| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
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(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack_expect: zero at allocation time
There are occasional LLM hints wrt. leaking uninitialized data to
userspace via ctnetlink. Just zero at allocation time,
expectations are not frequently used these days.
Intentionally keeps _init as-is because we could theoretically
support re-init, so add the missing exp->dir there. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfs: clear post-EOF pagecache when extending a file via write
Fix netfs to erase the contents of a hole created after the EOF by an
ordinary write if dirty data has been previously left there by writes
through an mmapped region. Neither the buffered nor the unbuffered/DIO
write path clears that stale pagecache.
Zero the tail of the folio straddling the EOF before an extending
write. That is the only folio that can hold data written past the EOF
through an mmap, as pages wholly beyond the EOF can't be faulted in.
The folio is zeroed rather than dropped so a concurrent extending write
can't lose data.
Both write paths downgrade the i_rwsem to shared, so extending writes
can run concurrently and the i_size read by the caller may be stale by
the time the folio is locked. Re-read i_size under the folio lock and
clamp the zeroed range up to it, so a racing write that already put
data into the folio isn't clobbered.
Wait for any writeback on the folio to finish before zeroing it so that
the pagecache isn't modified while it may still be read by the transport
during transmission. Honour IOCB_NOWAIT by returning -EAGAIN rather
than blocking on the folio lock, on writeback, or in folio_mkclean()'s
rmap walk when the folio is mapped.
truncate_pagecache() can't be used here: it must be called with the
i_rwsem held exclusively, but these write paths only hold it shared,
and it would block unconditionally, breaking IOCB_NOWAIT.
Callers that hold i_rwsem exclusively for the whole resize (truncate,
setattr, fallocate, clone) exclude any genuine concurrent buffered
writer, so staleness can instead be decided from the folio's dirty
state, as pagecache_isize_extended() already does for filesystems that
serialise writes against truncate/setattr via a single i_rwsem.
Export netfs_clear_stale_post_isize() helper to handle such case.
The helper is required by the CIFS client to fix generic/363. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: storage: sierra_ms: reject short SWoC info transfers
sierra_get_swoc_info() requests sizeof(struct swoc_info) (60) bytes
from the device via usb_control_msg(), but its callers only treat a
negative return value as failure. A device that answers the
vendor-specific GetSwocInfo request with a short IN transfer is
therefore accepted, leaving the tail of the freshly allocated
(kmalloc(), non-zeroing) swoc_info buffer uninitialized.
truinst_show() subsequently prints swocInfo->rev, swocInfo->LinuxSKU
and swocInfo->LinuxVer from that buffer into the world-readable
(0444) "truinst" sysfs attribute. An emulated/malicious USB device
(VID 0x1199, PID 0x0fff) can exploit this to disclose up to 5 bytes
of stale kernel heap memory (kmalloc-64) to unprivileged userspace,
once per sysfs read, indefinitely. On kernels built without
init_on_alloc this leaks recently freed heap contents.
Only accept the transfer when the full structure was received.
sierra_ms_init() already retries failed queries, so well-behaved
devices are unaffected. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
macsec: initialize SecY before registering the netdevice
Creating a MACsec device with MAC offload over an LRO-capable lower
device triggers a warning in rtmsg_ifinfo_build_skb() when IPv4
forwarding is enabled by default.
register_netdevice() invokes inetdev_init(), which disables LRO and emits
a NETDEV_FEAT_CHANGE notification. This reaches macsec_fill_info() before
macsec_add_dev() initializes the SecY. key_len is still zero, so
macsec_fill_info() returns -EMSGSIZE and trips the WARN_ON in
rtmsg_ifinfo_build_skb(), even though the skb has enough space.
Even without the warning, notifications during registration can report
uninitialized SecY attributes, including the SCI. This ordering has existed
since the driver was introduced.
Initialize the SecY and apply the new-link attributes before registration.
Move MAC address inheritance into macsec_newlink() so the SCI can also be
initialized before registration-time notifications report it. Move the
per-CPU statistics and metadata destination allocation into ndo_init(),
and release partial allocations on failure. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rust: irq: pass RegistrationInner as cookie to request_irq
With commit ba268514ea14 ("rust: devres: fix race condition due to
nesting"), Devres::new() returns Result<Self> by value instead of
initializing in-place via PinInit. Because request_irq() is called
inside Devres::new(), registration.inner is still uninitialized when the
IRQ is enabled, so accessing registration.inner.device() in the IRQ
callback can read uninitialized memory.
Fix this by storing the Device and handler pointer in RegistrationInner
and passing RegistrationInner as the IRQ cookie after its fields are
initialized.
