In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Balance device refcount when destroying devices
Using device_find_child() to lookup the proper SCMI device to destroy
causes an unbalance in device refcount, since device_find_child() calls an
implicit get_device(): this, in turns, inhibits the call of the provided
release methods upon devices destruction.
As a consequence, one of the structures that is not freed properly upon
destruction is the internal struct device_private dev->p populated by the
drivers subsystem core.
KMemleak detects this situation since loading/unloding some SCMI driver
causes related devices to be created/destroyed without calling any
device_release method.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: inftlcore: Add error check for inftl_read_oob()
In INFTL_findwriteunit(), the return value of inftl_read_oob()
need to be checked. A proper implementation can be
found in INFTL_deleteblock(). The status will be set as
SECTOR_IGNORE to break from the while-loop correctly
if the inftl_read_oob() fails.

setuptools is a package that allows users to download, build, install, upgrade, and uninstall Python packages. A path traversal vulnerability in `PackageIndex` is present in setuptools prior to version 78.1.1. An attacker would be allowed to write files to arbitrary locations on the filesystem with the permissions of the process running the Python code, which could escalate to remote code execution depending on the context. Version 78.1.1 fixes the issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net_sched: hfsc: Fix a UAF vulnerability in class with netem as child qdisc
As described in Gerrard's report [1], we have a UAF case when an hfsc class
has a netem child qdisc. The crux of the issue is that hfsc is assuming
that checking for cl->qdisc->q.qlen == 0 guarantees that it hasn't inserted
the class in the vttree or eltree (which is not true for the netem
duplicate case).
This patch checks the n_active class variable to make sure that the code
won't insert the class in the vttree or eltree twice, catering for the
reentrant case.

Tornado is a Python web framework and asynchronous networking library. When Tornado's ``multipart/form-data`` parser encounters certain errors, it logs a warning but continues trying to parse the remainder of the data. This allows remote attackers to generate an extremely high volume of logs, constituting a DoS attack. This DoS is compounded by the fact that the logging subsystem is synchronous. All versions of Tornado prior to 6.5.0 are affected. The vulnerable parser is enabled by default. Upgrade to Tornado version 6.50 to receive a patch. As a workaround, risk can be mitigated by blocking `Content-Type: multipart/form-data` in a proxy.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: ops: Consistently treat platform_max as control value
This reverts commit 9bdd10d57a88 ("ASoC: ops: Shift tested values in
snd_soc_put_volsw() by +min"), and makes some additional related
updates.
There are two ways the platform_max could be interpreted; the maximum
register value, or the maximum value the control can be set to. The
patch moved from treating the value as a control value to a register
one. When the patch was applied it was technically correct as
snd_soc_limit_volume() also used the register interpretation. However,
even then most of the other usages treated platform_max as a
control value, and snd_soc_limit_volume() has since been updated to
also do so in commit fb9ad24485087 ("ASoC: ops: add correct range
check for limiting volume"). That patch however, missed updating
snd_soc_put_volsw() back to the control interpretation, and fixing
snd_soc_info_volsw_range(). The control interpretation makes more
sense as limiting is typically done from the machine driver, so it is
appropriate to use the customer facing representation rather than the
internal codec representation. Update all the code to consistently use
this interpretation of platform_max.
Finally, also add some comments to the soc_mixer_control struct to
hopefully avoid further patches switching between the two approaches.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
9p/net: fix improper handling of bogus negative read/write replies
In p9_client_write() and p9_client_read_once(), if the server
incorrectly replies with success but a negative write/read count then we
would consider written (negative) <= rsize (positive) because both
variables were signed.
Make variables unsigned to avoid this problem.
The reproducer linked below now fails with the following error instead
of a null pointer deref:
9pnet: bogus RWRITE count (4294967295 > 3)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: aspeed: Add NULL pointer check in ast_vhub_init_dev()
The variable d->name, returned by devm_kasprintf(), could be NULL.
A pointer check is added to prevent potential NULL pointer dereference.
This is similar to the fix in commit 3027e7b15b02
("ice: Fix some null pointer dereference issues in ice_ptp.c").

s390/sclp: Add check for get_zeroed_page()
Add check for the return value of get_zeroed_page() in
sclp_console_init() to prevent null pointer dereference.
Furthermore, to solve the memory leak caused by the loop
allocation, add a free helper to do the free job.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix deadlock between rcu_tasks_trace and event_mutex.
Fix the following deadlock:
CPU A
_free_event()
perf_kprobe_destroy()
mutex_lock(&event_mutex)
perf_trace_event_unreg()
synchronize_rcu_tasks_trace()
There are several paths where _free_event() grabs event_mutex
and calls sync_rcu_tasks_trace. Above is one such case.
CPU B
bpf_prog_test_run_syscall()
rcu_read_lock_trace()
bpf_prog_run_pin_on_cpu()
bpf_prog_load()
bpf_tracing_func_proto()
trace_set_clr_event()
mutex_lock(&event_mutex)
Delegate trace_set_clr_event() to workqueue to avoid
such lock dependency.
