    CVE-2026-74518

    Last Modified: 16 Oct 2026

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/hugetlb: fix list corruption in allocate_file_region_entries() allocate_file_region_entries() tops up resv->region_cache with freshly allocated file_region descriptors. The allocation uses GFP_KERNEL, so resv->lock is dropped around it: the new entries are gathered on a stack-local list head, allocated_regions, and spliced into resv->region_cache once the lock is re-acquired. The splice used list_splice(), which moves the entries but does not re-initialize the source head, so allocated_regions is left pointing at an entry that now lives on resv->region_cache. The top-up runs in a while loop that re-checks the cache deficit after re-acquiring the lock. For a shared mapping the resv_map is shared by every mapper of the hugetlbfs inode, so a concurrent region_chg()/region_add()/region_del() on the same resv_map can consume cache entries during the unlocked window and force a second iteration. That iteration calls list_add() on the stale head and corrupts the list; with CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST the __list_add_valid() check trips: list_add corruption. next->prev should be prev (ffffc900011ff7f8), but was ffff88814c281460. (next=ffff88814c545640). kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:31! allocate_file_region_entries+0x191/0x420 region_chg+0x267/0x300 hugetlb_reserve_pages+0x387/0xc80 hugetlbfs_file_mmap+0x2ce/0x3f0 mmap_region+0x1348/0x1a80 do_mmap+0x85e/0xb90 vm_mmap_pgoff+0x18c/0x330 ksys_mmap_pgoff+0x2a1/0x3e0 do_syscall_64+0xd7/0x420 Without CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST the bad list_add() silently links a kernel-stack address into resv->region_cache, leading to later use-after-free. This was observed as a real host panic on a dense KVM host where a QEMU guest-RAM hugetlbfs file was mapped MAP_SHARED by both QEMU and a separate SPDK/DPDK vhost-user target, generating concurrent region_* traffic on one shared resv_map. Use list_splice_init() so the source head is re-initialized empty after each splice, making the retry loop safe.

    CVE-2026-74514

    Last Modified: 23 Aug 2026

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: s390: pci: Fix memory accounting for pinned/unpinned pages The account_mem() and unaccount_mem() functions call get_uid() which increments the reference count of struct user_struct on every invocation. But we don't decrement the count by calling free_uid(). It also accounted/unaccounted the pages against the current->mm. But its possible the unaccount_mem() can be called from a different process context than the one that originally pinned the pages. Let's fix this by storing the pinning process user_struct and mm_struct when accounting for pinned pages, and subsequently free these resources when the pages are unpinned.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe/pt: Fix NULL pointer dereference in xe_pt_zap_ptes_entry() The page-table walk framework may pass a NULL *child pointer for unpopulated entries. xe_pt_zap_ptes_entry() called container_of(*child) before checking for NULL, then dereferenced the result, causing a crash. Move the container_of() call after a NULL guard, so the function returns early instead of proceeding with an invalid pointer. XE_WARN_ON is kept to help root cause the issue, but we now bail instead of crashing the driver. v2: Comment that triggering XE_WARN_ON is unexpected behavior (Matt Brost) (cherry picked from commit b9297d19d9df5d4b6c994648570c5dcd1cac68ff)

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: dsa: sja1105: round up PTP perout pin duration pin_duration is converted from the user-provided period to SJA1105 clock ticks and is later passed as the cycle_time argument to future_base_time(). Very small period values may become zero after the conversion, which can lead to a division by zero in future_base_time(). Round zero pin_duration up to 1 tick so that the smallest unsupported periods use the minimum non-zero hardware duration instead of passing zero to future_base_time().

