CVE-2025-21633

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: io_uring/sqpoll: zero sqd->thread on tctx errors Syzkeller reports: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in thread_group_cputime+0x409/0x700 kernel/sched/cputime.c:341 Read of size 8 at addr ffff88803578c510 by task syz.2.3223/27552 Call Trace: <TASK> ... kasan_report+0x143/0x180 mm/kasan/report.c:602 thread_group_cputime+0x409/0x700 kernel/sched/cputime.c:341 thread_group_cputime_adjusted+0xa6/0x340 kernel/sched/cputime.c:639 getrusage+0x1000/0x1340 kernel/sys.c:1863 io_uring_show_fdinfo+0xdfe/0x1770 io_uring/fdinfo.c:197 seq_show+0x608/0x770 fs/proc/fd.c:68 ... That's due to sqd->task not being cleared properly in cases where SQPOLL task tctx setup fails, which can essentially only happen with fault injection to insert allocation errors.

Attila Szász discovered that the HFS+ file system implementation in the Linux Kernel contained a heap overflow vulnerability. An attacker could use a specially crafted file system image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
