CVSS v3.1 |
| A flaw was found in X.Org Server Overlay Window. A Use-After-Free may lead to local privilege escalation. If a client explicitly destroys the compositor overlay window (aka COW), the Xserver would leave a dangling pointer to that window in the CompScreen structure, which will trigger a use-after-free later. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-throttle: Set BIO_THROTTLED when bio has been throttled
1.In current process, all bio will set the BIO_THROTTLED flag
after __blk_throtl_bio().
2.If bio needs to be throttled, it will start the timer and
stop submit bio directly. Bio will submit in
blk_throtl_dispatch_work_fn() when the timer expires.But in
the current process, if bio is throttled. The BIO_THROTTLED
will be set to bio after timer start. If the bio has been
completed, it may cause use-after-free blow.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bus: fsl-mc-bus: fix KASAN use-after-free in fsl_mc_bus_remove()
In fsl_mc_bus_remove(), mc->root_mc_bus_dev->mc_io is passed to
fsl_destroy_mc_io(). However, mc->root_mc_bus_dev is already freed in
fsl_mc_device_remove(). Then reference to mc->root_mc_bus_dev->mc_io
triggers KASAN use-after-free. To avoid the use-after-free, keep the
reference to mc->root_mc_bus_dev->mc_io in a local variable and pass to
fsl_destroy_mc_io().
This patch needs rework to apply to kernels older than v5.15. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: do not clean up repair bio if submit fails
The submit helper will always run bio_endio() on the bio if it fails to
submit, so cleaning up the bio just leads to a variety of use-after-free
and NULL pointer dereference bugs because we race with the endio
function that is cleaning up the bio. Instead just return BLK_STS_OK as
the repair function has to continue to process the rest of the pages,
and the endio for the repair bio will do the appropriate cleanup for the
page that it was given. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: xilinx_can: xcan_write_frame(): fix use-after-free of transmitted SKB
can_put_echo_skb() takes ownership of the SKB and it may be freed
during or after the call.
However, xilinx_can xcan_write_frame() keeps using SKB after the call.
Fix that by only calling can_put_echo_skb() after the code is done
touching the SKB.
The tx_lock is held for the entire xcan_write_frame() execution and
also on the can_get_echo_skb() side so the order of operations does not
matter.
An earlier fix commit 3d3c817c3a40 ("can: xilinx_can: Fix usage of skb
memory") did not move the can_put_echo_skb() call far enough.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs: fix use-after-free in state_show()
state_show() reads kdamond->damon_ctx without holding damon_sysfs_lock.
This allows a use-after-free race:
CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----
state_show() damon_sysfs_turn_damon_on()
ctx = kdamond->damon_ctx; mutex_lock(&damon_sysfs_lock);
damon_destroy_ctx(kdamond->damon_ctx);
kdamond->damon_ctx = NULL;
mutex_unlock(&damon_sysfs_lock);
damon_is_running(ctx); /* ctx is freed */
mutex_lock(&ctx->kdamond_lock); /* UAF */
(The race can also occur with damon_sysfs_kdamonds_rm_dirs() and
damon_sysfs_kdamond_release(), which free or replace the context under
damon_sysfs_lock.)
Fix by taking damon_sysfs_lock before dereferencing the context, mirroring
the locking used in pid_show().
The bug has existed since state_show() first accessed kdamond->damon_ctx. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl/acpi: Fix a use-after-free in cxl_parse_cfmws()
KASAN and KFENCE detected an user-after-free in the CXL driver. This
happens in the cxl_decoder_add() fail path. KASAN prints the following
error:
BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in cxl_parse_cfmws (drivers/cxl/acpi.c:299)
This happens in cxl_parse_cfmws(), where put_device() is called,
releasing cxld, which is accessed later.
Use the local variables in the dev_err() instead of pointing to the
released memory. Since the dev_err() is printing a resource, change the open
coded print format to use the %pr format specifier. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lib: cpu_rmap: Avoid use after free on rmap->obj array entries
When calling irq_set_affinity_notifier() with NULL at the notify
argument, it will cause freeing of the glue pointer in the
corresponding array entry but will leave the pointer in the array. A
subsequent call to free_irq_cpu_rmap() will try to free this entry again
leading to possible use after free.
Fix that by setting NULL to the array entry and checking that we have
non-zero at the array entry when iterating over the array in
free_irq_cpu_rmap().
The current code does not suffer from this since there are no cases
where irq_set_affinity_notifier(irq, NULL) (note the NULL passed for the
notify arg) is called, followed by a call to free_irq_cpu_rmap() so we
don't hit and issue. Subsequent patches in this series excersize this
flow, hence the required fix. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kernfs: fix use-after-free in __kernfs_remove
Syzkaller managed to trigger concurrent calls to
kernfs_remove_by_name_ns() for the same file resulting in
a KASAN detected use-after-free. The race occurs when the root
node is freed during kernfs_drain().
To prevent this acquire an additional reference for the root
of the tree that is removed before calling __kernfs_remove().

