In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
eventpoll: Fix semi-unbounded recursion
Ensure that epoll instances can never form a graph deeper than
EP_MAX_NESTS+1 links.
Currently, ep_loop_check_proc() ensures that the graph is loop-free and
does some recursion depth checks, but those recursion depth checks don't
limit the depth of the resulting tree for two reasons:
- They don't look upwards in the tree.
- If there are multiple downwards paths of different lengths, only one of
the paths is actually considered for the depth check since commit
28d82dc1c4ed ("epoll: limit paths").
Essentially, the current rec

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: fbtft: fix potential memory leak in fbtft_framebuffer_alloc()
In the error paths after fb_info structure is successfully allocated,
the memory allocated in fb_deferred_io_init() for info->pagerefs is not
freed. Fix that by adding the cleanup function on the error path.
wifi: rtl818x: Kill URBs before clearing tx status queue
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtl818x: Kill URBs before clearing tx status queue
In rtl8187_stop() move the call of usb_kill_anchored_urbs() before clearing
b_tx_status.queue. This change prevents callbacks from using already freed
skb due to anchor was not killed before freeing such skb.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
padata: Fix pd UAF once and for all
There is a race condition/UAF in padata_reorder that goes back
to the initial commit. A reference count is taken at the start
of the process in padata_do_parallel, and released at the end in
padata_serial_worker.
This reference count is (and only is) required for padata_replace
to function correctly. If padata_replace is never called then
there is no issue.

