| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: wm_adsp: Fix NULL dereference when removing firmware controls
In wm_adsp_control_remove() check that the priv pointer is not NULL
before attempting to cleanup what it points to.
When cs_dsp creates a control it calls wm_adsp_control_add_cb() so that
wm_adsp can create its own private control data. There are two cases
where private data is not created:
1. The control is a SYSTEM control, so an ALSA control is not created.
2. The codec driver has registered a control_add() callback that
hides the control, so wm_adsp_control_add() is not called.
When cs_dsp_remove destroys its control list it calls
wm_adsp_control_remove() for each control. But wm_adsp_control_remove()
was attempting to cleanup the private data pointed to by cs_ctl->priv
without checking the pointer for NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack: destroy stale expectfn expectations on unregister
NAT helpers such as nf_nat_h323 store a raw pointer to module text in
exp->expectfn (e.g. ip_nat_q931_expect). nf_ct_helper_expectfn_unregister()
only unlinks the callback descriptor and never walks the expectation table,
so an expectation pending at module removal survives with a dangling
exp->expectfn into freed module text.
When the expected connection arrives, init_conntrack() invokes
exp->expectfn(), now a stale pointer into the unloaded module. Reproduced
on a KASAN build by loading the H.323 helpers, creating a Q.931
expectation, unloading nf_nat_h323, then connecting to the expected port:
Oops: int3: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI

Modules linked in: nf_conntrack_h323 [last unloaded: nf_nat_h323]
Reaching the dangling state requires CAP_SYS_MODULE in the initial user
namespace to remove a NAT helper that still has live expectations, so this
is a robustness fix; leaving an expectation pointing at freed text is wrong
regardless.
Add nf_ct_helper_expectfn_destroy(), which walks the expectation table and
drops every expectation whose ->expectfn matches the descriptor being torn
down. Call it from each NAT helper's exit path after the existing RCU grace
period, so no expectation outlives the code it points at and no extra
synchronize_rcu() is introduced. With the fix, the same reproducer runs to
completion without the Oops. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: SDCA: fix NULL pointer dereference in sdca_dev_unregister_functions
sdca_dev_unregister_functions() iterates over all SDCA function
descriptors and calls sdca_dev_unregister() on each func_dev without
checking for NULL. When a function registration has failed partway
through, or the device cleanup races with probe deferral, func_dev
entries may be NULL, leading to a kernel oops:

