CVE-2026-99207
•
published on October 28, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: Disable interrupts while holding delayed_cmd_lock
target_do_delayed_work() takes dev-delayed_cmd_lock with a plain
spin_lock(). It runs from system_percpu_wq, so interrupts stay enabled
while the lock is held. Every other acquisition of that lock uses
spin_lock_irqsave(): target_handle_task_attr() and
transport_complete_ordered_sync() in target_core_transport.c, and
target_non_ordered_release() in target_core_device.c.
That was safe while every caller of transport_complete_task_attr() ran
in process context: target_complete_ok_work() from target_completion_wq,
transport_complete_qf() from dev->qf_work_queue, and
transport_generic_request_failure() from the submit and execute paths.
Since commit 06933066d88a ("scsi: target: Add support for completing
commands from backend context") that is no longer true. With
complete_type=1 on a fabric that sets direct_compl_supp,
target_complete() runs target_complete_ok_work() inline in the backend's
completion context, which target_complete_cmd_with_sense() documents as
"May be called from interrupt context". For iblock that is the bio
end_io.
target_complete_ok_work() starts with transport_complete_task_attr(),
which takes delayed_cmd_lock in two ways:
- Every ORDERED command is put on dev->delayed_cmd_list by
target_handle_task_attr() and dispatched from there by
target_do_delayed_work(), which marks it SCF_TASK_ORDERED_SYNC. Its
completion therefore goes through transport_complete_ordered_sync().
- A SIMPLE command that completes while an ORDERED command is pending
drops the last reference to the killed dev->non_ordered, and
percpu_ref_put() then runs target_non_ordered_release() in the
completing context.
Both take the lock and, if commands are waiting, call
schedule_work(&dev->delayed_cmd_work), which queues on system_percpu_wq,
i.e. on the CPU that took the completion. Further completions for the
same queue are typically delivered there too, so one arriving while the
work holds the lock spins on it forever.
Reaching this needs complete_type=1, which is not the default
(vhost-scsi, the only fabric with direct_compl_supp, defaults to
TARGET_QUEUE_COMPL), a backend whose I/O completes from interrupt
context, and ORDERED commands from the initiator. Linux virtio_scsi
guests send only VIRTIO_SCSI_S_SIMPLE and never take the ordered path;
any guest that uses the ORDERED task attribute, which vhost-scsi
accepts, does.
target_do_delayed_work() is a work item and always runs in process
context, so spin_lock_irq() is sufficient.
Found by inspection; no runtime report. A single ORDERED command goes
through both acquisitions, so with CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING the first one
completed through direct completion should produce an inconsistent lock
state report on delayed_cmd_lock (hardirq or softirq, depending on where
the backend completes).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched/core: Call wakeup_preempt() for queued tasks during class change
Paul reported recent RCU changes exposed a lost resched where CPU idles
with a rcutorture thread waiting while being completely runnable.
Dumping the rq state at the time of idling with runnable tasks showed
the following:
rq-next_class = &fair_sched_class
rq->nr_running = 1
rq->cfs.h_nr_queued = 0
rq->rt.rt_nr_running = 1
Although the waiting task was an RT task, "rq->next_class" did not point
to rt_sched_class and was stuck at the lower priority fair_sched_class.
Inspecting sched_change_end() revealed the following race with
__sched_setscheduler() for queued, but non-running tasks:
CPU0 CPU1
==== ====
__schedule()
/*
* rq->donor is a fair task that blocks.
* rq->next_class = &fair_sched_class
*/
rq_lock(rq0)
pick_next_task()
/* nr_running = 0 */
pick_task_fair()
sched_balance_newidle()
raw_spin_rq_unlock(rq0)
rq_lock(rq0)
activate_task(rq0, p)
/* p is a fair task */
rq0->nr_running++;
rq0->cfs.h_nr_queued++;
wakeup_preempt(rq, p)
rq->next_class = &fair_sched_class
resched_curr()
rq_unlock(rq0)
__sched_setscheduler(p)
/* p is moved to SCHED_RR */
task_rq_lock(p)
sched_change_begin()
rq0->cfs.h_nr_queued--;
rq0->rt.rt_nr_running++;
sched_change_end()
/*
* p->on_rq = 1 (ctx->queued)
* but p is not rq->donor
* (!ctx->running) hence
* resched_curr() is and
* rq->next_class upgrade is
* skipped.
*/
task_rq_unlock()
raw_spin_rq_lock(rq0)
/*
* rq->nr_running = 1
* rq->cfs.h_nr_queued = 0
* rq->rt.rt_nr_running = 1
* rq->next_class = &fair_sched_class
*/
if (rq->cfs.h_nr_queued && ...)
/* Above is false */
if (rq_modified_above(this_rq, &fair_sched_class))
/* Also false since rq->next_class is still fair */
/*
* sched_balance_newidle() is considered to
* have failed to pull any fair tasks and no
* other wakeups were detected.
*/
return NULL; /* pick_task_fair() */
pick_task_idle()
return rq->idle;
next = rq->idle;
/* Preemption indicators are lost */
clear_tsk_need_resched(prev);
clear_preempt_need_resched();
rq->curr = rq->idle;
!!! rq->idle switches in with rq->running == 1 but !need_resched() !!!
In simple words, enqueue, followed by a class change of the newly queued
task goes unnoticed in rq->next_class indicator and
sched_balance_newidle() sees no fair task, nor any higher priority task
enqueued.
The above sequence will lead to CPU idling with a runnable task on the
CPU.
Call wakeup_preempt() for ctx->queued cases in sched_change_end() to
re-evaluate rq->next_class after class change (ENQUEUE_CLASS) and set
the NEED_RESCHED indicator accordingly.
Newidle balance will correctly see an enqueue of a higher priority

