In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: xilinx: axienet: Enqueue Tx packets in dql before dmaengine starts
Enqueue packets in dql after dma engine starts causes race condition.
Tx transfer starts once dma engine is started and may execute dql dequeue
in completion before it gets queued. It results in following kernel crash
while running iperf stress test:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: enetc: allocate vf_state during PF probes
In the previous implementation, vf_state is allocated memory only when VF
is enabled. However, net_device_ops::ndo_set_vf_mac() may be called before
VF is enabled to configure the MAC address of VF. If this is the case,
enetc_pf_set_vf_mac() will access vf_state, resulting in access to a null
pointer. The simplified error log is as follows.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: fix a crash if blk_alloc_disk fails
If blk_alloc_disk fails, the variable md->disk is set to an error value.
cleanup_mapped_device will see that md->disk is non-NULL and it will
attempt to access it, causing a crash on this statement
"md->disk->private_data = NULL;".

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm cache: fix potential out-of-bounds access on the first resume
Out-of-bounds access occurs if the fast device is expanded unexpectedly
before the first-time resume of the cache table. This happens because
expanding the fast device requires reloading the cache table for
cache_create to allocate new in-core data structures that fit the new
size, and the check in cache_preresume is not performed during the
first resume, leading to the issue.
Reproduce steps:
1. prepare component devices:
dmsetup create cmeta --table "0 8192 linear /dev/sdc 0"
dmsetup create cdata --table "0 65536 linear /dev/sdc 8192"
dmsetup create corig --table "0 524288 linear /dev/sdc 262144"
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/cmeta bs=4k count=1 oflag=direct
2. load a cache table of 512 cache blocks, and deliberately expand the
fast device before resuming the cache, making the in-core data
structures inadequate.
dmsetup create cache --notable
dmsetup reload cache --table "0 524288 cache /dev/mapper/cmeta \
/dev/mapper/cdata /dev/mapper/corig 128 2 metadata2 writethrough smq 0"
dmsetup reload cdata --table "0 131072 linear /dev/sdc 8192"
dmsetup resume cdata
dmsetup resume cache
3. suspend the cache to write out the in-core dirty bitset and hint
array, leading to out-of-bounds access to the dirty bitset at offset
0x40:
dmsetup suspend cache

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm cache: fix out-of-bounds access to the dirty bitset when resizing
dm-cache checks the dirty bits of the cache blocks to be dropped when
shrinking the fast device, but an index bug in bitset iteration causes
out-of-bounds access.
Reproduce steps:
1. create a cache device of 1024 cache blocks (128 bytes dirty bitset)
dmsetup create cmeta --table "0 8192 linear /dev/sdc 0"
dmsetup create cdata --table "0 131072 linear /dev/sdc 8192"
dmsetup create corig --table "0 524288 linear /dev/sdc 262144"
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/mapper/cmeta bs=4k count=1 oflag=direct
dmsetup create cache --table "0 524288 cache /dev/mapper/cmeta \
/dev/mapper/cdata /dev/mapper/corig 128 2 metadata2 writethrough smq 0"
2. shrink the fast device to 512 cache blocks, triggering out-of-bounds
access to the dirty bitset (offset 0x80)
dmsetup suspend cache
dmsetup reload cdata --table "0 65536 linear /dev/sdc 8192"
dmsetup resume cdata
dmsetup resume cache

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm cache: fix flushing uninitialized delayed_work on cache_ctr error
An unexpected WARN_ON from flush_work() may occur when cache creation
fails, caused by destroying the uninitialized delayed_work waker in the
error path of cache_create(). For example, the warning appears on the
superblock checksum error.
Reproduce steps:
dmsetup create cmeta --table "0 8192 linear /dev/sdc 0"
dmsetup create cdata --table "0 65536 linear /dev/sdc 8192"
dmsetup create corig --table "0 524288 linear /dev/sdc 262144"
dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/mapper/cmeta bs=4k count=1 oflag=direct
dmsetup create cache --table "0 524288 cache /dev/mapper/cmeta \

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 84 at kernel/workqueue.c:4178 __flush_work+0x5d4/0x890
Fix by pulling out the cancel_delayed_work_sync() from the constructor's
error path. This patch doesn't affect the use-after-free fix for
concurrent dm_resume and dm_destroy (commit 6a459d8edbdb ("dm cache: Fix
UAF in destroy()")) as cache_dtr is not changed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KEYS: trusted: dcp: fix NULL dereference in AEAD crypto operation
When sealing or unsealing a key blob we currently do not wait for
the AEAD cipher operation to finish and simply return after submitting
the request. If there is some load on the system we can exit before
the cipher operation is done and the buffer we read from/write to
is already removed from the stack. This will e.g. result in NULL
pointer dereference errors in the DCP driver during blob creation.
Fix this by waiting for the AEAD cipher operation to finish before
resuming the seal and unseal calls.
