CVE-2025-39790
•
published on September 11, 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bus: mhi: host: Detect events pointing to unexpected TREs
When a remote device sends a completion event to the host, it contains a
pointer to the consumed TRE. The host uses this pointer to process all of
the TREs between it and the host's local copy of the ring's read pointer.
This works when processing completion for chained transactions, but can
lead to nasty results if the device sends an event for a single-element
transaction with a read pointer that is multiple elements ahead of the
host's read pointer.
For instance, if the host accesses an event ring while the device is
updating it, the pointer inside of the event might still point to an old
TRE. If the host uses the channel's xfer_cb() to directly free the buffer
pointed to by the TRE, the buffer will be double-freed.
This behavior was observed on an ep that used upstream EP stack without
'commit 6f18d174b73d ("bus: mhi: ep: Update read pointer only after buffer
is written")'. Where the device updated the events ring pointer before
updating the event contents, so it left a window where the host was able to
access the stale data the event pointed to, before the device had the
chance to update them. The usual pattern was that the host received an
event pointing to a TRE that is not immediately after the last processed
one, so it got treated as if it was a chained transaction, processing all
of the TREs in between the two read pointers.
This commit aims to harden the host by ensuring transactions where the
event points to a TRE that isn't local_rp + 1 are chained.

CVE-2025-39788
•
published on September 11, 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: ufs: exynos: Fix programming of HCI_UTRL_NEXUS_TYPE
On Google gs101, the number of UTP transfer request slots (nutrs) is 32,
and in this case the driver ends up programming the UTRL_NEXUS_TYPE
incorrectly as 0.
This is because the left hand side of the shift is 1, which is of type
int, i.e. 31 bits wide. Shifting by more than that width results in
undefined behaviour.
Fix this by switching to the BIT() macro, which applies correct type
casting as required. This ensures the correct value is written to
UTRL_NEXUS_TYPE (0xffffffff on gs101), and it also fixes a UBSAN shift
warning:
UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in drivers/ufs/host/ufs-exynos.c:1113:21
shift exponent 32 is too large for 32-bit type 'int'
For consistency, apply the same change to the nutmrs / UTMRL_NEXUS_TYPE
write.
