Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 4.19.228 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: isp116x: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()
When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it,
otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just
call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic
at once.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: hda: Fix Oops by 9.1 surround channel names
get_line_out_pfx() may trigger an Oops by overflowing the static array
with more than 8 channels. This was reported for MacBookPro 12,1 with
Cirrus codec.
As a workaround, extend for the 9.1 channels and also fix the
potential Oops by unifying the code paths accessing the same array
with the proper size check.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
shmem: use ramfs_kill_sb() for kill_sb method of ramfs-based tmpfs
As the ramfs-based tmpfs uses ramfs_init_fs_context() for the
init_fs_context method, which allocates fc->s_fs_info, use ramfs_kill_sb()
to free it and avoid a memory leak.

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.
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffff89510294f1a8
