Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In July 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: imx: Fix an out-of-bounds access in dispmix_csr_clk_dev_data
When num_parents is 4, __clk_register() occurs an out-of-bounds
when accessing parent_names member. Use ARRAY_SIZE() instead of
hardcode number here.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/rmap: fix potential out-of-bounds page table access during batched unmap
As pointed out by David[1], the batched unmap logic in
try_to_unmap_one() may read past the end of a PTE table when a large
folio's PTE mappings are not fully contained within a single page
table.
While this scenario might be rare, an issue triggerable from userspace
must be fixed regardless of its likelihood. This patch fixes the
out-of-bounds access by refactoring the logic into a new helper,
folio_unmap_pte_batch().
The new helper correctly calculates the safe batch size by capping the
scan at both the VMA and PMD boundaries. To simplify the code, it also
supports partial batching (i.e., any number of pages from 1 up to the
calculated safe maximum), as there is no strong reason to special-case
for fully mapped folios.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: u_serial: Fix race condition in TTY wakeup
A race condition occurs when gs_start_io() calls either gs_start_rx() or
gs_start_tx(), as those functions briefly drop the port_lock for
usb_ep_queue(). This allows gs_close() and gserial_disconnect() to clear
port.tty and port_usb, respectively.
Use the null-safe TTY Port helper function to wake up TTY.
Example
CPU1: CPU2:
gserial_connect() // lock
gs_close() // await lock
gs_start_rx() // unlock
usb_ep_queue()
gs_close() // lock, reset port.tty and unlock
gs_start_rx() // lock
tty_wakeup() // NPE
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/gem: Acquire references on GEM handles for framebuffers
A GEM handle can be released while the GEM buffer object is attached
to a DRM framebuffer. This leads to the release of the dma-buf backing
the buffer object, if any. [1] Trying to use the framebuffer in further
mode-setting operations leads to a segmentation fault. Most easily
happens with driver that use shadow planes for vmap-ing the dma-buf
during a page flip. An example is shown below.

Acquiring GEM handles for the framebuffer's GEM buffer objects prevents
this from happening. The framebuffer's cleanup later puts the handle
references.
Commit 1a148af06000 ("drm/gem-shmem: Use dma_buf from GEM object
instance") triggers the segmentation fault easily by using the dma-buf
field more widely. The underlying issue with reference counting has
been present before.
v2:
- acquire the handle instead of the BO (Christian)
- fix comment style (Christian)
- drop the Fixes tag (Christian)
- rename err_ gotos
- add missing Link tag
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7925: prevent NULL pointer dereference in mt7925_sta_set_decap_offload()
Add a NULL check for msta->vif before accessing its members to prevent
a kernel panic in AP mode deployment. This also fix the issue reported
in [1].
The crash occurs when this function is triggered before the station is
fully initialized. The call trace shows a page fault at
mt7925_sta_set_decap_offload() due to accessing resources when msta->vif
is NULL.
Fix this by adding an early return if msta->vif is NULL and also check
wcid.sta is ready. This ensures we only proceed with decap offload
configuration when the station's state is properly initialized.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/md-bitmap: fix GPF in bitmap_get_stats()
The commit message of commit 6ec1f0239485 ("md/md-bitmap: fix stats
collection for external bitmaps") states:
Remove the external bitmap check as the statistics should be
available regardless of bitmap storage location.
Return -EINVAL only for invalid bitmap with no storage (neither in
superblock nor in external file).
But, the code does not adhere to the above, as it does only check for
a valid super-block for "internal" bitmaps. Hence, we observe:
Oops: GPF, probably for non-canonical address 0x1cd66f1f40000028

which is supposed to be safe with how requests are allocated. But msg
ring requests alloc and free on their own, and hence must defer freeing
to a sane time.
Add an rcu_head and use kfree_rcu() in both spots where requests are
freed. Only the one in io_msg_tw_complete() is strictly required as it
has been visible on the other ring, but use it consistently in the other
spot as well.
This should not cause any other issues outside of KASAN rightfully
complaining about it.
