In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm6: fix out-of-bounds write in xfrm6_input_addr() when secpath is full
The depth check in xfrm6_input_addr() is off by one:
if (1 + sp->len == XFRM_MAX_DEPTH)
goto drop;
...
sp->xvec[sp->len++] = x;
xfrm_input() can leave sp->len == XFRM_MAX_DEPTH, and the transport-mode
receive path re-enters IPv6 input via xfrm_trans_reinject() with that
secpath preserved. If the inner packet carries a destination-options HAO
option or a type-2 routing header, xfrm6_input_addr() is called with
sp->len == XFRM_MAX_DEPTH; the check (1 + 6 == 6) is false, so
sp->xvec[sp->len++] writes one slot past the 6-element xvec[]. The write
stays within the sec_path allocation (invisible to KASAN); UBSAN_BOUNDS
flags it and panics under panic_on_warn.
Use "sp->len >= XFRM_MAX_DEPTH", matching xfrm_input(). This also
restores one chain level the old check rejected at sp->len == 5.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
isofs: fix out-of-bounds page array access on empty zisofs block
zisofs_uncompress_block()'s empty-block fast path returns
pcount << PAGE_SHIFT, ignoring the incoming poffset, unlike the
decompression path which returns bytes produced relative to poffset.
zisofs_fill_pages() uses that return to advance its page cursor, so when
the zisofs block size is below PAGE_SIZE and a sub-page block leaves
poffset partway into a page, a following empty block over-counts and
advances pages[] one element past its end, after which
"if (poffset && *pages)" reads pages[1] out of bounds. rock.c only
rejects a block-size shift > 17, so a crafted "ZF" Rock Ridge record can
set it below PAGE_SHIFT; the bug is reached by an ordinary read() of a
compressed file on such a mounted ISO9660 image.
Return the byte count relative to poffset and zero only
[poffset, PAGE_SIZE) of the first page, matching the decompression path.
The page-aligned case (poffset == 0) is unaffected.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix tree connection use-after-free in smb2_tree_connect()
ksmbd_tree_conn_connect() publishes a new tree connection in
sess->tree_conns with a single reference and returns its pointer to
smb2_tree_connect(). The handler continues to initialize the object and
build the response after publication. A concurrent session logoff can
erase the connection and drop that reference, freeing the object while
the handler still uses it.

After xa_store() succeeds, take a second reference before releasing
tree_conns_lock. The original reference belongs to the xarray entry and
the second belongs to the creating smb2_tree_connect() handler.
Keep the references balanced in every path:
- On normal exit or an error after publication, smb2_tree_connect()
drops its creator reference. Error cleanup also calls
ksmbd_tree_conn_disconnect(), which drops the xarray reference only if
it removes the exact entry.
- SMB2 TREE_DISCONNECT uses the same helper to remove the entry and drop
its xarray reference. The request's existing lookup reference remains
owned by the request and is released by the existing cleanup.
- Session LOGOFF removes each entry and drops its xarray reference. If
it wins the race, later cleanup sees that the entry is gone and does
not drop that reference again.
To enforce this ownership, claim the disconnected state and erase the
exact entry atomically under tree_conns_lock. This guarantees one drop
for the xarray reference and one drop by each in-flight user, regardless
of which teardown path wins. If logoff removes the entry before
initialization completes, fail the connect instead of marking the
detached object TREE_CONNECTED.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: Handle negative S1 walk levels in VNCR TLB size evaluation
Computing the effects of a TLB invalidation involves looking at
the size of the mapping cached by the TLB. For S1 mappings such as
VNCR, this is deducted from the combination of the base granule size
and the mapping level.
However, this implies that the S1 MMU is *on*. When the MMU is off,
we indicate this with the level being set to a "creative" value of
-127 (S1_MMU_DISABLED).
This ends-up being misinterpreted by pgshift_level_to_ttl() as it
doesn't handle negative levels at all (the level is immediately cast
to a u8 and only the bottom two bits considered), leading to an
invalidation size of 0. Not helpful.
Tidy-up pgshift_level_to_ttl() to handle these negative levels, and
ttl_to_size() to always return SZ_1G when no valid TTL is present.
This allows the removal of open-coded checks for similar situations.
Note that the check for a negative value not explicitely checking for
S1_MMU_DISABLED is deliberate, so that actual negative levels introduced
with LVA2 and D128 can take the same path if we ever support them.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: validate ef->size covers the record's name and value
When an EA record has a non-zero ef->size, ntfs_read_ea() only checks
that the record fits in the remaining buffer (ea_size > bytes), not that
ef->size is large enough to hold the record's own name_len + 1 + elength.
A crafted image can pass validation with, e.g., ef->size = 24 but
elength = 0xffff. ntfs_get_ea() then trusts elength and copies it out of
the undersized record, reading past the kmalloc(info->size) allocation
and leaking heap memory to userspace via getxattr():

ext4: fix out-of-bounds read in ext4_read_inline_dir()
ext4_read_inline_dir() can read a dirent header past the end of its inline
buffer, triggering a slab-out-of-bounds read during getdents64():

The dirent payload lives in a buffer of exactly inline_size bytes:
dir_buf = kmalloc(inline_size, GFP_NOFS);
but iteration runs in a position space extra_offset bytes larger
(extra_size = extra_offset + inline_size) so the synthetic "." and ".."
land at their block-dir offsets. A dirent is formed at "dir_buf + pos -
extra_offset", yet the ext4_check_dir_entry() length argument uses the
larger extra_size. A position whose dirent header would extend past
extra_size is therefore accepted, and the rescan loop's rec_len probe and
ext4_check_dir_entry() dereference de->rec_len before the entry is rejected.
Reject a position whose minimum-size dirent header would not fit within
extra_size before forming de, in both the rescan and main loops, and pass
inline_size rather than extra_size to ext4_check_dir_entry() so the length
check matches the physical buffer.

