kernel: sched/psi: fix race between file release and pressure write

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Pressure Stall Information PSI subsystem. A race condition exists between the file release and pressure write operations, specifically concerning the priv member of struct kernfsopenfile. This can lead to a use-after-free vulnerability or a NULL dereference,...

kernel: udf: fix partition descriptor append bookkeeping

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Universal Disk Format UDF filesystem. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by tricking a user into mounting a specially crafted UDF image containing repeated partition descriptors. This could lead to a heap out-of-bounds write, potentially...

kernel: posix-cpu-timers: Prevent UAF caused by non-leader exec() race

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's CPU timer functionality. A race condition, which is a timing issue between different operations, can occur when a process attempts to delete a timer while another operation is still trying to access it. This can lead to a Use-After-Free UAF vulnerability,...

kernel: drm/amdkfd: Fix watch_id bounds checking in debug address watch v2

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's AMD KFD Kernel Fusion Driver component. A local user could exploit a boundary error in the debug address watch v2 functionality by providing a specially crafted watchid. This could lead to a buffer overflow, potentially allowing memory access outside of...

kernel: ip6_gre: Use cached t->net in ip6erspan_changelink()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ip6gre module. An unprivileged user could exploit this vulnerability by migrating a network device, causing the ip6erspanchangelink function to incorrectly handle network namespace references. This error leads to a use-after-free condition when the original...

kernel: scsi: target: iscsi: Fix CRC overread and double-free in iscsit_handle_text_cmd()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's iSCSI Internet Small Computer System Interface target subsystem. This vulnerability involves a buffer overread and a double-free error when processing iSCSI Text commands. A remote attacker could exploit these issues by sending specially crafted network...

Important: Red Hat Security Advisory: kernel security, bug fix, and enhancement update

An update for kernel is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System CVSS base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from th...

kernel: smb: client: fix query_info() replay double-free

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Server Message Block SMB client. This vulnerability, a double-free error, occurs when the queryinfo replay mechanism attempts to free a response buffer that has already been released. This can happen if an error occurs during the initialization of an SMB2...

kernel: smb/client: fix out-of-bounds read in symlink_data()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Server Message Block SMB client. This vulnerability arises from insufficient length validation in the smb2checkmessage function when processing symlink error responses. A remote attacker could exploit this by sending a specially crafted symlink error respons...

kernel: drm/amdgpu: Refactor amdgpu_gem_va_ioctl for Handling Last Fence Update and Timeline Management v4

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's AMD GPU amdgpu driver. Incorrect management of graphics memory dmafence references within the amdgpugemvaioctl function can lead to a reference count underflow and a use-after-after-free condition. A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to trigger...

kernel: drm/amd/display: Validate payload length and link_index in dc_process_dmub_aux_transfer_async

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Validate payload length and linkindex in dcprocessdmubauxtransferasync Why&How dcprocessdmubauxtransferasync copies payload-length bytes into a 16-byte stack buffer dpaux.data16 guarded only by an ASSERT, which i...

kernel: smb/client: handle overlapping allocated ranges in fallocate

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Server Message Block SMB client. The smb3simplefallocaterange function, which manages file allocation, can incorrectly process overlapping allocated ranges provided by a server. This can result in parts of a file not being properly zero-filled, leading to...

kernel: drm/amdkfd: Fix watch_id bounds checking in debug address watch v2

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's AMD KFD Kernel Fusion Driver component. A local user could exploit a boundary error in the debug address watch v2 functionality by providing a specially crafted watchid. This could lead to a buffer overflow, potentially allowing memory access outside of...

kernel: drm/amd/display: Use krealloc_array() in dal_vector_reserve()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's drm/amd/display component. The dalvectorreserve function calculates memory allocation size using 32-bit arithmetic, which can lead to an integer overflow. This overflow causes a smaller memory buffer to be allocated than intended, resulting in a heap overflo...

kernel: smb: client: fix double-free in SMB2_open() replay

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Server Message Block SMB client. A double-free vulnerability exists in the SMB2open replay mechanism. This occurs when a response-bearing attempt returns a replayable error and frees its response buffer, and then the cleanup process attempts to free the same...

kernel: drm/amdkfd: Fix out-of-bounds write in kfd_event_page_set()

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's drm/amdkfd component. An unprivileged local user can exploit an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the kfdeventpageset function. This occurs because the function writes data without properly validating the buffer size, allowing a small buffer to trigger a...

kernel: posix-cpu-timers: Prevent UAF caused by non-leader exec() race

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's CPU timer functionality. A race condition, which is a timing issue between different operations, can occur when a process attempts to delete a timer while another operation is still trying to access it. This can lead to a Use-After-Free UAF vulnerability,...

kernel: scsi: target: iscsi: Validate CHAP_R length before base64 decode

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's iSCSI target functionality. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a buffer overflow by sending a specially crafted Challenge-Handshake Authentication Authentication Protocol CHAP response. The system fails to validate the length of the...

kernel: drm/i915: Fix potential UAF in TTM object purge

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Intel i915 graphics driver drm/i915. This use-after-free UAF vulnerability occurs during the TTM object purge operation. An attacker could potentially exploit this to cause a system crash, leading to a denial of service...
