CVE-2026-74435
•
published on August 15, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: rxrpc_verify_data ensure rx_dec_buffer alloc
rxrpc_recvmsg_data() calls rxrpc_verify_data() whenever the
rxrpc_call.rx_dec_buffer is unallocated and assumes that upon
successful return that rx_dec_buffer must be allocated.
However, rxrpc_verify_data() does not request an allocation if
the rxrpc_skb_priv.len is zero.
In addition, failure to allocate rx_dec_buffer will result in a
call to skb_copy_bits() with a NULL destination which can
trigger a NULL pointer dereference.
To prevent these issues rxrpc_verify_data() is modified to
always attempt to allocate the rxrpc_call.rx_dec_buffer if it
is NULL.
This issue was identified with assistance of a private
sashiko instance.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/radeon: fix integer overflow in radeon_align_pitch()
radeon_align_pitch() has the same kind of overflow issue as the old
amdgpu helper: both the alignment round-up add and the final
'aligned * cpp' calculation can overflow signed int.
If that wraps, radeon_mode_dumb_create() can end up returning an
invalid pitch or creating a zero-sized dumb buffer.
Fix this by using check_add_overflow() for the alignment round-up and
check_mul_overflow() for the final pitch calculation, returning 0 on
overflow. Also reject zero pitch and size in
radeon_mode_dumb_create().

CVE-2026-74407

published on August 15, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: cancel SSR work items during PCI shutdown
A reboot can crash the kernel if it overlaps with WLAN firmware crash
recovery (SSR). The crash is a NULL pointer dereference in the MHI teardown
path while freeing DMA-backed MHI contexts.
Simplified trace:
dma_free_attrs
mhi_deinit_dev_ctxt [mhi]
ath11k_pci_power_down [ath11k_pci]
ath11k_pci_shutdown [ath11k_pci]
device_shutdown
kernel_restart
On the host side, SSR is driven by the MHI RDDM callback, which queues
reset_work to perform device recovery. reset_work power-cycles the device
by calling ath11k_hif_power_down() followed by ath11k_hif_power_up(). The
power-down phase deinitializes MHI and frees DMA resources.
Shutdown/reboot runs fully asynchronously with this RDDM-driven SSR
recovery flow. As a result, the shutdown path
(ath11k_pci_shutdown() - ath11k_pci_power_down()) can race with the SSR
recovery sequence.
Fix this by canceling SSR-related work items during PCI shutdown, marking
the device as unregistering, and serializing the RDDM callback path that
checks and queues reset_work. This ensures that no new SSR recovery work
can be queued once teardown has started, and that any in-flight recovery
work is fully synchronized before device power-down, preventing MHI
teardown and DMA resource freeing from running more than once.
Note: This issue only affects PCI/MHI-based devices. AHB-based ath11k
devices do not queue reset_work in normal SSR flows.

CVE-2026-74392
•
published on August 15, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: limit target bio polling to one shot
dm_poll_bio() is the -poll_bio() callback for a stacked dm device.
The caller only knows about the dm queue, so it may decide to do a
spinning poll if it thinks a single queue is being polled. Passing those
flags unchanged to the mapped clone lets blk_mq_poll() spin on a target
queue from inside dm_poll_bio().
With io_uring IOPOLL on a dm-stripe target this can keep a task in
dm_poll_bio() -> bio_poll() -> blk_mq_poll()
long enough to trigger an RCU CPU stall, before io_uring gets back to
io_iopoll_check() and its need_resched() check.
Keep dm's ->poll_bio() bounded by forcing one-shot polling for target
bios. The caller can invoke dm_poll_bio() again if it wants to keep
polling, and it also gets a chance to reap completions or reschedule
between passes.

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.

