dentry_unlink_inode
upperdentry->d_inode = NULL
realinode = d_inode(realpath.dentry) // return NULL
inode_permission(realinode)
inode->i_sb // NULL pointer dereference
, will trigger an null pointer dereference at realinode:

The ACPI buffer memory (buf.pointer) should be freed. But the buffer
is also used after returning from acpi_get_dsd_graph().
Move the temporary variables buf to acpi_coresight_parse_graph(),
and free it before the function return to prevent memory leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: install stub fence into potential unused fence pointers
When using cpu to update page tables, vm update fences are unused.
Install stub fence into these fence pointers instead of NULL
to avoid NULL dereference when calling dma_fence_wait() on them.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: imx: clk-imx8mn: fix memory leak in imx8mn_clocks_probe
Use devm_of_iomap() instead of of_iomap() to automatically handle
the unused ioremap region.
If any error occurs, regions allocated by kzalloc() will leak,
but using devm_kzalloc() instead will automatically free the memory
using devm_kfree().

---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception ]---
It is because previous patch added kobject_put() to release the memory
which will call dmi_sysfs_entry_release() and list_del().
However, list_add_tail(entry->list) is called after the error block,
so the list_head is uninitialized and cannot be deleted.
Move error handling to after list_add_tail to fix this.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: pcie: fix NULL pointer dereference in iwl_pcie_irq_rx_msix_handler()
rxq can be NULL only when trans_pcie->rxq is NULL and entry->entry
is zero. For the case when entry->entry is not equal to 0, rxq
won't be NULL even if trans_pcie->rxq is NULL. Modify checker to
check for trans_pcie->rxq.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: use RCU for hci_conn_params and iterate safely in hci_sync
hci_update_accept_list_sync iterates over hdev->pend_le_conns and
hdev->pend_le_reports, and waits for controller events in the loop body,
without holding hdev lock.
Meanwhile, these lists and the items may be modified e.g. by
le_scan_cleanup. This can invalidate the list cursor or any other item
in the list, resulting to invalid behavior (eg use-after-free).
Use RCU for the hci_conn_params action lists. Since the loop bodies in
hci_sync block and we cannot use RCU or hdev->lock for the whole loop,
copy list items first and then iterate on the copy. Only the flags field
is written from elsewhere, so READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE should guarantee we
read valid values.
Free params everywhere with hci_conn_params_free so the cleanup is
guaranteed to be done properly.
This fixes the following, which can be triggered e.g. by BlueZ new
mgmt-tester case "Add + Remove Device Nowait - Success", or by changing
hci_le_set_cig_params to always return false, and running iso-tester:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: nvidia-shield: Reference hid_device devm allocation of input_dev name
Use hid_device for devm allocation of the input_dev name to avoid a
use-after-free. input_unregister_device would trigger devres cleanup of all
resources associated with the input_dev, free-ing the name. The name would
subsequently be used in a uevent fired at the end of unregistering the
input_dev.
