| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: buffer: Fix DMA fence leak in iio_buffer_enqueue_dmabuf()
iio_buffer_enqueue_dmabuf() allocates a struct iio_dma_fence (104 bytes,
kmalloc-128) via kmalloc_obj()+dma_fence_init(), which sets the initial
kref to 1. It then calls dma_resv_add_fence() which takes a second
reference (kref=2), and stores a raw pointer in block->fence.
On the success path the function returns without calling dma_fence_put()
to release the initial reference, so every buffer enqueue permanently
leaks one kmalloc-128 allocation.
The iio_buffer_cleanup() work item only releases the temporary reference
taken during completion signalling by iio_buffer_signal_dmabuf_done();
the initial reference from dma_fence_init() is never released.
With four iio_rwdev instances at 240kHz and 512 samples per buffer,
this produces ~1875 kmalloc-128 allocations per second matching the
observed slab growth exactly. A test with ftrace confirmed that the
dma_fence_destroy event was never triggered.
Fix by calling dma_fence_put() after dma_resv_add_fence(), transferring
ownership of the fence to the DMA reservation object. The DMA fence then
gets properly discarded after being signalled. |
| The Redis protocol implementation in Apache bRPC allowed inline command parsing to allocate and copy the full connection buffer before a complete CRLF-terminated command was available. A remote attacker with access to a Redis-protocol bRPC service could send long inline inputs without a terminating CRLF to increase memory usage and CPU copy overhead, potentially causing denial of service.
Root Cause:
The Redis inline command parser allocated memory based on the current input buffer size and copied the entire buffer before determining the current inline command boundary. The existing redis_max_allocation_size limit was applied to RESP bulk strings and arrays, but not effectively to the inline command path before allocation.
Affected Scenarios:
Use Apache bRPC server with Redis protocol enabled and reachable by untrusted clients.
How to Fix:
1. Upgrade Apache bRPC to version 1.18.0, which fixes this issue.
2. Apply the patch from PR https://github.com/apache/brpc/pull/3363 .
Note:
The fix applies redis_max_allocation_size to Redis inline command lines and scans for CRLF before allocating parser arena memory. Inline command lines exceeding this limit are rejected. |
| The RTMP AMF parser in Apache bRPC accepts AMF string lengths and array counts directly from untrusted input. A remote unauthenticated attacker who can reach a bRPC server with RTMP enabled can send a small AMF payload with an excessive declared long string length or array count, causing excessive memory allocation or resource consumption before the parser rejects the incomplete payload.
Root Cause:
The AMF long string parser resized the destination string to the declared 32-bit length before validating that the stream contained that many bytes. ECMA array and strict array parsers also accepted 32-bit element counts without a configurable upper bound.
Affected Scenarios:
Deployments that enable the bRPC RTMP server component and accept RTMP traffic from untrusted clients. Direct uses of the AMF parser on untrusted data are also affected.
How to Fix:
1. Upgrade bRPC to version 1.18.0, which fixes this issue.
2. Apply this patch: https://github.com/apache/brpc/pull/3353
Note:
The fix introduces configurable AMF parsing limits. The default maximum string size is 64 MiB and the default maximum array element count is 1,048,576. Payloads above these limits are rejected. The limits can be adjusted with amf_max_string_size and amf_max_array_size. |
| Apache Kafka's code-generated readers for flexible protocol versions read a tagged-field count declared by the sender and retain a RawTaggedField object for each unknown field. That count was bounded only by the outer request frame size (socket.request.max.bytes); it was not checked against the remaining buffer bytes or capped. Because each entry can be encoded in as little as two bytes (unknown tag 0, size 0), a modest request can declare tens of millions of tagged fields and force one object allocation per declared field. Flexible request headers (header version 2, used by flexible APIs such as ApiVersions v3) are parsed this way, so the amplification applies to the request header itself.
Impact:
The flexible request header is parsed on the network thread before authorization, request dispatch, and request-time quota accounting. A client can send a request of a few tens of megabytes whose header declares about 20 million tagged fields, forcing roughly that many RawTaggedField allocations and exhausting broker heap or inducing process-wide GC stalls, denying broker service. Because the header is parsed for pre-authentication APIs such as ApiVersions (v3), the allocation can occur before authentication; no Kafka resource ACL or quota is required.
Mitigation:
Upgrade to Apache Kafka 4.2.2, 4.3.2, or 4.4.0. Until then, lowering socket.request.max.bytes and restricting network access to broker listeners reduces, but does not remove, exposure.
Resolution:
From Apache Kafka 4.2.2, 4.3.2, and 4.4.0: generated readers bounds-check the tagged-field count for flexible-versioned messages, rejecting a negative count, a count exceeding the remaining buffer bytes, or a count exceeding a fixed maximum (10,000), before any per-field allocation. |
| IBM Langflow OSS 1.0.0 through 1.12.4 could allow a remote authenticated attacker to cause a denial of service due to allocation of resources without limits or throttling. |
| Crypt::Age versions before 0.004 for Perl allow CPU exhaustion via an unbounded number of recipient stanzas, each costing an X25519 scalar multiplication in unwrap_file_key.
The header parser accepts any number of recipient stanzas, and unwrap_file_key tries every identity against every X25519 stanza. Each attempt runs a scalar multiplication, an HKDF and a ChaCha20-Poly1305 open. The header MAC cannot be checked first, because its key comes from the file key, which only a successful unwrap produces.
Each stanza is 98 bytes of attacker-chosen header and buys one scalar multiplication per identity held, and the file is rejected only after every one of them has run. A caller reaches this through decrypt, decrypt_file or decrypt_filehandle whenever it decrypts a file it did not write. |
| DBI versions before 1.656 for Perl hang on a later open of a DBD::DBM table because a failed open_data does not release the table's lock.
open_data creates the table's lock file and takes an exclusive flock on it for a CREATE, before the checks that can croak: a dbm_mldbm value that is not a module name, a failing tie, or a missing data file. The croak unwinds before the table object is blessed, so nothing releases the lock, and the meta data holding the open descriptor stays cached on the database handle.
The dbm_mldbm and dbm_type values come from the DSN or the connect attributes, so a caller that chooses the serializer or the storage backend can trigger the failure.
The flock has no timeout, so a later open of that table (even through a separate database handle) blocks for as long as the handle holding the stale lock lives, in the same process or any other. |

gpiolib: fix memory leak in gpiod_set_array_value_complex() on error paths
A drive-by review by Sashiko reports that, after a failed call to
gpiochip_set_multiple(), gpiod_set_array_value() returns abruptly,
bypassing the freeing of possibly alloced bitmaps, potentially leaking
memory. It is an unlikely error path, but is possible.
Defer the return code check until after the bitmap_free() block. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: free the userptr ranges when a CS fails after parser_bos
amdgpu_cs_parser_bos() allocates an HMM range for every userptr entry of
the BO list and looks up the user pages. Those ranges are only freed when
amdgpu_cs_parser_bos() itself fails or when amdgpu_cs_submit() checks
them under the notifier lock. If amdgpu_cs_patch_jobs(),
amdgpu_cs_vm_handling(), amdgpu_cs_sync_rings() or the early part of
amdgpu_cs_submit() fails, nothing frees them: neither
amdgpu_cs_parser_fini() nor amdgpu_bo_list_free() touch e->range.
Each such CS then leaks the range, its hmm_pfns array (8 bytes per page
of the userptr BO) and the BO reference the range holds. An IB on a ring
that patches the CS in place (e.g. VCN) with an unmapped va_start fails
in amdgpu_cs_patch_ibs() and takes this path.
