| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: processor: validate MADT IOAPIC entry bounds
The IOAPIC hotplug lookup parses both MADT and _MAT records directly.
The MADT walk previously used a subtable's declared length to advance
the cursor after only locating a generic header. The _MAT path likewise
passed a generic header to the IOAPIC helper.
Validate that a current record has a complete generic header, that its
declared length is contained in the available record range, and that a
typed IOAPIC record contains the full fixed IOAPIC body before reading
its fields. Use the same relation for both MADT and _MAT provider
paths. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
IB/isert: reject login PDUs declaring more data than was received
isert_login_recv_done() records how many bytes the HCA actually placed in
the login buffer, but nothing compares that against the length the login
PDU's BHS declares. isert_rx_login_req() copies min(login_req_len,
MAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS) bytes into login->req_buf, and the login code then
reads the declared length back out of that buffer - for the first PDU in
iscsi_target_locate_portal(),
payload_length = ntoh24(login_req->dlength);
tmpbuf = kmemdup_nul(login->req_buf, payload_length, GFP_KERNEL);
and for the ones after it in iscsi_decode_text_input(), reached from
iscsi_target_do_login().
login->req_buf is a fixed MAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS (8192) byte allocation, so
an initiator that declares more than it sends reads off the end of it,
before authentication and with the length under its control:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in kmemdup_nul+0x43/0x80

allocated 8192-byte region
Falsifying the second login PDU instead reaches the other reader, on the
same buffer:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in kmemdup_nul+0x43/0x80

iscsi_target_do_login_rx+0x51d/0x7d0
iscsit over TCP is not exposed: iscsit_get_login_rx() validates the
declared length with iscsi_target_check_login_request() and then reads
exactly that many bytes off the socket, so the declared length governs
how much arrives rather than how much is copied out of an already-filled
buffer. isert does not call iscsi_target_check_login_request() at all.
Reject a login PDU whose declared DataSegmentLength exceeds what was
received, in both paths that reach isert_rx_login_req():
isert_get_login_rx() for the first login PDU and isert_login_recv_done()
for the ones after it. dlength <= login_req_len is allowed because the
received count can include up to three bytes of iSCSI padding.
Once the check is in place the copy out can no longer exceed the copy in:
the posted login SGE is ISER_RX_PAYLOAD_SIZE, so login_req_len cannot
exceed MAX_KEY_VALUE_PAIRS and the min() in isert_rx_login_req() is
login_req_len.
Like the existing short-PDU check added by 29e7b925ae6d, the reject in
isert_login_recv_done() returns without completing login_req_comp, so a
malformed subsequent PDU leaves the login to be torn down by the login
timer rather than failing immediately. The first-PDU path returns an
error and fails straight away.
Reproduced on 7.2.0-rc4 with soft-RoCE (rdma_rxe) under KASAN, using an
initiator that sends the real key=value payload while declaring 8193 in
the BHS, on the first login PDU and on the second in separate runs. The
reported read size tracks the declared value exactly; 16384 and 61440
behave the same. Unpatched 3 of 3 runs report on each of the two paths,
patched 0 of 3 on both, run alternately in a single session, and a normal
login still completes on the patched build. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: ufs: core: Validate connected lane counts
The connected lane count is used by TX equalization code to index arrays
sized by UFS_MAX_LANES. Reject zero and out-of-range RX or TX lane counts
before they can be propagated. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: ufs: core: Validate string descriptors
The string descriptor length includes a two-byte header while the UTF-16
payload starts after it. utf16s_to_utf8s() expects a count of UTF-16 code
units, not bytes. Passing the payload byte count can make it read beyond
the descriptor buffer.
Validate that the payload has an even byte count, pass a code-unit count to
the converter, and allocate sufficient UTF-8 output space.
The raw string buffer starts after the descriptor header but its size is
bLength. Copying bLength bytes from that pointer can read beyond the
response buffer.
Allocate a zeroed bLength-sized buffer and copy only the UTF-16
payload. This preserves the raw buffer size consumed by the RPMB device-ID
ABI while avoiding the overread. |
| A security flaw has been discovered in Totolink A3002MU Hh-B20211125.1046. Affected by this vulnerability is the function formWlWds of the file /boafrm/formWlWds. The manipulation of the argument submit-url results in buffer overflow. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7996: bound TLV walk in mt7996_mcu_get_chip_config
The response TLV loop advanced by tlv->len without a minimum, so a
theoretical firmware response containing a zero-length TLV could spin
forever, hanging the CPU during device probe.
