CVE-2026-63960 — usb: typec: wcove: don't write past struct pd_message in wcove_read_rx_buffer()

Affected: Linux

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

usb: typec: wcove: don't write past struct pd_message in wcove_read_rx_buffer()

wcove_read_rx_buffer() copies the PD RX FIFO into the caller's struct pd_message with

for (i = 0; i < USBC_RXINFO_RXBYTES(info); i++) regmap_read(wcove->regmap, USBC_RX_DATA + i, msg + i);

which has two problems:

USBC_RXINFO_RXBYTES() is a 5-bit field (max 31) while struct pd_message is 30 bytes (__le16 header + __le32 payload[PD_MAX_PAYLOAD], packed). The byte count latched in RXINFO is the number of bytes the port partner put on the wire, so a malicious partner that transmits a 31-byte frame can drive the loop one byte past the destination if the WCOVE BMC receiver does not enforce the PD object-count limit in hardware. The existing FIXME flagged this as unverified.

Independently, regmap_read() takes an unsigned int * and stores a full unsigned int at the destination. Passing the byte pointer msg + i means each iteration writes four bytes; the high three are zero (val_bits is 8) and are normally overwritten by the next iteration, but the final iteration's high bytes are not. With RXBYTES == 30 the i == 29 iteration already writes three zero bytes past msg, which sits on the IRQ thread's stack in wcove_typec_irq().

Clamp the loop to sizeof(struct pd_message) and read each register into a local before storing only its low byte, so the copy can never exceed the destination regardless of what RXINFO reports.

Affected: Ubuntu:26.04:LTS: linux-ibm, Ubuntu:26.04:LTS: linux-oracle

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: - x86 platform drivers; - PSP security protocol; - ARM32 architecture; - ARM64 architecture; - MIPS architecture; - PowerPC architecture; - RISC-V architecture; - S390 architecture; - User-Mode Linux (UML); - x86 architecture; - Block layer subsystem; - Cryptographic API; - Intel NPU Driver; - Compute Acceleration Framework; - ACPI drivers; - Auxiliary display drivers; - Drivers core; - DRBD Distributed Replicated Block Device drivers; - Rados block device (RBD) driver; - Ublk userspace block driver; - Compressed RAM block device driver; - Bluetooth drivers; - Bus devices; - Character device driver; - Clock framework and drivers; - CPU frequency scaling framework; - Hardware crypto device drivers; - Buffer Sharing and Synchronization framework; - DPLL subsystem; - EDAC drivers; - Arm Firmware Framework for ARMv8-A(FFA); - EFI core; - FWCTL subsystem; - GPIO subsystem; - GPU drivers; - HID subsystem; - Hardware monitoring drivers; - I2C subsystem; - I…
