The Avada | Website Builder For WordPress & eCommerce plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Stored Cross-Site Scripting via the plugin's fusion_button shortcode in all versions up to, and including, 3.11.9 due to insufficient input sanitization and output escaping on user supplied attributes. This makes it possible for authenticated attackers, with contributor-level access and above, to inject arbitrary web scripts in pages that will execute whenever a user accesses an injected page. NOTE: This vulnerability was partially fixed in 3.11.9. Additional hardening for alternate attack vectors was added to version 3.11.10.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binfmt_elf_fdpic: fix AUXV size calculation when ELF_HWCAP2 is defined
create_elf_fdpic_tables() does not correctly account the space for the
AUX vector when an architecture has ELF_HWCAP2 defined. Prior to the
commit 10e29251be0e ("binfmt_elf_fdpic: fix /proc/<pid>/auxv") it
resulted in the last entry of the AUX vector being set to zero, but with
that change it results in a kernel BUG.
Fix that by adding one to the number of AUXV entries (nitems) when
ELF_HWCAP2 is defined.

[CAUSE]
Although I cannot reproduce the error, the report itself is good enough
to pin down the cause.
The call trace is the regular endio workqueue context, but the
free-by-task trace is showing that during btrfs_submit_chunk() we
already hit a critical error, and is calling btrfs_bio_end_io() to error
out. And the original endio function called bio_put() to free the whole
bio.
This means a double freeing thus causing use-after-free, e.g.:
1. Enter btrfs_submit_bio() with a read bio
The read bio length is 128K, crossing two 64K stripes.
2. The first run of btrfs_submit_chunk()
2.1 Call btrfs_map_block(), which returns 64K
2.2 Call btrfs_split_bio()
Now there are two bios, one referring to the first 64K, the other
referring to the second 64K.
2.3 The first half is submitted.
3. The second run of btrfs_submit_chunk()
3.1 Call btrfs_map_block(), which by somehow failed
Now we call btrfs_bio_end_io() to handle the error
3.2 btrfs_bio_end_io() calls the original endio function
Which is end_bbio_data_read(), and it calls bio_put() for the
original bio.
Now the original bio is freed.
4. The submitted first 64K bio finished
Now we call into btrfs_check_read_bio() and tries to advance the bio
iter.
But since the original bio (thus its iter) is already freed, we
trigger the above use-after free.
And even if the memory is not poisoned/corrupted, we will later call
the original endio function, causing a double freeing.
[FIX]
Instead of calling btrfs_bio_end_io(), call btrfs_orig_bbio_end_io(),
which has the extra check on split bios and do the pr

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: fix out-of-bound access when z_erofs_gbuf_growsize() partially fails
If z_erofs_gbuf_growsize() partially fails on a global buffer due to
memory allocation failure or fault injection (as reported by syzbot [1]),
new pages need to be freed by comparing to the existing pages to avoid
memory leaks.
However, the old gbuf->pages[] array may not be large enough, which can
lead to null-ptr-deref or out-of-bound access.
Fix this by checking against gbuf->nrpages in advance.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soc: qcom: cmd-db: Map shared memory as WC, not WB
Linux does not write into cmd-db region. This region of memory is write
protected by XPU. XPU may sometime falsely detect clean cache eviction
as "write" into the write protected region leading to secure interrupt
which causes an endless loop somewhere in Trust Zone.
The only reason it is working right now is because Qualcomm Hypervisor
maps the same region as Non-Cacheable memory in Stage 2 translation
tables. The issue manifests if we want to use another hypervisor (like
Xen or KVM), which does not know anything about those specific mappings.
Changing the mapping of cmd-db memory from MEMREMAP_WB to MEMREMAP_WT/WC
removes dependency on correct mappings in Stage 2 tables. This patch
fixes the issue by updating the mapping to MEMREMAP_WC.
I tested this on SA8155P with Xen.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: fix nfsd4_deleg_getattr_conflict in presence of third party lease
It is not safe to dereference fl->c.flc_owner without first confirming
fl->fl_lmops is the expected manager. nfsd4_deleg_getattr_conflict()
tests fl_lmops but largely ignores the result and assumes that flc_owner
is an nfs4_delegation anyway. This is wrong.
With this patch we restore the "!= &nfsd_lease_mng_ops" case to behave
as it did before the change mentioned below. This is the same as the
current code, but without any reference to a possible delegation.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: ucsi: Move unregister out of atomic section
Commit '9329933699b3 ("soc: qcom: pmic_glink: Make client-lock
non-sleeping")' moved the pmic_glink client list under a spinlock, as it
is accessed by the rpmsg/glink callback, which in turn is invoked from
IRQ context.
This means that ucsi_unregister() is now called from atomic context,
which isn't feasible as it's expecting a sleepable context. An effort is
under way to get GLINK to invoke its callbacks in a sleepable context,
but until then lets schedule the unregistration.
A side effect of this is that ucsi_unregister() can now happen
after the remote processor, and thereby the communication link with it, is
gone. pmic_glink_send() is amended with a check to avoid the resulting NULL
pointer dereference.
This does however result in the user being informed about this error by
the following entry in the kernel log:
ucsi_glink.pmic_glink_ucsi pmic_glink.ucsi.0: failed to send UCSI write request: -5
