In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
exfat: fix overflow for large capacity partition
Using int type for sector index, there will be overflow in a large
capacity partition.
For example, if storage with sector size of 512 bytes and partition
capacity is larger than 2TB, there will be overflow.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: core: Fix a use-after-free
There are two .exit_cmd_priv implementations. Both implementations use
resources associated with the SCSI host. Make sure that these resources are
still available when .exit_cmd_priv is called by waiting inside
scsi_remove_host() until the tag set has been freed.
This commit fixes the following use-after-free:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb3: fix temporary data corruption in insert range
insert range doesn't discard the affected cached region
so can risk temporarily corrupting file data.
Also includes some minor cleanup (avoiding rereading
inode size repeatedly unnecessarily) to make it clearer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb3: fix temporary data corruption in collapse range
collapse range doesn't discard the affected cached region
so can risk temporarily corrupting the file data. This
fixes xfstest generic/031
I also decided to merge a minor cleanup to this into the same patch
(avoiding rereading inode size repeatedly unnecessarily) to make it
clearer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: fix percpu memory leak at nf_tables_addchain()
It seems to me that percpu memory for chain stats started leaking since
commit 3bc158f8d0330f0a ("netfilter: nf_tables: map basechain priority to
hardware priority") when nft_chain_offload_priority() returned an error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_tables: fix nft_counters_enabled underflow at nf_tables_addchain()
syzbot is reporting underflow of nft_counters_enabled counter at
nf_tables_addchain() [1], for commit 43eb8949cfdffa76 ("netfilter:
nf_tables: do not leave chain stats enabled on error") missed that
nf_tables_chain_destroy() after nft_basechain_init() in the error path of
nf_tables_addchain() decrements the counter because nft_basechain_init()
makes nft_is_base_chain() return true by setting NFT_CHAIN_BASE flag.
Increment the counter immediately after returning from
nft_basechain_init().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: taprio: avoid disabling offload when it was never enabled
In an incredibly strange API design decision, qdisc->destroy() gets
called even if qdisc->init() never succeeded, not exclusively since
commit 87b60cfacf9f ("net_sched: fix error recovery at qdisc creation"),
but apparently also earlier (in the case of qdisc_create_dflt()).
The taprio qdisc does not fully acknowledge this when it attempts full
offload, because it starts off with q->flags = TAPRIO_FLAGS_INVALID in
taprio_init(), then it replaces q->flags with TCA_TAPRIO_ATTR_FLAGS
parsed from netlink (in taprio_change(), tail called from taprio_init()).
But in taprio_destroy(), we call taprio_disable_offload(), and this
determines what to do based on FULL_OFFLOAD_IS_ENABLED(q->flags).
But looking at the implementation of FULL_OFFLOAD_IS_ENABLED()
(a bitwise check of bit 1 in q->flags), it is invalid to call this macro
on q->flags when it contains TAPRIO_FLAGS_INVALID, because that is set
to U32_MAX, and therefore FULL_OFFLOAD_IS_ENABLED() will return true on
an invalid set of flags.
As a result, it is possible to crash the kernel if user space forces an
error between setting q->flags = TAPRIO_FLAGS_INVALID, and the calling
of taprio_enable_offload(). This is because drivers do not expect the
offload to be disabled when it was never enabled.
The error that we force here is to attach taprio as a non-root qdisc,
but instead as child of an mqprio root qdisc:
$ tc qdisc add dev swp0 root handle 1: \

Fix this by keeping track of the operations we made, and undo the
offload only if we actually did it.
I've added "bool offloaded" inside a 4 byte hole between "int clockid"
and "atomic64_t picos_per_byte". Now the first cache line looks like
below:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: enetc: deny offload of tc-based TSN features on VF interfaces
TSN features on the ENETC (taprio, cbs, gate, police) are configured
through a mix of command BD ring messages and port registers:
enetc_port_rd(), enetc_port_wr().
Port registers are a region of the ENETC memory map which are only
accessible from the PCIe Physical Function. They are not accessible from
the Virtual Functions.
Moreover, attempting to access these registers crashes the kernel:
