| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (powerz) Fix use-after-free on USB disconnect
After powerz_disconnect() frees the URB and releases the mutex, a
subsequent powerz_read() call can acquire the mutex and call
powerz_read_data(), which dereferences the freed URB pointer.
Fix by:
- Setting priv->urb to NULL in powerz_disconnect() so that
powerz_read_data() can detect the disconnected state.
- Adding a !priv->urb check at the start of powerz_read_data()
to return -ENODEV on a disconnected device.
- Moving usb_set_intfdata() before hwmon registration so the
disconnect handler can always find the priv pointer. |

media: mediatek: vcodec: fix use-after-free in encoder release path
The fops_vcodec_release() function frees the context structure (ctx)
without first cancelling any pending or running work in ctx->encode_work.
This creates a race window where the workqueue handler (mtk_venc_worker)
may still be accessing the context memory after it has been freed.
Race condition:
CPU 0 (release path) CPU 1 (workqueue)
--------------------- ------------------
fops_vcodec_release()
v4l2_m2m_ctx_release()
v4l2_m2m_cancel_job()
// waits for m2m job "done"
mtk_venc_worker()
v4l2_m2m_job_finish()
// m2m job "done"
// BUT worker still running!
// post-job_finish access:
other ctx dereferences
// UAF if ctx already freed
// returns (job "done")
kfree(ctx) // ctx freed
Root cause: The v4l2_m2m_ctx_release() only waits for the m2m job
lifecycle (via TRANS_RUNNING flag), not the workqueue lifecycle.
After v4l2_m2m_job_finish() is called, the m2m framework considers
the job complete and v4l2_m2m_ctx_release() returns, but the worker
function continues executing and may still access ctx.
The work is queued during encode operations via:
queue_work(ctx->dev->encode_workqueue, &ctx->encode_work)
The worker function accesses ctx->m2m_ctx, ctx->dev, and other ctx
fields even after calling v4l2_m2m_job_finish().
This vulnerability was confirmed with KASAN by running an instrumented
test module that widens the post-job_finish race window. KASAN detected:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in mtk_venc_worker+0x159/0x180
Read of size 4 at addr ffff88800326e000 by task kworker/u8:0/12
Workqueue: mtk_vcodec_enc_wq mtk_venc_worker
Allocated by task 47:

Freed by task 47:

kfree+0xee/0x3a0
fops_vcodec_release+0xb7/0x190
Fix this by calling cancel_work_sync(&ctx->encode_work) before kfree(ctx).
This ensures the workqueue handler is both cancelled (if pending) and
synchronized (waits for any running handler to complete) before the
context is freed.
Placement rationale: The fix is placed after v4l2_ctrl_handler_free()
and before list_del_init(&ctx->list). At this point, all m2m operations
are done (v4l2_m2m_ctx_release() has returned), and we need to ensure
the workqueue is synchronized before removing ctx from the list and
freeing it.
Note: The open error path does NOT need cancel_work_sync() because
INIT_WORK() only initializes the work structure - it does not schedule
it. Work is only scheduled later during device_run() operations. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: lan966x: fix use-after-free and leak in lan966x_fdma_reload()
When lan966x_fdma_reload() fails to allocate new RX buffers, the restore
path restarts DMA using old descriptors whose pages were already freed
via lan966x_fdma_rx_free_pages(). Since page_pool_put_full_page() can
release pages back to the buddy allocator, the hardware may DMA into
memory now owned by other kernel subsystems.
Additionally, on the restore path, the newly created page pool (if
allocation partially succeeded) is overwritten without being destroyed,
leaking it.
Fix both issues by deferring the release of old pages until after the
new allocation succeeds. Save the old page array before the allocation
so old pages can be freed on the success path. On the failure path, the
old descriptors, pages and page pool are all still valid, making the
restore safe. Also ensure the restore path re-enables NAPI and wakes
the netdev, matching the success path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/stat: deallocate damon_call() failure leaking damon_ctx
damon_stat_start() always allocates the module's damon_ctx object
(damon_stat_context). Meanwhile, if damon_call() in the function fails,
the damon_ctx object is not deallocated. Hence, if the damon_call() is
failed, and the user writes Y to “enabled” again, the previously
allocated damon_ctx object is leaked.
This cannot simply be fixed by deallocating the damon_ctx object when
damon_call() fails. That's because damon_call() failure doesn't guarantee
the kdamond main function, which accesses the damon_ctx object, is
completely finished. In other words, if damon_stat_start() deallocates
the damon_ctx object after damon_call() failure, the not-yet-terminated
kdamond could access the freed memory (use-after-free).
Fix the leak while avoiding the use-after-free by keeping returning
damon_stat_start() without deallocating the damon_ctx object after
damon_call() failure, but deallocating it when the function is invoked
again and the kdamond is completely terminated. If the kdamond is not yet
terminated, simply return -EAGAIN, as the kdamond will soon be terminated.

pinctrl: cirrus: cs42l43: Fix double-put in cs42l43_pin_probe()
devm_add_action_or_reset() already invokes the action on failure,
so the explicit put causes a double-put. |

crypto: ccp - Fix use-after-free on error path
In the error path of sev_tsm_init_locked(), the code dereferences 't'
after it has been freed with kfree(). The pr_err() statement attempts
to access t->tio_en and t->tio_init_done after the memory has been
released.
Move the pr_err() call before kfree(t) to access the fields while the
memory is still valid.
