In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7925: ensure tx headroom in usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skb mt7925_usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skb() pushes a TX descriptor and a USB header onto every skb and assumes the headroom for them is already there. That holds for locally generated traffic, where mac80211 reserves hw->extra_tx_headroom, but forwarded frames are sent through ieee80211_8023_xmit(), which does not reserve it. Bridge a wired interface to an mt7925u AP and the first forwarded frame that arrives short panics the kernel: skbuff: skb_under_panic: len:415 put:4 tail:0x19b end:0x640 dev:wlan1 kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:212!

Reproduced on a Raspberry Pi 5 bridging onboard ethernet to a Netgear A9000; originally reported on an MT7986 router running OpenWrt. Nick Morrow's testing on a Pi 4 (bcmgenet), which leaves more headroom, helped narrow the trigger to the ingress path. The same bug was fixed on mt7921 by commit 98c4d0abf5c4 ("mt76: mt7921: don't assume adequate headroom for SDIO headers"), but mt7925 was copied from mt7921 without the fix. Add the same guard here.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rndis_host: add overflow check in rndis_rx_fixup() Add an overflow check to ensure that data_offset + data_len + 8 does not wrap, which would enable an OOB read of the USB data buffer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: llcp: bound the connect_sn TLV walk to the skb Commit 27256cdb290e ("nfc: llcp: bound SNL TLV parsing to the skb and add length checks") fixed the unbounded TLV walk in nfc_llcp_recv_snl(), and commit d8bd2dedbde5 ("nfc: llcp: fix OOB read and u8 offset wrap in TLV parsers") subsequently bounded nfc_llcp_parse_gb_tlv() and nfc_llcp_parse_connection_tlv(). One sibling parser sharing the same pattern remains unbounded: nfc_llcp_connect_sn(). nfc_llcp_connect_sn() walks a TLV list, reading a two-byte header (type, length) followed by length bytes of value, without checking that the two header bytes or the declared length stay within the buffer. It returns a pointer to a service name of up to 255 bytes that may point past the end of the skb; it is subsequently consumed by memcmp() in nfc_llcp_sock_from_sn(). In addition tlv_array_len was computed as "skb->len - LLCP_HEADER_SIZE" in size_t, so a CONNECT/CC frame shorter than the LLCP header underflows to a huge length and the walk runs far past the buffer. nfc_llcp_connect_sn() is reachable from nfc_llcp_recv_connect() and nfc_llcp_recv_cc(), i.e. from received CONNECT and CC PDUs. A nearby NFC device can reach this without authentication; LLCP link activation happens automatically after NFC-DEP, and the nfc_llcp_rx_skb() dispatcher applies no minimum-length guard. Walk the TLV list by pointer, bounded by skb_tail_pointer(skb), and validate each declared length before use, matching the approach already used for nfc_llcp_recv_snl(). Starting the walk at &skb->data[LLCP_HEADER_SIZE] against the tail pointer also removes the size_t underflow for short frames. Found by 0sec automated security-research tooling (https://0sec.ai).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: llcp: reject PDUs shorter than the LLCP header Every LLCP PDU begins with a two-byte header (DSAP/SSAP + PTYPE), but the receive path never checked that a frame is at least LLCP_HEADER_SIZE bytes before parsing it. nfc_llcp_rx_skb() reads the header via nfc_llcp_ptype()/nfc_llcp_dsap()/ nfc_llcp_ssap(), which dereference pdu->data[0] and pdu->data[1], and a CONNECT or CC PDU then computes tlv_array_len = skb->len - LLCP_HEADER_SIZE; as a size_t and hands it to the TLV walk. When the frame is shorter than the header the subtraction wraps to a huge value and the walk runs far past the buffer, an out-of-bounds read. A nearby NFC device can reach this without authentication; LLCP link activation happens automatically after NFC-DEP. Guard the common receive choke point __nfc_llcp_recv(), shared by both the target (nfc_llcp_data_received()) and initiator (nfc_llcp_recv()) paths, so a short skb is dropped before the rx_work worker parses it. Use pskb_may_pull() rather than a skb->len test so the two header bytes are guaranteed to sit in the skb linear area even for a non-linear skb, matching how the sibling NCI and HCI receive paths validate their headers. Reproduced with a KFENCE out-of-bounds read via /dev/virtual_nci on linux-next. Found by 0sec automated security-research tooling (https://0sec.ai).