In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix bug_on ext4_mb_use_inode_pa
Hulk Robot reported a BUG_ON:

ext4_mb_use_inode_pa
>>> set ac->ac_b_ex.fe_len <= 0
ext4_mb_mark_diskspace_used
>>> BUG_ON(ac->ac_b_ex.fe_len <= 0);
we can easily reproduce this problem with the following commands:
`fallocate -l100M disk`
`mkfs.ext4 -b 1024 -g 256 disk`
`mount disk /mnt`
`fsstress -d /mnt -l 0 -n 1000 -p 1`
The size must be smaller than or equal to EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP.
Therefore, "start + size <= ac->ac_o_ex.fe_logical" may occur
when the size is truncated. So start should be the start position of
the group where ac_o_ex.fe_logical is located after alignment.
In addition, when the value of fe_logical or EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP
is very large, the value calculated by start_off is more accurate.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm mirror log: round up region bitmap size to BITS_PER_LONG
The code in dm-log rounds up bitset_size to 32 bits. It then uses
find_next_zero_bit_le on the allocated region. find_next_zero_bit_le
accesses the bitmap using unsigned long pointers. So, on 64-bit
architectures, it may access 4 bytes beyond the allocated size.
Fix this bug by rounding up bitset_size to BITS_PER_LONG.
This bug was found by running the lvm2 testsuite with kasan.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bus: fsl-mc-bus: fix KASAN use-after-free in fsl_mc_bus_remove()
In fsl_mc_bus_remove(), mc->root_mc_bus_dev->mc_io is passed to
fsl_destroy_mc_io(). However, mc->root_mc_bus_dev is already freed in
fsl_mc_device_remove(). Then reference to mc->root_mc_bus_dev->mc_io
triggers KASAN use-after-free. To avoid the use-after-free, keep the
reference to mc->root_mc_bus_dev->mc_io in a local variable and pass to
fsl_destroy_mc_io().
This patch needs rework to apply to kernels older than v5.15.

This happens because:
1) Before entering close_ctree() we have the async block group reclaim
task running and relocating a data block group;
2) There's an async metadata (or data) space reclaim task running;
3) We enter close_ctree() and park the cleaner kthread;
4) The async space reclaim task is at flush_space() and runs all the
existing delayed iputs;
5) Before the async space reclaim task calls
btrfs_wait_on_delayed_iputs(), the block group reclaim task which is
doing the data block group relocation, creates a delayed iput at
replace_file_extents() (called when COWing leaves that have file extent
items pointing to relocated data exten

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: ibmvfc: Store vhost pointer during subcrq allocation
Currently the back pointer from a queue to the vhost adapter isn't set
until after subcrq interrupt registration. The value is available when a
queue is first allocated and can/should be also set for primary and async
queues as well as subcrqs.
This fixes a crash observed during kexec/kdump on Power 9 with legacy XICS
interrupt controller where a pending subcrq interrupt from the previous
kernel can be replayed immediately upon IRQ registration resulting in
dereference of a garbage backpointer in ibmvfc_interrupt_scsi().
Kernel attempted to read user page (58) - exploit attempt? (uid: 0)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: disable the elevator int del_gendisk
The elevator is only used for file system requests, which are stopped in
del_gendisk. Move disabling the elevator and freeing the scheduler tags
to the end of del_gendisk instead of doing that work in disk_release and
blk_cleanup_queue to avoid a use after free on q->tag_set from
disk_release as the tag_set might not be alive at that point.
Move the blk_qos_exit call as well, as it just depends on the elevator
exit and would be the only reason to keep the not exactly cheap queue
freeze in disk_release.