The u32 payload was also read without bounds checking.
Reject a short fixed field, stop on a TLV whose length underruns the
header or overruns the skb. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i3c: dw: avoid shift-out-of-bounds when DAA assigns no devices
On an empty bus ENTDAA assigns nothing, so cmd->rx_len (the count
of addresses left unassigned) equals master->maxdevs.
The GENMASK() index master->maxdevs - cmd->rx_len - 1 then becomes -1,
which trips up UBSAN. This happens every time on boot on a Gigabyte/AMD
server:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
remoteproc: fix OOB read via signed offset in rsc_table_for_each_entry()
table->offset[i] is a u32 from firmware, but was stored into a signed
int. A crafted offset like 0xFFFFFFF0 becomes -16, placing hdr 16 bytes
before the table buffer. The subsequent avail check was bypassed
because the negative int was promoted to a large size_t in the
expression "table_sz - offset - sizeof(*hdr)", yielding a large positive
avail and letting the out-of-bounds hdr->type read proceed undetected.
Store the offset as u32 and validate it with unsigned comparisons before
any pointer arithmetic. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2/cluster: keep heartbeat local node stable
o2nm_node_local_store() handles local=0 by stopping o2net and setting
cl_local_node to O2NM_INVALID_NODE_NUM, but it leaves cl_has_local set.
That stale state makes o2nm_this_node() return 255, blocks a later local=1
attempt with -EBUSY, and can feed 255 to heartbeat users that call
o2nm_this_node() dynamically.
Clearing cl_has_local is required when the local node is reset. But
heartbeat threads can still be running at that point. They pin the local
node config item at startup, yet o2hb_do_disk_heartbeat() and thread
teardown re-read o2nm_this_node() for the local slot and for
o2nm_undepend_this_node(). Once local=0 has cleared the live local-node
state, those dynamic reads return O2NM_MAX_NODES, which is also the
invalid node number 255.
Store the local node number in the heartbeat region when the region
starts. Use that stable node for heartbeat slot writes/checks,
negotiation messages, and the final configfs undepend. Stop the heartbeat
loop when the current local node no longer matches the stored node, and
clear cl_has_local together with cl_local_node in the local=0 path so
nodemanager state matches node removal.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: asus: refactor the two workqueues and init sequence
Multiple issues have been found within the hid-asus driver:
- unchecked size in asus_raw_event()
- unclean teardown of asus_probe on failure
- possible use-after-free in asus_probe
- multiple workqueue used for jobs where one was enough
- sleeping calls in atomic context
- packets of incorrect size being sent to the keyboard controller
Join the two workqueues into one reusing the stopping mechanism
of the brightness workqueue, use the joined workqueue to also
move the asus_wmi_send_event() sleeping call away from atomic
context and add a size check in asus_raw_event(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath10k: snoc: use memcpy_fromio() for MSA ramdump
On WCN3990/SNOC the MSA region is mapped with devm_memremap(MEMREMAP_WT).
On arm64 such a mapping is not Normal-cacheable, so unaligned accesses to
it are not permitted. ath10k_msa_dump_memory() copies the region with a
plain memcpy(), whose optimized __pi_memcpy_generic implementation issues
wide/unaligned loads. This triggers an alignment fault (FSC=0x21) Oops in
ath10k_snoc_fw_crashed_dump() while collecting the devcoredump:
Unable to handle kernel paging request ... FSC=0x21: alignment fault
pc : __pi_memcpy_generic
lr : ath10k_snoc_fw_crashed_dump [ath10k_snoc]
The Oops both leaves the firmware RAM dump buffer zeroed (no dump is
captured) and crashes the kernel, which in turn breaks modem SSR
recovery.
Use memcpy_fromio(), which only performs accesses that are valid for such
a device-memory mapping. The generic memcpy_fromio() implementation aligns
the source before issuing word-sized reads and stores the destination with
put_unaligned(), so it is also safe for the coherent DMA allocation used on
the non-reserved-memory path. ath11k and ath12k use the same pattern
when copying target memory into crash dumps, so call it unconditionally
here too.
