In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: initialize more fields in sctp_v6_from_sk()
syzbot found that sin6_scope_id was not properly initialized,
leading to undefined behavior.
Clear sin6_scope_id and sin6_flowinfo.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: hid-ntrig: fix unable to handle page fault in ntrig_report_version()
in ntrig_report_version(), hdev parameter passed from hid_probe().
sending descriptor to /dev/uhid can make hdev->dev.parent->parent to null
if hdev->dev.parent->parent is null, usb_dev has
invalid address(0xffffffffffffff58) that hid_to_usb_dev(hdev) returned
when usb_rcvctrlpipe() use usb_dev,it trigger
page fault error for address(0xffffffffffffff58)
add null check logic to ntrig_report_version()
before calling hid_to_usb_dev()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: L2CAP: fix "bad unlock balance" in l2cap_disconnect_rsp
conn->chan_lock isn't acquired before l2cap_get_chan_by_scid,
if l2cap_get_chan_by_scid returns NULL, then 'bad unlock balance'
is triggered.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: fix memory leak of se_io context in nfc_genl_se_io
The callback context for sending/receiving APDUs to/from the selected
secure element is allocated inside nfc_genl_se_io and supposed to be
eventually freed in se_io_cb callback function. However, there are several
error paths where the bwi_timer is not charged to call se_io_cb later, and
the cb_context is leaked.
The patch proposes to free the cb_context explicitly on those error paths.
At the moment we can't simply check 'dev->ops->se_io()' return value as it
may be negative in both cases: when the timer was charged and was not.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid10: fix leak of 'r10bio->remaining' for recovery
raid10_sync_request() will add 'r10bio->remaining' for both rdev and
replacement rdev. However, if the read io fails, recovery_request_write()
returns without issuing the write io, in this case, end_sync_request()
is only called once and 'remaining' is leaked, cause an io hang.
Fix the problem by decreasing 'remaining' according to if 'bio' and
'repl_bio' is valid.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
blk-mq: fix NULL dereference on q->elevator in blk_mq_elv_switch_none
After grabbing q->sysfs_lock, q->elevator may become NULL because of
elevator switch.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udf: Do not update file length for failed writes to inline files
When write to inline file fails (or happens only partly), we still
updated length of inline data as if the whole write succeeded. Fix the
update of length of inline data to happen only if the write succeeds.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: check send stream number after wait_for_sndbuf
This patch fixes a corner case where the asoc out stream count may change
after wait_for_sndbuf.
When the main thread in the client starts a connection, if its out stream
count is set to N while the in stream count in the server is set to N - 2,
another thread in the client keeps sending the msgs with stream number
N - 1, and waits for sndbuf before processing INIT_ACK.
However, after processing INIT_ACK, the out stream count in the client is
shrunk to N - 2, the same to the in stream count in the server. The crash
occurs when the thread waiting for sndbuf is awake and sends the msg in a
non-existing stream(N - 1), the call trace is as below:
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000038-0x000000000000003f]

The fix is to add an unlikely check for the send stream number after the
thread wakes up from the wait_for_sndbuf.
