regulator: core: fix unbalanced of node refcount in regulator_dev_lookup()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
regulator: core: fix unbalanced of node refcount in regulator_dev_lookup()
I got the the following report:
OF: ERROR: memory leak, expected refcount 1 instead of 2,
of_node_get()/of_node_put() unbalanced - destroy cset entry:
attach overlay node /i2c/pmic@62/regulators/exten
In of_get_regulator(), the node is returned from of_parse_phandle()
with refcount incremented, after using it, of_node_put() need be called.
mmc: toshsd: fix return value check of mmc_add_host()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: toshsd: fix return value check of mmc_add_host()
mmc_add_host() may return error, if we ignore its return value, the memory
that allocated in mmc_alloc_host() will be leaked and it will lead a kernel
crash because of deleting not added device in the remove path.
So fix this by checking the return value and goto error path which will call
mmc_free_host(), besides, free_irq() also needs be called.

drm: Prevent drm_copy_field() to attempt copying a NULL pointer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm: Prevent drm_copy_field() to attempt copying a NULL pointer
There are some struct drm_driver fields that are required by drivers since
drm_copy_field() attempts to copy them to user-space via DRM_IOCTL_VERSION.
But it can be possible that a driver has a bug and did not set some of the
fields, which leads to drm_copy_field() attempting to copy a NULL pointer:

wifi: ath10k: add peer map clean up for peer delete in ath10k_sta_state()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath10k: add peer map clean up for peer delete in ath10k_sta_state()
When peer delete failed in a disconnect operation, use-after-free
detected by KFENCE in below log. It is because for each vdev_id and
address, it has only one struct ath10k_peer, it is allocated in
ath10k_peer_map_event(). When connected to an AP, it has more than
one HTT_T2H_MSG_TYPE_PEER_MAP reported from firmware, then the
array peer_map of struct ath10k will be set muti-elements to the
same ath10k_peer in ath10k_peer_map_event(). When peer delete failed
in ath10k_sta_state(), the ath10k_peer will

usb: musb: Fix musb_gadget.c rxstate overflow bug
The usb function device call musb_gadget_queue() adds the passed
request to musb_ep::req_list,If the (request->length > musb_ep->packet_sz)
and (is_buffer_mapped(req) return false),the rxstate() will copy all data
in fifo to request->buf which may cause request->buf out of bounds.
Fix it by add the length check :
fifocnt = min_t(unsigned, request->length - request->actual, fifocnt);
powerpc/rtas: avoid device tree lookups in rtas_os_term()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/rtas: avoid device tree lookups in rtas_os_term()
rtas_os_term() is called during panic. Its behavior depends on a couple
of conditions in the /rtas node of the device tree, the traversal of
which entails locking and local IRQ state changes. If the kernel panics
while devtree_lock is held, rtas_os_term() as currently written could
hang.
Instead of discovering the relevant characteristics at panic time,
cache them in file-static variables at boot. Note the lookup for
"ibm,extended-os-term" is converted to of_property_read_bool() since it
is a boolean property, not a
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwrng: amd - Fix PCI device refcount leak
for_each_pci_dev() is implemented by pci_get_device(). The comment of
pci_get_device() says that it will increase the reference count for the
returned pci_dev and also decrease the reference count for the input
pci_dev @from if it is not NULL.
If we break for_each_pci_dev() loop with pdev not NULL, we need to call
pci_dev_put() to decrease the reference count. Add the missing
pci_dev_put() for the normal and error path.
ASoC: pxa: fix null-pointer dereference in filter()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

kasprintf() would return NULL pointer when kmalloc() fail to allocate.
Need to check the return pointer before calling strcmp().
rapidio: rio: fix possible name leak in rio_register_mport()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rapidio: rio: fix possible name leak in rio_register_mport()
If device_register() returns error, the name allocated by dev_set_name()
need be freed. It should use put_device() to give up the reference in the
error path, so that the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup(), and
list_del() is called to delete the port from rio_mports.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

An oops can be induced by running 'cat /proc/kcore > /dev/null' on
devices using pstore with the ram backend because kmap_atomic() assumes

drivers: dio: fix possible memory leak in dio_init()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers: dio: fix possible memory leak in dio_init()
If device_register() returns error, the 'dev' and name needs be
freed. Add a release function, and then call put_device() in the
error path, so the name is freed in kobject_cleanup() and to the
'dev' is freed in release function.
mmc: via-sdmmc: fix return value check of mmc_add_host()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: via-sdmmc: fix return value check of mmc_add_host()
mmc_add_host() may return error, if we ignore its return value,
it will lead two issues:
1. The memory that allocated in mmc_alloc_host() is leaked.
2. In the remove() path, mmc_remove_host() will be called to
delete device, but it's not added yet, it will lead a kernel
crash because of null-ptr-deref in device_del().
Fix this by checking the return value and goto error path which
will call mmc_free_host().

net: stream: purge sk_error_queue in sk_stream_kill_queues()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: stream: purge sk_error_queue in sk_stream_kill_queues()
Changheon Lee reported TCP socket leaks, with a nice repro.
It seems we leak TCP sockets with the following sequence:
1) SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK is enabled on the socket.
Each ACK will cook an skb put in error queue, from __skb_tstamp_tx().
__skb_tstamp_tx() is using skb_clone(), unless
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY was also requested.
2) If the application is also using MSG_ZEROCOPY, then we put in the
error queue cloned skbs that had a struct ubuf_info attached to them.
Whenever an struct ubuf_

wifi: ath9k: hif_usb: Fix use-after-free in ath9k_hif_usb_reg_in_cb()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath9k: hif_usb: Fix use-after-free in ath9k_hif_usb_reg_in_cb()
It is possible that skb is freed in ath9k_htc_rx_msg(), then
usb_submit_urb() fails and we try to free skb again. It causes
use-after-free bug. Moreover, if alloc_skb() fails, urb->context becomes
NULL but rx_buf is not freed and there can be a memory leak.
The patch removes unnecessary nskb and makes skb processing more clear: it
is supposed that ath9k_htc_rx_msg() either frees old skb or passes its
managing to another callback function.

In check_acpi_tpm2(), we get the TPM2 table just to make
