kernel: smb: client: fix query directory 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 client attempts to free the same memory buffer twice during a directory query operation. An attacker could potentially exploit this flaw to cause memory corruption,...
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: iomap: fix out-of-bounds bitmap_set() with zero-length range
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's iomap subsystem. An unsigned subtraction underflow occurs when ifssetrangedirty or ifssetrangeuptodate are called with a zero-length range. This can lead to an out-of-bounds write via bitmapset, potentially allowing a local attacker to cause memory corruptio...
kernel: bonding: alb: fix UAF in rlb_arp_recv during bond up/down
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's bonding driver, specifically within the Active-Backup Load Balancing ALB receive path. A local attacker can trigger a Use-After-Free UAF vulnerability in the rlbarprecv function by rapidly bringing a bond interface up and down while receiving Address...
kernel: Bluetooth: hci_ldisc: Clear HCI_UART_PROTO_INIT on error
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth Host Controller Interface HCI Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter UART driver. When the hciregisterdev function fails, a flag indicating protocol initialization is not properly cleared. This oversight allows incoming UART data to be process...
kernel: ipv4: free net->ipv4.sysctl_local_reserved_ports after unregister_net_sysctl_table()
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IPv4 networking component. The ipv4sysctlexitnet function prematurely frees the net-ipv4.sysctllocalreservedports memory. This can lead to a use-after-free vulnerability, where other threads might attempt to access deallocated memory. Such an issue can resul...
kernel: nvmet-auth: reject short AUTH_RECEIVE buffers
A flaw was found in the nvmet-auth component of the Linux kernel. A remote attacker, by sending a specially crafted AUTHRECEIVE buffer to an NVMe-oF NVM Express over Fabrics target with in-band authentication enabled, can trigger a heap out-of-bounds write. This vulnerability arises because the...
kernel: locking/rt: Fix the incorrect RCU protection in rt_spin_unlock()
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. The rtspinunlock function, and similar real-time RT locking mechanisms, incorrectly release Read-Copy-Update RCU protection before fully unlocking, leading to a Use-After-Free UAF vulnerability. This issue could allow a local attacker to potentially cause a...
kernel: Kernel: Remote out-of-bounds write in RDMA/siw
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Soft iWARP siw driver. A remote attacker, by sending specially crafted Read Response segments that exceed the requested length, can trigger an out-of-bounds write. This vulnerability can lead to memory corruption, potentially causing a kernel crash or...
kernel: net: mana: validate rx_req_idx to prevent out-of-bounds array access
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's mana network driver. In Confidential Virtual Machines VMs, a missing bounds check when processing network events can allow a malicious hardware component or a compromised VM to write data outside of an intended memory region. This out-of-bounds access could...
kernel: scsi: target: iscsi: Bound iscsi_encode_text_output() appends to rsp_buf
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's iSCSI Internet Small Computer System Interface target functionality. This vulnerability, a heap overrun, occurs because the iscsiencodetextoutput function does not properly check buffer capacity when processing login requests. A remote attacker could exploit...
kernel: nfsd: fix posix_acl leak on SETACL decode failure
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Network File System Daemon nfsd. This vulnerability occurs during the processing of Access Control List ACL set operations. If a specific decode step fails, a memory leak of a posixacl object occurs. This can lead to resource exhaustion over time, potentiall...
kernel: NFSv4/flexfiles: reject zero filehandle version count
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NFSv4 Network File System version 4 flexfiles component. This vulnerability occurs when the fflayoutalloclseg function processes a malformed flexfiles layout that specifies a zero filehandle version count. An attacker could exploit this by providing a...
kernel: NFSv4/pNFS: reject zero-length r_addr in nfs4_decode_mp_ds_addr
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's NFSv4/pNFS implementation. The nfs4decodempdsaddr function, responsible for decoding network address information, does not properly handle zero-length raddr opaque data. A malicious or compromised metadata server can exploit this by providing a zero-length...
kernel: KEYS: fix overflow in keyctl_pkey_params_get_2()
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's keyctlpkeyparamsget2 function within the KEYS subsystem. The vulnerability arises from an incorrect calculation of the internal output buffer's length, which can lead to a buffer overflow when a user-provided buffer is too small. This flaw could allow a loca...
kernel: net: ipv6: use-after-free in fib6_rule_suppress due to stale res->rt6 pointer
A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's IPv6 FIB rule lookup path. In fib6rulesuppress, when a route is suppressed and released via ip6rtputflags, the res-rt6 pointer is not cleared. If no later rule supplies a replacement route, fib6rulelookup returns the stale freed rt6in...
kernel: iomap: fix out-of-bounds bitmap_set() with zero-length range
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's iomap subsystem. An unsigned subtraction underflow occurs when ifssetrangedirty or ifssetrangeuptodate are called with a zero-length range. This can lead to an out-of-bounds write via bitmapset, potentially allowing a local attacker to cause memory corruptio...
kernel: exfat: fix potential use-after-free in exfat_find_dir_entry()
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's exFAT filesystem driver. A local attacker could exploit a use-after-free vulnerability in the exfatfinddirentry function. This occurs because a buffer is prematurely released while still being referenced, which can be triggered by processing a specially...
kernel: Bluetooth: hci_ldisc: Clear HCI_UART_PROTO_INIT on error
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth Host Controller Interface HCI Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter UART driver. When the hciregisterdev function fails, a flag indicating protocol initialization is not properly cleared. This oversight allows incoming UART data to be process...
