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
rcuscale: Move rcu_scale_writer() schedule_timeout_uninterruptible() to _idle()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rcuscale: Move rcu_scale_writer() schedule_timeout_uninterruptible() to _idle()
The rcuscale.holdoff module parameter can be used to delay the start
of rcu_scale_writer() kthread. However, the hung-task timeout will
trigger when the timeout specified by rcuscale.holdoff is greater than
hung_task_timeout_secs:
runqemu kvm nographic slirp qemuparams="-smp 4 -m 2048M"
bootparams="rcuscale.shutdown=0 rcuscale.holdoff=300"

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.
Tested on a Acer Travelmate 4002WLMi
ARM: OMAP2+: Fix memory leak in realtime_counter_init()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ARM: OMAP2+: Fix memory leak in realtime_counter_init()
The "sys_clk" resource is malloced by clk_get(),
it is not released when the function return.
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:
ASoC: pxa: fix null-pointer dereference in filter()
kasprintf() would return NULL pointer when kmalloc() fail to allocate.
Need to check the return pointer before calling strcmp().
tcp: fix a signed-integer-overflow bug in tcp_add_backlog()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: fix a signed-integer-overflow bug in tcp_add_backlog()
The type of sk_rcvbuf and sk_sndbuf in struct sock is int, and
in tcp_add_backlog(), the variable limit is caculated by adding
sk_rcvbuf, sk_sndbuf and 64 * 1024, it may exceed the max value
of int and overflow. This patch reduces the limit budget by
halving the sndbuf to solve this issue since ACK packets are much
smaller than the payload.
nilfs2: fix shift-out-of-bounds due to too large exponent of block size
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: fix shift-out-of-bounds due to too large exponent of block size
If field s_log_block_size of superblock data is corrupted and too large,
init_nilfs() and load_nilfs() still can trigger a shift-out-of-bounds
warning followed by a kernel panic (if panic_on_warn is set):
shift exponent 38973 is too large for 32-bit type 'int'

apparmor: Fix memleak in alloc_ns()
After changes in commit a1bd627b46d1 ("apparmor: share profile name on
replacement"), the hname member of struct aa_policy is not valid slab
object, but a subset of that, it can not be freed by kfree_sensitive(),
use aa_policy_destroy() to fix it.
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.

pstore: Avoid kcore oops by vmap()ing with VM_IOREMAP
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pstore: Avoid kcore oops by vmap()ing with VM_IOREMAP
An oops can be induced by running 'cat /proc/kcore > /dev/null' on
devices using pstore with the ram backend because kmap_atomic() assumes
lowmem pages are accessible with __va().

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.
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.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: fix possible NULL pointer dereference in mtk_hwlro_get_fdir_all()
rule_locs is allocated in ethtool_get_rxnfc and the size is determined by
rule_cnt from user space. So rule_cnt needs to be check before using
rule_locs to avoid NULL pointer dereference.
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,
