staging: rtl8712: fix a potential memory leak in r871xu_drv_init()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8712: fix a potential memory leak in r871xu_drv_init()
In r871xu_drv_init(), if r8712_init_drv_sw() fails, then the memory
allocated by r8712_alloc_io_queue() in r8712_usb_dvobj_init() is not
properly released as there is no action will be performed by
r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit().
To properly release it, we should call r8712_free_io_queue() in
r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit().
Besides, in r871xu_dev_remove(), r8712_usb_dvobj_deinit() will be called
by r871x_dev_unload() under condition `padapter->bup` and
r8712_free_io_queue() is called by r8712_free_drv_sw().

Currently, someone can invoke the sysfs such as state_show()

nbd: fix race between nbd_alloc_config() and module removal
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nbd: fix race between nbd_alloc_config() and module removal
When nbd module is being removing, nbd_alloc_config() may be
called concurrently by nbd_genl_connect(), although try_module_get()
will return false, but nbd_alloc_config() doesn't handle it.
The race may lead to the leak of nbd_config and its related
resources (e.g, recv_workq) and oops in nbd_read_stat() due
to the unload of nbd module as shown below:

fs/ntfs3: Fix some memory leaks in an error handling path of 'log_replay()'
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: Fix some memory leaks in an error handling path of 'log_replay()'
All error handling paths lead to 'out' where many resources are freed.
Do it as well here instead of a direct return, otherwise 'log', 'ra' and
'log->one_page_buf' (at least) will leak.

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

While the check for format_count > 64 in __drm_universal_plane_init()
shouldn't be hit (it's a WARN_ON), in its current position it will then
leak the plane->format_types array and fail to call
drm_mode_object_unregister() leaking the modeset identifier. Move it to
the start of the function to avoid allocating those resources in the
first place.

ALSA: oss: Fix PCM OSS buffer allocation overflow
We've got syzbot reports hitting INT_MAX overflow at vmalloc()
allocation that is called from snd_pcm_plug_alloc(). Although we
apply the restrictions to input parameters, it's based only on the
hw_params of the underlying PCM device. Since the PCM OSS layer
allocates a temporary buffer for the data conversion, the size may
become unexpectedly large when more channels or higher rates is given;
in the reported case, it went over INT_MAX, hence it hits WARN_ON().
This patch is an attempt to avoid such an overflow and an all
ALSA: pcm: Fix races among concurrent hw_params and hw_free calls
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcm: Fix races among concurrent hw_params and hw_free calls
Currently we have neither proper check nor protection against the
concurrent calls of PCM hw_params and hw_free ioctls, which may result
in a UAF. Since the existing PCM stream lock can't be used for
protecting the whole ioctl operations, we need a new mutex to protect
those racy calls.
This patch introduced a new mutex, runtime->buffer_mutex, and applies
it to both hw_params and hw_free ioctl code paths. Along with it, the
both functions are slightly modified (the mmap_count check is moved
into the state-

While commit 6a01afcf8468 ("mac80211: mesh: Free ie data when leaving
