Security Vulnerabilities - CVEs Published In October 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: aoa: i2sbus: fix possible memory leak in i2sbus_add_dev()
dev_set_name() in soundbus_add_one() allocates memory for name, it need be
freed when of_device_register() fails, call soundbus_dev_put() to give up
the reference that hold in device_initialize(), so that it can be freed in
kobject_cleanup() when the refcount hit to 0. And other resources are also
freed in i2sbus_release_dev(), so it can return 0 directly.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kernfs: fix use-after-free in __kernfs_remove
Syzkaller managed to trigger concurrent calls to
kernfs_remove_by_name_ns() for the same file resulting in
a KASAN detected use-after-free. The race occurs when the root
node is freed during kernfs_drain().
To prevent this acquire an additional reference for the root
of the tree that is removed before calling __kernfs_remove().
Found by syzkaller with the following reproducer (slab_nomerge is
required):
syz_mount_image$ext4(0x0, &(0x7f0000000100)='./file0\x00', 0x100000, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0)
r0 = openat(0xffffffffffffff9c, &(0x7f0000000080)='/proc/self/exe\x00', 0x0, 0x0)
close(r0)
pipe2(&(0x7f0000000140)={0xffffffffffffffff, <r1=>0xffffffffffffffff}, 0x800)
mount$9p_fd(0x0, &(0x7f0000000040)='./file0\x00', &(0x7f00000000c0), 0x408, &(0x7f0000000280)={'trans=fd,', {'rfdno', 0x3d, r0}, 0x2c, {'wfdno', 0x3d, r1}, 0x2c, {[{@cache_loose}, {@mmap}, {@loose}, {@loose}, {@mmap}], [{@mask={'mask', 0x3d, '^MAY_EXEC'}}, {@fsmagic={'fsmagic', 0x3d, 0x10001}}, {@dont_hash}]}})

crypto: hisilicon/hpre - fix resource leak in remove process
In hpre_remove(), when the disable operation of qm sriov failed,
the following logic should continue to be executed to release the
remaining resources that have been allocated, instead of returning
directly, otherwise there will be resource leakage.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rpmsg: char: Avoid double destroy of default endpoint
The rpmsg_dev_remove() in rpmsg_core is the place for releasing
this default endpoint.
So need to avoid destroying the default endpoint in
rpmsg_chrdev_eptdev_destroy(), this should be the same as
rpmsg_eptdev_release(). Otherwise there will be double destroy
issue that ept->refcount report warning:
refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.
Call trace:
refcount_warn_saturate+0xf8/0x150
virtio_rpmsg_destroy_ept+0xd4/0xec
rpmsg_dev_remove+0x60/0x70
The issue can be reproduced by stopping remoteproc before
closing the /dev/rpmsgX.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: libsas: Fix use-after-free bug in smp_execute_task_sg()
When executing SMP task failed, the smp_execute_task_sg() calls del_timer()
to delete "slow_task->timer". However, if the timer handler
sas_task_internal_timedout() is running, the del_timer() in
smp_execute_task_sg() will not stop it and a UAF will happen. The process
is shown below:
(thread 1) | (thread 2)
smp_execute_task_sg() | sas_task_internal_timedout()
... |
del_timer() |
... | ...
sas_free_task(task) |
kfree(task->slow_task) //FREE|
| task->slow_task->... //USE
Fix by calling del_timer_sync() in smp_execute_task_sg(), which makes sure
the timer handler have finished before the "task->slow_task" is
deallocated.

The root cause of the problem is that the acpi_operand_object
is freed when acpi_ut_walk_package_tree() fails in
acpi_ut_copy_ipackage_to_ipackage(), lead to repeated release in
acpi_ut_copy_iobject_to_iobject(). The problem was introduced
by "8aa5e56eeb61" commit, this commit is to fix memory leak in
acpi_ut_copy_iobject_to_iobject(), repeatedly adding remove
operation, lead to "acpi_operand_object" used after free.
Fix it by removing acpi_ut_remove_reference() in
acpi_ut_copy_ipackage_to_ipackage(). acpi_ut_copy_ipackage_to_ipackage()
is called to copy an internal package object into another internal
package object, when it fails, the memory of acpi_operand_object
should be freed by the caller.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/fpu: Fix copy_xstate_to_uabi() to copy init states correctly
When an extended state component is not present in fpstate, but in init
state, the function copies from init_fpstate via copy_feature().
But, dynamic states are not present in init_fpstate because of all-zeros
init states. Then retrieving them from init_fpstate will explode like this:

Adjust the 'mask' to zero out the userspace buffer for the features that
are not available both from fpstate and from init_fpstate.
The dynamic features depend on the compacted XSAVE format. Ensure it is
enabled before reading XCOMP_BV in init_fpstate.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: Fix UBSAN shift-out-of-bounds warning
If get_num_sdma_queues or get_num_xgmi_sdma_queues is 0, we end up
doing a shift operation where the number of bits shifted equals
number of bits in the operand. This behaviour is undefined.
Set num_sdma_queues or num_xgmi_sdma_queues to ULLONG_MAX, if the
count is >= number of bits in the operand.

Deserialization of untrusted data in python in pyfory versions 0.12.0 through 0.12.2, or the legacy pyfury versions from 0.1.0 through 0.10.3: allows arbitrary code execution. An application is vulnerable if it reads pyfory serialized data from untrusted sources. An attacker can craft a data stream that selects pickle-fallback serializer during deserialization, leading to the execution of `pickle.loads`, which is vulnerable to remote code execution.
Users are recommended to upgrade to pyfory version 0.12.3 or later, which has removed pickle fallback serializer and thus fixes this issue.
