| CVE-2026-89778 | 1 Linux | 1 Linux Kernel | 2026-09-20 | 9.8 Critical |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: isofs: fix out-of-bounds page array access on empty zisofs block zisofs_uncompress_block()'s empty-block fast path returns pcount << PAGE_SHIFT, ignoring the incoming poffset, unlike the decompression path which returns bytes produced relative to poffset. zisofs_fill_pages() uses that return to advance its page cursor, so when the zisofs block size is below PAGE_SIZE and a sub-page block leaves poffset partway into a page, a following empty block over-counts and advances pages[] one element past its end, after which "if (poffset && *pages)" reads pages[1] out of bounds. rock.c only rejects a block-size shift > 17, so a crafted "ZF" Rock Ridge record can set it below PAGE_SHIFT; the bug is reached by an ordinary read() of a compressed file on such a mounted ISO9660 image. Return the byte count relative to poffset and zero only [poffset, PAGE_SIZE) of the first page, matching the decompression path. The page-aligned case (poffset == 0) is unaffected.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/ntfs3: validate ef->size covers the record's name and value When an EA record has a non-zero ef->size, ntfs_read_ea() only checks that the record fits in the remaining buffer (ea_size > bytes), not that ef->size is large enough to hold the record's own name_len + 1 + elength. A crafted image can pass validation with, e.g., ef->size = 24 but elength = 0xffff. ntfs_get_ea() then trusts elength and copies it out of the undersized record, reading past the kmalloc(info->size) allocation and leaking heap memory to userspace via getxattr(): BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ntfs_get_ea (fs/ntfs3/xattr.c:302) Read of size 65535 at addr ffff888100794550 by task exploit __asan_memcpy (mm/kasan/shadow.c:105) ntfs_get_ea (fs/ntfs3/xattr.c:302) ntfs_getxattr (fs/ntfs3/xattr.c:848) __vfs_getxattr (fs/xattr.c:441) vfs_getxattr (fs/xattr.c:474) do_getxattr (fs/xattr.c:800) path_getxattrat (fs/xattr.c:868) do_syscall_64 (arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94) The buggy address is located 80 bytes inside of allocated 84-byte region in cache kmalloc-96 Compute the size the record needs and require ef->size to cover it. | ||||

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/ntfs3: reject restart table growth beyond U16_MAX entries During $LogFile replay, log_replay() indexes the transaction table by the transact_id taken from the log record header. check_log_rec() only verifies that transact_id is non-zero and properly aligned, not its magnitude, so a crafted image can request an arbitrarily large index. alloc_rsttbl_from_idx() grows the table to cover that index via extend_rsttbl(), which passes the new entry count to init_rsttbl(): rt = init_rsttbl(esize, used + add); used + add is computed as u32 but init_rsttbl() takes a u16, and the count is stored in struct RESTART_TABLE as a __le16. When used + add exceeds U16_MAX it is truncated, init_rsttbl() allocates a table far smaller than the index requires, and alloc_rsttbl_from_idx() then dereferences and writes at the original, untruncated offset -- an out-of-bounds access past the allocation, reachable by mounting a crafted NTFS image.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs/ntfs3: fix out-of-bounds read of INDEX_ROOT in reparse/objid init ntfs_reparse_init() and ntfs_objid_init() parse the index root of the $Extend/$Reparse and $Extend/$ObjId metafiles (the INDEX_ROOT attributes named $R and $O). They read its type and rule fields through resident_data(), which does not check that the resident attribute is large enough to hold them. mi_enum_attr() accepts a resident attribute with data_off == asize and data_size == 0. For such an attribute placed last in its MFT record, resident_data() returns a pointer to the end of the record_size buffer, so reading root->type / root->rule reads past the allocation. Use resident_data_ex(attr, sizeof(struct INDEX_ROOT)) and bail out when it returns NULL, as ntfs_security_init() already does for $SDH / $SII. The attribute is only parsed while mounting a crafted image, so this needs CAP_SYS_ADMIN.