CVE-2026-53391In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4/pNFS: reject zero-length r_addr in nfs4_decode_mp_ds_addr
nfs4_decode_mp_ds_addr() decodes the r_netid and r_addr opaques of a
netaddr4 from a GETDEVICEINFO multipath-DS body, then immediately
calls strrchr(buf, '.') to locate the port separator. Both decodes
use xdr_stream_decode_string_dup(), and the current code checks only
"nlen < 0" / "rlen < 0" before dereferencing the returned string.
When the on-wire opaque has length zero, xdr_stream_decode_opaque_inline()
returns 0 and xdr_stream_decode_string_dup() falls through to its
"*str = NULL; return ret" tail, leaving buf NULL with a return value
of 0. The "< 0" check does not catch this, and the next line is
strrchr(NULL, '.'), a kernel NULL pointer dereference reachable from
any pNFS-flexfile client mounted against a malicious or compromised
metadata server.
Reject the zero-length cases explicitly so the decoder fails with
-EBADMSG (treated as a malformed GETDEVICEINFO body) instead of
panicking the client.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.5 CVE-2026-53392In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4/flexfiles: reject zero filehandle version count
ff_layout_alloc_lseg() decodes the filehandle-version array count
from the flexfiles layout body. The value is used as the count for
kzalloc_objs(), and the current code only rejects NULL.
A zero count yields ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which can be stored in
dss_info->fh_versions even though later flexfiles paths assume that at
least one filehandle version exists.
Reject fh_count == 0 before the allocation, matching the existing zero
version_count validation in the flexfiles GETDEVICEINFO parser.
A QEMU/KASAN run with a malformed flexfiles layout hit:
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000010-0x0000000000000017]

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
The patched kernel rejects the malformed layout without KASAN/oops/panic,
and a valid fh_count=1 regression still opens, reads, and unmounts cleanly.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.5 CVE-2026-53394In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: avoid leaking pre-allocated openowner on unconfirmed retry race
When find_or_alloc_open_stateowner() encounters an unconfirmed owner, it
calls release_openowner() and sets oo = NULL. Control then falls through
past the `if (oo)` guard -- which would have freed any pre-allocated
`new` -- and unconditionally executes `new = alloc_stateowner(...)`. If
`new` was already allocated on a prior iteration, the pointer is
silently overwritten and the previous allocation (slab object + owner
name buffer) is leaked.
This requires a race: two NFSv4.0 OPEN threads with the same owner
string, where a concurrent thread inserts a new unconfirmed owner into
the hash between retry iterations. The window is narrow but repeatable
under adversarial conditions.
Fix by adding `goto retry` after `oo = NULL` so the already-allocated
`new` is reused on the next iteration rather than overwritten.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.5 CVE-2026-53395In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix dead ACL conflict guard in nfsd4_create
nfsd4_create() steals create->cr_dpacl/cr_pacl into the local
nfsd_attrs via the designated initializer, then immediately sets the
source pointers to NULL. The subsequent conflict guard tests the
already-nilled source fields, making it permanently dead code:
if (create->cr_acl) {
if (create->cr_dpacl || create->cr_pacl) /* always false */
When a client encodes both FATTR4_WORD0_ACL and
FATTR4_WORD2_POSIX_{DEFAULT,ACCESS}_ACL in the same CREATE fattr
bitmap, nfsd4_acl_to_attr() overwrites attrs.na_pacl/na_dpacl without
releasing the originals, leaking two posix_acl slab objects per
request. Repeated requests cause unbounded slab exhaustion.
Fix by checking attrs.na_dpacl/na_pacl (the stolen values) instead of
the nilled create->cr_dpacl/cr_pacl, matching the correct pattern
already used in nfsd4_setattr().NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.5 CVE-2026-53396In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix posix_acl leak and ignored error in nfsd4_create_file
nfsd4_create_file() has two bugs in its ACL handling:
The return value of nfsd4_acl_to_attr() is silently discarded. When
the NFSv4-to-POSIX ACL conversion fails (e.g., -EINVAL for
unsupported ACE types), the file is created without any ACL and the
client receives NFS4_OK. This violates RFC 7530/8881 which require
the server to reject unsupported attributes on CREATE.
When start_creating() fails after ACL attributes have been populated
in attrs (either via nfsd4_acl_to_attr or via ownership transfer from
open->op_dpacl/op_pacl), the function jumps to out_write which skips
nfsd_attrs_free(). The posix_acl allocations are leaked. A client
can trigger this repeatedly with OPEN(CREATE), ACL attributes, and an
invalid filename (e.g., longer than NAME_MAX).
Fix both by capturing the nfsd4_acl_to_attr() return value and by
changing the early error paths to jump to out instead of out_write.
Initialize child to ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) so that end_creating() is safe
to call even if start_creating() was never reached.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.1 CVE-2026-53397In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix posix_acl leak on SETACL decode failure
nfsaclsvc_decode_setaclargs() and nfs3svc_decode_setaclargs() each
call nfs_stream_decode_acl() twice, first for NFS_ACL and then for
NFS_DFACL. Each successful call transfers ownership of a freshly
allocated posix_acl into argp->acl_access or argp->acl_default. If
the first call succeeds but the second fails, the decoder returns
false and argp->acl_access is left dangling.
ACLPROC2_SETACL.pc_release was wired to nfssvc_release_attrstat and
ACLPROC3_SETACL.pc_release was wired to nfs3svc_release_fhandle.
Both only call fh_put() and have no knowledge of the ACL fields on
argp. The posix_acl_release() pairs sat at the out: labels inside
nfsacld_proc_setacl() and nfsd3_proc_setacl(), but svc_process()
skips pc_func when pc_decode returns false, so that cleanup is
unreachable on decode failure:
svc_process_common()
pc_decode() /* decode_setaclargs: false */
/* pc_func skipped */
pc_release() /* fh_put only -- ACLs leaked */
The orphaned posix_acl is leaked for the lifetime of the server.
Fix by adding nfsaclsvc_release_setacl() and nfs3svc_release_setacl(),
which release both argp->acl_access and argp->acl_default in addition
to fh_put(), and wiring them as pc_release for their respective SETACL
procedures. pc_release runs on every path svc_process() takes after
decode, including decode failure, so the posix_acl_release() pairs are
removed from the proc functions' out: labels to keep ownership in one
place. This matches the existing release_getacl() pattern used by
the sibling GETACL procedures.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.5 CVE-2026-53398In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Fix SECINFO_NO_NAME decode error cleanup
nfsd4_decode_secinfo_no_name() currently initializes sin_exp after
decoding sin_style. If the XDR stream is truncated, the decoder returns
nfserr_bad_xdr before sin_exp is initialized.
Since commit 3fdc54646234 ("NFSD: Reduce amount of struct
nfsd4_compoundargs that needs clearing"), the inline iops array is not
cleared between RPC calls. A failed SECINFO_NO_NAME decode can therefore
leave sin_exp holding stale union contents from a previous operation.
The error response path still invokes nfsd4_secinfo_no_name_release(),
which calls exp_put() on a non-NULL sin_exp.
Initialize sin_exp before the first failable decode step, matching
nfsd4_decode_secinfo().NVD analysis in progress Critical CVSS 9.8 CVE-2026-53399In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: release layout stid on setlease failure
nfs4_alloc_stid() publishes the new stid into cl->cl_stateids via
idr_alloc_cyclic() under cl_lock before returning to
nfsd4_alloc_layout_stateid(). When nfsd4_layout_setlease() then
fails, the error path frees the layout stateid directly with
kmem_cache_free() without ever calling idr_remove(), leaving the
IDR slot pointing at freed slab memory. Any subsequent IDR walker
(states_show, client teardown) dereferences the dangling pointer.
The correct teardown for an IDR-published stid is nfs4_put_stid(),
which removes the IDR slot under cl_lock, dispatches sc_free
(nfsd4_free_layout_stateid) to release ls->ls_file via
nfsd4_close_layout(), and drops the nfs4_file reference in its
tail.
A second issue blocks that switch: nfsd4_free_layout_stateid()
unconditionally inspects ls->ls_fence_work via
delayed_work_pending() under ls_lock, but
INIT_DELAYED_WORK(&ls->ls_fence_work, ...) currently runs only
after the setlease call. On the setlease-failure path the
destructor would touch an uninitialized delayed_work.
nfsd4_alloc_layout_stateid()
nfs4_alloc_stid() /* idr_alloc_cyclic under cl_lock */
nfsd4_layout_setlease() /* fails */
nfs4_put_stid()
nfsd4_free_layout_stateid()
delayed_work_pending(&ls->ls_fence_work) /* needs INIT */
nfsd4_close_layout() /* nfsd_file_put(ls->ls_file) */
put_nfs4_file()
Fix by hoisting the ls_fenced / ls_fence_delay / INIT_DELAYED_WORK
initialization above the nfsd4_layout_setlease() call, and replace
the manual nfsd_file_put + put_nfs4_file + kmem_cache_free cleanup
with a single nfs4_put_stid(stp).NVD analysis in progress Critical CVSS 9.8 CVE-2026-53400In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: core: fix adapter registration race
Adapters can be looked up based on their id using i2c_get_adapter()
which takes a reference to the embedded struct device.
Make sure that the adapter (including its struct device) has been
initialised before adding it to the IDR to avoid accessing uninitialised
data which could, for example, lead to NULL-pointer dereferences or
use-after-free.
Note that the i2c-dev chardev, which is registered from a bus notifier,
currently uses i2c_get_adapter() so the adapter needs to be added to the
IDR before registration.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.8 CVE-2026-53401In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: omap2: fix use-after-free in omapfb_mmap
omapfb_mmap() has a race condition with OMAPFB_SETUP_PLANE ioctl that
can lead to use-after-free:
The fb_mmap() entry point holds mm_lock but not lock (fb_info->lock),
while ioctl handlers like OMAPFB_SETUP_PLANE hold lock but not mm_lock.
This allows concurrent execution.
In omapfb_mmap():
1. rg = omapfb_get_mem_region(ofbi->region); // Get old region ref
2. start = omapfb_get_region_paddr(ofbi); // Read from NEW region
3. len = fix->smem_len; // Read from NEW region
4. vm_iomap_memory(vma, start, len); // Map NEW region memory
5. atomic_inc(&rg->map_count); // Increment OLD region!
Concurrently, OMAPFB_SETUP_PLANE can:
- Reassign ofbi->region = new_rg
- Update fix->smem_len
- OMAPFB_SETUP_MEM then checks NEW region's map_count (0!) and frees it
This leaves userspace with a mapping to freed physical memory.
The fix is to read all required values (start, len) from the same
region reference (rg) that will have its map_count incremented,
preventing the region from being freed while still mapped.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.8 CVE-2026-53402In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: fbcon: fix out-of-bounds read in err_out of fbcon_do_set_font()
When fbcon_do_set_font() fails (e.g., due to a memory allocation failure
inside vc_resize() under heavy memory pressure), it jumps to the `err_out`
label to roll back the console state. However, the current rollback logic
forgets to restore the `hi_font` state, leading to a severe state machine
corruption.
Earlier in the function, `set_vc_hi_font()` might be called to change
`vc->vc_hi_font_mask` and mutate the screen buffer. If `vc_resize()`
subsequently fails, the `err_out` path restores `vc_font.charcount`
but entirely skips rolling back the `vc_hi_font_mask` and the screen
buffer.
This mismatch leaves the terminal in a desynchronized state. Because
`vc_hi_font_mask` remains set, the VT subsystem will still accept
character indices greater than 255 from userspace and write them to the
screen buffer. Subsequent rendering calls (e.g., `fbcon_putcs()`) will
then use these inflated indices to access the reverted, 256-character
font array, leading to a deterministic out-of-bounds read and potential
kernel memory disclosure.
Fix this by adding the missing rollback logic for the `hi_font` mask
and screen buffer in the error path.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.1 CVE-2026-63793In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs: serialize volume label accesses
Protect vol->volume_label with a mutex and snaphost the label before
copy_to_user. This prevent a use-after-free when FS_IOC_SETFSLABEL
replaces the vol->volume_label and FS_IOC_GETTSLABEL reads it
concurrently.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.8 CVE-2026-63795In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
9p: avoid putting oldfid in p9_client_walk() error path
When p9_client_walk() is called with clone set to false, fid aliases
oldfid. If the walk subsequently fails after the request has been sent,
the error path jumps to clunk_fid, which currently calls p9_fid_put(fid)
unconditionally.
This drops a reference to oldfid even though ownership of oldfid remains
with the caller. If this is the last reference, oldfid can be clunked and
destroyed while the caller still expects it to be valid. A later use or
put of oldfid can then trigger a use-after-free or refcount underflow.
Fix this by only putting fid in the clunk_fid error path when it does not
alias oldfid, matching the existing guard in the error path below.
This can be triggered when a multi-component walk is split into multiple
p9_client_walk() calls and a later non-cloning walk fails. A reproducer
and refcount warning logs are available on request.NVD analysis in progress Critical CVSS 10 CVE-2026-63796In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: reject oversized group bitmap descriptors
ocfs2_validate_gd_parent() only bounds bg_bits against the parent
allocator's chain geometry. A malicious descriptor can still claim a
bg_size/bg_bits pair that exceeds the bitmap bytes that physically fit in
the group descriptor block, so later bitmap scans and bit updates can run
past bg_bitmap.
Add a physical-cap check based on ocfs2_group_bitmap_size() for the parent
allocator type and reject descriptors whose bg_size or bg_bits exceed that
capacity. Keep the existing chain geometry check so both the on-disk
bitmap layout and the allocator metadata must agree before the descriptor
is used.

rpmsg: char: Fix use-after-free on probe error path
rpmsg_chrdev_probe() stores the newly allocated eptdev in the default
endpoint's priv pointer before calling rpmsg_chrdev_eptdev_add(). If
rpmsg_chrdev_eptdev_add() then fails, its error path frees eptdev while
the default endpoint may still dispatch callbacks with the stale priv
pointer.
Avoid publishing eptdev through the default endpoint until
rpmsg_chrdev_eptdev_add() succeeds. Messages received before the priv
pointer is published should be ignored by rpmsg_ept_cb(). Flow-control
updates can hit rpmsg_ept_flow_cb() in the same window, so make both
callbacks return success when priv is NULL.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 8.4 CVE-2026-63799In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/mmcid: Fix OOB clear_bit when CID is MM_CID_UNSET in fixup path
In mm_cid_fixup_cpus_to_tasks(), when rq->curr has the target mm and
mm_cid.active is set, the CID is checked with cid_in_transit() before
setting the transition bit. In per-CPU mode a newly forked or exec'd
task can be running with mm_cid.cid == MM_CID_UNSET because CIDs are
assigned lazily on schedule-in. With cid_in_transit() the guard passes
for MM_CID_UNSET (no transit bit), converts it to MM_CID_UNSET |
MM_CID_TRANSIT and stores it back; later mm_cid_schedout() feeds this
to clear_bit() with MM_CID_UNSET as the bit number, triggering an
out-of-bounds write.
Symptoms: this is genuine memory corruption, but a bounded out-of-bounds
write, not an arbitrary one. MM_CID_UNSET is the fixed sentinel BIT(31),
so once the bad value reaches mm_cid_schedout() the cid_from_transit_cid()
strip leaves MM_CID_UNSET, which fails the "cid < max_cids" convergence
test and falls into mm_drop_cid() -> clear_bit(MM_CID_UNSET,
mm_cidmask(mm)). The cid bitmap is embedded in the mm_struct slab object
(after cpu_bitmap and mm_cpus_allowed) and is only num_possible_cpus()
bits wide, so clearing bit 31 is a deterministic OOB bit-clear at a
fixed offset of 2^31 / 8 == 256 MiB past the bitmap base. The address is
not attacker-influenced (fixed sentinel -> fixed offset) and the op only
clears a single bit; what sits 256 MiB further along the direct map is
whatever kernel object happens to live there, so this corrupts one bit of
unpredictable kernel memory -- it is not an arbitrary-address or
arbitrary-value write.
It triggers only in per-CPU CID mode, when a CPU is running an active
task of the target mm whose cid is still MM_CID_UNSET -- the
fork()/execve() window before that task's next schedule-in assigns it a
real CID -- and a per-CPU -> per-task fixup walks over it (the mode
fallback driven by a thread exit, sched_mm_cid_exit(), or by the deferred
max_cids recompute in mm_cid_work_fn()).
In practice syzkaller surfaced it as a KASAN use-after-free reported in
__schedule -> mm_cid_switch_to, where the offending clear_bit() is inlined
via mm_cid_schedout() -> mm_drop_cid().
Guard the transition-bit assignment against MM_CID_UNSET, in addition to
the existing cid_in_transit() check, so the bit is only set on a genuine
task-owned CID. A CPU-owned (MM_CID_ONCPU) CID of a running active task
is handled by the cid_on_cpu(pcp->cid) branch above and never reaches
this path, so excluding MM_CID_UNSET (and the already-transitioning case)
is sufficient.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.8 CVE-2026-63800In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pNFS: Fix use-after-free in pnfs_update_layout()
When hitting the NFS_LAYOUT_RETURN branch in pnfs_update_layout(),
the code calls pnfs_prepare_to_retry_layoutget(lo). If it succeeds,
pnfs_put_layout_hdr(lo) is called before trace_pnfs_update_layout(),
which still references 'lo'. This results in a use-after-free when the
tracepoint accesses lo's fields.

tipc: fix slab-use-after-free Read in tipc_aead_decrypt_done
tipc_aead_decrypt() goes straight from tipc_bearer_hold(b) to
crypto_aead_decrypt(req) without taking a reference on the netns, unlike
the encrypt path. When crypto_aead_decrypt() is offloaded asynchronously
(e.g. the SIMD aead wrapper queuing to cryptd), the cryptd worker runs
tipc_aead_decrypt_done() later. If the bearer's netns is torn down in the
meantime, cleanup_net() -> tipc_exit_net() -> tipc_crypto_stop() frees the
per-netns tipc_crypto, and the completion then reads it:
tipc_aead_decrypt_done() dereferences aead->crypto->stats and
aead->crypto->net, and tipc_crypto_rcv_complete() dereferences
aead->crypto->aead[] and the node table -- reading freed memory.

This is the same class of bug that commit e279024617134 ("net/tipc: fix
slab-use-after-free Read in tipc_aead_encrypt_done") fixed for the encrypt
side. The encrypt path takes maybe_get_net(aead->crypto->net) before
crypto_aead_encrypt() and drops it with put_net() on the synchronous
return paths and in tipc_aead_encrypt_done(); the -EINPROGRESS/-EBUSY
return keeps the reference for the async callback to release. The decrypt
path was left without the equivalent guard.
Mirror the encrypt-side fix on the decrypt path: take a net reference
before crypto_aead_decrypt() (failing with -ENODEV and the matching
bearer put if it cannot be acquired), keep it across the
-EINPROGRESS/-EBUSY async return, and drop it with put_net() on the
synchronous success/error return and at the end of
tipc_aead_decrypt_done().
Reproduced under KASAN on v7.1-rc7: a UDP bearer with a cluster key is
flooded with crafted encrypted frames from an unknown peer (driving the
cluster-key decrypt path) while the bearer's netns is repeatedly torn
down. The completion must run asynchronously to outlive
tipc_crypto_stop(); on x86 the stock aesni gcm(aes) now decrypts
synchronously, so the async path was exercised via cryptd offload. The
unguarded aead->crypto dereference in tipc_aead_decrypt_done() is the
unpatched upstream path; tipc_aead_decrypt() still lacks
maybe_get_net(aead->crypto->net), so the completion can outlive the free
on any config where crypto_aead_decrypt() goes async.

blk-cgroup: fix UAF in __blkcg_rstat_flush()
When multiple blkgs in the same blkcg are released concurrently,
a use-after-free can occur. The race happens when one blkg's
__blkcg_rstat_flush() removes another blkg's iostat entries via
llist_del_all(). The second blkg sees an empty list and proceeds
to free itself while the first is still iterating over its entries.
Move the flush from __blkg_release() (RCU callback) to blkg_release()
(before call_rcu). This ensures the RCU grace period waits for any
concurrent flush's rcu_read_lock() section to complete before freeing.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.8 CVE-2026-63803In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hdlc_ppp: sync per-proto timers before freeing hdlc state
Each PPP control protocol (LCP/IPCP/IPV6CP) embedded in struct ppp
registers a timer via timer_setup(). That struct ppp is the
hdlc->state allocation, which detach_hdlc_protocol() frees with kfree()
in both teardown paths: unregister_hdlc_device() and the re-attach inside
attach_hdlc_protocol().
The ppp proto never registered a .detach callback, so
detach_hdlc_protocol() performs no timer synchronization before the
kfree(). The only cancel, timer_delete(&proto->timer) in ppp_cp_event(),
is partial (it does not wait for a running callback) and only runs on the
->CLOSED transition; ppp_stop()/ppp_close() do not sync either. A
ppp_timer callback already executing (blocked on ppp->lock) survives the
kfree and then dereferences proto->state / ppp->lock in freed memory,
leading to a use-after-free.
Fix this by adding a .detach helper that calls timer_shutdown_sync() on
every per-proto timer. detach_hdlc_protocol() invokes proto->detach(dev)
before kfree(hdlc->state), so timer_shutdown_sync()
now runs on both free paths.
timer_shutdown_sync() is used instead of timer_delete_sync() because the
keepalive path re-arms the timer through add_timer()/mod_timer() and
shutdown blocks any re-activation during teardown.
Initialize the per-protocol timers in ppp_ioctl() when the protocol is
attached, and remove the now-redundant timer_setup() from ppp_start(), so
that the timers are initialized exactly once at attach time and
ppp_timer_release() never operates on uninitialized timer_list
structures. attach_hdlc_protocol() uses kmalloc() (not kzalloc), so
struct ppp's protos[i].timer is uninitialized garbage until the first
timer_setup(); without this init-at-attach, attaching the PPP protocol
without ever bringing the device up would leave timer_shutdown_sync()
operating on uninitialized memory in .detach. Moving the init out of
ppp_start() (which only runs on NETDEV_UP) into the attach path makes the
initialization unconditional and avoids initializing the same timer_list
twice.

KVM: Replace guest-triggerable BUG_ON() in ioeventfd datamatch with get_unaligned()
Drop a BUG_ON() that has been reachable since it was first added, way back
in 2009, and instead use get_unaligned() to perform potentially-unaligned
accesses.
For a given store, KVM x86's emulator tracks the entire value in the
destination operand, x86_emulate_ctxt.dst. If the destination is memory,
and the target splits multiple pages and/or is emulated MMIO, then KVM
handles each fragment independently. E.g. on a page split starting at page
offset 0xffc, KVM writes 4 bytes to the first page, then the remaining
bytes to the second page, using ctxt->dst as the source for both (with
appropriate offsets).
If the destination splits a page *and* hits emulated MMIO on the second
page, then KVM will complete the write to the first page, then emulate the
MMIO access to the second page. If there is a datamatch-enabled ioeventfd
at offset 0 of the second page, then KVM will process the remainder of the
store as a potential ioeventfd signal.
Putting it all together, if the guest emits a store that splits a page
starting at page offset N, and the second page has a datamatch-enabled
ioeventfd at offset 0, then KVM will check for datamatch using
&dst.valptr[N] as the source. Due to dst (and thus dst.valptr) being
32-byte aligned, if N is not aligned to @len, the BUG_ON() fires.
E.g. with a 16-byte store at page offset 0xffc, to an ioeventfd of len 8,
all initial checks in ioeventfd_in_range() will succeed, and the BUG_ON()
fires due to @val being 4-byte aligned, but not 8-byte aligned.

In a perfect world, the fix would be to simply delete the BUG_ON(), as KVM
x86 doesn't perform alignment checks on "normal" memory accesses at CPL0.
Sadly, C99 ruins all the fun; while the x86 architecture plays nice,
dereferencing an unaligned pointer directly is undefined behavior in C,
e.g. triggers splats when running with CONFIG_UBSAN_ALIGNMENT=y.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.1 CVE-2026-63807In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: x86/mmu: Ensure hugepage is in by slot before checking max mapping level
When recovering hugepages in the shadow MMU, verify that the base gfn of
the shadow page is actually contained within the target memslot, *before*
querying the max mapping level given the shadow page's gfn. Failure to
pre-check the validity of the gfn can lead to an out-of-bounds access to
the slot's lpage_info (which typically manifests as a host #PF because the
lpage_info is vmalloc'd) if the guest creates a hugepage mapping (in its
PTEs) that extends "below" the bounds of a memslot.
When faulting in memory for a guest, and the size of the guest mapping is
greater than KVM's (current) max mapping, then KVM will create a "direct"
shadow page (direct in that there are no gPTEs to shadow, and so the target
gfn is a direct calculation given the base gfn of the shadow page). The
hugepage recovery flow looks for such direct shadow pages, as forcing 4KiB
mappings when dirty logging generates the guest > host mapping size case.
When the 4KiB restriction is lifted, then KVM can replace the shadow page
with a hugepage.
But if KVM originally used a smaller mapping than the guest because the
range of memory covered by the guest hugepage exceeds the bounds of a
memslot, then KVM will link a direct shadow page with a gfn that is outside
the bounds of the memslot being used to fault in memory. The rmap entry
added for the leaf mapping is correct and within bounds, but the gfn of the
leaf SPTE's parent shadow page will be out of bounds.

exfat: fix potential use-after-free in exfat_find_dir_entry()
In exfat_find_dir_entry(), the buffer_head obtained from
exfat_get_dentry() is released with brelse(bh) before the fall-through

into bh->b_data):
brelse(bh);

After brelse() drops our reference, nothing guarantees that the

bpf: use kvfree() for replaced sysctl write buffer
proc_sys_call_handler() allocates its temporary sysctl buffer with
kvzalloc() and passes it to __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_sysctl(). Since
kvzalloc() may fall back to vmalloc() for large allocations, freeing
that buffer with kfree() is wrong and can corrupt memory.
Use kvfree() to safely handle both kmalloc and kvzalloc()/vmalloc
allocations.
The bug was first flagged by an experimental analysis tool we are
developing for kernel memory-management bugs while analyzing
v6.13-rc1. The tool is still under development and is not yet publicly
available. Manual inspection confirms that the bug is still
present in v7.1-rc5.

KASAN and CONFIG_FAILSLAB enabled. To exercise the replacement path, the
test tree also included the accompanying fix for the stale ret == 1
check in __cgroup_bpf_run_filter_sysctl(). The reproducer confines
failslab injections to the proc_sys_call_handler() range, uses

When __destroy_extent_node() sets the inode flag FI_NO_EXTENT, it does
not reset the length of the largest extent to 0 and update the inode
folio. Since modifications to the extent tree are disallowed afterward,
the cached largest extent may become stale. This can trigger the

Revert "f2fs: remove non-uptodate folio from the page cache in move_data_block"
This reverts commit 9609dd704725a40cd63d915f2ab6c44248a44598.
The kernel panics are keeping to be reported especially when the f2fs
partition get almost full. By investigation, we find that the reason is
one f2fs page got freed to buddy without being deleted from LRU and the
root cause is the race happened in [2] which is enrolled by this commit.
There are 3 race processes in this scenario, please find below for their
main activities.
The changed code in move_data_block() lets the GC path evict the tail-end
folio from the page cache through folio_end_dropbehind(). Once
folio_unmap_invalidate() removes the folio from mapping->i_pages, the
page-cache references for all pages in the folio are dropped. The folio
is then kept alive only by temporary external references, which allows a
later split to operate on a folio whose subpages are no longer protected
by page-cache references.
After the page-cache references are gone, split_folio_to_order() can
split the big folio into individual pages and put the resulting subpages
back on the LRU. For tail pages beyond EOF, split removes them from the
page cache and drops their page-cache references. A tail page can then
remain on the LRU with PG_lru set while holding only the split caller's
temporary reference. When free_folio_and_swap_cache() drops that final
reference, the page enters the final folio_put() release path.
In parallel, folio_isolate_lru() can observe the same tail page with a
non-zero refcount and PG_lru set. It clears PG_lru before taking its own
reference. If this races with the final folio_put() from the split path,
__folio_put() sees PG_lru already cleared and skips lruvec_del_folio().
The page is then freed back to the allocator while its lru links are
still present in the LRU list. A later LRU operation on a neighboring
page detects the stale link and reports list corruption.

