In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nouveau/gem: reserve the bo in the info ioctl around the vma lookup In the non-uvmm path, there could be a race between the info lookup finding the vma, and the gem close path closing the vma leading to a use-after-free. Spotted with the help of Opus 4.6.

The Rocky Linux 9.6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare ALMALINUX9.6:CLSA-2026:1792762308 advisory.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: mpi3mr: Synchronous access b/w     reset and tm thread for reply queue When the task management thread processes reply queues while the reset     thread resets them, the task management thread accesses an invalid queue ID (0xFFFF), set by the reset     thread, which points to unallocated memory, causing a crash. Add flag 'io_admin_reset_sync' to synchronize     access between the reset, I/O, and admin threads. Before a reset, the reset handler sets this flag to     block I/O and admin processing threads. If any thread bypasses the initial check, the reset thread waits     up to 10 seconds for processing to finish. If the wait exceeds 10 seconds, the controller is marked as     unrecoverable. (CVE-2025-37861)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: MGMT: cancel mesh send     timer when hdev removed mesh_send_done timer is not canceled when hdev is removed, which causes crash if     the timer triggers after hdev is gone. Cancel the timer when MGMT removes the hdev, like other MGMT     timers. Should fix the BUG: sporadically seen by BlueZ test bot (in Mesh - Send cancel - 1 test). Log:

As the former frees the DAI's private context, these two     operations shall be synchronized to avoid slab-use-after-free or worse errors. (CVE-2025-40344)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv6: icmp: clear skb2->cb[] in     ip6_err_gen_icmpv6_unreach() Sashiko AI-review observed: In ip6_err_gen_icmpv6_unreach(), the skb is an     outer IPv4 ICMP error packet where its cb contains an IPv4 inet_skb_parm. When skb is cloned into skb2 and     passed to icmp6_send(), it uses IP6CB(skb2). IP6CB interprets the IPv4 inet_skb_parm as an inet6_skb_parm.
    The cipso offset in inet_skb_parm.opt directly overlaps with dsthao in inet6_skb_parm at offset 18. If an     attacker sends a forged ICMPv4 error with a CIPSO IP option, dsthao would be a non-zero offset. Inside     icmp6_send(), mip6_addr_swap() is called and uses ipv6_find_tlv(skb, opt->dsthao, IPV6_TLV_HAO). This     would scan the inner, attacker-controlled IPv6 packet starting at that offset, potentially returning a     fake TLV without checking if the remaining packet length can hold the full 18-byte struct     ipv6_destopt_hao. Could mip6_addr_swap() then perform a 16-byte swap that extends past the end of the     packet data into skb_shared_info? Should the cb array also be cleared in ip6_err_gen_icmpv6_unreach() and     ip6ip6_err() to prevent this? This patch implements the first suggestion. I am not sure if ip6ip6_err()     needs to be changed. A separate patch would be better anyway. (CVE-2026-43038)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/rxe: Fix double free in     rxe_srq_from_init In rxe_srq_from_init(), the queue pointer 'q' is assigned to 'srq->rq.queue' before     copying the SRQ number to user space. If copy_to_user() fails, the function calls rxe_queue_cleanup() to     free the queue, but leaves the now-invalid pointer in 'srq->rq.queue'. The caller of rxe_srq_from_init()     (rxe_create_srq) eventually calls rxe_srq_cleanup() upon receiving the error, which triggers a second     rxe_queue_cleanup() on the same memory, leading to a double free. The call trace looks like this:

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cifs: fix session state check in     reconnect to avoid use-after-free issue Don't collect exiting session in smb2_reconnect_server(), because     it will be released soon. Note that the exiting session will stay in server->smb_ses_list until it     complete the cifs_free_ipc() and logoff() and then delete itself from the list. (CVE-2023-53794)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: skbuff: propagate shared-frag     marker through frag-transfer helpers Two frag-transfer helpers (__pskb_copy_fclone() and skb_shift()) fail     to propagate the SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG bit in skb_shinfo()->flags when moving frags from source to     destination. __pskb_copy_fclone() defers the rest of the shinfo metadata to skb_copy_header() after     copying frag descriptors, but that helper only carries over gso_{size,segs, type} and never touches     skb_shinfo()->flags; skb_shift() moves frag descriptors directly and leaves flags untouched. As a result,     the destination skb keeps a reference to the same externally-owned or page-cache-backed pages while     reporting skb_has_shared_frag() as false. The mismatch is harmful in any in-place writer that uses     skb_has_shared_frag() to decide whether shared pages must be detoured through skb_cow_data(). ESP input is     one such writer (esp4.c, esp6.c), and a single nft 'dup to <local>' rule -- or any other nf_dup_ipv4() /     xt_TEE caller -- is enough to land a pskb_copy()'d skb in esp_input() with the marker stripped, letting an     unprivileged user write into the page cache of a root-owned read-only file via authencesn-ESN stray     writes. Set SKBFL_SHARED_FRAG on the destination whenever frag descriptors were actually moved from the     source. skb_copy() and skb_copy_expand() share skb_copy_header() too but linearize all paged data into     freshly allocated head storage and emerge with nr_frags == 0, so skb_has_shared_frag() returns false on     its own; they need no change. The same omission exists in skb_gro_receive() and skb_gro_receive_list().
    The former moves the incoming skb's frag descriptors into the accumulator's last sub-skb via two paths (a     direct frag-move loop and the head_frag + memcpy path); the latter chains the incoming skb whole onto p's     frag_list. Downstream skb_segment() reads only skb_shinfo(p)->flags, and skb_segment_list() reuses each     sub-skb's shinfo as the nskb -- both p and lp must carry the marker. The same omission also exists in     tcp_clone_payload(), which builds an MTU probe skb by moving frag descriptors from skbs on sk_write_queue     into a freshly allocated nskb. The helper falls into the same family and warrants the same fix for     consistency; no TCP TX-side in-place writer is currently known to reach a user page through this gap, but     a future consumer depending on the marker would regress silently. The same omission exists in     skb_segment(): the per-iteration flag merge takes only head_skb's flag, and the inner switch that rebinds     frag_skb to list_skb on head_skb-frags exhaustion does not fold the new frag_skb's flag into nskb. Fold     frag_skb's flag at both sites so segments drawing frags from frag_list members carry the marker.
    (CVE-2026-43503)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/uverbs: Validate wqe_size before     using it in ib_uverbs_post_send ib_uverbs_post_send() uses cmd.wqe_size from userspace without any     validation before passing it to kmalloc() and using the allocated buffer as struct ib_uverbs_send_wr. If a     user provides a small wqe_size value (e.g., 1), kmalloc() will succeed, but subsequent accesses to     user_wr->opcode, user_wr->num_sge, and other fields will read beyond the allocated buffer, resulting in an     out-of-bounds read from kernel heap memory. This could potentially leak sensitive kernel information to     userspace. Additionally, providing an excessively large wqe_size can trigger a WARNING in the memory     allocation path, as reported by syzkaller. This is inconsistent with ib_uverbs_unmarshall_recv() which     properly validates that wqe_size >= sizeof(struct ib_uverbs_recv_wr) before proceeding. Add the same     validation for ib_uverbs_post_send() to ensure wqe_size is at least sizeof(struct ib_uverbs_send_wr).
