| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: scarlett2: Use a private URB for the notification endpoint
scarlett2_init_notify() used mixer->urb, which
snd_usb_mixer_status_create() allocates for the UAC2 status interrupt
endpoint and mixer.c manages. On a device with that endpoint, the
"already in use" check fires on the status URB and returns 0 for
success without doing anything. No notification URB is submitted, and
cmd_done is left zeroed because it is initialised past that check and
nowhere else. scarlett2_usb_init() then issues SCARLETT2_USB_INIT_1
and wait_for_completion_timeout() would crash adding to the zeroed
wait.head.
Use a separate URB in scarlett2_data, as done for FCP, and initialise
cmd_done in scarlett2_init_private(). mixer.c was also freeing the URB
in snd_usb_mixer_free() and resubmitting it in
snd_usb_mixer_activate(), so scarlett2 must now do both: add
scarlett2_cleanup_urb(), called from private_free and private_suspend,
and a private_resume callback to re-establish the URB after resume.
scarlett2_init_notify() is reached from there, and the URB kill path
in scarlett2_notify() completes cmd_done, leaving a stale count that
would satisfy the next command's wait before the device ACKs. Use
reinit_completion() to clear it.
Also free the URB if the transfer buffer allocation fails, and both if
usb_submit_urb() fails. Move scarlett2_init_notify() up next to
scarlett2_cleanup_urb() so scarlett2_init_private() can reference it
without a forward declaration. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
futex: Fix race on the initial mm->futex.phash.ref allocation
futex_hash_allocate() allocates mm->futex.phash.ref without any locking.
Commit d9b05321e21e ("futex: Move futex_hash_free() back to __mmput()")
moved the allocation here and assumed that the process has just a single
thread at this point.
Commit ee9dce44362b ("futex: Drop CLONE_THREAD requirement for private
default hash alloc") widened need_futex_hash_allocate_default() to cover
any CLONE_VM clone, but left out vfork because the parent is suspended and
cannot race.
That no longer holds once vfork is nested. If a vfork child calls vfork
again and is then killed with SIGKILL, the parent is released from its
vfork wait and runs concurrently with the grandchild in the same mm.
Neither of them went through futex_hash_allocate_default().
When both call prctl(PR_FUTEX_HASH, PR_FUTEX_HASH_SET_SLOTS) at the same
time, each one sees mm->futex.phash.ref as NULL and stores its own percpu
counter. Only the last store survives. The counter stored first is no
longer reachable from the mm, so the references on it are not seen by
__futex_ref_atomic_end(). A private hash that still has references is then
considered dead and freed, and a task that still holds one of its buckets
writes into freed memory in futex_q_lock().
Store the counter once with cmpxchg() and let the loser free_percpu() its
own. The initial reference has to be taken before the store, otherwise
another task can install a private hash while the counter is still 0. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
futex/pi: Plug private futex exec() race
The check for private futexes whether the waiter's mm, which is stored in
the futex_key and copied into the pi_state, is the same as the owner's mm
is not sufficient for exec(). exec() has a gap where the mm check fails to
give the correct answer:
exec()
...
exec_release_mm()
futex_exec_release()
tsk::futex::exit_state = EXITING;
cleanup_robust_list();
1) tsk::futex::exit_state = OK;
...
old_mm = tsk::mm;
2) tsk::mm = ->mm;
Between #1 and #2 the check for the mm is wrong as that mm is about to be
swapped out and eventually freed.
Plug this gap by:
1) Setting tsk::futex::exit_state to FUTEX_STATE_DEAD in
futex_exec_release()
2) Setting tsk::futex::exit_state to FUTEX_STATE_OK after
the mm has been switched.
From a futex point of view the task is dead after it finished the robust
list cleanup up to the point where it sets the state to OK again. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: serialize mode sysfs access with lock_fb_info()
show_mode(), show_modes(), and store_mode() access fb_info->modelist
and fb_info->mode without holding lock_fb_info(). store_modes() takes
lock_fb_info() while replacing the modelist and freeing the old one.
A concurrent reader or writer can load a pointer to an old modelist
entry before store_modes() frees it, then dereference freed memory or
store a stale freed pointer in fb_info->mode.
Take lock_fb_info() in show_mode(), show_modes(), and store_mode() to
serialize with store_modes(). In show_mode(), copy the mode to the
stack and format after dropping the lock. In store_mode(), split
activate() into a _locked variant to avoid double-locking, and hold
the locks for the modelist walk, mode conversion, activation, and
fb_info->mode assignment together. |