    CVE-2026-72429

    Last Modified: 17 Aug 2026

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv6: ioam: fix type confusion of dst_entry IOAM uses a dummy dst_entry(null_dst) to mark that the destination should not be changed after the transformation. This dst is stored in the IOAM lwt state and may be passed to dst_cache_set_ip6(). However, the IPv6 dst cache path eventually calls rt6_get_cookie(), which treats the dst_entry as part of a struct rt6_info. Since the null_dst was embedded directly as a struct dst_entry in struct ioam6_lwt, this resulted in an invalid cast and rt6_get_cookie() reading fields from the wrong object. In practice, the wrong cookie is not used while dst->obsolete is zero, but rt6_get_cookie() may also access per-cpu value when rt->sernum is zero. In this case, rt->sernum aliases ioam6_lwt::cache::reset_ts, which can become zero, making this a potential invalid pointer access. Fix this by embedding a full struct rt6_info for the dummy IPv6 route and passing its dst member to the dst APIs.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: wwan: t7xx: check skb_clone in control TX t7xx_port_ctrl_tx() clones each skb fragment before passing it to the port transmit path. The clone is used immediately to set cloned->len, so an skb_clone() failure results in a NULL pointer dereference. Check the clone before using it. If previous fragments were already queued, preserve the driver's existing partial-write behavior by returning the number of bytes submitted so far.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: mana: initialize gdma queue id to INVALID_QUEUE_ID mana_gd_create_mana_wq_cq() leaves queue->id as 0 (from kzalloc_obj()) until mana_create_wq_obj() assigns the firmware-returned id. If creation fails before that, cleanup calls mana_gd_destroy_cq() with id 0, NULLing gc->cq_table[0] and silently breaking whichever real CQ owns that slot. Initialize queue->id to INVALID_QUEUE_ID right after allocation, matching mana_gd_create_eq(). The existing (id >= max_num_cqs) guard then short-circuits cleanly.

    CVE-2026-74360

    Last Modified: 22 Aug 2026

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Reject exclusive maps for bpf_map_elem iterators Exclusive maps (aka excl_prog_hash) are meant to be reachable only from the single program whose hash matches. This is enforced by check_map_prog_compatibility() when the map is referenced from a program such as signed BPF loaders. A bpf_map_elem iterator, however, binds its target map at attach time in bpf_iter_attach_map() instead of referencing it from the program, so the exclusivity check is never reached. On top of that, the iterator exposes the map value as a writable buffer.

    CVE-2026-74512

    Last Modified: 16 Oct 2026

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: audit: fix potential use-after-free in audit_del_rule() `audit_del_rule()` destroys `e->rule.exe` via `audit_remove_mark_rule()` before unlinking the rule from RCU-visible filter lists and waiting for a grace period. Concurrent readers in `audit_filter()` and `audit_filter_rules()` still dereference `e->rule.exe`, while the fsnotify mark can be freed on an independent lifetime path. This creates a use-after-free window during rule deletion. Fix this by unlinking the rule from the RCU-visible lists and invoking `synchronize_rcu()` before calling `audit_remove_mark_rule()` (and other rule removal helpers). This ensures that all existing RCU readers have exited the critical section before any underlying resources are destroyed.

    CVE-2026-74498

    Last Modified: 6 Nov 2026

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: usb-audio: Fix DMA buffer out-of-bounds write when fill_max is set When a USB audio endpoint requests full packet transfers via the fill_max descriptor flag, data_ep_set_params() promotes ep->curpacksize to ep->maxpacksize. However, maxsize is left at the original sample-rate derived value. Since u->buffer_size is allocated as maxsize * packets, the resulting DMA buffer is far too small for the requested transfer length. When the USB host controller streams up to curpacksize bytes per packet, it writes past the end of the buffer via DMA, corrupting kernel heap memory. Update maxsize to curpacksize when fill_max is set so that the allocated DMA buffer size matches the actual transfer request size. [ changed to reassign maxsize only when ep->fill_max is set -- tiwai ]

