In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: az6007: Fix null-ptr-deref in az6007_i2c_xfer()
In az6007_i2c_xfer, msg is controlled by user. When msg[i].buf
is null and msg[i].len is zero, former checks on msg[i].buf would be
passed. Malicious data finally reach az6007_i2c_xfer. If accessing
msg[i].buf[0] without sanity check, null ptr deref would happen.
We add check on msg[i].len to prevent crash.

wifi: brcmfmac: slab-out-of-bounds read in brcmf_get_assoc_ies()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmfmac: slab-out-of-bounds read in brcmf_get_assoc_ies()
Fix a slab-out-of-bounds read that occurs in kmemdup() called from
brcmf_get_assoc_ies().
The bug could occur when assoc_info->req_len, data from a URB provided
by a USB device, is bigger than the size of buffer which is defined as
WL_EXTRA_BUF_MAX.
Add the size check for req_len/resp_len of assoc_info.

wifi: ath9k: hif_usb: clean up skbs if ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream() fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: hif_usb: clean up skbs if ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream() fails
Syzkaller detected a memory leak of skbs in ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream().
While processing skbs in ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream(), the already allocated
skbs in skb_pool are not freed if ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream() fails. If we
have an incorrect pkt_len or pkt_tag, the input skb is considered invalid
and dropped. All the associated packets already in skb_pool should be
dropped and freed. Added a comment describing this issue.
The patch also makes remain_skb NULL after being processed so that it
cannot be referenc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pnode: terminate at peers of source
The propagate_mnt() function handles mount propagation when creating
mounts and propagates the source mount tree @source_mnt to all
applicable nodes of the destination propagation mount tree headed by
@dest_mnt.
Unfortunately it contains a bug where it fails to terminate at peers of
@source_mnt when looking up copies of the source mount that become
masters for copies of the source mount tree mounted on top of slaves in
the destination propagation tree causing a NULL dereference.
Once the mechanics of the bug are understood it's easy to
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PNP: fix name memory leak in pnp_alloc_dev()
After commit 1fa5ae857bb1 ("driver core: get rid of struct device's
bus_id string array"), the name of device is allocated dynamically,
move dev_set_name() after pnp_add_id() to avoid memory leak.
drm/radeon: Add the missed acpi_put_table() to fix memory leak
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/radeon: Add the missed acpi_put_table() to fix memory leak
When the radeon driver reads the bios information from ACPI
table in radeon_acpi_vfct_bios(), it misses to call acpi_put_table()
to release the ACPI memory after the init, so add acpi_put_table()
properly to fix the memory leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: dvbdev: adopts refcnt to avoid UAF
dvb_unregister_device() is known that prone to use-after-free.
That is, the cleanup from dvb_unregister_device() releases the dvb_device
even if there are pointers stored in file->private_data still refer to it.
This patch adds a reference counter into struct dvb_device and delays its
deallocation until no pointer refers to the object.

mmc: rtsx_pci: fix return value check of mmc_add_host()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: rtsx_pci: fix return value check of mmc_add_host()
mmc_add_host() may return error, if we ignore its return value, the memory
that allocated in mmc_alloc_host() will be leaked and it will lead a kernel
crash because of deleting not added device in the remove path.
So fix this by checking the return value and calling mmc_free_host() in the
error path, beside, runtime PM also needs be disabled.
ipv6/addrconf: fix a potential refcount underflow for idev
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6/addrconf: fix a potential refcount underflow for idev
Now in addrconf_mod_rs_timer(), reference idev depends on whether
rs_timer is not pending. Then modify rs_timer timeout.
There is a time gap in [1], during which if the pending rs_timer
becomes not pending. It will miss to hold idev, but the rs_timer
is activated. Thus rs_timer callback function addrconf_rs_timer()
will be executed and put idev later without holding idev. A refcount
underflow issue for idev can be caused by this.
if (!timer_pending(&idev->rs_timer))
in6_dev_hold(idev);

wifi: ath9k: don't allow to overwrite ENDPOINT0 attributes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: don't allow to overwrite ENDPOINT0 attributes
A bad USB device is able to construct a service connection response
message with target endpoint being ENDPOINT0 which is reserved for
HTC_CTRL_RSVD_SVC and should not be modified to be used for any other
services.
Reject such service connection responses.

mm: fix zswap writeback race condition
The zswap writeback mechanism can cause a race condition resulting in
memory corruption, where a swapped out page gets swapped in with data that
was written to a different page.
The race unfolds like this:
1. a page with data A and swap offset X is stored in zswap
2. page A is removed off the LRU by zpool driver for writeback in
zswap-shrink work, data for A is mapped by zpool driver
3. user space program faults and invalidates page entry A, offset X is
considered free
4. kswapd stores page B at offset X in zswap (zswap could al
serial: 8250: Reinit port->pm on port specific driver unbind
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: 8250: Reinit port->pm on port specific driver unbind
When we unbind a serial port hardware specific 8250 driver, the generic
serial8250 driver takes over the port. After that we see an oops about 10
seconds later. This can produce the following at least on some TI SoCs:
Unhandled fault: imprecise external abort (0x1406)
Internal error: : 1406 [#1] SMP ARM
Turns out that we may still have the serial port hardware specific driver
port->pm in use, and serial8250_pm() tries to call it after the port
specific driver is gone:

scsi: core: Fix possible memory leak if device_add() fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: core: Fix possible memory leak if device_add() fails
If device_add() returns error, the name allocated by dev_set_name() needs
be freed. As the comment of device_add() says, put_device() should be used
to decrease the reference count in the error path. So fix this by calling
put_device(), then the name can be freed in kobject_cleanp().
