In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: Fix reset_method_store() memory leak
In reset_method_store(), a string is allocated via kstrndup() and assigned
to the local "options". options is then used in with strsep() to find
spaces:
while ((name = strsep(&options, " ")) != NULL) {
If there are no remaining spaces, then options is set to NULL by strsep(),
so the subsequent kfree(options) doesn't free the memory allocated via
kstrndup().
Fix by using a separate tmp_options to iterate with strsep() so options is
preserved.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, sockmap: Several fixes to bpf_msg_pop_data
Several fixes to bpf_msg_pop_data,
1. In sk_msg_shift_left, we should put_page
2. if (len == 0), return early is better
3. pop the entire sk_msg (last == msg->sg.size) should be supported
4. Fix for the value of variable "a"
5. In sk_msg_shift_left, after shifting, i has already pointed to the next
element. Addtional sk_msg_iter_var_next may result in BUG.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/CPU/AMD: Terminate the erratum_1386_microcode array
The erratum_1386_microcode array requires an empty entry at the end.
Otherwise x86_match_cpu_with_stepping() will continue iterate the array after
it ended.
Add an empty entry to erratum_1386_microcode to its end.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/hns: Fix cpu stuck caused by printings during reset
During reset, cmd to destroy resources such as qp, cq, and mr may fail,
and error logs will be printed. When a large number of resources are
destroyed, there will be lots of printings, and it may lead to a cpu
stuck.
Delete some unnecessary printings and replace other printing functions
in these paths with the ratelimited version.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mfd: intel_soc_pmic_bxtwc: Use IRQ domain for PMIC devices
While design wise the idea of converting the driver to use
the hierarchy of the IRQ chips is correct, the implementation
has (inherited) flaws. This was unveiled when platform_get_irq()
had started WARN() on IRQ 0 that is supposed to be a Linux
IRQ number (also known as vIRQ).
Rework the driver to respect IRQ domain when creating each MFD
device separately, as the domain is not the same for all of them.
