CVE-2025-38471 — tls: always refresh the queue when reading sock

Affected: Linux, Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU 1518-4 PN/DP MFP, Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU 1518F-4 PN/DP MFP, Siemens SIPLUS S7-1500 CPU 1518-4 PN/DP MFP

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

tls: always refresh the queue when reading sock

After recent changes in net-next TCP compacts skbs much more aggressively. This unearthed a bug in TLS where we may try to operate on an old skb when checking if all skbs in the queue have matching decrypt state and geometry.

BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in tls_strp_check_rcv+0x898/0x9a0 [tls] (net/tls/tls_strp.c:436 net/tls/tls_strp.c:530 net/tls/tls_strp.c:544) Read of size 4 at addr ffff888013085750 by task tls/13529

Always reload the queue, fast path is to have the record in the queue when we wake, anyway (IOW the path going down "if !strp->stm.full_len").

Affected: Ubuntu:24.04:LTS: linux-hwe-6.14

It was discovered that improper initialization of CPU cache memory could allow a local attacker with hypervisor access to overwrite SEV-SNP guest memory resulting in loss of data integrity. (CVE-2024-36331)

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: - ARM64 architecture; - PowerPC architecture; - S390 architecture; - x86 architecture; - Network block device driver; - Character device driver; - Clock framework and drivers; - Data acquisition framework and drivers; - Hardware crypto device drivers; - Device frequency scaling framework; - DMA engine subsystem; - EDAC drivers; - GPU drivers; - HID subsystem; - Hardware monitoring drivers; - I2C subsystem; - IIO subsystem; - IIO ADC drivers; - InfiniBand drivers; - Input Device core drivers; - Multiple devices driver; - Media drivers; - Network drivers; - Mellanox network drivers; - PCI subsystem; - PHY drivers; - Pin controllers subsystem; - x86 platform drivers; - Power supply drivers; - Powercap sysfs driver; - Voltage and Current Regulator drivers; - S/390 drivers; - ASPEED SoC drivers; - SPI subsystem; - small TFT LCD display modules; - Media staging drivers; - USB Gadget drivers; - vDPA drivers; - VFIO drivers; - Framebuffer layer; - Xen hypervisor drivers; - BTRFS file system; - Ceph distributed file sy…