•
published on October 28, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2/dlm: Protect the recovery list during debugfs reads
Recovery participant records must remain alive while debug_state_print()
walks reco.node_data and formats their fields. The formatter holds
dlm-spinlock, but the recovery participant list is protected by
dlm_reco_state_lock. In particular, dlm_destroy_recovery_area() detaches
the list under dlm_reco_state_lock and frees the detached records after
releasing it. A concurrent debugfs open can therefore read freed memory.
Protect the participant traversal and field reads in debug_state_print()
with dlm_reco_state_lock, matching the existing list writers. This also
serializes the traversal against list_add_tail() during recovery-area
initialization. Make the existing lock available to the debug code
through dlmcommon.h; the lock remains internal to the OCFS2 DLM module.
Release dlm->spinlock after formatting the other domain state and before
acquiring dlm_reco_state_lock, so the debug reader does not nest the two
locks. Leave recovery list insertion, detachment and freeing unchanged.

CVE-2026-99203
•
published on October 28, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pipe: preserve existing fasync readers on writer setup failure
F_SETFL and FIOASYNC decide whether to invoke -fasync() before
pipe_fasync() takes pipe->mutex. Two enables of one O_RDWR FIFO can
therefore both enter the callback.
fasync_helper() allocates before checking for an existing entry. If the
first enable installs both entries, a second enable can update the
reader entry and then fail the allocation for the writer entry. The
error path removes the pre-existing reader entry, clearing FASYNC while
the writer entry remains registered. __fput() then skips ->fasync(), so a
later pipe notification can dereference the freed file or its f_owner.
An unprivileged memory-pressure reproducer triggers a KASAN
slab-use-after-free in send_sigio() through this path.
Keep the reader helper's result and undo the registration only if this
call added it. The pipe mutex serializes changes to both lists, so a
failed new registration still removes its reader, while a failed
duplicate preserves the existing registrations and FASYNC. Successful
duplicate enables continue to update fa_fd as before.