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: ISO: fix leaking sk after socket release iso_sock_kill() tests !sock_flag(sk, SOCK_ZAPPED) || sk->sk_socket || sock_flag(sk, SOCK_DEAD) for early return, but this is always true since sock_orphan(sk) sets SOCK_DEAD, so the sk reference released by socket always leaks, iso_sock_destruct is never called. The socket reference also leaks when __iso_sock_close() does not set SOCK_ZAPPED, since iso_conn_del() does not call iso_sock_kill() after zapping. Fix by replacing SOCK_DEAD by BT_SK_KILLED flag that is not used for something else, and lock_sock to ensure iso_sock_kill() puts sk only after socket release only once. Release and iso_conn_del may run concurrently. Call iso_sock_kill() from iso_conn_del() to clean sk up after zapping. Remove call to iso_sock_kill() from iso_sock_close(), as it's generally no-op there.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: widen NAT rewrite delta to s32 in sip_help_tcp() sip_help_tcp() stores the size change of each NAT-rewritten SIP message in s16 diff and accumulates it in s16 tdiff, but a single message can grow by more than S16_MAX while the packet stays under the 65535 enlarge_skb() limit: nf_nat_sip() rewrites every matching URI, and a long Contact list expands the message by tens of kilobytes. diff then wraps, and "datalen = datalen + diff - msglen" yields a huge unsigned datalen, so the next iteration's ct_sip_get_header() reads past the linearized skb tail. Widen diff, tdiff and the seq_adjust hook to s32. Both are bounded by the 65535 byte packet limit, and the seqadj core is already s32 (nf_ct_seqadj_set() takes s32), so no previously accepted input is rejected.

    Last Modified: 6 Nov 2026

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hwmon: (adt7470) Fix busy-loop and I2C flooding in update thread When userspace configures 'auto_update_interval' to 0 via sysfs, the background kthread executes schedule_timeout_interruptible(0), which returns immediately. If 'num_temp_sensors' is concurrently or previously set to 0, the msleep_interruptible() delay inside adt7470_read_temperatures() also becomes 0. This combination forces the background thread into a tight, unbounded busy-loop, hogging the CPU and flooding the I2C bus with a continuous stream of transactions. Fix this vulnerability by raising the lower limit of the clamp_val in auto_update_interval_store() from 0 to 500 milliseconds. This guarantees a reasonable minimum sleep window between sensor updates, protecting the system from intentional or accidental I2C bus denial of service.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: sch_codel: Do not call qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog during peek before restoring qlen Whenever codel drops packets during peek, it calls qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog. An issue arises because it calls qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog before it reincrements the qlen.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/monwriter: Reject buffer reuse with different data length When data buffers are reused, e.g. for interval sample records, the first record determines the data length, and the size of the buffer for user copy. Current monwriter code does not check if the data length was changed for subsequent records, which also would never happen for valid user programs. However, a malicious user could change the data length, resulting in out of bounds user copy to the kernel buffer, and memory corruption. By default, the monwriter misc device is created with root-only permissions, so practical impact is typically low. Fix this by checking for changed data length and rejecting such records.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/ntfs3: resize log->one_page_buf when adopting on-disk page size log_replay() allocates log->one_page_buf using the page size that was chosen from the host PAGE_SIZE: log->one_page_buf = kmalloc(log->page_size, GFP_NOFS); Later, when a restart area is found, the log page size recorded on disk is adopted: t32 = le32_to_cpu(log->rst_info.r_page->sys_page_size); if (log->page_size != t32) { log->l_size = log->orig_file_size; log->page_size = norm_file_page(t32, &log->l_size, t32 == DefaultLogPageSize); } If the on-disk page size is larger than the size used for the initial allocation, log->page_size grows but one_page_buf is left at its original, smaller size. A subsequent unaligned read_log_page() then reads log->page_size bytes into the undersized scratch buffer: page_buf = page_off ? log->one_page_buf : *buffer; err = ntfs_read_run_nb_ra(ni->mi.sbi, &ni->file.run, page_vbo, page_buf, log->page_size, NULL, &log->read_ahead); overflowing the allocation. This is reachable when mounting a dirty NTFS volume whose log was formatted with a page size larger than the buffer initially allocated on the mounting host (for example a 64K-log volume mounted on a host that allocated a 4K scratch buffer). Grow one_page_buf when the adopted on-disk page size exceeds the size used for the initial allocation. On krealloc() failure the original buffer is left intact and freed by the existing error path.

