usb: gadget: u_serial: Add null pointer check in gserial_suspend
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: u_serial: Add null pointer check in gserial_suspend
Consider a case where gserial_disconnect has already cleared
gser->ioport. And if gserial_suspend gets called afterwards,
it will lead to accessing of gser->ioport and thus causing
null pointer dereference.
Avoid this by adding a null pointer check. Added a static
spinlock to prevent gser->ioport from becoming null after
the newly added null pointer check.
skbuff: skb_segment, Call zero copy functions before using skbuff frags
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
skbuff: skb_segment, Call zero copy functions before using skbuff frags
Commit bf5c25d60861 ("skbuff: in skb_segment, call zerocopy functions
once per nskb") added the call to zero copy functions in skb_segment().
The change introduced a bug in skb_segment() because skb_orphan_frags()
may possibly change the number of fragments or allocate new fragments
altogether leaving nrfrags and frag to point to the old values. This can
cause a panic with stacktrace like the one below.

kernel/fail_function: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kernel/fail_function: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()
When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it,
otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just
call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic
at once.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
icmp6: Fix null-ptr-deref of ip6_null_entry->rt6i_idev in icmp6_dev().
With some IPv6 Ext Hdr (RPL, SRv6, etc.), we can send a packet that
has the link-local address as src and dst IP and will be forwarded to
an external IP in the IPv6 Ext Hdr.
For example, the script below generates a packet whose src IP is the
link-local address and dst is updated to 11::.

btrfs: fix BUG_ON condition in btrfs_cancel_balance
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix BUG_ON condition in btrfs_cancel_balance
Pausing and canceling balance can race to interrupt balance lead to BUG_ON
panic in btrfs_cancel_balance. The BUG_ON condition in btrfs_cancel_balance
does not take this race scenario into account.
However, the race condition has no other side effects. We can fix that.
Reproducing it with panic trace like this:

lwt: Fix return values of BPF xmit ops
BPF encap ops can return different types of positive values, such like
NET_RX_DROP, NET_XMIT_CN, NETDEV_TX_BUSY, and so on, from function
skb_do_redirect and bpf_lwt_xmit_reroute. At the xmit hook, such return
values would be treated implicitly as LWTUNNEL_XMIT_CONTINUE in
ip(6)_finish_output2. When this happens, skbs that have been freed would
continue to the neighbor subsystem, causing use-after-free bug and
kernel crashes.
To fix the incorrect behavior, skb_do_redirect return values can be
simply discarded, the same as tc-egress be
nilfs2: do not write dirty data after degenerating to read-only
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: do not write dirty data after degenerating to read-only
According to syzbot's report, mark_buffer_dirty() called from
nilfs_segctor_do_construct() outputs a warning with some patterns after
nilfs2 detects metadata corruption and degrades to read-only mode.
After such read-only degeneration, page cache data may be cleared through
nilfs_clear_dirty_page() which may also clear the uptodate flag for their
buffer heads. However, even after the degeneration, log writes are still
performed by unmount processing etc., which causes mark_buffer_dirty() to
be called for buff

netfilter: conntrack: dccp: copy entire header to stack buffer, not just basic one
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: conntrack: dccp: copy entire header to stack buffer, not just basic one
Eric Dumazet says:
nf_conntrack_dccp_packet() has an unique:
dh = skb_header_pointer(skb, dataoff, sizeof(_dh), &_dh);
And nothing more is 'pulled' from the packet, depending on the content.
dh->dccph_doff, and/or dh->dccph_x ...)
So dccp_ack_seq() is happily reading stuff past the _dh buffer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pstore/ram: Check start of empty przs during init
After commit 30696378f68a ("pstore/ram: Do not treat empty buffers as

the buffer_size is zero (regardless of the buffer start position). This
unchecked start value means it could be outside the bounds of the buffer,
leading to future access panics when written to:

fs/ntfs3: Enhance sanity check while generating attr_list
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: Enhance sanity check while generating attr_list
ni_create_attr_list uses WARN_ON to catch error cases while generating
attribute list, which only prints out stack trace and may not be enough.
This repalces them with more proper error handling flow.

powerpc: Don't try to copy PPR for task with NULL pt_regs
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

powerpc sets up PF_KTHREAD and PF_IO_WORKER with a NULL pt_regs, which
from my (arguably very short) checking is not commonly done for other
archs. This is fine, except when PF_IO_WORKER's have been created and
the task does something that causes a coredump to be generated. Then we
get this crash:

scsi: qla2xxx: Wait for io return on terminate rport
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Wait for io return on terminate rport
System crash due to use after free.
Current code allows terminate_rport_io to exit before making
sure all IOs has returned. For FCP-2 device, IO's can hang
on in HW because driver has not tear down the session in FW at
first sign of cable pull. When dev_loss_tmo timer pops,
terminate_rport_io is called and upper layer is about to

the final cleanup, but the cleanup might not be fast enough where it
leave qla still holding on to the same resource.

drm/msm/dp: Free resources after unregistering them
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm/dp: Free resources after unregistering them
The DP component's unbind operation walks through the submodules to
unregister and clean things up. But if the unbind happens because the DP
controller itself is being removed, all the memory for those submodules
has just been freed.
Change the order of these operations to avoid the many use-after-free
that otherwise happens in this code path.

wifi: ath11k: Fix SKB corruption in REO destination ring
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: Fix SKB corruption in REO destination ring
While running traffics for a long time, randomly an RX descriptor
filled with value "0" from REO destination ring is received.
This descriptor which is invalid causes the wrong SKB (SKB stored in
the IDR lookup with buffer id "0") to be fetched which in turn
causes SKB memory corruption issue and the same leads to crash
after some time.
Changed the start id for idr allocation to "1" and the buffer id "0"
is reserved for error validation. Introduced Sanity check to validate
the descriptor, before processing the SKB.
