CVE-2026-72354 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-22 8.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ntfs: avoid stale runlist element dereference in MFT writeback ntfs_write_mft_block() maps each $MFT record through the $MFT data runlist. For sub-folio clusters it looks up a struct runlist_element under ni->runlist.lock, drops the lock, and later uses rl->length and rl->vcn when choosing folio_sz. That pointer is only borrowed from ni->runlist.rl. Concurrent $MFT allocation extension can merge a replacement runlist under the same lock, and ntfs_rl_realloc() can free the old backing array. If that happens between the lookup and the later folio_sz decision, writeback can dereference freed runlist storage. The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order within that path: MFT writeback path: $MFT allocation extension: 1. Look up rl under 1. Extend the $MFT data allocation. ni->runlist.lock. 2. Publish a replacement runlist. 2. Drop ni->runlist.lock. 3. Free the old runlist array. 3. Read rl->length and rl->vcn to choose folio_sz. Compute the remaining run length while ni->runlist.lock is still held, and use that scalar after unlock. This preserves the existing folio sizing decision without carrying a borrowed runlist_element across the lock boundary.

CVE-2026-72369 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-22 7.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: minix: avoid overflow in bitmap block count calculation minix_check_superblock() uses minix_blocks_needed() to verify that the on-disk imap and zmap block counts are large enough for the advertised inode and zone counts. The helper currently performs DIV_ROUND_UP() in unsigned int arithmetic. A Minix v3 image can set s_ninodes or s_zones near UINT_MAX so the addition inside DIV_ROUND_UP() wraps to zero. That makes a zero imap/zmap block count look valid, after which minix_fill_super() can dereference s_imap[0] or s_zmap[0] even though no bitmap buffers were allocated. Impact: mounting a crafted Minix v3 image whose s_ninodes or s_zones is near UINT_MAX makes minix_check_superblock() accept a zero bitmap-block count and minix_fill_super() dereference s_imap[0]/s_zmap[0], panicking the kernel. The divisor is the bitmap capacity in bits, blocksize * 8, which is always a power of two: minix_fill_super() obtains the block size through sb_set_blocksize(), and blk_validate_block_size() rejects any size that is not a power of two. Use DIV_ROUND_UP_POW2(), which divides before adding the round-up term and so cannot overflow for a power-of-two divisor.
CVE-2026-72384 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-22 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: irqchip/ts4800: Fix missing chained handler cleanup on remove The driver installs a chained handler for the parent interrupt during probe using irq_set_chained_handler_and_data(), but the remove function does not clear this handler. This leaves a dangling handler that may be called when the parent interrupt fires after the driver has been removed, potentially accessing freed memory and causing a kernel crash. Additionally, the parent_irq obtained via irq_of_parse_and_map() is not stored, making it inaccessible in the remove function. Moreover, interrupt mappings created during probe are not properly disposed. Fix this by: - Saving parent_irq in probe - Clearing the chained handler with NULL in ts4800_ic_remove() - Disposing all IRQ mappings before domain removal to prevent resource leaks
CVE-2026-72389 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-22 7.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bridge: stp: Fix a potential use-after-free when deleting a bridge The three STP timers are not supposed to be armed while the bridge is administratively down. They are synchronously deactivated when the bridge is put administratively down and the various call sites check for 'IFF_UP' before arming them. This check is missing from br_topology_change_detection() and it is possible to engineer a situation in which the topology change timer is armed while the bridge is administratively down, resulting in a use-after-free [1] when the bridge is deleted. Fix by adding the missing check and for good measures synchronously shutdown the three timers when the bridge is deleted. [1] ODEBUG: free active (active state 0) object: ffff88811662b9b0 object type: timer_list hint: br_topology_change_timer_expired (net/bridge/br_stp_timer.c:120) WARNING: lib/debugobjects.c:629 at debug_print_object+0x1bc/0x450, CPU#9: ip/359
CVE-2026-72390 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-22 7.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: sch_teql: Introduce slaves_lock to avoid race condition and UAF The teql master->slaves singly linked list is not protected against multiple writes. It can be mod'ed concurently from teql_master_xmit(), teql_dequeue(), teql_init() and teql_destroy() without holding any list lock or RCU protection. zdi-disclosures@trendmicro.com has demonstrated that the qdisc is freed after an RCU grace period, but teql_master_xmit() running on another CPU can still hold a stale pointer into the list, resulting in a slab-use-after-free: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in teql_master_xmit+0xf0f/0x16b0 Read of size 8 at addr ffff888013fb0440 by task poc/332 Freed 512-byte region [ffff888013fb0400, ffff888013fb0600) (kmalloc-512) The fix? Add a per-master slaves_lock spinlock that serializes all mutations of master->slaves and the NEXT_SLAVE() links in teql_destroy() and teql_qdisc_init(). teql_master_xmit() also takes the same slaves_lock around those updates. Annotate master->slaves and the per-slave ->next pointer with __rcu and use the appropriate RCU accessors everywhere they are touched: rcu_assign_pointer() on the writer side (under slaves_lock), rcu_dereference_protected() for the writer-side loads (also under slaves_lock), rcu_dereference_bh() for the loads in teql_master_xmit() and rtnl_dereference() for the loads in teql_master_open()/teql_master_mtu(), which run under RTNL. Pair this with rcu_read_lock_bh()/rcu_read_unlock_bh() around the list traversal in teql_master_xmit(), so that readers either observe a fully linked list or are deferred until the in-flight mutation completes. The two early-return paths in teql_master_xmit() are updated to release the RCU-bh read-side critical section before returning, since leaving it held would disable BH on that CPU for good.

CVE-2026-72431 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-22 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: alloc_tag: fix use-after-free in /proc/allocinfo after module unload allocinfo_start() only reinitializes the codetag iterator at position 0. For subsequent reads (position > 0), it reuses cached iterator state from the previous batch. allocinfo_stop() drops mod_lock between read batches, which allows module unload to complete and free the module memory that the cached iterator still references: CPU0 (read) CPU1 (rmmod) ---- ---- allocinfo_start(pos=0) down_read(mod_lock) allocinfo_show() ... allocinfo_stop() up_read(mod_lock) codetag_unload_module() kfree(cmod) release_module_tags() ... free_mod_mem() allocinfo_start(pos=N) down_read(mod_lock) // reuses cached iter, skips re-init allocinfo_show() ct->filename <-- UAF After free_mod_mem() frees the module's .rodata, allocinfo_show() dereferences ct->filename, ct->function which point there. Save the iterator state in allocinfo_next() and resume from it in allocinfo_start() with codetag_next_ct(), which detects module removal via idr_find() returning NULL and skips to the next module.
CVE-2026-74260 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-22 7.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: nf_dup_netdev: add nf_dev_xmit_recursion*() helpers and use them Update nft_dup and nft_fwd to use the nf_dev_xmit_recursion() helpers. This patch also disables BH when transmitting the skb to address a possible migration to different CPU leading to imbalanced decrementation of the recursion counters. This is modeled after Florian Westphal's dev_xmit_recursion*() API available since commit 97cdcf37b57e ("net: place xmit recursion in softnet data") according to its current state in the tree.
CVE-2026-72443 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-22 7.0 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: usb-audio: Kill MIDI 2.0 URBs before freeing endpoints MIDI 2.0 input URBs are started during snd_usb_midi_v2_create(). A later setup failure can still jump to snd_usb_midi_v2_free(), which currently frees each endpoint and its coherent URB buffers without first stopping the submitted URBs. A completion can then dereference the embedded URB context and endpoint state after they have been freed, or try to resubmit from the stale endpoint. This was observed as a KASAN slab-use-after-free in input_urb_complete(). The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order within that path: probe error path: USB completion path: 1. start_input_streams() submits 1. The HCD still owns a input URBs. submitted input URB. 2. A later setup helper returns 2. input_urb_complete() runs an error. with urb->context in ep. 3. snd_usb_midi_v2_free() frees 3. The completion reads ep endpoint storage and URB buffers. state and can requeue URBs. Make the endpoint destructor follow the same teardown ordering used for disconnect when the endpoint has not already been disconnected: publish ep->disconnected, kill the URBs synchronously, and drain the endpoint before freeing URB buffers and endpoint storage. The guard avoids repeating the stop sequence after the normal snd_usb_midi_v2_disconnect_all() path, while still synchronizing the direct MIDI 2.0 create-error free path.