This was observed on a Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon G14 (Panther Lake)
with the SOF audio driver probe failing due to missing Panther Lake
firmware, causing the subsequent cleanup of SoundWire devices to
trigger the crash.
Fix this with three changes:
1) Add a NULL guard in sdca_dev_unregister() so that callers do not
need to pre-validate the pointer (defense in depth).
2) In sdca_dev_unregister_functions(), skip NULL func_dev entries
and clear func_dev to NULL after unregistration, making the
function idempotent and safe against double-invocation.
3) In sdca_dev_register_functions(), roll back all previously
registered functions when a later one fails, so the function
array is never left in a partially-populated state. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/virtio: Fix driver removal with disabled KMS
DRM atomic and modesetting aren't initialized if virtio-gpu driver built
with disabled KMS, leading to access of uninitialized data on driver
removal/unbinding and crashing kernel. Fix it by skipping shutting down
atomic core with unavailable KMS. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rust: arm64: set uwtable llvm module flag for CONFIG_UNWIND_TABLES
Due to a rustc bug [1] the -Cforce-unwind-tables=y flag only emits the
uwtable annotation for functions, but not for the module. This means
that compiler-generated functions such as 'asan.module_ctor' do not
receive the uwtable annotation.
When CONFIG_UNWIND_PATCH_PAC_INTO_SCS is enabled, this leads to boot
failures because the dwarf information emitted for the kasan
constructors is wrong, which causes the SCS boot patching code to
patch the constructor in an illegal manner. Specifically, the paciasp
instruction is patched, but the autiasp instruction is not. This
mismatch leads to a crash when the constructor is called during boot.
==================================================================
BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in do_basic_setup+0x4c/0x90
Read of size 8 at addr ffffffe3cc7eb488 by task swapper/0/1
Specifically the faulting instruction is the (*fn)() to invoke the
constructor in do_ctors() of the init/main.c file.
Once the fix lands in rustc, this flag can be made conditional on the
rustc version. Note that passing the flag on a rustc with the fix
present has no effect.
[ The fix [1] has landed for Rust 1.98.0 (expected release on
2026-08-20).
Thus add a version check as discussed.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: Don't WARN if memory is dirtied without a vCPU when the VM is dying
When marking a page dirty, complain about not having a running/loaded vCPU
if and only if the VM is still alive, i.e. its refcount is non-zero. This
will allow fixing a memory leak for x86 SEV-ES guests without hitting what
is effectively a false positive on the WARN.
For some SEV-ES VM-Exits, KVM keeps a writable mapping of a guest page
across an exit to userspace, and typically unmaps the page on the next
KVM_RUN. But if userspace never calls KVM_RUN after such an exit, then KVM
needs to unmap the page when the vCPU is destroyed, which in turn triggers
the WARN about not having a running vCPU.
Alternatively, SEV-ES could temporarily load the vCPU to suppress the WARN,
as is done in nested_vmx_free_vcpu() (but for completely unrelated reasons;
suppressing WARN from nested_put_vmcs12_pages() is pure happenstance). But
loading a vCPU during destruction is gross (ideally nVMX code would be
cleaned up), risks complicating the SEV-ES code (KVM would need to ensure
the temporarily load()+put() only runs when the vCPU isn't already loaded),
and is ultimately pointless.
The motivation for the WARN is to guard against KVM dirtying guest memory
without pushing the corresponding GFN to the active vCPU's dirty ring, e.g.
to ensure userspace doesn't miss a dirty page. But for the VM's refcount
to reach zero, there can't be _any_ userspace mappings to the dirty ring,
as mapping the dirty ring requires doing mmap() on the vCPU FD. I.e. if
userspace had a valid mapping for the dirty ring, then the vCPU file and
thus the owning VM would still be alive. And so since userspace can't
possibly reach the dirty ring, whether or not KVM technically "misses" a
push to the dirty ring is irrelevant. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: mcp23s08: Initialize mcp->dev and mcp->addr before regmap init
Regmap initialization triggers regcache_maple_populate() which attempts
SPI read to populate cache. SPI read requires mcp->dev and mcp->addr to
be set, without them, NULL pointer dereference occurs during probe.
Move initialization before mcp23s08_spi_regmap_init() call. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ARM: 9475/1: entry: use byte load for KASAN VMAP stack shadow
Commit 44e9a3bb76e5 ("ARM: 9430/1: entry: Do a dummy read from
VMAP shadow") added a dummy read from the KASAN VMAP stack shadow in
__switch_to(). The read uses ldr, but the KASAN shadow address is
byte-granular and is not guaranteed to be word aligned.
ARMv5 faults unaligned word loads. With CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC and
CONFIG_VMAP_STACK enabled, ARM926/VersatilePB crashes in __switch_to()
with an alignment exception before reaching init.
Use ldrb for the dummy shadow access. The code only needs to fault in the
shadow mapping if the stack shadow is missing, so a byte load is sufficient
and matches the granularity of KASAN shadow memory. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: mm: call pagetable dtor when freeing hot-removed page tables
Since 5e8eb9aeeda3 ("arm64: mm: always call PTE/PMD ctor in
__create_pgd_mapping()") page-table allocation on ARM64 always calls
pagetable_{pte,pmd,pud,p4d}_ctor(). This sets the page_type to
PGTY_table, increments NR_PAGETABLE and possible allocates a PTL. However
the matching pagetable_dtor() calls were never added.
With DEBUG_VM enabled on kernel versions prior to v6.17 without
2dfcd1608f3a9 ("mm/page_alloc: let page freeing clear any set page type")
this leads to the following warning when freeing these pages due to
page->page_type sharing page->_mapcount:
BUG: Bad page state in process ... pfn:284fbb