Free the ranges on those error paths. Ranges amdgpu_cs_submit() already
dropped are NULL, so freeing them again is a no-op.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs: Free any excess xarray nodes in clear_inode()
For many years we've had a hard to hit leak of xarray nodes. Hugh
documented it well in commit 786b31121a2c. Recently people and
syzbot have found ways to force it to happen with madvise. Rather
than fix the leaks where they happen, just call xa_destroy() which
has the side-effect of cycling the i_pages lock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xen/netfront: don't leak the skb when xennet_fill_frags() fails
When a response chain has more slots than fit in the skb's frags,
xennet_fill_frags() returns an error and xennet_poll() jumps to its
error path. That path moves what's left on tmpq to errq to be freed,
but the skb being filled was already dequeued from tmpq, so it's never
freed. Each chain that overflows leaks the skb and the pages attached
to it as frags, and the backend decides how many slots it sends.
Put the skb back on tmpq before taking the error path, like the
xennet_set_skb_gso() failure just above it does. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: avoid recursive multicast port cleanup
br_multicast_sg_del_exclude_ports() removes automatically added STAR_EXCL
port groups by calling br_multicast_del_pg(). For S,G entries, that
deletion calls back into br_multicast_sg_del_exclude_ports(), so a large
number of STAR_EXCL ports consumes one kernel stack frame per port and can
hit the stack guard page.
Keep the complete port-group deletion path for cleanup, but suppress the
S,G exclude-port cleanup while that helper is already walking the same
entry. Normal deletion callers retain the existing behavior. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: RFCOMM: free the skb when the DLC has no owner
rfcomm_recv_data() hands the skb to d->data_ready() and returns 0
without freeing it, so the callback owns the skb from that point on.
The tty implementation frees it when the DLC has been detached from its
device:
static void rfcomm_dev_data_ready(struct rfcomm_dlc *dlc,
struct sk_buff *skb)
{
struct rfcomm_dev *dev = dlc->owner;
if (!dev) {
kfree_skb(skb);
return;
}
The socket implementation returns without freeing it, and the skb is
leaked.
A connected DLC can have no owner: rfcomm_sock_destruct() clears
d->owner, while the DLC itself stays on the session until it is closed.
Data frames that arrive in that window still find d->state ==
BT_CONNECTED in rfcomm_recv_data() and are handed to the callback, one
leaked skb each.
The leak does not stop on its own either. The remote runs out of
credits only once RFCOMM_RX_THROTTLED is set, and for a socket the only
place that sets it is rfcomm_sk_data_ready() itself, below the return.
rfcomm_process_dlcs() keeps granting credits, so the remote keeps
sending and the leak keeps growing.
Free the skb, as the tty side does. |

drm/vc4: Free the BO cache size list on teardown
vc4_bo_cache_destroy() purges the cached BOs but never frees the size
list, leaking it on every unbind. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: steam: Refactor registration
This refactors and simplifies the registration/unregistration flow. Since
we now only perform registration when the client isn't opened anymore, the
logic for handling that can be removed, and the rest of the function
streamlined.
We also remove the previous assumption that we have a serial number to show
we're registered, replacing it with a single purpose boolean.
In a previous refactor the code for unregistering a battery if later
registration steps failed was accidentally left out. As a result, a
lingering power_supply object could get left over after the steam object
was torn down. This is also fixed here. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvs: bound LBLCR and LBLC cache growth
ip_vs_lblcr_new() and ip_vs_lblc_new() create cache entries for
every previously unseen destination address. The table max_size only
tells the periodic collector to reclaim entries after the cache has
already exceeded the limit. It does not reclaim entries that the
attacker continues to use.
Reject new cache entries once either table reaches max_size * 3 / 2.
The extra headroom lets the periodic collector catch up while the
existing scheduler fallback continues to use the selected destination
when cache creation fails. New traffic therefore stays serviceable
without growing the tables further. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: gso: limit recursive IP-in-IP segmentation
IP-in-IP GSO can re-enter inet_gso_segment() or ipv6_gso_segment()
for each nested IP header. encap_level tracks header bytes, not callback
depth, so a deep chain can exhaust the kernel stack. Making
inet_gso_segment() stackable introduced unbounded IPv4 nesting; IPIP
GSO/TSO later made the path reachable. The IPv6 stackable path was
introduced separately and uses the same guard.
