Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix NULL pointer dereference in bpf_sk_storage_clone and diag paths
bpf_selem_unlink_nofail() sets SDATA(selem)->smap to NULL before
removing the selem from the storage hlist. A concurrent RCU reader in
bpf_sk_storage_clone() can observe the selem still on the list with
smap already NULL, causing a NULL pointer dereference.
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc000000000a:

Add a NULL check for smap in bpf_sk_storage_clone().
bpf_sk_storage_diag_put_all() has the same issue. Add a NULL check
and pass the validated smap directly to diag_get(), which is refactored
to take smap as a parameter instead of reading it internally.
bpf_sk_storage_diag_put() uses diag->maps[i] which is always valid
under its refcount, so diag->maps[i] is passed directly to diag_get().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/rds: fix NULL deref in rds_ib_send_cqe_handler() on masked atomic completion
rds_ib_xmit_atomic() always programs a masked atomic opcode
(IB_WR_MASKED_ATOMIC_CMP_AND_SWP or IB_WR_MASKED_ATOMIC_FETCH_AND_ADD)
for every RDS atomic cmsg. But the completion-side switch in
rds_ib_send_unmap_op() only handles the non-masked opcodes, so a masked
atomic completion falls through to default and returns rm == NULL while
send->s_op is left set. rds_ib_send_cqe_handler() then dereferences the
NULL rm via rm->m_final_op, oopsing in softirq context. An unprivileged
AF_RDS sendmsg() of an atomic cmsg over an active RDS/IB connection
triggers it; on hardware that natively accepts masked atomics (mlx4,
mlx5) no extra setup is needed.

Handle the masked atomic opcodes in the same case as the non-masked
ones: they map to the same struct rds_message.atomic union member, so
the existing container_of()/rds_ib_send_unmap_atomic() body is correct
for them.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tun: zero the whole vnet header in tun_put_user()
tun_put_user() declares an on-stack struct virtio_net_hdr_v1_hash_tunnel
without zeroing it. For a non-tunnel skb, virtio_net_hdr_tnl_from_skb()
only initializes the first 10 bytes (sizeof(struct virtio_net_hdr)),
leaving bytes 10..23 (num_buffers and the hash/tunnel fields) as stack
garbage.
An unprivileged user can set the vnet header size to 24 with
TUNSETVNETHDRSZ, so __tun_vnet_hdr_put() copies all 24 bytes of the
partially-initialized struct to userspace, leaking 14 bytes of kernel
stack on every read of a non-tunnel packet.
Fix it the same way tun_get_user() already does by zeroing the whole
header right after declaration.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: avoid NULL deref of conn->lnk in smc_msg_event tracepoint
The smc_msg_event tracepoint class, shared by smc_tx_sendmsg and
smc_rx_recvmsg, unconditionally dereferences smc->conn.lnk:
__string(name, smc->conn.lnk->ibname)
conn->lnk is only set for SMC-R; for SMC-D it is NULL. Other code on
these paths already handles this (e.g. !conn->lnk in
SMC_STAT_RMB_TX_SIZE_SMALL()). With the tracepoint enabled, the first
sendmsg()/recvmsg() on an SMC-D socket crashes:
Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [...]
RIP: 0010:strlen+0x1e/0xa0
Call Trace:

The faulting address 0x3e0 is offsetof(struct smc_link, ibname),
confirming the NULL ->lnk deref. Enabling the tracepoint requires
root, but the trigger itself is unprivileged: socket(AF_SMC, ...) has
no capability check, and SMC-D negotiation needs no admin step on
s390 or on x86 with the loopback ISM device loaded.
Log an empty device name for SMC-D instead of dereferencing NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_log: validate MAC header was set before dumping it
The fallback path of dump_mac_header() guards the MAC header access
only with "skb->mac_header != skb->network_header", without checking
skb_mac_header_was_set(). When the MAC header is unset, mac_header is
0xffff, so the test passes and skb_mac_header(skb) returns
skb->head + 0xffff, ~64 KiB past the buffer; the loop then reads
dev->hard_header_len bytes out of bounds into the kernel log.
This is reachable via the netdev logger: nf_log_unknown_packet() calls
dump_mac_header() unconditionally, and an skb sent through AF_PACKET
with PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS reaches the egress hook with mac_header still
unset (__dev_queue_xmit(), which would reset it, is bypassed).
Add the skb_mac_header_was_set() check the ARPHRD_ETHER path already
uses, and replace the open-coded MAC header length test with
skb_mac_header_len(). Only skbs with an unset MAC header are affected;
valid ones are dumped as before.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: stream: fully roll back denied add-stream state
When ADD_OUT_STREAMS is denied, SCTP only shrinks the queued chunks and
then lowers outcnt. That leaves removed stream metadata behind, so a
later re-add can reuse a stale ext and hit a null-pointer dereference in
the scheduler get path.
Fix the rollback by tearing down the removed stream state the same way
other stream resizes do. Unschedule the current scheduler state, drop
the removed stream ext state with sctp_stream_outq_migrate(), and then
reschedule the remaining streams.
This keeps scheduler-private RR/FC/PRIO lists consistent while fully
rolling back denied outgoing stream additions.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipc/shm: serialize orphan cleanup with shm_nattch updates
shm_destroy_orphaned() walks the shm idr under shm_ids(ns).rwsem, but that
does not serialize all fields tested by shm_may_destroy(). In particular,
shm_nattch is updated while holding shm_perm.lock, and attach paths can do
that without holding the rwsem.
Do not decide that an orphaned segment is unused before taking the object
lock. Move the shm_may_destroy() check under shm_perm.lock, matching the
other destroy paths, and unlock the segment when it no longer qualifies
for removal.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: tp_meter: avoid use of uninit sender vars
batadv_tp_recv_ack() and batadv_tp_stop() are only valid for tp_vars in the
BATADV_TP_SENDER role. When called with a BATADV_TP_RECEIVER role, it
proceeds to read sender-only members that were never initialized, leading
to undefined behavior.
This can be triggered when a node that is currently acting as a receiver in
an ongoing tp_meter session receives a malicious ACK packet.
Guard against this by checking tp_vars->role immediately after the
lookup and bailing out if it is not BATADV_TP_SENDER, before any of
those members are accessed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/poll: fix signed comparison in io_poll_get_ownership()
io_poll_get_ownership() uses a signed comparison to check whether
poll_refs has reached the threshold for the slowpath:
if (unlikely(atomic_read(&req->poll_refs) >= IO_POLL_REF_BIAS))
atomic_read() returns int (signed). When IO_POLL_CANCEL_FLAG
(BIT(31)) is set in poll_refs, the value becomes negative in
signed arithmetic, so the >= 128 comparison always evaluates to
false and the slowpath is never taken.
Fix this by casting the atomic_read() result to unsigned int
before the comparison, so that the cancel flag is treated as a
large positive value and correctly triggers the slowpath.
