| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
audit: fix potential use-after-free in audit_del_rule()
`audit_del_rule()` destroys `e->rule.exe` via `audit_remove_mark_rule()`
before unlinking the rule from RCU-visible filter lists and waiting for a
grace period. Concurrent readers in `audit_filter()` and
`audit_filter_rules()` still dereference `e->rule.exe`, while the fsnotify
mark can be freed on an independent lifetime path. This creates a
use-after-free window during rule deletion.
Fix this by unlinking the rule from the RCU-visible lists and invoking
`synchronize_rcu()` before calling `audit_remove_mark_rule()` (and other
rule removal helpers). This ensures that all existing RCU readers have
exited the critical section before any underlying resources are destroyed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: mgmt: fix UAF in pair command cancellation
The pairing completion and authentication failure callbacks look up the
pending MGMT_OP_PAIR_DEVICE command by walking hdev->mgmt_pending. The
lookup returned a command that was still linked on the shared pending list,
without keeping mgmt_pending_lock held for the later dereference and
removal.
A concurrent MGMT_OP_CANCEL_PAIR_DEVICE request can remove and free the
same pending command before the callback uses it. The reverse race is also
possible when cancel_pair_device() gets a command from pending_find() and a
callback removes it before the cancel path dereferences it. This can lead
to a use-after-free and a second list_del().
Make the pairing lookup helpers transfer ownership of the pending command
by removing it from hdev->mgmt_pending while holding mgmt_pending_lock.
The callbacks and cancel path then complete the command and free it
directly, so racing paths cannot find or free the same command again. Take
a temporary hci_conn reference in cancel_pair_device() because the command
completion drops the reference stored in the pending command. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: HIDP: validate numbered report payloads
When hidp_get_raw_report() waits for a numbered report,
hidp_process_data() compares the expected report number with skb->data[0].
A connected HIDP peer can reply with only a DATA transaction header,
leaving the skb empty after the header is removed.
KMSAN reports an uninitialized-value use in hidp_session_run(), with the
value originating in __alloc_skb() through vhci_write(). The transaction
header checks remove the empty-frame reports, but this report remains until
the payload check is added.
The comparison can also consume a peer-controlled byte beyond the declared
L2CAP PDU. A DATA | FEATURE response followed by an extra 0x01 byte made
the current code accept that byte as report ID 1 and complete
HIDIOCGFEATURE with a zero-byte result. With this change the malformed
response is rejected with -EIO, while a subsequent valid response still
succeeds.
Require a payload byte before comparing a numbered report ID. Unnumbered
reports continue to accept an empty payload. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fou: Fix use-after-free in fou_create()
fou_create() publishes struct fou through sk_user_data before adding the
new FOU port to the per-netns list. If fou_add_to_port_list() fails,
the error path frees fou while it is still reachable through
sk_user_data. A concurrent receive can then dereference the freed
object in fou_from_sock().
This ordering issue was previously noted in the linked discussion.
The failure is reachable when local port 0 is requested. Each socket
binds to a different ephemeral port, but fou_cfg_cmp() compares the
requested port 0 and reports -EALREADY once an entry already exists.
Release the tunnel socket before freeing fou so sk_user_data is cleared
first, and defer reclamation with kfree_rcu() to protect concurrent RCU
readers. This matches the lifetime handling in fou_release(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix socket use-after-free during link group termination
__smc_lgr_terminate() drops conns_lock after finding a connection in
lgr->conns_all, but before taking a reference on its socket. The connection
is embedded in the socket, and its registration reference protects it only
while the connection remains in the tree.
A concurrent close can unregister the connection and drop that reference,
freeing the socket before the termination worker reaches sock_hold().
The race is reachable when close overlaps link group termination.
Local stress testing reproduced the use-after-free and KASAN reported:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __smc_lgr_terminate.part.0 [smc]
Write of size 4 by task kworker/3:3
Workqueue: events smc_lgr_terminate_work [smc]
__smc_lgr_terminate.part.0 [smc]
The socket was allocated by smc_create(), freed through
slab_free_after_rcu_debug(), and was followed by:
refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.
__smc_lgr_terminate.part.0 [smc]
Take the socket reference while conns_lock still protects the tree entry.
The unregister path then cannot drop the last reference until termination
has finished using the socket. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ipset: do not update comments from kernel-side hash adds
mtype_resize() copies comment pointers with memcpy(), not the comment
objects themselves. During the window after an entry has been copied but
before the table swap and backlog replay, the old table is still
published for packet-side updates while the replacement-table entry
already holds the same ip_set_comment_rcu pointer.
If xt_SET --add-set ... --exist hits that old entry in this window,
mtype_add() calls ip_set_init_comment() even though packet-side adds
carry no comment payload. That call frees the shared comment through the
old entry, so the replacement-table entry now holds a stale pointer.
When the queued add is replayed on the new table, mtype_add() calls
ip_set_init_comment() again and strlen() dereferences the stale pointer.
Fix this in mtype_add() by skipping ip_set_init_comment() when
ext->target marks a packet-side add. Userspace adds still update
comments, while packet-side adds can no longer free comment storage
shared with a resize copy. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: avoid use-after-free in poll trace queue dumps
TIPC socket tracepoints dump queue state through tipc_sk_dump(). Most
queue-dump callsites already serialize that walk under the socket lock or
sk->sk_lock.slock, but tipc_poll() calls trace_tipc_sk_poll(...,
TIPC_DUMP_ALL, ...) without holding either lock.
That lets the poll trace path reach tipc_list_dump() and backlog head/tail
dumping while another context dequeues and frees an skb, leaving the trace
helper dereferencing a stale queue entry.
Stop the unlocked poll trace site from requesting queue dumps. Other queue
dump trace callsites keep their existing output under the locking they
already provide, while poll still emits the event itself without walking
live queue members from an unlocked context. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: fix tid_tx use-after-free on BA session stop
ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb() hands tid_tx to kfree_rcu() through
ieee80211_remove_tid_tx(), and then reads tid_tx->ndp after dropping
sta->lock:
ieee80211_remove_tid_tx(sta, tid); /* kfree_rcu(tid_tx, rcu_head) */
...
spin_unlock_bh(&sta->lock);
if (start_txq)
ieee80211_agg_start_txq(sta, tid, false);
if (send_delba)
ieee80211_send_delba(..., tid_tx->ndp);
That read is not covered by an RCU read-side critical section, and it runs
in preemptible process context: both callers hold the wiphy mutex, reaching
it either from the ieee80211_ba_session_work() wiphy work or from
ieee80211_sta_tear_down_BA_sessions() during station teardown.
Softirqs can run in that window too, both from the local_bh_enable() that
ends ieee80211_agg_start_txq() and from any interrupt exit, so the RCU
callback can free tid_tx before the read.
Driving the function from a test module with the grace period forced into
that window, KASAN reports the read, and the free arrives on the ordinary
RCU softirq path:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in ieee80211_stop_tx_ba_cb+0x3cd/0x400

