This is the standard local/guest-to-host vector used for SR-IOV VF-to-PF interface bugs.\nAC:L - The attacker fully controls both preconditions from inside the VF \u2014 it sends `VIRTCHNL_OP_ENABLE_CHANNELS` with `num_tc \u003c 4` and then a crafted `CONFIG_IRQ_MAP` with high queue-map bits set; the sequence is deterministic with no race or memory-layout dependency. The `spoofchk off` requirement is inherent to every deployment where ADq is used at all, i.e. exactly the deployments where the code is reachable.\nPR:L - The attacker needs only control of a VF that has been legitimately assigned to them \u2014 root inside their own guest VM or container, which is the normal granted privilege level of an SR-IOV tenant. No privilege on the host or in the PF\u0027s security authority is required, and the PF handler applies no capability or \"trusted VF\" check to this opcode.\nUI:N - The malicious VF driver sends the virtchnl messages entirely on its own initiative. No action by the host administrator or any other tenant is needed once a VF is assigned.\nS:C - The attacker is confined to a VF/guest security authority, but the bypassed validation causes the host PF driver to program hardware queue-interrupt registers (`I40E_QINT_RQCTL`/`I40E_QINT_TQCTL`) for queues outside the VF\u0027s allocation \u2014 resources owned by the PF (host) and by other VFs (other tenants). Impact therefore lands beyond the vulnerable component\u0027s security authority, as in a guest-to-host/cross-tenant escape.\nC:H - `i40e_vc_isvalid_queue_id()` is invoked with a stale/zero VSI id and performs no ownership check, letting a VF get its queue map validated against a VSI belonging to the PF or another VF and then attach foreign queues to its own MSI-X vector, exposing another tenant\u0027s data-path activity. Cross-tenant exposure of resources the VF has no right to observe warrants High.\nI:H - When the gate wrongly passes, `i40e_config_irq_link_list()` writes MMIO interrupt-control registers at PF-relative queue indices derived from unvalidated VF input, modifying hardware state owned by the PF and by other VFs. Unauthorized modification of another security authority\u0027s device configuration is a High integrity impact.\nA:H - Misprogramming `QINT_RQCTL`/`QINT_TQCTL` for queues belonging to the PF or other VFs breaks their Rx/Tx interrupt delivery, stalling the host\u0027s and co-tenant VMs\u0027 network data paths; queue contexts can also be pointed at `I40E_QUEUE_END_OF_LIST`, wedging the link list. A single unprivileged VF can repeat this at will, denying service to the whole port."

Title
i40e: add validation for ring_len param
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i40e: add validation for ring_len param
The `ring_len` parameter provided by the virtual function (VF)
is assigned directly to the hardware memory context (HMC) without
any validation.
To address this, introduce an upper boundary check for both Tx and Rx
queue lengths. The maximum number of descriptors supported by the
hardware is 8k-32.
Additionally, enforce alignment constraints: Tx rings must be a multiple
of 8, and Rx rings must be a multiple of 32.

