Security Vulnerabilities

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
brcmfmac: return error when getting invalid max_flowrings from dongle
When firmware hit trap at initialization, host will read abnormal
max_flowrings number from dongle, and it will cause kernel panic when
doing iowrite to initialize dongle ring.
To detect this error at early stage, we directly return error when getting
invalid max_flowrings(>256).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: cx88: Fix a null-ptr-deref bug in buffer_prepare()
When the driver calls cx88_risc_buffer() to prepare the buffer, the
function call may fail, resulting in a empty buffer and null-ptr-deref
later in buffer_queue().
The following log can reveal it:

Fix this by checking the return value of cx88_risc_buffer()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm/dp: fix aux-bus EP lifetime
Device-managed resources allocated post component bind must be tied to
the lifetime of the aggregate DRM device or they will not necessarily be
released when binding of the aggregate device is deferred.
This can lead resource leaks or failure to bind the aggregate device
when binding is later retried and a second attempt to allocate the
resources is made.
For the DP aux-bus, an attempt to populate the bus a second time will
simply fail ("DP AUX EP device already populated").
Fix this by tying the lifetime of the EP device to the DRM device rather
than DP controller platform device.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: wilc1000: add missing unregister_netdev() in wilc_netdev_ifc_init()
Fault injection test reports this issue:

unregister operation in error handling path.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dmaengine: hisilicon: Add multi-thread support for a DMA channel
When we get a DMA channel and try to use it in multiple threads it
will cause oops and hanging the system.

This occurs because the transmission timed out, and that's due
to data race. Each thread rewrite channels's descriptor as soon as
device_issue_pending is called. It leads to the situation that
the driver thinks that it uses the right descriptor in interrupt
handler while channels's descriptor has been changed by other
thread. The descriptor which in fact reported interrupt will not
be handled any more, as well as its tx->callback.
That's why timeout reports.
With current fixes channels' descriptor changes it's value only
when it has been used. A new descriptor is acquired from
vc->desc_issued queue that is already filled with descriptors
that are ready to be sent. Threads have no direct access to DMA
channel descriptor. In case of channel's descriptor is busy, try
to submit to HW again when a descriptor is completed. In this case,
vc->desc_issued may be empty when hisi_dma_start_transfer is called,
so delete error reporting on this. Now it is just possible to queue
a descriptor for further processing.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: wmt-sdmmc: fix return value check of mmc_add_host()
mmc_add_host() may return error, if we ignore its return value, the memory
that allocated in mmc_alloc_host() will be leaked and it will lead a kernel
crash because of deleting not added device in the remove path.
So fix this by checking the return value and goto error path which will call
mmc_free_host(), besides, clk_disable_unprepare() also needs be called.
Jenkins 2.527 and earlier, LTS 2.516.2 and earlier does not perform a permission check in the sidepanel of a page intentionally accessible to users lacking Overall/Read permission, allowing attackers without Overall/Read permission to list agent names through its sidepanel executors widget.
Jenkins 2.527 and earlier, LTS 2.516.2 and earlier does not perform a permission check for the authenticated user profile dropdown menu, allowing attackers without Overall/Read permission to obtain limited information about the Jenkins configuration by listing available options in this menu (e.g., whether Credentials Plugin is installed).
Jenkins 2.527 and earlier, LTS 2.516.2 and earlier does not restrict or transform the characters that can be inserted from user-specified content in log messages, allowing attackers able to control log message contents to insert line break characters, followed by forged log messages that may mislead administrators reviewing log output.
Open5GS v2.7.5, prior to commit 67ba7f92bbd7a378954895d96d9d7b05d5b64615, is vulnerable to a NULL pointer dereference when a multipart/related HTTP POST request with an empty HTTP body is sent to the SBI of either AMF, AUSF, BSF, NRF, NSSF, PCF, SMF, UDM, or UDR, resulting in a denial of service. This occurs in the parse_multipart function in lib/sbi/message.c.
