Debian: Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jfs: fix array-index-out-of-bounds in dbAdjTree
Currently there is a bound check missing in the dbAdjTree while
accessing the dmt_stree. To add the required check added the bool is_ctl
which is required to determine the size as suggest in the following
commit.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jfs: fix slab-out-of-bounds Read in dtSearch
Currently while searching for current page in the sorted entry table
of the page there is a out of bound access. Added a bound check to fix
the error.

Set return code to -EIO

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: s390: fix setting of fpc register
kvm_arch_vcpu_ioctl_set_fpu() allows to set the floating point control
(fpc) register of a guest cpu. The new value is tested for validity by
temporarily loading it into the fpc register.
This may lead to corruption of the fpc register of the host process:
if an interrupt happens while the value is temporarily loaded into the fpc
register, and within interrupt context floating point or vector registers
are used, the current fp/vx registers are saved with save_fpu_regs()
assuming they belong to user space and will be loaded into fp/vx registers
when returning to user space.
test_fp_ctl() restores the original user space / host process fpc register
value, however it will be discarded, when returning to user space.
In result the host process will incorrectly continue to run with the value
that was supposed to be used for a guest cpu.
Fix this by simply removing the test. There is another test right before
the SIE context is entered which will handles invalid values.
This results in a change of behaviour: invalid values will now be accepted
instead of that the ioctl fails with -EINVAL. This seems to be acceptable,
given that this interface is most likely not used anymore, and this is in
addition the same behaviour implemented with the memory mapped interface
(replace invalid values with zero) - see sync_regs() in kvm-s390.c.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Fix possible NULL dereference in amdgpu_ras_query_error_status_helper()
Return invalid error code -EINVAL for invalid block id.
Fixes the below:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/amdgpu_ras.c:1183 amdgpu_ras_query_error_status_helper() error: we previously assumed 'info' could be null (see line 1176)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ceph: fix deadlock or deadcode of misusing dget()
The lock order is incorrect between denty and its parent, we should
always make sure that the parent get the lock first.
But since this deadcode is never used and the parent dir will always
be set from the callers, let's just remove it.

The encrypted subject of an email message could be incorrectly and permanently assigned to an arbitrary other email message in Thunderbird's local cache. Consequently, when replying to the contaminated email message, the user might accidentally leak the confidential subject to a third-party. While this update fixes the bug and avoids future message contamination, it does not automatically repair existing contaminations. Users are advised to use the repair folder functionality, which is available from the context menu of email folders, which will erase incorrect subject assignments. This vulnerability affects Thunderbird < 115.8.1.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vt: fix memory overlapping when deleting chars in the buffer
A memory overlapping copy occurs when deleting a long line. This memory
overlapping copy can cause data corruption when scr_memcpyw is optimized
to memcpy because memcpy does not ensure its behavior if the destination
buffer overlaps with the source buffer. The line buffer is not always
broken, because the memcpy utilizes the hardware acceleration, whose
result is not deterministic.
Fix this problem by using replacing the scr_memcpyw with scr_memmovew.

Rack is a modular Ruby web server interface. Carefully crafted content type headers can cause Rack’s media type parser to take much longer than expected, leading to a possible denial of service vulnerability (ReDos 2nd degree polynomial). This vulnerability is patched in 3.0.9.1 and 2.2.8.1.

Rack is a modular Ruby web server interface. Carefully crafted Range headers can cause a server to respond with an unexpectedly large response. Responding with such large responses could lead to a denial of service issue. Vulnerable applications will use the `Rack::File` middleware or the `Rack::Utils.byte_ranges` methods (this includes Rails applications). The vulnerability is fixed in 3.0.9.1 and 2.2.8.1.