f2fs: bound i_inline_xattr_size for non-inline-xattr inodes
When the flexible_inline_xattr feature is enabled, do_read_inode() loads
the on-disk i_inline_xattr_size unconditionally:
if (f2fs_sb_has_flexible_inline_xattr(sbi))
fi->i_inline_xattr_size = le16_to_cpu(ri->i_inline_xattr_size);
but sanity_check_inode() only range-checks it when the inode also has the
FI_INLINE_XATTR flag set. An inode that carries an inline dentry or inline
data but not FI_INLINE_XATTR -- the normal layout for an inline
directory -- therefore keeps a fully attacker-controlled
i_inline_xattr_size from a crafted image.
get_inline_xattr_addrs() returns that value with no flag gating, so it
feeds the inode geometry:
MAX_INLINE_DATA() = 4 * (CUR_ADDRS_PER_INODE - i_inline_xattr_size - 1)
NR_INLINE_DENTRY() = MAX_INLINE_DATA() * BITS_PER_BYTE / (...)
addrs_per_page() = CUR_ADDRS_PER_INODE - i_inline_xattr_size
A large i_inline_xattr_size drives MAX_INLINE_DATA() and NR_INLINE_DENTRY()
negative, so make_dentry_ptr_inline() sets d->max (int) to a negative
value. The inline directory walk then compares an unsigned long bit_pos
against that negative d->max, which is promoted to a huge unsigned bound,
and reads far past the inline area:
while (bit_pos < d->max) /* fs/f2fs/dir.c */
... test_bit_le(bit_pos, d->bitmap) / d->dentry[bit_pos] ...
Mounting a crafted image and reading such a directory triggers an
out-of-bounds read in f2fs_fill_dentries(); the same underflow also
corrupts ADDRS_PER_INODE for regular files.
Validate i_inline_xattr_size against MAX_INLINE_XATTR_SIZE whenever the
flexible_inline_xattr feature is enabled -- i.e. whenever the value is
loaded from disk and consumed -- and keep the lower MIN_INLINE_XATTR_SIZE
bound gated on inodes that actually carry an inline xattr, so legitimate
inodes with i_inline_xattr_size == 0 are still accepted.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 8.4 CVE-2026-63816In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

f2fs: validate compress cache inode only when enabled
F2FS_COMPRESS_INO() uses NM_I(sbi)->max_nid as the synthetic inode
number for the compressed page cache inode. That inode only exists when
the compress_cache mount option is enabled.
When compress_cache is disabled, max_nid is outside the valid inode
range. A corrupted directory entry that points to ino == max_nid should
therefore be rejected by f2fs_check_nid_range(). However, is_meta_ino()
currently treats F2FS_COMPRESS_INO() as a meta inode unconditionally,
so f2fs_iget() bypasses do_read_inode() and its nid range check, and
instantiates a fake internal inode instead.
Gate the compressed cache inode case on COMPRESS_CACHE, matching
f2fs_init_compress_inode(). With compress_cache disabled, ino ==
max_nid now follows the normal inode path and is rejected as an
out-of-range nid.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.8 CVE-2026-63818In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: validate orphan inode entry count
f2fs_recover_orphan_inodes() trusts the orphan block entry_count when
replaying orphan inodes from the checkpoint pack. A corrupted entry_count
larger than F2FS_ORPHANS_PER_BLOCK makes the recovery loop read past the
ino[] array and interpret footer or following data as inode numbers.
On a crafted image, mounting an unpatched kernel can drive orphan recovery
into f2fs_bug_on() and panic the kernel. Validate entry_count before
consuming entries so corrupted checkpoint data fails the mount with
-EFSCORRUPTED and requests fsck instead.
Set ERROR_INCONSISTENT_ORPHAN as well, so the corruption reason can be
recorded in the superblock s_errors[] field. This gives fsck a persistent
hint even though mount-time orphan recovery failure may leave no chance to
persist SBI_NEED_FSCK through a checkpoint.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 8.4 CVE-2026-63819In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

The fuzz test will trigger above bug_on in f2fs.
The root cause should be: in the corrupted inode, there is a direct node
which has the same ino and nid in its footer, so in f2fs_do_truncate_blocks(),
after f2fs_get_dnode_of_data() finds such dnode:
1) ADDRS_PER_PAGE(dn.node_folio, inode) will return 923

gcov: use atomic counter updates to fix concurrent access crashes
GCC's GCOV instrumentation can merge global branch counters with loop
induction variables as an optimization. In inflate_fast(), the inner copy
loops get transformed so that the GCOV counter value is loaded multiple
times to compute the loop base address, start index, and end bound. Since
GCOV counters are global (not per-CPU), concurrent execution on different
CPUs causes the counter to change between loads, producing inconsistent
values and out-of-bounds memory writes.
The crash manifests during IPComp (IP Payload Compression) processing when
inflate_fast() runs concurrently on multiple CPUs:
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffd0a3c0902ffa
RIP: inflate_fast+1431
Call Trace:
zlib_inflate
__deflate_decompress
crypto_comp_decompress
ipcomp_decompress [xfrm_ipcomp]
ipcomp_input [xfrm_ipcomp]
xfrm_input
At the crash point, the compiler generated three loads from the same
global GCOV counter (__gcov0.inflate_fast+216) to compute base, start, and
end for an indexed loop. Another CPU modified the counter between loads,
making the values inconsistent - the write went 3.4 MB past a 65 KB
buffer.
Add -fprofile-update=prefer-atomic to CFLAGS_GCOV at the global level in
the top-level Makefile, guarded by a try-run compile test. The test
compiles a minimal program with and without -fprofile-update=prefer-atomic
using the full KBUILD_CFLAGS, then compares undefined symbols in the
resulting object files. If prefer-atomic introduces new undefined
references (such as __atomic_fetch_add_8 on i386 or __aarch64_ldadd8_relax
on arm64 with outline-atomics), the flag is not added -- the kernel does
not link against libatomic.
On architectures where GCC inlines 64-bit atomic counter updates (x86_64,
s390, ...) the test passes and the flag is enabled, preventing the
compiler from merging counters with loop induction variables and fixing
the observed concurrent-access crash.
On architectures where the flag would introduce libatomic dependencies, it
is silently omitted and behaviour is no worse than before this patch.
Move the CFLAGS_GCOV block from its original position (before the arch
Makefile include) to after the core KBUILD_CFLAGS assignments but before
the scripts/Makefile.gcc-plugins include. This placement ensures the
try-run test sees arch-specific flags (-m32, -march=,
-mno-outline-atomics) while avoiding GCC plugin flags (-fplugin=) that
would break the test on clean builds when plugin shared objects do not yet
exist.NVD analysis in progress Critical CVSS 9.8 CVE-2026-63827In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
apparmor: fix use-after-free in rawdata dedup loop
aa_replace_profiles() walks ns->rawdata_list to dedup the incoming
policy blob against entries already attached to existing profiles.
Per the kernel-doc on struct aa_loaddata, list membership does not
hold a reference: profiles hold pcount, and when the last pcount
drops, do_ploaddata_rmfs() is queued on a workqueue that takes
ns->lock and removes the entry. Between dropping the last pcount
and the workqueue running, an entry remains on the list with
pcount == 0.
aa_get_profile_loaddata() is an unconditional kref_get() on
pcount, so when the dedup loop hits such an entry, refcount
hardening reports
refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.
inside aa_replace_profiles(), and the poisoned counter then
trips "saturated" and "underflow" warnings on the subsequent
uses of the same loaddata.
Before commit a0b7091c4de4 ("apparmor: fix race on rawdata
dereference") the dedup path used a get_unless_zero-style helper
on a single counter, so the existing "if (tmp)" guard was
meaningful. The split-refcount refactor introduced
aa_get_profile_loaddata(), which has plain kref_get() semantics,
and the guard quietly became a no-op.
Introduce aa_get_profile_loaddata_not0(), matching the existing
_not0 convention used by aa_get_profile_not0(), and use it for
the rawdata_list dedup lookup so dying entries are skipped.

apparmor: mediate the implicit connect of TCP fast open sendmsg
sendmsg()/sendto() with MSG_FASTOPEN is a combination of connect(2) and
write(2): it opens the connection in the SYN. apparmor_socket_sendmsg()
only checks AA_MAY_SEND, so a profile that grants send but denies connect
lets a confined task open an outbound TCP/MPTCP connection that connect(2)
would have refused, bypassing connect mediation.
Mediate the implicit connect when MSG_FASTOPEN is set and a destination
is supplied. Add it to apparmor_socket_sendmsg() (not the shared
aa_sock_msg_perm() helper, which recvmsg also uses) and call aa_sk_perm()
directly, mirroring the selinux and tomoyo fixes. sk_is_tcp() does not
cover MPTCP fast open, so the SOCK_STREAM/IPPROTO_MPTCP arm is explicit.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 8.4 CVE-2026-63829In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ip_gre: require CAP_NET_ADMIN in the device netns for changelink
A tunnel changelink() operates on at most two netns, dev_net(dev) and
the tunnel link netns t->net. They differ once the device is created in
or moved to a netns other than the one the request runs in. The rtnl
changelink path checks CAP_NET_ADMIN only against dev_net(dev), so a
caller privileged there but not in t->net can rewrite a tunnel that
lives in t->net.
Add rtnl_dev_link_net_capable() next to rtnl_get_net_ns_capable() in
net/core/rtnetlink.c. It requires CAP_NET_ADMIN in the link netns and is
skipped when the link netns is dev_net(dev), where the rtnl path already
checked it. The other patches in this series use the same helper.
Gate ipgre_changelink() and erspan_changelink() with it, at the top of
the op before any attribute is parsed, because the parsers update live
tunnel fields first. ipgre_netlink_parms() sets t->collect_md before
ip_tunnel_changelink() runs.