CVE-2026-74568
•
published on August 15, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: vgic: Fix race between LPI release and re-registration
Fix a potential race between decrementing an LPI's reference count and
evicting that structure from the LPI xarray.
LPI structures are maintained in the VGIC LPI xarray (dist-lpi_xa).
When the reference count of an LPI structure drops to zero,
vgic_release_lpi_locked() removes the structure from the xarray and
frees it under the xarray lock.
However, the release of an LPI can race with a concurrent LPI
re-registration with the same INTID via vgic_add_lpi() on another CPU,
since the reference count drop and the xarray eviction are not performed
in a single atomic step. This can happen e.g. if the guest issues a
DISCARD while the LPI is still referenced from a vCPU's active-pending
list (ap_list), and the same INTID is re-mapped via MAPTI.
Particularly, vgic_release_lpi_locked() is called from two distinct
paths: direct release via vgic_put_irq(), and deferred release via
vgic_release_deleted_lpis(). During direct release, the issue can result
in deleting a newly registered LPI from the xarray:
CPU0 (Releasing LPI) CPU1 (Adding new LPI)
==================== =====================
vgic_put_irq()
__vgic_put_irq()
refcount_dec_and_test()
vgic_add_lpi()
xa_lock_irqsave()
old_irq = xa_load(.., intid)
vgic_try_get_irq_ref(old_irq) == false
new IRQ inserted --> __xa_store(.., intid, ..)
xa_unlock_irqrestore()
xa_lock_irqsave();
vgic_release_lpi_locked()
__xa_erase(.., irq->intid) -- BUG: new IRQ is erased
kfree_rcu(old_irq)
During the deferred release path, the old IRQ can be leaked:
CPU0 (Releasing LPI) CPU1 (Adding new LPI)
==================== =====================
vgic_put_irq_norelease()
__vgic_put_irq()
refcount_dec_and_test()
irq->pending_release = true
vgic_add_lpi()
xa_lock_irqsave()
old_irq = xa_load(.., intid)
vgic_try_get_irq_ref(oldirq) == false
BUG: old IRQ overwritten --> __xa_store(.., intid, ..)
xa_unlock_irqrestore()
vgic_release_deleted_lpis()
xa_lock_irqsave()
xa_for_each() { .. } <-- old IRQ with pending_release = true
is gone, so it cannot be released
To fix the direct release path, move the reference count drop inside
the xarray lock, making sure that vgic_add_lpi() never encounters the
to-be-released LPI.
In the deferred release path, the refcount drop must happen under a raw
spinlock, so the xarray lock cannot be grabbed, and the same solution
does not work. Instead, update vgic_add_lpi(), so that if it evicts
an LPI from the xarray, it takes on the responsibility of freeing it.
Consequently, an LPI may now be freed concurrently after a deferred
release drops the refcount, so accessing the pending_release field is no
longer safe from use-after-free. Delete all uses of the flag, and update
vgic_release_deleted_lpis() to identify orphaned LPIs purely based on
their refcount.

CVE-2026-74566
•
published on August 15, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
keys: make keyring key-chunk byte order agree with keyring_diff_objects()
keyring_get_key_chunk() loads description bytes into the index chunk low
address first, while keyring_diff_objects() numbers the first differing
bit from the low end and folds the absolute byte index into the level
without removing the inline-prefix offset the level already carries.
The two disagree on byte order and bit position, so the array can be
told two keys first differ at a bit that does not differ in the chunk
the walker uses, letting crafted descriptions collide into one node.
Load the chunk in the order keyring_diff_objects() assumes and drop the
inline-prefix length when folding the byte index into the level. This
only changes the in-memory ordering used to place keys within a keyring;
add, search and read of non-colliding keys are unaffected.

