CVSS v3.1 |
| Use after free in Windows Hyper-V allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally. |
| Out-of-bounds read in SQL Server allows an authorized attacker to disclose information over a network. |
| A flaw was found in cifs-utils. This flaw allows an unprivileged local user to achieve privilege escalation. When a privileged service mounts a Common Internet File System (CIFS) share using a user-controlled credentials file, input values are not properly sanitized before being assembled into mount options. A local attacker can exploit this vulnerability to inject unauthorized mount options, allowing them to bypass permission checks and execute files with administrative (root) privileges. |

nfsd: fix XDR padding calculation in ff_encode_getdeviceinfo
nfsd4_ff_encode_getdeviceinfo() computes the da_addr_body reservation
as 16 + netid_len + addr_len, but the subsequent xdr_encode_opaque()
calls emit 8 + round_up(netid_len, 4) + round_up(addr_len, 4) bytes.
The mismatch means the declared da_addr_body length exceeds the actual
encoded data by 2-8 bytes on every flexfile GETDEVICEINFO reply,
leaking stale reply-page content to the client and mis-aligning the
subsequent version list decode.
Use xdr_align_size() for each string length to match what
xdr_encode_opaque() actually writes. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix heap out-of-bounds write in krb5_authenticate()
In krb5_authenticate(), out_len is calculated to determine available
headroom in response_buf for the incoming Kerberos AP-REP token. However,
when SMB2_SESSION_SETUP is processed as a non-first element of a compounded
SMB2 request, the calculation omits work->next_smb2_rsp_hdr_off.
This causes out_len to overstate remaining buffer headroom by
the cumulative size of prior responses in the compound chain. Consequently,
the length check in ksmbd_krb5_authenticate()
(*out_len <= resp->spnego_blob_len) passes erroneously, allowing memcpy()
to write the AP-REP blob past the end of response_buf into adjacent kernel
heap memory.
Fix this by subtracting work->next_smb2_rsp_hdr_off when computing out_len,
ensuring it accurately reflects physical remaining buffer space. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86: Use active memslots for the per-vCPU MMIO cache
KVM tags the per-vCPU MMIO cache with a memslot generation so that a
memslot update invalidates cached MMIO information. Both the fill and
validation paths use kvm_memslots(), which unconditionally selects address
space 0, even when the vCPU is running in SMM and using address space 1.
Commit 56f17dd3fbc4 ("kvm: x86: fix stale mmio cache bug") added the
memslot generation to the cache key so that a memslot update could not
leave a stale entry valid. When commit 699023e23965 ("KVM: x86: add SMM
to the MMU role, support SMRAM address space") added the SMM address space,
these helpers were not converted to use the active memslots.
Consequently, an update to the SMM memslots can leave an entry from the old
SMM address space apparently valid after the vCPU returns to the normal
address space. A guest can then cause an access to valid RAM at the same
GFN to be returned to userspace as KVM_EXIT_MMIO.
Completing that exit through the VMM's RAM address space writes the backing
page without going through KVM's write-tracking path. If the page backs a
nested EPT table, KVM can continue using shadow translations derived from
the old contents. The WARN_ON_ONCE() in kvm_mmu_write_protect_fault()
catches this invalid cache and memslot combination.
Use the vCPU's active memslots when caching and validating the entry.
Memslot generations are unique across address spaces, so the generation
also distinguishes the normal and SMM views. This matches the MMIO SPTE
cache, which already uses kvm_vcpu_memslots().
On an unpatched current-mainline kernel, a regression test that fills the
cache in SMM and updates only the SMM memslots fails the intended RAM write
and triggers the kvm_mmu_write_protect_fault() warning. With this change,
the same test completes the RAM write without a warning. The x86/smm_test,
set_memory_region_test, and memslot_modification_stress_test selftests also
pass. |

bnxt_en: fix DMA mapping length for padded small packets
Stefan Fleischmann reported Intel IOMMU DMA Read faults on BCM57412
NetXtreme-E NICs when transmitting packets on VLAN/macvlan interfaces:
DMAR: [DMA Read NO_PASID] Request device [18:00.0] fault addr 0xfc499000
[fault reason 0x06] PTE Read access is not set
bnxt_en 0000:18:00.0 eno1np0: Abandoning msg {0xb4 0x41a} len: 0 due to firmware status: 0x2000001
...
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eno1np0 (bnxt_en): transmit queue 0 timed out
The fault address (0xfc499000) is on an exact 4KB page boundary,
pointing to a DMA read buffer overrun.
In bnxt_start_xmit(), packets smaller than BNXT_MIN_PKT_SIZE (52 bytes),
such as 42-byte untagged ARP frames, are padded:
if (length < BNXT_MIN_PKT_SIZE) {
pad = BNXT_MIN_PKT_SIZE - length;
if (skb_pad(skb, pad))
goto tx_kick_pending;
length = BNXT_MIN_PKT_SIZE;
}
mapping = dma_map_single(&pdev->dev, skb->data, len, DMA_TO_DEVICE);
...
dma_unmap_len_set(tx_buf, len, len);
However, 'len' was initialized earlier to skb_headlen(skb) (e.g. 42 bytes)
and is left unadjusted after padding. Consequently, dma_map_single() and
dma_unmap_len_set() map and track only 42 bytes.
Later, the hardware TX buffer descriptor is programmed with the padded length:
txbd->tx_bd_len_flags_type =
cpu_to_le32(((len + pad) << TX_BD_LEN_SHIFT) | flags |
TX_BD_FLAGS_PACKET_END);
The NIC DMA engine is thus instructed to read 52 bytes from a region where
only 42 bytes were DMA-mapped. If skb->data ends near the boundary of a 4KB
page (within 'pad' bytes of the next page), the hardware DMA read overruns
into the unmapped adjacent page, triggering an IOMMU fault.
This issue was exposed after commit 447cbe95ebb9 ("vlan: fix skb_under_panic
and races when toggling HW VLAN offload") because reserving extra VLAN
headroom rounded LL_RESERVED_SPACE from 48 up to 64 bytes, shifting skb->data
offsets and potentially causing small frames to land right against page
boundaries.
Fix this by using skb_put_padto(skb, BNXT_MIN_PKT_SIZE) in
bnxt_start_xmit(), before skb_shinfo(skb)->nr_frags is sampled,
because padding might linearize the skb.
This ensures skb->len and skb_headlen(skb) reflect the padded size so
that dma_map_single() maps the full buffer and the descriptor length is
consistent. This also removes the temporary 'pad' variable and masking logic.
The padding is done after the SW USO branch, otherwise
bnxt_sw_udp_gso_xmit() would account the padding as UDP payload
and send it in extra segments.
Note that SW USO segments are still not padded: with IPv4, a segment
carrying less than 10 bytes of UDP payload (small gso_size, or a short
last segment) is sent as a frame shorter than BNXT_MIN_PKT_SIZE.
This is a separate issue, left for a followup patch. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Prevent stale XSK buffer release on refill retry
When an XDP redirect to an AF_XDP socket fails because its RX ring is
full, the XSK core frees the buffer. During the subsequent batched refill
of a legacy cyclic RQ, mlx5e also releases the WQE's XSK buffer before
allocating a replacement. If that refill succeeds only partially, a WQE
left without a replacement retains its old buffer pointer.
The buffer can meanwhile be allocated to another WQE. A later refill
retry can then free the live buffer through the stale pointer and publish
the same UMEM frame twice.
Mark the WQE as released immediately after the driver-side free. The flag
is already cleared when a replacement buffer is assigned, so refill
retries no longer release stale pointers.
The failure is silent and produces no kernel warning or splat. A
standalone legacy cyclic-RQ zero-copy libxsk reproducer, using 64-byte UDP
traffic offered at 12 Mpps, detected it: stock stopped after 2,854,914
packets in 4.094 seconds, with 4,542 xdp_rx_ring_full events and 64
ownership/double-publication errors. With this change it processed
356,904,225 packets in 30 seconds despite 571,405 xdp_rx_ring_full events,
with no ownership or data errors. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Prevent stale XSK buffer release on MPWQE refill retry
With AF_XDP on a striding RQ, mlx5e defers releasing XSK buffers until
an MPWQE is refilled. If XSK allocation then returns -ENOMEM,
actual_wq_head is not advanced and a later NAPI poll retries the same
WQE.
mlx5e_free_rx_mpwqe() leaves each released slot marked as releasable. On
retry it can therefore call xsk_buff_free() again through stale pointers
after the frames have returned to the XSK pool and been reallocated.
Set all skip_release_bitmap bits in the common error path of
mlx5e_xsk_alloc_rx_mpwqe(). This matches mlx5e_alloc_rx_mpwqe(). A
successful allocation already clears the bitmap after replacing every
buffer, so retries become idempotent without changing the success path.
Fault injection forced three consecutive failures for one selected MPWQE.
Both an early allocation failure and a partial 8-of-16-buffer unwind
released the original 16 XSK buffers only once. Each error left a full
bitmap, the following NAPI retry skipped the release, and a later
successful allocation cleared it. A 20-second AF_XDP zero-copy pressure
run exercised 1,575,262 buffer allocation failures without invalid
descriptors, WQE errors, or kernel warnings. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wireguard: noise: reject response consumption after intermediate initiation
Two threads begin processing the identical response message, received
twice. The first thread, A, runs. While it's running, the second one,
B, gets partway through, and during that slow calculation, or even while
blocking on down_write(), A completes and then also a handshake
initiation that's already been queued up runs in thread C, which itself
takes that same down_write(). The handshake initiation creation
succeeds, and sets the state back to waiting-for-response, and calls
up_write(), at which point thread B resumes, because either its finished
its calculations or was finally allowed to acquire down_write(). Thread
B then copies the state back to the peer, and begins a new session,
using that state, which is the same session as the one made in thread A.
Thread A Thread B Thread C
down_read()
sA = handshake->state
memcpy(cA, handshake->crypto)
up_read()
if (sA != 1)
goto fail
slow_crypto(cA)
down_read()
sB = handshake->state
memcpy(cB, handshake->crypto)
up_read()
if (sB != 1)
goto fail
slow_crypto(cB)
down_write()
if (sA != handshake->state)
goto fail
memcpy(handshake->crypto, cA)
handshake->state = 2

