drm/nouveau: prime: fix refcount underflow
Calling nouveau_bo_ref() on a nouveau_bo without initializing it (and
hence the backing ttm_bo) leads to a refcount underflow.
Instead of calling nouveau_bo_ref() in the unwind path of
drm_gem_object_init(), clean things up manually.

drm/vmwgfx: Fix a deadlock in dma buf fence polling
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/vmwgfx: Fix a deadlock in dma buf fence polling
Introduce a version of the fence ops that on release doesn't remove
the fence from the pending list, and thus doesn't require a lock to
fix poll->fence wait->fence unref deadlocks.
vmwgfx overwrites the wait callback to iterate over the list of all
fences and update their status, to do that it holds a lock to prevent
the list modifcations from other threads. The fence destroy callback
both deletes the fence and removes it from the list of pending
fences, for which it holds a lock.

net: usb: qmi_wwan: fix memory leak for not ip packets
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: qmi_wwan: fix memory leak for not ip packets
Free the unused skb when not ip packets arrive.
remoteproc: imx_rproc: Skip over memory region when node value is NULL
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
remoteproc: imx_rproc: Skip over memory region when node value is NULL
In imx_rproc_addr_init() "nph = of_count_phandle_with_args()" just counts
number of phandles. But phandles may be empty. So of_parse_phandle() in
the parsing loop (0 < a < nph) may return NULL which is later dereferenced.
Adjust this issue by adding NULL-return check.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dma: fix call order in dmam_free_coherent
dmam_free_coherent() frees a DMA allocation, which makes the
freed vaddr available for reuse, then calls devres_destroy()
to remove and free the data structure used to track the DMA
allocation. Between the two calls, it is possible for a
concurrent task to make an allocation with the same vaddr
and add it to the devres list.
If this happens, there will be two entries in the devres list
with the same vaddr and devres_destroy() can free the wrong
entry, triggering the WARN_ON() in dmam_match.
Fix by destroying the devres entry befor
block: initialize integrity buffer to zero before writing it to media
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: initialize integrity buffer to zero before writing it to media
Metadata added by bio_integrity_prep is using plain kmalloc, which leads
to random kernel memory being written media. For PI metadata this is
limited to the app tag that isn't used by kernel generated metadata,
but for non-PI metadata the entire buffer leaks kernel memory.
Fix this by adding the __GFP_ZERO flag to allocations for writes.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cgroup/cpuset: Prevent UAF in proc_cpuset_show()
An UAF can happen when /proc/cpuset is read as reported in [1].
This can be reproduced by the following methods:
1.add an mdelay(1000) before acquiring the cgroup_lock In the
cgroup_path_ns function.
2.$cat /proc/<pid>/cpuset repeatly.
3.$mount -t cgroup -o cpuset cpuset /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/
$umount /sys/fs/cgroup/cpuset/ repeatly.
The race that cause this bug can be shown as below:
(umount) | (cat /proc/<pid>/cpuset)
css_release | proc_cpuset_show
css_release_work_fn | css = task_get_css(tsk, cpuset_cgrp_id);

soc: qcom: pdr: protect locator_addr with the main mutex
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soc: qcom: pdr: protect locator_addr with the main mutex
If the service locator server is restarted fast enough, the PDR can
rewrite locator_addr fields concurrently. Protect them by placing
modification of those fields under the main pdr->lock.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
lib: objagg: Fix general protection fault
The library supports aggregation of objects into other objects only if
the parent object does not have a parent itself. That is, nesting is not
supported.
Aggregation happens in two cases: Without and with hints, where hints
are a pre-computed recommendation on how to aggregate the provided
objects.
Nesting is not possible in the first case due to a check that prevents
it, but in the second case there is no check because the assumption is
that nesting cannot happen when creating objects based on hints. The
violation of this assump
wifi: virt_wifi: avoid reporting connection success with wrong SSID
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: virt_wifi: avoid reporting connection success with wrong SSID
When user issues a connection with a different SSID than the one
virt_wifi has advertised, the __cfg80211_connect_result() will
trigger the warning: WARN_ON(bss_not_found).
The issue is because the connection code in virt_wifi does not
check the SSID from user space (it only checks the BSSID), and
virt_wifi will call cfg80211_connect_result() with WLAN_STATUS_SUCCESS
even if the SSID is different from the one virt_wifi has advertised.
Eventually cfg80211 won't be able to find the cfg80211_bss and generate
bna: adjust 'name' buf size of bna_tcb and bna_ccb structures
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bna: adjust 'name' buf size of bna_tcb and bna_ccb structures
To have enough space to write all possible sprintf() args. Currently
'name' size is 16, but the first '%s' specifier may already need at
least 16 characters, since 'bnad->netdev->name' is used there.
For '%d' specifiers, assume that they require:
* 1 char for 'tx_id + tx_info->tcb[i]->id' sum, BNAD_MAX_TXQ_PER_TX is 8
* 2 chars for 'rx_id + rx_info->rx_ctrl[i].ccb->id', BNAD_MAX_RXP_PER_RX
is 16
And replace sprintf with snprintf.