net: skmsg: preserve sg.copy across SG transforms
The sk_msg sg.copy bitmap is part of the scatterlist entry ownership
state. A set bit tells sk_msg_compute_data_pointers() not to expose the
entry through writable BPF ctx->data. This protects entries backed by
pages that are not private to the sk_msg, such as splice-backed file
page-cache pages.
Several sk_msg transform paths move, copy, split, or compact
msg->sg.data[] entries without moving the matching sg.copy bit. This can
make an externally backed entry arrive at a new slot with a clear copy
bit. A later SK_MSG verdict can then expose sg_virt(sge) as writable
ctx->data and BPF stores can modify the original page cache.
Keep sg.copy synchronized with sg.data[] whenever entries are
transferred, shifted, split, or copied into a new sk_msg. Clear the bit
when an entry is replaced by a newly allocated private page or freed.
This covers the BPF pull/push/pop helpers, sk_msg_shift_left/right(),
sk_msg_xfer(), and tls_split_open_record(), including the partial tail
entry created during TLS open-record splitting.NVD analysis in progress Critical CVSS 9.4 CVE-2026-63831In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mac802154: llsec: add skb_cow_data() before in-place crypto
llsec_do_encrypt_unauth(), llsec_do_encrypt_auth(),
llsec_do_decrypt_unauth(), and llsec_do_decrypt_auth() all perform
in-place cryptographic transformations on skb data. They build a
scatterlist with sg_init_one() pointing into the skb's linear data area
and then pass the same scatterlist as both src and dst to the crypto API
(e.g. crypto_skcipher_encrypt/decrypt, crypto_aead_encrypt/decrypt).
On the RX path, __ieee802154_rx_handle_packet() clones the received skb
before handing it to each subscriber via ieee802154_subif_frame(). The
cloned skb shares the same underlying data buffer via reference
counting. When llsec_do_decrypt() subsequently modifies this shared
buffer in place, it corrupts data that other clones -- potentially
belonging to other sockets or subsystems -- still reference.
On the TX path, similar data sharing can occur when an skb's head has
been cloned (skb_cloned() returns true).
The fix is to call skb_cow_data() before performing any in-place crypto
operation. skb_cow_data() ensures that the skb's data area is not
shared: if the skb head is cloned or the data spans multiple fragments,
it copies the data into a private buffer that can be safely modified in
place. This is the same pattern used by:
- ESP (net/ipv4/esp4.c, net/ipv6/esp6.c)
- MACsec (drivers/net/macsec.c)
- WireGuard (drivers/net/wireguard/receive.c)
- TIPC (net/tipc/crypto.c)
Without this guard, in-place crypto on shared skb data leads to:
- Silent data corruption of other skb clones
- Use-after-free when the crypto API scatterwalk writes through a
page that has already been freed by another clone's kfree_skb()
- Kernel crashes under concurrent 802.15.4 traffic with security
enabled (KASAN/KMSAN reports slab-use-after-free)

The transmit loop in airoha_dev_xmit() reads fragment address and length

uninitialized. While these values are never consumed, the read itself is
unsafe and may trigger a page fault. Fix this by avoiding the fragment
read on the last iteration.

netfilter: nf_tables: add hook transactions for device deletions
Restore the flag that indicates that the hook is going away, ie.
NFT_HOOK_REMOVE, but add a new transaction object to track deletion
of hooks without altering the basechain/flowtable hook_list during
the preparation phase.
The existing approach that moves the hook from the basechain/flowtable
hook_list to transaction hook_list breaks netlink dump path readers
of this RCU-protected list.
It should be possible use an array for nft_trans_hook to store the
deleted hooks to compact the representation but I am not expecting
many hook object, specially now that wildcard support for devices
is in place.
Note that the nft_trans_chain_hooks() list contains a list of struct
nft_trans_hook objects for DELCHAIN and DELFLOWTABLE commands, while
this list stores struct nft_hook objects for NEWCHAIN and NEWFLOWTABLE.
Note that new commands can be updated to use nft_trans_hook for
consistency.
This patch also adapts the event notification path to deal with the list
of hook transactions.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.8 CVE-2026-63860In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/core: Prefer NLA_NUL_STRING
These attributes are evaluated as c-string (passed to strcmp), but
NLA_STRING doesn't check for the presence of a \0 terminator.
Either this needs to switch to nla_strcmp() and needs to adjust printf fmt
specifier to not use plain %s, or this needs to use NLA_NUL_STRING.
As the code has been this way for long time, it seems to me that userspace
does include the terminating nul, even tough its not enforced so far, and
thus NLA_NUL_STRING use is the simpler solution.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 8.4 CVE-2026-63863In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: mac80211: limit injected antenna index in ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap
When parsing the radiotap header of an injected frame,
ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap() uses the IEEE80211_RADIOTAP_ANTENNA value
directly as a shift count:
info->control.antennas |= BIT(*iterator.this_arg);
*iterator.this_arg is an 8-bit value taken straight from the frame
supplied by userspace, so BIT() can be asked to shift by up to 255. That
is undefined behaviour on the unsigned long and is reported by UBSAN:

ieee802154: 6lowpan: only accept IPv6 packets in lowpan_xmit()
The aoe driver (or similar) generates a non-IPv6 packet
(e.g., ETH_P_AOE) and queues it for transmission via dev_queue_xmit()
on a 6LoWPAN interface (configured by the user or test case).
Since the packet is not IPv6, the 6LoWPAN header_ops->create function
(lowpan_header_create or header_create) returns early without initializing
the lowpan_addr_info structure in the skb headroom.
In the transmit function (lowpan_xmit), the driver calls lowpan_header
(or setup_header) which unconditionally copies and uses the lowpan_addr_info
from the headroom, which contains uninitialized data.
Fix this by dropping non IPv6 packets.
A similar fix is needed in net/bluetooth/6lowpan.c bt_xmit().NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.8 CVE-2026-63872In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
esp: fix page frag reference leak on skb_to_sgvec failure
In esp_output_tail(), when esp->inplace is false, the old skb page frags
are replaced with a new page from the xfrm page_frag cache. The source
scatterlist (sg) is built from the old frags before the replacement, and
esp_ssg_unref() is responsible for releasing the old page references
after the crypto operation completes.
However, if the second skb_to_sgvec() call (which builds the destination
scatterlist from the new page) fails, the code jumps to error_free which
only calls kfree(tmp). The old page frag references captured in the
source scatterlist are never released:
1. sg[] is built from old frags via skb_to_sgvec() (no extra get_page)
2. nr_frags is set to 1 and frag[0] is replaced with the new page
3. Second skb_to_sgvec() fails -> goto error_free
4. kfree(tmp) frees the sg[] memory but old frags are not unref'd
5. kfree_skb() only releases frag[0] (the new page), not the old ones
Fix this by adding a bool parameter to esp_ssg_unref() that, when true,
unconditionally unrefs the source scatterlist frags without checking
req->src and req->dst, since those fields are not yet initialized by
aead_request_set_crypt() at the point of the error. Existing callers
pass false to preserve the original behavior.
The same issue exists in both esp4 and esp6 as the code is identical.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.5 CVE-2026-63874In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mctp: usb: fix race between urb completion and rx_retry cancellation
It's possible that sequencing between setting ->stopped and cancelling
the rx_retry work (in ndo_stop) could leave us with an urb queued:

That urb completion can then re-schedule rx_retry_work.
Strenghen the sequencing between the stop (preventing another requeue)
and the cancel by updating both atomically under a new rx lock. After
setting ->rx_stopped, and cancelling pending work, we know that the
requeue cannot occur, so all that's left is killing any pending urb.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.8 CVE-2026-63875In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: tlb: Flush walk cache when unsharing PMD tables
When huge_pmd_unshare() is called to unshare a PMD table, the
tlb_unshare_pmd_ptdesc() function sets tlb->unshared_tables=true
but the aarch64 tlb_flush() only checked tlb->freed_tables to
determine whether to use TLBF_NONE (vae1is, invalidates walk
cache) or TLBF_NOWALKCACHE (vale1is, leaf-only).
This caused the stale PMD page table entry to remain in the walk cache
after unshare, potentially leading to incorrect page table walks.
Fix by including unshared_tables in the check, so that when
unsharing tables, TLBF_NONE is used and the walk cache is properly
invalidated.
Here is the detailed distinction between vae1is and vale1is:
| Instruction Combination | Actual Invalidation Scope |
| ------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------|
| `VAE1IS` + TTL=`0` | All entries at all levels (full invalidation) |
| `VAE1IS` + TTL=`2` (L2) | Non-leaf at Level 0/1 + leaf at Level 2 |

serial: qcom_geni: fix kfifo underflow when flush precedes DMA completion IRQ
When uart_flush_buffer() runs before the DMA completion IRQ is delivered,
the following race can occur (all steps serialized by uart_port_lock):
1. DMA starts: tx_remaining = N, kfifo contains N bytes
2. DMA completes in hardware; IRQ is pending but not yet delivered
3. uart_flush_buffer() acquires the port lock and calls kfifo_reset(),
making kfifo_len() = 0 while tx_remaining remains N
4. uart_flush_buffer() releases the port lock
5. DMA IRQ fires; handle_tx_dma() acquires the port lock and calls
uart_xmit_advance(uport, tx_remaining) on an empty kfifo
uart_xmit_advance() increments kfifo->out by tx_remaining. Since
kfifo_reset() already set both in and out to 0, out wraps past in,
causing kfifo_len() to return UART_XMIT_SIZE - tx_remaining. The next
start_tx_dma() call then submits a DMA transfer of stale buffer data.
Fix this by snapshotting kfifo_len() at the start of handle_tx_dma()
and skipping uart_xmit_advance() when fifo_len < tx_remaining, which
indicates the kfifo was reset by a preceding flush.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.3 CVE-2026-63884In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

