Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In August 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: ti: j721e-csi2rx: fix list_del corruption
If ti_csi2rx_start_dma() fails in ti_csi2rx_dma_callback(), the buffer is
marked done with VB2_BUF_STATE_ERROR but is not removed from the DMA queue.
This causes the same buffer to be retried in the next iteration, resulting
in a double list_del() and eventual list corruption.
Fix this by removing the buffer from the queue before calling
vb2_buffer_done() on error.
This resolves a crash due to list_del corruption:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
zloop: fix KASAN use-after-free of tag set
When a zoned loop device, or zloop device, is removed, KASAN enabled
kernel reports "BUG KASAN use-after-free" in blk_mq_free_tag_set(). The
BUG happens because zloop_ctl_remove() calls put_disk(), which invokes
zloop_free_disk(). The zloop_free_disk() frees the memory allocated for
the zlo pointer. However, after the memory is freed, zloop_ctl_remove()
calls blk_mq_free_tag_set(&zlo->tag_set), which accesses the freed zlo.
Hence the KASAN use-after-free.
zloop_ctl_remove()
put_disk(zlo->disk)
put_device()
kobject_put()
...
zloop_free_disk()
kvfree(zlo)
blk_mq_free_tag_set(&zlo->tag_set)
To avoid the BUG, move the call to blk_mq_free_tag_set(&zlo->tag_set)
from zloop_ctl_remove() into zloop_free_disk(). This ensures that
the tag_set is freed before the call to kvfree(zlo).

protect rdev won't be released, but rdev->mddev will be set to NULL

using READ_ONCE and check does rdev->mddev still alive.

To trigger gso segment in udp_queue_rcv_skb(), we should also set option
UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP to enable udp_sk(sk)->encap_rcv. When the encap_rcv
hook return 1 in udp_queue_rcv_one_skb(), udp_csum_pull_header() will try
to pull udphdr, but the skb size has been segmented to gso size, which
leads to this crash.
Previous commit cf329aa42b66 ("udp: cope with UDP GRO packet misdirection")
introduces segmentation in UDP receive path only for GRO, which was never
intended to be used for UFO, so drop UFO packets in udp_rcv_segment().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: pnv_php: Fix surprise plug detection and recovery
The existing PowerNV hotplug code did not handle surprise plug events
correctly, leading to a complete failure of the hotplug system after device
removal and a required reboot to detect new devices.
This comes down to two issues:
1) When a device is surprise removed, often the bridge upstream
port will cause a PE freeze on the PHB. If this freeze is not
cleared, the MSI interrupts from the bridge hotplug notification
logic will not be received by the kernel, stalling all plug events
on all slots associated with the PE.
2) When a device is removed from a slot, regardless of surprise or
programmatic removal, the associated PHB/PE ls left frozen.
If this freeze is not cleared via a fundamental reset, skiboot
is unable to clear the freeze and cannot retrain / rescan the
slot. This also requires a reboot to clear the freeze and redetect
the device in the slot.
Issue the appropriate unfreeze and rescan commands on hotplug events,
and don't oops on hotplug if pci_bus_to_OF_node() returns NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: pnv_php: Clean up allocated IRQs on unplug
When the root of a nested PCIe bridge configuration is unplugged, the
pnv_php driver leaked the allocated IRQ resources for the child bridges'
hotplug event notifications, resulting in a panic.
Fix this by walking all child buses and deallocating all its IRQ resources
before calling pci_hp_remove_devices().
Also modify the lifetime of the workqueue at struct pnv_php_slot::wq so
that it is only destroyed in pnv_php_free_slot(), instead of
pnv_php_disable_irq(). This is required since pnv_php_disable_irq() will
now be called by workers triggered by hot unplug interrupts, so the
workqueue needs to stay allocated.
The abridged kernel panic that occurs without this patch is as follows:
