wifi: rtw88: always wait for both firmware loading attempts
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtw88: always wait for both firmware loading attempts
In 'rtw_wait_firmware_completion()', always wait for both (regular and
wowlan) firmware loading attempts. Otherwise if 'rtw_usb_intf_init()'
has failed in 'rtw_usb_probe()', 'rtw_usb_disconnect()' may issue
'ieee80211_free_hw()' when one of 'rtw_load_firmware_cb()' (usually
the wowlan one) is still in progress, causing UAF detected by KASAN.

wifi: wilc1000: fix potential RCU dereference issue in wilc_parse_join_bss_param
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: wilc1000: fix potential RCU dereference issue in wilc_parse_join_bss_param
In the `wilc_parse_join_bss_param` function, the TSF field of the `ies`
structure is accessed after the RCU read-side critical section is
unlocked. According to RCU usage rules, this is illegal. Reusing this
pointer can lead to unpredictable behavior, including accessing memory
that has been updated or causing use-after-free issues.
This possible bug was identified using a static analysis tool developed
by myself, specifically designed to detect RCU-related issues.
To address this, the TSF va

can: bcm: Clear bo->bcm_proc_read after remove_proc_entry().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: bcm: Clear bo->bcm_proc_read after remove_proc_entry().
syzbot reported a warning in bcm_release(). [0]
The blamed change fixed another warning that is triggered when
connect() is issued again for a socket whose connect()ed device has
been unregistered.
However, if the socket is just close()d without the 2nd connect(), the
remaining bo->bcm_proc_read triggers unnecessary remove_proc_entry()
in bcm_release().
Let's clear bo->bcm_proc_read after remove_proc_entry() in bcm_notify().

block: fix potential invalid pointer dereference in blk_add_partition
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: fix potential invalid pointer dereference in blk_add_partition
The blk_add_partition() function initially used a single if-condition
(IS_ERR(part)) to check for errors when adding a partition. This was
modified to handle the specific case of -ENXIO separately, allowing the
function to proceed without logging the error in this case. However,
this change unintentionally left a path where md_autodetect_dev()
could be called without confirming that part is a valid pointer.
This commit separates the error handling logic by splitting the
initial if-condition, improving co
ext4: avoid OOB when system.data xattr changes underneath the filesystem
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: avoid OOB when system.data xattr changes underneath the filesystem
When looking up for an entry in an inlined directory, if e_value_offs is
changed underneath the filesystem by some change in the block device, it
will lead to an out-of-bounds access that KASAN detects as an UAF.

nilfs2: fix potential null-ptr-deref in nilfs_btree_insert()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix potential null-ptr-deref in nilfs_btree_insert()
Patch series "nilfs2: fix potential issues with empty b-tree nodes".
This series addresses three potential issues with empty b-tree nodes that
can occur with corrupted filesystem images, including one recently
discovered by syzbot.
This patch (of 3):
If a b-tree is broken on the device, and the b-tree height is greater than
2 (the level of the root node is greater than 1) even if the number of
child nodes of the b-tree root is 0, a NULL pointer dereference occurs in

drivers: media: dvb-frontends/rtl2832: fix an out-of-bounds write error
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers: media: dvb-frontends/rtl2832: fix an out-of-bounds write error
Ensure index in rtl2832_pid_filter does not exceed 31 to prevent
out-of-bounds access.
dev->filters is a 32-bit value, so set_bit and clear_bit functions should
only operate on indices from 0 to 31. If index is 32, it will attempt to
access a non-existent 33rd bit, leading to out-of-bounds access.
Change the boundary check from index > 32 to index >= 32 to resolve this
issue.

RDMA/iwcm: Fix WARNING:at_kernel/workqueue.c:#check_flush_dependency
In the commit aee2424246f9 ("RDMA/iwcm: Fix a use-after-free related to
destroying CM IDs"), the function flush_workqueue is invoked to flush the
work queue iwcm_wq.
But at that time, the work queue iwcm_wq was created via the function
alloc_ordered_workqueue without the flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM.
Because the current process is trying to flush the whole iwcm_wq, if
iwcm_wq doesn't have the flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM, verify that the current
process is not reclaiming memory or running on a workqueue which doesn't

RDMA/rtrs-clt: Reset cid to con_num - 1 to stay in bounds
In the function init_conns(), after the create_con() and create_cm() for
loop if something fails. In the cleanup for loop after the destroy tag, we
access out of bound memory because cid is set to clt_path->s.con_num.
This commits resets the cid to clt_path->s.con_num - 1, to stay in bounds
in the cleanup loop later.

Recently I noticed a bug[1] in btrfs, after digged it into

Let's assume there's a inode (ie ino 261) with i_count 1 is
called by iput(), and there's a concurrent thread calling
generic_shutdown_super().
