btrfs: fix race between quota rescan and disable leading to NULL pointer deref
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix race between quota rescan and disable leading to NULL pointer deref
If we have one task trying to start the quota rescan worker while another
one is trying to disable quotas, we can end up hitting a race that results
in the quota rescan worker doing a NULL pointer dereference. The steps for
this are the following:
1) Quotas are enabled;
2) Task A calls the quota rescan ioctl and enters btrfs_qgroup_rescan().
It calls qgroup_rescan_init() which returns 0 (success) and then joins a
transaction and commits it;
3) Task B calls the quota disable ioctl and ent

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gsmi: fix null-deref in gsmi_get_variable
We can get EFI variables without fetching the attribute, so we must
allow for that in gsmi.
commit 859748255b43 ("efi: pstore: Omit efivars caching EFI varstore
access layer") added a new get_variable call with attr=NULL, which
triggers panic in gsmi.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/virtio: Fix GEM handle creation UAF
Userspace can guess the handle value and try to race GEM object creation
with handle close, resulting in a use-after-free if we dereference the
object after dropping the handle's reference. For that reason, dropping
the handle's reference must be done *after* we are done dereferencing
the object.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ixgbe: fix pci device refcount leak
As the comment of pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot() says, it
returns a PCI device with refcount incremented, when finish
using it, the caller must decrement the reference count by
calling pci_dev_put().
In ixgbe_get_first_secondary_devfn() and ixgbe_x550em_a_has_mii(),
pci_dev_put() is called to avoid leak.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
regulator: da9211: Use irq handler when ready
If the system does not come from reset (like when it is kexec()), the
regulator might have an IRQ waiting for us.
If we enable the IRQ handler before its structures are ready, we crash.
This patch fixes:

efi: fix NULL-deref in init error path
In cases where runtime services are not supported or have been disabled,
the runtime services workqueue will never have been allocated.
Do not try to destroy the workqueue unconditionally in the unlikely
event that EFI initialisation fails to avoid dereferencing a NULL
pointer.
misc: fastrpc: Don't remove map on creater_process and device_release
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
misc: fastrpc: Don't remove map on creater_process and device_release
Do not remove the map from the list on error path in
fastrpc_init_create_process, instead call fastrpc_map_put, to avoid
use-after-free. Do not remove it on fastrpc_device_release either,
call fastrpc_map_put instead.
The fastrpc_free_map is the only proper place to remove the map.
This is called only after the reference count is 0.
misc: fastrpc: Fix use-after-free race condition for maps
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
misc: fastrpc: Fix use-after-free race condition for maps
It is possible that in between calling fastrpc_map_get() until
map->fl->lock is taken in fastrpc_free_map(), another thread can call
fastrpc_map_lookup() and get a reference to a map that is about to be
deleted.
Rewrite fastrpc_map_get() to only increase the reference count of a map
if it's non-zero. Propagate this to callers so they can know if a map is
about to be deleted.
Fixes this warning:
refcount_t: addition on 0; use-after-free.

USB: gadgetfs: Fix race between mounting and unmounting
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: gadgetfs: Fix race between mounting and unmounting
The syzbot fuzzer and Gerald Lee have identified a use-after-free bug
in the gadgetfs driver, involving processes concurrently mounting and
unmounting the gadgetfs filesystem. In particular, gadgetfs_fill_super()
can race with gadgetfs_kill_sb(), causing the latter to deallocate
the_device while the former is using it. The output from KASAN says,
in part:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: Fix a race on command flush flow
Fix a refcount use after free warning due to a race on command entry.
Such race occurs when one of the commands releases its last refcount and
frees its index and entry while another process running command flush
flow takes refcount to this command entry. The process which handles
commands flush may see this command as needed to be flushed if the other
process released its refcount but didn't release the index yet. Fix it
by adding the needed spin lock.
It fixes the following warning trace:

NFC: port100: fix use-after-free in port100_send_complete
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFC: port100: fix use-after-free in port100_send_complete
Syzbot reported UAF in port100_send_complete(). The root case is in
missing usb_kill_urb() calls on error handling path of ->probe function.
port100_send_complete() accesses devm allocated memory which will be
freed on probe failure. We should kill this urbs before returning an
error from probe function to prevent reported use-after-free

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
swiotlb: fix info leak with DMA_FROM_DEVICE
The problem I'm addressing was discovered by the LTP test covering
cve-2018-1000204.
A short description of what happens follows:
1) The test case issues a command code 00 (TEST UNIT READY) via the SG_IO
interface with: dxfer_len == 524288, dxdfer_dir == SG_DXFER_FROM_DEV
and a corresponding dxferp. The peculiar thing about this is that TUR
is not reading from the device.
2) In sg_start_req() the invocation of blk_rq_map_user() effectively
bounces the user-space buffer. As if the device was to transfer into
it. Sin