This is not needed in mainline because commit 98c63ce4d760 ("rust: irq:
make Registration compatible with lifetime-bound drivers") removed
Devres from irq::Registration and moved request_irq() after all fields
are initialized. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rtc: dev: zero-initialize struct rtc_wkalrm to prevent information leak
The struct rtc_wkalrm has padding holes after the 'pending' member.
When returned to userspace via the RTC_WKALRM_RD ioctl, uninitialized
kernel stack data residing in these holes may be leaked.
Zero-initialize the struct at declaration to eliminate this information
leak risk.
Fixes smatch warnings:
- drivers/rtc/dev.c:392 rtc_dev_ioctl() warn: check that 'alarm' doesn't
leak information (struct has a hole after 'pending') |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
riscv: ptrace: Zero-initialize regset buffers before copyin
user_regset_copyin() only copies `count` bytes, so a PTRACE_SETREGSET
request with a short iov_len leaves the rest of the stack buffer
uninitialized. In riscv_vr_set() that garbage is validated and copied
into the target's vstate, and in riscv_cfi_set() it can be stored as
the target's shadow stack pointer. Zero both buffers, as the get path
already does. |

| Wasmtime before 36.0.17, 37.0.0 before 48.0.4, and 49.0.0 before 49.0.2 contains an information disclosure vulnerability in the WASIp1 fd_readdir implementation that copies uninitialized struct padding into guest memory. Guests with a preopened directory can list entries to receive three bytes of leftover host stack or heap memory per directory entry. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: codecs: max98363: fix uninitialized stream_config->type
stream_config is not initialized before being passed to
sdw_stream_add_slave(). The type field may contain garbage and is
later copied to stream->type by sdw_config_stream().
Zero-initialize stream_config so type defaults to SDW_STREAM_PCM. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: rawnand: cadence: Initialize IRQ state before requesting IRQ
The Cadence NAND interrupt handler uses both the IRQ lock and completion
object. Registering the IRQ before initializing them leaves a window in
which a pending interrupt can access uninitialized synchronization state.
Initialize them before registering the handler. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvmet: copy the hostid into the ctrl before creating PR pc_refs
Commit 6202783184bf ("nvmet: Improve nvmet_alloc_ctrl() interface and
implementation") added a second uuid_copy() of args->hostid near the end
of nvmet_alloc_ctrl(), and commit 7b658153f1b8 ("nvmet: Remove duplicate
uuid_copy") removed the original copy that sat before
nvmet_ctrl_init_pr() instead of the new one.
Since then nvmet_ctrl_init_pr() snapshots ctrl->hostid into the
per-controller per-namespace reservation refs while the uuid_copy()
from the connect data runs later, after the controller is published.
The ctrl is allocated with kzalloc(), so every pc_ref created on this
path stores the nil UUID.
pc_ref->hostid has a single consumer: nvmet_pr_set_ctrl_to_abort()
matches it against the preempted registrant's hostid to kill and drain
the victim's in-flight I/O for Preempt and Abort. The match can never
hit with the nil UUID, so whenever a namespace with reservations
enabled exists before a host connects, which includes every reconnect,
Preempt and Abort silently degrades into a plain Preempt: the
preempting host sees success while the victim's in-flight I/O is still
in the air.
Copy the hostid where the rest of the connect data is consumed, before
the controller is published and before nvmet_ctrl_init_pr() takes its
snapshot. |
| A memory-handling weakness in the BSON deserialization component of the MongoDB C# Driver may cause data left over from previously processed content to be returned when specially crafted serialized input is parsed. An unauthenticated party able to supply serialized data to an application that maps certain primitive collection types can cause residual bytes from unrelated data processed earlier on the same execution thread to be surfaced as legitimate values. This can result in disclosure of a limited amount of information belonging to other requests or principals of the consuming application. No authentication or special privileges within the application are required. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fprobe: Terminate the fgraph_data list when the reservation is not filled
fprobe_fgraph_entry() reserves shadow stack space for every fprobe with
an exit handler, but only fills it for those whose entry handler returns
0. fgraph_reserve_data() does not clear the area, so fprobe_return()
parses the unused tail as headers left over from an earlier call, and an
exit handler can run twice or despite its entry handler asking to skip
it.
Write a zero word after the last entry to terminate the walk. A zeroed
slot does not decode to a NULL fprobe on the arches that encode the
header into one unsigned long, since arch_decode_fprobe_header_fp() ORs
in FPROBE_HEADER_MSB_PATTERN, so make read_fprobe_header() return NULL
for a zeroed slot. |
