usb: atm: cxacru: fix a flaw in existing endpoint checks

Syzbot once again identified a flaw in usb endpoint checking, see [1]. This time the issue stems from a commit authored by me (2eabb655a968 ("usb: atm: cxacru: fix endpoint checking in cxacru_bind()")).

While using usb_find_common_endpoints() may usually be enough to discard devices with wrong endpoints, in this case one needs more than just finding and identifying the sufficient number of endpoints of correct types - one needs to check the endpoint's address as well.

Since cxacru_bind() fills URBs with CXACRU_EP_CMD address in mind, switch the endpoint verification approach to usb_check_XXX_endpoints() instead to fix incomplete ep testing.

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

drivers: virt: acrn: hsm: Use kzalloc to avoid info leak in pmcmd_ioctl

In the "pmcmd_ioctl" function, three memory objects allocated by kmalloc are initialized by "hcall_get_cpu_state", which are then copied to user space. The initializer is indeed implemented in "acrn_hypercall2" (arch/x86/include/asm/acrn.h). There is a risk of information leakage due to uninitialized bytes.(CVE-2025-21950)

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

backlight: led_bl: Hold led_access lock when calling led_sysfs_disable()

Lockdep detects the following issue on led-backlight removal: [ 142.315935] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 142.315954] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 292 at drivers/leds/led-core.c:455 led_sysfs_enable+0x54/0x80 ...

Indeed, led_sysfs_enable() has to be called with the led_access lock held.

Hold the lock when calling led_sysfs_disable().(CVE-2025-23144)

jfs: Fix uninit-value access of imap allocated in the diMount() function

The reason is that imap is not properly initialized after memory allocation. It will cause the snprintf() function to write uninitialized data into linebuf within hex_dump_to_buffer().

Fix this by using kzalloc instead of kmalloc to clear its content at the beginning in diMount().(CVE-2025-37742)

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

net: libwx: handle page_pool_dev_alloc_pages error

page_pool_dev_alloc_pages could return NULL. There was a WARN_ON(!page) but it would still proceed to use the NULL pointer and then crash.

This is similar to commit 001ba0902046 ("net: fec: handle page_pool_dev_alloc_pages error").

This is found by our static analysis tool KNighter.(CVE-2025-37755)

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

vmxnet3: Fix malformed packet sizing in vmxnet3_process_xdp

vmxnet3 driver's XDP handling is buggy for packet sizes using ring0 (that is, packet sizes between 128 - 3k bytes).

We noticed MTU-related connectivity issues with Cilium's service load- balancing in case of vmxnet3 as NIC underneath. A simple curl to a HTTP backend service where the XDP LB was doing IPIP encap led to overly large packet sizes but only for some of the packets (e.g. HTTP GET request) while others (e.g. the prior TCP 3WHS) looked completely fine on the wire.

In fact, the pcap recording on the backend node actually revealed that the node with the XDP LB was leaking uninitialized kernel data onto the wire for the affected packets, for example, while the packets should have been 152 bytes their actual size was 1482 bytes, so the remainder after 152 bytes was padded with whatever other data was in that page at the time (e.g. we saw user/payload data from prior processed packets).

We only noticed this through an MTU issue, e.g. when the XDP LB node and the backend node both had the same MTU (e.g. 1500) then the curl request got dropped on the backend node's NIC given the packet was too large even though the IPIP-encapped packet normally would never even come close to the MTU limit. Lowering the MTU on the XDP LB (e.g. 1480) allowed to let the curl request succeed (which also indicates that the kernel ignored the padding, and thus the issue wasn't very user-visible).

Commit e127ce7699c1 ("vmxnet3: Fix missing reserved tailroom") was too eager to also switch xdp_prepare_buff() from rcd->len to rbi->len. It really needs to stick to rcd->len which is the actual packet length from the descriptor. The latter we also feed into vmxnet3_process_xdp_small(), by the way, and it indicates the correct length needed to initialize the xdp->{data,data_end} parts. For e127ce7699c1 ("vmxnet3: Fix missing reserved tailroom") the relevant part was adapting xdp_init_buff() to address the warning given the xdp_data_hard_end() depends on xdp->frame_sz. With that fixed, traffic on the wire looks good again.(CVE-2025-37799)

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

usb: chipidea: ci_hdrc_imx: fix usbmisc handling

usbmisc is an optional device property so it is totally valid for the corresponding data->usbmisc_data to have a NULL value.

Check that before dereferencing the pointer.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Svace static analysis tool.(CVE-2025-37811)

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

sfc: fix NULL dereferences in ef100_process_design_param()

Since cited commit, ef100_probe_main() and hence also ef100_check_design_params() run before efx->net_dev is created; consequently, we cannot netif_set_tso_max_size() or _segs() at this point. Move those netif calls to ef100_probe_netdev(), and also replace netif_err within the design params code with pci_err.(CVE-2025-37860)