"value": "AV:L - The vulnerability is triggered by a virtchnl `VIRTCHNL_OP_CONFIG_VSI_QUEUES` mailbox message sent by the VF driver over the PCIe admin queue, not by network traffic; the attacker needs local access to a guest VM or host process that owns an SR-IOV VF. This is the standard local guest-to-host device-passthrough attack path.\nAC:L - Exploitation is fully deterministic \u2014 the attacker simply emits one CONFIG_VSI_QUEUES message with a misaligned or oversized `ring_len` and the value is programmed into the HMC context unconditionally. There is no race, no timing window, and no dependence on memory layout the attacker cannot influence.\nPR:L - The attacker holds no privileges on the vulnerable component (the host PF driver) \u2014 only control of an assigned VF, which is exactly what an ordinary untrusted cloud tenant or container is granted. No trusted-VF check gates this opcode in `i40e_vc_process_vf_msg()`, so a normally provisioned, untrusted VF owner suffices.\nUI:N - The malicious virtchnl message is processed by the PF asynchronously from the admin receive queue with no action by the host administrator or any other user. No victim interaction is involved at any point.\nS:C - The attacking component is the VF under guest/tenant authority, while the impacted resources are the host-owned HMC hardware context, the shared physical NIC, and every other VF on the adapter \u2014 a guest-to-host boundary crossing analogous to a VM escape. Corruption of PF-managed hardware state propagates outside the attacker\u0027s security authority to the host and co-tenants.\nC:H - A qlen larger than the memory actually backing the descriptor ring makes the NIC fetch descriptors past the end of the allocated region, and in deployments without IOMMU isolation (vfio-pci noiommu/DPDK, `iommu=pt`, embedded platforms) that is a device-mediated out-of-bounds read of host physical memory. The 13-bit truncation additionally desynchronizes hardware and driver views of the ring, exposing stale descriptor and packet contents.\nI:H - The same unbounded qlen drives Rx descriptor writeback and Tx head writeback to addresses beyond the intended ring, yielding attacker-influenced DMA writes outside the allocated buffer, again unconstrained where the VF is not behind an IOMMU. It also lets an untrusted VF corrupt host-managed hardware queue state on an adapter shared with other tenants.\nA:H - Out-of-spec values (misaligned, or above the 8160-descriptor hardware maximum, or truncated by the 13-bit field) produce HMC error interrupts, DMA/IOMMU faults, queue hangs and PF-level resets that take down the entire physical NIC along with the host\u0027s own networking and all other VFs. The message can be replayed indefinitely from the guest, making it a persistent cross-tenant denial of service."

Title
nexthop: Forbid FDB status change while nexthop is in a group
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nexthop: Forbid FDB status change while nexthop is in a group
The kernel forbids the creation of non-FDB nexthop groups with FDB
nexthops:
# ip nexthop add id 1 via 192.0.2.1 fdb
# ip nexthop add id 2 group 1
Error: Non FDB nexthop group cannot have fdb nexthops.
And vice versa:
# ip nexthop add id 3 via 192.0.2.2 dev dummy1
# ip nexthop add id 4 group 3 fdb
Error: FDB nexthop group can only have fdb nexthops.
However, as long as no routes are pointing to a non-FDB nexthop group,
the kernel allows changing the type of a nexthop from FDB to non-FDB and
vice versa:
# ip nexthop add id 5 via 192.0.2.2 dev dummy1
# ip nexthop add id 6 group 5
# ip nexthop replace id 5 via 192.0.2.2 fdb
# echo $?
0
This configuration is invalid and can result in a NPD [1] since FDB
nexthops are not associated with a nexthop device:
# ip route add 198.51.100.1/32 nhid 6
# ping 198.51.100.1
Fix by preventing nexthop FDB status change while the nexthop is in a
group:
# ip nexthop add id 7 via 192.0.2.2 dev dummy1
# ip nexthop add id 8 group 7
# ip nexthop replace id 7 via 192.0.2.2 fdb
Error: Cannot change nexthop FDB status while in a group.

Title
can: mcba_usb: populate ndo_change_mtu() to prevent buffer overflow
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: mcba_usb: populate ndo_change_mtu() to prevent buffer overflow
Sending an PF_PACKET allows to bypass the CAN framework logic and to
directly reach the xmit() function of a CAN driver. The only check
which is performed by the PF_PACKET framework is to make sure that
skb->len fits the interface's MTU.
Unfortunately, because the mcba_usb driver does not populate its
net_device_ops->ndo_change_mtu(), it is possible for an attacker to
configure an invalid MTU by doing, for example:
$ ip link set can0 mtu 9999
After doing so, the attacker could open a PF_PACKET socket using the
ETH_P_CANXL protocol:
socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, htons(ETH_P_CANXL))
to inject a malicious CAN XL frames. For example:
struct canxl_frame frame = {
.flags = 0xff,
.len = 2048,
};
The CAN drivers' xmit() function are calling can_dev_dropped_skb() to
check that the skb is valid, unfortunately under above conditions, the
malicious packet is able to go through can_dev_dropped_skb() checks:
1. the skb->protocol is set to ETH_P_CANXL which is valid (the
function does not check the actual device capabilities).
2. the length is a valid CAN XL length.
And so, mcba_usb_start_xmit() receives a CAN XL frame which it is not
able to correctly handle and will thus misinterpret it as a CAN frame.
This can result in a buffer overflow. The driver will consume cf->len
as-is with no further checks on these lines:
usb_msg.dlc = cf->len;
memcpy(usb_msg.data, cf->data, usb_msg.dlc);
Here, cf->len corresponds to the flags field of the CAN XL frame. In
our previous example, we set canxl_frame->flags to 0xff. Because the
maximum expected length is 8, a buffer overflow of 247 bytes occurs!
Populate net_device_ops->ndo_change_mtu() to ensure that the
interface's MTU can not be set to anything bigger than CAN_MTU. By
fixing the root cause, this prevents the buffer overflow.

Title
can: sun4i_can: populate ndo_change_mtu() to prevent buffer overflow
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: sun4i_can: populate ndo_change_mtu() to prevent buffer overflow
Sending an PF_PACKET allows to bypass the CAN framework logic and to
directly reach the xmit() function of a CAN driver. The only check
which is performed by the PF_PACKET framework is to make sure that
skb->len fits the interface's MTU.
Unfortunately, because the sun4i_can driver does not populate its
net_device_ops->ndo_change_mtu(), it is possible for an attacker to
configure an invalid MTU by doing, for example:
$ ip link set can0 mtu 9999
After doing so, the attacker could open a PF_PACKET socket using the
ETH_P_CANXL protocol:
socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, htons(ETH_P_CANXL))
to inject a malicious CAN XL frames. For example:
struct canxl_frame frame = {
.flags = 0xff,
.len = 2048,
};
The CAN drivers' xmit() function are calling can_dev_dropped_skb() to
check that the skb is valid, unfortunately under above conditions, the
malicious packet is able to go through can_dev_dropped_skb() checks:
1. the skb->protocol is set to ETH_P_CANXL which is valid (the
function does not check the actual device capabilities).
2. the length is a valid CAN XL length.
And so, sun4ican_start_xmit() receives a CAN XL frame which it is not
able to correctly handle and will thus misinterpret it as a CAN frame.
This can result in a buffer overflow. The driver will consume cf->len
as-is with no further checks on this line:
dlc = cf->len;
Here, cf->len corresponds to the flags field of the CAN XL frame. In
our previous example, we set canxl_frame->flags to 0xff. Because the
maximum expected length is 8, a buffer overflow of 247 bytes occurs a
couple line below when doing:
for (i = 0; i < dlc; i++)
writel(cf->data[i], priv->base + (dreg + i * 4));
Populate net_device_ops->ndo_change_mtu() to ensure that the
interface's MTU can not be set to anything bigger than CAN_MTU. By
fixing the root cause, this prevents the buffer overflow.

Title
can: hi311x: populate ndo_change_mtu() to prevent buffer overflow
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: hi311x: populate ndo_change_mtu() to prevent buffer overflow
Sending an PF_PACKET allows to bypass the CAN framework logic and to
directly reach the xmit() function of a CAN driver. The only check
which is performed by the PF_PACKET framework is to make sure that
skb->len fits the interface's MTU.
Unfortunately, because the sun4i_can driver does not populate its
net_device_ops->ndo_change_mtu(), it is possible for an attacker to
configure an invalid MTU by doing, for example:
$ ip link set can0 mtu 9999
After doing so, the attacker could open a PF_PACKET socket using the
ETH_P_CANXL protocol:
socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, htons(ETH_P_CANXL))
to inject a malicious CAN XL frames. For example:
struct canxl_frame frame = {
.flags = 0xff,
.len = 2048,
};
The CAN drivers' xmit() function are calling can_dev_dropped_skb() to
check that the skb is valid, unfortunately under above conditions, the
malicious packet is able to go through can_dev_dropped_skb() checks:
1. the skb->protocol is set to ETH_P_CANXL which is valid (the
function does not check the actual device capabilities).
2. the length is a valid CAN XL length.
And so, hi3110_hard_start_xmit() receives a CAN XL frame which it is
not able to correctly handle and will thus misinterpret it as a CAN
frame. The driver will consume frame->len as-is with no further
checks.
This can result in a buffer overflow later on in hi3110_hw_tx() on
this line:
memcpy(buf + HI3110_FIFO_EXT_DATA_OFF,
frame->data, frame->len);
Here, frame->len corresponds to the flags field of the CAN XL frame.
In our previous example, we set canxl_frame->flags to 0xff. Because
the maximum expected length is 8, a buffer overflow of 247 bytes
occurs!
Populate net_device_ops->ndo_change_mtu() to ensure that the
interface's MTU can not be set to anything bigger than CAN_MTU. By
fixing the root cause, this prevents the buffer overflow.

