| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: htc_hst: free skb in ath9k_htc_rx_msg() if there is no callback function
It is stated that ath9k_htc_rx_msg() either frees the provided skb or
passes its management to another callback function. However, the skb is
not freed in case there is no another callback function, and Syzkaller was
able to cause a memory leak. Also minor comment fix.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
backlight: led-bl: Add devlink to supplier LEDs
LED Backlight is a consumer of one or multiple LED class devices, but
devlink is currently unable to create correct supplier-producer links when
the supplier is a class device. It creates instead a link where the
supplier is the parent of the expected device.
One consequence is that removal order is not correctly enforced.
Issues happen for example with the following sections in a device tree
overlay:
// An LED driver chip
pca9632@62 {
compatible = "nxp,pca9632";
reg = <0x62>;
// ...
addon_led_pwm: led-pwm@3 {
reg = <3>;
label = "addon:led:pwm";
};
};
backlight-addon {
compatible = "led-backlight";
leds = <&addon_led_pwm>;
brightness-levels = <255>;
default-brightness-level = <255>;
};
In this example, the devlink should be created between the backlight-addon
(consumer) and the pca9632@62 (supplier). Instead it is created between the
backlight-addon (consumer) and the parent of the pca9632@62, which is
typically the I2C bus adapter.
On removal of the above overlay, the LED driver can be removed before the
backlight device, resulting in:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000010
...
Call trace:
led_put+0xe0/0x140
devm_led_release+0x6c/0x98
Another way to reproduce the bug without any device tree overlays is
unbinding the LED class device (pca9632@62) before unbinding the consumer
(backlight-addon):
echo 11-0062 >/sys/bus/i2c/drivers/leds-pca963x/unbind
echo ...backlight-dock >/sys/bus/platform/drivers/led-backlight/unbind
Fix by adding a devlink between the consuming led-backlight device and the
supplying LED device, as other drivers and subsystems do as well. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid10: fix memleak of md thread
In raid10_run(), if setup_conf() succeed and raid10_run() failed before
setting 'mddev->thread', then in the error path 'conf->thread' is not
freed.
Fix the problem by setting 'mddev->thread' right after setup_conf(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
regulator: core: Protect regulator_supply_alias_list with regulator_list_mutex
regulator_supply_alias_list was accessed without any locking in
regulator_supply_alias(), regulator_register_supply_alias(), and
regulator_unregister_supply_alias(). Concurrent registration,
unregistration and lookups can race, leading to:
1 use-after-free if an alias entry is removed while being read,
2 duplicate entries when two threads register the same alias,
3 inconsistent alias mappings observed by consumers.
Protect all traversals, insertions and deletions on
regulator_supply_alias_list with the existing regulator_list_mutex. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: fortify the spinlock against deadlock by interrupt
In the function ieee80211_tx_dequeue() there is a particular locking
sequence:
begin:
spin_lock(&local->queue_stop_reason_lock);
q_stopped = local->queue_stop_reasons[q];
spin_unlock(&local->queue_stop_reason_lock);
However small the chance (increased by ftracetest), an asynchronous
interrupt can occur in between of spin_lock() and spin_unlock(),
and the interrupt routine will attempt to lock the same
&local->queue_stop_reason_lock again.
This will cause a costly reset of the CPU and the wifi device or an
altogether hang in the single CPU and single core scenario.
The only remaining spin_lock(&local->queue_stop_reason_lock) that
did not disable interrupts was patched, which should prevent any
deadlocks on the same CPU/core and the same wifi device.
This is the probable trace of the deadlock:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Fix NULL pointer dereference in VRAM logic for APU devices
Previously, APU platforms (and other scenarios with uninitialized VRAM managers)
triggered a NULL pointer dereference in `ttm_resource_manager_usage()`. The root
cause is not that the `struct ttm_resource_manager *man` pointer itself is NULL,
but that `man->bdev` (the backing device pointer within the manager) remains
uninitialized (NULL) on APUs—since APUs lack dedicated VRAM and do not fully
set up VRAM manager structures. When `ttm_resource_manager_usage()` attempts to
acquire `man->bdev->lru_lock`, it dereferences the NULL `man->bdev`, leading to
a kernel OOPS.
1. **amdgpu_cs.c**: Extend the existing bandwidth control check in
`amdgpu_cs_get_threshold_for_moves()` to include a check for
`ttm_resource_manager_used()`. If the manager is not used (uninitialized
`bdev`), return 0 for migration thresholds immediately—skipping VRAM-specific
logic that would trigger the NULL dereference.