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: check dir entry fits before reading the hash trailer in ext4_search_dir() For casefolded encrypted directories ext4 stores an 8-byte hash trailer after the name (EXT4_DIRENT_HASHES()), at an offset derived from de->name_len. On the sb_no_casefold_compat_fallback() path ext4_match() reads that trailer, but ext4_search_dir()'s by-hand pre-check only tests de->name + de->name_len <= dlimit, which proves the name fits, not the rounded trailer. A crafted entry whose name ends at the block boundary passes the check while EXT4_DIRENT_HASHES(de) lands past the block end, so ext4_match() reads out of bounds on an ordinary lookup. KASAN reports it as a use-after-free when the page after the directory block holds a freed object: BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ext4_match (fs/ext4/namei.c:1435) Read of size 4 at addr ffff888010458000 by task exploit Call Trace: ext4_match (fs/ext4/namei.c:1435) ext4_search_dir (fs/ext4/namei.c:1470) __ext4_find_entry (fs/ext4/namei.c:1268 fs/ext4/namei.c:1632) ext4_lookup (fs/ext4/namei.c:1703 fs/ext4/namei.c:1769) ... filename_lookup (fs/namei.c:2842) vfs_statx (fs/stat.c:353) __do_sys_newfstatat (fs/stat.c:538) do_syscall_64 (arch/x86/entry/syscall_64.c:94) entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe (arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:121) Require, for hash-in-dirent directories, that the whole entry including the rounded trailer fits before calling ext4_match(). This is the same bound ext4_check_dir_entry() already enforces via ext4_dir_rec_len(), so no well-formed entry is rejected. The other caller, ext4_find_dest_de(), runs ext4_check_dir_entry() first and is unaffected. | ||||
| CVE-2026-90069 | 1 Linux | 1 Linux Kernel | 2026-09-20 | 7.8 High |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: acomp - allocate async request context when cloning ACOMP_REQUEST_ON_STACK() reserves only enough storage for the synchronous fallback. When an async implementation is selected, callers clone that stack request before retrying, but acomp_request_clone() currently copies only the stack-sized object. The clone therefore has no storage for the async provider request context, and providers such as QAT write past the allocation through acomp_request_ctx(). KASAN does report a slab OOB write. Allocate a zeroed clone large enough for the runtime acomp request size, copy only the bytes present in the source object, and preserve the existing fallback-on-allocation-failure behavior. Use the runtime reqsize because an implementation may adjust it during tfm initialization. | ||||

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: act_skbmod: fix length calculations and avoid invalid header warnings syzbot reported a warning in skb_network_header_len() triggered by tcf_skbmod_act(): !skb_transport_header_was_set(skb) WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 14949 at include/linux/skbuff.h:3243 skb_network_header_len include/linux/skbuff.h:3243 [inline] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 14949 at net/sched/act_skbmod.c:55 tcf_skbmod_act+0xfe8/0x1810 net/sched/act_skbmod.c:55 There are a few issues in tcf_skbmod_act(): 1. Calling skb_network_header_len() assumes skb->transport_header is set, which is not guaranteed when tcf_skbmod_act() runs at TC ingress. 2. Unconditionally calling skb_mac_header_len() at the beginning of tcf_skbmod_act() triggers a warning on L3 devices (e.g. TUN) where the MAC header is unset, evaluating to an underflowed garbage length. 3. On TC ingress, skb->data points to the network header. Adding the MAC header length to the IP header length causes skb_ensure_writable() to request more bytes than the actual IP packet length, dropping valid short packets (e.g. 28-byte UDP/IPv4 packets). Fix these by: - Using skb_network_offset(skb) + sizeof(struct iphdr/ipv6hdr) for SKBMOD_F_ECN so that the required length is correctly calculated on both ingress (offset == 0) and egress (offset == mac_len). - Setting max_edit_len to ETH_HLEN for Ethernet header modifications after validating ARPHRD_ETHER. | ||||
| CVE-2026-90137 | 1 Linux | 1 Linux Kernel | 2026-09-20 | 7.7 High |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: platform/x86: hp-bioscfg: fix password encoding bounds check The password PSWD_ENCODINGS parser reads password_obj[elem + pos_values] while copying the supported password encodings from the ACPI package. The outer loop only guarantees that elem is within password_obj_count. The encoding count is bounded by MAX_ENCODINGS_SIZE, but that does not guarantee that the ACPI package contains enough entries for all elem + pos_values accesses. A malformed package can therefore declare a non-zero encoding count without providing enough string objects, causing the parser to read past the ACPI package array and pass an out-of-bounds string pointer and length to hp_convert_hexstr_to_str(). Add the same computed-index bounds check used by the other offset-based package parsing loops before reading password_obj[elem + pos_values]. | ||||
