In ar5523_probe(), ar5523_host_available() calls ar5523_cmd() as below
(there are other functions which finally call ar5523_cmd()):
ar5523_probe()
-> ar5523_host_available()
-> ar5523_cmd_read()
-> ar5523_cmd()
If ar5523_cmd() timed out, then ar5523_host_available() failed and
ar5523_probe() freed the device structure. So, ar5523_cmd_tx_cb()
might touch the freed structure.
This patch fixes this issue by canceling in-flight tx cmd if submitted
urb timed out. |

nvmet-tcp: add bounds check on Transfer Tag

drm/amdgpu: fix pci device refcount leak
As comment of pci_get_domain_bus_and_slot() says, it returns
a pci device with refcount increment, when finish using it,
the caller must decrement the reference count by calling
pci_dev_put().
So before returning from amdgpu_device_resume|suspend_display_audio(),
pci_dev_put() is called to avoid refcount leak. |

hte: tegra-194: Fix off by one in tegra_hte_map_to_line_id()
The "map_sz" is the number of elements in the "m" array so the >

net/mlx5e: xsk: Fix invalid buffer access for legacy rq
The below crash can be encountered when using xdpsock in rx mode for
legacy rq: the buffer gets released in the XDP_REDIRECT path, and then
once again in the driver. This fix sets the flag to avoid releasing on
the driver side.
XSK handling of buffers for legacy rq was relying on the caller to set
the skip release flag. But the referenced fix started using fragment
counts for pages instead of the skip flag.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/apic: Don't disable x2APIC if locked
The APIC supports two modes, legacy APIC (or xAPIC), and Extended APIC
(or x2APIC). X2APIC mode is mostly compatible with legacy APIC, but
it disables the memory-mapped APIC interface in favor of one that uses
MSRs. The APIC mode is controlled by the EXT bit in the APIC MSR.
The MMIO/xAPIC interface has some problems, most notably the APIC LEAK
[1]. This bug allows an attacker to use the APIC MMIO interface to
extract data from the SGX enclave.
Introduce support for a new feature that will allow the BIOS to lock
the APIC in x2APIC mode. If the APIC is locked in x2APIC mode and the
kernel tries to disable the APIC or revert to legacy APIC mode a GP
fault will occur.
Introduce support for a new MSR (IA32_XAPIC_DISABLE_STATUS) and handle
the new locked mode when the LEGACY_XAPIC_DISABLED bit is set by
preventing the kernel from trying to disable the x2APIC.
On platforms with the IA32_XAPIC_DISABLE_STATUS MSR, if SGX or TDX are
enabled the LEGACY_XAPIC_DISABLED will be set by the BIOS. If
legacy APIC is required, then it SGX and TDX need to be disabled in the
BIOS.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
regulator: raa215300: Fix resource leak in case of error
The clk_register_clkdev() allocates memory by calling vclkdev_alloc() and
this memory is not freed in the error path. Similarly, resources allocated
by clk_register_fixed_rate() are not freed in the error path.
Fix these issues by using devm_clk_hw_register_fixed_rate() and
devm_clk_hw_register_clkdev().
After this, the static variable clk is not needed. Replace it withÂ
local variable hw in probe() and drop calling clk_unregister_fixed_rate()
from raa215300_rtc_unregister_device(). |

scsi: ufs: core: Fix data race in CPU latency PM QoS request handling
The cpu_latency_qos_add/remove/update_request interfaces lack internal
synchronization by design, requiring the caller to ensure thread safety.
The current implementation relies on the 'pm_qos_enabled' flag, which is
insufficient to prevent concurrent access and cannot serve as a proper
synchronization mechanism. This has led to data races and list
corruption issues.
A typical race condition call trace is:
[Thread A]
ufshcd_pm_qos_exit()
--> cpu_latency_qos_remove_request()
--> cpu_latency_qos_apply();
--> pm_qos_update_target()
--> plist_del <--(1) delete plist node
--> memset(req, 0, sizeof(*req));
--> hba->pm_qos_enabled = false;
[Thread B]
ufshcd_devfreq_target
--> ufshcd_devfreq_scale
--> ufshcd_scale_clks
--> ufshcd_pm_qos_update <--(2) pm_qos_enabled is true
--> cpu_latency_qos_update_request
--> pm_qos_update_target
--> plist_del <--(3) plist node use-after-free
Introduces a dedicated mutex to serialize PM QoS operations, preventing
data races and ensuring safe access to PM QoS resources, including sysfs
interface reads. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
amba: bus: fix refcount leak
commit 5de1540b7bc4 ("drivers/amba: create devices from device tree")
increases the refcount of of_node, but not releases it in
amba_device_release, so there is refcount leak. By using of_node_put
to avoid refcount leak. |

