In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: samsung: Fix memory leak in _samsung_clk_register_pll()
If clk_register() fails, @pll->rate_table may have allocated memory by
kmemdup(), so it needs to be freed, otherwise will cause memory leak
issue, this patch fixes it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/vmwgfx: Validate the box size for the snooped cursor
Invalid userspace dma surface copies could potentially overflow
the memcpy from the surface to the snooped image leading to crashes.
To fix it the dimensions of the copybox have to be validated
against the expected size of the snooped cursor.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: tegra20: Fix refcount leak in tegra20_clock_init
of_find_matching_node() returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when not need anymore.
Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.

drm/msm/hdmi: fix memory corruption with too many bridges
Add the missing sanity check on the bridge counter to avoid corrupting
data beyond the fixed-sized bridge array in case there are ever more
than eight bridges.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: ac97: fix possible memory leak in snd_ac97_dev_register()
If device_register() fails in snd_ac97_dev_register(), it should
call put_device() to give up reference, or the name allocated in
dev_set_name() is leaked.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: aoa: i2sbus: fix possible memory leak in i2sbus_add_dev()
dev_set_name() in soundbus_add_one() allocates memory for name, it need be
freed when of_device_register() fails, call soundbus_dev_put() to give up
the reference that hold in device_initialize(), so that it can be freed in
kobject_cleanup() when the refcount hit to 0. And other resources are also
freed in i2sbus_release_dev(), so it can return 0 directly.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: libsas: Fix use-after-free bug in smp_execute_task_sg()
When executing SMP task failed, the smp_execute_task_sg() calls del_timer()
to delete "slow_task->timer". However, if the timer handler
sas_task_internal_timedout() is running, the del_timer() in
smp_execute_task_sg() will not stop it and a UAF will happen. The process
is shown below:
(thread 1) | (thread 2)
smp_execute_task_sg() | sas_task_internal_timedout()
... |
del_timer() |
... | ...
sas_free_task(task) |
kfree(task->slow_task) //FREE|
| task->slow_task->... //USE
Fix by calling del_timer_sync() in smp_execute_task_sg(), which makes sure
the timer handler have finished before the "task->slow_task" is
deallocated.

ACPICA: Fix use-after-free in acpi_ut_copy_ipackage_to_ipackage()
There is an use-after-free reported by KASAN:

The root cause of the problem is that the acpi_operand_object
is freed when acpi_ut_walk_package_tree() fails in
acpi_ut_copy_ipackage_to_ipackage(), lead to repeated release in
acpi_ut_copy_iobject_to_iobject(). The problem was introduced
by "8aa5e56eeb61" commit, this commit is to fix memory leak in
acpi_ut_copy_iobject_to_iobject(), repeatedly adding remove
operation, lead to "acpi_operand_object" used after free.
Fix it by removing acpi_ut_remove_reference() in
acpi_ut_copy_ipackage_to_ipackage(). acpi_ut_copy_ipackage_to_ipackage()
is called to copy an internal package object into another internal
package object, when it fails, the memory of acpi_operand_object
should be freed by the caller.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: Fix UBSAN shift-out-of-bounds warning
If get_num_sdma_queues or get_num_xgmi_sdma_queues is 0, we end up
doing a shift operation where the number of bits shifted equals
number of bits in the operand. This behaviour is undefined.
Set num_sdma_queues or num_xgmi_sdma_queues to ULLONG_MAX, if the
count is >= number of bits in the operand.
