| IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM PowerVM VIOS 4.1 could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service due to the use of an uninitialized stack pointer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
VDUSE: avoid leaking information to userspace
The bounceing is not necessarily page aligned, so current VDUSE can
leak kernel information through mapping bounce pages to
userspace. Allocate bounce pages with __GFP_ZERO to avoid leaking
information to userspace. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: prevent potential lcn remains uninitialized
The target VCN being sought was not found within runs[0], causing
run_lookup() to return false. This causes run_lookup_entry() to return
false, which in turn results in a len value of 0, and the new parameter
passed to attr_data_get_block() is NULL. Collectively, these factors
ultimately cause attr_data_get_block_locked() to exit prematurely without
initializing lcn, thereby triggering [1].
To prevent [1], the clen check within ni_seek_data_or_hole() has been
moved to occur before the lcn check.

| Libevent is an event notification library. Prior to 2.1.13 and 2.2.2-alpha, libevent has a use-after-free in buffer.c when evbuffer_add_buffer_reference processes an output buffer whose out_total_len is zero. evbuffer_free_all_chains frees the initial empty chain without resetting outbuf->first, outbuf->last, or outbuf->last_with_datap, and APPEND_CHAIN_MULTICAST subsequently dereferences the dangling chain pointer. A caller that can drive this buffer state can cause memory corruption or a process crash. This issue is fixed in versions 2.1.13 and 2.2.2-alpha. |
| libheif is a HEIF and AVIF file format decoder and encoder. In 1.23.0 and earlier, a crafted HEIF sequence accepted by heif_context_read_from_memory() can leave the context with no registered sequence tracks and crash when heif_context_get_track(ctx, 0) is called. HeifContext::get_track() in libheif/context.cc executes assert(has_sequence()) before its normal error handling, so assert-enabled builds abort instead of allowing the public wrapper in libheif/api/libheif/heif_sequences.cc to return null. In release builds, removing the assertion lets the track_id zero path dereference m_tracks.begin()->second on an empty map, which is undefined behavior and typically crashes. The issue is reachable through documented public APIs after parsing attacker-controlled bytes. This issue is fixed in version 1.23.1. |
| Use of uninitialized resource in GPU in Google Chrome prior to 151.0.7922.169 allowed a remote attacker who had compromised the renderer process to read memory outside the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High) |
| A flaw was found in SSSD. The sss_nss_protocol_fill_initgr() function in the NSS responder pre-allocates reply space for all group entries but does not shrink the packet when groups are skipped, causing uninitialized heap bytes to be transmitted to the client. A local attacker can exploit this to disclose cached directory data and heap layout information from the sssd_nss process. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: uniphier: Fix completion initialization order before devm_request_irq()
The driver calls devm_request_irq() before initializing the completion
used by the interrupt handler. Because the interrupt may occur immediately
after devm_request_irq(), the handler may execute before init_completion().
This may result in calling complete() on an uninitialized completion,
causing undefined behavior. This has been observed with KASAN.
Fix this by initializing the completion before registering the IRQ. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: lan743x: Initialize eth_syslock spinlock before use
lan743x_hardware_init() calls pci11x1x_strap_get_status() during the
PCI11x1x probe sequence. That helper acquires the Ethernet subsystem
hardware lock via lan743x_hs_syslock_acquire(), which relies on
adapter->eth_syslock_spinlock to serialize access.
The spinlock is currently initialized only after the strap status is
read. With CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK enabled, taking the zeroed initialized
spinlock can trip the spinlock debug check.
Fix by initializing adapter->eth_syslock_spinlock before reading the
strap status so the probe path never attempts to lock an uninitialized
spinlock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: fix stack info leak in RME Digiface status
snd_rme_digiface_read_status() reads a four-word status block from the
device into an uninitialised on-stack __le32 buf[4] and, whenever the
vendor control-IN transfer does not return a negative error, copies all
four words into the caller's status[].
snd_usb_ctl_msg() copies the full requested size back into the caller's
buffer regardless of how many bytes the data stage actually delivered:
buf = kmemdup(data, size, GFP_KERNEL);
err = usb_control_msg(dev, pipe, request, requesttype,
value, index, buf, size, timeout);
memcpy(data, buf, size);
usb_control_msg() returns the transferred length on a short control-IN,
which is a non-negative value, and writes only that many bytes. The
remainder of the copy back is the kmemdup()ed image of the caller's
buffer, so a device answering with a short data stage leaves the
trailing words of buf[] holding leftover kernel stack. The only guard
in the caller is err < 0, so those words are stored into status[].
