLOCK_SIZE) message blocks. On every
iteration it advances buf and subtracts the block size while looping on
"while (len)".
len is urb->actual_length. That value is supplied by the device and is
not guaranteed to be a multiple of 16. When a final short block leaves
len between 1 and 15, the loop runs once more, reads up to buf[15], and
then does "len -= TKS4_MSGBLOCK_SIZE". As len is unsigned this underflows
to a huge value. The loop then keeps iterating and walking buf far past
the end of the 512-byte ep4_in_buf, reading out of bounds until a bogus
block id happens to be hit.
Iterate only while a full message block is available. This stops the
unsigned underflow and silently drops any trailing partial block, which
carries no complete control value anyway.
The sibling endpoint-4 parsers are not affected. The Traktor Kontrol X1
and Maschine arms in snd_usb_caiaq_ep4_reply_dispatch() floor
urb->actual_length before dispatching.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: cmipci: check snd_ctl_new1() return value
snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails.
snd_cmipci_spdif_controls() does not check the return value before
dereferencing kctl->id.device, which can lead to a NULL pointer
dereference.
Add NULL checks after snd_ctl_new1() calls and return -ENOMEM if any
fails.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: compress: Fix task creation error unwind
snd_compr_task_new() allocates the driver task before validating the
returned DMA buffers and reserving file descriptors. When either of
those later steps fails, the core frees its task wrapper and DMA-buffer
references without calling the driver's task_free() callback. Any
driver resources allocated by task_create() are therefore leaked.
The dual-fd allocation path also jumps to cleanup without storing the
negative get_unused_fd_flags() result in retval. Since retval still
contains the successful task_create() return value, TASK_CREATE can
incorrectly report success although the task was discarded.
Preserve the fd allocation errors and call task_free() when failure
occurs after a successful task_create() callback.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: es1938: check snd_ctl_new1() return value
snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails.
snd_es1938_mixer() does not check the return value before dereferencing
the pointer, which can lead to a NULL pointer dereference.
Add a NULL check after snd_ctl_new1() and return -ENOMEM if it fails.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: firewire: isight: bound the sample count to the packet payload
isight_packet() takes the frame count from the device iso packet and
checks it only against the device claimed iso length.
count = be32_to_cpu(payload->sample_count);
if (likely(count <= (length - 16) / 4))
isight_samples(isight, payload->samples, count);
length is the iso header data_length. It can be up to 0xffff. So the
gate allows a count up to about 16379. isight_samples() then copies
count frames out of payload->samples into the PCM DMA buffer.
payload->samples holds only 2 * MAX_FRAMES_PER_PACKET values. The
device multiplexes two samples per frame. A count past
MAX_FRAMES_PER_PACKET reads past the payload. A count past the buffer
size writes past runtime->dma_area. The smallest PCM buffer is larger
than MAX_FRAMES_PER_PACKET. Bounding the count to MAX_FRAMES_PER_PACKET
keeps both the read and the write in range.
A malicious or faulty Apple iSight on the FireWire bus reaches this
during a normal capture.
Add the MAX_FRAMES_PER_PACKET bound to the gate.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: gus: check snd_ctl_new1() return value
snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails.
snd_gf1_pcm_volume_control() does not check the return value before
dereferencing kctl->id.index, which can lead to a NULL pointer
dereference.
Add a NULL check after snd_ctl_new1() and return -ENOMEM if it fails.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: hda/cs35l41: Fix firmware load work teardown
cs35l41_hda creates ALSA controls whose private data points at the
cs35l41_hda object. The firmware load control can also queue
fw_load_work.
Those controls are not removed on component unbind, and device remove
only cancels fw_load_work through cs35l41_remove_dsp(). That helper is
skipped when halo_initialized is false. With firmware_autostart
disabled, a firmware load can be requested before the DSP has been
initialized. If the component or device is removed before the queued
work runs, the worker can run after teardown and dereference driver
state that is no longer valid.
Track the created controls and remove them on unbind so no new control
callback can reach the driver data or queue more work. Then cancel
fw_load_work to drain any request that was already queued. Also cancel
the work unconditionally during device remove before runtime PM teardown.