    CVE-2026-72354

    Last Modified: 22 Aug 2026

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ntfs: avoid stale runlist element dereference in MFT writeback ntfs_write_mft_block() maps each $MFT record through the $MFT data runlist. For sub-folio clusters it looks up a struct runlist_element under ni->runlist.lock, drops the lock, and later uses rl->length and rl->vcn when choosing folio_sz. That pointer is only borrowed from ni->runlist.rl. Concurrent $MFT allocation extension can merge a replacement runlist under the same lock, and ntfs_rl_realloc() can free the old backing array. If that happens between the lookup and the later folio_sz decision, writeback can dereference freed runlist storage. The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order within that path: MFT writeback path: $MFT allocation extension: 1. Look up rl under 1. Extend the $MFT data allocation. ni->runlist.lock. 2. Publish a replacement runlist. 2. Drop ni->runlist.lock. 3. Free the old runlist array. 3. Read rl->length and rl->vcn to choose folio_sz.

Commit 7ce4fc40018d ("ksmbd: fix durable reconnect double-bind race in ksmbd_reopen_durable_fd") made the fp->conn claim atomic under global_ft.lock (closing the owner.name double-free and the ksmbd_file write-UAF), but the compare-read versus reopen-free pair was left unserialized.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: ife: require ETH_HLEN to be pullable in ife_decode() ife decode may return after making only the outer IFE header and metadata pullable. The caller then passes the decapsulated packet to eth_type_trans(), which expects the inner Ethernet header to be accessible from the linear data area. With a malformed IFE frame, the inner Ethernet header may still be shorter than ETH_HLEN in the linear area, which can lead to a crash in the original code. Fix this by extending the pull check in ife_decode() so that the inner Ethernet header is also guaranteed to be pullable before returning.

    Last Modified: 22 Aug 2026

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: microchip: vcap: fix races on the shared Super VCAP block The VCAP instances on a chip are not independent, yet they are locked independently. On sparx5 and lan969x the IS0 and IS2 instances are backed by the same Super VCAP hardware block and share its cache and command registers: every access drives the shared VCAP_SUPER_CTRL register and moves data through the shared cache registers. Accessing one instance therefore races with accessing another. The per-instance admin->lock cannot prevent this, as each instance takes a different lock. The locking issue is mostly disguised by the fact that the core usage of the vcap api runs under rtnl. However, the full rule dump in debugfs decodes rules straight from hardware (a READ command followed by a cache read) and runs outside rtnl, so it races a concurrent tc-flower rule write to another Super VCAP instance. Besides corrupting the dump, the read repopulates the shared cache between the writers cache fill and its write command, so the writer commits the wrong data and corrupts the hardware entry. Introduce vcap_lock() and vcap_unlock() helpers and route every rule lock site in the VCAP API and its debugfs code through them. Replace the per-instance admin->lock with a single mutex in struct vcap_control that serializes access to all instances. The helpers reach it through a new admin->vctrl back-pointer, and the clients initialise and destroy the control lock instead of a per-instance one. No path holds more than one instance lock, so collapsing them onto a single mutex cannot self-deadlock.

Section 8.8 of the SNP spec says: Before invoking SNP_INIT_EX with INIT_RMP set to 1, software must ensure that no CPUs contain dirty cache lines for the memory containing the RMP. Cachelines can be moved from cache to cache in a dirty state. The wbinvd_on_all_cpus() before SNP_INIT_EX flushes the caches for each CPU, but if the IPIs for WBINVD race with this dirty cacheline movement, it is possible that they may not get flushed, violating the firmware requirement. Doing wbinvd_on_all_cpus() before setting SNPEn is safer since the RMP table is not yet in use. [ Heroically bisected by Srikanth. ] [ bp: Massage commit message. ]

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nf_conntrack_reasm: guard mac_header adjustment after IPv6 defrag nf_ct_frag6_reasm() slides the packet head forward to drop the IPv6 fragment header and then unconditionally advances skb->mac_header: skb->mac_header += sizeof(struct frag_hdr); On the NF_INET_LOCAL_OUT defrag path the skb has no link-layer header yet, so skb->mac_header is still the "not set" sentinel (u16)~0U. Adding sizeof(struct frag_hdr) wraps it to a small value (0xffff + 8 == 7), after which skb_mac_header_was_set() wrongly reports a MAC header is present and skb_mac_header() points into the headroom. The reassembler has done this unconditional add since it was introduced; it was harmless while mac_header was a bare pointer, but wrong once mac_header became a u16 offset whose unset state is the ~0U sentinel tested by skb_mac_header_was_set(). The sibling net/ipv6/reassembly.c does the same relocation and does guard the adjustment; mirror the guard here.

