OESA-2025-1571

The Linux Kernel, the operating system core itself.

Security Fix(es):

A double-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s NTFS3 subsystem in how a user triggers remount and umount simultaneously. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.(CVE-2022-3238)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ksmbd: fix possible refcount leak in smb2_open()

Reference count of acls will leak when memory allocation fails. Fix this by adding the missing posix_acl_release().(CVE-2023-53061)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

perf/x86/amd/core: Always clear status for idx

The variable 'status' (which contains the unhandled overflow bits) is not being properly masked in some cases, displaying the following warning:

WARNING: CPU: 156 PID: 475601 at arch/x86/events/amd/core.c:972 amd_pmu_v2_handle_irq+0x216/0x270

This seems to be happening because the loop is being continued before the status bit being unset, in case x86_perf_event_set_period() returns 0. This is also causing an inconsistency because the "handled" counter is incremented, but the status bit is not cleaned.

Move the bit cleaning together above, together when the "handled" counter is incremented.(CVE-2023-53073)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/dp_mst: Fix resetting msg rx state after topology removal

If the MST topology is removed during the reception of an MST down reply or MST up request sideband message, the drm_dp_mst_topology_mgr::up_req_recv/down_rep_recv states could be reset from one thread via drm_dp_mst_topology_mgr_set_mst(false), racing with the reading/parsing of the message from another thread via drm_dp_mst_handle_down_rep() or drm_dp_mst_handle_up_req(). The race is possible since the reader/parser doesn't hold any lock while accessing the reception state. This in turn can lead to a memory corruption in the reader/parser as described by commit bd2fccac61b4 ("drm/dp_mst: Fix MST sideband message body length check").

Fix the above by resetting the message reception state if needed before reading/parsing a message. Another solution would be to hold the drm_dp_mst_topology_mgr::lock for the whole duration of the message reception/parsing in drm_dp_mst_handle_down_rep() and drm_dp_mst_handle_up_req(), however this would require a bigger change. Since the fix is also needed for stable, opting for the simpler solution in this patch.(CVE-2024-57876)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: ath11k: fix RCU stall while reaping monitor destination ring

While processing the monitor destination ring, MSDUs are reaped from the link descriptor based on the corresponding buf_id.

However, sometimes the driver cannot obtain a valid buffer corresponding to the buf_id received from the hardware. This causes an infinite loop in the destination processing, resulting in a kernel crash.

kernel log: ath11k_pci 0000:58:00.0: data msdu_pop: invalid buf_id 309 ath11k_pci 0000:58:00.0: data dp_rx_monitor_link_desc_return failed ath11k_pci 0000:58:00.0: data msdu_pop: invalid buf_id 309 ath11k_pci 0000:58:00.0: data dp_rx_monitor_link_desc_return failed

Fix this by skipping the problematic buf_id and reaping the next entry, replacing the break with the next MSDU processing.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

virtiofs: add filesystem context source name check

In certain scenarios, for example, during fuzz testing, the source name may be NULL, which could lead to a kernel panic. Therefore, an extra check for the source name should be added.(CVE-2025-37773)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

This happens when 'clear_inode()' makes an attempt to finalize an underlying JFS inode of unknown type. According to JFS layout description from https://jfs.sourceforge.net/project/pub/jfslayout.pdf, inode types from 5 to 15 are reserved for future extensions and should not be encountered on a valid filesystem. So add an extra check for valid inode type in 'copy_from_dinode()'.(CVE-2025-37925)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ftrace: Add cond_resched() to ftrace_graph_set_hash()

When the kernel contains a large number of functions that can be traced, the loop in ftrace_graph_set_hash() may take a lot of time to execute. This may trigger the softlockup watchdog.

Add cond_resched() within the loop to allow the kernel to remain responsive even when processing a large number of functions.

This matches the cond_resched() that is used in other locations of the code that iterates over all functions that can be traced.(CVE-2025-37940)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

block: fix resource leak in blk_register_queue() error path

When registering a queue fails after blk_mq_sysfs_register() is successful but the function later encounters an error, we need to clean up the blk_mq_sysfs resources.

Add the missing blk_mq_sysfs_unregister() call in the error path to properly clean up these resources and prevent a memory leak.(CVE-2025-37980)