Bluetooth: hci_sync: Fix accept list UAF during suspend
hci_update_event_filter_sync() walks hdev->accept_list while sending a
synchronous HCI command for each remote-wakeup device. The suspend path
holds hdev->req_lock, but accept-list updates are serialized by hdev->lock.
Consequently, remove_device() can free the current list entry during the
controller wait.
The following interleaving causes the use-after-free:
hci_update_event_filter_sync() remove_device()
fetch accept-list entry
hci_set_event_filter_sync()
wait for controller response hci_dev_lock()
list_del()
kfree()
hci_dev_unlock()

nilfs2: reject CLEAN_SEGMENTS ioctl with out-of-range segment numbers
Syzbot reported a hung task in nilfs_transaction_begin() where multiple

nilfs_ioctl+0x261f/0x2780
The root cause is that user-supplied segment numbers are not validated
before nilfs_clean_segments() begins doing work; the range check on
each segnum is performed deep inside the call chain by
nilfs_sufile_updatev(), which emits a nilfs_warn() per invalid entry
while still holding the segctor lock and the sufile mi_sem. Under load
(repeated invocations across multiple mounts saturating the global
printk path), the cumulative printk latency keeps ns_segctor_sem held
long enough to trip the hung_task watchdog, blocking concurrent
operations such as chmod() that need ns_segctor_sem for read.
Fix by validating the contents of kbufs[4] in nilfs_clean_segments()
immediately after acquiring ns_segctor_sem via nilfs_transaction_lock().
Holding ns_segctor_sem serializes the check against
nilfs_ioctl_resize(), which can modify ns_nsegments, so the validation
uses a consistent value. Out-of-range segment numbers are rejected
with -EINVAL before any segment-cleaning work begins, so the bad
entries never reach the per-element diagnostic path inside
nilfs_sufile_updatev(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: lg-g15: cancel pending work on remove to fix a use-after-free
lg_g15_data is allocated with devm and holds a work item. The report
handlers schedule that work straight from device input.
lg_g15_event() and lg_g15_v2_event() do it on the backlight cycle key,
and lg_g510_leds_event() does it too. The worker dereferences the
lg_g15_data back through container_of.
The driver had no remove callback and never cancelled the work. So if a
report scheduled the work and the keyboard was then unplugged, devres
freed lg_g15_data while the work was still pending or running, and the
worker touched freed memory. This is a use-after-free. It is reachable
as a race on device unplug.
Add a remove callback that cancels the work before devres frees the
state. g15->work is only initialized for the models that schedule it
(G15, G15 v2, G510). The G13 and Z-10 leave it zeroed, so guard the
cancel on g15->work.func to avoid cancelling a work that was never set
up. The g15 NULL test mirrors the one already in lg_g15_raw_event(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: appleir: fix UAF on pending key_up_timer in remove()
appleir_remove() runs hid_hw_stop() before timer_delete_sync().
hid_hw_stop() synchronously unregisters the HID input device via
hid_disconnect() -> hidinput_disconnect() -> input_unregister_device(),
which drops the last reference and frees the underlying input_dev when
no userspace handle holds it open.
key_up_tick() reads appleir->input_dev and calls input_report_key() /
input_sync() on it. The timer is armed from appleir_raw_event() with
a HZ/8 (~125 ms) timeout on every keydown and key-repeat report. If a
key was pressed shortly before the device is disconnected, the timer
can fire after hid_hw_stop() has freed input_dev but before the
teardown drains it.
A simple reorder is not sufficient. Putting the timer drain first
still leaves a window where a USB URB completion (raw_event) running
during hid_hw_stop() can call mod_timer() and re-arm the timer, which
then fires after hidinput_disconnect() has freed input_dev. The same
URB-completion window also lets raw_event() reach key_up(), key_down()
and battery_flat() directly, all of which dereference
appleir->input_dev.
Introduce a 'removing' flag on struct appleir, gated by the existing
spinlock. appleir_remove() sets the flag under the lock and then
shuts down the timer with timer_shutdown_sync(), which both drains any
in-flight callback and permanently disables further mod_timer() calls.
appleir_raw_event() and key_up_tick() bail out early if the flag is
set, so no path can arm or run the timer, or dereference
appleir->input_dev, after remove() has started tearing down.
The keyrepeat and flatbattery branches of appleir_raw_event()
previously called into the input layer without holding the spinlock;
take it now so the flag check is well-defined. This incidentally
closes a pre-existing read-side race on appleir->current_key in the
keyrepeat branch.
This bug is structurally a sibling of commit 4db2af929279 ("HID:
appletb-kbd: fix UAF in inactivity-timer cleanup path") and has been
present since the driver was introduced. |

