Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: verisilicon: Avoid G2 bus error while decoding H.264 and HEVC
For the i.MX8MQ platform, there is a hardware limitation: the g1 VPU and
g2 VPU cannot decode simultaneously; otherwise, it will cause below bus
error and produce corrupted pictures, even potentially lead to system hang.
[ 110.527986] hantro-vpu 38310000.video-codec: frame decode timed out.
[ 110.583517] hantro-vpu 38310000.video-codec: bus error detected.
Therefore, it is necessary to ensure that g1 and g2 operate alternately.
This allows for successful multi-instance decoding of H.264 and HEVC.
To achieve this, g1 and g2 share the same v4l2_m2m_dev, and then the
v4l2_m2m_dev can handle the scheduling.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: do not ASSERT() when the fs flips RO inside btrfs_repair_io_failure()
[BUG]
There is a bug report that when btrfs hits ENOSPC error in a critical
path, btrfs flips RO (this part is expected, although the ENOSPC bug
still needs to be addressed).
The problem is after the RO flip, if there is a read repair pending, we
can hit the ASSERT() inside btrfs_repair_io_failure() like the following:

[CAUSE]
The cause of -ENOSPC error during the test case btrfs/124 is still
unknown, although it's known that we still have cases where metadata can
be over-committed but can not be fulfilled correctly, thus if we hit
such ENOSPC error inside a critical path, we have no choice but abort
the current transaction.
This will mark the fs read-only.
The problem is inside the btrfs_repair_io_failure() path that we require
the fs not to be mount read-only. This is normally fine, but if we are
doing a read-repair meanwhile the fs flips RO due to a critical error,
we can enter btrfs_repair_io_failure() with super block set to
read-only, thus triggering the above crash.
[FIX]
Just replace the ASSERT() with a proper return if the fs is already
read-only.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/panel: Fix a possible null-pointer dereference in jdi_panel_dsi_remove()
In jdi_panel_dsi_remove(), jdi is explicitly checked, indicating that it
may be NULL:
if (!jdi)
mipi_dsi_detach(dsi);
However, when jdi is NULL, the function does not return and continues by
calling jdi_panel_disable():
err = jdi_panel_disable(&jdi->base);
Inside jdi_panel_disable(), jdi is dereferenced unconditionally, which can
lead to a NULL-pointer dereference:
struct jdi_panel *jdi = to_panel_jdi(panel);
backlight_disable(jdi->backlight);
To prevent such a potential NULL-pointer dereference, return early from
jdi_panel_dsi_remove() when jdi is NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: chips-media: wave5: Fix PM runtime usage count underflow
Replace pm_runtime_put_sync() with pm_runtime_dont_use_autosuspend() in
the remove path to properly pair with pm_runtime_use_autosuspend() from
probe. This allows pm_runtime_disable() to handle reference count cleanup
correctly regardless of current suspend state.
The driver calls pm_runtime_put_sync() unconditionally in remove, but the
device may already be suspended due to autosuspend configured in probe.
When autosuspend has already suspended the device, the usage count is 0,
and pm_runtime_put_sync() decrements it to -1.
This causes the following warning on module unload:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/v3d: Set DMA segment size to avoid debug warnings
When using V3D rendering with CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG enabled, the
kernel occasionally reports a segment size mismatch. This is because
'max_seg_size' is not set. The kernel defaults to 64K. setting
'max_seg_size' to the maximum will prevent 'debug_dma_map_sg()'
from complaining about the over-mapping of the V3D segment length.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/page_alloc: clear page->private in free_pages_prepare()
Several subsystems (slub, shmem, ttm, etc.) use page->private but don't
clear it before freeing pages. When these pages are later allocated as
high-order pages and split via split_page(), tail pages retain stale
page->private values.
This causes a use-after-free in the swap subsystem. The swap code uses
page->private to track swap count continuations, assuming freshly
allocated pages have page->private == 0. When stale values are present,
swap_count_continued() incorrectly assumes the continuation list is valid
and iterates over uninitialized page->lru containing LIST_POISON values,
causing a crash:
KASAN: maybe wild-memory-access in range [0xdead000000000100-0xdead000000000107]
RIP: 0010:__do_sys_swapoff+0x1151/0x1860
Fix this by clearing page->private in free_pages_prepare(), ensuring all
freed pages have clean state regardless of previous use.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
libceph: define and enforce CEPH_MAX_KEY_LEN
When decoding the key, verify that the key material would fit into
a fixed-size buffer in process_auth_done() and generally has a sane
length.
The new CEPH_MAX_KEY_LEN check replaces the existing check for a key
with no key material which is a) not universal since CEPH_CRYPTO_NONE
has to be excluded and b) doesn't provide much value since a smaller
than needed key is just as invalid as no key -- this has to be handled
elsewhere anyway.

drm/amd/display: Fix mismatched unlock for DMUB HW lock in HWSS fast path
[Why]
The evaluation for whether we need to use the DMUB HW lock isn't the
same as whether we need to unlock which results in a hang when the
fast path is used for ASIC without FAMS support.
[How]
Store a flag that indicates whether we should use the lock and use
that same flag to specify whether unlocking is needed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: crypto: Use the correct destructor kfunc type
With CONFIG_CFI enabled, the kernel strictly enforces that indirect
function calls use a function pointer type that matches the target
function. I ran into the following type mismatch when running BPF
self-tests:
CFI failure at bpf_obj_free_fields+0x190/0x238 (target:
bpf_crypto_ctx_release+0x0/0x94; expected type: 0xa488ebfc)
Internal error: Oops - CFI: 00000000f2008228 [#1] SMP
...
As bpf_crypto_ctx_release() is also used in BPF programs and using
a void pointer as the argument would make the verifier unhappy, add
a simple stub function with the correct type and register it as the
destructor kfunc instead.
