spi: spi-zynq-qspi: Fix a NULL pointer dereference in zynq_qspi_exec_mem_op()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: spi-zynq-qspi: Fix a NULL pointer dereference in zynq_qspi_exec_mem_op()
In zynq_qspi_exec_mem_op(), kzalloc() is directly used in memset(),
which could lead to a NULL pointer dereference on failure of
kzalloc().
Fix this bug by adding a check of tmpbuf.
This bug was found by a static analyzer. The analysis employs
differential checking to identify inconsistent security operations
(e.g., checks or kfrees) between two code paths and confirms that the
inconsistent operations are not recovered in the current function or
the callers, so they constitute bugs.

nfc: pn533: Wait for out_urb's completion in pn533_usb_send_frame()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: pn533: Wait for out_urb's completion in pn533_usb_send_frame()
Fix a use-after-free that occurs in hcd when in_urb sent from
pn533_usb_send_frame() is completed earlier than out_urb. Its callback
frees the skb data in pn533_send_async_complete() that is used as a
transfer buffer of out_urb. Wait before sending in_urb until the
callback of out_urb is called. To modify the callback of out_urb alone,
separate the complete function of out_urb and ack_urb.
Found by a modified version of syzkaller.

net/sched: act_mpls: Fix warning during failed attribute validation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: act_mpls: Fix warning during failed attribute validation
The 'TCA_MPLS_LABEL' attribute is of 'NLA_U32' type, but has a
validation type of 'NLA_VALIDATE_FUNCTION'. This is an invalid
combination according to the comment above 'struct nla_policy':
"
Meaning of `validate' field, use via NLA_POLICY_VALIDATE_FN:
NLA_BINARY Validation function called for the attribute.

This can trigger the warning [1] in nla_get_range_unsigned() when
validation of the attribute fails. Despite being of 'NLA_U3
usb: xhci: Check endpoint is valid before dereferencing it
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: xhci: Check endpoint is valid before dereferencing it
When the host controller is not responding, all URBs queued to all
endpoints need to be killed. This can cause a kernel panic if we
dereference an invalid endpoint.
Fix this by using xhci_get_virt_ep() helper to find the endpoint and
checking if the endpoint is valid before dereferencing it.

nilfs2: fix general protection fault in nilfs_btree_insert()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix general protection fault in nilfs_btree_insert()
If nilfs2 reads a corrupted disk image and tries to reads a b-tree node
block by calling __nilfs_btree_get_block() against an invalid virtual
block address, it returns -ENOENT because conversion of the virtual block
address to a disk block address fails. However, this return value is the
same as the internal code that b-tree lookup routines return to indicate
that the block being searched does not exist, so functions that operate on
that b-tree may misbehave.
When nilfs_btree_insert() receives this spurious 'not
Add exception protection processing for vd in axi_chan_handle_err function
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Add exception protection processing for vd in axi_chan_handle_err function
Since there is no protection for vd, a kernel panic will be
triggered here in exceptional cases.

xhci: Fix null pointer dereference when host dies
Make sure xhci_free_dev() and xhci_kill_endpoint_urbs() do not race
and cause null pointer dereference when host suddenly dies.
Usb core may call xhci_free_dev() which frees the xhci->devs[slot_id]
virt device at the same time that xhci_kill_endpoint_urbs() tries to
loop through all the device's endpoints, checking if there are any
cancelled urbs left to give back.

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.

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.
