misc: pci_endpoint_test: Free IRQs before removing the device
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
misc: pci_endpoint_test: Free IRQs before removing the device
In pci_endpoint_test_remove(), freeing the IRQs after removing the device
creates a small race window for IRQs to be received with the test device
memory already released, causing the IRQ handler to access invalid memory,
resulting in an oops.
Free the device IRQs before removing the device to avoid this issue.
arm64: set __exception_irq_entry with __irq_entry as a default
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: set __exception_irq_entry with __irq_entry as a default
filter_irq_stacks() is supposed to cut entries which are related irq entries
from its call stack.
And in_irqentry_text() which is called by filter_irq_stacks()
uses __irqentry_text_start/end symbol to find irq entries in callstack.
But it doesn't work correctly as without "CONFIG_FUNCTION_GRAPH_TRACER",
arm64 kernel doesn't include gic_handle_irq which is entry point of arm64 irq
between __irqentry_text_start and __irqentry_text_end as we discussed in below link.

pinctrl: at91-pio4: check return value of devm_kasprintf()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: at91-pio4: check return value of devm_kasprintf()
devm_kasprintf() returns a pointer to dynamically allocated memory.
Pointer could be NULL in case allocation fails. Check pointer validity.
Identified with coccinelle (kmerr.cocci script).

net/smc: use smc_lgr_list.lock to protect smc_lgr_list.list iterate in smcr_port_add
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: use smc_lgr_list.lock to protect smc_lgr_list.list iterate in smcr_port_add
While doing smcr_port_add, there maybe linkgroup add into or delete
from smc_lgr_list.list at the same time, which may result kernel crash.
So, use smc_lgr_list.lock to protect smc_lgr_list.list iterate in
smcr_port_add.

powerpc/powernv/sriov: perform null check on iov before dereferencing iov
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/powernv/sriov: perform null check on iov before dereferencing iov
Currently pointer iov is being dereferenced before the null check of iov
which can lead to null pointer dereference errors. Fix this by moving the
iov null check before the dereferencing.
Detected using cppcheck static analysis:

the condition '!iov' is redundant or there is possible null pointer

media: af9005: Fix null-ptr-deref in af9005_i2c_xfer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: af9005: Fix null-ptr-deref in af9005_i2c_xfer
In af9005_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 af9005_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.

ext4: fix deadlock when converting an inline directory in nojournal mode
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix deadlock when converting an inline directory in nojournal mode
In no journal mode, ext4_finish_convert_inline_dir() can self-deadlock
by calling ext4_handle_dirty_dirblock() when it already has taken the
directory lock. There is a similar self-deadlock in
ext4_incvert_inline_data_nolock() for data files which we'll fix at
the same time.
A simple reproducer demonstrating the problem:
mke2fs -Fq -t ext2 -O inline_data -b 4k /dev/vdc 64
mount -t ext4 -o dirsync /dev/vdc /vdc
cd /vdc
mkdir file0
cd file0

scsi: message: mptlan: Fix use after free bug in mptlan_remove() due to race condition
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: message: mptlan: Fix use after free bug in mptlan_remove() due to race condition
mptlan_probe() calls mpt_register_lan_device() which initializes the
&priv->post_buckets_task workqueue. A call to
mpt_lan_wake_post_buckets_task() will subsequently start the work.
During driver unload in mptlan_remove() the following race may occur:
CPU0 CPU1
|mpt_lan_post_receive_buckets_work()
mptlan_remove() |
free_netdev() |
kfree(dev); |

tpm: tpm_vtpm_proxy: fix a race condition in /dev/vtpmx creation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tpm: tpm_vtpm_proxy: fix a race condition in /dev/vtpmx creation
/dev/vtpmx is made visible before 'workqueue' is initialized, which can
lead to a memory corruption in the worst case scenario.
Address this by initializing 'workqueue' as the very first step of the
driver initialization.
ALSA: ymfpci: Create card with device-managed snd_devm_card_new()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: ymfpci: Create card with device-managed snd_devm_card_new()
snd_card_ymfpci_remove() was removed in commit c6e6bb5eab74 ("ALSA:
ymfpci: Allocate resources with device-managed APIs"), but the call to
snd_card_new() was not replaced with snd_devm_card_new().
Since there was no longer a call to snd_card_free, unloading the module
would eventually result in Oops:

ptp_qoriq: fix memory leak in probe()
Smatch complains that:
drivers/ptp/ptp_qoriq.c ptp_qoriq_probe()
warn: 'base' from ioremap() not released.
Fix this by revising the parameter from 'ptp_qoriq->base' to 'base'.
This is only a bug if ptp_qoriq_init() returns on the
first -ENODEV error path.
For other error paths ptp_qoriq->base and base are the same.
And this change makes the code more readable.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: tls: avoid hanging tasks on the tx_lock
syzbot sent a hung task report and Eric explains that adversarial
receiver may keep RWIN at 0 for a long time, so we are not guaranteed
to make forward progress. Thread which took tx_lock and went to sleep
may not release tx_lock for hours. Use interruptible sleep where
possible and reschedule the work if it can't take the lock.

possible by compiler optimizations.

wifi: ath9k: avoid referencing uninit memory in ath9k_wmi_ctrl_rx
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: avoid referencing uninit memory in ath9k_wmi_ctrl_rx
For the reasons also described in commit b383e8abed41 ("wifi: ath9k: avoid
uninit memory read in ath9k_htc_rx_msg()"), ath9k_htc_rx_msg() should
validate pkt_len before accessing the SKB.
For example, the obtained SKB may have been badly constructed with
pkt_len = 8. In this case, the SKB can only contain a valid htc_frame_hdr
but after being processed in ath9k_htc_rx_msg() and passed to
ath9k_wmi_ctrl_rx() endpoint RX handler, it is expected to have a WMI
command header which should be located inside its da
usb: typec: bus: verify partner exists in typec_altmode_attention
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: bus: verify partner exists in typec_altmode_attention
Some usb hubs will negotiate DisplayPort Alt mode with the device
but will then negotiate a data role swap after entering the alt
mode. The data role swap causes the device to unregister all alt
modes, however the usb hub will still send Attention messages
even after failing to reregister the Alt Mode. type_altmode_attention
currently does not verify whether or not a device's altmode partner
exists, which results in a NULL pointer error when dereferencing
the typec_altmode and typec_altmode_ops belonging to t