CVE-2026-99202
•
published on October 28, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: libsas: Fix SMP IO deadlock during HA resume
smp_execute_task_sg() calls pm_runtime_get_sync() on the host before
issuing an SMP command. When that command is itself issued from the HA
resume path, the get_sync() deadlocks: it waits for the ongoing resume
(the device is RPM_RESUMING), while the resume is blocked in
sas_drain_work() waiting for that same SMP IO to complete.
The deadlock needs an expander-attached SATA disk. During
sas_resume_ha() - sas_drain_work(), DISCE_RESUME -> sas_resume_sata()
-> ata_sas_port_resume() requests ATA_EH_RESET, and the hard reset for
such a disk is done via SMP PHY CONTROL (sas_ata_hard_reset() ->
sas_phy_reset() -> sas_smp_phy_control() ->
smp_execute_task_sg()). Direct-attached SATA resets through
lldd_control_phy() and SSP devices use TMFs, so neither hits this.
Replace the get_sync()/put_sync() pair with
pm_runtime_get_noresume()/pm_runtime_put(). smp_execute_task_sg() only
needs to hold off autosuspend while the SMP is in flight, and it must
not try to resume the host: a sync resume issued from the HA resume path
itself is what deadlocks, and by the time sas_resume_ha() runs, hw_init
has already reinitialized the hardware, so the device is accessible
without one.
The usage reference is still required. Discovery work normally runs
inside an event worker's PM reference, taken at sas_notify_port_event()
notify time and held until the handler has flushed the disco
queue. sas_rediscover_ex_phy() however requeues DISCE_REVALIDATE_DOMAIN
from within the revalidation worker itself, and flush_workqueue() does
not wait for work items queued during execution, so that chained
revalidation runs with no outer PM reference - without the
get_noresume(), its SMP could race autosuspend.
For the BSG path, sas_smp_handler() is the only caller which may find
the host autosuspended: expander SMP requests do not go through any SCSI
device request queue, so nothing else in that path holds the host
awake. Resume it there with pm_runtime_resume_and_get() and check the
result.

CVE-2026-99201
•
published on October 28, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netlink: avoid hashing the network namespace pointer
The netlink rhashtable key includes a raw struct net pointer and a
user-controlled port ID. Both /proc/net/netlink and socket diagnostics
expose the table's bucket order. By binding and rebinding chosen
NETLINK_USERSOCK port IDs, an unprivileged reader can distinguish equal
buckets and recover the low bits of the Jenkins hash. Its 32-bit seed
and the limited set of kernel-image slides can then be searched offline
to recover the address of init_net.
Use the namespace's unique, non-address net_cookie in the comparison
key instead. It is assigned before the per-net initializers run and
remains unchanged for the namespace's lifetime. The lookup key and
object hash are still built by netlink_compare_arg_init(), keeping
lookup, insertion, removal and rehashing consistent while preserving
namespace separation. Neither public table walker needs to change.
Reading the socket's namespace cookie in netlink_compare() is safe
under RCU, including during namespace teardown. netlink_release()
removes the socket from the hash table and defers its final put with
call_rcu(). cleanup_net() runs the per-net exit methods and waits for
outstanding RCU callbacks with rcu_barrier() before freeing namespace
storage.
Unlike ns.ns_id, net_cookie is also available and initialized during
setup_net() in older stable kernels, making the change straightforward
to backport to v5.15 and later.

net: bcmgenet: unshare the skb before writing the control block
bcmgenet stores first_cb, last_cb and bytes_sent in the skb control
block and reads them back on completion to free the skb and credit BQL.
ether_setup() leaves IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING set, so the stack can resubmit
a shared skb that is still in the ring. The next transmit overwrites
last_cb, so the earlier slots complete without crediting their bytes
and BQL stalls the queue until the watchdog resets it.
Unshare the skb before writing the control block.
Reproduce with pktgen in clone_skb mode, which hands the driver the same
skb while earlier copies are still in the ring:
modprobe pktgen

