In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/mlx5: Fix mlx5_ib_get_hw_stats when used for device
Currently, when mlx5_ib_get_hw_stats() is used for device (port_num = 0),
there is a special handling in order to use the correct counters, but,
port_num is being passed down the stack without any change. Also, some
functions assume that port_num >=1. As a result, the following oops can
occur.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
irqchip/gicv3: Workaround for NVIDIA erratum T241-FABRIC-4
The T241 platform suffers from the T241-FABRIC-4 erratum which causes
unexpected behavior in the GIC when multiple transactions are received
simultaneously from different sources. This hardware issue impacts
NVIDIA server platforms that use more than two T241 chips
interconnected. Each chip has support for 320 {E}SPIs.
This issue occurs when multiple packets from different GICs are
incorrectly interleaved at the target chip. The erratum text below
specifies exactly what can cause multiple transfer packets susceptible
to interleaving and GIC state corruption. GIC state corruption can
lead to a range of problems, including kernel panics, and unexpected
behavior.
>From the erratum text:
"In some cases, inter-socket AXI4 Stream packets with multiple
transfers, may be interleaved by the fabric when presented to ARM
Generic Interrupt Controller. GIC expects all transfers of a packet
to be delivered without any interleaving.
The following GICv3 commands may result in multiple transfer packets
over inter-socket AXI4 Stream interface:
- Register reads from GICD_I* and GICD_N*
- Register writes to 64-bit GICD registers other than GICD_IROUTERn*
- ITS command MOVALL
Multiple commands in GICv4+ utilize multiple transfer packets,
including VMOVP, VMOVI, VMAPP, and 64-bit register accesses."
This issue impacts system configurations with more than 2 sockets,
that require multi-transfer packets to be sent over inter-socket
AXI4 Stream interface between GIC instances on different sockets.
GICv4 cannot be supported. GICv3 SW model can only be supported
with the workaround. Single and Dual socket configurations are not
impacted by this issue and support GICv3 and GICv4."
Writing to the chip alias region of the GICD_In{E} registers except
GICD_ICENABLERn has an equivalent effect as writing to the global
distributor. The SPI interrupt deactivate path is not impacted by
the erratum.
To fix this problem, implement a workaround that ensures read accesses
to the GICD_In{E} registers are directed to the chip that owns the
SPI, and disable GICv4.x features. To simplify code changes, the
gic_configure_irq() function uses the same alias region for both read
and write operations to GICD_ICFGR.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: ufs: core: Fix device management cmd timeout flow
In the UFS error handling flow, the host will send a device management cmd
(NOP OUT) to the device for link recovery. If this cmd times out and
clearing the doorbell fails, ufshcd_wait_for_dev_cmd() will do nothing and
return. hba->dev_cmd.complete struct is not set to NULL.
When this happens, if cmd has been completed by device, then we will call
complete() in __ufshcd_transfer_req_compl(). Because the complete struct is
allocated on the stack, the following crash will occur:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: greybus: audio_helper: remove unused and wrong debugfs usage
In the greybus audio_helper code, the debugfs file for the dapm has the
potential to be removed and memory will be leaked. There is also the
very real potential for this code to remove ALL debugfs entries from the
system, and it seems like this is what will really happen if this code
ever runs. This all is very wrong as the greybus audio driver did not
create this debugfs file, the sound core did and controls the lifespan
of it.
So remove all of the debugfs logic from the audio_helper code as there's
no way it could be correct. If this really is needed, it can come back
with a fixup for the incorrect usage of the debugfs_lookup() call which
is what caused this to be noticed at all.