But the code assumes that at least ETH_HLEN bytes are available and thus might read outside of the available buffer.

    Last Modified: 18 Aug 2026

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ntfs: fix WARN_ON for resident attribute in ntfs_map_runlist_nolock() When ntfs_map_runlist_nolock() needs to look up the attribute extent containing a target VCN (ctx_needs_reset == true), it calls ntfs_attr_lookup() and then expects the result to be a non-resident attribute, since only non-resident attributes have a mapping pairs array to decompress. A crafted NTFS image can place a resident attribute where a non-resident one is expected, causing ntfs_attr_lookup() to succeed but return a resident attribute record. Previously this was caught only by a WARN_ON(), which does not stop execution. The code then falls through to read a->data.non_resident.highest_vcn from what is actually a resident attribute, accessing the wrong union member and corrupting the VCN range check. The caller path triggering this warning during mount is: ntfs_map_runlist_nolock ntfs_empty_logfile load_system_files ntfs_fill_super In this path ctx is NULL, so ntfs_map_runlist_nolock() allocates a temporary search context internally and sets ctx_needs_reset = true. The existing resident-attribute guard in the ctx != NULL branch already returns -EIO silently for the same condition; make the ctx_needs_reset path consistent by replacing the WARN_ON() with the same -EIO error return. This causes the crafted image to be rejected with a mount error instead of triggering a kernel warning.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: don't leak bad clone into future transaction On memory allocation failure the cloned nft_pipapo_match can enter a bad state: - some fields can have their lookup tables resized while others did not - bits might have been toggled - scratch map can be undersized which also means m->bsize_max can be lower than what is required This means that the next insertion in the same batch can trigger out-of-bounds writes. Furthermore, a failure in the first can result in the bad clone to leak into the next transaction because the abort callback is never executed in this case (the upper layer saw an error and no attempt to allocate a transactional request was made). Record a state for the nft_pipapo_match structure: - NEW (pristine clone) - MOD (modified clone with good state) - ERR (potentially bogus content) Then make it so that deletes and insertions fail when the clone entered ERR state. In case the very first insert attempt results in an error, free the clone right away.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: wwan: iosm: bound device offsets in the MUX downlink decoder mux_dl_adb_decode() walks a chain of aggregated datagram tables using offsets and lengths taken from the modem. first_table_index, next_table_index, table_length, datagram_index and datagram_length are all device supplied le values. Only first_table_index was checked, and only for being non zero. The decoder then formed adth = block + adth_index and read the table header and the datagram entries with no bound against the received skb. A modem that reports an index or a length past the downlink buffer makes the decoder read out of bounds. The buffer is IPC_MEM_MAX_DL_MUX_LITE_BUF_SIZE and skb->len is at most that, so skb->len is the real limit, but none of these in band offsets were checked against it. The table chain is also followed with no forward progress check. The loop takes the next table from adth->next_table_index and stops only when that reaches zero. A modem can stage two tables that point at each other, so the loop never ends. It runs in softirq and clones the skb on every pass. Validate every device offset and length against skb->len before use. The block header must fit. Each table header, on entry and after every next_table_index, must lie inside the skb. The datagram table must fit. Each datagram index and length must stay inside the skb. The header padding must not exceed the datagram length so the receive length does not wrap. Require each next_table_index to move forward so the chain cannot cycle. This was reproduced under KASAN as a slab out of bounds read on a normal downlink receive once the iosm net device is up.

Unlike real ISM hardware, which enforces memory region bounds natively, the software loopback has no such protection. A peer-supplied out-of-bounds offset or oversized write would result in an OOB write past the allocated kernel buffer.

