kernel: netfilter: nf_queue: pin bridge device while NFQUEUE holds fake dst

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's netfilter component, specifically within the nfqueue functionality. When a bridged packet is queued to NFQUEUE, it can retain a reference to a bridge's private fake destination 'dst' even after the bridge teardown has begun. This can lead to a use-after-free...

kernel: netfilter: flowtable: publish GC-visible tuple last

A flaw was found in the netfilter flowtable component of the Linux kernel. This vulnerability occurs due to a timing issue where the system's garbage collection can free a network flow while it is still being set up. This can lead to a 'use-after-free' condition, where the system attempts to acce...

kernel: vxlan: require CAP_NET_ADMIN in the device netns for changelink

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's VXLAN Virtual Extensible LAN implementation. A local attacker, with CAPNETADMIN network administration capability in one network namespace, could exploit an incorrect privilege check in the rtnl changelink path. This allows the attacker to modify the...

kernel: net: ip6_gre: require CAP_NET_ADMIN in the device netns for changelink

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ip6gre and ip6erspan tunnel drivers. The changelink functions in these drivers do not adequately verify administrative capabilities CAPNETADMIN across different network namespaces. This allows a local attacker, who has CAPNETADMIN in one network namespace bu...

kernel: nvme/ioctl: check SUBMIT_IO with nvme_cmd_allowed()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NVMe Non-Volatile Memory Express input/output control ioctl handling. An unprivileged local user could exploit this vulnerability by bypassing access checks in the NVMEIOCTLSUBMITIO function. This allows them to perform unauthorized I/O operations on a...

kernel: crypto: af_alg - Cap AEAD AD length to 0x80000000

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's afalg cryptography module. This vulnerability involves an arithmetic overflow when processing associated data lengths during the transmit buffer size check. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw by providing a specially crafted associated data length,...

kernel: RDMA/uverbs: Validate wqe_size before using it in ib_uverbs_post_send

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Remote Direct Memory Access RDMA subsystem, specifically within the ibuverbspostsend function. A local user can exploit this vulnerability by providing an invalid work queue element size wqesize from userspace without proper validation. This can lead to an...

kernel: KVM: SVM: Fix page overflow in sev_dbg_crypt() for ENCRYPT path

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Kernel-based Virtual Machine KVM module, specifically within the Secure Virtual Machine SVM component. The sevdbgcrypt function, when handling encryption, incorrectly calculates the transfer length, leading to a page overflow. This memory corruption can resu...

kernel: gfs2: Fix unlikely race in gdlm_put_lock

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s Global File System 2 implementation affecting distributed lock manager DLM handling in the gdlmputlock function. During an unmount operation, if the DFLUNMOUNT flag is set but the lockspace has not yet been fully released, remote callbacks gdlmast or gdlmbas...

kernel: Linux kernel: Denial of Service in RDMA/bnxt_re driver due to race condition during QP destruction

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Remote Direct Memory Access RDMA bnxtre driver. A local user could exploit a race condition that occurs when a Queue Pair QP is destroyed, but completion queue CQ polling continues. This can lead to a kernel panic, resulting in a Denial of Service DoS on the...

kernel: ipvs: clear the svc scheduler ptr early on edit

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IP Virtual Server IPVS component. During the ipvseditservice operation, the svc-scheduler pointer is cleared too late when unbinding an old scheduler. This improper handling allows packets to access previously freed scheduler data, leading to a use-after-fre...

kernel: tunnels: do not assume transport header in iptunnel_pmtud_check_icmp()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's tunnels module. This vulnerability occurs when the iptunnelpmtudcheckicmp function is called without the skb transport header being properly set. An attacker could exploit this condition to trigger an out-of-bound memory access, which may lead to system...

kernel: nvme-tcp: fix host memory disclosure on R2T for a read command

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NVMe Non-Volatile Memory Express over TCP nvme-tcp component. A malicious NVMe controller can exploit this vulnerability by sending a Ready to Transfer R2T command for a read request. The host system, failing to properly validate the request direction, will...

kernel: netfilter: nf_conntrack: use get_unaligned_be32() in tcp_sack()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's netfilter connection tracking subsystem. The TCP option processing mechanism improperly assumes memory alignment when reading packet headers. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending crafted TCP packets with misaligned SACK options throu...

kernel: ipvs: clear IPv4 options after rebasing tunnel ICMP errors

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IP Virtual Server IPVS component. When processing Internet Control Message Protocol ICMP errors for tunneled packets, the system can incorrectly use a stale IPv4 option offset. A remote attacker could exploit this by sending a specially crafted ICMP packet,...

kernel: nvme-pci: fix mempool alloc size

A flaw was addressed in the Linux kernel’s nvme-pci driver related to how the driver calculated the worst-case number of PRP Physical Region Page lists required for a given I/O request. The implementation previously rounded the allocation to one list instead of correctly converting the maximum si...

kernel: net/mlx5: Fix slab-out-of-bounds in mlx5_query_nic_vport_mac_list

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's mlx5 driver. The mlx5querynicvportmaclist function, which handles querying network interface card NIC virtual port vport MAC addresses, incorrectly sizes its internal buffer. When a Virtual Function VF vport is queried with a larger configured maximum, the...

kernel: tunnels: load network headers after skb_cow() in iptunnel_pmtud_build_icmp[v6]()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's tunnels module. This vulnerability, categorized as a Use-After-Free UAF, arises from improper handling of network header pointers during certain packet processing operations. Specifically, functions responsible for building Internet Control Message Protocol...

kernel: ipvlan: inherit needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from phy_dev

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ipvlan component. The ipvlan devices do not properly inherit neededheadroom and neededtailroom from the physical device phydev. This can lead to insufficient space being reserved for packet headers and trailers, potentially causing memory corruption, such as...

kernel: net/sched: act_ct: Only release RCU read lock after ct_ft

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A race condition in the actct module, specifically during the flow table lookup, can lead to a Use-After-Free UAF vulnerability. This occurs because a critical lock is released prematurely, allowing a memory object to be freed while still in use. An attacker...
