| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: Fix uninitialized memcache pointer in user_mem_abort()
Commit fce886a60207 ("KVM: arm64: Plumb the pKVM MMU in KVM") made the
initialization of the local memcache variable in user_mem_abort()
conditional, leaving a codepath where it is used uninitialized via
kvm_pgtable_stage2_map().
This can fail on any path that requires a stage-2 allocation
without transition via a permission fault or dirty logging.
Fix this by making sure that memcache is always valid. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pds_core: handle unsupported PDS_CORE_CMD_FW_CONTROL result
If the FW doesn't support the PDS_CORE_CMD_FW_CONTROL command
the driver might at the least print garbage and at the worst
crash when the user runs the "devlink dev info" devlink command.
This happens because the stack variable fw_list is not 0
initialized which results in fw_list.num_fw_slots being a
garbage value from the stack. Then the driver tries to access
fw_list.fw_names[i] with i >= ARRAY_SIZE and runs off the end
of the array.
Fix this by initializing the fw_list and by not failing
completely if the devcmd fails because other useful information
is printed via devlink dev info even if the devcmd fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: Initialize ctx to avoid memory allocation error
It is possible that ctx in nfqnl_build_packet_message() could be used
before it is properly initialize, which is only initialized
by nfqnl_get_sk_secctx().
This patch corrects this problem by initializing the lsmctx to a safe
value when it is declared.
This is similar to the commit 35fcac7a7c25
("audit: Initialize lsmctx to avoid memory allocation error"). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conncount: Fully initialize struct nf_conncount_tuple in insert_tree()
Since commit b36e4523d4d5 ("netfilter: nf_conncount: fix garbage
collection confirm race"), `cpu` and `jiffies32` were introduced to
the struct nf_conncount_tuple.
The commit made nf_conncount_add() initialize `conn->cpu` and
`conn->jiffies32` when allocating the struct.
In contrast, count_tree() was not changed to initialize them.
By commit 34848d5c896e ("netfilter: nf_conncount: Split insert and
traversal"), count_tree() was split and the relevant allocation
code now resides in insert_tree().
Initialize `conn->cpu` and `conn->jiffies32` in insert_tree().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: consolidate suboption status
MPTCP maintains the received sub-options status is the bitmask carrying
the received suboptions and in several bitfields carrying per suboption
additional info.
Zeroing the bitmask before parsing is not enough to ensure a consistent
status, and the MPTCP code has to additionally clear some bitfiled
depending on the actually parsed suboption.
The above schema is fragile, and syzbot managed to trigger a path where
a relevant bitfield is not cleared/initialized:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: ccp - Do not initialize SNP for ioctl(SNP_VLEK_LOAD)
Sashiko notes:

The SEV firmware docs for SNP_VLEK_LOAD note:
> On SNP_SHUTDOWN, the VLEK is deleted.
That is, the initialization/shutdown wrapper here is pointless, because the
firmware immediately throws away the key anyway. Instead, refuse to do
anything if SNP has not been previously initialized.
This is an ABI break: before, this was a no-op and almost certainly a
mistake by userspace, and now it returns -ENODEV. ABI compatibility could be
maintained here by simply returning 0 in the check instead. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_fs: Initialize epfile->in early to fix endpoint direction checks
When parsing endpoint descriptors, ffs_data_got_descs() generates the
eps_addrmap which contains the endpoint direction. However, epfile->in
was previously only populated in ffs_func_eps_enable() which executes
upon USB host connection. As a result, early userspace ioctls like
FUNCTIONFS_DMABUF_ATTACH that run before the host connects would see
epfile->in as 0, leading to incorrect DMA directions.
By moving the initialization to ffs_epfiles_create(), epfile->in is
accurate before userspace opens the endpoint files. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hfs/hfsplus: zero-initialize buffer in hfs_bnode_read
hfs_bnode_read() can return early without writing to the output buffer
when is_bnode_offset_valid() fails or when check_and_correct_requested_
length() corrects the length to zero. Callers such as hfs_bnode_read_
u16() and hfs_bnode_read_u8() pass stack-allocated buffers and use the
result unconditionally, leading to KMSAN uninit-value reports.
Rather than initializing at each individual call site, zero the buffer
at the start of hfs_bnode_read() before any validation checks. This
ensures all callers in both hfs and hfsplus get a deterministic zero
value regardless of which early-return path is taken. |
| Use of uninitialized resource in Microsoft Windows App Store allows an authorized attacker to disclose information locally. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: pressure: bmp280: fix stack leak in bmp580 trigger handler
bmp580_trigger_handler() declares its scan buffer on the stack without
an initializer and then memcpy()s 3 bytes of 24-bit sensor data into
each 4-byte __le32 field. The high byte of comp_temp and comp_press is
left uninitialized, and the channel storagebits is 32, so two bytes of
stack are pushed to userspace per scan.
This is a regression from when the buffer lived in the private data, the
move to a stack-local struct dropped the implicit zeroing.
bme280_trigger_handler() was fixed up to handle this bug, but this
driver was not fixed because there was no padding hole, but rather a
short-fill issue.
Fix this all by just zero-initializing the structure on the stack. |
| NGINX Plus and NGINX Open Source have a vulnerability in the ngx_http_slice_module module. When the slice directive and unnamed regex captures are configured or when a background cache update happens, unauthenticated attackers can send requests that may cause uninitialized memory access in the NGINX worker process, leading to limited disclosure of memory or a restart.
Impact:
This vulnerability may allow remote, unauthenticated attackers to have limited control to disclose memory contents or restart the NGINX worker process. There is no control plane exposure; this is a data plane issue only.
Note: The ngx_http_slice_module module is not enabled by default; it's enabled with the --with-http_slice_module configuration parameter.
Note: Software versions which have reached End of Technical Support (EoTS) are not evaluated. |
| FFmpeg through 8.1.2, fixed in commit 8670835, contains an information disclosure vulnerability in the LCL/ZLIB video decoder that allows attackers to expose uninitialized heap memory by supplying a valid zlib stream that inflates to fewer bytes than the expected frame size. The zlib_decomp() function in lcldec.c treats short decompression as non-fatal and continues to the RGB24 conversion path, which copies a full frame's worth of rows from the allocation buffer using original frame dimensions, causing uninitialized heap contents including pointer-derived allocator bytes to be copied into the attacker-observable AVFrame output and potentially defeating ASLR in long-lived media processing services. |
| libssh2 through 1.11.1, fixed in commit a13bb6c, contains a missing bounds check vulnerability that allows a malicious SSH server to trigger an arbitrary-length heap out-of-bounds read and a free of an uninitialized pointer via the publickey subsystem. In libssh2_publickey_list_fetch(), the version 1 response parser reads a server-controlled comment_len value and advances the parse pointer without verifying sufficient bytes remain in the buffer, causing the out-of-bounds read to leak heap pointers from adjacent allocations defeating ASLR, followed by heap allocator state corruption when the error cleanup path frees an uninitialized pointer from a non-zeroed realloc() region. |
| libheif is a HEIF and AVIF file format decoder and encoder. Prior to version 1.22.0, two bugs in libheif chain to leak process heap memory as visible pixel values in decoded grid images. An attacker who uploads a crafted AVIF/HEIC file to any server-side image processor (WordPress, Sharp/libvips, ImageMagick, etc.) can recover heap data - including library function pointers sufficient to defeat ASLR, or any other secret - from the publicly-downloadable transcoded JPEG/PNG/WebP output. Local attack vectors are also possible. Version 1.22.0 fixes the issue. |

crypto: ccp - Do not initialize SNP for SEV ioctls
Sashiko notes:

sev_move_to_init_state() is called for ioctls requiring only SEV firmware:
SEV_PEK_GEN, SEV_PDH_GEN, SEV_PEK_CSR, SEV_PEK_CERT_IMPORT, and
SEV_PDH_CERT_EXPORT. After the firmware command, it does SEV_SHUTDOWN on
the SEV firmware. Since these commands do not require SNP to be
initialized, skip it by calling __sev_platform_init_locked() which only
initializes the SEV firmware. This way SNP is not Initialized at all, and
HSAVE_PA is not cleared.
The previous code saved any SEV initialization firmware error to
init_args.error and then threw it away and hardcoded the return value of
INVALID_PLATFORM_STATE regardless of the real firmware error. This patch
changes it to surface the underlying error, which is hopefully both more
useful and doesn't cause any problems.
Note that it is still safe to call __sev_firmware_shutdown() directly: it
calls __sev_snp_shutdown_locked(), which skips SNP shutdown if SNP was not
initialized. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: imu: adis16550: fix stack leak in trigger handler
adis16550_trigger_handler() declares the scan data array on the stack
without initializing it. The memcpy() at the bottom fills only the
first 28 bytes (TEMP + 6 channels of GYRO/ACCEL data), and
iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp() writes the s64 timestamp at the
8-byte-aligned offset 32. Bytes 28-31 remain uninitialized stack data
which leaks to userspace on ever trigger.
Fix this all by just zero-initializing the structure on the stack. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: imu: st_lsm6dsx: fix stack leak in tagged FIFO buffer
The tagged FIFO path declares iio_buff on the stack with __aligned(8)
but no initializer, but there is a hole in the structure, which will
then leak to userspace as ST_LSM6DSX_SAMPLE_SIZE bytes (6) will be
copied, but the space between that and the timestamp are not
initialized.
Commit c14edb4d0bdc ("iio:imu:st_lsm6dsx Fix alignment and data leak
issues") moved the untagged FIFO path to a kzalloc'd buffer in hw->scan,
but for the tagged path it only added the alignment qualifier and not
the initializer :(
Fix this by just zero-initializing the structure on the stack. |

crypto: ccp - Do not initialize SNP for ioctl(SNP_COMMIT)

The SNP_COMMIT command does not require the firmware to be in any
particular state. Skip initializing it if it was previously uninitialized.
The SEV-SNP firmware specification doc 56860 does not mention SNP_COMMIT in
Table 5 as a command that is allowed in the UNINIT state, but it is in fact
allowed and a future documentation update will reflect that. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: seq: Fix uninitialised heap leak in snd_seq_event_dup()
snd_seq_event_dup() copies an incoming event into a pool cell and, in
the UMP-enabled build, clears the trailing cell->ump.raw.extra word that
the memcpy() did not cover. The guard deciding whether to clear it
compares the copied size against sizeof(cell->event):
memcpy(&cell->ump, event, size);
if (size < sizeof(cell->event))
cell->ump.raw.extra = 0;
For a legacy (non-UMP) event, size == sizeof(struct snd_seq_event) ==
sizeof(cell->event), so the condition is false and the extra word keeps
stale data. The cell pool is allocated with kvmalloc() (not zeroed) and
cells are reused via a free list, so that word holds uninitialised heap
or leftover event data.
When such a cell is delivered to a UMP client (client->midi_version > 0)
that set SNDRV_SEQ_FILTER_NO_CONVERT -- so the legacy event reaches it
unconverted -- snd_seq_read() reads it out as the larger struct
snd_seq_ump_event and copies the stale word to user space, a 4-byte
kernel heap infoleak to an unprivileged /dev/snd/seq client.
Compare against sizeof(cell->ump) instead, so the trailing word is zeroed
for every event shorter than the UMP cell. |