The problem happens when there is a pending TX worker running in
parallel with the cleanup path.
This is what happens on netpoll shutdown path:
1) __netpoll_cleanup() is called
2) set dev->npinfo to NULL
3) call_rcu() with rcu_cleanup_netpoll_info()
3.1) rcu_cleanup_netpoll_info() tries to cancel all workers with
cancel_delayed_work(), but doesn't wait for the worker to finish
4) and kfree(npinfo);
Because 3.1) doesn't really cancel the work, as the comment says "we
can't call cancel_delayed_work_sync here, as we are in softirq", the TX
worker can run after 4).
Tl;DR: queue_process() is not an RCU reader, it reaches npinfo through
the work item via container_of().
Use disable_delayed_work_sync() to ensure the worker is completely
stopped and prevent any future re-arming attempts. Once npinfo is set
to NULL, senders will bail out and not queue new work. The disable flag
ensures any in-flight re-arming attempts also fail silently.
In the future, we can do the cleanup inline here without needing the
npinfo->rcu rcu_head, but that is net-next material. |

Bluetooth: fix UAF in bt_accept_dequeue()
bt_accept_get() takes a temporary reference before dropping the accept
queue lock. bt_accept_dequeue() currently drops that reference before
bt_accept_unlink(), leaving only the queue reference.
bt_accept_unlink() drops the queue reference. The subsequent
sock_hold() therefore accesses freed memory if it was the final
reference, as observed by KASAN during listening L2CAP socket cleanup.
Retain the temporary queue-walk reference through unlink and hand it to
the caller on success. Drop it explicitly on the closed and

mxc_isi_crossbar_cleanup() to ensure all media entities are properly
unregistered while the pads are still valid. |

ipv4: igmp: remove multicast group from hash table on device destruction
When a device is destroyed under RTNL, ip_mc_destroy_dev() iterates through
the multicast list and calls ip_ma_put() on each membership, scheduling
them for RCU reclamation. However, they are not unlinked from the device's
multicast hash table (mc_hash).
Since the device remains published in dev->ip_ptr until after
ip_mc_destroy_dev() completes, concurrent RCU readers traversing mc_hash
can still locate and access the multicast group after its refcount is
decremented. If the RCU callback runs and frees the group while a reader is
accessing it, a use-after-free occurs.
Fix this by unlinking the multicast group from mc_hash using
ip_mc_hash_remove() before scheduling it for reclamation.

