In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: st: Fix array overflow in st_setup()
Change the array size to follow parms size instead of a fixed value.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/jfs: Prevent integer overflow in AG size calculation
The JFS filesystem calculates allocation group (AG) size using 1 <<
l2agsize in dbExtendFS(). When l2agsize exceeds 31 (possible with >2TB
aggregates on 32-bit systems), this 32-bit shift operation causes undefined
behavior and improper AG sizing.
On 32-bit architectures:
- Left-shifting 1 by 32+ bits results in 0 due to integer overflow
- This creates invalid AG sizes (0 or garbage values) in
sbi->bmap->db_agsize
- Subsequent block allocations would reference invalid AG structures
- Could lead to:
- Filesystem corruption during extend operations
- Kernel crashes due to invalid memory accesses
- Security vulnerabilities via malformed on-disk structures
Fix by casting to s64 before shifting:
bmp->db_agsize = (s64)1 << l2agsize;
This ensures 64-bit arithmetic even on 32-bit architectures. The cast
matches the data type of db_agsize (s64) and follows similar patterns in
JFS block calculation code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
page_pool: avoid infinite loop to schedule delayed worker
We noticed the kworker in page_pool_release_retry() was waken
up repeatedly and infinitely in production because of the
buggy driver causing the inflight less than 0 and warning
us in page_pool_inflight()[1].
Since the inflight value goes negative, it means we should
not expect the whole page_pool to get back to work normally.
This patch mitigates the adverse effect by not rescheduling
the kworker when detecting the inflight negative in
page_pool_release_retry().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: Fix reference leak in pci_register_host_bridge()
If device_register() fails, call put_device() to give up the reference to
avoid a memory leak, per the comment at device_register().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jbd2: remove wrong sb->s_sequence check
Journal emptiness is not determined by sb->s_sequence == 0 but rather by
sb->s_start == 0 (which is set a few lines above). Furthermore 0 is a
valid transaction ID so the check can spuriously trigger. Remove the
invalid WARN_ON.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: scpi: Fix null-ptr-deref in scpi_cpufreq_get_rate()
cpufreq_cpu_get_raw() can return NULL when the target CPU is not present
in the policy->cpus mask. scpi_cpufreq_get_rate() does not check for
this case, which results in a NULL pointer dereference.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: scmi: Fix null-ptr-deref in scmi_cpufreq_get_rate()
cpufreq_cpu_get_raw() can return NULL when the target CPU is not present
in the policy->cpus mask. scmi_cpufreq_get_rate() does not check for
this case, which results in a NULL pointer dereference.
Add NULL check after cpufreq_cpu_get_raw() to prevent this issue.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
LoongArch: Return NULL from huge_pte_offset() for invalid PMD
LoongArch's huge_pte_offset() currently returns a pointer to a PMD slot
even if the underlying entry points to invalid_pte_table (indicating no
mapping). Callers like smaps_hugetlb_range() fetch this invalid entry
value (the address of invalid_pte_table) via this pointer.
The generic is_swap_pte() check then incorrectly identifies this address
as a swap entry on LoongArch, because it satisfies the "!pte_present()
&& !pte_none()" conditions. This misinterpretation, combined with a
coincidental match by is_migration_entry() on the address bits, leads to
kernel crashes in pfn_swap_entry_to_page().
Fix this at the architecture level by modifying huge_pte_offset() to
check the PMD entry's content using pmd_none() before returning. If the
entry is invalid (i.e., it points to invalid_pte_table), return NULL
instead of the pointer to the slot.
