| Issue summary: The first concurrent use of the same X.509 certificate by
several threads may cause its cached extension data to be freed while
another thread is still using it.
Impact summary: A remote, unauthenticated peer could crash a multi-threaded
TLS client, or a multi-threaded TLS server that requests client
certificates, if the first certificate chains built to the same trusted CA
certificate are built by several connections at the same time. This is a
use-after-free read, which is likely to crash the process, resulting in a
Denial of Service.
CWE: CWE-416: Use After Free
Description: OpenSSL caches the decoded values of a certificate's X.509v3
extensions inside the X509 object the first time they are needed. In
OpenSSL 4.0 this cache is built in two phases: the extension values are
computed while holding a read lock on the certificate, and the results are
then installed into the certificate under a write lock. Because a read lock
does not exclude other readers, several threads can compute the cache for
the same certificate at the same time. Each thread that subsequently
acquires the write lock installs its own results and frees the values
installed by the thread before it, even though that earlier thread has
already marked the cache as complete and may have returned pointers into it
to its caller. A caller still using those pointers then reads freed memory.
Any certificate shared between threads is exposed the first time its
extensions are decoded. In TLS the certificates at risk are the trusted CA
certificates supplied for chain verification, by whatever means, since these
are shared by every connection and their extensions are decoded and cached
the first time a chain is built to them. Certificates sent by the peer are
decoded separately for each connection and are not shared, so they are not
affected. In a TLS client verifying server certificates, or a TLS server
that requests and verifies client certificates, the use-after-free could
only occur if the first chains built to the same trusted CA are built by
several connections at the same time.
FIPS impact: no
The FIPS module is not affected as X.509 certificate handling is outside
of the OpenSSL FIPS module boundary.
OpenSSL 4.0 is vulnerable to this issue.
OpenSSL 3.6, 3.5, 3.4, 3.0, 1.1.1 and 1.0.2 are not affected by this issue.
OpenSSL 4.0 users should upgrade to OpenSSL 4.0.3.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Preserve inner map identity in callback frames
Callback frame constructors initialize map-typed argument registers with
__mark_reg_known_zero() and then restore map_ptr. This clears map_uid,
which is the only field distinguishing inner maps that share an
inner_map_meta template.
When a timer callback invokes bpf_for_each_map_elem() on a second inner
map, both the saved first map and the second map value can reach the nested
callback as the same template with map_uid zero. bpf_timer_init() then
accepts pairing the timer from the second map with the first map.
The runtime records the first map in the timer without taking a reference.
Freeing that map does not find the timer stored in the second map, so a
later timer callback dereferences the freed map.
Copy map_uid from the same caller register as map_ptr when constructing
for-each, timer/workqueue, and task-work callback arguments. The existing
identity check can then reject mismatched inner maps while allowing a
callback value to be paired with its actual map. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
afs: Clear stale peer app data after address list changes
afs_fs_probe_fileserver() fetches the current endpoint state under
server->fs_lock, but leaves old_alist as NULL. Consequently,
afs_set_peer_appdata() treats every address list replacement as initial
setup and only binds the new peers; it never unbinds peers removed from
the old list.
An address refresh can therefore proceed as follows. CPU 0 replaces
server S's list and drops Pold without clearing Pold->app_data. The
server destroyer then clears only S's current peers and lets S reach its
RCU callback. After the callback frees S, CPU 1 handles a callback
through an RxRPC connection that still pins Pold, reads Pold->app_data,
and calls afs_use_server() on the freed object.

both cursors when the old and new lists share a peer; activating the

shared entry. |

afs: Fix incorrect free in candidate cleanup in afs_lookup_server()
Fix afs_lookup_server() to not free an existing server's endpoint state
when cleaning up a candidate server. The candidate record doesn't have an
endpoint state yet at this point, so the free for that can just be removed. |
| OpenImageIO is a toolset for reading, writing, and manipulating image files of any image file format relevant to VFX / animation. Prior to 3.1.16.0, a crafted ZIP-compressed TIFF processed with TIFF multithreading enabled can make TIFFInput::read_native_scanlines() return through an error path while asynchronous strip-decompression work remains queued. Because task_set is declared before ok and compressed_scratch, those captured objects are destroyed before the task-set destructor waits, allowing worker tasks to use stale stack and heap storage, resulting in a use-after-scope crash and denial of service. The affected implementation is identified by src/tiff.imageio/tiffinput.cpp, TIFFInput::read_native_scanlines(), task_set, ok, compressed_scratch, and uncompress_one_strip(), which define the relevant source path, functions, state, and trigger. This issue is fixed in 3.1.16.0. |
| A flaw was found in kube-compare. When processing a 'container://' reference path, the tool incorrectly executes an untrusted container image's entrypoint instead of merely extracting data from a stopped container. This allows a remote attacker to achieve arbitrary code execution on the operator's workstation. If the Docker daemon requires elevated privileges, the untrusted code may execute with root-mediated daemon privileges, posing a significant security risk. |
| Joplin is an open source note-taking and to-do application that organises notes and lists into notebooks. From 1.4.0 until 3.7.2, packages/renderer/MdToHtml/rules/katex.ts enables KaTeX's trust option for note content, allowing a note author to place a \href URL into rendered output without passing Joplin's normal URL allowlist. On Windows, clicking a link whose target is an attacker-controlled UNC path causes pathExists() to initiate SMB authentication and disclose the current user's NTLMv2 challenge-response without a warning. The unfiltered URL can also invoke other registered URL handlers, but the credential disclosure through KaTeX \href is the distinguishing demonstrated impact. This issue is fixed in version 3.7.2. |
| Network UPS Tools is a collection of programs which provide a common interface for monitoring and administering UPS, PDU and SCD hardware. Prior to commits 658b24e and 1aa31d1, the GitHub Actions script used to prepare NUT tarballs and update GitHub Checks statuses and PR comments about it was mis-structured in terms of mixing code running with higher privileges (single-use token generated with write permissions) and untrusted inputs (PR source branch). A malicious PR run from a fork could extract the GITHUB_TOKEN value. It could potentially be abused while it was valid (while the GHA job ran) to manipulate Git repository contents, commit checks/statuses, or issue/PR comments, according to permissions it was issued with. This issue has been patched via commits 658b24e and 1aa31d1. |