CVE-2026-72463 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-22 9.8 Critical
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xfrm: Fix dev use-after-free in xfrm async resumption xfrm async resumption hold skb->dev refcnt until after transport_finish. However, xfrm_rcv_cb may modify skb->dev to tunnel dev without taking device reference, such as vti_rcv_cb. The subsequent async resumption will decrement the tunnel device's reference count, which lead to uaf of tunnel dev and refcnt leak of orig dev as below: unregister_netdevice: waiting for vti1 to become free. Usage count = -2 Stash the original skb->dev to fix refcnt imbalance. The new skb->dev set by xfrm_rcv_cb can race with device teardown. Extend rcu protection over xfrm_rcv_cb and transport_finish to prevent races.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ieee802154: fix kernel-infoleak in dgram_recvmsg() KMSAN reported a kernel-infoleak in move_addr_to_user(): BUG: KMSAN: kernel-infoleak in instrument_copy_to_user include/linux/instrumented.h:131 [inline] BUG: KMSAN: kernel-infoleak in _inline_copy_to_user include/linux/uaccess.h:205 [inline] BUG: KMSAN: kernel-infoleak in _copy_to_user+0xcc/0x120 lib/usercopy.c:26 instrument_copy_to_user include/linux/instrumented.h:131 [inline] _inline_copy_to_user include/linux/uaccess.h:205 [inline] _copy_to_user+0xcc/0x120 lib/usercopy.c:26 copy_to_user include/linux/uaccess.h:236 [inline] move_addr_to_user+0x2e7/0x440 net/socket.c:302 ____sys_recvmsg+0x232/0x610 net/socket.c:2925 ... Uninit was stored to memory at: ieee802154_addr_to_sa include/net/ieee802154_netdev.h:369 [inline] dgram_recvmsg+0xa09/0xbe0 net/ieee802154/socket.c:739 The issue occurs because the `pan_id` field of `struct ieee802154_addr` is left uninitialized when the address mode is `IEEE802154_ADDR_NONE`. The execution flow is as follows: 1. `__ieee802154_rx_handle_packet()` declares a local `struct ieee802154_hdr hdr` on the stack. 2. `ieee802154_hdr_pull()` calls `ieee802154_hdr_get_addr()` to parse the source and destination addresses into this structure. 3. If the address mode is `IEEE802154_ADDR_NONE`, `ieee802154_hdr_get_addr()` previously only set the `mode` field, leaving the `pan_id` field containing uninitialized stack memory. 4. This uninitialized `pan_id` is later copied into a `struct sockaddr_ieee802154` in `dgram_recvmsg()` via `ieee802154_addr_to_sa()`. 5. Finally, `move_addr_to_user()` copies the socket address structure to user space, leaking the uninitialized bytes. Fix this by using `memset` to zero out the address structure in `ieee802154_hdr_get_addr()` when the mode is `IEEE802154_ADDR_NONE`.
CVE-2026-72447 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-22 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sctp: hold socket lock when dumping endpoints in sctp_diag SCTP_DIAG endpoint dumping was traversing endpoint address lists without holding lock_sock(), while those lists could change concurrently via socket operations (e.g., bindx changes). This creates a race where nla_reserve() counts addresses under RCU protection, but the subsequent copy may see fewer entries, potentially leaking uninitialized memory to userspace. Fix this by: - Taking a reference on each endpoint during hash traversal - Moving socket operations (lock_sock()) outside read_lock_bh() - Serializing address list access during dump - Reworking sctp_for_each_endpoint() to support restart-based traversal with (net, pos) tracking Also: - Add WARN_ON_ONCE() for inconsistent address counts - Fix idiag_states filtering for LISTEN vs association cases - Skip dumping endpoints being freed (ep->base.dead) - Move dump position tracking into iterator, removing cb->args[4] and its comment for sctp_ep_dump()., - Update the comment for cb->args[4] and remove the comment for unused cb->args[5] for sctp_sock_dump(). Note: traversal is restart-based and may re-scan buckets multiple times, but this is acceptable due to small bucket sizes and required to support sleeping-safe callbacks. This issue was reported by Nico Yip (@_cyeaa_) working with TrendAI Zero Day Initiative.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iio: accel: mma8452: handle I2C read error(s) in mma8452_read() Currently, If i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data() fails but mma8452_set_runtime_pm_state() succeeds, mma8452_read() returns 0. As a result, the caller mma8452_read_raw() assumes the read was successful and proceeds to use a buffer containing uninitialized stack memory. Add proper checking of the I2C read return value and propagate errors to the caller.
CVE-2026-72489 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-22 8.4 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: staging: nvec: fix use-after-free in nvec_rx_completed() In nvec_rx_completed(), when an incomplete RX transfer is detected, nvec_msg_free() is called to return the message back to the pool by clearing its 'used' atomic flag. Immediately after this, the code accesses nvec->rx->data[0] to check the message type. Since nvec_msg_free() marks the pool slot as available via atomic_set(), any concurrent or subsequent call to nvec_msg_alloc() could claim that same slot and overwrite its data[] array. Reading nvec->rx->data[0] after freeing the message is therefore a use-after-free. Fix this by saving the message type byte before calling nvec_msg_free(), then using the saved value for the battery quirk check.

Only allocate a new tracker in netdev_watchdog_up() if one is not already present. In dev_watchdog(), ensure we don't release the tracker if the timer was rescheduled either by dev_watchdog() itself or concurrently by netdev_watchdog_up().
CVE-2026-74540 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2026-08-22 8.8 High
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: L2CAP: fix UAF in l2cap_le_connect_rsp l2cap_le_connect_rsp() obtains a channel via __l2cap_get_chan_by_ident() but neither holds a reference nor uses l2cap_chan_hold_unless_zero() before locking and operating on it. A concurrent l2cap_chan_del() triggered by a remote disconnect can free the channel between the lookup and l2cap_chan_lock(), causing a use-after-free. The BR/EDR counterpart l2cap_connect_rsp() and the sibling handler l2cap_le_command_rej() already use l2cap_chan_hold_unless_zero() to safely hold a reference, but l2cap_le_connect_rsp() was left unprotected. Fix by adding l2cap_chan_hold_unless_zero() after the ident lookup and l2cap_chan_put() on the exit path, consistent with other L2CAP response handlers.