usb: typec: ucsi: ccg: Fix use-after-free of ucsi on remove
The threaded IRQ handler ccg_irq_handler() calls ucsi_notify_common(),
which on a connector-change event calls ucsi_connector_change() and
schedules connector work. In ucsi_ccg_remove(), ucsi_destroy() frees
uc->ucsi (kfree) before free_irq() is called, so a handler invocation
already in flight may access the freed object after ucsi_destroy().
CPU 0 (remove) | CPU 1 (threaded IRQ)
ucsi_destroy(uc->ucsi) | ccg_irq_handler()
kfree(ucsi) // FREE | ucsi_notify_common(uc->ucsi) // USE
Move free_irq() before ucsi_destroy() in the remove path. It is kept
after ucsi_unregister(): ucsi_unregister() cancels connector work whose
handler issues GET_CONNECTOR_STATUS through ucsi_send_command_common(),
which waits for a completion that is signalled from the IRQ handler, so
the IRQ must stay active until that work has been cancelled.
The probe error path already orders free_irq() before ucsi_destroy().
This bug was found by static analysis. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix UAF of struct file_lock in SMB2_LOCK deferred-lock cancellation
When a blocking byte-range lock request is deferred in the
FILE_LOCK_DEFERRED path, ksmbd registers the asynchronous work into
the connection's async_requests list via setup_async_work(). The cancel
callback smb2_remove_blocked_lock() holds a reference to the flock.
If the lock waiter is subsequently woken up but the work state is no
longer KSMBD_WORK_ACTIVE (e.g., due to a concurrent cancellation), the
cleanup path calls locks_free_lock(flock) without dequeuing the work from
the async_requests list. Concurrently, smb2_cancel() walks the list
under conn->request_lock and invokes the cancel callback, which then
dereferences the already freed 'flock'. This leads to a slab-use-after-free
inside __wake_up_common.
Fix this by restructuring the cleanup logic after the worker returns
from ksmbd_vfs_posix_lock_wait(). Move list_del(&smb_lock->llist) and
release_async_work(work) to the top of the cleanup block. This guarantees
that the async work is completely dequeued and serialized under
conn->request_lock before locks_free_lock(flock) is called, rendering
the flock unreachable for any concurrent smb2_cancel(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: serialize QUERY_DIRECTORY requests per file
smb2_query_dir() stores a pointer to its stack-allocated private data in
the ksmbd_file readdir_data. Concurrent QUERY_DIRECTORY requests using the
same file handle can overwrite this pointer while an iterate_dir() callback
is still using it, resulting in a stack use-after-free.
Add a per-file mutex and hold it while accessing the shared directory
enumeration state. The lock covers scan restart, dot entry state,
readdir_data setup and iteration, and response construction. This prevents
another request from replacing readdir_data.private before the current
request has finished using it and also serializes the shared file position. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: resolve SWN tcon from live registrations
cifs_swn_notify() looks up a witness registration by id under
cifs_swnreg_idr_mutex, drops the mutex, and then uses the registration's
cached tcon pointer. That pointer is not a lifetime reference, and it is
not a stable representative once cifs_get_swn_reg() lets multiple tcons
for the same net/share name share one registration id.
A same-share second mount can keep the cifs_swn_reg alive after the first
tcon unregisters and is freed. The registration then still points at the
freed first tcon, so taking tc_lock or incrementing tc_count through
swnreg->tcon only moves the use-after-free earlier. Taking tc_lock while
holding cifs_swnreg_idr_mutex also violates the documented CIFS lock
order.
Fix this by making the registration store only the stable witness
identity: id, net name, share name, and notify flags. When a notify
arrives, copy that identity under cifs_swnreg_idr_mutex, drop the mutex,
then find and pin a live witness tcon that currently matches the net/share
pair under the normal cifs_tcp_ses_lock -> tc_lock order. The notification
path uses that pinned tcon directly and drops the reference when done.
Registration and unregister messages now use the live tcon passed by the
caller instead of a cached tcon in the registration. The final unregister
send is folded into cifs_swn_unregister() while the registration is still
protected by cifs_swnreg_idr_mutex. This removes the previous
find/drop/reacquire raw-pointer window. The release path only removes the
idr entry and frees the stable identity strings.
This preserves the intended one-registration/many-tcon behavior: a
registration id represents a net/share pair, and notify handling acts on a
live representative selected at use time. It also preserves CLIENT_MOVE
ordering for the representative tcon because the old-IP unregister is sent
before cifs_swn_register() sends the new-IP register. |

gfs2: Fix use-after-free in iomap inline data write path
The inline data buffer head (dibh) is being released prematurely in
gfs2_iomap_begin() via release_metapath() while iomap->inline_data
still points to dibh->b_data. This causes a use-after-free when
iomap_write_end_inline() later attempts to write to the inline data
area.
The bug sequence:
1. gfs2_iomap_begin() calls gfs2_meta_inode_buffer() to read inode
metadata into dibh
2. Sets iomap->inline_data = dibh->b_data + sizeof(struct gfs2_dinode)
3. Calls release_metapath() which calls brelse(dibh), dropping refcount
to 0
4. kswapd reclaims the page (~39ms later in the syzbot report)
5. iomap_write_end_inline() tries to memcpy() to iomap->inline_data
6. KASAN detects use-after-free write to freed memory
Fix by storing dibh in iomap->private and incrementing its refcount
with get_bh() in gfs2_iomap_begin(). The buffer is then properly
released in gfs2_iomap_end() after the inline write completes,
ensuring the page stays alive for the entire iomap operation.
Note: A C reproducer is not available for this issue. The fix is based
on analysis of the KASAN report and code review showing the buffer head
is freed before use.

When processing a PKCS#7 or S/MIME signed message, if the SignedData
digestAlgorithms field is present as an empty ASN.1 SET, OpenSSL may
incorrectly free a caller-owned BIO during PKCS7_verify(). A subsequent
use of the BIO by the calling application results in a use-after-free
condition.
In the common case this occurs when the application later calls
BIO_free() on the BIO originally passed to PKCS7_verify(). Depending
on allocator behavior and application-specific BIO usage patterns, this
may result in a crash or other memory corruption. In some application
contexts this may potentially be exploitable for remote code execution.
Applications that process PKCS#7 or S/MIME signed messages using OpenSSL
PKCS#7 APIs may be affected. Applications using the CMS APIs for this
processing are not affected.
The FIPS modules in 4.0, 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, and 3.0 are not affected by this
issue, as the affected code is outside the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary. |