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: nci: fix out-of-bounds write in nci_target_auto_activated() nci_target_auto_activated() appends a target to the fixed-size array ndev->targets[NCI_MAX_DISCOVERED_TARGETS] and increments ndev->n_targets without first checking the array is full; unlike its sibling nci_add_new_target(), which bails out when n_targets already equals NCI_MAX_DISCOVERED_TARGETS. ndev->n_targets is only cleared by nci_clear_target_list(), so an NFCC that repeatedly re-runs discovery (RF_DISCOVER_RSP, which re-enters NCI_DISCOVERY without clearing the target list) and reports an auto-activated target (RF_INTF_ACTIVATED_NTF) drives n_targets past the limit. The append then writes a struct nfc_target past the end of the array (a slab out-of-bounds write), and nfc_targets_found() goes on to walk the array with the inflated count: BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in nci_add_new_protocol+0x94/0x2ac [nci] Write of size 2 at addr ffff0000c7299a18 by task kworker/u8:0/12 Workqueue: nfc0_nci_rx_wq nci_rx_work [nci] Call trace: nci_add_new_protocol+0x94/0x2ac [nci] nci_ntf_packet+0xddc/0x11a0 [nci] nci_rx_work+0x15c/0x1e0 [nci] process_one_work+0x2dc/0x500 worker_thread+0x240/0x460 kthread+0x1c0/0x1d0 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 The buggy address belongs to the cache kmalloc-2k of size 2048 The buggy address is located 1024 bytes to the right of allocated 1560-byte region [ffff0000c7299000, ffff0000c7299618) Guard nci_target_auto_activated() with the same check used by nci_add_new_target().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: nci: fix uninit-value in the RF discover/activated NTF handlers nci_rf_discover_ntf_packet() and nci_rf_intf_activated_ntf_packet() each parse a notification into an on-stack struct (nci_rf_discover_ntf / nci_rf_intf_activated_ntf) that is not initialised. The RF technology-specific parameters are only extracted when rf_tech_specific_params_len is non-zero, so a notification that reports a zero length leaves the rf_tech_specific_params union uninitialised - and both handlers then pass it to nci_add_new_protocol(), which reads it: - discover: nci_add_new_target() -> nci_add_new_protocol(); - activated: nci_target_auto_activated() -> nci_add_new_protocol(). nci_add_new_protocol() uses nfca_poll->nfcid1_len as both a branch condition and a memcpy() length and copies nfcid1/sens_res/sel_res into ndev->targets, which is later exposed to user space via NFC_CMD_GET_TARGET.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mptcp: pm: fix memory leak from alloc-during-teardown race mptcp_pm_destroy() empties msk->pm.anno_list and msk->pm.userspace_pm_local_addr_list under msk->pm.lock during socket teardown, dropping the lock between the two. A concurrent userspace PM genl ANNOUNCE on the same msk holds a sock reference via mptcp_token_get_sock() and, in mptcp_pm_nl_announce_doit(), calls mptcp_userspace_pm_append_new_local_addr() and mptcp_pm_announced_alloc(). Both take msk->pm.lock briefly to add to their respective lists. Because the genl handler holds a sock reference, mptcp_pm_destroy() may run on the same msk via mptcp_disconnect(), which invokes mptcp_destroy_common() without dropping the sock refcount, before the handler completes. If the lock acquisitions interleave such that mptcp_pm_destroy() empties a list first, the later alloc adds its entry to a list head that nothing else iterates for this msk, and the entry leaks. kmemleak reports both mptcp_pm_add_addr objects (from