wifi: brcmfmac: slab-out-of-bounds read in brcmf_get_assoc_ies()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmfmac: slab-out-of-bounds read in brcmf_get_assoc_ies()
Fix a slab-out-of-bounds read that occurs in kmemdup() called from
brcmf_get_assoc_ies().
The bug could occur when assoc_info->req_len, data from a URB provided
by a USB device, is bigger than the size of buffer which is defined as
WL_EXTRA_BUF_MAX.
Add the size check for req_len/resp_len of assoc_info.
Found by a modified version of syzkaller.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

We do check for target CPU == -1, but this might change at the time we

avoid out-of-bound accesses to the cpu arrays.

PM: domains: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PM: domains: 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:
RDMA/bnxt_re: wraparound mbox producer index
Driver is not handling the wraparound of the mbox producer index correctly.
Currently the wraparound happens once u32 max is reached.
Bit 31 of the producer index register is special and should be set
only once for the first command. Because the producer index overflow
setting bit31 after a long time, FW goes to initialization sequence
and this causes FW hang.
Fix is to wraparound the mbox producer index once it reaches u16 max.
netfilter: x_tables: fix percpu counter block leak on error path when creating new netns
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: x_tables: fix percpu counter block leak on error path when creating new netns
Here is the stack where we allocate percpu counter block:
+-< __alloc_percpu
+-< xt_percpu_counter_alloc
+-< find_check_entry # {arp,ip,ip6}_tables.c
+-< translate_table
And it can be leaked on this code path:
+-> ip6t_register_table
+-> translate_table # allocates percpu counter block
+-> xt_register_table # fails
there is no freeing of the counter block on xt_register_table fail.
Note: xt_percpu_counter_free should be called to free it like we do in

wifi: ath9k: hif_usb: clean up skbs if ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream() fails
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: hif_usb: clean up skbs if ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream() fails
Syzkaller detected a memory leak of skbs in ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream().
While processing skbs in ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream(), the already allocated
skbs in skb_pool are not freed if ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream() fails. If we
have an incorrect pkt_len or pkt_tag, the input skb is considered invalid
and dropped. All the associated packets already in skb_pool should be
dropped and freed. Added a comment describing this issue.
The patch also makes remain_skb NULL after being processed so that it
cannot be referenc
qlcnic: prevent ->dcb use-after-free on qlcnic_dcb_enable() failure
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
qlcnic: prevent ->dcb use-after-free on qlcnic_dcb_enable() failure
adapter->dcb would get silently freed inside qlcnic_dcb_enable() in
case qlcnic_dcb_attach() would return an error, which always happens
under OOM conditions. This would lead to use-after-free because both
of the existing callers invoke qlcnic_dcb_get_info() on the obtained
pointer, which is potentially freed at that point.
Propagate errors from qlcnic_dcb_enable(), and instead free the dcb
pointer at callsite using qlcnic_dcb_free(). This also removes the now
unused qlcnic_clear_dcb_ops() helper, which wa
ext4: fix delayed allocation bug in ext4_clu_mapped for bigalloc + inline
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix delayed allocation bug in ext4_clu_mapped for bigalloc + inline
When converting files with inline data to extents, delayed allocations
made on a file system created with both the bigalloc and inline options
can result in invalid extent status cache content, incorrect reserved
cluster counts, kernel memory leaks, and potential kernel panics.
With bigalloc, the code that determines whether a block must be
delayed allocated searches the extent tree to see if that block maps
to a previously allocated cluster. If not, the block is delayed
allocated, and otherwise, it
mm,hugetlb: take hugetlb_lock before decrementing h->resv_huge_pages
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm,hugetlb: take hugetlb_lock before decrementing h->resv_huge_pages
The h->*_huge_pages counters are protected by the hugetlb_lock, but
alloc_huge_page has a corner case where it can decrement the counter
outside of the lock.
This could lead to a corrupted value of h->resv_huge_pages, which we have
observed on our systems.
Take the hugetlb_lock before decrementing h->resv_huge_pages to avoid a
potential race.

MIPS: SGI-IP27: Fix platform-device leak in bridge_platform_create()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
MIPS: SGI-IP27: Fix platform-device leak in bridge_platform_create()
In error case in bridge_platform_create after calling
platform_device_add()/platform_device_add_data()/
platform_device_add_resources(), release the failed
'pdev' or it will be leak, call platform_device_put()
to fix this problem.
Besides, 'pdev' is divided into 'pdev_wd' and 'pdev_bd',
use platform_device_unregister() to release sgi_w1
resources when xtalk-bridge registration fails.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pnode: terminate at peers of source
The propagate_mnt() function handles mount propagation when creating
mounts and propagates the source mount tree @source_mnt to all
applicable nodes of the destination propagation mount tree headed by
@dest_mnt.
Unfortunately it contains a bug where it fails to terminate at peers of
@source_mnt when looking up copies of the source mount that become
masters for copies of the source mount tree mounted on top of slaves in
the destination propagation tree causing a NULL dereference.
Once the mechanics of the bug are understood it's easy to

null pointer dereference.
So return ENOMEM if kasprintf() return NULL pointer.