    (CVE-2026-45856)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: authencesn - reject short     ahash digests during instance creation authencesn requires either a zero authsize or an authsize of at     least 4 bytes because the ESN encrypt/decrypt paths always move 4 bytes of high-order sequence number data     at the end of the authenticated data. While crypto_authenc_esn_setauthsize() already rejects explicit non-     zero authsizes in the range 1..3, crypto_authenc_esn_create() still copied auth->digestsize into     inst->alg.maxauthsize without validating it. The AEAD core then initialized the tfm's default authsize     from that value. As a result, selecting an ahash with digest size 1..3, such as cbcmac(cipher_null),     exposed authencesn instances whose default authsize was invalid even though setauthsize() would have     rejected the same value. AF_ALG could then trigger the ESN tail handling with a too-short tag and hit an     out-of-bounds access. Reject authencesn instances whose ahash digest size is in the invalid non-zero range     1..3 so that no tfm can inherit an unsupported default authsize. (CVE-2026-46033)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/rxe: Validate pad and ICRC before     payload_size() in rxe_rcv rxe_rcv() currently checks only that the incoming packet is at least     header_size(pkt) bytes long before payload_size() is used. However, payload_size() subtracts both the     attacker-controlled BTH pad field and RXE_ICRC_SIZE from pkt->paylen: payload_size = pkt->paylen -     offset[RXE_PAYLOAD] - bth_pad(pkt) - RXE_ICRC_SIZE This means a short packet can still make payload_size()     underflow even if it includes enough bytes for the fixed headers. Simply requiring header_size(pkt) +     RXE_ICRC_SIZE is not sufficient either, because a packet with a forged non-zero BTH pad can still leave     payload_size() negative and pass an underflowed value to later receive-path users. Fix this by validating     pkt->paylen against the full minimum length required by payload_size(): header_size(pkt) + bth_pad(pkt) +     RXE_ICRC_SIZE. (CVE-2026-46043)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/khugepaged: fix ->anon_vma race If     an ->anon_vma is attached to the VMA, collapse_and_free_pmd() requires it to be locked. Page table     traversal is allowed under any one of the mmap lock, the anon_vma lock (if the VMA is associated with an     anon_vma), and the mapping lock (if the VMA is associated with a mapping); and so to be able to remove     page tables, we must hold all three of them. retract_page_tables() bails out if an ->anon_vma is attached,     but does this check before holding the mmap lock (as the comment above the check explains). If we racily     merged an existing ->anon_vma (shared with a child process) from a neighboring VMA, subsequent rmap     traversals on pages belonging to the child will be able to see the page tables that we are concurrently     removing while assuming that nothing else can access them. Repeat the ->anon_vma check once we hold the     mmap lock to ensure that there really is no concurrent page table access. Hitting this bug causes a     lockdep warning in collapse_and_free_pmd(), in the line     lockdep_assert_held_write(&vma->anon_vma->root->rwsem). It can also lead to use-after-free access.

  - nfqnl_mangle in net/netfilter/nfnetlink_queue.c in the Linux kernel through 5.18.14 allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) because, in the case of an nf_queue verdict with a one-byte     nfta_payload attribute, an skb_pull can encounter a negative skb->len. (CVE-2022-36946)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: Fix a memory     corruption issue A few lines above, space is kzalloc()'ed for: sizeof(struct iwl_nvm_data) + sizeof(struct     ieee80211_channel) + sizeof(struct ieee80211_rate) 'mvm->nvm_data' is a 'struct iwl_nvm_data', so it is     fine. At the end of this structure, there is the 'channels' flex array. Each element is of type 'struct     ieee80211_channel'. So only 1 element is allocated in this array. When doing:
    mvm->nvm_data->bands[0].channels = mvm->nvm_data->channels; We point at the first element of the     'channels' flex array. So this is fine. However, when doing: mvm->nvm_data->bands[0].bitrates = (void
    *)((u8 *)mvm->nvm_data->channels + 1); because of the (u8 *) cast, we add only 1 to the address of the     beginning of the flex array. It is likely that we want point at the 'struct ieee80211_rate' allocated just     after. Remove the spurious casting so that the pointer arithmetic works as expected. (CVE-2023-52531)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: x86: Don't (re)check L1     intercepts when completing userspace I/O When completing emulation of instruction that generated a     userspace exit for I/O, don't recheck L1 intercepts as KVM has already finished that phase of instruction     execution, i.e. has already committed to allowing L2 to perform I/O. If L1 (or host userspace) modifies     the I/O permission bitmaps during the exit to userspace, KVM will treat the access as being intercepted     despite already having emulated the I/O access. Pivot on EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE to detect that KVM is     completing emulation. Of the three users of EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE, only complete_emulated_io() (the intended     recipient) can reach the code in question. gp_interception()'s use is mutually exclusive with     is_guest_mode(), and complete_emulated_insn_gp() unconditionally pairs EMULTYPE_NO_DECODE with     EMULTYPE_SKIP. The bad behavior was detected by a syzkaller program that toggles port I/O interception     during the userspace I/O exit, ultimately resulting in a WARN on vcpu->arch.pio.count being non-zero due     to KVM no completing emulation of the I/O instruction.