In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iwlwifi: fix use-after-free
If no firmware was present at all (or, presumably, all of the
firmware files failed to parse), we end up unbinding by calling
device_release_driver(), which calls remove(), which then in
iwlwifi calls iwl_drv_stop(), freeing the 'drv' struct. However
the new code I added will still erroneously access it after it
was freed.
Set 'failure=false' in this case to avoid the access, all data
was already freed anyway.
vsock: remove vsock from connected table when connect is interrupted by a signal
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vsock: remove vsock from connected table when connect is interrupted by a signal
vsock_connect() expects that the socket could already be in the
TCP_ESTABLISHED state when the connecting task wakes up with a signal
pending. If this happens the socket will be in the connected table, and
it is not removed when the socket state is reset. In this situation it's
common for the process to retry connect(), and if the connection is
successful the socket will be added to the connected table a second
time, corrupting the list.
Prevent this by calling vsock_remove_connected() if a si
mtd: rawnand: gpmi: don't leak PM reference in error path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: rawnand: gpmi: don't leak PM reference in error path
If gpmi_nfc_apply_timings() fails, the PM runtime usage counter must be
dropped.
Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix memory leak in vmbus_add_channel_kobj
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Drivers: hv: vmbus: Fix memory leak in vmbus_add_channel_kobj
kobject_init_and_add() takes reference even when it fails.
According to the doc of kobject_init_and_add()：
If this function returns an error, kobject_put() must be called to
properly clean up the memory associated with the object.
Fix memory leak by calling kobject_put().
tracing/histogram: Fix a potential memory leak for kstrdup()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing/histogram: Fix a potential memory leak for kstrdup()
kfree() is missing on an error path to free the memory allocated by
kstrdup():
p = param = kstrdup(data->params[i], GFP_KERNEL);
So it is better to free it via kfree(p).
USB: core: Fix hang in usb_kill_urb by adding memory barriers
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: core: Fix hang in usb_kill_urb by adding memory barriers
The syzbot fuzzer has identified a bug in which processes hang waiting
for usb_kill_urb() to return. It turns out the issue is not unlinking
the URB; that works just fine. Rather, the problem arises when the
wakeup notification that the URB has completed is not received.
The reason is memory-access ordering on SMP systems. In outline form,
usb_kill_urb() and __usb_hcd_giveback_urb() operating concurrently on
different CPUs perform the following actions:
CPU 0 CPU 1

rpmsg: char: Fix race between the release of rpmsg_ctrldev and cdev
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rpmsg: char: Fix race between the release of rpmsg_ctrldev and cdev
struct rpmsg_ctrldev contains a struct cdev. The current code frees
the rpmsg_ctrldev struct in rpmsg_ctrldev_release_device(), but the
cdev is a managed object, therefore its release is not predictable
and the rpmsg_ctrldev could be freed before the cdev is entirely
released, as in the backtrace below.
[ 93.625603] ODEBUG: free active (active state 0) object type: timer_list hint: delayed_work_timer_fn+0x0/0x7c

scsi: bnx2fc: Flush destroy_work queue before calling bnx2fc_interface_put()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: bnx2fc: Flush destroy_work queue before calling bnx2fc_interface_put()
The bnx2fc_destroy() functions are removing the interface before calling
destroy_work. This results multiple WARNings from sysfs_remove_group() as
the controller rport device attributes are removed too early.
Replace the fcoe_port's destroy_work queue. It's not needed.
The problem is easily reproducible with the following steps.
Example:
$ dmesg -w &
$ systemctl enable --now fcoe
$ fipvlan -s -c ens2f1
$ fcoeadm -d ens2f1.802

