In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/sysv: Null check to prevent null-ptr-deref bug
sb_getblk(inode->i_sb, parent) return a null ptr and taking lock on
that leads to the null-ptr-deref bug.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: fix potential oops in cifs_oplock_break
With deferred close we can have closes that race with lease breaks,
and so with the current checks for whether to send the lease response,
oplock_response(), this can mean that an unmount (kill_sb) can occur
just before we were checking if the tcon->ses is valid. See below:

net: macb: fix a memory corruption in extended buffer descriptor mode
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: macb: fix a memory corruption in extended buffer descriptor mode
For quite some time we were chasing a bug which looked like a sudden
permanent failure of networking and mmc on some of our devices.
The bug was very sensitive to any software changes and even more to
any kernel debug options.
Finally we got a setup where the problem was reproducible with
CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG=y and it revealed the issue with the rx dma:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sh: dma: Fix DMA channel offset calculation
Various SoCs of the SH3, SH4 and SH4A family, which use this driver,
feature a differing number of DMA channels, which can be distributed
between up to two DMAC modules. The existing implementation fails to
correctly accommodate for all those variations, resulting in wrong
channel offset calculations and leading to kernel panics.
Rewrite dma_base_addr() in order to properly calculate channel offsets
in a DMAC module. Fix dmaor_read_reg() and dmaor_write_reg(), so that
the correct DMAC module base is selected for the DMAOR registe

net/sched: taprio: Limit TCA_TAPRIO_ATTR_SCHED_CYCLE_TIME to INT_MAX.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: taprio: Limit TCA_TAPRIO_ATTR_SCHED_CYCLE_TIME to INT_MAX.
syzkaller found zero division error [0] in div_s64_rem() called from
get_cycle_time_elapsed(), where sched->cycle_time is the divisor.
We have tests in parse_taprio_schedule() so that cycle_time will never
be 0, and actually cycle_time is not 0 in get_cycle_time_elapsed().
The problem is that the types of divisor are different; cycle_time is
s64, but the argument of div_s64_rem() is s32.
syzkaller fed this input and 0x100000000 is cast to s32 to be 0.

ksmbd: avoid out of bounds access in decode_preauth_ctxt()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: avoid out of bounds access in decode_preauth_ctxt()
Confirm that the accessed pneg_ctxt->HashAlgorithms address sits within
the SMB request boundary; deassemble_neg_contexts() only checks that the
eight byte smb2_neg_context header + (client controlled) DataLength are
within the packet boundary, which is insufficient.
Checking for sizeof(struct smb2_preauth_neg_context) is overkill given
that the type currently assumes SMB311_SALT_SIZE bytes of trailing Salt.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: Add check for kmemdup
Since the kmemdup may return NULL pointer,
it should be better to add check for the return value
in order to avoid NULL pointer dereference.
rcuscale: Move rcu_scale_writer() schedule_timeout_uninterruptible() to _idle()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

The rcuscale.holdoff module parameter can be used to delay the start

trigger when the timeout specified by rcuscale.holdoff is greater than

ACPI: EC: Fix oops when removing custom query handlers
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: EC: Fix oops when removing custom query handlers
When removing custom query handlers, the handler might still
be used inside the EC query workqueue, causing a kernel oops
if the module holding the callback function was already unloaded.
Fix this by flushing the EC query workqueue when removing
custom query handlers.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ebtables: fix table blob use-after-free
We are not allowed to return an error at this point.
Looking at the code it looks like ret is always 0 at this
point, but its not.
t = find_table_lock(net, repl->name, &ret, &ebt_mutex);
... this can return a valid table, with ret != 0.
This bug causes update of table->private with the new
blob, but then frees the blob right away in the caller.

net/net_failover: fix txq exceeding warning
The failover txq is inited as 16 queues.
when a packet is transmitted from the failover device firstly,

m68k: Only force 030 bus error if PC not in exception table
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
m68k: Only force 030 bus error if PC not in exception table
__get_kernel_nofault() does copy data in supervisor mode when
forcing a task backtrace log through /proc/sysrq_trigger.
This is expected cause a bus error exception on e.g. NULL
pointer dereferencing when logging a kernel task has no
workqueue associated. This bus error ought to be ignored.
Our 030 bus error handler is ill equipped to deal with this:
Whenever ssw indicates a kernel mode access on a data fault,
we don't even attempt to handle the fault and instead always
send a SEGV signal (or panic). As a result,

btrfs: fix lockdep splat and potential deadlock after failure running delayed items
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix lockdep splat and potential deadlock after failure running delayed items
When running delayed items we are holding a delayed node's mutex and then
we will attempt to modify a subvolume btree to insert/update/delete the
delayed items. However if have an error during the insertions for example,
btrfs_insert_delayed_items() may return with a path that has locked extent
buffers (a leaf at the very least), and then we attempt to release the
delayed node at __btrfs_run_delayed_items(), which requires taking the
delayed node's mutex, causing an ABBA type of deadlock. Th