| CVE-2026-90072 | 1 Linux | 1 Linux Kernel | 2026-09-20 | N/A |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: sfq: clamp quantum to avoid signed overflow soft lockup sfq_init() sets q->quantum = psched_mtu(qdisc_dev(sch)) (unsigned). A device with a huge MTU (e.g. dummy with max_mtu == 0 accepting MTU 2147483634) makes psched_mtu() return 0x80000000, so slot->allot = INT_MIN and INT_MIN + INT_MIN toggles between INT_MIN and 0 forever, spinning sfq_dequeue() under the qdisc lock. Clamp the quantum to [256, 1 << 20] so the refill loop terminates. The lower bound also covers q->quantum == 0 (psched_mtu() returning 0), which spins sfq_dequeue() identically. sfq_change() already rejects a negative quantum, so only the init path was exposed. Conditions to recreate the bug: a device whose MTU (plus hard_header_len) wraps psched_mtu() into the sign bit (e.g. a dummy device with max_mtu == 0 accepting MTU 2147483634). Requires CAP_NET_ADMIN in a user namespace. | ||||

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: fq_pie: clamp default quantum to avoid signed overflow fq_pie_init() sets q->quantum = psched_mtu(qdisc_dev(sch)) without clamping. A device with a huge MTU (e.g. dummy with max_mtu == 0 accepting MTU 2147483634) makes psched_mtu() return 0x80000000, which overflows the signed flow->deficit to INT_MIN in fq_pie_qdisc_dequeue(), causing an infinite loop and soft lockup. Emulate fq_pie_policy which is already bounded to [1, 1 << 20]; clamp the default to [256, 1 << 20]. 256 matches fq_codel's floor and is a sane minimum for a DRR quantum. Conditions to recreate the bug: a device whose MTU (plus hard_header_len) wraps psched_mtu() into the sign bit (e.g. a dummy device with max_mtu == 0 accepting MTU 2147483634). Requires CAP_NET_ADMIN in a user namespace. | ||||
| CVE-2026-90100 | 1 Linux | 1 Linux Kernel | 2026-09-20 | N/A |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ptp: netc: fix period truncation and potential divide-by-zero in PEROUT The max_period bound in net_timer_enable_perout() was computed as: max_period = (u64)NETC_TMR_DEFAULT_FIPER + integral_period; which exceeds U32_MAX when integral_period > 0 (e.g. 0x100000002 for the default 333333333 Hz clock). A period_ns that passes this check but exceeds U32_MAX is then silently truncated when stored into the u32 struct netc_pp::period field. A truncated value of zero can reach netc_timer_set_perout_alarm(), where the local u32 period variable would also be 0, causing a divide-by-zero in roundup_u64(delta, period) whenever the stime < min_time branch is taken (which always happens for a start time of {0, 0}). Additionally, netc_timer_enable_periodic_pulse() and netc_timer_enable_fiper() both compute: fiper = pp->period - integral_period; A zero pp->period results in an unsigned wraparound to 0xFFFFFFFD, mis-programming the FIPER hardware register. Fix all three issues by capping max_period at NETC_TMR_DEFAULT_FIPER (0xFFFFFFFF). This ensures that any period_ns passing the range check fits in a u32 without truncation, so the stored value is always valid and non-zero. The accepted range is reduced by integral_period ns (typically only a few nanoseconds), which is negligible in practice. | ||||
| CVE-2026-90145 | 1 Linux | 1 Linux Kernel | 2026-09-20 | 7.1 High |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hinic3: Fix skb linearization mismatch and drop skb when skb_checksum_help() failed Previously, hinic3_send_one_skb() cached the skb fragment count before calling hinic3_tx_offload(). If hinic3_tx_csum() falls back to skb_checksum_help() for unsupported tunnel packets, the skb may be linearized. Continuing to build the TX descriptor with the stale fragment count leads to a descriptor mismatch, which can trigger out-of-bounds DMA reads or IOMMU faults. Furthermore, the old code ignored the return value of skb_checksum_help(), transmitting corrupted packets with incomplete checksums upon failure. Fix this by: 1. Moving the hinic3_tx_offload() call before calculating 'num_sge' to ensure the correct fragment count is used if the SKB is linearized. 2. Propagating skb_checksum_help() errors and returning HINIC3_TX_OFFLOAD_INVALID to properly drop the skb. | ||||
| CVE-2026-69186 | 1 C-ares | 1 C-ares | 2026-09-20 | 5.3 Medium |
