In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: clear initialized flag for deinit-ed srng lists
In a number of cases we see kernel panics on resume due
to ath11k kernel page fault, which happens under the
following circumstances:
1) First ath11k_hal_dump_srng_stats() call
Last interrupt received for each group:
ath11k_pci 0000:01:00.0: group_id 0 22511ms before
ath11k_pci 0000:01:00.0: group_id 1 14440788ms before
[..]

ath11k_pci 0000:01:00.0: Service connect timeout

ath11k_pci 0000:01:00.0: firmware crashed: MHI_CB_EE_RDDM
ath11k_pci 0000:01:00.0: already resetting count 2
ath11k_pci 0000:01:00.0: failed to wait wlan mode request (mode 4): -110
ath11k_pci 0000:01:00.0: qmi failed to send wlan mode off: -110
ath11k_pci 0000:01:00.0: failed to reconfigure driver on crash recovery
[..]
2) At this point reconfiguration fails (we have 2 resets) and
ath11k_core_reconfigure_on_crash() calls ath11k_hal_srng_deinit()
which destroys srng lists. However, it does not reset per-list
->initialized flag.
3) Second ath11k_hal_dump_srng_stats() call sees stale ->initialized
flag and attempts to dump srng stats:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iwlwifi: Add missing check for alloc_ordered_workqueue
Add check for the return value of alloc_ordered_workqueue since it may
return NULL pointer.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtl818x: Kill URBs before clearing tx status queue
In rtl8187_stop() move the call of usb_kill_anchored_urbs() before clearing
b_tx_status.queue. This change prevents callbacks from using already freed
skb due to anchor was not killed before freeing such skb.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: fix possible infinite loop in fib6_info_uses_dev()
fib6_info_uses_dev() seems to rely on RCU without an explicit
protection.
Like the prior fix in rt6_nlmsg_size(),
we need to make sure fib6_del_route() or fib6_add_rt2node()
have not removed the anchor from the list, or we risk an infinite loop.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: prevent infinite loop in rt6_nlmsg_size()
While testing prior patch, I was able to trigger
an infinite loop in rt6_nlmsg_size() in the following place:
list_for_each_entry_rcu(sibling, &f6i->fib6_siblings,
fib6_siblings) {
rt6_nh_nlmsg_size(sibling->fib6_nh, &nexthop_len);
}
This is because fib6_del_route() and fib6_add_rt2node()
uses list_del_rcu(), which can confuse rcu readers,
because they might no longer see the head of the list.
Restart the loop if f6i->fib6_nsiblings is zero.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: fix KMSAN uninit-value in extent_info usage
KMSAN reported a use of uninitialized value in `__is_extent_mergeable()`
and `__is_back_mergeable()` via the read extent tree path.
The root cause is that `get_read_extent_info()` only initializes three
fields (`fofs`, `blk`, `len`) of `struct extent_info`, leaving the
remaining fields uninitialized. This leads to undefined behavior
when those fields are accessed later, especially during
extent merging.
Fix it by zero-initializing the `extent_info` struct before population.

ipv6: reject malicious packets in ipv6_gso_segment()
syzbot was able to craft a packet with very long IPv6 extension headers
leading to an overflow of skb->transport_header.
This 16bit field has a limited range.
Add skb_reset_transport_header_careful() helper and use it
from ipv6_gso_segment()