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: btusb: fix use-after-free     on registration failure Make sure to release the sibling interfaces in case controller registration fails     to avoid use-after-free and double-free when they are eventually disconnected. This issue was reported by     Sashiko while reviewing a fix for a wakeup source leak in the btusb probe errors paths. (CVE-2026-64471)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: firewire: isight: bound the     sample count to the packet payload isight_packet() takes the frame count from the device iso packet and     checks it only against the device claimed iso length. count = be32_to_cpu(payload->sample_count); if     (likely(count <= (length - 16) / 4)) isight_samples(isight, payload->samples, count); length is the iso     header data_length. It can be up to 0xffff. So the gate allows a count up to about 16379. isight_samples()     then copies count frames out of payload->samples into the PCM DMA buffer. payload->samples holds only 2 *     MAX_FRAMES_PER_PACKET values. The device multiplexes two samples per frame. A count past     MAX_FRAMES_PER_PACKET reads past the payload. A count past the buffer size writes past runtime->dma_area.
    The smallest PCM buffer is larger than MAX_FRAMES_PER_PACKET. Bounding the count to MAX_FRAMES_PER_PACKET     keeps both the read and the write in range. A malicious or faulty Apple iSight on the FireWire bus reaches     this during a normal capture. Add the MAX_FRAMES_PER_PACKET bound to the gate. (CVE-2026-64483)

The AlmaLinux 9.2 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the TuxCare ALMALINUX9.2:CLSA-2026:1792243434 advisory.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ethernet: hisilicon: hns:
    hns_dsaf_misc: fix a possible array overflow in hns_dsaf_ge_srst_by_port() The if statement: if (port >=     DSAF_GE_NUM) return; limits the value of port less than DSAF_GE_NUM (i.e., 8). However, if the value of     port is 6 or 7, an array overflow could occur: port_rst_off = dsaf_dev->mac_cb[port]->port_rst_off;
    because the length of dsaf_dev->mac_cb is DSAF_MAX_PORT_NUM (i.e., 6). To fix this possible array     overflow, we first check port and if it is greater than or equal to DSAF_MAX_PORT_NUM, the function     returns. (CVE-2021-47548)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dm: call the resume method on internal     suspend There is this reported crash when experimenting with the lvm2 testsuite. The list corruption is     caused by the fact that the postsuspend and resume methods were not paired correctly; there were two     consecutive calls to the origin_postsuspend function. The second call attempts to remove the hash_list     entry from a list, while it was already removed by the first call. Fix __dm_internal_resume so that it     calls the preresume and resume methods of the table's targets. If a preresume method of some target fails,     we are in a tricky situation. We can't return an error because dm_internal_resume isn't supposed to return     errors. We can't return success, because then the resume and postsuspend methods would not be paired     correctly. So, we set the DMF_SUSPENDED flag and we fake normal suspend - it may confuse userspace tools,     but it won't cause a kernel crash. ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:56!     invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP CPU: 1 PID: 8343 Comm: dmsetup Not tainted 6.8.0-rc6 #4 Hardware     name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.14.0-2 04/01/2014 RIP:

    ---truncated--- (CVE-2024-35899)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/client: Fully protect modes[] with     dev->mode_config.mutex The modes[] array contains pointers to modes on the connectors' mode lists, which     are protected by dev->mode_config.mutex. Thus we need to extend modes[] the same protection or by the time     we use it the elements may already be pointing to freed/reused memory. (CVE-2024-35950)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - nouveau/gem: reserve the bo in the info ioctl around the vma lookup In the non-uvmm path, there could be a     race between the info lookup finding the vma, and the gem close path closing the vma leading to a use-     after-free. Spotted with the help of Opus 4.6. (CVE-2026-89553)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