send_delba is only set when tx_stop is set, which happens for
AGG_STOP_LOCAL_REQUEST alone, so this is reached on local teardown -
session idle timeout, PTK rekey, suspend, HW reconfig - and not from a
peer's DELBA.
Read ndp into a local before the session is freed, while sta->lock is still
held. tid_tx->ndp has a single writer, in
ieee80211_tx_ba_session_handle_start(), which cannot run concurrently here:
both paths are serialised by the wiphy mutex, and the session is already
marked HT_AGG_STATE_STOPPING at this point. tid_tx->ndp is also the only
tid_tx dereference left after ieee80211_remove_tid_tx() in this function.
[move/change the comment a bit to be more general not just on ndp,
initialize ndp directly] |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/page_reporting: use system_freezable_wq to fix UAF during suspend
During PM freeze (e.g. S3 suspend or S4 hibernation), device drivers like
virtio_balloon reset their underlying virtio devices and delete their
virtqueues via vdev->config->del_vqs().
However, page reporting work (page_reporting_process) was scheduled on the
global system_wq. Because system_wq lacks the WQ_FREEZABLE flag, the PM
freezer skips it, leaving page_reporting_process active during suspend.
If pages are freed into the buddy allocator while suspending (for example,
when core MM invokes the balloon shrinker during S4 hibernation image
saving), page reporting triggers virtballoon_free_page_report() on deleted
virtqueues, resulting in a Use-After-Free / General Protection Fault:
[ 196.795226] general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xaa1436fe70dae6df: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI
[ 196.825967] Workqueue: events page_reporting_process
[ 196.831038] RIP: 0010:virtqueue_add_split+0x233/0x4c0 [virtio_ring]
[ 196.927073] virtballoon_free_page_report+0x3a/0xe0 [virtio_balloon]
[ 196.946943] page_reporting_process+0x370/0x4f0
Fix this by switching page reporting work to system_freezable_wq. This
ensures that the PM freezer pauses page_reporting_process before device
drivers destroy their reporting virtqueues. Because the reporting worker
is frozen, memory reclamation/freeing (e.g. via shrinker execution) can
safely return pages to MM during freeze without triggering unfrozen
reporting work on deleted virtqueues.
This aligns with the driver's existing design. The comment in
virtballoon_freeze() states:
/*
* The workqueue is already frozen by the PM core before this
* function is called.
*/
Testing:
I have verified these fixes using Google’s virtualization infrastructure
by running continuous suspend/resume iterations (40+ cycles) while
churning memory using stress-ng (`stress-ng --vm 4 --vm-bytes 60%
--timeout 1`) to constantly create free pages for the buddy allocator. We
also set the `page_reporting_order` parameter to 0 to make the page
reporting worker highly sensitive, forcing it to pick up any 4K free
pages. This confirmed that the UAF crashes are no longer reproducible. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: stop fast-leave after deleting a port group
br_multicast_leave_group() iterates mp->ports with pp = &p->next in
its fast-leave path. After br_multicast_del_pg() removes p,
continuing the loop advances pp through the deleted entry.
If multicast-to-unicast was enabled, the bridge can hold multiple port
groups for the same port and group with different source MAC
addresses. Once multicast-to-unicast is disabled,
br_port_group_equal() matches those entries by port only. A fast leave
can then delete one entry and continue from its stale next pointer,
leaving mp->ports pointing at a deleted port group.
Fast leave only needs to remove one matching port group. Break after
br_multicast_del_pg() so the loop stops before dereferencing the
removed entry. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Check return value of __register_event() in trace_module_add_events()
trace_module_add_events() ignores the return value of __register_event()
and unconditionally calls __add_event_to_tracers() for each event.
If __register_event() fails (for example, if event_init() fails), the
trace_event_call is not added to ftrace_events list, but
__add_event_to_tracers() still creates a trace_event_file pointing to it.
If module loading subsequently fails and module memory is freed, tracing
state retains a stale trace_event_call pointer in trace_event_file,
leading to a use-after-free when tracefs or tracing subsystem operations
are later executed.
Fix this by checking the return value of __register_event() and only
calling __add_event_to_tracers() if event registration succeeded. |

