🚨 CVE-2026-74497
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Clamp frame size in implicit-feedback mode
snd_usb_handle_sync_urb() scales received sync packet sizes by the sender's
stride and stores the result directly in out_packet->packet_size[i]. If a
connected USB device sends an oversized sync packet, this frame count can
exceed ep->maxframesize.
The un-clamped frame count then propagates to the playback endpoint queue,
potentially driving packet transfers beyond the endpoint's hardware frame
limits.
Cap the calculated frame count against ep->maxframesize in
snd_usb_handle_sync_urb() to prevent oversized packets from entering the
playback queue.

🚨 CVE-2026-74498
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Fix DMA buffer out-of-bounds write when fill_max is set
When a USB audio endpoint requests full packet transfers via the fill_max
descriptor flag, data_ep_set_params() promotes ep->curpacksize to
ep->maxpacksize. However, maxsize is left at the original sample-rate
derived value.
Since u->buffer_size is allocated as maxsize * packets, the resulting
DMA buffer is far too small for the requested transfer length. When the
USB host controller streams up to curpacksize bytes per packet, it writes
past the end of the buffer via DMA, corrupting kernel heap memory.
Update maxsize to curpacksize when fill_max is set so that the allocated
DMA buffer size matches the actual transfer request size.

🚨 CVE-2026-74499
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: fix OOB write in snd_usbmidi_akai_output()
snd_usbmidi_akai_output() computes its fill-loop bound
buf_end = ep->max_transfer - MAX_AKAI_SYSEX_LEN - 1;
as a signed int, so a small device-advertised bulk-OUT max_transfer
makes buf_end negative. The loop guard then compares the u32
urb->transfer_buffer_length against that negative int: the usual
arithmetic conversion turns buf_end into a large unsigned value, so the
guard stays true and each iteration keeps appending SysEx framing and
payload bytes past the end of the URB transfer buffer, which is only
max_transfer bytes long.
A USB device that advertises a tiny bulk-OUT endpoint can therefore
trigger an attacker-length- and content-controlled heap out-of-bounds
write when a process writes to the created /dev/snd/midiC*D* node.
Return early when there is no room for even one SysEx, so the loop is
never entered with a bound that would wrap. The loop is the last
statement of the function, so bailing out is equivalent to it not
running.

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

hidp_recv_ctrl_frame() and hidp_recv_intr_frame() read skb->data[0]
before checking that the L2CAP SDU contains a transaction header. A
connected HIDP peer can send an empty basic-mode SDU and make both paths

KMSAN reports the use in hidp_session_run(), with the uninitialized value

produces two reports and the interrupt path produces one.
The byte can also be controlled by a malformed lower-layer packet. If an

change, the same packet is discarded and a subsequent feature report

`audit_del_rule()` destroys `e->rule.exe` via `audit_remove_mark_rule()`

Fix this by unlinking the rule from the RCU-visible lists and invoking

rule removal helpers). This ensures that all existing RCU readers have
exited the critical section before any underlying resources are destroyed.

🚨 CVE-2026-74540
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: fix UAF in l2cap_le_connect_rsp
l2cap_le_connect_rsp() obtains a channel via
__l2cap_get_chan_by_ident() but neither holds a reference nor uses
l2cap_chan_hold_unless_zero() before locking and operating on it.
A concurrent l2cap_chan_del() triggered by a remote disconnect can
free the channel between the lookup and l2cap_chan_lock(), causing
a use-after-free.
The BR/EDR counterpart l2cap_connect_rsp() and the sibling handler
l2cap_le_command_rej() already use l2cap_chan_hold_unless_zero()
to safely hold a reference, but l2cap_le_connect_rsp() was left
unprotected.
Fix by adding l2cap_chan_hold_unless_zero() after the ident lookup
and l2cap_chan_put() on the exit path, consistent with other L2CAP
response handlers.

🚨 CVE-2026-74546
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (adt7470) Fix divide-by-zero TOCTOU crash in fan speed read
If the fan data becomes 0 between the FAN_DATA_VALID() check and the
FAN_PERIOD_TO_RPM() conversion, it will result in a divide-by-zero crash
due to a race with a concurrent update of the cached fan value.
Fix a TOCTOU issue by reading fan data once.