if (handshake->state != 2)
goto fail
derive_session(handshake->crypto)

if (sB != handshake->state)
goto fail
memcpy(handshake->crypto, cB)
handshake->state = 2
up_write()
down_write()
if (handshake->state != 2)
goto fail
derive_session(handshake->crypto)
up_write()
This seems basically impossible to hit in a meaningful way in practice,
but ensure that it absolutely cannot happen by comparing the ephemeral
private key that's on the stack with the latest one that the peer's
handshake state has. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: hold a reference to nodes found by link name
tipc_node_find_by_name() returns a node after dropping its RCU read lock
without taking a reference. The LINK_SET, LINK_GET and LINK_RESET_STATS
handlers then lock and access the node, racing with timer-driven cleanup of
a down peer. Generic netlink serialization does not exclude the node
timer.
The following interleaving can leave a handler using a freed node:
CPU 0: find the node under RCU and release the node read lock
CPU 1: tipc_node_timeout() clears the links and unlinks the down node
CPU 1: drop the list and timer references, queuing tipc_node_free()
CPU 0: leave the RCU read-side critical section
CPU 1: complete the grace period and free the node
CPU 0: acquire the node lock through the stale pointer
LINK_SET also uses the node's media address after releasing the node lock,
when passing queued packets to tipc_bearer_xmit().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fsverity: RCU-delay the freeing of struct fsverity_info
__fsverity_get_info() calls rhashtable_lookup_fast(), which just uses
rcu_read_lock() and doesn't directly synchronize with
fsverity_remove_info().
For the same inode this isn't a problem: its fsverity_info is removed
only at inode eviction time or upon failure to enable verity, when the
inode no longer needs its fsverity_info and it will no longer be
accessed via that inode.
However, this is broken and can cause a use-after-free for concurrent
__fsverity_get_info() for *different* inodes. Those rely on following
fsverity_info::rhash_head in the rhashtable under rcu_read_lock() only.
They also use fsverity_info::inode to do the key comparison.
Fix this by RCU-delaying the freeing of 'struct fsverity_info' after
it's been removed from the rhashtable. |

gve: fix XSK buffer leak on error descriptor
When the error bit is set in the RX completion descriptor, the buf_state
and its attached buffer should be freed. In the case of AF_XDP ZC, the
XSK buffer was not freed, leading to a leak.
This issue was caught by LLM. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/net: populate CONNECT filter fields for 24-byte sockaddr_in6
io_connect_bpf_populate() fills connect.port and connect.v6_addr for
AF_INET6 only when addr_len >= sizeof(struct sockaddr_in6), i.e. 28
bytes.
The IPv6 connect paths accept SIN6_LEN_RFC2133 (24 bytes), which
already holds sin6_port and sin6_addr. io_connect() passes addr_len to
the socket layer unchanged.
At addr_len 24 the filter sees family AF_INET6 with port and address
zero, while the kernel connects to the real destination. A filter that
denies an IPv6 port or address is bypassed. Denying connect.port == P
rejects [::1]:P with -EACCES at addr_len 28 but connects at addr_len 24.
Use SIN6_LEN_RFC2133 as the threshold. sin6_scope_id stays zero when
absent.
The threshold mismatch was found by an AI coding assistant (Claude Code)
comparing this hook against the net/ipv6 length checks on my
instructions; it also drafted the reproducer and this patch. I verified
the bypass and the fix in a VM on 7.3-rc6 and that 7.2 has the same
code. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: protect clcsock lifetime in smc_getname
smc_getname() dereferences smc->clcsock without holding
clcsock_release_lock. Link-group termination can release the CLC socket
through smc_close_active_abort() while the SMC socket is still open,
for example after shutdown(SHUT_WR).
A getsockname() caller can load smc->clcsock, then the termination worker
can clear the pointer and call sock_release() before the caller accesses
clcsock->ops or invokes getname(). This causes a use-after-free; if the
worker clears the pointer before the load, it causes a NULL dereference.
The syscall's file reference keeps the SMC socket alive but does not
prevent asynchronous release of its CLC socket.

