CVSS v3.1 |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pid: Add a judgment for ns null in pid_nr_ns
__task_pid_nr_ns
ns = task_active_pid_ns(current);
pid_nr_ns(rcu_dereference(*task_pid_ptr(task, type)), ns);
if (pid && ns->level <= pid->level) {
Sometimes null is returned for task_active_pid_ns. Then it will trigger kernel panic in pid_nr_ns.
For example:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000058

Kernel panic - not syncing: Oops: Fatal exception in interrupt |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs: dealloc commit test ctx always
The damon_ctx for testing online DAMON parameters commit inputs is
deallocated only when the test fails. This means memory is leaked for
every successful online DAMON parameters commit. Fix the leak by always
deallocating it. |

mm: prevent poison consumption when splitting THP
When performing memory error injection on a THP (Transparent Huge Page)
mapped to userspace on an x86 server, the kernel panics with the following
trace. The expected behavior is to terminate the affected process instead
of panicking the kernel, as the x86 Machine Check code can recover from an
in-userspace #MC.
mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 0: Machine Check Exception: f Bank 3: bd80000000070134

mce: [Hardware Error]: Run the above through 'mcelog --ascii'
mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check: Data load in unrecoverable area of kernel
Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal local machine check
The root cause of this panic is that handling a memory failure triggered
by an in-userspace #MC necessitates splitting the THP. The splitting
process employs a mechanism, implemented in
try_to_map_unused_to_zeropage(), which reads the pages in the THP to
identify zero-filled pages. However, reading the pages in the THP results
in a second in-kernel #MC, occurring before the initial memory_failure()
completes, ultimately leading to a kernel panic. See the kernel panic
call trace on the two #MCs.
First Machine Check occurs // [1]
memory_failure() // [2]
try_to_split_thp_page()
split_huge_page()
split_huge_page_to_list_to_order()
__folio_split() // [3]
remap_page()
remove_migration_ptes()
remove_migration_pte()
try_to_map_unused_to_zeropage() // [4]
memchr_inv() // [5]
Second Machine Check occurs // [6]
Kernel panic
[1] Triggered by accessing a hardware-poisoned THP in userspace, which is
typically recoverable by terminating the affected process.
[2] Call folio_set_has_hwpoisoned() before try_to_split_thp_page().
[3] Pass the RMP_USE_SHARED_ZEROPAGE remap flag to remap_page().
[4] Try to map the unused THP to zeropage.
[5] Re-access pages in the hw-poisoned THP in the kernel.
[6] Triggered in-kernel, leading to a panic kernel.
In Step[2], memory_failure() sets the poisoned flag on the page in the THP
by TestSetPageHWPoison() before calling try_to_split_thp_page().
As suggested by David Hildenbrand, fix this panic by not accessing to the
poisoned page in the THP during zeropage identification, while continuing
to scan unaffected pages in the THP for possible zeropage mapping. This
prevents a second in-kernel #MC that would cause kernel panic in Step[4].
Thanks to Andrew Zaborowski for his initial work on fixing this issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/core: fix potential memory leak by cleaning ops_filter in damon_destroy_scheme
Currently, damon_destroy_scheme() only cleans up the filter list but
leaves ops_filter untouched, which could lead to memory leaks when a
scheme is destroyed.
This patch ensures both filter and ops_filter are properly freed in
damon_destroy_scheme(), preventing potential memory leaks. |

Since msm_vma_job_free() is called directly from the ioctl, this looks
like an error path cleanup issue. Which I think results from
prealloc_cleanup() called without a preceding successful
prealloc_allocate() call. So handle that case better.

cifs: client: fix memory leak in smb3_fs_context_parse_param
The user calls fsconfig twice, but when the program exits, free() only
frees ctx->source for the second fsconfig, not the first.
Regarding fc->source, there is no code in the fs context related to its
memory reclamation.
To fix this memory leak, release the source memory corresponding to ctx
or fc before each parsing.

drm/mediatek: Fix device use-after-free on unbind
A recent change fixed device reference leaks when looking up drm
platform device driver data during bind() but failed to remove a partial
fix which had been added by commit 80805b62ea5b ("drm/mediatek: Fix
kobject put for component sub-drivers").
This results in a reference imbalance on component bind() failures and
on unbind() which could lead to a user-after-free.
Make sure to only drop the references after retrieving the driver data
by effectively reverting the previous partial fix.
Note that holding a reference to a device does not prevent its driver
data from going away so there is no point in keeping the reference. |

