🚨 CVE-2026-53004
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: fix OOB write to userspace in sctp_getsockopt_peer_auth_chunks
sctp_getsockopt_peer_auth_chunks() checks that the caller's optval
buffer is large enough for the peer AUTH chunk list with
if (len < num_chunks)
return -EINVAL;
but then writes num_chunks bytes to p->gauth_chunks, which lives
at offset offsetof(struct sctp_authchunks, gauth_chunks) == 8
inside optval. The check is missing the sizeof(struct
sctp_authchunks) = 8-byte header. When the caller supplies
len == num_chunks (for any num_chunks > 0) the test passes but
copy_to_user() writes sizeof(struct sctp_authchunks) = 8 bytes
past the declared buffer.
The sibling function sctp_getsockopt_local_auth_chunks() at the
next line already has the correct check:
if (len < sizeof(struct sctp_authchunks) + num_chunks)
return -EINVAL;
Align the peer variant with its sibling.
Reproducer confirms on v7.0-13-generic: an unprivileged userspace
caller that opens a loopback SCTP association with AUTH enabled,
queries num_chunks with a short optval, then issues the real
getsockopt with len == num_chunks and sentinel bytes painted past
the buffer observes those sentinel bytes overwritten with the
peer's AUTH chunk type. The bytes written are under the peer's
control but land in the caller's own userspace; this is not a
kernel memory corruption, but it is a kernel-side contract
violation that can silently corrupt adjacent userspace data.

🚨 CVE-2026-53005
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
af_unix: Drop all SCM attributes for SOCKMAP.
SOCKMAP can hide inflight fd from AF_UNIX GC.
When a socket in SOCKMAP receives skb with inflight fd,
sk_psock_verdict_data_ready() looks up the mapped socket and
enqueue skb to its psock->ingress_skb.
Since neither the old nor the new GC can inspect the psock
queue, the hidden skb leaks the inflight sockets. Note that
this cannot be detected via kmemleak because inflight sockets
are linked to a global list.
In addition, SOCKMAP redirect breaks the Tarjan-based GC's
assumption that unix_edge.successor is always alive, which
is no longer true once skb is redirected, resulting in
use-after-free below. [0]
Moreover, SOCKMAP does not call scm_stat_del() properly,
so unix_show_fdinfo() could report an incorrect fd count.
sk_msg_recvmsg() does not support any SCM attributes in the
first place.
Let's drop all SCM attributes before passing skb to the
SOCKMAP layer.

🚨 CVE-2026-53008
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: fix race condition in TX timestamp ring cleanup
Fix a race condition between ice_free_tx_tstamp_ring() and ice_tx_map()
that can cause a NULL pointer dereference.
ice_free_tx_tstamp_ring currently clears the ICE_TX_FLAGS_TXTIME flag
after NULLing the tstamp_ring. This could allow a concurrent ice_tx_map
call on another CPU to dereference the tstamp_ring, which could lead to
a NULL pointer dereference.
CPU A:ice_free_tx_tstamp_ring() | CPU B:ice_tx_map()
--------------------------------|---------------------------------
tx_ring->tstamp_ring = NULL |
| ice_is_txtime_cfg() -> true
| tstamp_ring = tx_ring->tstamp_ring
| tstamp_ring->count // NULL deref!
flags &= ~ICE_TX_FLAGS_TXTIME |
Fix by:
1. Reordering ice_free_tx_tstamp_ring() to clear the flag before
NULLing the pointer, with smp_wmb() to ensure proper ordering.
2. Adding smp_rmb() in ice_tx_map() after the flag check to order the
flag read before the pointer read, using READ_ONCE() for the
pointer, and adding a NULL check as a safety net.
3. Converting tx_ring->flags from u8 to DECLARE_BITMAP() and using
atomic bitops (set_bit(), clear_bit(), test_bit()) for all flag
operations throughout the driver:
- ICE_TX_RING_FLAGS_XDP
- ICE_TX_RING_FLAGS_VLAN_L2TAG1
- ICE_TX_RING_FLAGS_VLAN_L2TAG2

🚨 CVE-2026-53009
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: fix double-free of tx_buf skb
If ice_tso() or ice_tx_csum() fail, the error path in
ice_xmit_frame_ring() frees the skb, but the 'first' tx_buf still points
to it and is marked as valid (ICE_TX_BUF_SKB).
'next_to_use' remains unchanged, so the potential problem will
likely fix itself when the next packet is transmitted and the tx_buf
gets overwritten. But if there is no next packet and the interface is
brought down instead, ice_clean_tx_ring() -> ice_unmap_and_free_tx_buf()
will find the tx_buf and free the skb for the second time.
The fix is to reset the tx_buf type to ICE_TX_BUF_EMPTY in the error
path, so that ice_unmap_and_free_tx_buf().
Move the initialization of 'first' up, to ensure it's already valid in
case we hit the linearization error path.
The bug was spotted by AI while I had it looking for something else.
It also proposed an initial version of the patch.
I reproduced the bug and tested the fix by adding code to inject
failures, on a build with KASAN.
I looked for similar bugs in related Intel drivers and did not find any.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: taprio: fix use-after-free in advance_sched() on schedule switch
In advance_sched(), when should_change_schedules() returns true,
switch_schedules() is called to promote the admin schedule to oper.
switch_schedules() queues the old oper schedule for RCU freeing via
call_rcu(), but 'next' still points into an entry of the old oper
schedule. The subsequent 'next->end_time = end_time' and
rcu_assign_pointer(q->current_entry, next) are use-after-free.
Fix this by selecting 'next' from the new oper schedule immediately
after switch_schedules(), and using its pre-calculated end_time.
setup_first_end_time() sets the first entry's end_time to
base_time + interval when the schedule is installed, so the value
is already correct.
The deleted 'end_time = sched_base_time(admin)' assignment was also
harmful independently: it would overwrite the new first entry's
pre-calculated end_time with just base_time.

🚨 CVE-2026-53012
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nexthop: fix IPv6 route referencing IPv4 nexthop
syzbot reported a panic [1] [2].
When an IPv6 nexthop is replaced with an IPv4 nexthop, the has_v4 flag
of all groups containing this nexthop is not updated. This is because
nh_group_v4_update is only called when replacing AF_INET to AF_INET6,
but the reverse direction (AF_INET6 to AF_INET) is missed.
This allows a stale has_v4=false to bypass fib6_check_nexthop, causing
IPv6 routes to be attached to groups that effectively contain only AF_INET
members. Subsequent route lookups then call nexthop_fib6_nh() which
returns NULL for the AF_INET member, leading to a NULL pointer
dereference.
Fix by calling nh_group_v4_update whenever the family changes, not just
AF_INET to AF_INET6.
Reproducer:

macvlan_get_size() does not account for IFLA_MACVLAN_BC_CUTOFF, but

The bug can be reproduced with:
ip link add macvlan0 link eth0 type macvlan mode bridge
ip link set macvlan0 type macvlan bc_cutoff 0
ip -d link show macvlan0 # fails with -EMSGSIZE
The bc_cutoff feature was added in commit 954d1fa1ac93 ("macvlan: Add
netlink attribute for broadcast cutoff"), which added the nla_put_s32()
call in macvlan_fill_info() but missed adding the corresponding
nla_total_size(4) in macvlan_get_size(). A follow-up commit
55cef78c244d ("macvlan: add forgotten nla_policy for

did not fix the size calculation.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
macvlan: fix macvlan_get_size() not reserving space for IFLA_MACVLAN_BC_CUTOFF
macvlan_get_size() does not account for IFLA_MACVLAN_BC_CUTOFF, but
macvlan_fill_info() conditionally includes it when port->bc_cutoff != 1.
This causes nla_put_s32() to fail with -EMSGSIZE when the netlink skb
runs out of space, triggering a WARN_ON in rtnetlink and preventing the
interface from being dumped.

🚨 CVE-2026-53014
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: act_mirred: fix wrong device for mac_header_xmit check in tcf_blockcast_redir
In tcf_blockcast_redir(), when iterating block ports to redirect
packets to multiple devices, the mac_header_xmit flag is queried
from the wrong device. The loop sends to dev_prev but queries
dev_is_mac_header_xmit(dev) — which is the NEXT device in the
iteration, not the one being sent to.
This causes tcf_mirred_to_dev() to make incorrect decisions about
whether to push or pull the MAC header. When the block contains
mixed device types (e.g., an ethernet veth and a tunnel device),
intermediate devices get the wrong mac_header_xmit flag, leading to
skb header corruption. In the worst case, skb_push_rcsum with an
incorrect mac_len can exhaust headroom and panic.
The last device in the loop is handled correctly (line 365-366 uses
dev_is_mac_header_xmit(dev_prev)), confirming this is a copy-paste
oversight for the intermediate devices.
Fix by using dev_prev instead of dev for the mac_header_xmit query,
consistent with the device actually being sent to.

🚨 CVE-2026-53017
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix data loss caused by incorrect use of nat_entry flag
Data loss can occur when fsync is performed on a newly created file
(before any checkpoint has been written) concurrently with a checkpoint
operation. The scenario is as follows:
create & write & fsync 'file A' write checkpoint
- f2fs_do_sync_file // inline inode
- f2fs_write_inode // inode folio is dirty
- f2fs_write_checkpoint
- f2fs_flush_merged_writes
- f2fs_sync_node_pages
- f2fs_flush_nat_entries
- f2fs_fsync_node_pages // no dirty node
- f2fs_need_inode_block_update // return false
SPO and lost 'file A'
f2fs_flush_nat_entries() sets the IS_CHECKPOINTED and HAS_LAST_FSYNC
flags for the nat_entry, but this does not mean that the checkpoint has
actually completed successfully. However, f2fs_need_inode_block_update()
checks these flags and incorrectly assumes that the checkpoint has
finished.
The root cause is that the semantics of IS_CHECKPOINTED and
HAS_LAST_FSYNC are only guaranteed after the checkpoint write fully
completes.
This patch modifies f2fs_need_inode_block_update() to acquire the
sbi->node_write lock before reading the nat_entry flags, ensuring that
once IS_CHECKPOINTED and HAS_LAST_FSYNC are observed to be set, the
checkpoint operation has already completed.
