| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Revert "media: v4l2-dev: fix error handling in __video_register_device()"
This reverts commit 2a934fdb01db6458288fc9386d3d8ceba6dd551a.
The intentions of that patch were good, but it doesn't work.
The idea is that if device_register fails, you have to do a put_device
to let the ref counter release resources.
However, the V4L2 API says that if video_register_device() fails, then
you have to call video_device_release(), which kfree()s the video_device
struct.
But the put_device() will already have freed the struct, so you end
up in a double-free scenario.
There is not really a good way of fixing this without breaking
video_register_device() into two parts, one that initializes everything,
and one that does the actual device_register, and then converting all
V4L2 drivers to this new model.
That is a massive job, and it is very unlikely that device_register
will fail.
So rather than ending up in a double-free scenario, just revert this
patch, and in that case we'll have a small memory leak. Which is a lot
more robust. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: imx: serialize imx_uart_ports[] lifetime
imx_uart_probe() publishes its devm-allocated port in imx_uart_ports[]
before uart_add_one_port() because console setup uses the table. The entry
is not cleared when adding the port fails or after removal, leaving a
dangling pointer.
A sibling probe can register the shared console through that stale entry.
This was reproduced under KASAN on QEMU mcimx6ul-evk by unbinding a
sibling UART, unbinding the console UART and rebinding the sibling.
Keep the entry valid through uart_remove_one_port(), then clear it. Protect
port addition and removal together with their table updates so sibling
operations cannot interleave. Reject an occupied slot rather than
clobbering an active port during a duplicate-line probe. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: dwc3: gadget: Fix use-after-free in dwc3_gadget_free_endpoints due to race condition
In dwc3_gadget_init_endpoint, &dep->nostream_work is bound with
dwc3_nostream_work, and dwc3_gadget_endpoint_stream_event can queue
this delayed work on system_percpu_wq when a DEPEVT_STREAM_NOSTREAM
event is received.
If we remove the gadget, dwc3_gadget_free_endpoints makes cleanup and
the memory allocated for dep with kzalloc() is released by kfree(dep),
while the delayed work mentioned above may still be pending or
running. The sequence of operations that may lead to a UAF bug is as
follows:
CPU0 CPU1
| dwc3_thread_interrupt
| dwc3_endpoint_interrupt
| dwc3_gadget_endpoint_stream_event
| queue_delayed_work(system_percpu_wq,
| &dep->nostream_work)
dwc3_gadget_free_endpoints |
dwc3_free_trb_pool(dep) |
list_del(&dep->endpoint.ep_list) |
dwc3_debugfs_remove_endpoint_dir(dep) |
kfree(dep) |
// dep is freed |
| dwc3_nostream_work
| // use dep (use-after-free)
Fix it by canceling the delayed work before kfree(dep) in
dwc3_gadget_free_endpoints. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: at91_udc: drain polled-VBUS timer/work before udc is freed
In polled-VBUS mode (board.vbus_pin && board.vbus_polled), probe arms a
self-restarting cycle: at91_vbus_timer() schedules vbus_timer_work, and
at91_vbus_timer_work() calls at91_vbus_update() and re-arms the timer via
mod_timer(). Both recover the same udc through container_of and dereference
it on every iteration.
Neither teardown path cancels this cycle. udc is devm-allocated, so it is
freed after at91udc_remove() returns, and is likewise freed when probe
fails and devres runs. A timer callback or work item that is pending or
running at either point dereferences the freed udc.
Add at91_udc_shutdown_vbus_timer() and call it from at91udc_remove() and
from the usb_add_gadget_udc() failure path in probe; the remaining probe
error paths fail before the timer is armed. timer_shutdown_sync() waits
for a running callback and clears timer->function, which makes the work
handler's mod_timer() a permanent no-op; cancel_work_sync() then drains
any pending or running work whose re-arm attempt now does nothing. The
timer must be shut down first, since cancelling the work alone would let
the timer re-queue it. The guard mirrors probe: in IRQ mode the timer and
work_struct are never initialized.
This does not require a fault; a normal driver unbind can interleave with
an already queued work item.
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: thunderbolt: Disable work before freeing tbt on remove
tbt_altmode_remove() drops the plug and cable references without
draining tbt->work. The work function dereferences those references,
and can also requeue itself in its error path. The VDM callbacks can
queue the same work item.
