As 'ext4_rename' will modify 'old.inode' ctime and mark inode dirty,
which may trigger expand 'extra_isize' and allocate block. If inode
didn't init quota will lead to warning. To solve above issue, init
'old.inode' firstly in 'ext4_rename'.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
misc: tifm: fix possible memory leak in tifm_7xx1_switch_media()
If device_register() returns error in tifm_7xx1_switch_media(),
name of kobject which is allocated in dev_set_name() called in device_add()
is leaked.
Never directly free @dev after calling device_register(), even
if it returned an error! Always use put_device() to give up the
reference initialized.

This is because in scatterwalk_copychunks(), we attempted to write to
a buffer (@sign) that was allocated in the stack (vmalloc area) by
crypt_message() and thus accessing its remaining 8 (x2) bytes ended up
crossing a page boundary.
To simply fix it, we could just pass @sign kmalloc'd from
crypt_message() and then we're done. Luckily, we don't seem to pass
any other vmalloc'd buffers in smb_rqst::rq_iov...
Instead, let's map the correct pages and offsets from vmalloc buffers
as well in cifs_sg_set_buf() and then avoiding such oopses.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rapidio: fix possible name leaks when rio_add_device() fails
Patch series "rapidio: fix three possible memory leaks".
This patchset fixes three name leaks in error handling.
- patch #1 fixes two name leaks while rio_add_device() fails.
- patch #2 fixes a name leak while rio_register_mport() fails.
This patch (of 2):
If rio_add_device() returns error, the name allocated by dev_set_name()
need be freed. It should use put_device() to give up the reference in the
error path, so that the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup(), and the
'rdev' can be freed in rio_release_dev().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
atm: atmtcp: Prevent arbitrary write in atmtcp_recv_control().
syzbot reported the splat below. [0]
When atmtcp_v_open() or atmtcp_v_close() is called via connect()
or close(), atmtcp_send_control() is called to send an in-kernel
special message.
The message has ATMTCP_HDR_MAGIC in atmtcp_control.hdr.length.
Also, a pointer of struct atm_vcc is set to atmtcp_control.vcc.
The notable thing is struct atmtcp_control is uAPI but has a
space for an in-kernel pointer.
struct atmtcp_control {
struct atmtcp_hdr hdr; /* must be first */
...
atm_kptr_t vcc; /* both directions */
...
} __ATM_API_ALIGN;
typedef struct { unsigned char _[8]; } __ATM_API_ALIGN atm_kptr_t;
The special message is processed in atmtcp_recv_control() called
from atmtcp_c_send().
atmtcp_c_send() is vcc->dev->ops->send() and called from 2 paths:
1. .ndo_start_xmit() (vcc->send() == atm_send_aal0())
2. vcc_sendmsg()
The problem is sendmsg() does not validate the message length and
userspace can abuse atmtcp_recv_control() to overwrite any kptr
by atmtcp_control.
Let's add a new ->pre_send() hook to validate messages from sendmsg().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: rose: convert 'use' field to refcount_t
The 'use' field in struct rose_neigh is used as a reference counter but
lacks atomicity. This can lead to race conditions where a rose_neigh
structure is freed while still being referenced by other code paths.
For example, when rose_neigh->use becomes zero during an ioctl operation
via rose_rt_ioctl(), the structure may be removed while its timer is
still active, potentially causing use-after-free issues.
This patch changes the type of 'use' from unsigned short to refcount_t and
updates all code paths to use rose_neigh_hold() and rose_neigh_put() which
operate reference counts atomically.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: rose: include node references in rose_neigh refcount
Current implementation maintains two separate reference counting
mechanisms: the 'count' field in struct rose_neigh tracks references from
rose_node structures, while the 'use' field (now refcount_t) tracks
references from rose_sock.
This patch merges these two reference counting systems using 'use' field
for proper reference management. Specifically, this patch adds incrementing
and decrementing of rose_neigh->use when rose_neigh->count is incremented
or decremented.
This patch also modifies rose_rt_free(), rose_rt_device_down() and
rose_clear_route() to properly release references to rose_neigh objects
before freeing a rose_node through rose_remove_node().
These changes ensure rose_neigh structures are properly freed only when
all references, including those from rose_node structures, are released.
As a result, this resolves a slab-use-after-free issue reported by Syzbot.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
efivarfs: Fix slab-out-of-bounds in efivarfs_d_compare
Observed on kernel 6.6 (present on master as well):
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in memcmp+0x98/0xd0

If dentry->d_name.len < EFI_VARIABLE_GUID_LEN , 'guid' can become
negative, leadings to oob. The issue can be triggered by parallel
lookups using invalid filename:
T1 T2
lookup_open
->lookup
simple_lookup
d_add
// invalid dentry is added to hash list
lookup_open
d_alloc_parallel
__d_lookup_rcu
__d_lookup_rcu_op_compare
hlist_bl_for_each_entry_rcu
// invalid dentry can be retrieved
->d_compare
efivarfs_d_compare
// oob
Fix it by checking 'guid' before cmp.