| c-ares is an asynchronous resolver library. Prior to 1.34.7, ares_dns_parse() trusts the attacker-controlled ANCOUNT, NSCOUNT, and ARCOUNT fields before confirming that the DNS response contains enough bytes for the claimed records. Because process_answer() invokes parsing before transaction ID and question validation, a malicious DNS response can cause ares_dns_record_rr_prealloc() and ares_array_set_size() to reserve disproportionate heap memory for a tiny message. Repeated responses create large allocation and release cycles that can degrade or deny name resolution, without causing memory corruption or information disclosure. This issue is fixed in version 1.34.7. | ||||
| CVE-2026-90089 | 1 Linux | 1 Linux Kernel | 2026-09-20 | 7.1 High |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: btnxpuart: Validate the FW dump header length nxp_process_fw_dump() pulls the ACL header off the frame and then reads seq_num and buf_len from a struct nxp_fw_dump_hdr placed at skb->data, without checking that the ACL payload is long enough to contain it. h4_recv_buf() collects HCI_ACL_HDR_SIZE bytes of header followed by the number of payload bytes named in that header, so skb->len is 4 + dlen with dlen supplied by the controller and possibly smaller than the 8 byte dump header, or zero. A short frame with connection handle 0xfff therefore reads both fields from beyond the received data. Beyond the read itself, buf_len is what terminates a dump: a value of zero makes the driver call hci_devcd_complete() and reset the controller, so a truncated frame can end a dump early. Use skb_pull_data() to validate and pull the FW dump header before accessing its fields. Warn and reject the chunk if the header is truncated. | ||||
| CVE-2026-90090 | 1 Linux | 1 Linux Kernel | 2026-09-20 | N/A |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: btmtksdio: Fix out-of-bounds DMA read in the TX path btmtksdio_tx_packet() rounds the transfer size up to the SDIO block size of 256 bytes, but hands the host controller the SKB buffer as is: err = sdio_writesb(bdev->func, MTK_REG_CTDR, skb->data, round_up(skb->len, MTK_SDIO_BLOCK_SIZE)); Only skb->len bytes hold packet data, so the controller reads up to 255 bytes of uninitialised memory and sends it to the device over the SDIO bus. Depending on how much tailroom slack the SKB allocation happens to carry, that read can also extend past the end of the buffer. Compute the padded length up front, ensure the SKB has tailroom for it, and zero-fill the padding with skb_put_zero(). skb->len then covers the padding, so sdio_writesb() no longer needs to round up. byte_tx keeps counting the header and the payload only, and the error path restores the SKB so that the caller can requeue it. Writing behind skb->tail is only safe because the driver owns the buffer, which "Bluetooth: btmtksdio: Take exclusive ownership of the SKB before TX" ensures. | ||||
| CVE-2026-93165 | 1 Linux | 1 Linux Kernel | 2026-09-20 | 7.7 High |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: platform/chrome: sensorhub: Fix memory overread in ring handler `max_response` and `sensor_num` are read from different EC commands: - `max_response` is from cros_ec_get_proto_info(). ec_dev->max_response = info->max_response_packet_size - sizeof(struct ec_host_response); - `sensor_num` is from cros_ec_get_sensor_count(). sensor_num = cros_ec_get_sensor_count(ec); With a malfunctioning EC firmware, it is possible that the `msg->insize` (i.e., `fifo_info_length` in the context) could be clamped in cros_ec_cmd_xfer() because `msg->insize` is greater than `max_response`. int fifo_info_length = sizeof(struct ec_response_motion_sense_fifo_info) + sizeof(u16) * sensorhub->sensor_num; This means the number of read bytes could be less than expected. As a result, the subsequent memcpy() in cros_ec_sensorhub_ring_handler() overreads the `resp->fifo_info` buffer. Check the return value of cros_ec_cmd_xfer_status() and abort if the number of bytes read does not match the expected length. | ||||
