Linux: >> Linux Kernel >> 3.18.137 Security Vulnerabilities
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drivers/md/md-bitmap: check the return value of md_bitmap_get_counter()
Check the return value of md_bitmap_get_counter() in case it returns
NULL pointer, which will result in a null pointer dereference.
v2: update the check to include other dereference

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/tunnel: wait until all sk_user_data reader finish before releasing the sock
There is a race condition in vxlan that when deleting a vxlan device
during receiving packets, there is a possibility that the sock is
released after getting vxlan_sock vs from sk_user_data. Then in
later vxlan_ecn_decapsulate(), vxlan_get_sk_family() we will got
NULL pointer dereference. e.g.

Fix this by waiting for all sk_user_data reader to finish before
releasing the sock.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: dwc3: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()
When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it,
otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just
call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic
at once.
Note, the root dentry for the debugfs directory for the device needs to
be saved so we don't have to keep looking it up, which required a bit
more refactoring to properly create and remove it when needed.