They then reach user space: snd_rme_digiface_get_status_val() selects a
16-bit halfword of status[] per the control's reg/mask, and the eight
Digiface status controls together expose the whole 16-byte frame to an
unprivileged reader of /dev/snd/controlC*.
Zero-initialise the buffer so a short read yields zeros instead of stack
residue. This mirrors snd_rme_get_status1(), which already clears its
output word before the same kind of vendor read.

| IBM i 7.6, 7.5, 7.4, and 7.3 could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service due to the use of uninitialized memory during ASN.1 length processing. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lockd: Avoid hashing uninitialized bytes in nlm4svc_lookup_file()
file_hash() digests the first LOCKD_FH_HASH_SIZE bytes of
nfs_fh.data when bucketing nlm_files[], independent of fh.size.
Commit 3de744ee4e45 ("lockd: Use xdrgen XDR functions for the
NLMv4 TEST procedure") set .pc_argzero to zero for the converted
procedures and moved file-handle population into
nlm4svc_lookup_file(), which copies only xdr_lock->fh.len bytes
into lock->fh.data.
When an NLMv4 client presents a file handle shorter than
LOCKD_FH_HASH_SIZE, bytes fh.len..31 retain whatever the argument
buffer held from an earlier request. The same wire handle then
hashes to different buckets across calls; nlm_lookup_file() misses
the existing nlm_file entry, and lock-state lookups fail.
Zero only the tail bytes that file_hash() would otherwise consume.
Handles of LOCKD_FH_HASH_SIZE or larger already populate every byte
that file_hash() reads. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mana: initialize gdma queue id to INVALID_QUEUE_ID
mana_gd_create_mana_wq_cq() leaves queue->id as 0 (from kzalloc_obj())
until mana_create_wq_obj() assigns the firmware-returned id. If creation
fails before that, cleanup calls mana_gd_destroy_cq() with id 0, NULLing
gc->cq_table[0] and silently breaking whichever real CQ owns that slot.
Initialize queue->id to INVALID_QUEUE_ID right after allocation, matching
mana_gd_create_eq(). The existing (id >= max_num_cqs) guard then
short-circuits cleanly. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: magnetometer: ak8975: fix potential kernel stack memory leak
Currently in the AK8975 driver there are four instances where potential
uninitialized kernel stack memory leaks can occur. If
i2c_smbus_read_i2c_block_data_or_emulated() returns a value less than
the size of the buffer, uninitialized bytes are retained in the buffer
and later the buffer is passed on to IIO buffers, potentially leaking
memory to userspace.
Fix this by adding checks whether the return value of the function is
equal to the size of the buffer and subsequently if the value is
lesser than zero to distinguish from a returned error code. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: s390: Initialize KVM_S390_GET_CMMA_BITS memory
kvm_s390_get_cmma_bits() allocates its output buffer with vmalloc(),
which does not zero the returned pages:
values = vmalloc(args->count);
In the non-peek (migration) path, dat_get_cmma() reports a byte count
spanning from the first to the last dirty page, but __dat_get_cmma_pte()
writes values[gfn - start] only for pages whose CMMA dirty bit is set.
The walk uses DAT_WALK_IGN_HOLES, so clean and unmapped pages that lie
between two dirty pages within the reported span are visited but never
store their byte. Those gaps (up to KVM_S390_MAX_BIT_DISTANCE pages
each) stay uninitialized yet fall inside [0, count) and are copied out
by copy_to_user(), disclosing stale kernel memory to user space.
Before the switch to the new gmap implementation the buffer was fully
populated for every gfn in the span, so no uninitialized bytes were
exposed; the dirty-only walk introduced the leak.
Use vzalloc() so the gaps read back as zero. |
| rsync 3.0.0 before 3.5.0 contains a null pointer dereference vulnerability in the daemon child process that allows remote attackers to crash the daemon by sending a file list whose first entry is a dot entry not typed as a directory. The daemon dereferences the first file list entry as a directory structure pointer without verifying the entry type, resulting in an invalid or uninitialized pointer dereference that terminates the client connection. |
