CVE-2025-22044 — acpi: nfit: fix narrowing conversion in acpi_nfit_ctl

Affected: Linux

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

acpi: nfit: fix narrowing conversion in acpi_nfit_ctl

Syzkaller has reported a warning in to_nfit_bus_uuid(): "only secondary bus families can be translated". This warning is emited if the argument is equal to NVDIMM_BUS_FAMILY_NFIT == 0. Function acpi_nfit_ctl() first verifies that a user-provided value call_pkg->nd_family of type u64 is not equal to 0. Then the value is converted to int, and only after that is compared to NVDIMM_BUS_FAMILY_MAX. This can lead to passing an invalid argument to acpi_nfit_ctl(), if call_pkg->nd_family is non-zero, while the lower 32 bits are zero.

Furthermore, it is best to return EINVAL immediately upon seeing the invalid user input. The WARNING is insufficient to prevent further undefined behavior based on other invalid user input.

All checks of the input value should be applied to the original variable call_pkg->nd_family.

Michael Randrianantenaina discovered that the Bluetooth driver in the Linux Kernel contained an improper access control vulnerability. A nearby attacker could use this to connect a rougue device and possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-8805)

It was discovered that the CIFS network file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly verify the target namespace when handling upcalls. An attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2025-2312)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - PowerPC architecture; - x86 architecture; - ACPI drivers; - Clock framework and drivers; - GPU drivers; - HID subsystem; - InfiniBand drivers; - Media drivers; - MemoryStick subsystem; - Network drivers; - Mellanox network drivers; - NTB driver; - PCI subsystem; - Voltage and Current Regulator drivers; - Remote Processor subsystem; - SCSI subsystem; - QCOM SoC drivers; - Thermal drivers; - BTRFS file system; - Ext4 file system; - JFS file system; - Network file system (NFS) server daemon; - NTFS3 file system; - File systems infrastructure; - Proc file system; - SMB network file system; - IPv6 networking; - RDMA verbs API; - SoC audio core drivers; - Tracing infrastructure; - Watch queue notification mechanism; - 802.1Q VLAN protocol; - Asynchronous Transfer Mo…
