🚨 CVE-2026-53114
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

perf/amd/ibs: Avoid calling perf_allow_kernel() from the IBS NMI handler

Calling perf_allow_kernel() from the NMI context is unsafe and could be
fatal. Capture the permission at event-initialization time by storing it
in event->hw.flags, and have the NMI handler rely on that cached flag
instead of making the call directly.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bus: fsl-mc: use generic driver_override infrastructure

When a driver is probed through __driver_attach(), the bus' match()
callback is called without the device lock held, thus accessing the
driver_override field without a lock, which can cause a UAF.

Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure taking
care of proper locking internally.

Note that calling match() from __driver_attach() without the device lock
held is intentional. [1]

🚨 CVE-2026-53116
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

s390/ap: use generic driver_override infrastructure

When the AP masks are updated via apmask_store() or aqmask_store(),
ap_bus_revise_bindings() is called after ap_attr_mutex has been
released.

This calls __ap_revise_reserved(), which accesses the driver_override
field without holding any lock, racing against a concurrent
driver_override_store() that may free the old string, resulting in a
potential UAF.

Fix this by using the driver-core driver_override infrastructure, which
protects all accesses with an internal spinlock.

Note that unlike most other buses, the AP bus does not check
driver_override in its match() callback; the override is checked in
ap_device_probe() and __ap_revise_reserved() instead.

Also note that we do not enable the driver_override feature of struct
bus_type, as AP - in contrast to most other buses - passes "" to
sysfs_emit() when the driver_override pointer is NULL. Thus, printing
"\n" instead of "(null)\n".

Additionally, AP has a custom counter that is modified in the
corresponding custom driver_override_store().

🚨 CVE-2026-53122
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

btrfs: fix deadlock between reflink and transaction commit when using flushoncommit

When using the flushoncommit mount option, we can have a deadlock between
a transaction commit and a reflink operation that copied an inline extent
to an offset beyond the current i_size of the destination node.

The deadlock happens like this:

1) Task A clones an inline extent from inode X to an offset of inode Y
that is beyond Y's current i_size. This means we copied the inline
extent's data to a folio of inode Y that is beyond its EOF, using a
call to copy_inline_to_page();

2) Task B starts a transaction commit and calls
btrfs_start_delalloc_flush() to flush delalloc;

3) The delalloc flushing sees the new dirty folio of inode Y and when it
attempts to flush it, it ends up at extent_writepage() and sees that
the offset of the folio is beyond the i_size of inode Y, so it attempts
to invalidate the folio by calling folio_invalidate(), which ends up at
btrfs' folio invalidate callback - btrfs_invalidate_folio(). There it
tries to lock the folio's range in inode Y's extent io tree, but it
blocks since it's currently locked by task A - during a reflink we lock
the inodes and the source and destination ranges after flushing all
delalloc and waiting for ordered extent completion - after that we
don't expect to have dirty folios in the ranges, the exception is if
we have to copy an inline extent's data (because the destination offset
is not zero);

4) Task A then attempts to start a transaction to update the inode item,
and then it's blocked since the current transaction is in the
TRANS_STATE_COMMIT_START state. Therefore task A has to wait for the
current transaction to become unblocked (its state >=
TRANS_STATE_UNBLOCKED).

So task A is waiting for the transaction commit done by task B, and
the later waiting on the extent lock of inode Y that is currently
held by task A.

🚨 CVE-2026-53123
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

md: wake raid456 reshape waiters before suspend

During raid456 reshape, direct IO across the reshape position can sleep
in raid5_make_request() waiting for reshape progress while still
holding an active_io reference. If userspace then freezes reshape and
writes md/suspend_lo or md/suspend_hi, mddev_suspend() kills active_io
and waits for all in-flight IO to drain.

This can deadlock: the IO needs reshape progress to continue, but the
reshape thread is already frozen, so the active_io reference is never
dropped and suspend never completes.

raid5_prepare_suspend() already wakes wait_for_reshape for dm-raid. Do
the same for normal md suspend when reshape is already interrupted, so
waiting raid456 IO can abort, drop its reference, and let suspend
finish.

The mdadm test tests/25raid456-reshape-deadlock reproduces the hang.

🚨 CVE-2026-53124
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ublk: reset per-IO canceled flag on each fetch

If a ublk server starts recovering devices but dies before issuing fetch
commands for all IOs, cancellation of the fetch commands that were
successfully issued may never complete. This is because the per-IO
canceled flag can remain set even after the fetch for that IO has been
submitted - the per-IO canceled flags for all IOs in a queue are reset
together only once all IOs for that queue have been fetched. So if a
nonempty proper subset of the IOs for a queue are fetched when the ublk
server dies, the IOs in that subset will never successfully be canceled,
as their canceled flags remain set, and this prevents ublk_cancel_cmd
from actually calling io_uring_cmd_done on the commands, despite the
fact that they are outstanding.

Fix this by resetting the per-IO cancel flags immediately when each IO
is fetched instead of waiting for all IOs for the queue (which may never
happen).