Disable and drain tbt->work before dropping the references. This waits
for an existing invocation and prevents subsequent schedule_work()
calls from queueing it during teardown.
This issue was found by an in-house static analysis tool and confirmed
by manual code review. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: u_audio: Fix use-after-free on sound card disconnect
g_audio_cleanup() invokes snd_card_free_when_closed() to initiate sound
card teardown and immediately frees the underlying struct snd_uac_chip
context. However, snd_card_free_when_closed() returns asynchronously
while ALSA control elements (kctls) remain open in userspace.
When userspace control applications access or close these open file
descriptors, kctl callbacks attempt to dereference kctl->private_data
pointing to &uac->c_prm or &uac->p_prm within the freed uac structure,
resulting in a use-after-free (UAF) memory corruption.
Fix this issue by deferring the destruction of struct snd_uac_chip until
all references to the ALSA sound card are released. Register a custom
card->private_free callback (u_audio_card_free) during g_audio_setup()
that frees uac and its associated playback/capture request and ring
buffers only when the sound card reference count drops to zero. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: midi2: remove default configfs groups on teardown
f_midi2_alloc_inst() creates default configfs child groups for the
default endpoint and default block using configfs_add_default_group(),
setting their internal refcount to 1.
However, during function teardown in f_midi2_free_inst() or EP cleanup
in f_midi2_ep_opts_release(), configfs_remove_default_groups() is
never called, therefore never dropping the refcount and leaking struct
f_midi2_ep_opts and f_midi2_block_opts.
Add the missing configfs_remove_default_groups() in the afformentioned
functions to free the structs properly. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: uvc: Fix null pointer dereference in uvcg_video_init()
In uvcg_video_init(), if kthread_run_worker() fails,
the error logged uses uvcg_err(), however, the pointer it uses:
video->uvc is not assigned at this point, triggering a null
pointer dereference. Fix this by directly using uvc->func which
is assigned already. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: uvc: fix dangling pointers in uvc_function_bind() and uvc_function_unbind()
In uvc_function_bind() error path, we use usb_ep_free_request which
uses uvc->control_req but does not set it to NULL afterwards. Thus,
uvc->control_req is a dangling pointer causing a UAF. Also we do not set
the uvc->control_buf pointer to NULL after freeing it, which is another
dangling pointer. Fix it by setting uvc->control_req to NULL after we run
usb_ep_free_request() and uvc->control_buf to NULL after kfree. Do the
same for uvc_function_unbind(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_fs: Prevent deadlock during ep0 read loop
Currently, ffs_ep0_read() holds ffs->mutex when it prepares to go to
sleep waiting for an event. When no setup events are pending, it calls
wait_event_interruptible_exclusive_locked_irq() with the mutex still
held. The wait macro deliberately drops the waitqueue spinlock before
sleeping but does not drop the mutex.
If a userspace daemon is polling ep0 via read() and the gadget is
asynchronously torn down via configfs (e.g., echo "" > UDC), a
deadlock can occur:
1. The configfs teardown calls functionfs_unbind(), which queues a
FUNCTIONFS_UNBIND event.
2. The daemon wakes up, consumes the event, and drops the mutex.
3. However, if the daemon loops and immediately issues another read()
before exiting, it reacquires ffs->mutex and again goes into an
interruptible sleep.
4. Meanwhile, functionfs_unbind() continues execution and attempts to
acquire ffs->mutex to tear down ep0req.
5. The kernel deadlocks because the configfs thread is stuck in an
uninterruptible sleep waiting for the mutex, while the userspace
daemon is in an interruptible sleep holding the mutex forever
because no more events will arrive.
To fix this, we drop both the waitqueue spinlock and ffs->mutex before
going to sleep, and use wait_event_interruptible_exclusive() instead.
Upon waking up, we jump back to the `retry` label to safely reacquire
the mutex and re-evaluate the state machine. By not sleeping with
ffs->mutex held, we natively decouple gadget teardowns (which require
the mutex) from userspace polling. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl/ras: Fix cxl_rch_get_aer_info() out-of-bounds AER register read
cxl_rch_get_aer_info() copies the RCH Downstream Port AER capability from
the RCRB MMIO block using a readl() loop bounded by sizeof(struct
aer_capability_regs). This struct is a software layout and its embedded
struct pcie_tlp_log is larger than the on-wire AER capability. As a
result the loop reads past the mapped AER register block.
