In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6/sit: use DEV_STATS_INC() to avoid data-races
syzbot/KCSAN reported that multiple cpus are updating dev->stats.tx_error
concurrently.
This is because sit tunnels are NETIF_F_LLTX, meaning their ndo_start_xmit()
is not protected by a spinlock.
While original KCSAN report was about tx path, rx path has the same issue.

btrfs: fix race when deleting free space root from the dirty cow roots list
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix race when deleting free space root from the dirty cow roots list
When deleting the free space tree we are deleting the free space root
from the list fs_info->dirty_cowonly_roots without taking the lock that
protects it, which is struct btrfs_fs_info::trans_lock.
This unsynchronized list manipulation may cause chaos if there's another
concurrent manipulation of this list, such as when adding a root to it
with ctree.c:add_root_to_dirty_list().
This can result in all sorts of weird failures caused by a race, such as
the following crash:

iommu/amd: Add a length limitation for the ivrs_acpihid command-line parameter
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/amd: Add a length limitation for the ivrs_acpihid command-line parameter
The 'acpiid' buffer in the parse_ivrs_acpihid function may overflow,
because the string specifier in the format string sscanf()
has no width limitation.

(linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
net: do not allow gso_size to be set to GSO_BY_FRAGS
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: do not allow gso_size to be set to GSO_BY_FRAGS
One missing check in virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() allowed
syzbot to crash kernels again [1]
Do not allow gso_size to be set to GSO_BY_FRAGS (0xffff),
because this magic value is used by the kernel.

ubifs: Fix memleak when insert_old_idx() failed
Following process will cause a memleak for copied up znode:
dirty_cow_znode
zn = copy_znode(c, znode);
err = insert_old_idx(c, zbr->lnum, zbr->offs);
if (unlikely(err))
return ERR_PTR(err); // No one refers to zn.
Fetch a reproducer in [Link].
Function copy_znode() is split into 2 parts: resource allocation
and znode replacement, insert_old_idx() is split in similar way,
so resource cleanup could be done in error handling path without
corrupting metadata(mem & disk).
It's okay that old index inserting is put be

RDMA/bnxt_re: Prevent handling any completions after qp destroy
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/bnxt_re: Prevent handling any completions after qp destroy
HW may generate completions that indicates QP is destroyed.
Driver should not be scheduling any more completion handlers
for this QP, after the QP is destroyed. Since CQs are active
during the QP destroy, driver may still schedule completion
handlers. This can cause a race where the destroy_cq and poll_cq
running simultaneously.
Snippet of kernel panic while doing bnxt_re driver load unload in loop.
This indicates a poll after the CQ is freed.

drm/rockchip: dw_hdmi: cleanup drm encoder during unbind
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/rockchip: dw_hdmi: cleanup drm encoder during unbind
This fixes a use-after-free crash during rmmod.
The DRM encoder is embedded inside the larger rockchip_hdmi,
which is allocated with the component. The component memory
gets freed before the main drm device is destroyed. Fix it
by running encoder cleanup before tearing down its container.
[moved encoder cleanup above clk_disable, similar to bind-error-path]

audit: fix possible soft lockup in __audit_inode_child()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
audit: fix possible soft lockup in __audit_inode_child()
Tracefs or debugfs maybe cause hundreds to thousands of PATH records,
too many PATH records maybe cause soft lockup.
For example:
1. CONFIG_KASAN=y && CONFIG_PREEMPTION=n
2. auditctl -a exit,always -S open -k key
3. sysctl -w kernel.watchdog_thresh=5
4. mkdir /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/instances/test
There may be a soft lockup as follows:

x86/apic: Don't disable x2APIC if locked
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/apic: Don't disable x2APIC if locked
The APIC supports two modes, legacy APIC (or xAPIC), and Extended APIC
(or x2APIC). X2APIC mode is mostly compatible with legacy APIC, but
it disables the memory-mapped APIC interface in favor of one that uses
MSRs. The APIC mode is controlled by the EXT bit in the APIC MSR.
The MMIO/xAPIC interface has some problems, most notably the APIC LEAK
[1]. This bug allows an attacker to use the APIC MMIO interface to
extract data from the SGX enclave.
Introduce support for a new feature that will allow the BIOS to lock
the APIC in x2AP

ima: Handle error code returned by ima_filter_rule_match()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ima: Handle error code returned by ima_filter_rule_match()
In ima_match_rules(), if ima_filter_rule_match() returns -ENOENT due to
the rule being NULL, the function incorrectly skips the 'if (!rc)' check
and sets 'result = true'. The LSM rule is considered a match, causing
extra files to be measured by IMA.
This issue can be reproduced in the following scenario:
After unloading the SELinux policy module via 'semodule -d', if an IMA
measurement is triggered before ima_lsm_rules is updated,
in ima_match_rules(), the first call to ima_filter_rule_match() returns
-ESTALE. This
isdn: mISDN: hfcsusb: fix memory leak in hfcsusb_probe()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
isdn: mISDN: hfcsusb: fix memory leak in hfcsusb_probe()
In hfcsusb_probe(), the memory allocated for ctrl_urb gets leaked when
setup_instance() fails with an error code. Fix that by freeing the urb
before freeing the hw structure. Also change the error paths to use the
goto ladder style.
Compile tested only. Issue found using a prototype static analysis tool.
wifi: rtl8xxxu: Fix memory leaks with RTL8723BU, RTL8192EU
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtl8xxxu: Fix memory leaks with RTL8723BU, RTL8192EU
The wifi + bluetooth combo chip RTL8723BU can leak memory (especially?)
when it's connected to a bluetooth audio device. The busy bluetooth
traffic generates lots of C2H (card to host) messages, which are not
freed correctly.
To fix this, move the dev_kfree_skb() call in rtl8xxxu_c2hcmd_callback()
inside the loop where skb_dequeue() is called.
The RTL8192EU leaks memory because the C2H messages are added to the
queue and left there forever. (This was fine in the past because it
probably wasn't sending any C2H mess
