| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
device property: fix infinite loop in fwnode_for_each_child_node()
When iterate over children of a fwnode that has a secondary fwnode,
fwnode_get_next_child_node() can enter an infinite loop if the secondary
fwnode has more than one child.
Parent Child
(Primary fwnode) FWa: {FWa1, FWa2, FWa3}
(Secondary fwnode) FWb: {FWb1, FWb2}
In this case:
┌─> fwnode_get_next_child_node(FWa, FWa1)
│ - fwnode_call_ptr_op(FWa, get_next_child_node, FWa1) returns FWa2
│
│ ...
│
│ fwnode_get_next_child_node(FWa, FWa3)
│ - fwnode_call_ptr_op(FWa, get_next_child_node, FWa3) returns NULL
│ - fwnode_call_ptr_op(FWb, get_next_child_node, FWa3) returns FWb1
│
│ fwnode_get_next_child_node(FWa, FWb1)
│ - fwnode_call_ptr_op(FWa, get_next_child_node, FWb1) returns FWa1
└────┘
This cause fwnode_for_each_child_node() to loop indefinitely, reapeatedly
output {FWa1, FWa2, FWa3, FWb1, FWa1, ...}.
The root cause is that when the current child (FWb1) belongs to the
secondary fwnode, calling get_next_child_node() on the parimary fwnode
incorrectly returns the first child (FWa1) again instead of NULL.
Fix this by dynamically checking the parent fwnode of the current child
before calling get_next_child_node(). This approach follows the pattern
established in commit b5b41ab6b0c1 ("device property: Check
fwnode->secondary in fwnode_graph_get_next_endpoint()"). |

usb: gadget: f_fs: Prevent deadlock during ep0 read loop
Currently, ffs_ep0_read() holds ffs->mutex when it prepares to go to
sleep waiting for an event. When no setup events are pending, it calls
wait_event_interruptible_exclusive_locked_irq() with the mutex still
held. The wait macro deliberately drops the waitqueue spinlock before
sleeping but does not drop the mutex.
If a userspace daemon is polling ep0 via read() and the gadget is
asynchronously torn down via configfs (e.g., echo "" > UDC), a
deadlock can occur:
1. The configfs teardown calls functionfs_unbind(), which queues a
FUNCTIONFS_UNBIND event.
2. The daemon wakes up, consumes the event, and drops the mutex.
3. However, if the daemon loops and immediately issues another read()
before exiting, it reacquires ffs->mutex and again goes into an
interruptible sleep.
4. Meanwhile, functionfs_unbind() continues execution and attempts to
acquire ffs->mutex to tear down ep0req.
5. The kernel deadlocks because the configfs thread is stuck in an
uninterruptible sleep waiting for the mutex, while the userspace
daemon is in an interruptible sleep holding the mutex forever
because no more events will arrive.
To fix this, we drop both the waitqueue spinlock and ffs->mutex before
going to sleep, and use wait_event_interruptible_exclusive() instead.
Upon waking up, we jump back to the `retry` label to safely reacquire
the mutex and re-evaluate the state machine. By not sleeping with
ffs->mutex held, we natively decouple gadget teardowns (which require
the mutex) from userspace polling. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: do not repeat ceph_trim_dentries() if no progress possible
ceph_cap_reclaim_work() re-queues itself for as long as
ceph_trim_dentries() returns -EAGAIN, which happens whenever a lease
walk exhausts its `nr_to_scan` budget. This creates a busy loop that
consumes CPU without making any progress when there is nothing to
reclaim: with no cap pressure (`count==0`) and every scanned lease
still valid, each pass runs the full scan budget down to zero and
returns `-EAGAIN`, only to be queued again immediately.
The dir-lease walk made this worse. When `expire_dir_lease` is
`false` (i.e. we have no intention of reclaiming dir leases),
__dir_lease_check() returned `TOUCH` for every valid lease. `TOUCH`
moves the dentry to the tail of the list and resets `di->time` via
__dentry_dir_lease_touch(), so a walk over N valid leases pointlessly
rewrote the list, refreshed the timestamps (preventing them from ever
aging out) and always drained `nr_to_scan`, guaranteeing the `-EAGAIN`
requeue.
Fix this in three steps:
- Return `KEEP` instead of `TOUCH` when `expire_dir_lease` is
`false`. If we are not going to reclaim the lease, leave it in
place instead of churning the list and resetting its timestamp; the
walk then terminates naturally (or via `STOP` at the first fresh
lease).
- Only return `-EAGAIN` from the first (dentry-lease) walk when something
was actually freed. A full batch that frees nothing means retrying
the same list immediately is futile; fall through to the dir-lease
walk instead.
- After both walks, bail out with success (0) when nothing was freed
and there is no cap pressure (`count==0`). There is no reason to
keep retrying when we are not over the cap limit and made no
progress.
Under real cap pressure (`count>0`) the reclaim path is unchanged and
still retries via `-EAGAIN`.
Without this patch, I saw 500 ceph_trim_dentries() calls per second on
our web servers. This is very visible in `/proc/lock_stat` (5 minute
capture):