net: libwx: fix memory leak in wx_setup_rx_resources
When wx_alloc_page_pool() failed in wx_setup_rx_resources(), it doesn't
release DMA buffer. Add dma_free_coherent() in the error path to release
the DMA buffer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: ISO: Fix possible UAF on iso_conn_free
This attempt to fix similar issue to sco_conn_free where if the
conn->sk is not set to NULL may lead to UAF on iso_conn_free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: qcom-adm: fix wrong calling convention for prep_slave_sg
The calling convention for pre_slave_sg is to return NULL on error and
provide an error log to the system. Qcom-adm instead provide error
pointer when an error occur. This indirectly cause kernel panic for
example for the nandc driver that checks only if the pointer returned by
device_prep_slave_sg is not NULL. Returning an error pointer makes nandc
think the device_prep_slave_sg function correctly completed and makes
the kernel panics later in the code.
While nandc is the one that makes the kernel crash, it was pointed out
that the real problem is qcom-adm not following calling convention for
that function.
To fix this, drop returning error pointer and return NULL with an error
log. |

...
It is because the error handling in vidtv_bridge_dvb_init() is wrong.
First, vidtv_bridge_dmx(dev)_init() will clean themselves when fail, but
goto fail_dmx(_dev): calls release functions again, which causes
use-after-free.
Also, in fail_fe, fail_tuner_probe and fail_demod_probe, j = i will cause
out-of-bound when i finished its loop (i == NUM_FE). And the loop
releasing is wrong, although now NUM_FE is 1 so it won't cause problem.
Fix this by correctly releasing everything. |

net/mlx5: Fix possible use-after-free in async command interface
mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx should return only after all its callback
handlers were completed. Before this patch, the below race between
mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx and mlx5_cmd_exec_cb_handler was possible and
lead to a use-after-free:
1. mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx is called while num_inflight is 2 (i.e.
elevated by 1, a single inflight callback).
2. mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx decreases num_inflight to 1.
3. mlx5_cmd_exec_cb_handler is called, decreases num_inflight to 0 and
is about to call wake_up().
4. mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx calls wait_event, which returns
immediately as the condition (num_inflight == 0) holds.
5. mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx returns.
6. The caller of mlx5_cmd_cleanup_async_ctx frees the mlx5_async_ctx
object.
7. mlx5_cmd_exec_cb_handler goes on and calls wake_up() on the freed
object.
Fix it by syncing using a completion object. Mark it completed when
num_inflight reaches 0.

s390/lcs: Fix return type of lcs_start_xmit()
With clang's kernel control flow integrity (kCFI, CONFIG_CFI_CLANG),
indirect call targets are validated against the expected function
pointer prototype to make sure the call target is valid to help mitigate
ROP attacks. If they are not identical, there is a failure at run time,
which manifests as either a kernel panic or thread getting killed. A
proposed warning in clang aims to catch these at compile time, which
reveals:
drivers/s390/net/lcs.c:2090:21: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'netdev_tx_t (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' (aka 'enum netdev_tx (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)') with an expression of type 'int (struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
.ndo_start_xmit = lcs_start_xmit,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/s390/net/lcs.c:2097:21: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'netdev_tx_t (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' (aka 'enum netdev_tx (*)(struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)') with an expression of type 'int (struct sk_buff *, struct net_device *)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
.ndo_start_xmit = lcs_start_xmit,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
->ndo_start_xmit() in 'struct net_device_ops' expects a return type of
'netdev_tx_t', not 'int'. Adjust the return type of lcs_start_xmit() to
match the prototype's to resolve the warning and potential CFI failure,
should s390 select ARCH_SUPPORTS_CFI_CLANG in the future. |