"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ncan: hi311x: populate ndo_change_mtu() to prevent buffer overflow\n\nSending an PF_PACKET allows to bypass the CAN framework logic and to\ndirectly reach the xmit() function of a CAN driver. The only check\nwhich is performed by the PF_PACKET framework is to make sure that\nskb-\u003elen fits the interface\u0027s MTU.\n\nUnfortunately, because the sun4i_can driver does not populate its\nnet_device_ops-\u003endo_change_mtu(), it is possible for an attacker to\nconfigure an invalid MTU by doing, for example:\n\n $ ip link set can0 mtu 9999\n\nAfter doing so, the attacker could open a PF_PACKET socket using the\nETH_P_CANXL protocol:\n\n\tsocket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, htons(ETH_P_CANXL))\n\nto inject a malicious CAN XL frames. For example:\n\n\tstruct canxl_frame frame = {\n\t\t.flags = 0xff,\n\t\t.len = 2048,\n\t};\n\nThe CAN drivers\u0027 xmit() function are calling can_dev_dropped_skb() to\ncheck that the skb is valid, unfortunately under above conditions, the\nmalicious packet is able to go through can_dev_dropped_skb() checks:\n\n 1. the skb-\u003eprotocol is set to ETH_P_CANXL which is valid (the\n function does not check the actual device capabilities).\n\n 2. the length is a valid CAN XL length.\n\nAnd so, hi3110_hard_start_xmit() receives a CAN XL frame which it is\nnot able to correctly handle and will thus misinterpret it as a CAN\nframe. The driver will consume frame-\u003elen as-is with no further\nchecks.\n\nThis can result in a buffer overflow later on in hi3110_hw_tx() on\nthis line:\n\n\tmemcpy(buf + HI3110_FIFO_EXT_DATA_OFF,\n\t frame-\u003edata, frame-\u003elen);\n\nHere, frame-\u003elen corresponds to the flags field of the CAN XL frame.\nIn our previous example, we set canxl_frame-\u003eflags to 0xff. Because\nthe maximum expected length is 8, a buffer overflow of 247 bytes\noccurs!\n\nPopulate net_device_ops-\u003endo_change_mtu() to ensure that the\ninterface\u0027s MTU can not be set to anything bigger than CAN_MTU. By\nfixing the root cause, this prevents the buffer overflow."

The iMON driver improperly releases the usb_device reference in
imon_disconnect without coordinating with active users of the
device.
Specifically, the fields usbdev_intf0 and usbdev_intf1 are not
protected by the users counter (ictx->users). During probe,
imon_init_intf0 or imon_init_intf1 increments the usb_device
reference count depending on the interface. However, during
disconnect, usb_put_dev is called unconditionally, regardless of
actual usage.
As a result, if vfd_write or other operations are still in
progress after disconnect, this can lead to a use-after-free of
the usb_device pointer.

Guard access to usbdev_intf0 and usbdev_intf1 after disconnect by
checking ictx->disconnected in all writer paths. Add early return
with -ENODEV in send_packet(), vfd_write(), lcd_write() and
display_open() if the device is no longer present.
Set and read ictx->disconnected under ictx->lock to ensure memory
synchronization. Acquire the lock in imon_disconnect() before setting
the flag to synchronize with any ongoing operations.
Ensure writers exit early and safely after disconnect before the USB
core proceeds with cleanup.

The disconnect that frees the `usb_device` is a triggering condition the attacker supplies (their own removable/emulated iMON device or an unplug event), not the attack interface itself.\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides of the race: they drive an unbounded loop of `write()` calls that hold `ictx-\u003elock` for seconds at a time (`send_packet` waits up to 10 s per packet, six packets per write) while triggering device removal, giving an extremely wide and repeatable window.

Title
media: tuner: xc5000: Fix use-after-free in xc5000_release
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: tuner: xc5000: Fix use-after-free in xc5000_release
The original code uses cancel_delayed_work() in xc5000_release(), which
does not guarantee that the delayed work item timer_sleep has fully
completed if it was already running. This leads to use-after-free scenarios
where xc5000_release() may free the xc5000_priv while timer_sleep is still
active and attempts to dereference the xc5000_priv.
A typical race condition is illustrated below:
CPU 0 (release thread) | CPU 1 (delayed work callback)
xc5000_release() | xc5000_do_timer_sleep()
cancel_delayed_work() |
hybrid_tuner_release_state(priv) |
kfree(priv) |
| priv = container_of() // UAF
Replace cancel_delayed_work() with cancel_delayed_work_sync() to ensure
that the timer_sleep is properly canceled before the xc5000_priv memory
is deallocated.
A deadlock concern was considered: xc5000_release() is called in a process
context and is not holding any locks that the timer_sleep work item might
also need. Therefore, the use of the _sync() variant is safe here.
This bug was initially identified through static analysis.

Title
media: i2c: tc358743: Fix use-after-free bugs caused by orphan timer in probe
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: i2c: tc358743: Fix use-after-free bugs caused by orphan timer in probe
The state->timer is a cyclic timer that schedules work_i2c_poll and
delayed_work_enable_hotplug, while rearming itself. Using timer_delete()
fails to guarantee the timer isn't still running when destroyed, similarly
cancel_delayed_work() cannot ensure delayed_work_enable_hotplug has
terminated if already executing. During probe failure after timer
initialization, these may continue running as orphans and reference the
already-freed tc358743_state object through tc358743_irq_poll_timer.
The following is the trace captured by KASAN.

Replace timer_delete() with timer_delete_sync() and cancel_delayed_work()
with cancel_delayed_work_sync() to ensure proper termination of timer and
work items before resource cleanup.
This bug was initially identified through static analysis. For reproduction
and testing, I created a functional emulation of the tc358743 device via a
kernel module and introduced faults through the debugfs interface.

Title
media: b2c2: Fix use-after-free causing by irq_check_work in flexcop_pci_remove
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: b2c2: Fix use-after-free causing by irq_check_work in flexcop_pci_remove
The original code uses cancel_delayed_work() in flexcop_pci_remove(), which
does not guarantee that the delayed work item irq_check_work has fully
completed if it was already running. This leads to use-after-free scenarios
where flexcop_pci_remove() may free the flexcop_device while irq_check_work
is still active and attempts to dereference the device.
A typical race condition is illustrated below:
CPU 0 (remove) | CPU 1 (delayed work callback)
flexcop_pci_remove() | flexcop_pci_irq_check_work()
cancel_delayed_work() |
flexcop_device_kfree(fc_pci->fc_dev) |
| fc = fc_pci->fc_dev; // UAF
This is confirmed by a KASAN report:

Replace cancel_delayed_work() with cancel_delayed_work_sync() to ensure
that the delayed work item is properly canceled and any executing delayed
work has finished before the device memory is deallocated.
This bug was initially identified through static analysis. To reproduce
and test it, I simulated the B2C2 FlexCop PCI device in QEMU and introduced
artificial delays within the flexcop_pci_irq_check_work() function to
increase the likelihood of triggering the bug.

