Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In October 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: tegra: tegra124-emc: Fix potential memory leak
The tegra and tegra needs to be freed in the error handling path, otherwise
it will be leaked.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udf: Do not bother merging very long extents
When merging very long extents we try to push as much length as possible
to the first extent. However this is unnecessarily complicated and not
really worth the trouble. Furthermore there was a bug in the logic
resulting in corrupting extents in the file as syzbot reproducer shows.
So just don't bother with the merging of extents that are too long
together.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: Unregister devlink params in case interface is down
Currently, in case an interface is down, mlx5 driver doesn't
unregister its devlink params, which leads to this WARN[1].
Fix it by unregistering devlink params in that case as well.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ublk: fail to start device if queue setup is interrupted
In ublk_ctrl_start_dev(), if wait_for_completion_interruptible() is
interrupted by signal, queues aren't setup successfully yet, so we
have to fail UBLK_CMD_START_DEV, otherwise kernel oops can be triggered.
Reported by German when working on qemu-storage-deamon which requires
single thread ublk daemon.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
qed: allow sleep in qed_mcp_trace_dump()
By default, qed_mcp_cmd_and_union() delays 10us at a time in a loop
that can run 500K times, so calls to qed_mcp_nvm_rd_cmd()
may block the current thread for over 5s.
We observed thread scheduling delays over 700ms in production,
with stacktraces pointing to this code as the culprit.
qed_mcp_trace_dump() is called from ethtool, so sleeping is permitted.
It already can sleep in qed_mcp_halt(), which calls qed_mcp_cmd().
Add a "can sleep" parameter to qed_find_nvram_image() and
qed_nvram_read() so they can sleep during qed_mcp_trace_dump().
qed_mcp_trace_get_meta_info() and qed_mcp_trace_read_meta(),
called only by qed_mcp_trace_dump(), allow these functions to sleep.
I can't tell if the other caller (qed_grc_dump_mcp_hw_dump()) can sleep,
so keep b_can_sleep set to false when it calls these functions.
An example stacktrace from a custom warning we added to the kernel
showing a thread that has not scheduled despite long needing resched:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: ufs: core: Fix handling of lrbp->cmd
ufshcd_queuecommand() may be called two times in a row for a SCSI command
before it is completed. Hence make the following changes:
- In the functions that submit a command, do not check the old value of
lrbp->cmd nor clear lrbp->cmd in error paths.
- In ufshcd_release_scsi_cmd(), do not clear lrbp->cmd.
See also scsi_send_eh_cmnd().
This commit prevents that the following appears if a command times out:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: vsp1: Replace vb2_is_streaming() with vb2_start_streaming_called()
The vsp1 driver uses the vb2_is_streaming() function in its .buf_queue()
handler to check if the .start_streaming() operation has been called,
and decide whether to just add the buffer to an internal queue, or also
trigger a hardware run. vb2_is_streaming() relies on the vb2_queue
structure's streaming field, which used to be set only after calling the
.start_streaming() operation.
Commit a10b21532574 ("media: vb2: add (un)prepare_streaming queue ops")
changed this, setting the .streaming field in vb2_core_streamon() before
enqueuing buffers to the driver and calling .start_streaming(). This
broke the vsp1 driver which now believes that .start_streaming() has
been called when it hasn't, leading to a crash:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix potential null dereference
The adev->dm.dc pointer can be NULL and dereferenced in amdgpu_dm_fini()
without checking.
Add a NULL pointer check before calling dc_dmub_srv_destroy().
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio_net: Fix error unwinding of XDP initialization
When initializing XDP in virtnet_open(), some rq xdp initialization
may hit an error causing net device open failed. However, previous
rqs have already initialized XDP and enabled NAPI, which is not the
expected behavior. Need to roll back the previous rq initialization
to avoid leaks in error unwinding of init code.
Also extract helper functions of disable and enable queue pairs.
Use newly introduced disable helper function in error unwinding and
virtnet_close. Use enable helper function in virtnet_open.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff888111145800
which belongs to the cache skbuff_small_head of size 640
The buggy address is located 239 bytes inside of
freed 640-byte region [ffff888111145800, ffff888111145a80)
As commit f855691975bb ("xfrm6: Fix the nexthdr offset in
_decode_session6.") showed, xfrm_decode_session was originally intended
only for the receive path. IP6CB(skb)->nhoff is not set during
transmission. Therefore, set the cb field in the skb to 0 before
sending packets.