The over-read also populates the software-only tail fields including
header_log.header_len. An out-of-range header_len passed to
pcie_print_tlp_log() can then loop past the header log buffer and cause
a second out-of-bounds read.
The read was correct when introduced, but struct pcie_tlp_log has since
grown (Header Log and TLP Prefix Log sizes, header_len and flit fields),
so sizeof(struct aer_capability_regs) no longer matches the physical AER
capability.
Bound the read to the physical AER registers, header through the 16 byte
Header Log. Zero the destination first so the software-only fields are
deterministic. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fpga: altera-cvp: Avoid out-of-bounds read in trailing byte write
The trailing byte path in altera_cvp_send_block() dereferences a u32
pointer even when only 1-3 bytes remain in the input buffer. If the buffer
ends at a page or scatterlist boundary, this can read past the valid image
data and fault.
Copy the remaining bytes into a zero-initialized u32 before writing the
final word so only valid bytes are read from the input buffer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: sensor-hub: Fix out-of-bounds write in sensor_hub_get_feature
sensor_hub_get_feature() clamps its return value to the caller's buffer
size, but the copy loop still copies field->report_size / 8 bytes for
each report value. A malicious HID descriptor can advertise a large
feature field size while an IIO caller supplies a small stack buffer,
such as a single s32, causing an out-of-bounds write.
HID core stores parsed report values in __s32 slots and clamps extracted
values to 32 bits. Reject feature fields that require more than one slot
per value, guard the total byte count calculation, and clamp each
per-value copy to the remaining caller buffer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i3c: renesas: Fix out-of-bounds access for newdevs mask
When software initiates DAA (Dynamic Address Assignment), the controller
reports the result via the NRSPQP (Normal Response Queue Port Register).
The data length field of the response descriptor, which is accessible
through the NRSPQP register, indicates the number of devices remaining
after DAA. Consequently, when the bus is empty, this field contains the
maximum number of devices supported by the controller (8 for the Renesas
I3C controller).
Adjust the condition that computes the newly discovered devices bitmask
to prevent an out-of-bounds when the I3C bus is empty. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: GICv2: Don't WARN on out-of-range GICV_DIR INTID
vgic_v2_deactivate() passes the INTID a guest wrote to GICV_DIR straight
to vgic_get_vcpu_irq(), and treats a failed lookup as a "can't happen"
condition with WARN_ON_ONCE().
The guest can make it happen at will, though: for any INTID outside of
the implemented SGI, PPI and SPI ranges the lookup returns NULL, since
GICv2 has no LPIs. A guest running with EOImode==1 writing such an INTID
to GICV_DIR triggers the WARN, and panics hosts running with
panic_on_warn.
Drop the WARN and ignore failed lookups. |

lib/ucs2_string.c: fix out-of-bounds read in ucs2_strnlen()
Patch series "lib/ucs2_string.c: fix out-of-bounds read in
ucs2_strnlen()", v2.
This series fixes an off-by-one out-of-bounds read in ucs2_strnlen().
The first patch is the real fix, the second patch comes as a bonus and
fixes the code indentation.
This patch (of 2):
ucs2_strnlen() checks the current character before checking whether the
caller-provided maximum length has been reached. If the input is not
NUL-terminated within that bound, the loop can read one ucs2_char_t past
the limit.
Test the length before dereferencing to prevent an off-by-one
out-of-bounds read. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: cec: stm32: prevent out-of-bounds write on RX overflow
stm32_rx_done() appends each received CEC byte to rx_msg.msg[] using
rx_msg.len as the write index, incrementing it on every RXBR
(receive-byte-ready) interrupt without checking it against the buffer
size:
cec->rx_msg.msg[cec->rx_msg.len++] = val & 0xFF;
rx_msg.msg[] is a fixed CEC_MAX_MSG_SIZE (16) byte array in struct
cec_msg, and rx_msg.len is only reset on RXACKE/RXOVR or after a
completed message (RXEND). The number of bytes received before RXEND is
decided by the remote CEC device (it sets EOM), not by the driver. A
peer that keeps sending bytes without ending the message drives RXBR
repeatedly, pushing rx_msg.len past 16 and writing peer-controlled bytes
out of bounds into the surrounding memory. This is reachable in normal
operation once the driver has probed and receiving is enabled, from the
IRQ thread, without any local privilege.