drm/amdgpu/userq: pin mqd and fw object bo to avoid eviction
mqd and fw objects are queue core objects which should remain
valid and never be unmapped and evicted for user queues to work
properly.
During eviction if these buffers are evicted the hw continue to
use the invalid addresses and caused page faults and system hung. |

virt: acrn: Fix irqfd use-after-free during eventfd shutdown
acrn_irqfd_deassign() and the eventfd EPOLLHUP wakeup can race and free
the same struct hsm_irqfd:
CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
eventfd_release()
wake_up_poll(EPOLLHUP)
hsm_irqfd_wakeup()
queue_work(&irqfd->shutdown)
acrn_irqfd_deassign()
hsm_irqfd_shutdown()
list_del_init()
eventfd_ctx_remove_wait_queue()
eventfd_ctx_put()
kfree(irqfd)
hsm_irqfd_shutdown_work()
container_of(work, ..., shutdown)
irqfd->vm <-- use-after-free
The deassign path freed the irqfd while a shutdown work item was
already queued by EPOLLHUP (or vice versa), so the work item could
resurrect a dangling pointer through container_of().
Switch to the lifetime model used by KVM irqfds:
- Deassign/deinit only deactivate the irqfd: remove it from vm->irqfds
under irqfds_lock and queue the cleanup work.
- hsm_irqfd_shutdown_work() becomes the sole owner that unhooks the
eventfd waitqueue entry, drops the eventfd reference and frees the
irqfd.
- A new HSM_IRQFD_FLAG_SHUTDOWN bit guarded by test_and_set_bit()
ensures the cleanup work is queued at most once, no matter how many
of {EPOLLHUP, deassign, deinit} fire concurrently. This is safe to
call from the waitqueue callback, which runs with wqh->lock held and
IRQs disabled and therefore cannot take irqfds_lock.
- acrn_irqfd_deassign() flushes vm->irqfd_wq before returning so the
eventfd is fully detached on return. acrn_irqfd_deinit() deactivates
every irqfd, flushes the workqueue and only then destroys it, so no
path can queue_work() onto a torn-down workqueue.
- acrn_irqfd_assign() now installs the eventfd waitqueue entry and
publishes the irqfd to vm->irqfds under irqfds_lock, so the irqfd is
never visible to deassign/deinit before its waitqueue entry is in
place, and any EPOLLHUP that fires in the assign window queues
cleanup work that blocks on irqfds_lock until publication is done. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Reject resilient lock operations in rbtree callbacks
__bpf_rbtree_add() keeps parent and link pointers live across calls to the
program-supplied comparison callback. The verifier therefore requires the
root's lock to remain held throughout the callback.
The helper path enforces this rule for bpf_spin_lock() and
bpf_spin_unlock(), but the resilient lock kfunc argument path does not.
Since resilient locks may protect BPF rbtree roots, a callback can release
the root lock and let another CPU remove and free the node referenced by
the in-progress tree walk. The walk then resumes using freed pointers.
Reject resilient lock kfuncs in an rbtree comparison callback, matching
the existing policy for the spin lock helpers. Resilient-lock-protected
trees remain valid when their comparison callbacks leave lock state alone. |
| Zammad is a web based open source helpdesk/customer support system. Prior to 7.0.2 and 7.1.0, zammad's HTML sanitizer (HtmlSanitizer::Strict) blocks external URLs in to prevent remote content loading, but the srcset attribute, also allowlisted for , is not subject to the same check. This oversight allows an attacker to embed arbitrary external URLs in the srcset attribute just by sending an e-mail, effectively bypassing the external content protection. When an agent views the ticket containing the malicious srcset, the browser will silently load the attacker-controlled URL, resulting in the leakage of the agent's IP address, User-Agent, Referer, and the exact time the ticket was viewed. HtmlSanitizer::Strict got extended to block external URLs in the srcset attribute of tags. This was done to prevent tracking pixels and external content loading, which could compromise user privacy. This issue is fixed in versions 7.0.2 and 7.1.0. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kasan: fix cache shrink race with CPU hotplug
kasan_quarantine_remove_cache() first invokes per_cpu_remove_cache() on
all online CPUs. Each callback moves objects belonging to the cache from
cpu_quarantine to the CPU's shrink_qlist, where they can later be freed
from task context.
kmem_cache_destroy() invokes the quarantine removal path while holding
cpus_read_lock(), but kmem_cache_shrink() does not. The latter can
therefore race with CPU offlining as follows:
kmem_cache_shrink() CPU hotplug
------------------- -----------
on_each_cpu()
CPU1 moves objects to
CPU1's shrink_qlist
on_each_cpu() returns
CPU1 goes offline
kasan_cpu_offline()
drains cpu_quarantine
leaves shrink_qlist untouched
for_each_online_cpu()
skips CPU1
The objects left on CPU1's shrink_qlist are not returned to the slab
allocator. This may prevent kmem_cache_shrink() from releasing slabs that
would otherwise become empty. If CPU1 remains offline, a later
kmem_cache_destroy() also skips the list and can report that the cache
still contains objects.
An intermittent occurrence was observed with a virtio-9p filesystem. The
mount and umount commands both returned 0, but the kernel logged the
following during the userspace-triggered teardown:

Thus, a successful umount left objects in the 9p fcall cache and prevented
the cache from being destroyed cleanly.
Per-CPU shrink_qlist storage exists for every possible CPU, and each list
is protected by its own raw spinlock. Iterate over possible CPUs so that
a list populated before its CPU went offline is drained as well.
for_each_possible_cpu() can do more work than for_each_online_cpu(), but
this change only affects CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC kernels. The extra work is
limited to cache shrink and cache destruction paths and does not affect
the normal allocation/free fast path. It adds one raw-spinlock-protected
scan of each possible CPU's shrink list. These lists are normally empty;
a non-empty list is traversed to remove objects belonging to the cache
being shrunk or destroyed. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Don't dereference trace_event_file in deferred trigger free
The enable_event trigger defers trace_event_put_ref() to the
trigger free kthread, but the trace_event_file can already be freed
when the instance is removed.
Keep the trace_event_call directly in enable_trigger_data so the
deferred free does not access the freed trace_event_file. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: btqcomsmd: destroy RPMsg endpoints before freeing hci_dev
The command and ACL RPMsg endpoints store struct btqcomsmd as their
callback private data. The receive callbacks dereference btq->hdev
without taking an hci_dev reference.
The current teardown order frees the hci_dev before destroying the RPMsg
endpoints in both the hci_register_dev() error path and the driver remove
path. If WCNSS delivers data in that window, the endpoint callback can
run with an already freed hci_dev and pass it to the Bluetooth core.
For qcom_smd endpoints, rpmsg_destroy_ept() closes the channel and clears
the callback under the channel recv_lock. The receive path holds the same
lock while invoking the callback, so destroying the endpoints first both
prevents new callbacks and serializes with any callback already running.
Destroy the command and ACL endpoints before hci_free_dev(). Keep
hci_unregister_dev() first during remove so the HCI core stops issuing
operations before the transport endpoints are shut down. In the full
registration-error cleanup path, return directly after freeing the hci_dev
to avoid falling through to the partial-construction labels and destroying
the endpoints twice. |
| RouterOS WebFig contains an unauthenticated file-read vulnerability in the /jsproxy path where a newly allocated session retains a stale uninitialized principal pointer used for file authorization. An unauthenticated attacker can prepare the allocator so that the file-serving path dereferences this pointer with sufficient rights, then supply parent-directory components in an encrypted URI to escape the WebFig file namespace and disclose root-owned files, including configuration stores containing credentials.This issue affects only 7.x branch was fixed in versions: 7.23.4 (Long-term) and 7.24.2 (Stable) |

wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: fix P2P-Device binding handling
Our binding handling for P2P-Device can run into the following
scenario, as observed by our testing:
- a station interface is connected on some channel
- the P2P-Device does a remain-on-channel (ROC) on that channel
- the ROC ends, and the P2P-Device is removed from the binding,
but the phy_ctxt pointer is left around as a PHY cache so we
don't need to recalibrate to the channel again and again in
case it's not shared
- a binding update by the station interface, even a removal,
will re-add the P2P-Device to the binding
- the P2P-Device is removed, which removes the PHY context, but
it's still in the binding so the firmware crashes
Since the P2P device is removed from the binding and only re-
added by unrelated code, but we want to keep the phy_ctxt around
as a cache for future ROC usage, fix it by adding a boolean that
indicates whether or not the P2P-Device should be added to the
binding, and handle that in the binding iterator. That way, the
station interface cannot re-add the P2P-Device to the binding
when that isn't active. |
