In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
FS: JFS: Fix null-ptr-deref Read in txBegin
Syzkaller reported an issue where txBegin may be called
on a superblock in a read-only mounted filesystem which leads
to NULL pointer deref. This could be solved by checking if
the filesystem is read-only before calling txBegin, and returning
with appropiate error code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla4xxx: Add length check when parsing nlattrs
There are three places that qla4xxx parses nlattrs:
- qla4xxx_set_chap_entry()
- qla4xxx_iface_set_param()
- qla4xxx_sysfs_ddb_set_param()
and each of them directly converts the nlattr to specific pointer of
structure without length checking. This could be dangerous as those
attributes are not validated and a malformed nlattr (e.g., length 0) could
result in an OOB read that leaks heap dirty data.
Add the nla_len check before accessing the nlattr data and return EINVAL if
the length check fails.

iio was allocated in atom_index_iio() called by atom_parse(),
but it doesn't got released when the dirver is shutdown.
Fix this kmemleak by free it in radeon_atombios_fini().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: multitouch: Correct devm device reference for hidinput input_dev name
Reference the HID device rather than the input device for the devm
allocation of the input_dev name. Referencing the input_dev would lead to a
use-after-free when the input_dev was unregistered and subsequently fires a
uevent that depends on the name. At the point of firing the uevent, the
name would be freed by devres management.
Use devm_kasprintf to simplify the logic for allocating memory and
formatting the input_dev name string.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
MIPS: vpe-mt: fix possible memory leak while module exiting
Afer commit 1fa5ae857bb1 ("driver core: get rid of struct device's
bus_id string array"), the name of device is allocated dynamically,
it need be freed when module exiting, call put_device() to give up
reference, so that it can be freed in kobject_cleanup() when the
refcount hit to 0. The vpe_device is static, so remove kfree() from
vpe_device_release().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix resolving backrefs for inline extent followed by prealloc
If a file consists of an inline extent followed by a regular or prealloc
extent, then a legitimate attempt to resolve a logical address in the
non-inline region will result in add_all_parents reading the invalid
offset field of the inline extent. If the inline extent item is placed
in the leaf eb s.t. it is the first item, attempting to access the
offset field will not only be meaningless, it will go past the end of
the eb and cause this panic:

incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when not need anymore.
Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.