    Last Modified: 30 Oct 2026

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: vhost: fix vhost_get_avail_idx for a non empty ring vhost_get_avail_idx is supposed to report whether it has updated vq->avail_idx. Instead, it returns whether all entries have been consumed, which is usually the same. But not always - in drivers/vhost/net.c and when mergeable buffers have been enabled, the driver checks whether the combined entries are big enough to store an incoming packet. If not, the driver re-enables notifications with available entries still in the ring. The incorrect return value from vhost_get_avail_idx propagates through vhost_enable_notify and causes the host to livelock if the guest is not making progress, as vhost will immediately disable notifications and retry using the available entries. This goes back to commit d3bb267bbdcb ("vhost: cache avail index in vhost_enable_notify()") which changed vhost_enable_notify() to compare the freshly read avail index against vq->last_avail_idx instead of the previously cached vq->avail_idx. Commit 7ad472397667 ("vhost: move smp_rmb() into vhost_get_avail_idx()") then carried over the same comparison when refactoring vhost_enable_notify() to call the unified vhost_get_avail_idx(). The obvious fix is to make vhost_get_avail_idx do what the comment says it does and report whether new entries have been added.

The local bind path validates the ordering (tipc_uaddr_valid()), but the name-distribution path does not. A binding with lower > upper is inserted at the far end of the service-range rbtree (keyed on lower) where no lookup or withdrawal can ever match it (service_range_foreach_match() requires sr->lower <= end). The publication, its service_range node and the augmented rbtree entry are then leaked for the lifetime of the namespace, and there is no per-peer cap equivalent to TIPC_MAX_PUBL on locally created bindings. Reject inverted ranges in the network path as well. A peer node can otherwise leak unbounded binding-table memory by sending PUBLICATION items with lower > upper.

This is correct on 32-bit (pointer = 4 bytes), but on 64-bit only the low 4 bytes of the 8-byte pointer are written into the FIFO. The reader then reads back 4 bytes into an 8-byte local pointer variable, leaving the upper 4 bytes uninitialized stack data. The first dereference of the reconstructed pointer (fifo_buffer[1]) accesses an arbitrary kernel address and generally results in an oops. Use sizeof(fifo_buffer) so the byte count matches pointer width on every architecture. The driver has no architecture restriction in Kconfig, so any 64-bit build with CONFIG_IEEE802154_CA8210_DEBUGFS=y is exposed. Issue has been latent since the driver was added in 2017 because it is most commonly deployed on 32-bit MCUs.

Mixing a lock-free cmpxchg() claim in sendmsg() with hrtimer_cancel() calls made under so->rx_lock elsewhere left windows where a frame or timer callback could act on a state that had already moved on, corrupting an unrelated transfer. so->rx_lock now covers the full lifecycle of a TX claim: sendmsg() takes it to check so->tx.state is ISOTP_IDLE, switch it to ISOTP_SENDING, bump so->tx_gen and drain the previous transfer's timers - all as one critical section. isotp_rcv_fc()/isotp_rcv_cf() already run under this lock via isotp_rcv(), and isotp_rcv_echo() now takes it itself, so none of them can ever observe a transfer mid-claim. This also means a transfer can no longer be handed to sendmsg()'s cleanup paths (signal or send error) while another thread is concurrently claiming or finishing it, so those paths can cancel timers and reset the state unconditionally. isotp_release() claims the socket the same way, so a racing sendmsg() sees a consistent ISOTP_SHUTDOWN and skips arming its timer or sending. Only the hrtimer callbacks stay outside so->rx_lock, since they run under so->rx_lock's cancellation elsewhere and taking it themselves would deadlock. so->tx_gen lets them recognize whether the transfer they timed out is still the one currently active, so they don't report an error against a transfer that has since completed or been superseded.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: openrisc: Fix jump_label smp syncing The original commit 8c30b0018f9d ("openrisc: Add jump label support") copies from arm64 and does not properly consider how icache invalidation on remote cores works in OpenRISC. On OpenRISC remote icaches need to be invalidated otherwise static key's may remain state after updating. Fix SMP cache syncing by: 1. Properly invalidate remote core icaches on SMP systems by using icache_all_inv. The old code uses kick_all_cpus_sync() which runs a no-op IPI function call on remote CPU's which does execute a lot of code and flushes many cache lines in the process, but does not flush all and it's not correct on OpenRISC. 2. For architectures that do not have WRITETHROUGH caches be sure to flush the dcache after patching. To test this I first reproduced the issue using a custom test module [0]. The test confirmed that some icache lines maintained stale static_key code sequences after calling static_branch_enable(). After this patch there are no longer jump_label coherency issues.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: SOF: topology: fix memory leak in snd_sof_load_topology When the topology filename contains "dummy" and tplg_cnt is 0, the function returns -EINVAL directly without freeing the tplg_files allocated by kcalloc() at line 2497. This leaks memory on every such topology load attempt. Fix this by setting ret = -EINVAL and jumping to the out: label, which already handles the kfree(tplg_files) cleanup.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: afs: Fix lack of locking around modifications of net->cells_dyn_ino Fix the lack of locking around modifications of net->cells_dyn_ino by taking net->cells_lock exclusively. This also requires to cell to be removed from net->cells_dyn_ino in afs_destroy_cell_work() rather than in afs_cell_destroy() as the latter runs in RCU cleanup context and sleeping locks cannot be taken there.