net: openvswitch: fix potential UAF on meter attach failure
While attaching a newly created meter attach_meter() function makes
the new meter visible to other CPUs but can still fail afterwards.
On failure, it detaches the meter back and returns an error.
However, this is an unexpected behavior for the ovs_meter_cmd_set()
that uses a plain kfree(meter) on attach failure without waiting for
RCU readers to stop using it, assuming it was never visible.
This is never a problem for ovs-vswitchd as it always creates meters
before creating any flows that use them. But the UAF can be triggered
with a custom application using uAPI:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in ovs_meter_execute (net/openvswitch/meter.c:653)

Fix that by making sure attach_meter() doesn't make the meter visible
until all the checks are done and the function can't fail anymore.
This also makes sure the "hash" value is calculated after the potential
re-sizing of the table.

drm/amd/pm: fix pptable use-after-free
amdgpu_dpm_get_pp_table() returns a pointer to a driver-owned power table
after dropping adev->pm.mutex. The sysfs path then copies from that pointer.
A concurrent pp_table write can replace and free the allocation during the
copy, causing a use-after-free.
Change the DPM interface to copy into caller-provided storage while the mutex
is held. Keep the size-only query for attribute discovery without exposing
the driver-owned pointer.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: serialize kernel accept preallocation with socket teardown
rxrpc_kernel_charge_accept() reads rx->backlog without any
socket/backlog synchronization and passes that raw pointer into
rxrpc_service_prealloc_one(). A concurrent rxrpc_discard_prealloc()
sets rx->backlog = NULL and frees the backlog rings, so a kernel
preallocation worker can keep using a freed struct rxrpc_backlog
while updating *_backlog_head/tail and array slots.
Serialize the state check and backlog lookup with the socket lock,
and reject kernel preallocation once teardown has disabled
listening or discarded the service backlog. |

dlm: fix add msg handle in send_queue ordered
In a benchmark scenario triggering a lot of requests that triggers a lot
of DLM messages on the network it can be that the mh->seq is not ordered
according the oldest seq number. This ordering is required by
dlm_receive_ack as "before(mh->seq, seq)" will stop to check for older
sequence numbers that are ordered in the tail of "node->send_queue".
The side effects of not having it correct ordered regarding
"before(mh->seq, seq)" are refcounting issues and use-after free.
I only was able to reproduce this issue in a experimental DLM branch
and a user space DLM benchmark that uses io_uring. After changing this I
don't experienced any refcounting with the sending buffer issues anymore. |

iommu/vt-d: Fix RB-tree corruption in probe error path
The info->node RB-tree member is zero-initialized via kzalloc. If
a device does not support ATS, the device_rbtree_insert() call is
skipped. If a subsequent probe step fails, the error path jumps to
device_rbtree_remove(), which misinterprets the zeroed node as
a tree root and corrupts the device RB-tree.
Fix this by explicitly initializing the RB-node as empty using
RB_CLEAR_NODE() during initialization and guarding the removal with
RB_EMPTY_NODE(). |

dmaengine: Fix possible use after free
In dma_release_channel(), check chan->device->privatecnt after call
dma_chan_put(). However, dma_chan_put() call dma_device_put() which could
release the last reference of the device if the DMA provider is already
gone and hence free it.
Fixes it by moving dma_chan_put() after the check. |