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-io: clone the source bio instead of copying its biovec
For DM_IO_BIO requests, do_region() built each destination bio by walking
the source bio's biovec and re-adding the pages one at a time, tracking
the remaining transfer in sectors. The vector lengths are byte granular
and need not be sector aligned (e.g. a misaligned O_DIRECT buffer split
across pages), so the sector-based accounting could lose a sub-sector
fragment: to_sector() truncated the remainder and the outer loop spun
forever submitting empty bios, hanging the I/O.
There is no need to rebuild the biovec at all. The destination reads into
(or writes from) exactly the same pages as the source bio, so the bio can
simply clone the source's biovec with bio_alloc_clone() and remap it to
the target device. The clone inherits the source's iterator and alignment,
and the block layer splits it to the target's limits on submission, so the
whole region maps to a single cloned bio with no manual page copying or
sector accounting.
This removes the per-page copy path (and its open-coded bvec dpages
helpers) for bio-backed I/O and fixes the hang on misaligned direct I/O to
a dm-mirror device. Page-list, vma and kmem sources keep the existing copy
path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jbd2: bound shrinker scans by examined checkpoint buffers
The jbd2 shrinker currently accounts only checkpoint buffers that it
successfully releases against nr_to_scan. Busy buffers therefore do not
consume the scan budget.
If a checkpoint transaction contains mostly busy buffers, the shrinker
can scan its entire checkpoint list while holding journal->j_list_lock.
Large checkpoint lists can result in excessive lock hold times and leave
other CPUs spinning on j_list_lock, causing soft lockups or RCU stalls.
Pass nr_to_scan into journal_shrink_one_cp_list() and decrement it for
every buffer examined, including busy buffers. Pass NULL from checkpoint
cleanup paths so their existing full-list behavior is preserved.
This restores the scan-budget semantics that existed before
journal_shrink_one_cp_list() was changed to always scan a complete
checkpoint list. |

sched_ext: Fix this_rq() assumptions in dispatch kfuncs
Under core scheduling, dispatch runs from within the core-wide pick and can
target a sibling rq, so ops.dispatch() may execute on a CPU different from
the dispatched rq's. Several kfunc paths assumed the two always coincide:
- scx_dsq_move() decided whether an rq lock is held by testing this_rq()'s
rq flags and lock-danced accordingly. A dispatch for a sibling took the
unlocked-context branch and acquired the source rq lock on top of the
already held dispatched rq lock which could deadlock.
- scx_bpf_sub_dispatch() dispatched this_rq() with its stashed
sub_dispatch_prev, which is NULL when dispatching for a sibling.
- finish_dispatch(), scx_bpf_dsq_reenq() and scx_bpf_dsq_nr_queued()
resolved SCX_DSQ_LOCAL to this CPU's local DSQ rather than the dispatched
rq's. The latter two are callable from other rq-locked operations too,
where SCX_DSQ_LOCAL now likewise resolves to the op's rq. This changes
behavior also without core scheduling, e.g. for ops.enqueue() running a
remote wakeup on the waking CPU, and is intended: which CPU happens to
execute an operation is incidental, the op's rq is what it is operating
on, and the resolution now matches the insert side where SCX_DSQ_LOCAL
dispatches land on the task's rq.
Use the rq tracked by scx_locked_rq(), which is set to the dispatched rq
around ops invocations and NULL in unlocked contexts. |

