In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinctrl: nuvoton: fix a double free in ma35_pinctrl_dt_node_to_map_func()
'new_map' is allocated using devm_* which takes care of freeing the
allocated data on device removal, call to
.dt_free_map = pinconf_generic_dt_free_map
double frees the map as pinconf_generic_dt_free_map() calls
pinctrl_utils_free_map().
Fix this by using kcalloc() instead of auto-managed devm_kcalloc().

This only happens in 32-bit mode when VERW based mitigations like MDS/RFDS
are enabled. This is because segment registers with an arbitrary user value
can result in #GP when executing VERW. Intel SDM vol. 2C documents the
following behavior for VERW instruction:
#GP(0) - If a memory operand effective address is outside the CS, DS, ES,
FS, or GS segment limit.
CLEAR_CPU_BUFFERS macro executes VERW instruction before returning to user
space. Use %cs selector to reference VERW operand. This ensures VERW will
not #GP for an arbitrary user %ds.

[Analysis]
gsm_msg on the tx_ctrl_list or tx_data_list of gsm_mux
can be freed by multi threads through ioctl,which leads
to the occurrence of uaf. Protect it by gsm tx lock.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
parport: Proper fix for array out-of-bounds access
The recent fix for array out-of-bounds accesses replaced sprintf()
calls blindly with snprintf(). However, since snprintf() returns the
would-be-printed size, not the actually output size, the length
calculation can still go over the given limit.
Use scnprintf() instead of snprintf(), which returns the actually
output letters, for addressing the potential out-of-bounds access
properly.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xhci: tegra: fix checked USB2 port number
If USB virtualizatoin is enabled, USB2 ports are shared between all
Virtual Functions. The USB2 port number owned by an USB2 root hub in
a Virtual Function may be less than total USB2 phy number supported
by the Tegra XUSB controller.
Using total USB2 phy number as port number to check all PORTSC values
would cause invalid memory access.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vt: prevent kernel-infoleak in con_font_get()
font.data may not initialize all memory spaces depending on the implementation
of vc->vc_sw->con_font_get. This may cause info-leak, so to prevent this, it
is safest to modify it to initialize the allocated memory space to 0, and it
generally does not affect the overall performance of the system.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: ISO: Fix multiple init when debugfs is disabled
If bt_debugfs is not created successfully, which happens if either
CONFIG_DEBUG_FS or CONFIG_DEBUG_FS_ALLOW_ALL is unset, then iso_init()
returns early and does not set iso_inited to true. This means that a
subsequent call to iso_init() will result in duplicate calls to
proto_register(), bt_sock_register(), etc.
With CONFIG_LIST_HARDENED and CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION enabled, the
duplicate call to proto_register() triggers this BUG():
list_add double add: new=ffffffffc0b280d0, prev=ffffffffbab56250,
next=ffffffffc0b280d0.

This change removes the early return. The check for iso_debugfs being