during the window between spin_unlock(table_lock) and the final
spin_lock(table_lock). A concurrent drm_gem_handle_delete on the old
handle succeeds in this window, decrements handle_count to 0, and frees
the GEM object while the new handle's IDR entry still references it.
NULL the old handle's IDR entry before dropping table_lock so that any
concurrent GEM_CLOSE on the old handle sees NULL and returns -EINVAL.
Restore the old entry on the prime-bookkeeping error path.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 8.8 CVE-2026-63886In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iscsi: Validate CHAP_R length before base64 decode
chap_server_compute_hash() allocates client_digest as
kzalloc(chap->digest_size) and then, for BASE64-encoded responses,
passes chap_r directly to chap_base64_decode() without checking whether
the input length could produce more than digest_size bytes of output.
chap_base64_decode() writes to the destination unconditionally as long
as there is input to consume. With MAX_RESPONSE_LENGTH set to 128 and
the "0b" prefix stripped by extract_param(), up to 127 base64 characters
can reach the decoder. 127 characters decode to 95 bytes. For SHA-256
(digest_size=32) this overflows client_digest by 63 bytes; for MD5
(digest_size=16) the overflow is 79 bytes.
The length check at line 344 fires after the write has already happened.
The HEX branch in the same switch statement already validates the length
up front. Apply the same approach to the BASE64 branch: strip trailing
base64 padding characters, then reject any input whose data length
exceeds DIV_ROUND_UP(digest_size * 4, 3) before calling the decoder.
Stripping trailing '=' before the comparison handles both padded and
unpadded encodings. chap_base64_decode() already returns early on '=',
so the full original string is still passed to the decoder unchanged.
The mutual CHAP path decodes CHAP_C into initiatorchg_binhex, which is
kzalloc(CHAP_CHALLENGE_STR_LEN). extract_param() caps initiatorchg at
CHAP_CHALLENGE_STR_LEN characters, so at most CHAP_CHALLENGE_STR_LEN-1
base64 characters reach the decoder. The maximum decoded size,
DIV_ROUND_UP((CHAP_CHALLENGE_STR_LEN-1) * 3, 4), is less than
CHAP_CHALLENGE_STR_LEN, so no overflow is possible there. A comment is
added at the call site to document this.NVD analysis in progress Critical CVSS 9.8 CVE-2026-63887In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iscsi: Bound iscsi_encode_text_output() appends to rsp_buf
iscsi_encode_text_output() concatenates "key=value\0" records into
login->rsp_buf, an 8192-byte kzalloc(MAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS) buffer
allocated in iscsit_alloc_login_setup_buffer(). The three sprintf() call
sites in this function (lines 1398, 1411, 1424 in v7.1-rc2) never check
the remaining buffer capacity:
*length += sprintf(output_buf, "%s=%s", er->key, er->value);
*length += 1;
output_buf = textbuf + *length;
The 8192-byte ceiling at iscsi_target_check_login_request() bounds the
*input* Login PDU payload, but a single PDU can carry up to 2048 minimal
four-byte "a=b\0" pairs, each unknown key expanding to a 16-byte
"a=NotUnderstood\0" output record via iscsi_add_notunderstood_response().
2048 * 16 = 32 KiB of output into an 8 KiB buffer, producing a ~24 KiB
heap overrun in the kmalloc-8k slab.
The fix introduces a static iscsi_encode_text_record() helper that uses
snprintf() with a per-call bounds check against the remaining buffer,
and threads a u32 textbuf_size parameter through
iscsi_encode_text_output(). Both call sites in
iscsi_target_handle_csg_zero() (PHASE_SECURITY) and
iscsi_target_handle_csg_one() (PHASE_OPERATIONAL) pass
MAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS. On overflow the encoder logs the condition, calls
iscsi_release_extra_responses() to drop queued records, and returns -1;
both caller sites now emit ISCSI_STATUS_CLS_INITIATOR_ERR /
ISCSI_LOGIN_STATUS_INIT_ERR via iscsit_tx_login_rsp() before returning,
so the initiator sees an explicit failed-login response rather than a
silent connection drop. (Prior to this patch only the PHASE_OPERATIONAL
caller did that; the PHASE_SECURITY caller is converted to the same
shape.)NVD analysis in progress Critical CVSS 9.8 CVE-2026-63888In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iscsi: Fix CRC overread and double-free in iscsit_handle_text_cmd()
Two latent bugs in the Text-phase handler, both present since the
original LIO integration in commit e48354ce078c ("iscsi-target: Add
iSCSI fabric support for target v4.1"):
1) DataDigest CRC buffer overread (4 bytes past text_in).
text_in is kzalloc()'d at ALIGN(payload_length, 4). rx_size is then
incremented by ISCSI_CRC_LEN to make room for the received DataDigest
in the iovec, but the same (now-bumped) rx_size is passed as the
buffer length to iscsit_crc_buf():
if (conn->conn_ops->DataDigest) {
...
rx_size += ISCSI_CRC_LEN;
}
...
if (conn->conn_ops->DataDigest) {
data_crc = iscsit_crc_buf(text_in, rx_size, 0, NULL);
iscsit_crc_buf() walks rx_size bytes of text_in with crc32c(), so
when DataDigest is negotiated it reads 4 bytes past the end of the
text_in allocation. KASAN reproduces this directly on the unpatched
mainline tree as slab-out-of-bounds in crc32c() called from the Text
PDU path. The OOB bytes feed crc32c() and are then compared against
the initiator-supplied checksum, so the value does not flow back to
the attacker, but the kernel does read past the buffer on every Text
PDU with DataDigest=CRC32C.
Fix by passing the actual padded payload length
(ALIGN(payload_length, 4)) that was used for the kzalloc().
2) Stale cmd->text_in_ptr re-free (double-free) on ERL>0 bad DataDigest
drop.
On DataDigest mismatch with ErrorRecoveryLevel > 0 the handler
silently drops the PDU and lets the initiator plug the CmdSN gap:
kfree(text_in);
return 0;
cmd->text_in_ptr still points at the freed buffer. The next Text
Request on the same ITT re-enters iscsit_setup_text_cmd(), which
unconditionally does
kfree(cmd->text_in_ptr);
cmd->text_in_ptr = NULL;
freeing the same pointer a second time. Session teardown via
iscsit_release_cmd() has the same shape and hits the same double-free
if the connection is dropped before a second Text Request arrives.
On an unmodified mainline tree the bug-1 CRC overread fires first on
the initial valid Text Request and perturbs the subsequent state, so
#4 was isolated by building a kernel with only the bug-1 hunk of this
patch applied plus temporary printk() observability around the three
relevant kfree() sites. The observability prints are not part of
this patch. On that build, a three-PDU Text Request sequence after
login produces two back-to-back splats:
BUG: KASAN: double-free in iscsit_setup_text_cmd+0x??
BUG: KASAN: double-free in iscsit_release_cmd+0x??
showing the same pointer freed in the ERL>0 drop path and again in
iscsit_setup_text_cmd() (next Text Request on the same ITT) and once
more in iscsit_release_cmd() (session teardown). On distro kernels
with CONFIG_SLAB_FREELIST_HARDENED=y (default) the double-free
becomes a remote kernel BUG(); on non-hardened kernels it corrupts
the slab freelist.
Fix by clearing cmd->text_in_ptr after the kfree() in the ERL>0 drop
path. With both hunks applied #4 is directly observable on the stock
tree without observability printks; fixing bug-1 alone would mask #4
less, not more, so the hunks are submitted together.
Both fixes are one-liners. The Text PDU state machine is unchanged and
the wire protocol is unaffected.NVD analysis in progress Critical CVSS 9.8 CVE-2026-63889In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: scsi_transport_fc: Widen FPIN pname walker counter to u32
An adjacent Fibre Channel fabric actor that can deliver an FPIN ELS
frame to an lpfc or qla2xxx Linux initiator can trigger a non-return in
the generic FC transport. This is not a local userspace or IP network
path; the attacker must be able to inject fabric traffic, for example as
a compromised switch or fabric controller, or as a same-zone N_Port on a
fabric that permits source spoofing.
The Link-Integrity and Peer-Congestion FPIN walkers used a u8 loop
counter against the 32-bit on-wire pname_count field, and did not bound
pname_count by the descriptor body already validated by the TLV walker.
A pname_count of 256 therefore wraps the counter and keeps the loop
condition true indefinitely.
Factor the shared pname_list[] walk into one helper, widen the counter
to u32, and clamp pname_count against the entries that fit in the
descriptor body before iterating.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 8.1 CVE-2026-63893In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
thunderbolt: property: Reject u32 wrap in tb_property_entry_valid()
entry->value is u32 and entry->length is u16; the sum is performed in
u32 and wraps. A malicious XDomain peer can pick
value = 0xffffff00, length = 0x100 so the sum 0x100000000 wraps to 0
and passes the > block_len check. tb_property_parse() then passes
entry->value to parse_dwdata() as a dword offset into the property
block, reading attacker-directed memory far past the allocation.
For TEXT-typed entries with the "deviceid" or "vendorid" keys this
lands in xd->device_name / xd->vendor_name and is readable back via
the per-XDomain device_name / vendor_name sysfs attributes; the leak
is NUL-bounded (kstrdup() stops at the first zero byte) and
untargeted (the attacker picks a delta, not an absolute address).
DATA-typed entries are parsed into property->value.data but not
generically surfaced to userspace.
Use check_add_overflow() so a wrapped sum is rejected.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 8.1 CVE-2026-63894In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_fs: serialize DMABUF cancel against request completion
ffs_epfile_dmabuf_io_complete() calls usb_ep_free_request() on the
completed request but leaves priv->req, the back-pointer that
ffs_dmabuf_transfer() set on submission, pointing at the freed
memory. A later FUNCTIONFS_DMABUF_DETACH ioctl or
ffs_epfile_release() on the close path still sees priv->req
non-NULL under ffs->eps_lock:
if (priv->ep && priv->req)
usb_ep_dequeue(priv->ep, priv->req);
so usb_ep_dequeue() is called on a freed usb_request.
On dummy_hcd the dequeue path only walks a live queue and
pointer-compares, so the freed pointer reads without faulting and
KASAN requires an explicit check at the FunctionFS call site to
surface the use-after-free. On SG-capable in-tree UDCs the
dequeue path dereferences the supplied request immediately:
* chipidea's ep_dequeue() does
container_of(req, struct ci_hw_req, req) and reads
hwreq->req.status before acquiring its own lock.
* cdnsp's cdnsp_gadget_ep_dequeue() reads request->status first.
The narrower option of clearing priv->req via cmpxchg() in the
completion does not close the race: the completion runs without
eps_lock, so a cancel path holding eps_lock can still observe
priv->req non-NULL, race a concurrent completion that clears and
frees, and pass the freed pointer to usb_ep_dequeue(). A slightly
longer fix that moves the free into the cleanup work is needed.
Same class of lifetime race as the recent usbip-vudc timer fix [1].
Take eps_lock in the sole place that mutates priv->req from the
callback direction by moving usb_ep_free_request() out of the
completion into ffs_dmabuf_cleanup(), the existing work handler
scheduled by ffs_dmabuf_signal_done() on
ffs->io_completion_wq. Clear priv->req there under eps_lock
before freeing, and only clear if priv->req still names our
request (a subsequent ffs_dmabuf_transfer() on the same
attachment may have queued a new one).
This keeps the existing dummy_hcd sync-dequeue invariant: the
completion callback is still invoked by the UDC without
eps_lock held (dummy_hcd drops its own lock before calling the
callback), and the callback now takes no f_fs lock at all.
Serialization against the cancel path happens in cleanup, which
runs from the workqueue with no f_fs lock held on entry.
The priv ref count protects the containing ffs_dmabuf_priv:
ffs_dmabuf_transfer() takes a ref via ffs_dmabuf_get(), cleanup
drops it via ffs_dmabuf_put(), so priv stays live for the
cleanup even after the cancel path's list_del + ffs_dmabuf_put.
The ffs_dmabuf_transfer() error path no longer frees usb_req
inline: fence->req and fence->ep are set before usb_ep_queue(),
so ffs_dmabuf_cleanup() (scheduled by the error-path
ffs_dmabuf_signal_done()) owns the free regardless of whether
the queue succeeded.
Reproduced under KASAN on both detach and close paths against
dummy_hcd with an observability hook
(kasan_check_byte(priv->req) immediately before usb_ep_dequeue)
at the two FunctionFS cancel sites to surface the stale-pointer
access; the hook is not part of this patch. The KASAN
allocator / free stacks in the captured splats identify the
same request: alloc in dummy_alloc_request, free in
dummy_timer, fault reached from ffs_epfile_release (close) and
from the FUNCTIONFS_DMABUF_DETACH ioctl (detach). With the
patch applied, both paths are silent under the same hook.
The bug is reached from the FunctionFS device node, which in
real deployments is owned by the privileged gadget daemon
(adbd, UMS, composite gadget services, etc.); it is not
reachable from unprivileged userspace or from a USB host on the
cable. FunctionFS mounts default to GLOBAL_ROOT_UID, but the
filesystem supports uid=, gid=, and fmode= delegation to a
non-root gadget daemon, so on real deployments the attacker may
be a less-privileged service rather than root.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.8 CVE-2026-63906In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ksmbd: OOB read regression in smb_check_perm_dacl() ACE-walk loops
Commit d07b26f39246 ("ksmbd: require minimum ACE size in
smb_check_perm_dacl()") introduced a transposed bounds check:
if (offsetof(struct smb_ace, sid) + aces_size < CIFS_SID_BASE_SIZE)
Since offsetof(..sid) is 8 and CIFS_SID_BASE_SIZE is 8, this evaluates
to `aces_size < 0`. Because `aces_size` is always non-negative, this
check becomes dead code and never breaks the loop.
Worse, that commit removed the old 4-byte guard, meaning the loop now
reads `ace->size` (offset 2) even when `aces_size` is 0-3 bytes. This
re-opens a 2-byte heap out-of-bounds (OOB) read past the pntsd allocation
during subsequent SMB2_CREATE operations.
Fix this by properly transposing the comparison to require at least
16 bytes (8-byte offset + 8-byte SID base), matching the correct form
used in smb_inherit_dacl().NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 8.1 CVE-2026-63910In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma-buf: fix UAF in dma_buf_fd() tracepoint
Once FD_ADD() returns, the fd is live in the file descriptor table
and a thread sharing that table can close() it before DMA_BUF_TRACE()
runs. The close drops the last reference, __fput() frees the dma_buf,
and the tracepoint then dereferences dmabuf to take dmabuf->name_lock
-- slab-use-after-free.
Split FD_ADD() back into get_unused_fd_flags() + fd_install() and
emit the tracepoint between them. While the fdtable slot is reserved
with a NULL file pointer, a racing close() returns -EBADF without
entering __fput(), so the dma_buf stays alive across the trace. Same
approach as commit 2d76319c4cbb ("dma-buf: fix UAF in dma_buf_put()
tracepoint").
This undoes the FD_ADD() conversion done in commit 34dfce523c90
("dma: convert dma_buf_fd() to FD_ADD()"); FD_ADD() has no place to
hook the tracepoint safely.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.8 CVE-2026-63911In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: iptfs: reset runtime state when cloning SAs
iptfs_clone_state() clones the IPTFS mode data with kmemdup(). This
copies runtime objects which must not be shared with the original SA,
including the embedded sk_buff_head, hrtimers, spinlock, and in-flight
reassembly/reorder state.
If xfrm_state_migrate() fails after clone_state() but before the later
init_state() call has reinitialized those fields, the cloned state can be
destroyed by xfrm_state_gc_task() with list and timer state copied from the
original SA. With queued packets this lets the clone splice and free skbs
owned by the original IPTFS queue, leading to use-after-free and
double-free reports in iptfs_destroy_state() and skb release paths.
Reinitialize the clone's runtime state before publishing it through
x->mode_data. Because clone_state() now publishes a destroyable mode_data
object before init_state(), take the mode callback module reference there.
Avoid taking it again from __iptfs_init_state() for the same object.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.8 CVE-2026-63912In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: esp: restore combined single-frag length gate
The ESP out-of-place fast path appends the trailer in esp_output_head()
before esp_output_tail() allocates the destination page frag. The
head-side gate currently checks skb->data_len and tailen separately, but
the tail code allocates a single destination frag from the combined
post-trailer skb->data_len.
Reject the page-frag fast path when the combined aligned length exceeds a
page. Otherwise skb_page_frag_refill() may fall back to a single page while
the destination sg still spans the combined skb->data_len.