mptcp_pm_announced_alloc()) and mptcp_pm_addr_entry objects (from mptcp_userspace_pm_append_new_local_addr()) under sustained concurrent ANNOUNCE + close load against the userspace PM. Add an MPTCP_PM_DESTROYING bit in msk->pm.status, set by mptcp_pm_destroy() under pm.lock before the lists are emptied and checked under pm.lock by the alloc paths. Either the alloc takes pm.lock first, in which case its entry is on the list when mptcp_pm_destroy() frees it; or mptcp_pm_destroy() takes pm.lock first, in which case the later alloc observes the bit and refuses. Found by an MPTCP protocol-flow harness extending BRF (arXiv:2305.08782).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/ionic: avoid OOB TX partner lookup for hwstamp RXQ The dedicated hardware timestamp RX queue is allocated with q->index equal to lif->ionic->nrxqs_per_lif. The normal txqcqs array only contains the regular queue pairs, so using that index to set rxq->partner can read one entry past txqcqs[] and then write through the derived pointer. Only link RX/TX partners for normal queue-pair indexes. Leave the hwstamp RX queue unpaired, and make the XDP_TX path abort cleanly if an RX queue has no TX partner.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: hci_event: fix LE list UAF on reset hci_cc_reset() clears the LE accept and resolving lists without taking hdev->lock. Other command-complete handlers serialize updates to these lists with that lock, and the debugfs readers hold it while walking them. This permits the reset completion and a debugfs read to interleave as follows: hci_rx_work debugfs reader ----------- -------------- lock hdev->lock fetch current entry list_del(entry) kfree(entry) read entry fields The reader then dereferences a freed list entry and may follow its stale next pointer.

This matches the existing mutation and traversal locking convention.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: nintendo: fix out-of-bounds read in joycon_ctlr_read_handler() joycon_ctlr_read_handler() casts an incoming HID input report to struct joycon_input_report and parses it, guarding the cast only with a 12-byte length check: if (size >= 12) /* make sure it contains the input report */ joycon_parse_report(ctlr, (struct joycon_input_report *)data); struct joycon_input_report is 49 bytes: a 13-byte header followed by a union whose IMU arm is 36 bytes. For an IMU report joycon_parse_report() -> joycon_parse_imu_report() walks that union (struct offsets 13..48), so a report of exactly 12 bytes with data[0] == JC_INPUT_IMU_DATA passes the guard yet is read up to 37 bytes past its declared length. The over-read bytes are decoded into accelerometer/gyroscope values and forwarded to userspace through the "(IMU)" input device, leaking driver-internal memory. data[0] and size are fully controlled by a malicious or spoofed Joy-Con/Pro Controller. Receive buffers are sized to the maximum report length, so this is an over-read within the allocation rather than a slab OOB, but the decoded bytes still reach userspace. The sibling subcmd path in joycon_ctlr_handle_event() already bounds the same cast correctly: if (size < sizeof(struct joycon_input_report) || data[0] != JC_INPUT_SUBCMD_REPLY) break; Use the same sizeof(struct joycon_input_report) bound here.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: futex: Fix race in futex_pivot_pending() during private hash resize A task performing a custom private hash resize can remain blocked in uninterruptible sleep indefinitely. The hung-task detector reports: INFO: task futex-resizer:314 blocked for more than 10 seconds. task:futex-resizer state:D stack:14824 pid:314 tgid:312 ppid:311 Call Trace: __schedule+0x521/0xf30 schedule+0x22/0xa0 futex_hash_allocate+0x3db/0x490 __do_sys_prctl+0x6f5/0xbd0 do_syscall_64+0xf9/0x530 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f Kernel panic - not syncing: hung_task: blocked tasks futex_pivot_pending() allows the resize request to continue when either no replacement hash is pending (hash_new == NULL) or the current hash