It can also lead to leaking the ptl allocation if ALLOC_SPLIT_PTLOCKS is
defined and incorrect NR_PAGETABLE stats. Fix this by calling
pagetable_dtor() in free_hotplug_pgtable_page() prior to freeing the page
to undo the effects of calling pagetable_*_ctor(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fhandle: fix UAF due to unlocked ->mnt_ns read in may_decode_fh()
may_decode_fh() accesses mount::mnt_ns without holding any locks; that
means the mount can concurrently be unmounted, and the mnt_namespace can
concurrently be freed after an RCU grace period.
This race can happens as follows, assuming that the mount point was
created by open_tree(..., OPEN_TREE_CLONE):

call_rcu(mnt_ns_release_rcu)
mnt_ns_release_rcu

[mnt_namespace::user_ns access] **UAF**
Fix it by taking rcu_read_lock() around the mount::mnt_ns access, like
in __prepend_path().
Additionally, document the semantics of mount::mnt_ns, and use WRITE_ONCE()
for writers that can race with lockless readers.
This bug is unreachable unless one of the following is set:
- CONFIG_PREEMPTION
- CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD
because it requires an RCU grace period to happen during a syscall without
an explicit preemption.
This doesn't seem to have interesting security impact; worst-case, it could
leak the result of an integer comparison to userspace (from the level
check in cap_capable()), cause an endless loop, or crash the kernel by
dereferencing an invalid address. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: imx: fix clock and pinctrl state inconsistency in runtime PM
In i2c_imx_runtime_suspend(), the clock is disabled before switching
the pinctrl state to sleep. If pinctrl_pm_select_sleep_state() fails,
the runtime suspend is aborted but the clock remains disabled, causing
a system crash when the hardware is subsequently accessed.
Fix this by switching the pinctrl state before disabling the clock so
that a pinctrl failure leaves the clock enabled and the hardware
accessible.
In i2c_imx_runtime_resume(), restore the pinctrl state back to sleep
if clk_enable() fails to keep the consistent. |

i2c: qcom-cci: Fix NULL pointer dereference in cci_remove()
On all modern platforms Qualcomm CCI controller provides two I2C masters,
and on particular boards only one I2C master may be initialized, and in
such cases the device unbinding or driver removal causes a NULL pointer
dereference, because cci_halt() is called for all two I2C masters, but
a completion is initialized only for the single enabled master:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: airoha: Add NULL check for of_reserved_mem_lookup() in airoha_qdma_init_hfwd_queues()
of_reserved_mem_lookup() may return NULL if the reserved memory region
referenced by the "memory-region" phandle is not found in the reserved
memory table (e.g. due to a misconfigured DTS or a removed
memory-region node). The current code dereferences the returned
pointer without checking for NULL, leading to a kernel NULL pointer
dereference at the following lines:
dma_addr = rmem->base; // line 1156
num_desc = div_u64(rmem->size, buf_size); // line 1160
Add a NULL check after of_reserved_mem_lookup() and return -ENODEV if
the lookup fails, which is consistent with the existing error handling
for of_parse_phandle() failure in the same code block. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bonding: fix NULL pointer dereference in bond_do_ioctl()
In bond_do_ioctl(), slave_dev is obtained via __dev_get_by_name() which
can return NULL if the requested interface name does not exist. However,
the subsequent slave_dbg() call is placed before the NULL check:
slave_dev = __dev_get_by_name(net, ifr->ifr_slave);
slave_dbg(bond_dev, slave_dev, "slave_dev=%p:\n", slave_dev); //here
if (!slave_dev)
return -ENODEV;
The slave_dbg() macro expands to netdev_dbg(bond_dev, "(slave %s): " fmt,
(slave_dev)->name, ...) which unconditionally dereferences slave_dev->name
before the NULL check is performed. This results in a NULL pointer
dereference kernel oops when a user calls bonding ioctl (e.g.
SIOCBONDENSLAVE, SIOCBONDRELEASE, etc.) with a non-existent slave
interface name.
This is reachable from userspace via the bonding ioctl interface with
CAP_NET_ADMIN capability, making it a potential local denial-of-service
vector.
Fix by moving the slave_dbg() call after the NULL check. |