netfilter: conntrack: tcp: do not force CLOSE on invalid-seq RST without direction check
An unintended behavior in the TCP conntrack state machine allows a
connection to be forced into the CLOSE state using an RST packet with an
invalid sequence number.
Specifically, after a SYN packet is observed, an RST with an invalid SEQ
can transition the conntrack entry to TCP_CONNTRACK_CLOSE, regardless of
whether the RST corresponds to the expected reply direction. The relevant
code path assumes the RST is a response to an outgoing SYN, but does not
validate packet direction or ensure that a matching SYN was actually sent
in the opposite direction.
As a result, a crafted packet sequence consisting of a SYN followed by an
invalid-sequence RST can prematurely terminate an active NAT entry. This
makes connection teardown easier than intended.
So, tighten the state transition logic to ensure that RST-triggered
CLOSE transitions only occur when the RST is a valid response to a
previously observed SYN in the correct direction.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 8.2 CVE-2026-63914In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfrm: route MIGRATE notifications to caller's netns
xfrm_send_migrate() in net/xfrm/xfrm_user.c and pfkey_send_migrate()
in net/key/af_key.c both hardcode &init_net for the multicast that
announces a successful XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE / SADB_X_MIGRATE.
XFRM_MSG_MIGRATE arrives on a per-netns NETLINK_XFRM socket, and the
rest of the xfrm/af_key netlink path was made netns-aware in 2008.
The other 14 multicast paths in xfrm_user.c route their event using
xs_net(x), xp_net(xp) or sock_net(skb->sk); only the migrate path
was missed.
Two consequences of the init_net hardcoding:
1. The notification (selector, old/new endpoint addresses, and the
km_address) is delivered to listeners on init_net's
XFRMNLGRP_MIGRATE / pfkey BROADCAST_ALL groups rather than on
the issuing netns. An IKE daemon running in init_net therefore
receives migration notifications originating from any other
netns on the host.
2. An IKE daemon running inside a non-init netns and subscribed
to its own XFRMNLGRP_MIGRATE / pfkey groups never receives the
notification of its own migration. IKEv2 MOBIKE / address-update
handling inside a netns is silently broken.
Thread struct net through km_migrate() and the xfrm_mgr.migrate
function pointer, drop the &init_net override in xfrm_send_migrate()
and pfkey_send_migrate(), and pass the caller's net (already in
scope in xfrm_migrate() via sock_net(skb->sk)) all the way down.
struct xfrm_mgr is in-tree only and not exported as a stable API,
so the function-pointer signature change is internal.
pfkey_broadcast() is already netns-aware via net_generic(net,
pfkey_net_id) since the pernet conversion. The five other
pfkey_broadcast() callers in af_key.c already pass xs_net(x),
sock_net(sk) or a per-netns net, so this only removes the
&init_net outlier.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.3 CVE-2026-63915In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: hci: fix out-of-bounds read in HCP header parsing
Both nfc_hci_recv_from_llc() and nci_hci_data_received_cb() read
packet->header from skb->data at function entry without first checking
that the buffer holds at least one byte. A malicious NFC peer can send
a 0-byte HCP frame that passes through the SHDLC layer and reaches
these functions, causing an out-of-bounds heap read of packet->header.
The same 0-byte frame, if queued as a non-final fragment, also causes
the reassembly loop to underflow msg_len to UINT_MAX, triggering
skb_over_panic() when the reassembled skb is written.
Fix this by adding a pskb_may_pull() check at the entry of each
function before packet->header is first accessed. The existing
pskb_may_pull() checks before the reassembled hcp_skb is cast to
struct hcp_packet remain in place to guard the 2-byte HCP message

