In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfp: bpf: Add check for nfp_app_ctrl_msg_alloc()
Add check for the return value of nfp_app_ctrl_msg_alloc() in
nfp_bpf_cmsg_alloc() to prevent null pointer dereference.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
acct: perform last write from workqueue
In [1] it was reported that the acct(2) system call can be used to
trigger NULL deref in cases where it is set to write to a file that
triggers an internal lookup. This can e.g., happen when pointing acc(2)
to /sys/power/resume. At the point the where the write to this file
happens the calling task has already exited and called exit_fs(). A
lookup will thus trigger a NULL-deref when accessing current->fs.
Reorganize the code so that the the final write happens from the
workqueue but with the caller's credentials. This preserves the

usb: gadget: f_midi: fix MIDI Streaming descriptor lengths
While the MIDI jacks are configured correctly, and the MIDIStreaming
endpoint descriptors are filled with the correct information,
bNumEmbMIDIJack and bLength are set incorrectly in these descriptors.
This does not matter when the numbers of in and out ports are equal, but
when they differ the host will receive broken descriptors with
uninitialized stack memory leaking into the descriptor for whichever
value is smaller.
The precise meaning of "in" and "out" in the port counts is not clearly
defined and can be conf
tomoyo: don't emit warning in tomoyo_write_control()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tomoyo: don't emit warning in tomoyo_write_control()
syzbot is reporting too large allocation warning at tomoyo_write_control(),
for one can write a very very long line without new line character. To fix
this warning, I use __GFP_NOWARN rather than checking for KMALLOC_MAX_SIZE,
for practically a valid line should be always shorter than 32KB where the
"too small to fail" memory-allocation rule applies.
One might try to write a valid line that is longer than 32KB, but such
request will likely fail with -ENOMEM. Therefore, I feel that separately

KVM: Explicitly verify target vCPU is online in kvm_get_vcpu()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: Explicitly verify target vCPU is online in kvm_get_vcpu()
Explicitly verify the target vCPU is fully online _prior_ to clamping the
index in kvm_get_vcpu(). If the index is "bad", the nospec clamping will
generate '0', i.e. KVM will return vCPU0 instead of NULL.
In practice, the bug is unlikely to cause problems, as it will only come
into play if userspace or the guest is buggy or misbehaving, e.g. KVM may
send interrupts to vCPU0 instead of dropping them on the floor.
However, returning vCPU0 when it shouldn't exist per online_vcpus is
problematic now that KVM uses
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtlwifi: remove unused check_buddy_priv
Commit 2461c7d60f9f ("rtlwifi: Update header file") introduced a global
list of private data structures.
Later on, commit 26634c4b1868 ("rtlwifi Modify existing bits to match
vendor version 2013.02.07") started adding the private data to that list at
probe time and added a hook, check_buddy_priv to find the private data from
a similar device.
However, that function was never used.
Besides, though there is a lock for that list, it is never used. And when
the probe fails, the private data is never removed from the list. This

team: prevent adding a device which is already a team device lower
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
team: prevent adding a device which is already a team device lower
Prevent adding a device which is already a team device lower,
e.g. adding veth0 if vlan1 was already added and veth0 is a lower of
vlan1.
This is not useful in practice and can lead to recursive locking:
$ ip link add veth0 type veth peer name veth1
$ ip link set veth0 up
$ ip link set veth1 up
$ ip link add link veth0 name veth0.1 type vlan protocol 802.1Q id 1
$ ip link add team0 type team
$ ip link set veth0.1 down
$ ip link set veth0.1 master team0
team0: Port device veth0.1 added
$ ip link set veth0 d
rtc: pcf85063: fix potential OOB write in PCF85063 NVMEM read
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rtc: pcf85063: fix potential OOB write in PCF85063 NVMEM read
The nvmem interface supports variable buffer sizes, while the regmap
interface operates with fixed-size storage. If an nvmem client uses a
buffer size less than 4 bytes, regmap_read will write out of bounds
as it expects the buffer to point at an unsigned int.
Fix this by using an intermediary unsigned int to hold the value.
wifi: rtlwifi: fix memory leaks and invalid access at probe error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtlwifi: fix memory leaks and invalid access at probe error path
Deinitialize at reverse order when probe fails.
When init_sw_vars fails, rtl_deinit_core should not be called, specially
now that it destroys the rtl_wq workqueue.
And call rtl_pci_deinit and deinit_sw_vars, otherwise, memory will be
leaked.
Remove pci_set_drvdata call as it will already be cleaned up by the core
driver code and could lead to memory leaks too. cf. commit 8d450935ae7f
("wireless: rtlwifi: remove unnecessary pci_set_drvdata()") and
commit 3d86b93064c7 ("rtlwifi: Fix PCI probe error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ubifs: skip dumping tnc tree when zroot is null
Clearing slab cache will free all znode in memory and make
c->zroot.znode = NULL, then dumping tnc tree will access
c->zroot.znode which cause null pointer dereference.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_tcm: Don't free command immediately
Don't prematurely free the command. Wait for the status completion of
the sense status. It can be freed then. Otherwise we will double-free
the command.
drm/amdgpu: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in atomctrl_get_smc_sclk_range_table
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in atomctrl_get_smc_sclk_range_table
The function atomctrl_get_smc_sclk_range_table() does not check the return
value of smu_atom_get_data_table(). If smu_atom_get_data_table() fails to
retrieve SMU_Info table, it returns NULL which is later dereferenced.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
In practice this should never happen as this code only gets called
on polaris chips and the vbios data table will always be present on
those chips.
ipmi: ipmb: Add check devm_kasprintf() returned value
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmi: ipmb: Add check devm_kasprintf() returned value
devm_kasprintf() can return a NULL pointer on failure but this
returned value is not checked.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcm: oss: Fix race at SNDCTL_DSP_SYNC
There is a small race window at snd_pcm_oss_sync() that is called from
OSS PCM SNDCTL_DSP_SYNC ioctl; namely the function calls
snd_pcm_oss_make_ready() at first, then takes the params_lock mutex
for the rest. When the stream is set up again by another thread
between them, it leads to inconsistency, and may result in unexpected
results such as NULL dereference of OSS buffer as a fuzzer spotted
recently.
The fix is simply to cover snd_pcm_oss_make_ready() call into the same
params_lock mutex with snd_pcm_oss_make_ready_locked() v
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: Drop unmanaged ELP metric worker
The ELP worker needs to calculate new metric values for all neighbors
"reachable" over an interface. Some of the used metric sources require
locks which might need to sleep. This sleep is incompatible with the RCU
list iterator used for the recorded neighbors. The initial approach to work
around of this problem was to queue another work item per neighbor and then
run this in a new context.
Even when this solved the RCU vs might_sleep() conflict, it has a major
problems: Nothing was stopping the work item in case it is not needed
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ptp: Ensure info->enable callback is always set
The ioctl and sysfs handlers unconditionally call the ->enable callback.
Not all drivers implement that callback, leading to NULL dereferences.
Example of affected drivers: ptp_s390.c, ptp_vclock.c and ptp_mock.c.
Instead use a dummy callback if no better was specified by the driver.
nilfs2: protect access to buffers with no active references
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: protect access to buffers with no active references
nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers(), which iterates through the buffers
attached to dirty data folios/pages, accesses the attached buffers without
locking the folios/pages.
For data cache, nilfs_clear_folio_dirty() may be called asynchronously
when the file system degenerates to read only, so
nilfs_lookup_dirty_data_buffers() still has the potential to cause use
after free issues when buffers lose the protection of their dirty state
midway due to this asynchronous clearing and are unintentionally freed by
try_to_fre
