In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: em28xx: defer audio-only extension registration The audio-only path registers extensions while probing the primary device. For a dual-TS board, this happens before dev_next is created. The duplicate device inherits is_audio_only and is then independently inserted into em28xx_devlist. The list is intended to contain only primary devices: extension operations reach the secondary device through dev_next. The independently linked secondary can be freed during disconnect while its list node remains reachable, resulting in a use-after-free. Defer audio-only extension registration to the module-request work item. It runs only after probing has completed construction of the optional secondary device, so only the primary is registered and extension callbacks reach the secondary through dev_next.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: bridge: fix vlan tunnel dst     refcnt when egressing The egress tunnel code uses dst_clone() and directly sets the result which is wrong     because the entry might have 0 refcnt or be already deleted, causing number of problems. It also triggers     the WARN_ON() in dst_hold()[1] when a refcnt couldn't be taken. Fix it by using dst_hold_safe() and     checking if a reference was actually taken before setting the dst.

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: bridge: fix vlan tunnel dst null     pointer dereference This patch fixes a tunnel_dst null pointer dereference due to lockless access in the     tunnel egress path. When deleting a vlan tunnel the tunnel_dst pointer is set to NULL without waiting a     grace period (i.e. while it's still usable) and packets egressing are dereferencing it without checking.
    Use READ/WRITE_ONCE to annotate the lockless use of tunnel_id, use RCU for accessing tunnel_dst and make     sure it is read only once and checked in the egress path. The dst is already properly RCU protected so we     don't need to do anything fancy than to make sure tunnel_id and tunnel_dst are read only once and checked     in the egress path. (CVE-2021-47223)

  - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: Guard stack limits against 32bit     overflow This patch promotes the arithmetic around checking stack bounds to be done in the 64-bit domain,     instead of the current 32bit. The arithmetic implies adding together a 64-bit register with a int offset.
    The register was checked to be below 1<<29 when it was variable, but not when it was fixed. The offset     either comes from an instruction (in which case it is 16 bit), from another register (in which case the     caller checked it to be below 1<<29 [1]), or from the size of an argument to a kfunc (in which case it can     be a u32 [2]). Between the register being inconsistently checked to be below 1<<29, and the offset being     up to an u32, it appears that we were open to overflowing the `int`s which were currently used for     arithmetic.

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)
