Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/core: always drop device refcount in ib_del_sub_device_and_put()
Since nldev_deldev() (introduced by commit 060c642b2ab8 ("RDMA/nldev: Add
support to add/delete a sub IB device through netlink") grabs a reference
using ib_device_get_by_index() before calling ib_del_sub_device_and_put(),
we need to drop that reference before returning -EOPNOTSUPP error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conncount: fix leaked ct in error paths
There are some situations where ct might be leaked as error paths are
skipping the refcounted check and return immediately. In order to solve
it make sure that the check is always called.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KEYS: trusted: Fix a memory leak in tpm2_load_cmd
'tpm2_load_cmd' allocates a tempoary blob indirectly via 'tpm2_key_decode'
but it is not freed in the failure paths. Address this by wrapping the blob
into with a cleanup helper.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/handshake: restore destructor on submit failure
handshake_req_submit() replaces sk->sk_destruct but never restores it when
submission fails before the request is hashed. handshake_sk_destruct() then
returns early and the original destructor never runs, leaking the socket.
Restore sk_destruct on the error path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/poll: correctly handle io_poll_add() return value on update
When the core of io_uring was updated to handle completions
consistently and with fixed return codes, the POLL_REMOVE opcode
with updates got slightly broken. If a POLL_ADD is pending and
then POLL_REMOVE is used to update the events of that request, if that
update causes the POLL_ADD to now trigger, then that completion is lost
and a CQE is never posted.
Additionally, ensure that if an update does cause an existing POLL_ADD
to complete, that the completion value isn't always overwritten with
-ECANCELED. For that case, whatever io_poll_add() set the value to
should just be retained.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: Fix refcount leak when invalid session is found on session lookup
When a session is found but its state is not SMB2_SESSION_VALID, It
indicates that no valid session was found, but it is missing to decrement
the reference count acquired by the session lookup, which results in
a reference count leak. This patch fixes the issue by explicitly calling
ksmbd_user_session_put to release the reference to the session.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: Fix memory and information leak in smb3_reconfigure()
In smb3_reconfigure(), if smb3_sync_session_ctx_passwords() fails, the
function returns immediately without freeing and erasing the newly
allocated new_password and new_password2. This causes both a memory leak
and a potential information leak.
Fix this by calling kfree_sensitive() on both password buffers before
returning in this error case.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: phy: isp1301: fix non-OF device reference imbalance
A recent change fixing a device reference leak in a UDC driver
introduced a potential use-after-free in the non-OF case as the
isp1301_get_client() helper only increases the reference count for the
returned I2C device in the OF case.
Increment the reference count also for non-OF so that the caller can
decrement it unconditionally.
Note that this is inherently racy just as using the returned I2C device
is since nothing is preventing the PHY driver from being unbound while
in use.