xdp: fix invalid wait context of page_pool_destroy()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xdp: fix invalid wait context of page_pool_destroy()
If the driver uses a page pool, it creates a page pool with
page_pool_create().
The reference count of page pool is 1 as default.
A page pool will be destroyed only when a reference count reaches 0.
page_pool_destroy() is used to destroy page pool, it decreases a
reference count.
When a page pool is destroyed, ->disconnect() is called, which is
mem_allocator_disconnect().
This function internally acquires mutex_lock().
If the driver uses XDP, it registers a memory model with
xdp_rxq_info_reg_mem_model().
The xdp_rxq_info
leds: trigger: Unregister sysfs attributes before calling deactivate()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
leds: trigger: Unregister sysfs attributes before calling deactivate()
Triggers which have trigger specific sysfs attributes typically store
related data in trigger-data allocated by the activate() callback and
freed by the deactivate() callback.
Calling device_remove_groups() after calling deactivate() leaves a window
where the sysfs attributes show/store functions could be called after
deactivation and then operate on the just freed trigger-data.
Move the device_remove_groups() call to before deactivate() to close
this race window.
This also makes the deactivation path
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/qxl: Add check for drm_cvt_mode
Add check for the return value of drm_cvt_mode() and return the error if
it fails in order to avoid NULL pointer dereference.
ext4: fix infinite loop when replaying fast_commit
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix infinite loop when replaying fast_commit
When doing fast_commit replay an infinite loop may occur due to an
uninitialized extent_status struct. ext4_ext_determine_insert_hole() does
not detect the replay and calls ext4_es_find_extent_range(), which will
return immediately without initializing the 'es' variable.
Because 'es' contains garbage, an integer overflow may happen causing an
infinite loop in this function, easily reproducible using fstest generic/039.
This commit fixes this issue by unconditionally initializing the structure
in function ext4_es_find_ext
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: missing check virtio
Two missing check in virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() allowed syzbot
to crash kernels again
1. After the skb_segment function the buffer may become non-linear
(nr_frags != 0), but since the SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG flag is not set anywhere
the __skb_linearize function will not be executed, then the buffer will
remain non-linear. Then the condition (offset >= skb_headlen(skb))
becomes true, which causes WARN_ON_ONCE in skb_checksum_help.
2. The struct sk_buff and struct virtio_net_hdr members must be
mathematically related.
(gso_size) must be greater than (needed
landlock: Don't lose track of restrictions on cred_transfer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
landlock: Don't lose track of restrictions on cred_transfer
When a process' cred struct is replaced, this _almost_ always invokes
the cred_prepare LSM hook; but in one special case (when
KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT updates the parent's credentials), the
cred_transfer LSM hook is used instead. Landlock only implements the
cred_prepare hook, not cred_transfer, so KEYCTL_SESSION_TO_PARENT causes
all information on Landlock restrictions to be lost.
This basically means that a process with the ability to use the fork()
and keyctl() syscalls can get rid of all Landlock restriction

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
exfat: fix potential deadlock on __exfat_get_dentry_set
When accessing a file with more entries than ES_MAX_ENTRY_NUM, the bh-array
is allocated in __exfat_get_entry_set. The problem is that the bh-array is
allocated with GFP_KERNEL. It does not make sense. In the following cases,
a deadlock for sbi->s_lock between the two processes may occur.
