Description
Michael Randrianantenaina discovered that the Bluetooth driver in the Linux Kernel contained an improper access control vulnerability. A nearby attacker could use this to connect a rougue device and possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-8805) Attila Szász discovered that the HFS+ file system implementation in the Linux Kernel contained a heap overflow vulnerability. An attacker could use a specially crafted file system image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2025-0927) Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - ARM32 architecture; - ARM64 architecture; - x86 architecture; - Block layer subsystem; - Cryptographic API; - ACPI drivers; - Drivers core; - ATA over ethernet (AOE) driver; - Network block device driver; - Ublk userspace block driver; - Compressed RAM block device driver; - TPM device driver; - CPU frequency scaling framework; - Hardware crypto device drivers; - DAX dirext access to differentiated memory framework; - ARM SCMI message protocol; - EFI core; - GPU drivers; - HID subsystem; - I2C subsystem; - I3C subsystem; - IIO subsystem; - InfiniBand drivers; - Input Device core drivers; - IOMMU subsystem; - IRQ chip drivers; - Mailbox framework; - Media drivers; - Ethernet bonding driver; - Network drivers; - Mellanox network drivers; - STMicroelectronics network drivers; - NTB driver; - Virtio pmem driver; - Parport drivers; - PCI subsystem; - Alibaba DDR Sub-System Driveway PMU driver; - Pin controllers subsystem; - x86 platform drivers; - Powercap sysfs driver; - Remote Processor subsystem; - SCSI subsystem; - SuperH / SH-Mobile drivers; - Direct Digital Synthesis drivers; - Thermal drivers; - TTY drivers; - UFS subsystem; - USB Device Class drivers; - USB Gadget drivers; - USB Host Controller drivers; - TI TPS6598x USB Power Delivery controller driver; - vDPA drivers; - Virtio Host (VHOST) subsystem; - Framebuffer layer; - AFS file system; - BTRFS file system; - File systems infrastructure; - Ceph distributed file system; - Ext4 file system; - F2FS file system; - JFS file system; - Network file systems library; - Network file system (NFS) client; - Network file system (NFS) server daemon; - NILFS2 file system; - NTFS3 file system; - SMB network file system; - BPF subsystem; - Network file system (NFS) superblock; - Virtio network driver; - Network namespace; - Network traffic control; - Network sockets; - TCP network protocol; - User-space API (UAPI); - io_uring subsystem; - Perf events; - Kernel thread helper (kthread); - Padata parallel execution mechanism; - RCU subsystem; - Arbitrary resource management; - Static call mechanism; - Timer subsystem; - Tracing infrastructure; - Maple Tree data structure library; - Memory management; - Bluetooth subsystem; - Ethernet bridge; - CAN network layer; - Networking core; - Distributed Switch Architecture; - IPv4 networking; - IPv6 networking; - MAC80211 subsystem; - IEEE 802.15.4 subsystem; - Multipath TCP; - NCSI (Network Controller Sideband Interface) driver; - Netfilter; - Netlink; - RxRPC session sockets; - SCTP protocol; - TIPC protocol; - Unix domain sockets; - Wireless networking; - eXpress Data Path; - AudioScience HPI driver; - KVM core; (CVE-2024-49950, CVE-2024-49955, CVE-2024-50077, CVE-2024-57798, CVE-2024-47671, CVE-2024-49987, CVE-2024-50078, CVE-2024-49985, CVE-2024-49981, CVE-2024-49852, CVE-2024-49882, CVE-2024-49925, CVE-2024-50047, CVE-2024-47752, CVE-2024-49851, CVE-2024-50229, CVE-2024-47675, CVE-2024-50017, CVE-2024-47726, CVE-2024-50008, CVE-2024-49889, CVE-2024-50059, CVE-2024-53144, CVE-2024-49959, CVE-2024-49886, CVE-2024-50035, CVE-2024-50036, CVE-2024-47713, CVE-2024-47720, CVE-2024-47756, CVE-2024-49974, CVE-2024-49864, CVE-2024-47688, CVE-2024-47735, CVE-2024-50060, CVE-2024-50182, CVE-2024-49894, CVE-2024-50002, CVE-2024-47748, CVE-2024-49949, CVE-2024-47757, CVE-2024-47678, CVE-2024-47737, CVE-2024-49880, CVE-2024-50093, CVE-2024-49914, CVE-2024-50048, CVE-2024-56658, CVE-2024-50058, CVE-2024-49995, CVE-2024-50096, CVE-2024-49877, CVE-2024-47715, CVE-2024-50007, CVE-2024-56614, CVE-2024-49948, CVE-2024-49935, CVE-2024-50009, CVE-2024-50200, CVE-2024-50070, CVE-2024-49856, CVE-2024-50005, CVE-2024-49865, CVE-2024-50085, CVE-2024-49892, CVE-2024-53063, CVE-2024-47695, CVE-2024-49991, CVE-2024-47687, CVE-2024-53140, CVE-2024-50179, CVE-2024-47682, CVE-2024-50080, CVE-2024-50056, CVE-2024-47690, CVE-2024-49939, CVE-2024-56663, CVE-2024-49913, CVE-2024-47745, CVE-2024-47739, CVE-2024-49920, CVE-2024-47704, CVE-2024-50068, CVE-2024-49876, CVE-2024-49992, CVE-2024-49980, CVE-2024-49907, CVE-2024-50019
