Affected: Linux

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

ocfs2: fix listxattr handling when the buffer is full

[BUG] If an OCFS2 inode has both inline and block-based xattrs, listxattr() can return a size larger than the caller's buffer when the inline names consume that buffer exactly.

kernel BUG at mm/usercopy.c:102! Oops: invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI RIP: 0010:usercopy_abort+0xb7/0xd0 mm/usercopy.c:102 Call Trace: __check_heap_object+0xe3/0x120 mm/slub.c:8243 check_heap_object mm/usercopy.c:196 [inline] __check_object_size mm/usercopy.c:250 [inline] __check_object_size+0x5c5/0x780 mm/usercopy.c:215 check_object_size include/linux/ucopysize.h:22 [inline] check_copy_size include/linux/ucopysize.h:59 [inline] copy_to_user include/linux/uaccess.h:219 [inline] listxattr+0xb0/0x170 fs/xattr.c:926 filename_listxattr fs/xattr.c:958 [inline] path_listxattrat+0x137/0x320 fs/xattr.c:988 __do_sys_listxattr fs/xattr.c:1001 [inline] __se_sys_listxattr fs/xattr.c:998 [inline] __x64_sys_listxattr+0x7f/0xd0 fs/xattr.c:998 ...

[CAUSE] Commit 936b8834366e ("ocfs2: Refactor xattr list and remove ocfs2_xattr_handler().") replaced the old per-handler list accounting with ocfs2_xattr_list_entry(), but it kept using size == 0 to detect probe mode.

That assumption stops being true once ocfs2_listxattr() finishes the inline-xattr pass. If the inline names fill the caller buffer exactly, the block-xattr pass runs with a non-NULL buffer and a remaining size…

It was discovered that some AMD Zen 2 processors did not properly isolate shared resources in the operation cache. A local attacker could possibly use this issue to corrupt instructions executed at a higher privilege level, resulting in privilege escalation. (CVE-2025-54518)

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: - PSP security protocol; - ARM64 architecture; - PowerPC architecture; - RISC-V architecture; - S390 architecture; - User-Mode Linux (UML); - x86 architecture; - Block layer subsystem; - Cryptographic API; - Intel NPU Driver; - DRBD Distributed Replicated Block Device drivers; - Ublk userspace block driver; - Bluetooth drivers; - Bus devices; - Character device driver; - Clock framework and drivers; - CPU frequency scaling framework; - Hardware crypto device drivers; - EDAC drivers; - EFI core; - FWCTL subsystem; - GPU drivers; - HID subsystem; - I3C subsystem; - InfiniBand drivers; - IOMMU subsystem; - Mailbox framework; - Multiple devices driver; - Media drivers; - NVIDIA Tegra memory controller driver; - MTD block device drivers; - Network drivers; - Ethernet bonding driver; - Mellanox network drivers; - Microsoft Azure Network Adapter (MANA) driver; - STMicroelectronics network drivers; - MediaTek network drivers; - NVME drivers; - PCI subsystem;…