The MEMREMAP_WT pointer is a plain void *, so an explicit __iomem cast is
needed; use __force to keep sparse happy.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: reject out-of-range link ids in mt76_vif_link()
mt76_vif_link() indexes mvif->link[] without validating link_id, but
callers pass mvif->deflink_id / msta->deflink_id, which hold
IEEE80211_LINK_UNSPECIFIED (0xf) until the first link has been added.
Since IEEE80211_MLD_MAX_NUM_LINKS is 15, that reads one element past the
end of the array, aliasing mt76_vif_data.offchannel_link.
Reachable via mt7996_set_tsf()/mt7996_offset_tsf() and
mt7996_net_fill_forward_path(). Bounds check link_id and return NULL,
matching mt7996_sta_link() and mt7996_sta_link_protected(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: qgroup: fix a wrong length calculation in qgroup_free_reserved_data()
In that function, we round down the start position and round up the
ending position.
But during the calculation of @len, we use "round_up(start + len,
sectorsize)", which is the rounded up end position, not the rounded up
length.
Which results a much larger length, and later we are still using
"start + len", which is completely incorrect.
Fix it by declaring a local @aligned_start and @aligned_len and use them
instead. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, x86: Fix trampoline stack size for 128-bit arguments
btf_distill_func_proto() accepts a function argument up to 16 bytes, so a
128-bit scalar such as __int128 reaches the x86 trampoline with
arg_size == 16. But the current implementation assumes an __int128
argument only needs one register, so the register save area is
under-allocated and save_args() overwrites adjacent stack slots.
Compute the register count from arg_size for all arguments to fix it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
apparmor: fix integer overflow in verify_tags() bounds check
verify_tags() validates the tagset table unpacked from a policy blob.
For each set it reads a count and checks that advancing the index by
that count stays inside sets.table[]:
u32 cnt = tags->sets.table[i];
if (i+cnt >= tags->sets.size) {
i, cnt and sets.size are all u32, so i+cnt is evaluated modulo 2^32.
sets.table[] is filled by unpack_tagsets() with aa_unpack_u32(), so
every entry is a raw unbounded 32-bit word taken from the policy blob,
and verify_tags() is the function that is supposed to validate it. A
count close to U32_MAX makes the sum wrap to a small value, the guard
passes, and the inner loop then walks sets.table[++i] past the end of
the kcalloc(size, sizeof(u32)) allocation.
Note that sets.size is bounded by 65535, because unpack_tagsets() reads
it with aa_unpack_array() as a u16, so the wrap cannot be reached by
growing the table; it is reached purely through the attacker-supplied
count.
With sets.size = 2 and sets.table = { 0, 0xffffffff }:
i = 0: cnt = 0, guard 0 + 0 >= 2 is false, inner loop does not run
i = 1: cnt = 0xffffffff, guard (1 + 0xffffffff) mod 2^32 == 0 >= 2 is
false, so the guard is bypassed and the inner loop reads
sets.table[2] -- one element past a two element allocation
The walk continues until an out-of-bounds value happens to be >=
hdrs.size or the access faults, so a crafted policy yields an
out-of-bounds read on the policy load path
(aa_replace_profiles -> aa_unpack -> unpack_policydb -> unpack_tags ->
verify_tags). unpack_tags() runs before the perms and DFA tables are
unpacked, so no other table needs to be well formed to reach it.
Policy load is gated by aa_may_manage_policy(), which checks
CAP_MAC_ADMIN relative to the subject's own user namespace rather than
the init user namespace, so with the default
unprivileged_userns_apparmor_policy=1 the path is reachable from an
unprivileged task in a matched-level nested namespace, not only by a
globally privileged one.
Perform the addition in u64 so that it cannot wrap, restoring the
intended i + cnt < sets.size guarantee. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: MSFT: validate evt_prefix_len against the response length
read_supported_features() only checks that the response covers the fixed
part of struct msft_rp_read_supported_features, which is 11 bytes:
if (skb->len < sizeof(*rp)) {
bt_dev_err(hdev, "MSFT supported features length mismatch");
goto failed;
}
evt_prefix[] is a flexible array member and rp->evt_prefix_len is an
unvalidated u8 taken straight out of that response, so
msft->evt_prefix = kmemdup(rp->evt_prefix, rp->evt_prefix_len,
GFP_KERNEL);
copies up to 255 bytes from a reply that may have carried none of them.