HID: wacom: Fix OOB write in wacom_hid_set_device_mode()
wacom_hid_set_device_mode() currently assumes that the HID_DG_INPUTMODE
usage is always located in the first field (field[0]) of the feature report.
However, a device can specify HID_DG_INPUTMODE in a different field.
If HID_DG_INPUTMODE is in a field other than the first one and the first
field has a report_count smaller than the usage_index of HID_DG_INPUTMODE,
this leads to an out-of-bounds write to r->field[0]->value.
Fix this by storing the field index of HID_DG_INPUTMODE in 'struct
hid_data' during feature mapping. In wacom_hid_set_device_mode(), use
this stored field index to access the correct field and add bounds

l2tp: use refcount_inc_not_zero in l2tp_session_get_by_ifname
A reader in l2tp_session_get_by_ifname() can return a pointer to a
session whose refcount has reached zero. The getter takes its
reference with plain refcount_inc(), but every other session getter
in the same file (l2tp_v2_session_get, l2tp_v3_session_get, and the
corresponding _get_next variants) uses refcount_inc_not_zero()
because the IDR/RCU lookup can race with refcount_dec_and_test() ->
l2tp_session_free() -> kfree_rcu(). The ifname getter is the only
outlier; the inconsistency was raised on-list after 979c017803c4
("l2tp: use list_del_rcu in l2tp_session_unhash").
A reader inside rcu_read_lock_bh() that matches session->ifname can
be preempted between the strcmp() and the refcount_inc(). If the
last reference drops on another CPU in that window, the reader's
refcount_inc() runs on a counter that has reached zero. refcount_t
catches the addition-on-zero, prints "refcount_t: addition on 0;
use-after-free", saturates the counter, and returns the saturated
pointer to the caller. Session memory is held live by the in-flight
RCU read section, but the kfree_rcu() callback queued from
l2tp_session_free() will free it once the grace period closes; a
caller that dereferences the returned session past that point hits
a slab-use-after-free. On PREEMPT_RT local_bh_disable() is a per-CPU
sleeping lock and the preemption window is real; on stock PREEMPT
kernels local_bh_disable() is a preempt_count increment that closes
the cross-CPU race in practice (see below).
Use refcount_inc_not_zero() and continue the list walk on failure,
matching the other session getters in the file. The ifname getter
is the only session getter in net/l2tp/ that still uses the bare
refcount_inc() pattern; this change restores file-internal
consistency. The success path is unchanged.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.8 CVE-2026-63919In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipv6: validate extension header length before copying to cmsg
ip6_datagram_recv_specific_ctl() builds IPV6_{HOPOPTS,DSTOPTS,RTHDR}
cmsgs (and their IPV6_2292* legacy counterparts) by trusting the
on-wire hdrlen byte (ptr[1]) when computing the put_cmsg() length.
The length was validated only at parse time (ipv6_parse_hopopts(),

unprivileged user namespace, so this is an unprivileged
slab-out-of-bounds read:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in put_cmsg+0x3ac/0x540
put_cmsg+0x3ac/0x540
udpv6_recvmsg+0xca0/0x1250
sock_recvmsg+0xdf/0x190
____sys_recvmsg+0x1b1/0x620
Add ipv6_get_exthdr_len() which validates that at least two bytes
are accessible before reading the hdrlen field, then checks the
computed length against skb_tail_pointer(skb), returning 0 on
failure. Extension headers are kept in the linear skb area by
pskb_may_pull() during input, so skb_tail_pointer() is the correct
bound.
Use ipv6_get_exthdr_len() at all non-AH call sites: the five
standalone cmsg blocks (HbH, 2292HbH, 2292DSTOPTS x2, 2292RTHDR)
and the three standard cases in the extension-header walk loop
(DSTOPTS, ROUTING, default). AH retains an inline bounds check
because its length formula differs ((ptr[1]+2)<<2).
The walk loop also gets a pre-read bounds check at the top to
validate ptr before any case accesses ptr[0] or ptr[1].
When the walk loop detects a corrupted header, return from the
function instead of continuing to process later socket options.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 7.1 CVE-2026-63921In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ip6: vti: Use ip6_tnl.net in vti6_siocdevprivate().
After patch 1/2 in this series, vti6_update() unlinks and relinks
the tunnel through t->net. vti6_siocdevprivate() still uses
dev_net(dev) for the collision lookup. For a tunnel moved through
IFLA_NET_NS_FD, dev_net(dev) is the new netns, not t->net.
SIOCCHGTUNNEL on a migrated tunnel then runs:
net = dev_net(dev) /* migrated netns */
t = vti6_locate(net, &p1, false) /* misses target in t->net */
...
t = netdev_priv(dev)
vti6_update(t, &p1, false) /* mutates t->net's hash */
A caller in the migrated netns picks params that match a tunnel
in the creation netns. The lookup in dev_net(dev) finds nothing.
vti6_update() prepends the migrated tunnel at the head of the
creation netns hash bucket for those params. Later lookups in
the creation netns resolve to the migrated device. xfrm receive
delivers the matched packets through a device the caller controls.
Reachable from an unprivileged user namespace (unshare --user
--map-root-user --net). Cross tenant scope on container hosts.
Switch the SIOCCHGTUNNEL path on a non fallback device to use
t->net for the lookup. The lookup now matches the netns
vti6_update() operates on.
Also add ns_capable(self->net->user_ns, CAP_NET_ADMIN) before
the lookup. The check at the top of the case is against
dev_net(dev)->user_ns, which after migration is the attacker's
netns. A caller there can pick params absent from self->net,
the lookup returns NULL, t becomes self, and vti6_update()
inserts the device into the creation netns hash. The new check
requires CAP_NET_ADMIN in the creation netns user_ns too.
SIOCADDTUNNEL and SIOCCHGTUNNEL on the fallback device keep
dev_net(dev), which equals init_net there.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 8.8 CVE-2026-63922In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: exthdrs: refresh nh after handling HAO option
ip6_parse_tlv() caches skb_network_header(skb) in nh while walking
IPv6 TLVs.
ipv6_dest_hao() may call pskb_expand_head() for a cloned skb, which can
move the skb head and invalidate the cached network header pointer.
Refresh nh after ipv6_dest_hao() returns so any trailing padding or TLVs
are parsed from the current skb head.
This matches the existing pattern used in ip6_parse_tlv() after helpers
that can modify skb header storage.NVD analysis in progress Critical CVSS 9.8 CVE-2026-63923In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
octeontx2-af: validate body pcifunc in rvu_mbox_handler_rep_event_notify
rvu_mbox_handler_rep_event_notify() in drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/
octeontx2/af/rvu_rep.c queues a sender-controlled REP_EVENT_NOTIFY
request body verbatim, and rvu_rep_up_notify() then forwards
event->pcifunc (the nested body field, distinct from the
AF-normalised header pcifunc) into rvu_get_pfvf(), rvu_get_pf() and
the AF->PF mailbox device index without any bounds check.
A VF attached to a PF that has been put into switchdev
representor mode reaches this path: the VF mailbox handler
otx2_pfvf_mbox_handler() forwards every message id including
MBOX_MSG_REP_EVENT_NOTIFY to AF without an allowlist, and the AF
dispatcher rewrites only msg->pcifunc, leaving struct
rep_event::pcifunc attacker-controlled. The sibling
rvu_mbox_handler_esw_cfg() refuses requests whose header pcifunc
is not rvu->rep_pcifunc; this handler has no equivalent gate.
An out-of-range body pcifunc selects an &rvu->pf[]/&rvu->hwvf[]
element past the allocated array and, for RVU_EVENT_MAC_ADDR_CHANGE,
turns into a six-byte attacker-chosen OOB ether_addr_copy() target
inside the queued worker; KASAN reports a slab-out-of-bounds write
in rvu_rep_wq_handler.
Reject malformed requests at the handler entry by gating on
is_pf_func_valid(), which is already the canonical PF/VF range check
in this driver; expose it via rvu.h so callers in rvu_rep.c can use
it instead of open-coding the same range arithmetic.NVD analysis in progress High CVSS 8.8 1801–1900 / 5155 CVE
