Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mmc: rtsx_usb_sdmmc: fix return value check of mmc_add_host()
mmc_add_host() may return error, if we ignore its return value, the memory
that allocated in mmc_alloc_host() will be leaked and it will lead a kernel
crash because of deleting not added device in the remove path.
So fix this by checking the return value and calling mmc_free_host() in the
error path, besides, led_classdev_unregister() and pm_runtime_disable() also
need be called.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: Fix a memory leak in an error handling path
If this memdup_user() call fails, the memory allocated in a previous call
a few lines above should be freed. Otherwise it leaks.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
misc: tifm: fix possible memory leak in tifm_7xx1_switch_media()
If device_register() returns error in tifm_7xx1_switch_media(),
name of kobject which is allocated in dev_set_name() called in device_add()
is leaked.
Never directly free @dev after calling device_register(), even
if it returned an error! Always use put_device() to give up the
reference initialized.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: iscsi: Fix a race condition between login_work and the login thread
In case a malicious initiator sends some random data immediately after a
login PDU; the iscsi_target_sk_data_ready() callback will schedule the
login_work and, at the same time, the negotiation may end without clearing
the LOGIN_FLAGS_INITIAL_PDU flag (because no additional PDU exchanges are
required to complete the login).
The login has been completed but the login_work function will find the
LOGIN_FLAGS_INITIAL_PDU flag set and will never stop from rescheduling
itself; at this point, if the initiator drops the connection, the
iscsit_conn structure will be freed, login_work will dereference a released
socket structure and the kernel crashes.
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000230
PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode

Fix this bug by forcing login_work to stop after the login has been
completed and the socket callbacks have been restored.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: vimc: Fix wrong function called when vimc_init() fails
In vimc_init(), when platform_driver_register(&vimc_pdrv) fails,
platform_driver_unregister(&vimc_pdrv) is wrongly called rather than
platform_device_unregister(&vimc_pdev), which causes kernel warning:
Unexpected driver unregister!

This is because in scatterwalk_copychunks(), we attempted to write to
a buffer (@sign) that was allocated in the stack (vmalloc area) by
crypt_message() and thus accessing its remaining 8 (x2) bytes ended up
crossing a page boundary.
To simply fix it, we could just pass @sign kmalloc'd from
crypt_message() and then we're done. Luckily, we don't seem to pass
any other vmalloc'd buffers in smb_rqst::rq_iov...
Instead, let's map the correct pages and offsets from vmalloc buffers
as well in cifs_sg_set_buf() and then avoiding such oopses.

If the floppy_alloc_disk() failed, disks of current drive will not be set,
thus the lastest allocated set->tag cannot be freed in the error handling
path. A simple call graph shown as below:
floppy_module_init()
floppy_init()
do_floppy_init()
for (drive = 0; drive < N_DRIVE; drive++)
blk_mq_alloc_tag_set()
blk_mq_alloc_tag_set_tags()
blk_mq_realloc_tag_set_tags() # set->tag allocated
floppy_alloc_disk()
blk_mq_alloc_disk() # error occurred, disks failed to allocated
->out_put_disk:
for (drive = 0; drive < N_DRIVE; drive++)
if (!disks[drive][0]) # the last disks is not set and loop break
break;
blk_mq_free_tag_set() # the latest allocated set->tag leaked
Fix this problem by free the set->tag of current drive before jump to
error handling path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rapidio: fix possible name leaks when rio_add_device() fails
Patch series "rapidio: fix three possible memory leaks".
This patchset fixes three name leaks in error handling.
- patch #1 fixes two name leaks while rio_add_device() fails.
- patch #2 fixes a name leak while rio_register_mport() fails.
This patch (of 2):
If rio_add_device() returns error, the name allocated by dev_set_name()
need be freed. It should use put_device() to give up the reference in the
error path, so that the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup(), and the
'rdev' can be freed in rio_release_dev().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: avoid hci_dev_test_and_set_flag() in mgmt_init_hdev()
syzbot is again reporting attempt to cancel uninitialized work
at mgmt_index_removed() [1], for setting of HCI_MGMT flag from
mgmt_init_hdev() from hci_mgmt_cmd() from hci_sock_sendmsg() can
race with testing of HCI_MGMT flag from mgmt_index_removed() from
hci_sock_bind() due to lack of serialization via hci_dev_lock().
Since mgmt_init_hdev() is called with mgmt_chan_list_lock held, we can
safely split hci_dev_test_and_set_flag() into hci_dev_test_flag() and
hci_dev_set_flag(). Thus, in order to close this race, set HCI_MGMT flag
after INIT_DELAYED_WORK() completed.
This is a local fix based on mgmt_chan_list_lock. Lack of serialization
via hci_dev_lock() might be causing different race conditions somewhere
else. But a global fix based on hci_dev_lock() should deserve a future
patch.
