Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In June 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: zynq: Fix refcount leak in zynq_get_revision
of_find_compatible_node() returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when done.
Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ARM: OMAP2+: Fix refcount leak in omapdss_init_of
omapdss_find_dss_of_node() calls of_find_compatible_node() to get device
node. of_find_compatible_node() returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when done.
Add missing of_node_put() in later error path and normal path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
selinux: Add boundary check in put_entry()
Just like next_entry(), boundary check is necessary to prevent memory
out-of-bound access.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
selinux: fix memleak in security_read_state_kernel()
In this function, it directly returns the result of __security_read_policy
without freeing the allocated memory in *data, cause memory leak issue,
so free the memory if __security_read_policy failed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PM: hibernate: defer device probing when resuming from hibernation
syzbot is reporting hung task at misc_open() [1], for there is a race
window of AB-BA deadlock which involves probe_count variable. Currently
wait_for_device_probe() from snapshot_open() from misc_open() can sleep
forever with misc_mtx held if probe_count cannot become 0.
When a device is probed by hub_event() work function, probe_count is
incremented before the probe function starts, and probe_count is
decremented after the probe function completed.
There are three cases that can prevent probe_count from dropping to 0.
(a) A device being probed stopped responding (i.e. broken/malicious
hardware).
(b) A process emulating a USB device using /dev/raw-gadget interface
stopped responding for some reason.
(c) New device probe requests keeps coming in before existing device
probe requests complete.
The phenomenon syzbot is reporting is (b). A process which is holding
system_transition_mutex and misc_mtx is waiting for probe_count to become
0 inside wait_for_device_probe(), but the probe function which is called
from hub_event() work function is waiting for the processes which are
blocked at mutex_lock(&misc_mtx) to respond via /dev/raw-gadget interface.
This patch mitigates (b) by deferring wait_for_device_probe() from
snapshot_open() to snapshot_write() and snapshot_ioctl(). Please note that
the possibility of (b) remains as long as any thread which is emulating a
USB device via /dev/raw-gadget interface can be blocked by uninterruptible
blocking operations (e.g. mutex_lock()).
Please also note that (a) and (c) are not addressed. Regarding (c), we
should change the code to wait for only one device which contains the
image for resuming from hibernation. I don't know how to address (a), for
use of timeout for wait_for_device_probe() might result in loss of user
data in the image. Maybe we should require the userland to wait for the
image device before opening /dev/snapshot interface.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/radeon: fix potential buffer overflow in ni_set_mc_special_registers()
The last case label can write two buffers 'mc_reg_address[j]' and
'mc_data[j]' with 'j' offset equal to SMC_NISLANDS_MC_REGISTER_ARRAY_SIZE
since there are no checks for this value in both case labels after the
last 'j++'.
Instead of changing '>' to '>=' there, add the bounds check at the start
of the second 'case' (the first one already has it).
Also, remove redundant last checks for 'j' index bigger than array size.
The expression is always false. Moreover, before or after the patch
'table->last' can be equal to SMC_NISLANDS_MC_REGISTER_ARRAY_SIZE and it
seems it can be a valid value.
Detected using the static analysis tool - Svace.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ath11k: fix missing skb drop on htc_tx_completion error
On htc_tx_completion error the skb is not dropped. This is wrong since
the completion_handler logic expect the skb to be consumed anyway even
when an error is triggered. Not freeing the skb on error is a memory
leak since the skb won't be freed anywere else. Correctly free the
packet on eid >= ATH11K_HTC_EP_COUNT before returning.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ath11k: fix netdev open race
Make sure to allocate resources needed before registering the device.
This specifically avoids having a racing open() trigger a BUG_ON() in
mod_timer() when ath11k_mac_op_start() is called before the
mon_reap_timer as been set up.
I did not see this issue with next-20220310, but I hit it on every probe
with next-20220511. Perhaps some timing changed in between.
