In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: Fix use after free on unload
System crash is observed with stack trace warning of use after
free. There are 2 signals to tell dpc_thread to terminate (UNLOADING
flag and kthread_stop).
On setting the UNLOADING flag when dpc_thread happens to run at the time
and sees the flag, this causes dpc_thread to exit and clean up
itself. When kthread_stop is called for final cleanup, this causes use
after free.
Remove UNLOADING signal to terminate dpc_thread. Use the kthread_stop
as the main signal to exit dpc_thread.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
af_packet: avoid erroring out after sock_init_data() in packet_create()
After sock_init_data() the allocated sk object is attached to the provided
sock object. On error, packet_create() frees the sk object leaving the
dangling pointer in the sock object on return. Some other code may try
to use this pointer and cause use-after-free.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix out-of-bounds access in 'dcn21_link_encoder_create'
An issue was identified in the dcn21_link_encoder_create function where
an out-of-bounds access could occur when the hpd_source index was used
to reference the link_enc_hpd_regs array. This array has a fixed size
and the index was not being checked against the array's bounds before
accessing it.
This fix adds a conditional check to ensure that the hpd_source index is
within the valid range of the link_enc_hpd_regs array. If the index is
out of bounds, the function now returns NULL to prevent undefined
behavior.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/mempolicy: fix migrate_to_node() assuming there is at least one VMA in a MM
We currently assume that there is at least one VMA in a MM, which isn't
true.
So we might end up having find_vma() return NULL, to then de-reference
NULL. So properly handle find_vma() returning NULL.
This fixes the report:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/gup: handle NULL pages in unpin_user_pages()
The recent addition of "pofs" (pages or folios) handling to gup has a
flaw: it assumes that unpin_user_pages() handles NULL pages in the pages**
array. That's not the case, as I discovered when I ran on a new
configuration on my test machine.
Fix this by skipping NULL pages in unpin_user_pages(), just like
unpin_folios() already does.
Details: when booting on x86 with "numa=fake=2 movablecore=4G" on Linux
6.12, and running this:
tools/testing/selftests/mm/gup_longterm
...I get the following crash:

...
This issue can be consistently reproduced on three different servers:
* a 448-core server
* a 256-core server
* a 192-core server
[Root Cause]
Since multiple threads are created by the hackbench program (along with
the command argument 'thread'), a shared vma might be accessed by two or
more cores simultaneously. When two or more cores observe that
vma->numab_state is NULL at the same time, vma->numab_state will be
overwritten.
Although current code ensures that only one thread scans the VMAs in a
single 'numa_scan_period', there might be a chance for another thread
to enter in the next 'numa_scan_period' while we have not gotten till
numab_state allocation [1].
Note that the command `/opt/ltp/testcases/bin/hackbench 50 process 1000`
cannot the reproduce the issue. It is verified with 200+ test runs.
[Solution]
Use the cmpxchg atomic operation to ensure that only one thread executes
the vma->numab_state assignment.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xsk: fix OOB map writes when deleting elements
Jordy says:
"
In the xsk_map_delete_elem function an unsigned integer
(map->max_entries) is compared with a user-controlled signed integer
(k). Due to implicit type conversion, a large unsigned value for
map->max_entries can bypass the intended bounds check:
if (k >= map->max_entries)
return -EINVAL;
This allows k to hold a negative value (between -2147483648 and -2),
which is then used as an array index in m->xsk_map[k], which results
in an out-of-bounds access.
spin_lock_bh(&m->lock);
map_entry = &m->xsk_map[k]; // Out-of-bounds map_entry
old_xs = unrcu_pointer(xchg(map_entry, NULL)); // Oob write
if (old_xs)
xsk_map_sock_delete(old_xs, map_entry);
spin_unlock_bh(&m->lock);
The xchg operation can then be used to cause an out-of-bounds write.
Moreover, the invalid map_entry passed to xsk_map_sock_delete can lead
to further memory corruption.
"
It indeed results in following splat:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jfs: array-index-out-of-bounds fix in dtReadFirst
The value of stbl can be sometimes out of bounds due
to a bad filesystem. Added a check with appopriate return
of error code in that case.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath10k: avoid NULL pointer error during sdio remove
When running 'rmmod ath10k', ath10k_sdio_remove() will free sdio
workqueue by destroy_workqueue(). But if CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON
is set to yes, kernel panic will happen:
Call trace:
destroy_workqueue+0x1c/0x258
ath10k_sdio_remove+0x84/0x94
sdio_bus_remove+0x50/0x16c
device_release_driver_internal+0x188/0x25c
device_driver_detach+0x20/0x2c
This is because during 'rmmod ath10k', ath10k_sdio_remove() will call
ath10k_core_destroy() before destroy_workqueue(). wiphy_dev_release()
will finally be called in ath10k_core_destroy(). This function will free
struct cfg80211_registered_device *rdev and all its members, including
wiphy, dev and the pointer of sdio workqueue. Then the pointer of sdio
workqueue will be set to NULL due to CONFIG_INIT_ON_FREE_DEFAULT_ON.
After device release, destroy_workqueue() will use NULL pointer then the
kernel panic happen.
Call trace:
ath10k_sdio_remove
->ath10k_core_unregister
……
->ath10k_core_stop
->ath10k_hif_stop
->ath10k_sdio_irq_disable
->ath10k_hif_power_down
->del_timer_sync(&ar_sdio->sleep_timer)
->ath10k_core_destroy
->ath10k_mac_destroy
->ieee80211_free_hw
->wiphy_free
……
->wiphy_dev_release
->destroy_workqueue
Need to call destroy_workqueue() before ath10k_core_destroy(), free
the work queue buffer first and then free pointer of work queue by
ath10k_core_destroy(). This order matches the error path order in
ath10k_sdio_probe().
No work will be queued on sdio workqueue between it is destroyed and
ath10k_core_destroy() is called. Based on the call_stack above, the
reason is:
Only ath10k_sdio_sleep_timer_handler(), ath10k_sdio_hif_tx_sg() and
ath10k_sdio_irq_disable() will queue work on sdio workqueue.
Sleep timer will be deleted before ath10k_core_destroy() in
ath10k_hif_power_down().
ath10k_sdio_irq_disable() only be called in ath10k_hif_stop().
ath10k_core_unregister() will call ath10k_hif_power_down() to stop hif
bus, so ath10k_sdio_hif_tx_sg() won't be called anymore.
