Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: roccat: fix use-after-free in roccat_report_event
roccat_report_event() iterates over the device->readers list without
holding the readers_lock. This allows a concurrent roccat_release() to
remove and free a reader while it's still being accessed, leading to a
use-after-free.
Protect the readers list traversal with the readers_lock mutex.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/smb/client: fix out-of-bounds read in cifs_sanitize_prepath
When cifs_sanitize_prepath is called with an empty string or a string
containing only delimiters (e.g., "/"), the current logic attempts to
check *(cursor2 - 1) before cursor2 has advanced. This results in an
out-of-bounds read.
This patch adds an early exit check after stripping prepended
delimiters. If no path content remains, the function returns NULL.
The bug was identified via manual audit and verified using a
standalone test case compiled with AddressSanitizer, which
triggered a SEGV on affected inputs.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mshv: Fix infinite fault loop on permission-denied GPA intercepts
Prevent infinite fault loops when guests access memory regions without
proper permissions. Currently, mshv_handle_gpa_intercept() attempts to
remap pages for all faults on movable memory regions, regardless of
whether the access type is permitted. When a guest writes to a read-only
region, the remap succeeds but the region remains read-only, causing
immediate re-fault and spinning the vCPU indefinitely.
Validate intercept access type against region permissions before
attempting remaps. Reject writes to non-writable regions and executes to
non-executable regions early, returning false to let the VMM handle the
intercept appropriately.
This also closes a potential DoS vector where malicious guests could
intentionally trigger these fault loops to consume host resources.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: hv: Fix double ida_free in hv_pci_probe error path
If hv_pci_probe() fails after storing the domain number in
hbus->bridge->domain_nr, there is a call to free this domain_nr via
pci_bus_release_emul_domain_nr(), however, during cleanup, the bridge
release callback pci_release_host_bridge_dev() also frees the domain_nr
causing ida_free to be called on same ID twice and triggering following
warning:
ida_free called for id=28971 which is not allocated.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfc: s3fwrn5: allocate rx skb before consuming bytes
s3fwrn82_uart_read() reports the number of accepted bytes to the serdev
core. The current code consumes bytes into recv_skb and may already
deliver a complete frame before allocating a fresh receive buffer.
If that alloc_skb() fails, the callback returns 0 even though it has
already consumed bytes, and it leaves recv_skb as NULL for the next
receive callback. That breaks the receive_buf() accounting contract and
can also lead to a NULL dereference on the next skb_put_u8().
Allocate the receive skb lazily before consuming the next byte instead.
If allocation fails, return the number of bytes already accepted.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: icmp: fix null-ptr-deref in icmp_build_probe()
ipv6_stub->ipv6_dev_find() may return ERR_PTR(-EAFNOSUPPORT) when the
IPv6 stack is not active (CONFIG_IPV6=m and not loaded), and passing
this error pointer to dev_hold() will cause a kernel crash with
null-ptr-deref.
Instead, silently discard the request. RFC 8335 does not appear to
define a specific response for the case where an IPv6 interface
identifier is syntactically valid but the implementation cannot perform
the lookup at runtime, and silently dropping the request may safer than
misreporting "No Such Interface".

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bridge: guard local VLAN-0 FDB helpers against NULL vlan group
When CONFIG_BRIDGE_VLAN_FILTERING is not set, br_vlan_group() and
nbp_vlan_group() return NULL (br_private.h stub definitions). The
BR_BOOLOPT_FDB_LOCAL_VLAN_0 toggle code is compiled unconditionally and
reaches br_fdb_delete_locals_per_vlan_port() and
br_fdb_insert_locals_per_vlan_port(), where the NULL vlan group pointer
is dereferenced via list_for_each_entry(v, &vg->vlan_list, vlist).
The observed crash is in the delete path, triggered when creating a
bridge with IFLA_BR_MULTI_BOOLOPT containing BR_BOOLOPT_FDB_LOCAL_VLAN_0
via RTM_NEWLINK. The insert helper has the same bug pattern.
Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000056: 0000 [#1] KASAN NOPTI

Add NULL checks for the vlan group pointer in both helpers, returning

pattern used by other bridge FDB functions such as br_fdb_add() and
br_fdb_delete().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: ioam: fix potential NULL dereferences in __ioam6_fill_trace_data()
We need to check __in6_dev_get() for possible NULL value, as
suggested by Yiming Qian.
Also add skb_dst_dev_rcu() instead of skb_dst_dev(),
and two missing READ_ONCE().
Note that @dev can't be NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: airoha: Fix memory leak in airoha_qdma_rx_process()
If an error occurs on the subsequents buffers belonging to the
non-linear part of the skb (e.g. due to an error in the payload length
reported by the NIC or if we consumed all the available fragments for
the skb), the page_pool fragment will not be linked to the skb so it will
not return to the pool in the airoha_qdma_rx_process() error path. Fix the
memory leak partially reverting commit 'd6d2b0e1538d ("net: airoha: Fix
page recycling in airoha_qdma_rx_process()")' and always running
page_pool_put_full_page routine in the airoha_qdma_rx_process() error
path.