The length check in the CEC core runs on the consumer side, after the
byte has been stored, so it does not prevent the overflow. Bound the
index in the driver before the store, as the other platform CEC drivers
already do (e.g. tegra_cec), dropping the excess bytes of an overlong
frame.
Found by static analysis tool CodeQL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: vicodec: fix out-of-bounds write in FWHT encoder
vidioc_s_fmt_vid_out() sizes the encoder CAPTURE buffer from the
compressed descriptor pixfmt_fwht, whose sizeimage_mult is 3:
coded_w * coded_h * 3 + sizeof(struct fwht_cframe_hdr). fwht_encode_frame()
encodes one plane per component, and an incompressible plane takes the
FWHT_FRAME_UNENCODED path in encode_plane(), copying the plane verbatim.
For a 4-component pixel format all four planes are full resolution
(width_div == height_div == 1), so a frame that forces every plane
through the unencoded fallback writes
sizeof(struct fwht_cframe_hdr) + 4 * coded_w * coded_h bytes, overrunning
the plane by coded_w * coded_h, which can result in corruption
of adjacent kernel heap memory.
Bump pixfmt_fwht.sizeimage_mult from 3 to 4, matching the largest
components_num among the supported raw formats, so the capture buffer is
always large enough for the unencoded fallback. |

nilfs2: fix slab-out-of-bounds in nilfs_direct_propagate after truncation
Shuangpeng Bai reported that KASAN detected a slab-out-of-bounds error
in nilfs_direct_propagate() during testing.
Analysis revealed that after truncating a file, a node block immediately
below the B-tree root was not deleted. Instead, it remained in the B-tree
node cache in a dirty state. The log writer subsequently detected this
block and incorrectly invoked nilfs_direct_propagate() on it, which is
designed to handle only data blocks in direct mapping.
B-tree nodes in the cache are managed by virtual block numbers, and their
logical keys typically exceed the range expected by direct mapping.
Consequently, processing such a node as a direct mapping entry triggers
a slab-out-of-bounds access.
The root cause is that when a B-tree mapping collapses into a direct
mapping during truncation, an intermediate node block pointed to by the
root node is left behind as garbage instead of being explicitly deleted.
This resolves the issue by adding a nilfs_btree_discard() operation
to delete the remaining intermediate node block during the conversion.
A 'deform' flag is added to the bop_delete interface to explicitly signal
that the deletion is part of a mapping transformation. This allows the
B-tree mapping implementation to perform the necessary cleanup and
discarding of the residual node structure that would be otherwise be left
orphaned after the transition. |

PCI/sysfs: Fix out-of-bounds read in pci_write_legacy_io()
pci_write_legacy_io() loads 4 bytes from the kernfs write buffer
regardless of how many bytes userspace wrote:
if (count != 1 && count != 2 && count != 4)
return -EINVAL;
return pci_legacy_write(bus, off, *(u32 *)buf, count);
kernfs_fop_write_iter() allocates the buffer with kmalloc(len + 1),
so a 1-byte write to the legacy_io sysfs file allocates 2 bytes and
the unconditional u32 load reads up to 2 bytes past the end of the
allocation, which KASAN reports as a slab-out-of-bounds read.
Similarly, a 2-byte write overreads by 1 byte.
Thus, read only the number of bytes requested using get_unaligned_le16()
and get_unaligned_le32() for the 2 and 4 byte cases, interpreting the
buffer as little-endian to match the byte ordering of PCI I/O port
space.
The PowerPC implementation previously compensated for the generic
code's native-endian 32-bit load by shifting the value into place
for the 1 and 2 byte cases. The shifts were only correct on
big-endian kernels.
On little-endian PowerPC (POWER8 and later), they extracted the wrong
bytes, so a 1-byte write wrote an out-of-bounds byte instead of the
requested value. On big-endian, the native load also caused out_le16()
and out_le32() to reverse the user's bytes on the wire for 2 and 4 byte
writes. The little-endian helpers resolve both issues, so the shifts
are removed.
No changes are needed for the Alpha platform.
The legacy_io file is root-only and exists only on Alpha and PowerPC,
the two architectures that define HAVE_PCI_LEGACY. |
