In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: rfkill: gpio: Fix crash due to dereferencering uninitialized pointer
Since commit 7d5e9737efda ("net: rfkill: gpio: get the name and type from
device property") rfkill_find_type() gets called with the possibly
uninitialized "const char *type_name;" local variable.
On x86 systems when rfkill-gpio binds to a "BCM4752" or "LNV4752"
acpi_device, the rfkill->type is set based on the ACPI acpi_device_id:
rfkill->type = (unsigned)id->driver_data;
and there is no "type" property so device_property_read_string() will fail
and leave type_name uninitialized, leading to a potential crash.
rfkill_find_type() does accept a NULL pointer, fix the potential crash
by initializing type_name to NULL.
Note likely sofar this has not been caught because:
1. Not many x86 machines actually have a "BCM4752"/"LNV4752" acpi_device
2. The stack happened to contain NULL where type_name is stored

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-stripe: fix a possible integer overflow
There's a possible integer overflow in stripe_io_hints if we have too
large chunk size. Test if the overflow happened, and if it did, don't set
limits->io_min and limits->io_opt;

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: af_alg - Set merge to zero early in af_alg_sendmsg
If an error causes af_alg_sendmsg to abort, ctx->merge may contain
a garbage value from the previous loop. This may then trigger a
crash on the next entry into af_alg_sendmsg when it attempts to do
a merge that can't be done.
Fix this by setting ctx->merge to zero near the start of the loop.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: let smbd_destroy() call disable_work_sync(&info->post_send_credits_work)
In smbd_destroy() we may destroy the memory so we better
wait until post_send_credits_work is no longer pending
and will never be started again.
I actually just hit the case using rxe:

It means rxe_post_recv was called after rdma_destroy_qp().
This happened because put_receive_buffer() was triggered
by ib_drain_qp() and called:
queue_work(info->workqueue, &info->post_send_credits_work);

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nbd: fix incomplete validation of ioctl arg
We tested and found an alarm caused by nbd_ioctl arg without verification.
The UBSAN warning calltrace like below:
UBSAN: Undefined behaviour in fs/buffer.c:1709:35
signed integer overflow:

The reason for triggering this warning is __block_write_full_page()
-> i_size_read(inode) - 1 overflow.
inode->i_size is assigned in __nbd_ioctl() -> nbd_set_size() -> bytesize.
We think it is necessary to limit the size of arg to prevent errors.
Moreover, __nbd_ioctl() -> nbd_add_socket(), arg will be cast to int.
Assuming the value of arg is 0x80000000000000001) (on a 64-bit machine),
it will become 1 after the coercion, which will return unexpected results.
Fix it by adding checks to prevent passing in too large numbers.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: do not update mtu if msg_max is too small in mtu negotiation
When doing link mtu negotiation, a malicious peer may send Activate msg
with a very small mtu, e.g. 4 in Shuang's testing, without checking for
the minimum mtu, l->mtu will be set to 4 in tipc_link_proto_rcv(), then
n->links[bearer_id].mtu is set to 4294967228, which is a overflow of
'4 - INT_H_SIZE - EMSG_OVERHEAD' in tipc_link_mss().
With tipc_link.mtu = 4, tipc_link_xmit() kept printing the warning:
tipc: Too large msg, purging xmit list 1 5 0 40 4!
tipc: Too large msg, purging xmit list 1 15 0 60 4!
And with tipc_link_entry.mtu 4294967228, a huge skb was allocated in
named_distribute(), and when purging it in tipc_link_xmit(), a crash
was even caused:
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0x2100001011000dd: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP PTI
CPU: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Kdump: loaded Not tainted 6.3.0.neta #19

This patch fixes it by checking the new mtu against tipc_bearer_min_mtu(),
and not updating mtu if it is too small.