CVE-2026-99191
•
published on October 28, 2026
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
calipso: keep BIG TCP payload_len in calipso_skbuff_setattr()
calipso_skbuff_setattr() adjusts payload_len by the length of the
option it inserts or resizes:
payload = ntohs(ip6_hdr-payload_len);
ip6_hdr->payload_len = htons(payload + len_delta);
GRO can build BIG TCP packets larger than IPV6_MAXPLEN, and stores
payload_len == 0 for them; ipv6_payload_len() then falls back to
skb->len. For such a packet forwarded to a destination mapped to
CALIPSO, the code above writes len_delta (or 65536 + len_delta when
shrinking) into payload_len, and ipv6_payload_len() no longer falls
back to skb->len. nf_tables, conntrack and sch_cake rely on it.
The same arithmetic also wraps when a packet grows past IPV6_MAXPLEN,
and a BIG TCP packet that shrinks below IPV6_MAXPLEN should get its
real length back.
Set payload_len from the skb length with ipv6_set_payload_len(), which
stores 0 above IPV6_MAXPLEN and the real length otherwise, as
ipv6_gro_complete() does. The network header was just reset to
skb->data, so skb->len - sizeof(*ip6_hdr) is the payload length.
Tested on one kernel (arm64, QEMU) with SELinux permissive, a minimal
mdp-generated policy (network_peer_controls=1), "netlabelctl calipso
add pass doi:16" and a NetLabel mapping of fd00:2::/64 to CALIPSO
DOI 16. calipso_skbuff_setattr() was called through
netlbl_skbuff_setattr() from a test-only debugfs hook (not part of
this patch) adding a level-only label; payload_len after the call:
case before fix after fix real length
1000, unlabeled 1016 1016 1016
70000 GSO, payload_len 0 16 0 70016
65530 GSO, grows past MAXPLEN 10 0 65546
65540 GSO with a 24 byte hop
header, shrinks below MAXPLEN 65528 65532 65532
1000 with a 24 byte hop header 992 992 992
(0 means ipv6_payload_len() returns the real length.) On the forward
path, with a client injecting unlabeled UDP through a router to a
server, the router adds the CALIPSO option and the server delivers all
datagrams (Udp6InDatagrams 5, Ip6InTruncatedPkts 0) with this patch.

gpio: mxc: fix race between chained IRQ handler install and probe completion
mxc_update_irq_chained_handler() is called before the IRQ domain, the
generic IRQ chip, and the port list entry are set up. If an interrupt
arrives in that window:
- mx3_gpio_irq_handler() calls generic_handle_domain_irq() with
port-domain still NULL.
- mx2_gpio_irq_handler() walks mxc_gpio_ports, but the port has not
been added to the list yet.
Additionally, if any of the subsequent probe steps
(gpio_generic_chip_init(), devm_gpiochip_add_data(),
irq_domain_create_legacy(), or mxc_gpio_init_gc()) fail, the error
paths never unregister the chained handler, leaving a dangling handler
that points at freed memory.
Move the handler installation after all its dependencies are ready and
after list_add_tail(), so the handler is never live while the data
structures it touches are incomplete, and is never installed if probe
fails.

CVE-2026-99188

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: stmmac: dwmac1000: clear the RGMII status interrupt
Since commit 2e2c878a3141 ("net: stmmac: remove SGMII/RGMII/SMII
interrupt handling") nothing on the RGMII path reads GMAC_RGSMIIIS, so
RGSMIIIS stays pending behind GMAC_INT_MASK from the first link change
on. stmmac_resume() resets the MAC in stmmac_hw_setup(); the reset sets
GMAC_INT_MASK to 0 until dwmac1000_core_init() writes the mask again,
and the pending status storms the line:
dwmac_dma_interrupt: unexpected status 04000000
A register dump at the first message on ODROID-HC4 showed it:
core int_status 00000001 int_mask 00000000 pmt 00000000 rgsmiiis 0000000d
When the resume thread runs on the CPU that takes the MAC interrupt,
the storm starves it: a soft lockup, then a watchdog reset or a hang.
Read GMAC_RGSMIIIS in dwmac1000_irq_status() when the status is not
masked, as the driver did before 2e2c878a3141; the read clears it.
Wake-on-LAN resume from s2idle with the resume thread and the MAC
interrupt on one CPU: Helios64 (dwmac-rk), 7.3-rc6, soft-locked in 3 of
3 resumes without a fix and in 0 of 10 with this patch; it ran with an
out-of-tree dwmac-rk change that keeps the GMAC powered across suspend.
ODROID-HC4 (dwmac-meson8b): 0 of 10 with this patch, 2 of 2 without a
fix on a 7.3-rc5 build. irq_rgmii_n went up by one per resume.
