In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: Fix not cleanup led when bt_init fails
bt_init() calls bt_leds_init() to register led, but if it fails later,
bt_leds_cleanup() is not called to unregister it.
This can cause panic if the argument "bluetooth-power" in text is freed
and then another led_trigger_register() tries to access it:

ieee802154_if_add() allocates wpan_dev as netdev's private data, but not
init the list in struct wpan_dev. cfg802154_netdev_notifier_call() manage
the list when device register/unregister, and may lead to null-ptr-deref.
Use INIT_LIST_HEAD() on it to initialize it correctly.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: amd8111: Fix PCI device reference count leak
for_each_pci_dev() is implemented by pci_get_device(). The comment of
pci_get_device() says that it will increase the reference count for the
returned pci_dev and also decrease the reference count for the input
pci_dev @from if it is not NULL.
If we break for_each_pci_dev() loop with pdev not NULL, we need to call
pci_dev_put() to decrease the reference count. Add the missing
pci_dev_put() after the 'out' label. Since pci_dev_put() can handle NULL
input parameter, there is no problem for the 'Device not found' branch.
For the normal path, add pci_dev_put() in amd_gpio_exit().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpiolib: fix memory leak in gpiochip_setup_dev()
Here is a backtrace report about memory leak detected in
gpiochip_setup_dev():
unreferenced object 0xffff88810b406400 (size 512):
comm "python3", pid 1682, jiffies 4295346908 (age 24.090s)
backtrace:
kmalloc_trace
device_add device_private_init at drivers/base/core.c:3361
(inlined by) device_add at drivers/base/core.c:3411
cdev_device_add
gpiolib_cdev_register
gpiochip_setup_dev
gpiochip_add_data_with_key
gcdev_register() & gcdev_unregister() would call device_add() &
device_del() (no matter CONFIG_GPIO_CDEV is enabled or not) to
register/unregister device.
However, if device_add() succeeds, some resource (like
struct device_private allocated by device_private_init())
is not released by device_del().
Therefore, after device_add() succeeds by gcdev_register(), it
needs to call put_device() to release resource in the error handle
path.
Here we move forward the register of release function, and let it
release every piece of resource by put_device() instead of kfree().
While at it, fix another subtle issue, i.e. when gc->ngpio is equal
to 0, we still call kcalloc() and, in case of further error, kfree()
on the ZERO_PTR pointer, which is not NULL. It's not a bug per se,
but rather waste of the resources and potentially wrong expectation
about contents of the gdev->descs variable.

If the size of the integer (unsigned n) is bigger than 32 in snto32(),
shift exponent will be too large for 32-bit type 'int', resulting in a
shift-out-of-bounds bug.
Fix this by adding a check on the size of the integer (unsigned n) in
snto32(). To add support for n greater than 32 bits, set n to 32, if n
is greater than 32.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: fix array index out of bound error in DCN32 DML
[Why&How]
LinkCapacitySupport array is indexed with the number of voltage states and
not the number of max DPPs. Fix the error by changing the array
declaration to use the correct (larger) array size of total number of
voltage states.

net: mvneta: Prevent out of bounds read in mvneta_config_rss()
The pp->indir[0] value comes from the user. It is passed to:
if (cpu_online(pp->rxq_def))
inside the mvneta_percpu_elect() function. It needs bounds checkeding
to ensure that it is not beyond the end of the cpu bitmap.

memcpy: detected field-spanning write (size 129) of single field "target->sensf_res" at net/nfc/nci/ntf.c:260 (size 18)
This appears to be a legitimate lack of bounds checking in
nci_add_new_protocol(). Add the missing checks.
