In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPICA: Fix error code path in acpi_ds_call_control_method()
A use-after-free in acpi_ps_parse_aml() after a failing invocaion of
acpi_ds_call_control_method() is reported by KASAN [1] and code
inspection reveals that next_walk_state pushed to the thread by
acpi_ds_create_walk_state() is freed on errors, but it is not popped
from the thread beforehand. Thus acpi_ds_get_current_walk_state()
called by acpi_ps_parse_aml() subsequently returns it as the new
walk state which is incorrect.
To address this, make acpi_ds_call_control_method() call
acpi_ds_pop_walk_state() to pop next_walk_state from the thread before
returning an error.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: fcoe: Fix transport not deattached when fcoe_if_init() fails
fcoe_init() calls fcoe_transport_attach(&fcoe_sw_transport), but when
fcoe_if_init() fails, &fcoe_sw_transport is not detached and leaves freed
&fcoe_sw_transport on fcoe_transports list. This causes panic when
reinserting module.
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffbfff82e2213
RIP: 0010:fcoe_transport_attach+0xe1/0x230 [libfcoe]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
parisc: led: Fix potential null-ptr-deref in start_task()
start_task() calls create_singlethread_workqueue() and not checked the
ret value, which may return NULL. And a null-ptr-deref may happen:
start_task()
create_singlethread_workqueue() # failed, led_wq is NULL
queue_delayed_work()
queue_delayed_work_on()
__queue_delayed_work() # warning here, but continue
__queue_work() # access wq->flags, null-ptr-deref
Check the ret value and return -ENOMEM if it is NULL.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers/md/md-bitmap: check the return value of md_bitmap_get_counter()
Check the return value of md_bitmap_get_counter() in case it returns
NULL pointer, which will result in a null pointer dereference.
v2: update the check to include other dereference
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: dwc3: 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.
Note, the root dentry for the debugfs directory for the device needs to
be saved so we don't have to keep looking it up, which required a bit
more refactoring to properly create and remove it when needed.
