Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 2.16.12 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: isp116x: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()
When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it,
otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just
call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic
at once.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: hda: Fix Oops by 9.1 surround channel names
get_line_out_pfx() may trigger an Oops by overflowing the static array
with more than 8 channels. This was reported for MacBookPro 12,1 with
Cirrus codec.
As a workaround, extend for the 9.1 channels and also fix the
potential Oops by unifying the code paths accessing the same array
with the proper size check.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
shmem: use ramfs_kill_sb() for kill_sb method of ramfs-based tmpfs
As the ramfs-based tmpfs uses ramfs_init_fs_context() for the
init_fs_context method, which allocates fc->s_fs_info, use ramfs_kill_sb()
to free it and avoid a memory leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPICA: Add AML_NO_OPERAND_RESOLVE flag to Timer
ACPICA commit 90310989a0790032f5a0140741ff09b545af4bc5
According to the ACPI specification 19.6.134, no argument is required to be passed for ASL Timer instruction. For taking care of no argument, AML_NO_OPERAND_RESOLVE flag is added to ASL Timer instruction opcode.
When ASL timer instruction interpreted by ACPI interpreter, getting error. After adding AML_NO_OPERAND_RESOLVE flag to ASL Timer instruction opcode, issue is not observed.
