Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: acomp - fix wrong pointer stored by acomp_save_req()
acomp_save_req() stores &req->chain in req->base.data. When
acomp_reqchain_done() is invoked on asynchronous completion, it receives
&req->chain as the data argument but casts it directly to struct
acomp_req. Since data points to the chain member, all subsequent field
accesses are at a wrong offset, resulting in memory corruption.
The issue occurs when an asynchronous hardware implementation, such as
the QAT driver, completes a request that uses the DMA virtual address
interface (e.g. acomp_request_set_src_dma()). This combination causes
crypto_acomp_compress() to enter the acomp_do_req_chain() path, which
sets acomp_reqchain_done() as the completion callback via
acomp_save_req().
With KASAN enabled, this manifests as a general protection fault in
acomp_reqchain_done():
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xe000040000000000
KASAN: probably user-memory-access in range [0x0000400000000000-0x0000400000000007]
RIP: 0010:acomp_reqchain_done+0x15b/0x4e0

</IRQ>
Fix this by storing the request itself in req->base.data instead of
&req->chain, so that acomp_reqchain_done() receives the correct pointer.
Simplify acomp_restore_req() accordingly to access req->chain directly.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: SVM: Inject #UD for INVLPGA if EFER.SVME=0
INVLPGA should cause a #UD when EFER.SVME is not set. Add a check to
properly inject #UD when EFER.SVME=0.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: fix resource leaks on device setup failure
Make sure to call controller cleanup() if spi_setup() fails while
registering a device to avoid leaking any resources allocated by
setup().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/mana_ib: Disable RX steering on RSS QP destroy
When an RSS QP is destroyed (e.g. DPDK exit), mana_ib_destroy_qp_rss()
destroys the RX WQ objects but does not disable vPort RX steering in
firmware. This leaves stale steering configuration that still points to
the destroyed RX objects.
If traffic continues to arrive (e.g. peer VM is still transmitting) and
the VF interface is subsequently brought up (mana_open), the firmware
may deliver completions using stale CQ IDs from the old RX objects.
These CQ IDs can be reused by the ethernet driver for new TX CQs,
causing RX completions to land on TX CQs:
WARNING: mana_poll_tx_cq+0x1b8/0x220 [mana] (is_sq == false)
WARNING: mana_gd_process_eq_events+0x209/0x290 (cq_table lookup fails)
Fix this by disabling vPort RX steering before destroying RX WQ objects.
Note that mana_fence_rqs() cannot be used here because the fence
completion is delivered on the CQ, which is polled by user-mode (e.g.
DPDK) and not visible to the kernel driver.
Refactor the disable logic into a shared mana_disable_vport_rx() in
mana_en, exported for use by mana_ib, replacing the duplicate code.
The ethernet driver's mana_dealloc_queues() is also updated to call
this common function.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rxrpc: Fix rxkad crypto unalignment handling
Fix handling of a packet with a misaligned crypto length. Also handle
non-ENOMEM errors from decryption by aborting. Further, remove the
WARN_ON_ONCE() so that it can't be remotely triggered (a trace line can
still be emitted).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mwifiex: fix use-after-free in mwifiex_adapter_cleanup()
The mwifiex_adapter_cleanup() function uses timer_delete()
(non-synchronous) for the wakeup_timer before the adapter structure is
freed. This is incorrect because timer_delete() does not wait for any
running timer callback to complete.
If the wakeup_timer callback (wakeup_timer_fn) is executing when
mwifiex_adapter_cleanup() is called, the callback will continue to
access adapter fields (adapter->hw_status, adapter->if_ops.card_reset,
etc.) which may be freed by mwifiex_free_adapter() called later in the
mwifiex_remove_card() path.
Use timer_delete_sync() instead to ensure any running timer callback has
completed before returning.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid5: validate payload size before accessing journal metadata
r5c_recovery_analyze_meta_block() and
r5l_recovery_verify_data_checksum_for_mb() iterate over payloads in a
journal metadata block using on-disk payload size fields without
validating them against the remaining space in the metadata block.
A corrupted journal contains payload sizes extending beyond the PAGE_SIZE
boundary can cause out-of-bounds reads when accessing payload fields or
computing offsets.
Add bounds validation for each payload type to ensure the full payload
fits within meta_size before processing.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: nSVM: Avoid clearing VMCB_LBR in vmcb12
svm_copy_lbrs() always marks VMCB_LBR dirty in the destination VMCB.
However, nested_svm_vmexit() uses it to copy LBRs to vmcb12, and
clearing clean bits in vmcb12 is not architecturally defined.
Move vmcb_mark_dirty() to callers and drop it for vmcb12.
This also facilitates incoming refactoring that does not pass the entire
VMCB to svm_copy_lbrs().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ntfs3: add buffer boundary checks to run_unpack()
run_unpack() checks `run_buf < run_last` at the top of the while loop
but then reads size_size and offset_size bytes via run_unpack_s64()
without verifying they fit within the remaining buffer. A crafted NTFS
image with truncated run data in an MFT attribute triggers an OOB heap
read of up to 15 bytes when the filesystem is mounted.
Add boundary checks before each run_unpack_s64() call to ensure the
declared field size does not exceed the remaining buffer.
Found by fuzzing with a source-patched harness (LibAFL + QEMU).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (powerz) Fix missing usb_kill_urb() on signal interrupt
wait_for_completion_interruptible_timeout() returns -ERESTARTSYS when
interrupted. This needs to abort the URB and return an error. No data
has been received from the device so any reads from the transfer
buffer are invalid.
The original code tests !ret, which only catches the timeout case (0).
On signal delivery (-ERESTARTSYS), !ret is false so the function skips
usb_kill_urb() and falls through to read from the unfilled transfer
buffer.
Fix by capturing the return value into a long (matching the function
return type) and handling signal (negative) and timeout (zero) cases
with separate checks that both call usb_kill_urb() before returning.