reference count has reached zero. After the final-reference wake, another futex task can complete the pivot between the two observations: T1 T2 futex_hash_allocate() wait_var_event(mm, ...) futex_pivot_pending(mm) hash_new != NULL futex_hash() futex_ref_get(old) -> false futex_pivot_hash(mm) hash_new = NULL __futex_pivot_hash(mm, new) rcu_assign_pointer(hash, new) fph = rcu_dereference(hash) /* new */ futex_ref_is_dead(fph) -> false schedule() The pivot changes the state from hash_new != NULL with a dead current hash to hash_new == NULL with a live current hash. Because futex_pivot_pending() reads hash_new and hash without serialization, the resize task can observe hash_new in the pre-pivot state and hash in the post-pivot state, causing futex_pivot_pending() to return false even though the pivot has completed. The task then goes to sleep after the wakeup has already been consumed. Serialize state reads in futex_pivot_pending() using futex_mm_phash::lock. This guarantees that futex_pivot_pending() observes hash_new and hash atomically, eliminating the race condition.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: pidff: fix OOB write when hid->inputs is empty hid_pidff_init_with_quirks() derives its input_dev from list_entry(hid->inputs.next, struct hid_input, list) without first checking that hid->inputs is non-empty. The list member of struct hid_input is at offset 0, so on an empty list list_entry() yields &hid->inputs itself and the following hidinput->input load reads an unrelated member of struct hid_device. dev is then a type-confused pointer, and force-feedback init writes through it: each set_bit(FF_*, dev->ffbit) stores 8 bytes at dev + 192, past the end of the object dev actually aliases, and input_ff_create() adds further writes of a heap pointer and two function pointers. Until hid-universal-pidff the only caller was hid_pidff_init() from usbhid, which runs under HID_CLAIMED_INPUT and therefore always has at least one hid_input. universal_pidff_probe() starts the device with HID_CONNECT_DEFAULT & ~HID_CONNECT_FF and then calls hid_pidff_init_with_quirks() directly whenever the descriptor carries a PID usage page, bypassing that gate. A report descriptor whose only application collection is on HID_UP_PID leaves hid->inputs empty while hid_connect() still succeeds through the hidraw claim, so probe reaches the unguarded list_entry(). The write happens in the USB probe path, on the hotplug workqueue, so plugging in a malicious device is enough to trigger it; no attacker software and no logged-in user are required. KASAN reports an 8-byte out-of-bounds write in hid_pidff_init_with_quirks() reached from universal_pidff_probe(). Check for an empty list before deriving dev and return -ENODEV, as the other HID force-feedback drivers already do. universal_pidff_probe() propagates the error and unwinds. Discovered by XBOW, triaged by Baul Lee <baul.lee@xbow.com>

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/rxe: Fix responder UAF on IB_QP_MAX_DEST_RD_ATOMIC modify_qp rxe_qp_from_attr() handles IB_QP_MAX_DEST_RD_ATOMIC outside the IB_QP_STATE path, so it holds no state_lock and runs while the responder task rxe_receiver() (recv_task on rxe_wq) is live. A modify_qp() setting only that attribute calls free_rd_atomic_resources() then alloc_rd_atomic_resources(), swapping qp->resp.resources[] while rxe_prepare_res()/find_resource() walk it; free_rd_atomic_resources() also leaves the cached pointer qp->resp.res dangling. A local unprivileged user can race the free/realloc into a use-after-free in rxe_receiver() (local DoS). Drain recv_task around the swap with rxe_disable_task()/rxe_enable_task(), as rxe_qp_reset() already does when tearing this array down, re-enabling only after alloc_rd_atomic_resources() succeeds so the responder never resumes against a NULL qp->resp.resources on the ENOMEM path. Also clear qp->resp.res in free_rd_atomic_resources(), like the rxe_resp.c completion paths. Reproduced under KASAN; the slab-use-after-free in rxe_receiver() is gone.
