Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In May 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Fix out-of-bound memcpy() during ethtool -w
When retrieving the FW coredump using ethtool, it can sometimes cause
memory corruption:
BUG: KFENCE: memory corruption in __bnxt_get_coredump+0x3ef/0x670 [bnxt_en]
Corrupted memory at 0x000000008f0f30e8 [ ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ] (in kfence-#45):
__bnxt_get_coredump+0x3ef/0x670 [bnxt_en]

do_syscall_64+0x5c/0xf0
entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x78/0x80
...
This happens when copying the coredump segment list in
bnxt_hwrm_dbg_dma_data() with the HWRM_DBG_COREDUMP_LIST FW command.
The info->dest_buf buffer is allocated based on the number of coredump
segments returned by the FW. The segment list is then DMA'ed by
the FW and the length of the DMA is returned by FW. The driver then
copies this DMA'ed segment list to info->dest_buf.
In some cases, this DMA length may exceed the info->dest_buf length
and cause the above BUG condition. Fix it by capping the copy
length to not exceed the length of info->dest_buf. The extra
DMA data contains no useful information.
This code path is shared for the HWRM_DBG_COREDUMP_LIST and the
HWRM_DBG_COREDUMP_RETRIEVE FW commands. The buffering is different
for these 2 FW commands. To simplify the logic, we need to move
the line to adjust the buffer length for HWRM_DBG_COREDUMP_RETRIEVE
up, so that the new check to cap the copy length will work for both
commands.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: Check VF VSI Pointer Value in ice_vc_add_fdir_fltr()
As mentioned in the commit baeb705fd6a7 ("ice: always check VF VSI
pointer values"), we need to perform a null pointer check on the return
value of ice_get_vf_vsi() before using it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net_sched: qfq: Fix double list add in class with netem as child qdisc
As described in Gerrard's report [1], there are use cases where a netem
child qdisc will make the parent qdisc's enqueue callback reentrant.
In the case of qfq, there won't be a UAF, but the code will add the same
classifier to the list twice, which will cause memory corruption.
This patch checks whether the class was already added to the agg->active
list (cl_is_active) before doing the addition to cater for the reentrant
case.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: plfxlc: Remove erroneous assert in plfxlc_mac_release
plfxlc_mac_release() asserts that mac->lock is held. This assertion is
incorrect, because even if it was possible, it would not be the valid
behaviour. The function is used when probe fails or after the device is
disconnected. In both cases mac->lock can not be held as the driver is
not working with the device at the moment. All functions that use mac->lock
unlock it just after it was held. There is also no need to hold mac->lock
for plfxlc_mac_release() itself, as mac data is not affected, except for
mac->flags, which is modified atomically.
This bug leads to the following warning:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc64/ftrace: fix module loading without patchable function entries
get_stubs_size assumes that there must always be at least one patchable
function entry, which is not always the case (modules that export data
but no code), otherwise it returns -ENOEXEC and thus the section header
sh_size is set to that value. During module_memory_alloc() the size is
passed to execmem_alloc() after being page-aligned and thus set to zero
which will cause it to fail the allocation (and thus module loading) as
__vmalloc_node_range() checks for zero-sized allocs and returns null:
[ 115.466896] module_64: cast_common: doesn't contain __patchable_function_entries.
[ 115.469189] ------------[ cut here ]------------

[ 115.478574] ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---
[ 115.479545] execmem: unable to allocate memory
Fix this by removing the check completely, since it is anyway not
helpful to propagate this as an error upwards.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix use-after-free in session logoff
The sess->user object can currently be in use by another thread, for
example if another connection has sent a session setup request to
bind to the session being free'd. The handler for that connection could
be in the smb2_sess_setup function which makes use of sess->user.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu: Fix two issues in iommu_copy_struct_from_user()
In the review for iommu_copy_struct_to_user() helper, Matt pointed out that
a NULL pointer should be rejected prior to dereferencing it:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/86881827-8E2D-461C-BDA3-FA8FD14C343C@nvidia.com
And Alok pointed out a typo at the same time:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/480536af-6830-43ce-a327-adbd13dc3f1d@oracle.com
Since both issues were copied from iommu_copy_struct_from_user(), fix them
first in the current header.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
irqchip/qcom-mpm: Prevent crash when trying to handle non-wake GPIOs
On Qualcomm chipsets not all GPIOs are wakeup capable. Those GPIOs do not
have a corresponding MPM pin and should not be handled inside the MPM
driver. The IRQ domain hierarchy is always applied, so it's required to
explicitly disconnect the hierarchy for those. The pinctrl-msm driver marks
these with GPIO_NO_WAKE_IRQ. qcom-pdc has a check for this, but
irq-qcom-mpm is currently missing the check. This is causing crashes when
setting up interrupts for non-wake GPIOs:
root@rb1:~# gpiomon -c gpiochip1 10
irq: IRQ159: trimming hierarchy from :soc@0:interrupt-controller@f200000-1

Fix this by copying the check for GPIO_NO_WAKE_IRQ from qcom-pdc.c, so that
MPM is removed entirely from the hierarchy for non-wake GPIOs.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix slab-use-after-free in hdcp
The HDCP code in amdgpu_dm_hdcp.c copies pointers to amdgpu_dm_connector
objects without incrementing the kref reference counts. When using a
USB-C dock, and the dock is unplugged, the corresponding
amdgpu_dm_connector objects are freed, creating dangling pointers in the
HDCP code. When the dock is plugged back, the dangling pointers are
dereferenced, resulting in a slab-use-after-free:
