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:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
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:
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in instrument_atomic_read_write include/linux/instrumented.h:102 [inline]

exec: Fix ToCToU between perm check and set-uid/gid usage
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
exec: Fix ToCToU between perm check and set-uid/gid usage
When opening a file for exec via do_filp_open(), permission checking is
done against the file's metadata at that moment, and on success, a file
pointer is passed back. Much later in the execve() code path, the file
metadata (specifically mode, uid, and gid) is used to determine if/how
to set the uid and gid. However, those values may have changed since the
permissions check, meaning the execution may gain unintended privileges.
For example, if a file could change permissions from executable and not
set-id:

mlxsw: spectrum_acl_erp: Fix object nesting warning
ACLs in Spectrum-2 and newer ASICs can reside in the algorithmic TCAM
(A-TCAM) or in the ordinary circuit TCAM (C-TCAM). The former can
contain more ACLs (i.e., tc filters), but the number of masks in each
region (i.e., tc chain) is limited.
In order to mitigate the effects of the above limitation, the device
allows filters to share a single mask if their masks only differ in up
to 8 consecutive bits. For example, dst_ip/25 can be represented using
dst_ip/24 with a delta of 1 bit. The C-TCAM does not have a limit on the

wifi: cfg80211: handle 2x996 RU allocation in cfg80211_calculate_bitrate_he()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: handle 2x996 RU allocation in cfg80211_calculate_bitrate_he()
Currently NL80211_RATE_INFO_HE_RU_ALLOC_2x996 is not handled in
cfg80211_calculate_bitrate_he(), leading to below warning:
kernel: invalid HE MCS: bw:6, ru:6
kernel: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 2312 at net/wireless/util.c:1501 cfg80211_calculate_bitrate_he+0x22b/0x270 [cfg80211]
Fix it by handling 2x996 RU allocation in the same way as 160 MHz bandwidth.
devres: Fix memory leakage caused by driver API devm_free_percpu()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
devres: Fix memory leakage caused by driver API devm_free_percpu()
It will cause memory leakage when use driver API devm_free_percpu()
to free memory allocated by devm_alloc_percpu(), fixed by using
devres_release() instead of devres_destroy() within devm_free_percpu().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/nouveau: prime: fix refcount underflow
Calling nouveau_bo_ref() on a nouveau_bo without initializing it (and
hence the backing ttm_bo) leads to a refcount underflow.
Instead of calling nouveau_bo_ref() in the unwind path of
drm_gem_object_init(), clean things up manually.

drm/vmwgfx: Fix a deadlock in dma buf fence polling
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/vmwgfx: Fix a deadlock in dma buf fence polling
Introduce a version of the fence ops that on release doesn't remove
the fence from the pending list, and thus doesn't require a lock to
fix poll->fence wait->fence unref deadlocks.
vmwgfx overwrites the wait callback to iterate over the list of all
fences and update their status, to do that it holds a lock to prevent
the list modifcations from other threads. The fence destroy callback
both deletes the fence and removes it from the list of pending
fences, for which it holds a lock.

net: usb: qmi_wwan: fix memory leak for not ip packets
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Free the unused skb when not ip packets arrive.
remoteproc: imx_rproc: Skip over memory region when node value is NULL
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
remoteproc: imx_rproc: Skip over memory region when node value is NULL
In imx_rproc_addr_init() "nph = of_count_phandle_with_args()" just counts
number of phandles. But phandles may be empty. So of_parse_phandle() in
the parsing loop (0 < a < nph) may return NULL which is later dereferenced.
Adjust this issue by adding NULL-return check.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma: fix call order in dmam_free_coherent
dmam_free_coherent() frees a DMA allocation, which makes the
freed vaddr available for reuse, then calls devres_destroy()
to remove and free the data structure used to track the DMA
allocation. Between the two calls, it is possible for a
concurrent task to make an allocation with the same vaddr
and add it to the devres list.
If this happens, there will be two entries in the devres list
with the same vaddr and devres_destroy() can free the wrong
entry, triggering the WARN_ON() in dmam_match.
Fix by destroying the devres entry befor
block: initialize integrity buffer to zero before writing it to media
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: initialize integrity buffer to zero before writing it to media
Metadata added by bio_integrity_prep is using plain kmalloc, which leads
to random kernel memory being written media. For PI metadata this is
limited to the app tag that isn't used by kernel generated metadata,
but for non-PI metadata the entire buffer leaks kernel memory.
Fix this by adding the __GFP_ZERO flag to allocations for writes.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cgroup/cpuset: Prevent UAF in proc_cpuset_show()
An UAF can happen when /proc/cpuset is read as reported in [1].
This can be reproduced by the following methods:
1.add an mdelay(1000) before acquiring the cgroup_lock In the
cgroup_path_ns function.
2.$cat /proc/<pid>/cpuset repeatly.
3.$mount -t cgroup -o cpuset cpuset /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/
$umount /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/ repeatly.
The race that cause this bug can be shown as below:
(umount) | (cat /proc/<pid>/cpuset)
css_release | proc_cpuset_show
css_release_work_fn | css = task_get_css(tsk, cpuset_cgrp_id);

lib: objagg: Fix general protection fault
The library supports aggregation of objects into other objects only if
the parent object does not have a parent itself. That is, nesting is not
supported.
Aggregation happens in two cases: Without and with hints, where hints
are a pre-computed recommendation on how to aggregate the provided
objects.
Nesting is not possible in the first case due to a check that prevents
it, but in the second case there is no check because the assumption is
that nesting cannot happen when creating objects based on hints. The
violation of this assump