net: skbuff: don't leave stale bytes in skb_copy_and_csum_bits()
When skb_copy_and_csum_bits() reaches unreadable frags it returns 0
after copying only the linear part, and the rest of the caller's buffer
is left as it was. The callers copy into a buffer that is about to go
out on the wire: an ICMP error quoting the offending packet, or a
driver's TX bounce buffer in skb_copy_and_csum_dev(). Neither buffer
is zeroed beforehand, so whatever was in memory there gets sent.
Zero the part of the buffer we didn't fill. The checksum usually
won't match the data any more, so the receiver will usually drop the
packet, but either way it no longer carries anything it shouldn't.
Only zero for a positive @len, a negative one from a broken caller must
not turn into a huge memset(). |

riscv: errata: select RISCV_ALTERNATIVE_EARLY for THEAD GHOSTWRITE
errata_probe_ghostwrite() only marks the CPU as vulnerable when it is
called at the RISCV_ALTERNATIVES_EARLY_BOOT stage, and the mitigation
in ghostwrite_enable_mitigation() only takes effect if the vulnerable
state was recorded before the boot alternatives are patched.
The early boot stage is only executed when CONFIG_RISCV_ALTERNATIVE_EARLY
is enabled, which currently is only selected by ERRATA_THEAD_MAE. In a
kernel built with ERRATA_THEAD_GHOSTWRITE=y but ERRATA_THEAD_MAE=n, the
early alternatives never run, so ghostwrite_state is never set to
VULNERABLE: ghostwrite_enable_mitigation() returns false, xtheadvector
remains enabled, and sysfs reports "Not affected" on a vulnerable
T-Head C9xx CPU.
Select RISCV_ALTERNATIVE_EARLY from ERRATA_THEAD_GHOSTWRITE so that the
vulnerability is detected in the early boot stage and the default
mitigation is applied. |

Bluetooth: hci_sync: Fix command skb lifetime during scan setup
During PA sync scan setup, hci_le_set_ext_scan_param_sync() gets the
address used for the PA_LINK lookup from hci_sent_cmd_data(). The
returned pointer borrows storage from sent_cmd or req_skb, without
holding a reference to either skb.
The scan worker runs on req_workqueue while hci_cmd_work() runs on the
separate device workqueue. After the scan worker loads sent_cmd, the
command worker can free and replace it before hci_sent_cmd_data()
dereferences the skb. The command payload can also be freed between
returning from the helper and comparing the address. The connection
lookup's RCU critical section does not protect the command skb.

Bluetooth: ISO: Reject concurrent BIS listener setup
iso_sock_listen() drops the socket lock before calling iso_listen_bis()
to preserve the hdev->lock ordering. Two concurrent listen() calls on
the same broadcast socket can therefore both observe BT_BOUND. Caller
A can attach connA and release the locks, then caller B can acquire
them and attach connB before A publishes BT_LISTEN.
__iso_chan_add() checks whether connB already has a socket, but not
whether the socket already has a connection. The second attachment
overwrites iso_pi(sk)->conn, leaking the connA reference and leaving
connA->sk intact. Socket teardown follows connB, so later events on
connA can cause a stale socket access.
Recheck BT_BOUND and require iso_pi(sk)->conn to be NULL after taking
both the HCI device and socket locks in iso_listen_bis(). The connection
check also covers the interval between attachment and publication of
BT_LISTEN. Reject a competing setup with -EBADFD through the existing

namespace: queue a mount only once for mount notifications
mnt_notify_add() puts a mount on notify_list. It doesn't check whether
the mount is on the list already. That's fine as long as every mount is
queued at most once per namespace_sem hold. It isn't.
propagate_umount() moves a surviving overmount off a stack of mounts
that are going away and queues it as moved. shrink_submounts() and
mark_mounts_for_expiry() call umount_tree() for several mounts under a
single namespace_sem hold. So the second umount_tree() can take down
exactly the mount the first one reparented, reparent it once more and so
end up queueing it a second time.
The second list_add_tail() cuts the mounts queued in between out of the
list while the head still points at the last of them. notify_mnt_list()
then only visits that one mount and the others are freed after the grace
period with notify_list still pointing at them. Every later mount
operation on the host walks freed memory:

This needs a mount with MNT_SHRINKABLE to bind from. That's what

namespace with a FAN_MARK_MNTNS mark does the rest and root in a user
namespace can have both.
Initialize to_notify in alloc_vfsmnt() and leave a mount alone that is
queued already. mnt_notify() looks at the state the mount has when the
list is drained so a single entry per mount is enough. The move event
for a mount that is unmounted under the same hold is lost. That's fine.
The detach is what matters. |
