In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
regulator: core: fix locking in regulator_resolve_supply() error path
If late enabling of a supply regulator fails in
regulator_resolve_supply(), the code currently triggers a lockdep
warning:
WARNING: drivers/regulator/core.c:2649 at _regulator_put+0x80/0xa0, CPU#6: kworker/u32:4/596
...
Call trace:
_regulator_put+0x80/0xa0 (P)
regulator_resolve_supply+0x7cc/0xbe0
regulator_register_resolve_supply+0x28/0xb8
as the regulator_list_mutex must be held when calling _regulator_put().
To solve this, simply switch to using regulator_put().
While at it, we should also make sure that no concurrent access happens
to our rdev while we clear out the supply pointer. Add appropriate
locking to ensure that.
While the code in question will be removed altogether in a follow-up
commit, I believe it is still beneficial to have this corrected before
removal for future reference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix dc_link NULL handling in HPD init
amdgpu_dm_hpd_init() may see connectors without a valid dc_link.
The code already checks dc_link for the polling decision, but later
unconditionally dereferences it when setting up HPD interrupts.
Assign dc_link early and skip connectors where it is NULL.
Fixes the below:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm_irq.c:940 amdgpu_dm_hpd_init()
error: we previously assumed 'dc_link' could be null (see line 931)
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm_irq.c
923 /*
924 * Analog connectors may be hot-plugged unlike other connector
925 * types that don't support HPD. Only poll analog connectors.
926 */
927 use_polling |=
928 amdgpu_dm_connector->dc_link &&
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The patch adds this NULL check but hopefully it can be removed
929 dc_connector_supports_analog(amdgpu_dm_connector->dc_link->link_id.id);

931 dc_link = amdgpu_dm_connector->dc_link;
dc_link assigned here.

--> 940 if (dc_link->irq_source_hpd != DC_IRQ_SOURCE_INVALID) {
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ If it's NULL then we are trouble because we dereference it here.
941 irq_type = dc_link->irq_source_hpd - DC_IRQ_SOURCE_HPD1;

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: qcom: gfx3d: add parent to parent request map
After commit d228ece36345 ("clk: divider: remove round_rate() in favor
of determine_rate()") determining GFX3D clock rate crashes, because the
passed parent map doesn't provide the expected best_parent_hw clock
(with the roundd_rate path before the offending commit the
best_parent_hw was ignored).
Set the field in parent_req in addition to setting it in the req,
fixing the crash.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: reject userspace cifs.spnego descriptions
cifs.spnego key descriptions contain authority-bearing fields such as
pid, uid, creduid, and upcall_target that cifs.upcall treats as
kernel-originating inputs. However, userspace can also create keys of
this type through request_key(2) or add_key(2), allowing those fields to
be supplied without CIFS origin.
Only accept cifs.spnego descriptions while CIFS is using its private
spnego_cred to request the key.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: media: atomisp: Disallow all private IOCTLs
Disallow all private IOCTLs. These aren't quite as safe as one could
assume of IOCTL handlers; disable them for now. Instead of removing the
code, return in the beginning of the function if cmd is non-zero in order
to keep static checkers happy.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: fix integer overflow on buff_pos
Fixing an integer overflow present in batadv_iv_ogm_send_to_if. The size
check is done using the int type in batadv_iv_ogm_aggr_packet whereas the
buff_pos variable uses the s16 type. This could lead to an out-of-bound
read.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcm: oss: Fix data race at accessing runtime.oss.trigger
Currently the runtime.oss.trigger field may be accessed concurrently
without protection, which may lead to the data race. And, in this
case, it may lead to more severe problem because it's a bit field; as
writing the data, it may overwrite other bit fields as well, which
confuses the operation completely, as spotted by fuzzing.
Fix it by covering runtime.oss.trigger bit fled also with the existing
params_lock mutex in both snd_pcm_oss_get_trigger() and
snd_pcm_oss_poll().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mptcp: pm: ADD_ADDR rtx: always decrease sk refcount
When an ADD_ADDR is retransmitted, the sk is held in sk_reset_timer().
It should then be released in all cases at the end.
Some (unlikely) checks were returning directly instead of calling
sock_put() to decrease the refcount. Jump to a new 'exit' label to call
__sock_put() (which will become sock_put() in the next commit) to fix
this potential leak.
While at it, drop the '!msk' check which cannot happen because it is
never reset, and explicitly mark the remaining one as "unlikely".

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: fix btrfs_ioctl_space_info() slot_count TOCTOU which can lead to info-leak
btrfs_ioctl_space_info() has a TOCTOU race between two passes over the
block group RAID type lists. The first pass counts entries to determine
the allocation size, then the second pass fills the buffer. The
groups_sem rwlock is released between passes, allowing concurrent block
group removal to reduce the entry count.
When the second pass fills fewer entries than the first pass counted,
copy_to_user() copies the full alloc_size bytes including trailing
uninitialized kmalloc bytes to userspace.
Fix by copying only total_spaces entries (the actually-filled count from
the second pass) instead of alloc_size bytes, and switch to kzalloc so
any future copy size mismatch cannot leak heap data.