nvmem: layouts: onie-tlv: fix hang on unknown types

mm/damon/lru_sort: handle ctx allocation failure
DAMON_LRU_SORT allocates the damon_ctx object for its kdamond in its init
function. damon_lru_sort_enabled_store() wrongly assumes the allocation
will always succeed once tried. If the damon_ctx allocation was failed,
therefore, code execution reaches to damon_commit_ctx() while 'ctx' is
NULL. As a result, it dereferences the NULL 'ctx' pointer. Avoid the
NULL dereference by returning -ENOMEM if 'ctx' is NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/reclaim: handle ctx allocation failure
Patch series "mm/damon/{reclaim,lru_sort}: handle ctx allocation failures".
DAMON_RECLAIM and DAMON_LRU_SORT could dereference NULL pointers if their
damon_ctx object allocations fail. The bugs are expected to happen
infrequently because the allocations are arguably too small to fail on
common setups. But theoretically they are possible and the consequences
are bad. Fix those.
The issues were discovered [1] by Sashiko.
This patch (of 2):
DAMON_RECLAIM allocates the damon_ctx object for its kdamond in its init
function. damon_reclaim_enabled_store() wrongly assumes the allocation
will always succeed once tried. If the damon_ctx allocation was failed,
therefore, code execution reaches to damon_commit_ctx() while 'ctx' is
NULL. As a result, it dereferences the NULL 'ctx' pointer. Avoid the
NULL dereference by returning -ENOMEM if 'ctx' is NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/mincore: handle non-swap entries before !CONFIG_SWAP guard
mincore_swap() also fields migration/hwpoison entries (and shmem
swapin-error entries), which can exist on !CONFIG_SWAP builds when
CONFIG_MIGRATION or CONFIG_MEMORY_FAILURE is enabled. The
!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_SWAP) guard ran before the non-swap-entry early return,
so mincore_pte_range() can spuriously WARN and report these pages
nonresident on !CONFIG_SWAP kernels.
Move the guard below the non-swap-entry check so only true swap entries
trip the WARN, and migration/hwpoison entries take the existing "uptodate
/ non-shmem" path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
slimbus: qcom-ngd-ctrl: Register callbacks after creating the ngd
When the remoteproc starts in parallel with the NGD driver being probed,
or the remoteproc is already up when the PDR lookup is being registered,
or in the theoretical event that we get an interrupt from the hardware,
these callbacks will operate on uninitialized data. This result in
issues to boot the affected boards.
One such example can be seen in the following fault, where
qcom_slim_ngd_ssr_pdr_notify() schedules work on the NULL ngd_up_work.

slimbus: qcom-ngd-ctrl: Avoid ABBA on tx_lock/ctrl->lock
During the SSR/PDR down notification the tx_lock is taken with the
intent to provide synchronization with active DMA transfers.
But during this period qcom_slim_ngd_down() is invoked, which ends up in
slim_report_absent(), which takes the slim_controller lock. In multiple
other codepaths these two locks are taken in the opposite order (i.e.
slim_controller then tx_lock).
The result is a lockdep splat, and a possible deadlock:
rprocctl/449 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff00009793e620 (&ctrl->lock){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: slim_report_absent (drivers/slimbus/core.c:322) slimbus
but task is already holding lock:
ffff00009793fb50 (&ctrl->tx_lock){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: qcom_slim_ngd_ssr_pdr_notify (drivers/slimbus/qcom-ngd-ctrl.c:1475) slim_qcom_ngd_ctrl
which lock already depends on the new lock.
Possible unsafe locking scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&ctrl->tx_lock);
lock(&ctrl->lock);
lock(&ctrl->tx_lock);
lock(&ctrl->lock);
The assumption is that the comment refers to the desire to not call
qcom_slim_ngd_exit_dma() while we have an ongoing DMA TX transaction.
But any such transaction is initiated and completed within a single
qcom_slim_ngd_xfer_msg().
Prior to calling qcom_slim_ngd_exit_dma() the slim_controller is torn
down, all child devices are notified that the slimbus is gone and the
child devices are removed.
Stop taking the tx_lock in qcom_slim_ngd_ssr_pdr_notify() to avoid the
deadlock. |
