In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ubi: Fix unreferenced object reported by kmemleak in ubi_resize_volume()
There is a memory leaks problem reported by kmemleak:
unreferenced object 0xffff888102007a00 (size 128):
comm "ubirsvol", pid 32090, jiffies 4298464136 (age 2361.231s)

This is due to a mismatch between create and destroy interfaces, and
in detail that "new_eba_tbl" created by ubi_eba_create_table() but
destroyed by kfree(), while will causing "new_eba_tbl->entries" not
freed.
Fix it by replacing kfree(new_eba_tbl) with
ubi_eba_destroy_table(new_eba_tbl)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
VMCI: check context->notify_page after call to get_user_pages_fast() to avoid GPF
The call to get_user_pages_fast() in vmci_host_setup_notify() can return
NULL context->notify_page causing a GPF. To avoid GPF check if
context->notify_page == NULL and return error if so.
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
coresight: Fix memory leak in acpi_buffer->pointer
There are memory leaks reported by kmemleak:

unreferenced object 0xffff00213c141000 (size 1024):

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().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cacheinfo: Fix shared_cpu_map to handle shared caches at different levels
The cacheinfo sets up the shared_cpu_map by checking whether the caches
with the same index are shared between CPUs. However, this will trigger
slab-out-of-bounds access if the CPUs do not have the same cache hierarchy.
Another problem is the mismatched shared_cpu_map when the shared cache does
not have the same index between CPUs.
CPU0 I D L3
index 0 1 2 x
^ ^ ^ ^
index 0 1 2 3
CPU1 I D L2 L3
This patch checks each cache is shared with all caches on other CPUs.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: stratix10-svc: Fix a potential resource leak in svc_create_memory_pool()
svc_create_memory_pool() is only called from stratix10_svc_drv_probe().
Most of resources in the probe are managed, but not this memremap() call.
There is also no memunmap() call in the file.
So switch to devm_memremap() to avoid a resource leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm/mdp5: Add check for kzalloc
As kzalloc may fail and return NULL pointer,
it should be better to check the return value
in order to avoid the NULL pointer dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: call op_release, even when op_func returns an error
For ops with "trivial" replies, nfsd4_encode_operation will shortcut
most of the encoding work and skip to just marshalling up the status.
One of the things it skips is calling op_release. This could cause a
memory leak in the layoutget codepath if there is an error at an
inopportune time.
Have the compound processing engine always call op_release, even when
op_func sets an error in op->status. With this change, we also need
nfsd4_block_get_device_info_scsi to set the gd_device pointer to NULL
on error to avoid a double free.
