Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In October 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: codec: sma1307: Fix memory corruption in sma1307_setting_loaded()
The sma1307->set.header_size is how many integers are in the header
(there are 8 of them) but instead of allocating space of 8 integers
we allocate 8 bytes. This leads to memory corruption when we copy data
it on the next line:
memcpy(sma1307->set.header, data,
sma1307->set.header_size * sizeof(int));
Also since we're immediately copying over the memory in ->set.header,
there is no need to zero it in the allocator. Use devm_kmalloc_array()
to allocate the memory instead.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: ccp - Always pass in an error pointer to __sev_platform_shutdown_locked()
When
9770b428b1a2 ("crypto: ccp - Move dev_info/err messages for SEV/SNP init and shutdown")
moved the error messages dumping so that they don't need to be issued by
the callers, it missed the case where __sev_firmware_shutdown() calls
__sev_platform_shutdown_locked() with a NULL argument which leads to
a NULL ptr deref on the shutdown path, during suspend to disk:

With that addressed, suspending the ccp shows the error properly at
least:

Btw, this driver is crying to be cleaned up to pass in a proper I/O
struct which can be used to store information between the different
functions, otherwise stuff like that will happen in the future again.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: rfkill: gpio: Fix crash due to dereferencering uninitialized pointer
Since commit 7d5e9737efda ("net: rfkill: gpio: get the name and type from
device property") rfkill_find_type() gets called with the possibly
uninitialized "const char *type_name;" local variable.
On x86 systems when rfkill-gpio binds to a "BCM4752" or "LNV4752"
acpi_device, the rfkill->type is set based on the ACPI acpi_device_id:
rfkill->type = (unsigned)id->driver_data;
and there is no "type" property so device_property_read_string() will fail
and leave type_name uninitialized, leading to a potential crash.
rfkill_find_type() does accept a NULL pointer, fix the potential crash
by initializing type_name to NULL.
Note likely sofar this has not been caught because:
1. Not many x86 machines actually have a "BCM4752"/"LNV4752" acpi_device
2. The stack happened to contain NULL where type_name is stored

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: qcom: q6apm-lpass-dais: Fix NULL pointer dereference if source graph failed
If earlier opening of source graph fails (e.g. ADSP rejects due to
incorrect audioreach topology), the graph is closed and
"dai_data->graph[dai->id]" is assigned NULL. Preparing the DAI for sink
graph continues though and next call to q6apm_lpass_dai_prepare()
receives dai_data->graph[dai->id]=NULL leading to NULL pointer
exception:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/s390: Fix memory corruption when using identity domain
zpci_get_iommu_ctrs() returns counter information to be reported as part
of device statistics; these counters are stored as part of the s390_domain.
The problem, however, is that the identity domain is not backed by an
s390_domain and so the conversion via to_s390_domain() yields a bad address
that is zero'd initially and read on-demand later via a sysfs read.
These counters aren't necessary for the identity domain; just return NULL
in this case.
This issue was discovered via KASAN with reports that look like:
BUG: KASAN: global-out-of-bounds in zpci_fmb_enable_device
when using the identity domain for a device on s390.

dm-stripe: fix a possible integer overflow
There's a possible integer overflow in stripe_io_hints if we have too
large chunk size. Test if the overflow happened, and if it did, don't set
limits->io_min and limits->io_opt;

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: af_alg - Set merge to zero early in af_alg_sendmsg
If an error causes af_alg_sendmsg to abort, ctx->merge may contain
a garbage value from the previous loop. This may then trigger a
crash on the next entry into af_alg_sendmsg when it attempts to do
a merge that can't be done.
Fix this by setting ctx->merge to zero near the start of the loop.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: let smbd_destroy() call disable_work_sync(&info->post_send_credits_work)
In smbd_destroy() we may destroy the memory so we better
wait until post_send_credits_work is no longer pending
and will never be started again.
I actually just hit the case using rxe:

It means rxe_post_recv was called after rdma_destroy_qp().
This happened because put_receive_buffer() was triggered
by ib_drain_qp() and called:
queue_work(info->workqueue, &info->post_send_credits_work);

The GiveWP – Donation Plugin and Fundraising Platform plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to unauthorized modification of data due to a missing capability check on the `registerAssociateFormsWithCampaign` function in all versions up to, and including, 4.10.0. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to associate any donation forms with any campaign.