dm-pcache: detect a cycle in the last-kset chain during replay
cache_replay() follows the on-media last-kset chain by next_cache_seg_id
with no cond_resched(). A forged chain that points back into a segment it
has already visited makes the replay loop follow it forever.
Cap the last-kset hops at cache->n_segs; a valid chain visits each segment
at most once. |
| strongSwan 4.6.2 through 6.0.7 has an infinite loop in PKCS#5 decryption. |
| zstd-jni versions 1.4.8-4 through 1.5.7-13 fail to validate negative length parameters in ZstdInputStreamNoFinalizer.read(), allowing attackers to trigger infinite loops. Attackers can pass negative length values to cause the read method to spin indefinitely while holding the stream monitor, blocking all other threads from accessing the stream. |
| strongSwan 5.1.3 through 6.0.7 has an infinite loop in the x509 plugin's attribute certificate parser for ietfAttrSyntax. |
| Open WebUI is an extensible, feature-rich, and user-friendly self-hosted AI platform. From 0.10.0 until 0.11.1, DELETE /api/v1/chats/{id}/messages/{message_id} used the chat-history deletion helper in backend/open_webui/models/chats.py to follow childrenIds without recording visited message identifiers. An authenticated user could store a cyclic chat tree and delete a message, causing a synchronous infinite loop on the server request loop that blocked every user's requests until the process was killed. This issue is fixed in version 0.11.1. |
| PocketMine-MP versions before 5.44.2 fail to properly validate multiple ResourcePackClientResponsePacket packets with STATUS_COMPLETED status during resource pack handling. Malicious clients can send batches of these packets to repeatedly trigger pre-spawn progression, creating duplicate Player objects and amplifying memory consumption and network traffic. |
| Open WebUI is an extensible, feature-rich, and user-friendly self-hosted AI platform. From 0.10.0 until 0.11.1, POST /api/v1/folders/{id}/update/parent allowed a user to place a folder under itself or one of its descendants, while the folder tree walks used by DELETE /api/v1/folders/{id} and POST /api/v1/folders/{id}/read did not track visited folder identifiers. An authenticated user could persist a parent cycle and start a request that consumed CPU and memory indefinitely, with the condition remaining stored until repaired. This issue is fixed in version 0.11.1. |

| Open WebUI is an extensible, feature-rich, and user-friendly self-hosted AI platform. From 0.5.0 until 0.11.1, the message-chain reconstruction helper in backend/open_webui/utils/misc.py advanced through a chat history by map key but tracked visited entries using each message body's optional id field. An authenticated user could store id-less messages in a parent cycle and trigger a non-terminating walk that blocked the async event loop, grew memory until termination, and remained persistent across process restarts. This issue is fixed in version 0.11.1. |
| Previously, a channel registered in the mux's chanList is not usable until it is established. A malicious peer was able flood the channel's incomingRequests, deadlocking the entire connection. Now, we add an atomic established state, set when a channel becomes usable. Until such a time, handlePacket drops every packet other than the open confirmation/failure, without blocking and without tearing down the connection. |
| smol-toml is a small, fast, and correct TOML parser and serializer. Prior to 1.7.1, parse() can enter an infinite loop when a value inside an array or inline table is followed by a comment with no trailing newline. In src/util.ts, skipUntil() calls indexOfNewline(), receives -1 at the end of input, and resets the cursor to the beginning of the string instead of leaving the structure scan. The parser then hangs indefinitely and can consume a service's processing capacity when an application parses attacker-controlled TOML. This issue is fixed in version 1.7.1. |

| pyasn1 is a generic ASN.1 library for Python. Prior to 0.6.3, the `pyasn1` library is vulnerable to a Denial of Service (DoS) attack caused by uncontrolled recursion when decoding ASN.1 data with deeply nested structures. An attacker can supply a crafted payload containing thousands of nested `SEQUENCE` (`0x30`) or `SET` (`0x31`) tags with "Indefinite Length" (`0x80`) markers. This forces the decoder to recursively call itself until the Python interpreter crashes with a `RecursionError` or consumes all available memory (OOM), crashing the host application. This is a distinct vulnerability from CVE-2026-23490 (which addressed integer overflows in OID decoding). The fix for CVE-2026-23490 (`MAX_OID_ARC_CONTINUATION_OCTETS`) does not mitigate this recursion issue. Version 0.6.3 fixes this specific issue. |