| CVE-2026-90103 | 1 Linux | 1 Linux Kernel | 2026-09-20 | 7.5 High |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: NFSv4.2: fix LAYOUTSTATS send buffer exhaustion encode_layoutstats_maxsz budgets XDR_QUADLEN(PNFS_LAYOUTSTATS_MAXSIZE), i.e. 256 bytes, for the layoutupdate4 body written by the layout driver. The flexfiles record can exceed that. ff_layout_encode_ff_layoutupdate() emits, per data server, a netaddr4, an nfs_fh4, two ff_io_latency4, an nfstime4 and a bool. A data server whose filehandle is NFS_MAXFHSIZE bytes long already accounts for 132 of those bytes, and the two ff_io_latency4 at 64 bytes each, the nfstime4 and the bool add a further 144, so the body passes 256 bytes before the netaddr4 is encoded at all. encode_layoutstats() additionally writes the deviceid4 and the layoutupdate4 lou_type word, neither of which the macro accounts for. The filehandle and the address are both chosen by the server, through LAYOUTGET and GETDEVICEINFO, so it can drive the encoder past the end of the send buffer. xdr_reserve_space() returns NULL once that happens, and the two ff_layout_encode_io_latency() calls run with dss_info->mirror->lock held, so a NULL return there leaves the lock permanently held. Raise PNFS_LAYOUTSTATS_MAXSIZE to 384 so that the record fits inside the reservation. | ||||
| CVE-2026-90114 | 1 Linux | 1 Linux Kernel | 2026-09-20 | N/A |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: bridge: Reject descending VLAN tunnel ranges A pair of descending VLAN and tunnel IDs can pass the tunnel range span check. The VLAN subtraction produces a negative int, which is converted to unsigned when compared with the u32 tunnel ID subtraction. It can therefore equal the wrapped tunnel ID delta. The range loop then performs no iterations. Since the batched notification handling added a post-loop error check, this leaves err uninitialized and makes the request's return value unpredictable. Reject descending VLAN ranges before comparing the spans. Valid ascending and single-entry ranges remain unchanged, while malformed descending ranges consistently return -EINVAL. This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by manual source review. | ||||

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: llcp: bound SNL TLV parsing to the skb and add length checks nfc_llcp_recv_snl() walked the SNL TLV list using a u16 offset/length pair derived from skb->len, without bounding reads to the actual skb data. Three problems followed: - For a short frame (skb->len < LLCP_HEADER_SIZE), tlv_len underflowed. - The per-TLV header (type, length) was read without checking that two bytes remained. - A declared TLV length could run past the end of the buffer, and an SDREQ with length == 0 made "service_name_len = length - 1" underflow (size_t), driving an out-of-bounds read in the following strncmp() / nfc_llcp_sock_from_sn(). The SDRES case likewise read tlv[2]/tlv[3] without a length check. A nearby NFC device can reach this without authentication; LLCP link activation happens automatically after NFC-DEP. Walk the TLV list by pointer, bounded by skb_tail_pointer() over the linear skb data, and validate each TLV declared length before use. Add explicit length checks for SDREQ (>= 1) and SDRES (exactly 2). Found by 0sec automated security-research tooling (https://0sec.ai). | ||||
| CVE-2026-90133 | 1 Linux | 1 Linux Kernel | 2026-09-20 | 7.8 High |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ntfs: Fix index_root heap OOB write in ntfs_ir_to_ib() ntfs_ir_to_ib copies all entries from index_root into a freshly allocated index_block_size-byte buffer without verifying that the entries fit in the available space. The entries in index_root may be larger than the usable entry space in the index block. This can cause OOB writes past the end of the allocation. The validator ntfs_index_root_inconsistent() checks that entries are self-consistent within the IR value, but never cross-checks them against index_block_size. There is no bounds check in ntfs_ir_to_ib() before the memcpy. Fixing this at the sink in ntfs_ir_to_ib() since ntfs_index_root_inconsistent() validates the logical consistency of index_root as a structure and a root with large entries is a structurally valid root. The bug is a size conflict of ntfs_ir_to_ib(). Also, the validator is called once per inode load in ntfs_read_locked_inode() while ntfs_ir_to_ib() is only called during a reparent, a check there adds no overhead to the common path. Moreover, even a future call path that bypasses the validator would still be protected. With NULL as first parameter of ntfs_error(), the volume error flag is never set by this call, so the device name will be absent from the error message. In any case, that the caller, ntfs_ir_reparent(), prints an error message that includes the device name on NULL returns. I think this is the best solution available without adding 'struct super_block *sb' as a parameter to ntfs_ir_to_ib(). This heap out-of-bounds write is triggered by a crafted filesystem image, which is not in the kernel threat model, anyway, fixing memory errors would be nice to keep things secure. | ||||