What is copied is data the controller never sent, and it is then used to
match incoming vendor events in msft_vendor_evt().
This is not an out-of-bounds access. An skb data allocation always has
at least SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)) bytes past the
payload, which is more than the 255 byte maximum, so the read stays
inside the allocation and KASAN does not report it. It is still a read
of bytes the host was never given, with the length fully controlled by
the controller.
Reject a response that is too short for the prefix it declares.
Verified with an emulated controller over /dev/vhci on a KASAN kernel,
with vhci made to advertise an MSFT opcode the way btintel, btqca, btmtk
and btrtl do unconditionally. A reply of exactly 11 bytes declaring
evt_prefix_len = 255 reaches kmemdup and copies 255 bytes
("skb->len=11 evt_prefix_len=255", with the copied buffer dumped); since
the reply ends at the fixed part, all 255 come from past the end of the
response. No KASAN report is produced, as expected from the allocation
slack described above. With this patch the response is rejected with
"MSFT event prefix length mismatch" and msft->evt_prefix is left unset. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: validate ipc response length before dereferencing its fields
ipc_validate_msg() computes the expected message size by reading length
fields out of the response buffer supplied by the userspace ksmbd daemon
(payload_sz, session_key_len, ngroups, ...). Those fields are read before
the buffer is verified to be large enough to contain the struct they belong
to, so a short response makes the read land past the end of the allocation.
handle_response() sizes entry->response purely from the netlink attribute
length (nla_len()) and only guards the leading handle read, so the daemon
can install a response as small as the kmalloc-8 object seen below. When
ipc_msg_send_request() then calls ipc_validate_msg() for a
KSMBD_EVENT_RPC_REQUEST, the cast to struct ksmbd_rpc_command reads
resp->payload_sz at offset 8 of an 8-byte allocation:

| Imager versions before 1.036 for Perl exit the process reading a TGA with a colour map length of 32768 or more in tga_palette_read.
The reader unpacks the two-byte colour map length into a signed short, so a length of 32768 or more becomes negative. tga_palette_read() casts that value to size_t and asks mymalloc() for a size near SIZE_MAX. The allocation fails and Imager's allocator calls exit(3).
Reading an attacker-supplied file through Imager->read() triggers an uncatchable exit. |
| ArcadeDB (Maven artifact com.arcadedb:arcadedb-engine) through 26.8.1 contains an incomplete deny-list in the polyglot script sandbox: com.arcadedb.query.polyglot.HostClassLookupFilter.DENIED lists java.util.ResourceBundle as a bare class name, which is matched by exact equality and therefore does not cover its subclasses, while ScriptTriggerExecutor.ALLOWED_PACKAGES permits java.util.*. A user with the UPDATE_SCHEMA privilege (sufficient to create or alter a JavaScript trigger; no server-admin rights required) can reference java.util.PropertyResourceBundle or java.util.ListResourceBundle and invoke the inherited static ResourceBundle.getBundle(String) to read .properties resources from the application classpath, which the sandbox (IOAccess.NONE, with java.io.**, java.nio.** and java.net.** denied) is intended to make unreachable. This can disclose packaged application configuration such as database credentials and API keys; the advisory states the issue does not provide arbitrary host filesystem read or remote code execution. Fixed in 26.9.1. |
| Imager versions before 1.036 for Perl disclose uninitialised heap memory reading a paletted image with pixel indexes past its colour map in i_gpix_p and i_glin_p.
The palette is allocated uninitialised, and only the entries a reader adds count as populated. The TGA reader stores pixel indexes without checking them against the colour map. i_gpix_p() rejects only an index greater than the count, so an index equal to it reads the first unpopulated entry, and getpixel() returns it.
i_glin_p() skips any index at or beyond the count without writing that pixel to the caller's buffer. The palette-to-RGB conversion reads each row through an uninitialised buffer, so those pixels of the converted image hold prior heap contents.
Reading an attacker-supplied image through Imager->read() and then fetching its pixels or converting it to RGB discloses process heap memory. |