Count IPv4 and IPv6 GSO handler entries in skb_gso_cb, initialized once
per top-level GSO operation and preserved across GRE/UDP context changes.
Use the existing IP_TUNNEL_RECURSION_LIMIT for both handlers. The first
five entries pass, and the sixth returns -EINVAL before dispatching
another GSO callback. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
of/overlay: don't leak fragment references when changeset init fails
init_overlay_changeset() stores the number of initialized fragments
in ovcs->count only on full success. When find_target() or the
__symbols__ lookup fails partway through, the target and overlay
references taken for the fragments initialized so far are never
dropped: free_overlay_changeset() bounds its cleanup loop by
ovcs->count, which is still 0.
Store the running count on the error path so free_overlay_changeset()
puts whatever was set up. The store is guarded by ovcs->fragments
because on the allocation-failure path cnt still holds the counting
pass total while there is no fragments array; everywhere else cnt
only counts fully-initialized fragments. |

net/sched: cls_api: reclaim an empty proto on the error path
Two racing tc filter add requests on the same chain/prio of an
unlocked classifier both run change() on the shared proto and both
can fail: the winner's tcf_chain_tp_delete_empty() attempt gives up
because the loser's handle is still in the idr, and the loser's
error path drops only its own reference without a second reclamation
attempt. The empty proto stays linked in the chain, holding the
chain reference, a block reference and the classifier module
reference until the chain or block is torn down.
Reclaim the proto on the error path of any failed request that holds
a proto reference. The reclamation is emptiness-gated:
tcf_chain_tp_delete_empty() unlinks the proto only when
delete_empty() admits it is empty, so a live shared proto is never
unlinked. A proto the request created is reclaimed unconditionally -
it is the only owner, so marking it for deletion is safe even without
a delete_empty callback. Classifiers without one (the check marks the
proto unconditionally) are rtnl-serialized, so the raced window this
guard closes cannot arise for them.
This is a follow-up to commit d4e359b3608a ("net/sched: cls_api: fix
teardown of an adopted proto on insert-race loss"), which stopped the
loser of the insert race from unlinking the winner's live proto but
left the empty-proto residual in place.
Conditions to recreate:
- CONFIG_NET_CLS_FLOWER=y; veth pair
- tc qdisc add dev veth0 ingress
- two concurrent `tc filter add dev veth0 ingress protocol ip pref 1
flower skip_sw ... action drop` (both fail in fl_hw_replace_filter
after publishing their handle in the idr); repeat in a loop
- an empty flower tp stays linked after both requests fail; visible
as a bare `filter protocol ip pref 1 flower chain 0` header in
`tc filter show` with no filter entries
- CAP_NET_ADMIN (namespace-local via unshare -Urn suffices) |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_sync: don't drain cmd_sync backlog on unregister
hci_unregister_dev() disables cmd_work and cmd_timer, then calls
hci_cmd_sync_clear(), whose cancel_work_sync() waits for
hci_cmd_sync_work() to return. That worker dequeues and runs every
entry on cmd_sync_work_list. With cmd_work disabled nothing reaches
the controller, so each queued HCI command waits the full
HCI_CMD_TIMEOUT (2s).
The backlog has no bound. Userspace can keep queuing MGMT commands
such as MGMT_OP_GET_CLOCK_INFO against a controller that doesn't
answer. Closing /dev/vhci then blocks in vhci_release() for
backlog * 2s:
INFO: task syz-executor:5749 blocked for more than 143 seconds.
cancel_work_sync
hci_cmd_sync_clear
hci_unregister_dev
vhci_release
In a local reproduction the backlog held more than 5000 entries,
which comes to hours of hang.
Stop the worker from taking new entries once HCI_UNREGISTER is set,
and wake any request still waiting with -ENODEV before cancelling
the work. The entries left over are destroyed with -ECANCELED by the
existing sweep in hci_cmd_sync_clear(). They stay on the list until
the work has stopped, so hci_cmd_sync_dequeue() and friends still see
them. A callback already running may still issue another command,
which delays unregister by at most one timeout per remaining command,
not by the whole backlog. |
