Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/pf: Fix use-after-free in migration restore
When an error is returned from xe_sriov_pf_migration_restore_produce(),
the data pointer is not set to NULL, which can trigger use-after-free
in subsequent .write() calls.
Set the pointer to NULL upon error to fix the problem.
(cherry picked from commit 4f53d8c6d23527d734fe3531d08e15cb170a0819)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/irdma: Harden depth calculation functions
An issue was exposed where OS can pass in U32_MAX for SQ/RQ/SRQ size.
This can cause integer overflow and truncation of SQ/RQ/SRQ depth
returning a success when it should have failed.
Harden the functions to do all depth calculations and boundary
checking in u64 sizes.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix potential deadlock in cpu hotplug with osnoise
The following sequence may leads deadlock in cpu hotplug:
task1 task2 task3
----- ----- -----
mutex_lock(&interface_lock)
[CPU GOING OFFLINE]
cpus_write_lock();
osnoise_cpu_die();
kthread_stop(task3);
wait_for_completion();
osnoise_sleep();
mutex_lock(&interface_lock);
cpus_read_lock();
[DEAD LOCK]
Fix by swap the order of cpus_read_lock() and mutex_lock(&interface_lock).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Drain deferred trigger frees if kthread creation fails
Boot-time trigger registration can fail before the trigger-data cleanup
kthread exists. Deferring those frees until late init is fine, but the
post-boot fallback must still drain the deferred list if kthread
creation never succeeds.
Otherwise, boot-deferred nodes can accumulate on
trigger_data_free_list, later frees fall back to synchronously freeing
only the current object, and the older queued entries are leaked
forever.
To trigger this, add the following to the kernel command line:
trace_event=sched_switch trace_trigger=sched_switch.traceon,sched_switch.traceon
The second traceon trigger will fail and be freed. This triggers a NULL
pointer dereference and crashes the kernel.
Keep the deferred boot-time behavior, but when kthread creation fails,
drain the whole queued list synchronously. Do the same in the late-init
drain path so queued entries are not stranded there either.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/entry: Scrub r12 register on kernel entry
Before commit f33f2d4c7c80 ("s390/bp: remove TIF_ISOLATE_BP"),
all entry handlers loaded r12 with the current task pointer
(lg %r12,__LC_CURRENT) for use by the BPENTER/BPEXIT macros. That
commit removed TIF_ISOLATE_BP, dropping both the branch prediction
macros and the r12 load, but did not add r12 to the register clearing
sequence.
Add the missing xgr %r12,%r12 to make the register scrub consistent
across all entry points.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/syscalls: Add spectre boundary for syscall dispatch table
The s390 syscall number is directly controlled by userspace, but does
not have an array_index_nospec() boundary to prevent access past the
syscall function pointer tables.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/fdinfo: fix OOB read in SQE_MIXED wrap check
__io_uring_show_fdinfo() iterates over pending SQEs and, for 128-byte
SQEs on an IORING_SETUP_SQE_MIXED ring, needs to detect when the second
half of the SQE would be past the end of the sq_sqes array. The current
check tests (++sq_head & sq_mask) == 0, but sq_head is only incremented
when a 128-byte SQE is encountered, not on every iteration. The actual
array index is sq_idx = (i + sq_head) & sq_mask, which can be sq_mask
(the last slot) while the wrap check passes.
Fix by checking sq_idx directly. Keep the sq_head increment so the loop
still skips the second half of the 128-byte SQE on the next iteration.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: spi-fsl-lpspi: fix teardown order issue (UAF)
There is a teardown order issue in the driver. The SPI controller is
registered using devm_spi_register_controller(), which delays
unregistration of the SPI controller until after the fsl_lpspi_remove()
function returns.
As the fsl_lpspi_remove() function synchronously tears down the DMA
channels, a running SPI transfer triggers the following NULL pointer
dereference due to use after free:
| fsl_lpspi 42550000.spi: I/O Error in DMA RX
| Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000
[...]
| Call trace:
| fsl_lpspi_dma_transfer+0x260/0x340 [spi_fsl_lpspi]
| fsl_lpspi_transfer_one+0x198/0x448 [spi_fsl_lpspi]

[...]
Switch from devm_spi_register_controller() to spi_register_controller() in
fsl_lpspi_probe() and add the corresponding spi_unregister_controller() in
fsl_lpspi_remove().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: isotp: fix tx.buf use-after-free in isotp_sendmsg()
isotp_sendmsg() uses only cmpxchg() on so->tx.state to serialize access
to so->tx.buf. isotp_release() waits for ISOTP_IDLE via
wait_event_interruptible() and then calls kfree(so->tx.buf).
If a signal interrupts the wait_event_interruptible() inside close()
while tx.state is ISOTP_SENDING, the loop exits early and release
proceeds to force ISOTP_SHUTDOWN and continues to kfree(so->tx.buf)
while sendmsg may still be reading so->tx.buf for the final CAN frame
in isotp_fill_dataframe().
The so->tx.buf can be allocated once when the standard tx.buf length needs
to be extended. Move the kfree() of this potentially extended tx.buf to
sk_destruct time when either isotp_sendmsg() and isotp_release() are done.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: sma1307: fix double free of devm_kzalloc() memory
A previous change added NULL checks and cleanup for allocation
failures in sma1307_setting_loaded().
However, the cleanup for mode_set entries is wrong. Those entries are
allocated with devm_kzalloc(), so they are device-managed resources and
must not be freed with kfree(). Manually freeing them in the error path
can lead to a double free when devres later releases the same memory.
Drop the manual kfree() loop and let devres handle the cleanup.