required):

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
efi: ssdt: Don't free memory if ACPI table was loaded successfully
Amadeusz reports KASAN use-after-free errors introduced by commit
3881ee0b1edc ("efi: avoid efivars layer when loading SSDTs from
variables"). The problem appears to be that the memory that holds the
new ACPI table is now freed unconditionally, instead of only when the
ACPI core reported a failure to load the table.
So let's fix this, by omitting the kfree() on success. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: multitouch: Correct devm device reference for hidinput input_dev name
Reference the HID device rather than the input device for the devm
allocation of the input_dev name. Referencing the input_dev would lead to a
use-after-free when the input_dev was unregistered and subsequently fires a
uevent that depends on the name. At the point of firing the uevent, the
name would be freed by devres management.
Use devm_kasprintf to simplify the logic for allocating memory and
formatting the input_dev name string. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: xts - Handle EBUSY correctly
As it is xts only handles the special return value of EINPROGRESS,
which means that in all other cases it will free data related to the
request.
However, as the caller of xts may specify MAY_BACKLOG, we also need
to expect EBUSY and treat it in the same way. Otherwise backlogged
requests will trigger a use-after-free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kernfs: Fix UAF in polling when open file is released

Stall Information) monitoring mechanism:

Reproduction Steps:
1. Open test/cpu.pressure and establish epoll monitoring
2. Disable monitoring: echo 0 > test/cgroup.pressure
3. Re-enable monitoring: echo 1 > test/cgroup.pressure
The race condition occurs because:
1. When cgroup.pressure is disabled (echo 0 > cgroup.pressure), it:
- Releases PSI triggers via cgroup_file_release()
- Frees of->priv through kernfs_drain_open_files()
2. While epoll still holds reference to the file and continues polling
3. Re-enabling (echo 1 > cgroup.pressure) accesses freed of->priv
epolling disable/enable cgroup.pressure
fd=open(cpu.pressure)
while(1)
...
epoll_wait
kernfs_fop_poll
kernfs_get_active = true echo 0 > cgroup.pressure
... cgroup_file_show

kernfs_activate_one(kn);
kernfs_fop_poll
kernfs_get_active = true
cgroup_file_poll
psi_trigger_poll
// UAF
...
end: close(fd)
To address this issue, introduce kernfs_get_active_of() for kernfs open
files to obtain active references. This function will fail if the open file
has been released. Replace kernfs_get_active() with kernfs_get_active_of()
to prevent further operations on released file descriptors. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/nouveau: fix a use-after-free in nouveau_gem_prime_import_sg_table()
nouveau_bo_init() is backed by ttm_bo_init() and ferries its return code
back to the caller. On failures, ttm will call nouveau_bo_del_ttm() and
free the memory.Thus, when nouveau_bo_init() returns an error, the gem
object has already been released. Then the call to nouveau_bo_ref() will
use the freed "nvbo->bo" and lead to a use-after-free bug.
We should delete the call to nouveau_bo_ref() to avoid the use-after-free. |
| FluidSynth is a software synthesizer based on the SoundFont 2 specifications. From versions 2.5.0 to before 2.5.2, a race condition during unloading of a DLS file can trigger a heap-based use-after-free. A concurrently running thread may be pending to unload a DLS file, leading to use of freed memory, if the synthesizer is being concurrently destroyed, or samples of the (unloaded) DLS file are concurrently used to synthesize audio. This issue has been patched in version 2.5.2. The problem will not occur, when explicitly unloading a DLS file (before synth destruction), provided that at the time of unloading, no samples of the respective file are used by active voices. The problem will not occur in versions of FluidSynth that have been compiled without native DLS support. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
accel/ivpu: Prevent recovery work from being queued during device removal
Use disable_work_sync() instead of cancel_work_sync() in ivpu_dev_fini()
to ensure that no new recovery work items can be queued after device
removal has started. Previously, recovery work could be scheduled even
after canceling existing work, potentially leading to use-after-free
bugs if recovery accessed freed resources.
Rename ivpu_pm_cancel_recovery() to ivpu_pm_disable_recovery() to better
reflect its new behavior. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/mediatek: fix potential OF node use-after-free
The for_each_child_of_node() helper drops the reference it takes to each
node as it iterates over children and an explicit of_node_put() is only
needed when exiting the loop early.
Drop the recently introduced bogus additional reference count decrement
at each iteration that could potentially lead to a use-after-free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: vhci: Prevent use-after-free by removing debugfs files early
Move the creation of debugfs files into a dedicated function, and ensure
they are explicitly removed during vhci_release(), before associated
data structures are freed.
Previously, debugfs files such as "force_suspend", "force_wakeup", and
others were created under hdev->debugfs but not removed in
vhci_release(). Since vhci_release() frees the backing vhci_data
structure, any access to these files after release would result in
use-after-free errors.
Although hdev->debugfs is later freed in hci_release_dev(), user can
access files after vhci_data is freed but before hdev->debugfs is
released. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ptp: ocp: fix use-after-free bugs causing by ptp_ocp_watchdog
The ptp_ocp_detach() only shuts down the watchdog timer if it is
pending. However, if the timer handler is already running, the
timer_delete_sync() is not called. This leads to race conditions
where the devlink that contains the ptp_ocp is deallocated while
the timer handler is still accessing it, resulting in use-after-free
bugs. The following details one of the race scenarios.
(thread 1) | (thread 2)
ptp_ocp_remove() |
ptp_ocp_detach() | ptp_ocp_watchdog()
if (timer_pending(&bp->watchdog))| bp = timer_container_of()
timer_delete_sync() |
|
devlink_free(devlink) //free |
| bp-> //use
Resolve this by unconditionally calling timer_delete_sync() to ensure
the timer is reliably deactivated, preventing any access after free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: fix NULL access of tx->in_use in ice_ptp_ts_irq
The E810 device has support for a "low latency" firmware interface to
access and read the Tx timestamps. This interface does not use the standard
Tx timestamp logic, due to the latency overhead of proxying sideband
command requests over the firmware AdminQ.
The logic still makes use of the Tx timestamp tracking structure,
ice_ptp_tx, as it uses the same "ready" bitmap to track which Tx
timestamps complete.
Unfortunately, the ice_ptp_ts_irq() function does not check if the tracker
is initialized before its first access. This results in NULL dereference or
use-after-free bugs similar to the following:
[245977.278756] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
[245977.278774] RIP: 0010:_find_first_bit+0x19/0x40
[245977.278796] Call Trace:
[245977.278809] ? ice_misc_intr+0x364/0x380 [ice]
This can occur if a Tx timestamp interrupt races with the driver reset
logic.
Fix this by only checking the in_use bitmap (and other fields) if the
tracker is marked as initialized. The reset flow will clear the init field
under lock before it tears the tracker down, thus preventing any
use-after-free or NULL access. |
