Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: imu: st_lsm6dsx: Set buffer sampling frequency for accelerometer only
The st_lsm6dsx_hwfifo_odr_store() function, which is called when userspace
writes the buffer sampling frequency sysfs attribute, calls
st_lsm6dsx_check_odr(), which accesses the odr_table array at index
`sensor->id`; since this array is only 2 entries long, an access for any
sensor type other than accelerometer or gyroscope is an out-of-bounds
access.
The motivation for being able to set a buffer frequency different from the
sensor sampling frequency is to support use cases that need accurate event
detection (which requires a high sampling frequency) while retrieving
sensor data at low frequency. Since all the supported event types are
generated from acceleration data only, do not create the buffer sampling
frequency attribute for sensor types other than the accelerometer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Change AMDGPU_VA_RESERVED_TRAP_SIZE to 64KB
Currently, AMDGPU_VA_RESERVED_TRAP_SIZE is hardcoded to 8KB, while
KFD_CWSR_TBA_TMA_SIZE is defined as 2 * PAGE_SIZE. On systems with
4K pages, both values match (8KB), so allocation and reserved space
are consistent.
However, on 64K page-size systems, KFD_CWSR_TBA_TMA_SIZE becomes 128KB,
while the reserved trap area remains 8KB. This mismatch causes the
kernel to crash when running rocminfo or rccl unit tests.

This patch changes AMDGPU_VA_RESERVED_TRAP_SIZE to 64 KB and
KFD_CWSR_TBA_TMA_SIZE to the AMD GPU page size. This means we reserve
64 KB for the trap in the address space, but only allocate 8 KB within
it. With this approach, the allocation size never exceeds the reserved
area.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: validate doorbell_offset in user queue creation
amdgpu_userq_get_doorbell_index() passes the user-provided
doorbell_offset to amdgpu_doorbell_index_on_bar() without bounds
checking. An arbitrarily large doorbell_offset can cause the
calculated doorbell index to fall outside the allocated doorbell BO,
potentially corrupting kernel doorbell space.
Validate that doorbell_offset falls within the doorbell BO before
computing the BAR index, using u64 arithmetic to prevent overflow.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/i915/dsi: Don't do DSC horizontal timing adjustments in command mode
Stop adjusting the horizontal timing values based on the
compression ratio in command mode. Bspec seems to be telling
us to do this only in video mode, and this is also how the
Windows driver does things.
This should also fix a div-by-zero on some machines because
the adjusted htotal ends up being so small that we end up with
line_time_us==0 when trying to determine the vtotal value in
command mode.
Note that this doesn't actually make the display on the
Huawei Matebook E work, but at least the kernel no longer
explodes when the driver loads.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: adc: ti-adc161s626: use DMA-safe memory for spi_read()
Add a DMA-safe buffer and use it for spi_read() instead of a stack
memory. All SPI buffers must be DMA-safe.
Since we only need up to 3 bytes, we just use a u8[] instead of __be16
and __be32 and change the conversion functions appropriately.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bridge: br_nd_send: validate ND option lengths
br_nd_send() walks ND options according to option-provided lengths.
A malformed option can make the parser advance beyond the computed
option span or use a too-short source LLADDR option payload.
Validate option lengths against the remaining NS option area before
advancing, and only read source LLADDR when the option is large enough
for an Ethernet address.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
auxdisplay: line-display: fix NULL dereference in linedisp_release
linedisp_release() currently retrieves the enclosing struct linedisp via
to_linedisp(). That lookup depends on the attachment list, but the
attachment may already have been removed before put_device() invokes the
release callback. This can happen in linedisp_unregister(), and can also
be reached from some linedisp_register() error paths.
In that case, to_linedisp() returns NULL and linedisp_release()
dereferences it while freeing the display resources.
The struct device released here is the embedded linedisp->dev used by
linedisp_register(), so retrieve the enclosing object directly with
container_of() instead.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: cdns3: gadget: fix state inconsistency on gadget init failure
When cdns3_gadget_start() fails, the DRD hardware is left in gadget mode
while software state remains INACTIVE, creating hardware/software state
inconsistency.
When switching to host mode via sysfs:
echo host > /sys/class/usb_role/13180000.usb-role-switch/role
The role state is not set to CDNS_ROLE_STATE_ACTIVE due to the error,
so cdns_role_stop() skips cleanup because state is still INACTIVE.
This violates the DRD controller design specification (Figure22),
which requires returning to idle state before switching roles.
This leads to a synchronous external abort in xhci_gen_setup() when
setting up the host controller:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: cdns3: gadget: fix NULL pointer dereference in ep_queue
When the gadget endpoint is disabled or not yet configured, the ep->desc
pointer can be NULL. This leads to a NULL pointer dereference when
__cdns3_gadget_ep_queue() is called, causing a kernel crash.
Add a check to return -ESHUTDOWN if ep->desc is NULL, which is the
standard return code for unconfigured endpoints.
This prevents potential crashes when ep_queue is called on endpoints
that are not ready.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: dwc2: gadget: Fix spin_lock/unlock mismatch in dwc2_hsotg_udc_stop()
dwc2_gadget_exit_clock_gating() internally calls call_gadget() macro,
which expects hsotg->lock to be held since it does spin_unlock/spin_lock
around the gadget driver callback invocation.
However, dwc2_hsotg_udc_stop() calls dwc2_gadget_exit_clock_gating()
without holding the lock. This leads to:
- spin_unlock on a lock that is not held (undefined behavior)
- The lock remaining held after dwc2_gadget_exit_clock_gating() returns,
causing a deadlock when spin_lock_irqsave() is called later in the
same function.
Fix this by acquiring hsotg->lock before calling
dwc2_gadget_exit_clock_gating() and releasing it afterwards, which
satisfies the locking requirement of the call_gadget() macro.