Add the missing put_disk() on the error path in
blkcg_maybe_throttle_current(). When blkcg lookup, blkg lookup, or
blkg_tryget() fails, the function jumps to the out label which only
calls rcu_read_unlock() but does not release the disk reference acquired
by blkcg_schedule_throttle() via get_device(). Since current->throttle_disk
is already set to NULL before the lookup, blkcg_exit() cannot release
this reference either, causing the disk to never be freed.

original code but was inadvertently dropped during the conversion from
request_queue to gendisk.

🚨 CVE-2026-53129
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

fs/mbcache: cancel shrink work before destroying the cache

mb_cache_destroy() calls shrinker_free() and then frees all cache
entries and the cache itself, but it does not cancel the pending
c_shrink_work work item first.

If mb_cache_entry_create() schedules c_shrink_work via schedule_work()
and the work item is still pending or running when mb_cache_destroy()
runs, mb_cache_shrink_worker() will access the cache after its memory
has been freed, causing a use-after-free.

This is only reachable by a privileged user (root or CAP_SYS_ADMIN)
who can trigger the last put of a mounted ext2/ext4/ocfs2 filesystem.

Cancel the work item with cancel_work_sync() before calling
shrinker_free(), ensuring the worker has finished and will not be
rescheduled before the cache is torn down.

🚨 CVE-2026-53130
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

fs/omfs: reject s_sys_blocksize smaller than OMFS_DIR_START

omfs_fill_super() rejects oversized s_sys_blocksize values (> PAGE_SIZE),
but it does not reject values smaller than OMFS_DIR_START (0x1b8 = 440).

Later, omfs_make_empty() uses

sbi->s_sys_blocksize - OMFS_DIR_START

as the length argument to memset(). Since s_sys_blocksize is u32,
a crafted filesystem image with s_sys_blocksize < OMFS_DIR_START causes
an unsigned underflow there, wrapping to a value near 2^32. That drives
a ~4 GiB memset() from bh->b_data + OMFS_DIR_START and overwrites kernel
memory far beyond the backing block buffer.

Add the corresponding lower-bound check alongside the existing upper-bound
check in omfs_fill_super(), so that malformed images are rejected during
superblock validation before any filesystem data is processed.

🚨 CVE-2026-54297
Faraday is an HTTP client library abstraction layer that provides a common interface over many adapters. From 1.0.0 until 1.10.6 and 2.14.3, Faraday::NestedParamsEncoder, the default nested query parameter encoder/decoder in Faraday, decodes nested query strings without enforcing a maximum nesting depth. A crafted query string causes Faraday to build a deeply nested Ruby Hash structure. The internal dehash routine then recursively walks this attacker-controlled structure without a depth limit. At sufficient depth, Ruby raises an uncaught SystemStackError (stack level too deep), crashing the calling thread or worker. This can lead to denial of service in applications that pass attacker-controlled query strings to Faraday's nested query parsing or URL-building paths. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.10.6 and 2.14.3.

🚨 CVE-2026-54904
concurrent-ruby is a modern concurrency tools for Ruby. Prior to 1.3.7, Concurrent::AtomicReference#update can enter a permanent busy retry loop when the current value is Float::NAN. The issue is caused by the interaction between AtomicReference#update, which retries until compare_and_set(old_value, new_value) succeeds; Numeric compare_and_set, which checks old == old_value before attempting the underlying atomic swap.; and Ruby NaN semantics, where Float::NAN == Float::NAN is always false. As a result, once an AtomicReference contains Float::NAN, calling #update repeatedly evaluates the caller's block and never returns. In services that store externally derived numeric values in an AtomicReference, this can cause CPU exhaustion or permanent request/job hangs. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.3.7.

🚨 CVE-2026-54905
concurrent-ruby is a modern concurrency tools for Ruby. Prior to 1.3.7, Concurrent::ReentrantReadWriteLock can incorrectly grant a write lock after one thread acquires the read lock 32,768 times. The lock stores a thread's local read and write hold counts in one integer. The low 15 bits are used for the read hold count, and bit 15 is used as WRITE_LOCK_HELD. After 32,768 reentrant read acquisitions, the local read count crosses into the write-lock bit. try_write_lock then treats the thread as already holding a write lock and returns true without setting the global RUNNING_WRITER bit. This breaks the core mutual-exclusion guarantee: the caller is told it has a write lock, but other threads can still hold or acquire read locks at the same time. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.3.7.

🚨 CVE-2026-54906
concurrent-ruby is a modern concurrency tools for Ruby. Prior to 1.3.7, Concurrent::ReadWriteLock#release_write_lock does not verify that the calling thread acquired the write lock. Any thread with access to the lock object can release an active write lock held by another thread. A second writer can then enter its critical section while the first writer is still running. Concurrent::ReadWriteLock#release_read_lock also decrements the shared counter even when no read lock is held. Calling it on a fresh lock changes the counter from 0 to -1, after which normal read acquisition raises Concurrent::ResourceLimitError. This is a synchronization correctness issue in the public Concurrent::ReadWriteLock API. This vulnerability is fixed in 1.3.7.
