Unity Runtime before 2025-10-02 on Android, Windows, macOS, and Linux allows argument injection that can result in loading of library code from an unintended location. If an application was built with a version of Unity Editor that had the vulnerable Unity Runtime code, then an adversary may be able to execute code on, and exfiltrate confidential information from, the machine on which that application is running. NOTE: product status is provided for Unity Editor because that is the information available from the Supplier. However, updating Unity Editor typically does not address the effects of the vulnerability; instead, it is necessary to rebuild and redeploy all affected applications.

Integrated application server for IBM i 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, and 7.5 contains a local privilege escalation vulnerability. A malicious actor with command line access to the host operating system can elevate privileges to gain root access to the host operating system. IBM X-Force ID: 263580.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: posix-cpu-timers: fix race between handle_posix_cpu_timers() and posix_cpu_timer_del() If an exiting non-autoreaping task has already passed exit_notify() and calls handle_posix_cpu_timers() from IRQ, it can be reaped by its parent or debugger right after unlock_task_sighand(). If a concurrent posix_cpu_timer_del() runs at that moment, it won't be able to detect timer->it.cpu.firing != 0: cpu_timer_task_rcu() and/or lock_task_sighand() will fail. Add the tsk->exit_state check into run_posix_cpu_timers() to fix this. This fix is not needed if CONFIG_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK=y, because exit_task_work() is called before exit_notify(). But the check still makes sense, task_work_add(&tsk->posix_cputimers_work.work) will fail anyway in this case.

IBM AIX 7.2, 7.3, IBM VIOS 3.1, and 4.1, when configured to use Kerberos network authentication, could allow a local user to write to files on the system with root privileges due to improper initialization of critical variables.

IBM Db2 12.1.0 through 12.1.3 for Linux, UNIX and Windows (includes Db2 Connect Server) under specific configurations could allow a local user to execute malicious code that escalate their privileges to root due to execution of unnecessary privileges operated at a higher than minimum level.

IBM InfoSphere Data Replication VSAM for z/OS Remote Source 11.4 is vulnerable to a stack-based buffer overflow, caused by improper bounds checking. A local user with access to the files storing CECSUB or CECRM on the container could overflow the buffer and execute arbitrary code on the system.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: audit: fix possible null-pointer dereference in audit_filter_rules Fix possible null-pointer dereference in audit_filter_rules. audit_filter_rules() error: we previously assumed 'ctx' could be null

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: avoid race between device unregistration and ethnl ops The following trace can be seen if a device is being unregistered while its number of channels are being modified. DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(lock->magic != lock) WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 3754 at kernel/locking/mutex.c:564 __mutex_lock+0xc8a/0x1120 CPU: 3 UID: 0 PID: 3754 Comm: ethtool Not tainted 6.13.0-rc6+ #771 RIP: 0010:__mutex_lock+0xc8a/0x1120 Call Trace: <TASK> ethtool_check_max_channel+0x1ea/0x880 ethnl_set_channels+0x3c3/0xb10 ethnl_default_set_doit+0x306/0x650 genl_family_rcv_msg_doit+0x1e3/0x2c0 genl_rcv_msg+0x432/0x6f0 netlink_rcv_skb+0x13d/0x3b0 genl_rcv+0x28/0x40 netlink_unicast+0x42e/0x720 netlink_sendmsg+0x765/0xc20 __sys_sendto+0x3ac/0x420 __x64_sys_sendto+0xe0/0x1c0 do_syscall_64+0x95/0x180 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e This is because unregister_netdevice_many_notify might run before the rtnl lock section of ethnl operations, eg. set_channels in the above example. In this example the rss lock would be destroyed by the device unregistration path before being used again, but in general running ethnl operations while dismantle has started is not a good idea. Fix this by denying any operation on devices being unregistered. A check was already there in ethnl_ops_begin, but not wide enough. Note that the same issue cannot be seen on the ioctl version (__dev_ethtool) because the device reference is retrieved from within the rtnl lock section there. Once dismantle started, the net device is unlisted and no reference will be found.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: core: Fix a use-after-free There are two .exit_cmd_priv implementations. Both implementations use resources associated with the SCSI host. Make sure that these resources are still available when .exit_cmd_priv is called by waiting inside scsi_remove_host() until the tag set has been freed. This commit fixes the following use-after-free: ================================================================== BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in srp_exit_cmd_priv+0x27/0xd0 [ib_srp] Read of size 8 at addr ffff888100337000 by task multipathd/16727 Call Trace: <TASK> dump_stack_lvl+0x34/0x44 print_report.cold+0x5e/0x5db kasan_report+0xab/0x120 srp_exit_cmd_priv+0x27/0xd0 [ib_srp] scsi_mq_exit_request+0x4d/0x70 blk_mq_free_rqs+0x143/0x410 __blk_mq_free_map_and_rqs+0x6e/0x100 blk_mq_free_tag_set+0x2b/0x160 scsi_host_dev_release+0xf3/0x1a0 device_release+0x54/0xe0 kobject_put+0xa5/0x120 device_release+0x54/0xe0 kobject_put+0xa5/0x120 scsi_device_dev_release_usercontext+0x4c1/0x4e0 execute_in_process_context+0x23/0x90 device_release+0x54/0xe0 kobject_put+0xa5/0x120 scsi_disk_release+0x3f/0x50 device_release+0x54/0xe0 kobject_put+0xa5/0x120 disk_release+0x17f/0x1b0 device_release+0x54/0xe0 kobject_put+0xa5/0x120 dm_put_table_device+0xa3/0x160 [dm_mod] dm_put_device+0xd0/0x140 [dm_mod] free_priority_group+0xd8/0x110 [dm_multipath] free_multipath+0x94/0xe0 [dm_multipath] dm_table_destroy+0xa2/0x1e0 [dm_mod] __dm_destroy+0x196/0x350 [dm_mod] dev_remove+0x10c/0x160 [dm_mod] ctl_ioctl+0x2c2/0x590 [dm_mod] dm_ctl_ioctl+0x5/0x10 [dm_mod] __x64_sys_ioctl+0xb4/0xf0 dm_ctl_ioctl+0x5/0x10 [dm_mod] __x64_sys_ioctl+0xb4/0xf0 do_syscall_64+0x3b/0x90 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x46/0xb0

arch/x86/kvm/svm/nested.c in the Linux kernel before 5.11.12 has a use-after-free in which an AMD KVM guest can bypass access control on host OS MSRs when there are nested guests, aka CID-a58d9166a756. This occurs because of a TOCTOU race condition associated with a VMCB12 double fetch in nested_svm_vmrun.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tcp: Fix Use-After-Free in tcp_ao_connect_init Since call_rcu, which is called in the hlist_for_each_entry_rcu traversal of tcp_ao_connect_init, is not part of the RCU read critical section, it is possible that the RCU grace period will pass during the traversal and the key will be free. To prevent this, it should be changed to hlist_for_each_entry_safe.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: rtl8xxxu: add cancel_work_sync() for c2hcmd_work The workqueue might still be running, when the driver is stopped. To avoid a use-after-free, call cancel_work_sync() in rtl8xxxu_stop().

A flaw was found in the Linux Kernel before 5.8-rc6 in the ZRAM kernel module, where a user with a local account and the ability to read the /sys/class/zram-control/hot_add file can create ZRAM device nodes in the /dev/ directory. This read allocates kernel memory and is not accounted for a user that triggers the creation of that ZRAM device. With this vulnerability, continually reading the device may consume a large amount of system memory and cause the Out-of-Memory (OOM) killer to activate and terminate random userspace processes, possibly making the system inoperable.