EPSS 0.2%
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vfio/pci: clear vdev->msi_perm after freeing it on init failure
vfio_msi_cap_len() lazily allocates the per-device MSI permission table:
vdev->msi_perm = kmalloc_obj(struct perm_bits, GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT);
if (!vdev->msi_perm)
return -ENOMEM;
ret = init_pci_cap_msi_perm(vdev->msi_perm, len, flags);
if (ret) {
kfree(vdev->msi_perm);
return ret; /* vdev->msi_perm left dangling */
}
When init_pci_cap_msi_perm() -> alloc_perm_bits() fails with -ENOMEM, the
error path frees vdev->msi_perm but leaves the freed pointer stored in
it. vdev->msi_perm is not re-zeroed later because struct
vfio_pci_core_device is per-device and persists across open/close cycles,
and the vfio_config_init() error path returns without calling
vfio_config_free(). So the dangling pointer outlives the failed open.
That leads to two use-after-frees on the same device:
1. Reuse. The next vfio_config_init() sees the stale pointer at
"if (vdev->msi_perm) return len;" and reuses the freed object. MSI
config accesses in vfio_pci_config_rw_single() then dereference and
call the freed perm->readfn / perm->writefn function pointers.
2. Double free. A later vfio_config_free() runs free_perm_bits() and
kfree() on the already-freed object.
Fix it by NULLing vdev->msi_perm after the kfree(), matching the
NULL-after-free discipline already used in free_perm_bits() and
vfio_config_free().

Bluetooth: SCO: hold sk properly in sco_conn_ready

fs/ntfs3: fix out-of-bounds read in read_log_rec_buf()
read_log_rec_buf() copies a log record into a caller buffer starting at
u32 off = lsn_to_page_off(log, lsn) + log->record_header_len;
log->record_header_len (and log->data_off, used for the following pages)
comes verbatim from the on-disk restart area and is only checked for
8-byte alignment in is_rst_area_valid(), so off can exceed
log->page_size. "tail = log->page_size - off" then underflows and
memcpy() reads past the page_size-sized buffer returned by
read_log_page(), spilling adjacent slab memory into the replay buffer.
This is reachable by mounting a crafted NTFS image:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: reject restart table growth beyond U16_MAX entries
During $LogFile replay, log_replay() indexes the transaction table by the
transact_id taken from the log record header. check_log_rec() only
verifies that transact_id is non-zero and properly aligned, not its
magnitude, so a crafted image can request an arbitrarily large index.
alloc_rsttbl_from_idx() grows the table to cover that index via
extend_rsttbl(), which passes the new entry count to init_rsttbl():
rt = init_rsttbl(esize, used + add);
used + add is computed as u32 but init_rsttbl() takes a u16, and the
count is stored in struct RESTART_TABLE as a __le16. When used + add
exceeds U16_MAX it is truncated, init_rsttbl() allocates a table far
smaller than the index requires, and alloc_rsttbl_from_idx() then
dereferences and writes at the original, untruncated offset -- an
out-of-bounds access past the allocation, reachable by mounting a
crafted NTFS image.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf: Fix use-after-free when perf mmap() revival races with the last munmap()
perf_mmap_close() drops rb->mmap_count *without* holding
event->mmap_mutex (the refcount_dec_and_test() right before the
refcount_dec_and_mutex_lock() of event->mmap_count). A concurrent
perf_mmap_rb() can slot its entire "revival" path into that window
(perf_mmap holds event->mmap_mutex for its whole duration, including
rb_alloc):
munmap side (perf_mmap_close) mmap side (perf_mmap_rb)
----------------------------------- --------------------------------
rb->mmap_count 1 -> 0 (no lock) (holds event->mmap_mutex)
inc_not_zero(rb->mmap_count) fails
ring_buffer_attach(event, NULL)
rb_alloc() + attach new rb
refcount_set(&event->mmap_count, 1)
lock; event->mmap_count 1 -> 0
ring_buffer_attach(event, NULL)
ring_buffer_put() -> frees the *new* rb
The revival's refcount_set(&event->mmap_count, 1) is an invisible
1 -> 1 write: the close frees the just-revived buffer although the
other process still has it mapped -- a page-level use-after-free
allowing local privilege escalation to root by any unprivileged user
(default kernel.perf_event_paranoid=2).
Swap the order of the two counter updates: event->mmap_count is
dropped first via refcount_dec_and_mutex_lock(), so its 1 -> 0
transition and the ring_buffer_attach() stay serialized with
perf_mmap(). rb->mmap_count == 0 then implies every event using the
buffer is detached already, so the result of the rb->mmap_count drop
can gate the remaining teardown directly and detach_rest is no longer
needed.
An earlier fix for this race from Kyle Zeng and David Lee takes
event->mmap_mutex around both counter updates [0]; here the not-last
close stays lockless.
