Vulnerabilities

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> ipv6: reject malicious packets in ipv6_gso_segment()<br /> <br /> syzbot was able to craft a packet with very long IPv6 extension headers<br /> leading to an overflow of skb-&gt;transport_header.<br /> <br /> This 16bit field has a limited range.<br /> <br /> Add skb_reset_transport_header_careful() helper and use it<br /> from ipv6_gso_segment()<br /> <br /> WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5871 at ./include/linux/skbuff.h:3032 skb_reset_transport_header include/linux/skbuff.h:3032 [inline]<br /> WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 5871 at ./include/linux/skbuff.h:3032 ipv6_gso_segment+0x15e2/0x21e0 net/ipv6/ip6_offload.c:151<br /> Modules linked in:<br /> CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 5871 Comm: syz-executor211 Not tainted 6.16.0-rc6-syzkaller-g7abc678e3084 #0 PREEMPT(full)<br /> Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 07/12/2025<br /> RIP: 0010:skb_reset_transport_header include/linux/skbuff.h:3032 [inline]<br /> RIP: 0010:ipv6_gso_segment+0x15e2/0x21e0 net/ipv6/ip6_offload.c:151<br /> Call Trace:<br /> <br /> skb_mac_gso_segment+0x31c/0x640 net/core/gso.c:53<br /> nsh_gso_segment+0x54a/0xe10 net/nsh/nsh.c:110<br /> skb_mac_gso_segment+0x31c/0x640 net/core/gso.c:53<br /> __skb_gso_segment+0x342/0x510 net/core/gso.c:124<br /> skb_gso_segment include/net/gso.h:83 [inline]<br /> validate_xmit_skb+0x857/0x11b0 net/core/dev.c:3950<br /> validate_xmit_skb_list+0x84/0x120 net/core/dev.c:4000<br /> sch_direct_xmit+0xd3/0x4b0 net/sched/sch_generic.c:329<br /> __dev_xmit_skb net/core/dev.c:4102 [inline]<br /> __dev_queue_xmit+0x17b6/0x3a70 net/core/dev.c:4679

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> powerpc/eeh: Make EEH driver device hotplug safe<br /> <br /> Multiple race conditions existed between the PCIe hotplug driver and the<br /> EEH driver, leading to a variety of kernel oopses of the same general<br /> nature:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> A second class of oops is also seen when the underlying bus disappears<br /> during device recovery.<br /> <br /> Refactor the EEH module to be PCI rescan and remove safe. Also clean<br /> up a few minor formatting / readability issues.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> spi: cs42l43: Property entry should be a null-terminated array<br /> <br /> The software node does not specify a count of property entries, so the<br /> array must be null-terminated.<br /> <br /> When unterminated, this can lead to a fault in the downstream cs35l56<br /> amplifier driver, because the node parse walks off the end of the<br /> array into unknown memory.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> perf/core: Exit early on perf_mmap() fail<br /> <br /> When perf_mmap() fails to allocate a buffer, it still invokes the<br /> event_mapped() callback of the related event. On X86 this might increase<br /> the perf_rdpmc_allowed reference counter. But nothing undoes this as<br /> perf_mmap_close() is never called in this case, which causes another<br /> reference count leak.<br /> <br /> Return early on failure to prevent that.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> benet: fix BUG when creating VFs<br /> <br /> benet crashes as soon as SRIOV VFs are created:<br /> <br /> kernel BUG at mm/vmalloc.c:3457!<br /> Oops: invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI<br /> CPU: 4 UID: 0 PID: 7408 Comm: test.sh Kdump: loaded Not tainted 6.16.0+ #1 PREEMPT(voluntary)<br /> [...]<br /> RIP: 0010:vunmap+0x5f/0x70<br /> [...]<br /> Call Trace:<br /> <br /> __iommu_dma_free+0xe8/0x1c0<br /> be_cmd_set_mac_list+0x3fe/0x640 [be2net]<br /> be_cmd_set_mac+0xaf/0x110 [be2net]<br /> be_vf_eth_addr_config+0x19f/0x330 [be2net]<br /> be_vf_setup+0x4f7/0x990 [be2net]<br /> be_pci_sriov_configure+0x3a1/0x470 [be2net]<br /> sriov_numvfs_store+0x20b/0x380<br /> kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x354/0x530<br /> vfs_write+0x9b9/0xf60<br /> ksys_write+0xf3/0x1d0<br /> do_syscall_64+0x8c/0x3d0<br /> <br /> be_cmd_set_mac_list() calls dma_free_coherent() under a spin_lock_bh.<br /> Fix it by freeing only after the lock has been released.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> sunrpc: fix handling of server side tls alerts<br /> <br /> Scott Mayhew discovered a security exploit in NFS over TLS in<br /> tls_alert_recv() due to its assumption it can read data from<br /> the msg iterator&amp;#39;s kvec..<br /> <br /> kTLS implementation splits TLS non-data record payload between<br /> the control message buffer (which includes the type such as TLS<br /> aler or TLS cipher change) and the rest of the payload (say TLS<br /> alert&amp;#39;s level/description) which goes into the msg payload buffer.<br /> <br /> This patch proposes to rework how control messages are setup and<br /> used by sock_recvmsg().<br /> <br /> If no control message structure is setup, kTLS layer will read and<br /> process TLS data record types. As soon as it encounters a TLS control<br /> message, it would return an error. At that point, NFS can setup a<br /> kvec backed msg buffer and read in the control message such as a<br /> TLS alert. Msg iterator can advance the kvec pointer as a part of<br /> the copy process thus we need to revert the iterator before calling<br /> into the tls_alert_recv.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> nfsd: avoid ref leak in nfsd_open_local_fh()<br /> <br /> If two calls to nfsd_open_local_fh() race and both successfully call<br /> nfsd_file_acquire_local(), they will both get an extra reference to the<br /> net to accompany the file reference stored in *pnf.<br /> <br /> One of them will fail to store (using xchg()) the file reference in<br /> *pnf and will drop that reference but WON&amp;#39;T drop the accompanying<br /> reference to the net. This leak means that when the nfs server is shut<br /> down it will hang in nfsd_shutdown_net() waiting for<br /> &amp;nn-&gt;nfsd_net_free_done.<br /> <br /> This patch adds the missing nfsd_net_put().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> net/sched: mqprio: fix stack out-of-bounds write in tc entry parsing<br /> <br /> TCA_MQPRIO_TC_ENTRY_INDEX is validated using<br /> NLA_POLICY_MAX(NLA_U32, TC_QOPT_MAX_QUEUE), which allows the value<br /> TC_QOPT_MAX_QUEUE (16). This leads to a 4-byte out-of-bounds stack<br /> write in the fp[] array, which only has room for 16 elements (0–15).<br /> <br /> Fix this by changing the policy to allow only up to TC_QOPT_MAX_QUEUE - 1.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> eth: fbnic: unlink NAPIs from queues on error to open<br /> <br /> CI hit a UaF in fbnic in the AF_XDP portion of the queues.py test.<br /> The UaF is in the __sk_mark_napi_id_once() call in xsk_bind(),<br /> NAPI has been freed. Looks like the device failed to open earlier,<br /> and we lack clearing the NAPI pointer from the queue.
