Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: lpass: Fix for KASAN use_after_free out of bounds When we run syzkaller we get below Out of Bounds error. "KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds Read in regcache_flat_read" Below is the backtrace of the issue: BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in regcache_flat_read+0x10c/0x110 Read of size 4 at addr ffffff8088fbf714 by task syz-executor.4/14144 CPU: 6 PID: 14144 Comm: syz-executor.4 Tainted: G W Hardware name: Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. sc7280 CRD platform (rev5+) (DT) Call trace: dump_backtrace+0x0/0x4ec show_stack+0x34/0x50 dump_stack_lvl+0xdc/0x11c print_address_description+0x30/0x2d8 kasan_report+0x178/0x1e4 __asan_report_load4_noabort+0x44/0x50 regcache_flat_read+0x10c/0x110 regcache_read+0xf8/0x5a0 _regmap_read+0x45c/0x86c _regmap_update_bits+0x128/0x290 regmap_update_bits_base+0xc0/0x15c snd_soc_component_update_bits+0xa8/0x22c snd_soc_component_write_field+0x68/0xd4 tx_macro_put_dec_enum+0x1d0/0x268 snd_ctl_elem_write+0x288/0x474 By Error checking and checking valid values issue gets rectifies.

——0The kernel queue helper z_queue_node_peek() in kernel/queue.c dereferences a node taken from a queue's data_q list, reading the node's flag byte and, for items enqueued via k_queue_alloc_append/alloc_prepend, the data pointer of an internally allocated alloc_node struct. The implementations of z_impl_k_queue_peek_head() and z_impl_k_queue_peek_tail() performed this read-and-dereference without holding the queue's spinlock, while every other accessor of the same list — including k_queue_get(), which unlinks a node and k_free()s its backing alloc_node — operates under that lock. Because peek was unsynchronized, a concurrent k_queue_get() on the same queue (on an SMP build, or under preemption/ISR concurrency) can free the node between the moment peek obtains the node pointer and the moment it dereferences it. The peek then reads flag bits and a data pointer out of freed, potentially re-allocated heap memory and returns a stale or dangling pointer to its caller. k_fifo and k_lifo are thin wrappers over k_queue, so this affects buffer queues used throughout the net_buf, Bluetooth, USB, and networking subsystems; the peek operations are also system calls reachable from CONFIG_USERSPACE threads. The consequences are a use-after-free read that can leak stale heap contents (one pointer word) and, when the returned dangling pointer is subsequently consumed as a live buffer, a dereference that can crash the system or corrupt memory. Exploitation requires winning a small race window with local access (e.g. a userspace process racing k_queue_peek_* against k_queue_get on a shared queue, or two CPUs), so practical impact is bounded and of low severity. The fix wraps both peek implementations with k_spin_lock/k_spin_unlock on the queue lock, making the read-and-dereference atomic with respect to the concurrent unlink-and-free and bringing peek into line with the rest of the queue's locking discipline.3d CVE-2026-71847—

——5Ruby JSON is a JSON implementation for Ruby. From 2.20.0 until 2.21.2, Ruby's JSON native C extension clears the consumed JSON::ResumableParser input buffer but leaves state.start, state.cursor, and state.end pointing into released storage. When partial_value reconstructs an incomplete object containing duplicate keys, the duplicate-key warning path calls cursor_position, which dereferences those stale pointers. This results in a heap-use-after-free and can terminate the Ruby process. An attacker who can supply JSON stream data to an application using JSON::ResumableParser may cause process termination when the application calls partial_value on incomplete attacker-controlled input containing duplicate object keys. This issue has been fixed in version 2.21.2.3d CVE-2026-436328.1 HIG

——8llama.cpp builds b7492 through the latest b9060 contains a use-after-free vulnerability in llama-server affecting six tokenization endpoints (/tokenize, /detokenize, /infill, /apply-template, /rerank, and /anthropic/count_tokens) that bypass the task queue and access ctx_server.vocab directly on HTTP worker threads. Attackers can exploit a time-of-check-time-of-use race condition where the main thread destroys and frees vocab after the synchronization lock is released but before the handler finishes using it, causing a crash or potential code execution when --sleep-idle-seconds is configured.3d CVE-2026-436318.1 HIG

——10llama.cpp builds b7492 through the latest b9060 contains a use-after-free vulnerability in the vocab pointer of llama-server when the --sleep-idle-seconds feature is enabled, allowing unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. Attackers can trigger the vulnerability by sending requests to affected endpoints while the server transitions to sleep mode, causing concurrent worker threads to dereference a freed vocab pointer that can be reclaimed with attacker-controlled data to achieve remote code execution.3d CVE-2026-12897.8 HIG
