In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: reserve space for inline xattr before attaching reflink tree
One of our customers reported a crash and a corrupted ocfs2 filesystem.
The crash was due to the detection of corruption. Upon troubleshooting,
the fsck -fn output showed the below corruption
[EXTENT_LIST_FREE] Extent list in owner 33080590 claims 230 as the next free chain record,
but fsck believes the largest valid value is 227. Clamp the next record value? n
The stat output from the debugfs.ocfs2 showed the following corruption
where the "Next Free Rec:" had overshot the "Count:" in the root metadata
block.

The issue was in the reflink workfow while reserving space for inline
xattr. The problematic function is ocfs2_reflink_xattr_inline(). By the
time this function is called the reflink tree is already recreated at the
destination inode from the source inode. At this point, this function
reserves space for inline xattrs at the destination inode without even
checking if there is space at the root metadata block. It simply reduces
the l_count from 243 to 227 thereby making space of 256 bytes for inline
xattr whereas the inode already has extents beyond this index (in this
case up to 230), thereby causing corruption.
The fix for this is to reserve space for inline metadata at the destination
inode before the reflink tree gets recreated. The customer has verified the
fix.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jbd2: stop waiting for space when jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() returns error
In __jbd2_log_wait_for_space(), we might call jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail()
to recover some journal space. But if an error occurs while executing
jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() (e.g., an EIO), we don't stop waiting for free
space right away, we try other branches, and if j_committing_transaction
is NULL (i.e., the tid is 0), we will get the following complain:
============================================
JBD2: I/O error when updating journal superblock for sdd-8.
__jbd2_log_wait_for_space: needed 256 blocks and only had 217 space available
__jbd2_log_wait_for_space: no way to get more journal space in sdd-8
------------[ cut here ]------------

============================================
So only if jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail() returns 1, i.e., there is nothing to
clean up at the moment, continue to try to reclaim free space in other ways.
Note that this fix relies on commit 6f6a6fda2945 ("jbd2: fix ocfs2 corrupt
when updating journal superblock fails") to make jbd2_cleanup_journal_tail
return the correct error code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: fix timer use-after-free on failed mount
Syzbot has found an ODEBUG bug in ext4_fill_super
The del_timer_sync function cancels the s_err_report timer,
which reminds about filesystem errors daily. We should
guarantee the timer is no longer active before kfree(sbi).
When filesystem mounting fails, the flow goes to failed_mount3,
where an error occurs when ext4_stop_mmpd is called, causing
a read I/O failure. This triggers the ext4_handle_error function
that ultimately re-arms the timer,
leaving the s_err_report timer active before kfree(sbi) is called.
Fix the issue by canceling the s_err_report timer after calling ext4_stop_mmpd.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPICA: check null return of ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED() in acpi_db_convert_to_package()
ACPICA commit 4d4547cf13cca820ff7e0f859ba83e1a610b9fd0
ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED() may fail, elements might be NULL and will cause
NULL pointer dereference later.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ocfs2: cancel dqi_sync_work before freeing oinfo
ocfs2_global_read_info() will initialize and schedule dqi_sync_work at the
end, if error occurs after successfully reading global quota, it will
trigger the following warning with CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_* enabled:
ODEBUG: free active (active state 0) object: 00000000d8b0ce28 object type: timer_list hint: qsync_work_fn+0x0/0x16c
This reports that there is an active delayed work when freeing oinfo in
error handling, so cancel dqi_sync_work first. BTW, return status instead
of -1 when .read_file_info fails.

When mounting the ext4 filesystem, if the default hash version is set to
DX_HASH_SIPHASH but the casefold feature is not set, exit the mounting.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix index out of bounds in DCN30 color transformation
This commit addresses a potential index out of bounds issue in the
`cm3_helper_translate_curve_to_hw_format` function in the DCN30 color
management module. The issue could occur when the index 'i' exceeds the
number of transfer function points (TRANSFER_FUNC_POINTS).
The fix adds a check to ensure 'i' is within bounds before accessing the
transfer function points. If 'i' is out of bounds, the function returns
false to indicate an error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Implement bounds check for stream encoder creation in DCN401
'stream_enc_regs' array is an array of dcn10_stream_enc_registers
structures. The array is initialized with four elements, corresponding
to the four calls to stream_enc_regs() in the array initializer. This
means that valid indices for this array are 0, 1, 2, and 3.
The error message 'stream_enc_regs' 4 <= 5 below, is indicating that
there is an attempt to access this array with an index of 5, which is
out of bounds. This could lead to undefined behavior
Here, eng_id is used as an index to access the stream_enc_regs array. If
eng_id is 5, this would result in an out-of-bounds access on the
stream_enc_regs array.
Thus fixing Buffer overflow error in dcn401_stream_encoder_create
Found by smatch:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/resource/dcn401/dcn401_resource.c:1209 dcn401_stream_encoder_create() error: buffer overflow 'stream_enc_regs' 4 <= 5

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: add more sanity checks to qdisc_pkt_len_init()
One path takes care of SKB_GSO_DODGY, assuming
skb->len is bigger than hdr_len.
virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() does not fully dissect TCP headers,
it only make sure it is at least 20 bytes.
It is possible for an user to provide a malicious 'GSO' packet,
total length of 80 bytes.
- 20 bytes of IPv4 header
- 60 bytes TCP header
- a small gso_size like 8
virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() would declare this packet as a normal
GSO packet, because it would see 40 bytes of payload,
bigger than gso_size.
We need to make detect this case to not underflow
qdisc_skb_cb(skb)->pkt_len.
