Linus, Two audit fixes for the next Linux v7.2-rc release:
- Fix potential integer overflows in audit_log_n_string() Similar to the earlier fix to audit_log_n_hex() that you merged earlier in July. Expect a cleaner, and generally better fix for these functions in an upcoming merge window, but this addresses the problem in a small patch that should be easy for people to backport. - Fix potential use-after-free in audit_del_rule() Paul -- The following changes since commit f5098b6bae761e346ebcd9da7f95622c04733cff: Linux 7.2-rc5 (2026-07-26 14:45:48 -0700) are available in the Git repository at: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pcmoore/audit.git tags/audit-pr-20260730 for you to fetch changes up to 246df90b5f1a8a6e6abbd2f058b029558720adec: audit: fix potential use-after-free in audit_del_rule() (2026-07-29 16:19:06 -0400) ---------------------------------------------------------------- audit/stable-7.2 PR 20260730 ---------------------------------------------------------------- Luxiao Xu (1): audit: fix potential use-after-free in audit_del_rule() Zhan Xusheng (1): audit: fix potential integer overflow in audit_log_n_string() kernel/audit.c | 11 +++++++++-- kernel/auditfilter.c | 6 ++++-- 2 files changed, 13 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) -- paul-moore.com