as soon as padata is added to queue->serial.list, and the associated

powerpc/eeh: Make EEH driver device hotplug safe
Multiple race conditions existed between the PCIe hotplug driver and the
EEH driver, leading to a variety of kernel oopses of the same general
nature:
<pcie device unplug>
<eeh driver trigger>
<hotplug removal trigger>
<pcie tree reconfiguration>
<eeh recovery next step>
<oops in EEH driver bus iteration loop>
A second class of oops is also seen when the underlying bus disappears
during device recovery.
Refactor the EEH module to be PCI rescan and remove safe. Also clean
up a few minor formatting / readability issues.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: reject malicious packets in ipv6_gso_segment()
syzbot was able to craft a packet with very long IPv6 extension headers
leading to an overflow of skb->transport_header.
This 16bit field has a limited range.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/core: Exit early on perf_mmap() fail
When perf_mmap() fails to allocate a buffer, it still invokes the
event_mapped() callback of the related event. On X86 this might increase
the perf_rdpmc_allowed reference counter. But nothing undoes this as
perf_mmap_close() is never called in this case, which causes another
reference count leak.
Return early on failure to prevent that.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
perf/core: Prevent VMA split of buffer mappings
The perf mmap code is careful about mmap()'ing the user page with the
ringbuffer and additionally the auxiliary buffer, when the event supports
it. Once the first mapping is established, subsequent mapping have to use
the same offset and the same size in both cases. The reference counting for
the ringbuffer and the auxiliary buffer depends on this being correct.
Though perf does not prevent that a related mapping is split via mmap(2),
munmap(2) or mremap(2). A split of a VMA results in perf_mmap_open() calls,
which take refer
HID: core: Harden s32ton() against conversion to 0 bits
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: core: Harden s32ton() against conversion to 0 bits
Testing by the syzbot fuzzer showed that the HID core gets a
shift-out-of-bounds exception when it tries to convert a 32-bit
quantity to a 0-bit quantity. Ideally this should never occur, but
there are buggy devices and some might have a report field with size
set to zero; we shouldn't reject the report or the device just because
of that.
Instead, harden the s32ton() routine so that it returns a reasonable
result instead of crashing when it is called with the number of bits
set to 0 -- the same as what snto32() does.
usb: gadget : fix use-after-free in composite_dev_cleanup()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget : fix use-after-free in composite_dev_cleanup()
1. In func configfs_composite_bind() -> composite_os_desc_req_prepare():
if kmalloc fails, the pointer cdev->os_desc_req will be freed but not
set to NULL. Then it will return a failure to the upper-level function.
2. in func configfs_composite_bind() -> composite_dev_cleanup():
it will checks whether cdev->os_desc_req is NULL. If it is not NULL, it
will attempt to use it.This will lead to a use-after-free issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
atm: clip: Fix memory leak of struct clip_vcc.
ioctl(ATMARP_MKIP) allocates struct clip_vcc and set it to
vcc->user_back.
The code assumes that vcc_destroy_socket() passes NULL skb
to vcc->push() when the socket is close()d, and then clip_push()
frees clip_vcc.
However, ioctl(ATMARPD_CTRL) sets NULL to vcc->push() in
atm_init_atmarp(), resulting in memory leak.
Let's serialise two ioctl() by lock_sock() and check vcc->push()
in atm_init_atmarp() to prevent memleak.
net: appletalk: Fix device refcount leak in atrtr_create()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: appletalk: Fix device refcount leak in atrtr_create()
When updating an existing route entry in atrtr_create(), the old device
reference was not being released before assigning the new device,
leading to a device refcount leak. Fix this by calling dev_put() to
release the old device reference before holding the new one.
HID: quirks: Add quirk for 2 Chicony Electronics HP 5MP Cameras
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: quirks: Add quirk for 2 Chicony Electronics HP 5MP Cameras
The Chicony Electronics HP 5MP Cameras (USB ID 04F2:B824 & 04F2:B82C)
report a HID sensor interface that is not actually implemented.
Attempting to access this non-functional sensor via iio_info causes
system hangs as runtime PM tries to wake up an unresponsive sensor.
Add these 2 devices to the HID ignore list since the sensor interface is
non-functional by design and should not be exposed to userspace.
tracing: Add down_write(trace_event_sem) when adding trace event
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Add down_write(trace_event_sem) when adding trace event
When a module is loaded, it adds trace events defined by the module. It
may also need to modify the modules trace printk formats to replace enum
names with their values.
If two modules are loaded at the same time, the adding of the event to the
ftrace_events list can corrupt the walking of the list in the code that is
modifying the printk format strings and crash the kernel.
The addition of the event should take the trace_event_sem for write while
it adds the new event.
Also add a lockdep_assert_held() on t
dmaengine: nbpfaxi: Fix memory corruption in probe()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: nbpfaxi: Fix memory corruption in probe()
The nbpf->chan[] array is allocated earlier in the nbpf_probe() function
and it has "num_channels" elements. These three loops iterate one
element farther than they should and corrupt memory.
The changes to the second loop are more involved. In this case, we're
copying data from the irqbuf[] array into the nbpf->chan[] array. If
the data in irqbuf[i] is the error IRQ then we skip it, so the iterators
are not in sync. I added a check to ensure that we don't go beyond the
end of the irqbuf[] array. I'm pretty sure thi
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
comedi: pcl812: Fix bit shift out of bounds
When checking for a supported IRQ number, the following test is used:
if ((1 << it->options[1]) & board->irq_bits) {
However, `it->options[i]` is an unchecked `int` value from userspace, so
the shift amount could be negative or out of bounds. Fix the test by
requiring `it->options[1]` to be within bounds before proceeding with
the original test. Valid `it->options[1]` values that select the IRQ
will be in the range [1,15]. The value 0 explicitly disables the use of
interrupts.

pinctrl: qcom: msm: mark certain pins as invalid for interrupts
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: qcom: msm: mark certain pins as invalid for interrupts
On some platforms, the UFS-reset pin has no interrupt logic in TLMM but
is nevertheless registered as a GPIO in the kernel. This enables the
user-space to trigger a BUG() in the pinctrl-msm driver by running, for
example: `gpiomon -c 0 113` on RB2.
The exact culprit is requesting pins whose intr_detection_width setting
is not 1 or 2 for interrupts. This hits a BUG() in
msm_gpio_irq_set_type(). Potentially crashing the kernel due to an
invalid request from user-space is not optimal, so let's go through the
