Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In February 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: uvc: fix list double add in uvcg_video_pump
A panic can occur if the endpoint becomes disabled and the
uvcg_video_pump adds the request back to the req_free list after it has
already been queued to the endpoint. The endpoint complete will add the
request back to the req_free list. Invalidate the local request handle
once it's been queued.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio_net: fix xdp_rxq_info bug after suspend/resume
The following sequence currently causes a driver bug warning
when using virtio_net:
# ip link set eth0 up
# echo mem > /sys/power/state (or e.g. # rtcwake -s 10 -m mem)
<resume>
# ip link set eth0 down
Missing register, driver bug
WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 375 at net/core/xdp.c:138 xdp_rxq_info_unreg+0x58/0x60

__dev_change_flags+0xd8/0x210

...
This happens because virtnet_freeze() frees the receive_queue
completely (including struct xdp_rxq_info) but does not call
xdp_rxq_info_unreg(). Similarly, virtnet_restore() sets up the
receive_queue again but does not call xdp_rxq_info_reg().
Actually, parts of virtnet_freeze_down() and virtnet_restore_up()
are almost identical to virtnet_close() and virtnet_open(): only
the calls to xdp_rxq_info_(un)reg() are missing. This means that
we can fix this easily and avoid such problems in the future by
just calling virtnet_close()/open() from the freeze/restore handlers.
Aside from adding the missing xdp_rxq_info calls the only difference
is that the refill work is only cancelled if netif_running(). However,
this should not make any functional difference since the refill work
should only be active if the network interface is actually up.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
afs: Fix dynamic root getattr
The recent patch to make afs_getattr consult the server didn't account
for the pseudo-inodes employed by the dynamic root-type afs superblock
not having a volume or a server to access, and thus an oops occurs if
such a directory is stat'd.
Fix this by checking to see if the vnode->volume pointer actually points
anywhere before following it in afs_getattr().
This can be tested by stat'ing a directory in /afs. It may be
sufficient just to do "ls /afs" and the oops looks something like:

too.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/cm: Fix memory leak in ib_cm_insert_listen
cm_alloc_id_priv() allocates resource for the cm_id_priv. When
cm_init_listen() fails it doesn't free it, leading to memory leak.
Add the missing error unwind.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: tun: unlink NAPI from device on destruction
Syzbot found a race between tun file and device destruction.
NAPIs live in struct tun_file which can get destroyed before
the netdev so we have to del them explicitly. The current
code is missing deleting the NAPI if the queue was detached
first.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm raid: fix KASAN warning in raid5_add_disks
There's a KASAN warning in raid5_add_disk when running the LVM testsuite.
The warning happens in the test
lvconvert-raid-reshape-linear_to_raid6-single-type.sh. We fix the warning
by verifying that rdev->saved_raid_disk is within limits.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm raid: fix accesses beyond end of raid member array
On dm-raid table load (using raid_ctr), dm-raid allocates an array
rs->devs[rs->raid_disks] for the raid device members. rs->raid_disks
is defined by the number of raid metadata and image tupples passed
into the target's constructor.
In the case of RAID layout changes being requested, that number can be
different from the current number of members for existing raid sets as
defined in their superblocks. Example RAID layout changes include:
- raid1 legs being added/removed
- raid4/5/6/10 number of stripes changed (stripe reshaping)
- takeover to higher raid level (e.g. raid5 -> raid6)
When accessing array members, rs->raid_disks must be used in control
loops instead of the potentially larger value in rs->md.raid_disks.
Otherwise it will cause memory access beyond the end of the rs->devs
array.
Fix this by changing code that is prone to out-of-bounds access.
Also fix validate_raid_redundancy() to validate all devices that are
added. Also, use braces to help clean up raid_iterate_devices().
The out-of-bounds memory accesses was discovered using KASAN.
This commit was verified to pass all LVM2 RAID tests (with KASAN
enabled).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tick/nohz: unexport __init-annotated tick_nohz_full_setup()
EXPORT_SYMBOL and __init is a bad combination because the .init.text
section is freed up after the initialization. Hence, modules cannot
use symbols annotated __init. The access to a freed symbol may end up
with kernel panic.
modpost used to detect it, but it had been broken for a decade.
Commit 28438794aba4 ("modpost: fix section mismatch check for exported
init/exit sections") fixed it so modpost started to warn it again, then
this showed up:
MODPOST vmlinux.symvers
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(___ksymtab_gpl+tick_nohz_full_setup+0x0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable __ksymtab_tick_nohz_full_setup to the function .init.text:tick_nohz_full_setup()
The symbol tick_nohz_full_setup is exported and annotated __init
Fix this by removing the __init annotation of tick_nohz_full_setup or drop the export.
Drop the export because tick_nohz_full_setup() is only called from the
built-in code in kernel/sched/isolation.c.