"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmedia: b2c2: Fix use-after-free causing by irq_check_work in flexcop_pci_remove\n\nThe original code uses cancel_delayed_work() in flexcop_pci_remove(), which\ndoes not guarantee that the delayed work item irq_check_work has fully\ncompleted if it was already running. This leads to use-after-free scenarios\nwhere flexcop_pci_remove() may free the flexcop_device while irq_check_work\nis still active and attempts to dereference the device.\n\nA typical race condition is illustrated below:\n\nCPU 0 (remove) | CPU 1 (delayed work callback)\nflexcop_pci_remove() | flexcop_pci_irq_check_work()\n cancel_delayed_work() |\n flexcop_device_kfree(fc_pci-\u003efc_dev) |\n | fc = fc_pci-\u003efc_dev; // UAF\n\nThis is confirmed by a KASAN report:\n\n==================================================================\nBUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __run_timer_base.part.0+0x7d7/0x8c0\nWrite of size 8 at addr ffff8880093aa8c8 by task bash/135\n...\nCall Trace:\n \u003cIRQ\u003e\n dump_stack_lvl+0x55/0x70\n print_report+0xcf/0x610\n ? __run_timer_base.part.0+0x7d7/0x8c0\n kasan_report+0xb8/0xf0\n ? __run_timer_base.part.0+0x7d7/0x8c0\n __run_timer_base.part.0+0x7d7/0x8c0\n ? __pfx___run_timer_base.part.0+0x10/0x10\n ? __pfx_read_tsc+0x10/0x10\n ? ktime_get+0x60/0x140\n ? lapic_next_event+0x11/0x20\n ? clockevents_program_event+0x1d4/0x2a0\n run_timer_softirq+0xd1/0x190\n handle_softirqs+0x16a/0x550\n irq_exit_rcu+0xaf/0xe0\n sysvec_apic_timer_interrupt+0x70/0x80\n \u003c/IRQ\u003e\n...\n\nAllocated by task 1:\n kasan_save_stack+0x24/0x50\n kasan_save_track+0x14/0x30\n __kasan_kmalloc+0x7f/0x90\n __kmalloc_noprof+0x1be/0x460\n flexcop_device_kmalloc+0x54/0xe0\n flexcop_pci_probe+0x1f/0x9d0\n local_pci_probe+0xdc/0x190\n pci_device_probe+0x2fe/0x470\n really_probe+0x1ca/0x5c0\n __driver_probe_device+0x248/0x310\n driver_probe_device+0x44/0x120\n __driver_attach+0xd2/0x310\n bus_for_each_dev+0xed/0x170\n bus_add_driver+0x208/0x500\n driver_register+0x132/0x460\n do_one_initcall+0x89/0x300\n kernel_init_freeable+0x40d/0x720\n kernel_init+0x1a/0x150\n ret_from_fork+0x10c/0x1a0\n ret_from_fork_asm+0x1a/0x30\n\nFreed by task 135:\n kasan_save_stack+0x24/0x50\n kasan_save_track+0x14/0x30\n kasan_save_free_info+0x3a/0x60\n __kasan_slab_free+0x3f/0x50\n kfree+0x137/0x370\n flexcop_device_kfree+0x32/0x50\n pci_device_remove+0xa6/0x1d0\n device_release_driver_internal+0xf8/0x210\n pci_stop_bus_device+0x105/0x150\n pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device_locked+0x15/0x30\n remove_store+0xcc/0xe0\n kernfs_fop_write_iter+0x2c3/0x440\n vfs_write+0x871/0xd70\n ksys_write+0xee/0x1c0\n do_syscall_64+0xac/0x280\n entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f\n...\n\nReplace cancel_delayed_work() with cancel_delayed_work_sync() to ensure\nthat the delayed work item is properly canceled and any executing delayed\nwork has finished before the device memory is deallocated.\n\nThis bug was initially identified through static analysis. To reproduce\nand test it, I simulated the B2C2 FlexCop PCI device in QEMU and introduced\nartificial delays within the flexcop_pci_irq_check_work() function to\nincrease the likelihood of triggering the bug."