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: fix information leakage in /proc/net/ptype
In one net namespace, after creating a packet socket without binding
it to a device, users in other net namespaces can observe the new
`packet_type` added by this packet socket by reading `/proc/net/ptype`
file. This is minor information leakage as packet socket is
namespace aware.
Add a net pointer in `packet_type` to keep the net namespace of
of corresponding packet socket. In `ptype_seq_show`, this net pointer
must be checked when it is not NULL.
drm/msm/dsi: invalid parameter check in msm_dsi_phy_enable
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm/dsi: invalid parameter check in msm_dsi_phy_enable
The function performs a check on the "phy" input parameter, however, it
is used before the check.
Initialize the "dev" variable after the sanity check to avoid a possible
NULL pointer dereference.
Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1493860 ("Null pointer dereference")
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
phylib: fix potential use-after-free
Commit bafbdd527d56 ("phylib: Add device reset GPIO support") added call
to phy_device_reset(phydev) after the put_device() call in phy_detach().
The comment before the put_device() call says that the phydev might go
away with put_device().
Fix potential use-after-free by calling phy_device_reset() before
put_device().
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: Fix wrong offset in bio_truncate()
bio_truncate() clears the buffer outside of last block of bdev, however
current bio_truncate() is using the wrong offset of page. So it can
return the uninitialized data.
This happened when both of truncated/corrupted FS and userspace (via
bdev) are trying to read the last of bdev.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: amd-xgbe: Fix skb data length underflow
There will be BUG_ON() triggered in include/linux/skbuff.h leading to
intermittent kernel panic, when the skb length underflow is detected.
Fix this by dropping the packet if such length underflows are seen
because of inconsistencies in the hardware descriptors.
rtnetlink: make sure to refresh master_dev/m_ops in __rtnl_newlink()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rtnetlink: make sure to refresh master_dev/m_ops in __rtnl_newlink()
While looking at one unrelated syzbot bug, I found the replay logic
in __rtnl_newlink() to potentially trigger use-after-free.
It is better to clear master_dev and m_ops inside the loop,
in case we have to replay it.
ASoC: ops: Reject out of bounds values in snd_soc_put_volsw()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: ops: Reject out of bounds values in snd_soc_put_volsw()
We don't currently validate that the values being set are within the range
we advertised to userspace as being valid, do so and reject any values
that are out of range.
btrfs: fix deadlock between quota disable and qgroup rescan worker
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix deadlock between quota disable and qgroup rescan worker
Quota disable ioctl starts a transaction before waiting for the qgroup
rescan worker completes. However, this wait can be infinite and results
in deadlock because of circular dependency among the quota disable
ioctl, the qgroup rescan worker and the other task with transaction such
as block group relocation task.
The deadlock happens with the steps following:
1) Task A calls ioctl to disable quota. It starts a transaction and
waits for qgroup rescan worker completes.
2) Task B such as block group reloca
drm/nouveau: fix off by one in BIOS boundary checking
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/nouveau: fix off by one in BIOS boundary checking
Bounds checking when parsing init scripts embedded in the BIOS reject
access to the last byte. This causes driver initialization to fail on
Apple eMac's with GeForce 2 MX GPUs, leaving the system with no working
console.
This is probably only seen on OpenFirmware machines like PowerPC Macs
because the BIOS image provided by OF is only the used parts of the ROM,
not a power-of-two blocks read from PCI directly so PCs always have
empty bytes at the end that are never accessed.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/kmemleak: avoid scanning potential huge holes
When using devm_request_free_mem_region() and devm_memremap_pages() to
add ZONE_DEVICE memory, if requested free mem region's end pfn were
huge(e.g., 0x400000000), the node_end_pfn() will be also huge (see
move_pfn_range_to_zone()). Thus it creates a huge hole between
node_start_pfn() and node_end_pfn().
We found on some AMD APUs, amdkfd requested such a free mem region and
created a huge hole. In such a case, following code snippet was just
doing busy test_bit() looping on the huge hole.
for (pfn = start_pfn; pfn < end
iommu/vt-d: Fix potential memory leak in intel_setup_irq_remapping()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iommu/vt-d: Fix potential memory leak in intel_setup_irq_remapping()
After commit e3beca48a45b ("irqdomain/treewide: Keep firmware node
unconditionally allocated"). For tear down scenario, fn is only freed
after fail to allocate ir_domain, though it also should be freed in case
dmar_enable_qi returns error.
Besides free fn, irq_domain and ir_msi_domain need to be removed as well
if intel_setup_irq_remapping fails to enable queued invalidation.
Improve the rewinding path by add out_free_ir_domain and out_free_fwnode
lables per Baolu's suggestion.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ieee802154: ca8210: Stop leaking skb's
Upon error the ieee802154_xmit_complete() helper is not called. Only
ieee802154_wake_queue() is called manually. We then leak the skb
structure.
Free the skb structure upon error before returning.