2. **amdgpu_kms.c**: Update the `AMDGPU_INFO_VRAM_USAGE` ioctl and memory info
reporting to use a conditional: if the manager is used, return the real VRAM
usage; otherwise, return 0. This avoids accessing `man->bdev` when it is
NULL.
3. **amdgpu_virt.c**: Modify the vf2pf (virtual function to physical function)
data write path. Use `ttm_resource_manager_used()` to check validity: if the
manager is usable, calculate `fb_usage` from VRAM usage; otherwise, set
`fb_usage` to 0 (APUs have no discrete framebuffer to report).
This approach is more robust than APU-specific checks because it:
- Works for all scenarios where the VRAM manager is uninitialized (not just APUs),
- Aligns with TTM's design by using its native helper function,
- Preserves correct behavior for discrete GPUs (which have fully initialized
`man->bdev` and pass the `ttm_resource_manager_used()` check).
v4: use ttm_resource_manager_used(&adev->mman.vram_mgr.manager) instead of checking the adev->gmc.is_app_apu flag (Christian) |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: dice: fix buffer overflow in detect_stream_formats()
The function detect_stream_formats() reads the stream_count value directly
from a FireWire device without validating it. This can lead to
out-of-bounds writes when a malicious device provides a stream_count value
greater than MAX_STREAMS.
Fix by applying the same validation to both TX and RX stream counts in
detect_stream_formats(). |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: potential integer overflow in usbg_make_tpg()
The variable tpgt in usbg_make_tpg() is defined as unsigned long and is
assigned to tpgt->tport_tpgt, which is defined as u16. This may cause an
integer overflow when tpgt is greater than USHRT_MAX (65535). I
haven't tried to trigger it myself, but it is possible to trigger it
by calling usbg_make_tpg() with a large value for tpgt.
I modified the type of tpgt to match tpgt->tport_tpgt and adjusted the
relevant code accordingly.
This patch is similar to commit 59c816c1f24d ("vhost/scsi: potential
memory corruption"). |

mm/huge_memory: fix NULL pointer deference when splitting folio
Commit c010d47f107f ("mm: thp: split huge page to any lower order pages")
introduced an early check on the folio's order via mapping->flags before
proceeding with the split work.
This check introduced a bug: for shmem folios in the swap cache and
truncated folios, the mapping pointer can be NULL. Accessing
mapping->flags in this state leads directly to a NULL pointer dereference.
This commit fixes the issue by moving the check for mapping != NULL before
any attempt to access mapping->flags. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: Fix mmap write lock not release
If mmap write lock is taken while draining retry fault, mmap write lock
is not released because svm_range_restore_pages calls mmap_read_unlock
then returns. This causes deadlock and system hangs later because mmap
read or write lock cannot be taken.
Downgrade mmap write lock to read lock if draining retry fault fix this
bug. |

autofs_wait_queue structs should be freed if their wait_ctr becomes zero.
Otherwise they will be lost.
In this case an AUTOFS_IOC_EXPIRE_MULTI ioctl is done, then a new
waitqueue struct is allocated in autofs_wait(), its initial wait_ctr
equals 2. After that wait_event_killable() is interrupted (it returns
-ERESTARTSYS), so that 'wq->name.name == NULL' condition may be not
satisfied. Actually, this condition can be satisfied when
autofs_wait_release() or autofs_catatonic_mode() is called and, what is
also important, wait_ctr is decremented in those places. Upon the exit of
autofs_wait(), wait_ctr is decremented to 1. Then the unmounting process
begins: kill_sb calls autofs_catatonic_mode(), which should have freed the
waitqueues, but it only decrements its usage counter to zero which is not
a correct behaviour.
edit:imk
This description is of course not correct. The umount performed as a result
of an expire is a umount of a mount that has been automounted, it's not the
autofs mount itself. They happen independently, usually after everything
mounted within the autofs file system has been expired away. If everything
hasn't been expired away the automount daemon can still exit leaving mounts
in place. But expires done in both cases will result in a notification that
calls autofs_wait_release() with a result status. The problem case is the
summary execution of of the automount daemon. In this case any waiting
processes won't be woken up until either they are terminated or the mount
is umounted.
end edit: imk
So in catatonic mode we should free waitqueues which counter becomes zero.
edit: imk
Initially I was concerned that the calling of autofs_wait_release() and
autofs_catatonic_mode() was not mutually exclusive but that can't be the
case (obviously) because the queue entry (or entries) is removed from the
list when either of these two functions are called. Consequently the wait
entry will be freed by only one of these functions or by the woken process
in autofs_wait() depending on the order of the calls.
end edit: imk |