During f2fs_evict_inode(), clear_inode() detects that we missed to truncate
all page cache before destorying inode, that is because in below path, we
will create page #0 in cache, but missed to drop it in error path, let's fix
it.

ns: initialize ns_list_node for initial namespaces
Make sure that the list is always initialized for initial namespaces. |
| PureVPN client applications on Linux through September 2025 allow IPv6 traffic to leak outside the VPN tunnel upon network events such as Wi-Fi reconnect or system resume. In the CLI client, the VPN auto-reconnects and claims to be connected, but IPv6 traffic is no longer routed or blocked. In the GUI client, the IPv6 connection remains functional after disconnection until the user clicks Reconnect. In both cases, the real IPv6 address is exposed to external services, violating user privacy and defeating the advertised IPv6 leak protection. This affects CLI 2.0.1 and GUI 2.10.0. |

The issue was reported on 12th of August and was ignored by author of
commits introducing issue for two weeks. Only after complaining author
produced a fix which did not work, so if original commits cannot be
reliably fixed for 5 weeks, they obviously are buggy and need to be
dropped. |

net: mdio: Check regmap pointer returned by device_node_to_regmap()
The call to device_node_to_regmap() in airoha_mdio_probe() can return
an ERR_PTR() if regmap initialization fails. Currently, the driver
stores the pointer without validation, which could lead to a crash
if it is later dereferenced.
Add an IS_ERR() check and return the corresponding error code to make
the probe path more robust. |

drm/amdgpu/atom: Check kcalloc() for WS buffer in amdgpu_atom_execute_table_locked()
kcalloc() may fail. When WS is non-zero and allocation fails, ectx.ws
remains NULL while ectx.ws_size is set, leading to a potential NULL
pointer dereference in atom_get_src_int() when accessing WS entries.
Return -ENOMEM on allocation failure to avoid the NULL dereference. |

media: imon: make send_packet() more robust
syzbot is reporting that imon has three problems which result in
hung tasks due to forever holding device lock [1].
First problem is that when usb_rx_callback_intf0() once got -EPROTO error
after ictx->dev_present_intf0 became true, usb_rx_callback_intf0()
resubmits urb after printk(), and resubmitted urb causes
usb_rx_callback_intf0() to again get -EPROTO error. This results in
printk() flooding (RCU stalls).
Alan Stern commented [2] that
In theory it's okay to resubmit _if_ the driver has a robust
error-recovery scheme (such as giving up after some fixed limit on the
number of errors or after some fixed time has elapsed, perhaps with a
time delay to prevent a flood of errors). Most drivers don't bother to
do this; they simply give up right away. This makes them more
vulnerable to short-term noise interference during USB transfers, but in
reality such interference is quite rare. There's nothing really wrong
with giving up right away.
but imon has a poor error-recovery scheme which just retries forever;
this behavior should be fixed.
Since I'm not sure whether it is safe for imon users to give up upon any
error code, this patch takes care of only union of error codes chosen from
modules in drivers/media/rc/ directory which handle -EPROTO error (i.e.
ir_toy, mceusb and igorplugusb).
Second problem is that when usb_rx_callback_intf0() once got -EPROTO error
before ictx->dev_present_intf0 becomes true, usb_rx_callback_intf0() always
resubmits urb due to commit 8791d63af0cf ("[media] imon: don't wedge
hardware after early callbacks"). Move the ictx->dev_present_intf0 test
introduced by commit 6f6b90c9231a ("[media] imon: don't parse scancodes
until intf configured") to immediately before imon_incoming_packet(), or
the first problem explained above happens without printk() flooding (i.e.
hung task).
Third problem is that when usb_rx_callback_intf0() is not called for some
reason (e.g. flaky hardware; the reproducer for this problem sometimes
prevents usb_rx_callback_intf0() from being called),
wait_for_completion_interruptible() in send_packet() never returns (i.e.
hung task). As a workaround for such situation, change send_packet() to
wait for completion with timeout of 10 seconds. |