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: use opener credentials for FSCTL mutations SET_SPARSE, SET_ZERO_DATA and SET_COMPRESSION operate on an open SMB handle but call VFS xattr, fallocate or fileattr helpers with the current ksmbd worker credentials. Those helpers can revalidate inode permissions, ownership and LSM policy independently of the SMB handle access mask. Run each operation with the credentials captured in the target file when the handle was opened. Keep credential handling local to these single-file FSCTLs rather than applying session credentials to the complete IOCTL handler, which also contains handle-less and multi-handle operations.

    CVE-2026-72033

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: orangefs: keep the readdir entry size 64-bit in fill_from_part() fill_from_part() computes the size of a directory entry in size_t but stores it in a __u32. An entry length near U32_MAX wraps it to a small value, bypasses the bounds check, and is then used to index the entry, reading far past the directory part -- an out-of-bounds read that oopses the kernel. Compute the size as a u64 so it cannot truncate; the bounds check then rejects the entry. The trailer is supplied by the userspace client.

    CVE-2026-72084

    Last Modified: 16 Oct 2026

    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: target: Bound PR-OUT TransportID parsing to the received buffer core_scsi3_decode_spec_i_port() and core_scsi3_emulate_register_and_move() hand the raw PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT parameter buffer to target_parse_pr_out_transport_id() without telling it how many bytes are valid. For an iSCSI TransportID (FORMAT CODE 01b), iscsi_parse_pr_out_transport_id() locates the ",i,0x" ISID separator with an unbounded strstr() (and on the error path prints the name with a further unbounded "%s"). An initiator can submit a TransportID whose iSCSI name contains neither a ",i,0x" substring nor a NUL terminator, filling the parameter list to its end, so the scan runs off the end of the buffer. When the parameter list spans more than one page the buffer is a multi-page vmap (transport_kmap_data_sg()), so the over-read walks into the trailing vmalloc guard page and oopses (KASAN: vmalloc-out-of-bounds in strstr). It is reachable by any fabric that delivers a PR OUT to a device exported through an iSCSI TPG, including a guest via vhost-scsi. Pass the number of received bytes down to the parser and validate the iSCSI TransportID's own self-described length (ADDITIONAL LENGTH + 4) once, up front: reject it if it is below the spc4r17 minimum or larger than the received buffer, then bound the separator search, the ISID walk and the name copy by that length. This is the length check the callers already perform after the parse (core_scsi3_decode_spec_i_port() compares tid_len against tpdl, core_scsi3_emulate_register_and_move() validates it against data_length), moved ahead of the scan. Also drop the unbounded "%s" of the unterminated name. Add per-format explicit name-length checks before copying into i_str, rather than silently truncating with min_t: for FORMAT CODE 00b reject if the descriptor body (tid_len - 4 bytes) cannot fit in i_str[TRANSPORT_IQN_LEN]; for FORMAT CODE 01b reject if the name portion (from &buf[4] up to the separator) cannot fit. Both checks make the bounds intent explicit at each format branch. While here, also reject a FORMAT CODE 01b TransportID whose ",i,0x" separator sits at the very end of the descriptor: that leaves an empty ISID and points the returned port nexus pointer at buf + tid_len, one past the descriptor, which the registration code (__core_scsi3_locate_pr_reg(), __core_scsi3_alloc_registration()) then dereferences as the ISID string -- the same over-read of the parameter buffer for a malformed descriptor.
