kernel: ALSA: timer: Forcibly close timer instances at closing

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Advanced Linux Sound Architecture ALSA timer component. This vulnerability occurs when a timer object is freed while timer instances are still associated with it, particularly when userspace-driven timers are involved. A local user can exploit this by...

kernel: wifi: iwlwifi: mld: stop TX during firmware restart

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's iwlwifi driver. When the Wi-Fi firmware crashes, the driver continues to process network transmission requests inefficiently. This creates a continuous loop of attempting to send data through an unresponsive firmware, consuming excessive CPU resources and...

kernel: net: ena: PHC: Fix potential use-after-free in get_timestamp

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Elastic Network Adapter ENA driver, specifically within the Precision Time Protocol Hardware Clock PHC timestamp retrieval function. A race condition exists where the gettimestamp function could attempt to access memory that has already been freed by the...

kernel: wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: fix driver-set TX rates on old devices

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's iwlwifi driver, affecting older Intel wireless devices. This vulnerability arises from incorrect handling of transmit TX rates, specifically when the driver attempts to set these rates. An attacker could potentially trigger a firmware assert or crash, leadin...

kernel: net: qrtr: restrict socket creation to the initial network namespace

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's QRTR Qualcomm IPC Router networking component. An unprivileged local attacker can create a QRTR socket in a separate network namespace. Due to improper handling of global state variables, this allows the attacker to send datagrams and control-plane messages ...

kernel: hwrng: virtio: clamp device-reported used.len at copy_data()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's virtio-rng driver. A malicious or buggy virtualized hardware random number generator virtio-rng backend can report an overly large data length to the guest operating system. This unchecked length can lead to an out-of-bounds read, causing the driver to acces...

kernel: ALSA: timer: Fix UAF at snd_timer_user_params()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Advanced Linux Sound Architecture ALSA timer component. A race condition can occur during the release of a timer object, specifically when the SNDRVTIMERIOCTLPARAMS ioctl is called concurrently. This can lead to a use-after-free vulnerability, potentially...

kernel: IB/isert: Reject login PDUs shorter than ISER_HEADERS_LEN

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Internet Small Computer System Interface iSCSI Extensions for Remote Direct Memory Access RDMA iSER module. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted login request with a payload shorter than expected, leading to an integer underflow. This underflow...

kernel: netfilter: handle unreadable frags

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's netfilter subsystem. This vulnerability occurs when the u32 module processes network packets containing unreadable fragments, leading to improper handling of these fragments. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw by sending specially crafted network...

kernel: wifi: mac80211: limit injected antenna index in ieee80211_parse_tx_radiotap

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's mac80211 WiFi subsystem. This vulnerability allows an attacker to cause undefined behavior by injecting a specially crafted frame with an invalid radiotap header. This can lead to system instability or a denial of service DoS, potentially causing the system ...

kernel: Linux kernel: ath9k Wi-Fi driver use-after-free vulnerability leading to system crash

A flaw was found in the ath9k Wi-Fi driver in the Linux kernel. A race condition exists during the asynchronous firmware loading process and device disconnection. A local attacker, by repeatedly connecting and disconnecting a malicious USB Wi-Fi device that fails firmware download, could trigger ...

kernel: Linux kernel SLIP: Out-of-bounds write due to race condition during MTU change

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's SLIP Serial Line Internet Protocol network component. A race condition exists during an MTU Maximum Transmission Unit change when the system reallocates receive buffers. This can allow a remote attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds write or write to a freed...

net/url: golang: golang net/url: Denial of Service from quadratic complexity in path resolution

A flaw was found in net/url, a component of golang. This vulnerability arises when resolving relative paths that contain numerous parent directory '..' segments. A remote attacker could exploit this by providing a specially crafted path, leading to quadratic time complexity and excessive memory...

net/mail: golang: Go net/mail: Denial of Service via crafted email inputs

A flaw was found in the net/mail package of the Go programming language. An attacker could provide specially crafted inputs to the ParseAddress, ParseAddressList, or ParseDate functions. This could lead to excessive consumption of CPU and memory resources, resulting in a Denial of Service DoS for...

net/mail: golang: net/mail: Denial of Service via pathological email address parsing

A flaw was found in the net/mail package within the Go standard library. A remote attacker could provide specially crafted, pathological email addresses. When these malformed email addresses are parsed by the consumePhrase function, it can lead to excessive resource consumption due to quadratic...

net/http: golang: Go net/http: Unencrypted HTTP/2 connections vulnerable to Denial of Service

A flaw was found in the net/http component of the Go standard library. When a server is configured to support unencrypted HTTP/2, it reads initial bytes from new connections to detect the HTTP/2 client preface. However, the ReadHeaderTimeout is not correctly applied during this process. This...

html/template: golang: Go html/template: Cross-Site Scripting via pathological input

A flaw was found in the html/template component of Go golang. Pathological inputs could prematurely close an unescaped forward slash '/', allowing an attacker to inject arbitrary content. This could lead to Cross-Site Scripting XSS, where malicious scripts are executed in a user's browser,...
