In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
parisc: Fix locking in pdc_iodc_print() firmware call
Utilize pdc_lock spinlock to protect parallel modifications of the
iodc_dbuf[] buffer, check length to prevent buffer overflow of
iodc_dbuf[], drop the iodc_retbuf[] buffer and fix some wrong
indentings.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nilfs2: replace WARN_ONs by nilfs_error for checkpoint acquisition failure
If creation or finalization of a checkpoint fails due to anomalies in the
checkpoint metadata on disk, a kernel warning is generated.
This patch replaces the WARN_ONs by nilfs_error, so that a kernel, booted
with panic_on_warn, does not panic. A nilfs_error is appropriate here to
handle the abnormal filesystem condition.
This also replaces the detected error codes with an I/O error so that
neither of the internal error codes is returned to callers.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/radeon: Fix PCI device refcount leak in radeon_atrm_get_bios()
As comment of pci_get_class() says, it returns a pci_device with its
refcount increased and decreased the refcount for the input parameter
@from if it is not NULL.
If we break the loop in radeon_atrm_get_bios() with 'pdev' not NULL, we
need to call pci_dev_put() to decrease the refcount. Add the missing
pci_dev_put() to avoid refcount leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86: mxm-wmi: fix memleak in mxm_wmi_call_mx[ds|mx]()
The ACPI buffer memory (out.pointer) returned by wmi_evaluate_method()
is not freed after the call, so it leads to memory leak.
The method results in ACPI buffer is not used, so just pass NULL to
wmi_evaluate_method() which fixes the memory leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_hid: fix refcount leak on error path
When failing to allocate report_desc, opts->refcnt has already been
incremented so it needs to be decremented to avoid leaving the options
structure permanently locked.

netdevsim: fix memory leak in nsim_drv_probe() when nsim_dev_resources_register() failed

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: coda: Add check for dcoda_iram_alloc
As the coda_iram_alloc may return NULL pointer,
it should be better to check the return value
in order to avoid NULL poineter dereference,
same as the others.

Use rtas_busy_delay_time() instead, which signals without side effects
whether to attempt the ibm,os-term RTAS call again.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm: fix use-after-free on probe deferral
The bridge counter was never reset when tearing down the DRM device so
that stale pointers to deallocated structures would be accessed on the
next tear down (e.g. after a second late bind deferral).
Given enough bridges and a few probe deferrals this could currently also
lead to data beyond the bridge array being corrupted.