🚨 CVE-2026-74547
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (adt7470) Fix busy-loop and I2C flooding in update thread
When userspace configures 'auto_update_interval' to 0 via sysfs, the
background kthread executes schedule_timeout_interruptible(0), which
returns immediately.
If 'num_temp_sensors' is concurrently or previously set to 0, the
msleep_interruptible() delay inside adt7470_read_temperatures() also
becomes 0. This combination forces the background thread into a tight,
unbounded busy-loop, hogging the CPU and flooding the I2C bus with a
continuous stream of transactions.
Fix this vulnerability by raising the lower limit of the clamp_val in
auto_update_interval_store() from 0 to 500 milliseconds. This guarantees
a reasonable minimum sleep window between sensor updates, protecting the
system from intentional or accidental I2C bus denial of service.

🚨 CVE-2026-74549
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (nct6775-core) Prevent access to unsupported weight registers
Sashiko reports:
During initialization of the nct6116 chip, the driver sets data->pwm_num
to 5. However, it assigns several NCT6106 register arrays (such as
NCT6106_REG_WEIGHT_DUTY_STEP, NCT6106_REG_WEIGHT_TEMP_SEL, and
NCT6106_REG_WEIGHT_TEMP_*) to data->REG_PWM and data->REG_WEIGHT_TEMP.
These arrays only contain 3 elements.
In nct6775_update_pwm(), the driver iterates up to data->pwm_num. If
data->has_pwm has bits 3 or 4 set (which is structurally possible for
nct6116), the loop attempts to read elements at index 3 and 4 from these
3-element arrays. This results in a global out-of-bounds read, which can
be caught by KASAN.
Furthermore, the driver uses these garbage out-of-bounds values as
hardware register addresses for subsequent read and write operations. This
leads to invalid hardware register access, potentially causing hardware
misconfiguration or system crashes.
The underlying problem is that the chip does support up to five fan
control channels, but only the first three support weight control.
Fix the problem by extending the affected weight register arrays with
zeroed fields. The driver uses zeroed register addresses to determine
if a register is supported or not, and skips accesses for unsupported
registers.

🚨 CVE-2026-74550
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: do not send ICMP/NDISC Redirects when peer allocation fails
When inet_getpeer_v4() or inet_getpeer_v6() fails to allocate a peer entry
under memory pressure or tree size caps, redirect handlers previously fell
back to sending un-rate-limited ICMP/NDISC Redirect messages.
In IPv4, ip_rt_send_redirect() called icmp_send() directly when peer == NULL.
In IPv6, ip6_forward() and ndisc_send_redirect() passed a NULL peer into
inet_peer_xrlim_allow(), which returned true when peer == NULL.
Because ICMP/NDISC Redirects are not part of the default global rate limit
mask (sysctl_icmp_ratemask), sending redirects when peer == NULL creates
an un-rate-limited ICMP packet storm.
Fix this by failing closed in ip_rt_send_redirect(), ip6_forward(), and
ndisc_send_redirect() when peer is NULL.

🚨 CVE-2026-74551
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (nzxt-smart2) DMA-align output buffer
Sashiko reports:
When send_output_report() calls hid_hw_output_report(), the underlying USB
HID core calls usb_interrupt_msg() which maps this buffer directly for DMA.
When the DMA mapping flushes or invalidates the cacheline, it will corrupt
the adjacent variables (mutex, update_interval) that were modified
concurrently by the CPU. This causes memory corruption due to cacheline
sharing on non-coherent CPU architectures (such as ARM or MIPS). The DMA
API debugging tool (CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG) will trigger runtime warnings
for this violation.
Any operation that triggers send_output_report() (like setting a fan speed
or updating the interval) causes the USB DMA mapping. On systems with
non-coherent caches, this structural bug causes immediate and deterministic
memory corruption.
Align the output buffer to ARCH_DMA_MINALIGN to fix the problem.