CVE-2026-74558
•
published on August 15, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xsk: reclaim invalid Tx descriptors in ZC batch path
The zero-copy Tx batch parser stops when it encounters an invalid
descriptor. If this happens after one or more continuation descriptors,
the Tx consumer can be advanced past fragments that are neither submitted
to the driver nor returned to userspace through the completion ring.
A similar problem occurs when a packet exceeds xdp_zc_max_segs. The
descriptors consumed up to the limit are released without completion, and
the remaining continuation descriptors can subsequently be interpreted
as the beginning of another packet.
Parse Tx batches in packet units and distinguish descriptors belonging to
complete valid packets from descriptors consumed while draining an
invalid or oversized packet. Return the former to the driver and append
the latter to the CQ address area so userspace can reclaim their UMEM
frames.
Treat a standalone invalid descriptor as a one-descriptor reclaim-only
packet. Advancing the Tx-ring consumer releases the ring slot, but does
not by itself return ownership of the referenced UMEM frame to userspace.
Once draining starts, continue until the packet's end-of-packet
descriptor is consumed. Preserve the drain state on the socket when EOP
has not yet been supplied, so draining can continue during a later call.
Leave incomplete but otherwise valid packets on the Tx ring.
Shared-UMEM pools using multi-buffer Tx also need packet-framed parsing.
Walk their Tx sockets one packet at a time, preserving the existing
per-socket fairness scheme, instead of using the legacy one-descriptor
fallback. Keep that fallback for shared pools that do not use
multi-buffer Tx. Since the drain state is maintained per socket and both
the singular and shared paths can resume an interrupted drain, changing
the socket list from singular to shared requires no special bind-time
transition.
CQ entries are positional, and drivers may complete only part of the Tx
work returned by xsk_tx_peek_release_desc_batch(). Therefore, reclaim-only
entries cannot be published immediately when earlier driver-visible
descriptors are still outstanding.
Track the number of driver-visible CQ entries preceding the reclaim
entries. Let xsk_tx_completed() publish partial hardware Tx completions,
and publish the reclaim entries only after every earlier Tx descriptor
has completed. Complete a reclaim-only batch immediately when there is no
driver-visible work in front of it, and prevent another Tx batch from
being appended while reclaim entries remain pending.
Also cap batch processing by the size of the pool's temporary descriptor
array, as Tx rings belonging to sockets sharing a UMEM may have different
sizes.
This ensures that every invalid Tx descriptor consumed by the ZC batch
path is either submitted to the driver as part of a valid packet or
returned to userspace without violating CQ completion ordering.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: libsas: Fix HA resume deadlock and hisi_sas disk-wake race
Commit fbefe22811c3 ("scsi: libsas: Don't always drain event workqueue
for HA resume") introduced sas_resume_ha_no_sync() to avoid a deadlock:
the PHYE_RESUME_TIMEOUT handler, running on the HA event workqueue,
calls sas_deform_port() - sas_destruct_devices(), which removes SCSI
devices and waits for the host to become runtime-active. But the host
cannot resume until sas_resume_ha() -> sas_drain_work() returns, and the
drain is blocked on that very handler.
However skipping the drain reintroduces a race: hisi_sas returns from
resume before all PHY UP work and libsas discovery work finish. The
controller may then autosuspend while disks are still waking up. The
disks issue IO to a suspended controller, the IO fails, and the disks
get disabled.
Fix the deadlock at its source by moving the PHYE_RESUME_TIMEOUT
notification to after sas_drain_work(). By then the host resume is about
to complete, so device removal through device_link no longer blocks on
the resume and the cycle is broken.
With the deadlock gone, restore sas_resume_ha() (the draining variant)
in hisi_sas and remove sas_resume_ha_no_sync().
The reorder is safe for the other libsas consumers (isci, pm8001,
aic94xx, mvsas). During suspend, sas_suspend_devices() calls
sas_notify_lldd_dev_gone() for each device, which sets dev->lldd_dev to
NULL. When scsi_unblock_requests re-enables I/O in resume, any I/O to a
timed-out phy's disk is immediately rejected by the LLDD before reaching
hardware: isci returns SAS_DEVICE_UNKNOWN (mapped to DID_BAD_TARGET),
and pm8001 returns SAS_PHY_DOWN (mapped to DID_NO_CONNECT). Both
complete directly via scsi_done() without entering SCSI EH. This is
identical in both the old and new ordering since lldd_dev_gone runs
during suspend, before resume. The reorder only affects when the
PHYE_RESUME_TIMEOUT handler runs (synchronized by sas_drain_work()
vs. asynchronous after resume returns), not whether I/O can reach the
device. aic94xx and mvsas do not register any PM ops and never reach
this code path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath12k: fix out-of-bounds clear_bit in ath12k_mac_dp_peer_cleanup()
ath12k_mac_dp_peer_cleanup() clears the ML peer ID slot on the
free_ml_peer_id_map bitmap by indexing it with dp_peer-peer_id. That is
wrong: dp_peer->peer_id for an MLO peer always carries the
ATH12K_PEER_ML_ID_VALID bit (BIT(13)), so clear_bit() is invoked with
index >= 0x2000, which is far outside the bitmap of ATH12K_MAX_MLO_PEERS
(256) bits and corrupts memory adjacent to ah->free_ml_peer_id_map. The
intended bitmap entry also never gets cleared, so subsequent
ath12k_peer_ml_alloc() calls eventually run out of IDs.
The ID without the VALID bit is what ath12k_peer_ml_alloc() returned and
is stored in ahsta->ml_peer_id. Use that instead.
While there, also reset ahsta->ml_peer_id to ATH12K_MLO_PEER_ID_INVALID so
the bitmap and ahsta->ml_peer_id stay in sync.

hwmon: (lm90) Only report alarms if driver is ready
Userspace can read sysfs attributes before driver registration is complete,
immediately after devm_hwmon_device_register_with_info() has been called.
At that time, data-hwmon_dev is not yet initialized. This can trigger
a NULL pointer access since lm90_update_device() and with it
lm90_update_alarms_locked() will be called. This call schedules

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (nzxt-smart2) DMA-align output buffer
Sashiko reports:
When send_output_report() calls hid_hw_output_report(), the underlying USB
HID core calls usb_interrupt_msg() which maps this buffer directly for DMA.
When the DMA mapping flushes or invalidates the cacheline, it will corrupt
the adjacent variables (mutex, update_interval) that were modified
concurrently by the CPU. This causes memory corruption due to cacheline
sharing on non-coherent CPU architectures (such as ARM or MIPS). The DMA
API debugging tool (CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG) will trigger runtime warnings
for this violation.
Any operation that triggers send_output_report() (like setting a fan speed
or updating the interval) causes the USB DMA mapping. On systems with
non-coherent caches, this structural bug causes immediate and deterministic
memory corruption.
Align the output buffer to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to fix the problem.

net: do not send ICMP/NDISC Redirects when peer allocation fails
When inet_getpeer_v4() or inet_getpeer_v6() fails to allocate a peer entry
under memory pressure or tree size caps, redirect handlers previously fell
back to sending un-rate-limited ICMP/NDISC Redirect messages.
In IPv4, ip_rt_send_redirect() called icmp_send() directly when peer == NULL.
In IPv6, ip6_forward() and ndisc_send_redirect() passed a NULL peer into
inet_peer_xrlim_allow(), which returned true when peer == NULL.
Because ICMP/NDISC Redirects are not part of the default global rate limit
mask (sysctl_icmp_ratemask), sending redirects when peer == NULL creates
an un-rate-limited ICMP packet storm.
Fix this by failing closed in ip_rt_send_redirect(), ip6_forward(), and
ndisc_send_redirect() when peer is NULL.

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.
