In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
regulator: of: Fix refcount leak bug in of_get_regulation_constraints()
We should call the of_node_put() for the reference returned by
of_get_child_by_name() which has increased the refcount.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ath9k: fix use-after-free in ath9k_hif_usb_rx_cb
Syzbot reported use-after-free Read in ath9k_hif_usb_rx_cb() [0]. The
problem was in incorrect htc_handle->drv_priv initialization.
Probable call trace which can trigger use-after-free:
ath9k_htc_probe_device()
/* htc_handle->drv_priv = priv; */
ath9k_htc_wait_for_target() <--- Failed
ieee80211_free_hw() <--- priv pointer is freed
<IRQ>
...
ath9k_hif_usb_rx_cb()
ath9k_hif_usb_rx_stream()
RX_STAT_INC() <--- htc_handle->drv_priv access
In order to not add fancy protection for drv_priv we can move
htc_handle->drv_priv initialization at the end of the
ath9k_htc_probe_device() and add helper macro to make
all *_STAT_* macros NULL safe, since syzbot has reported related NULL
deref in that macros [1]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio-gpu: fix a missing check to avoid NULL dereference
'cache_ent' could be set NULL inside virtio_gpu_cmd_get_capset()
and it will lead to a NULL dereference by a lately use of it
(i.e., ptr = cache_ent->caps_cache). Fix it with a NULL check.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: wil6210: debugfs: fix info leak in wil_write_file_wmi()
The simple_write_to_buffer() function will succeed if even a single
byte is initialized. However, we need to initialize the whole buffer
to prevent information leaks. Just use memdup_user().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: libertas: Fix possible refcount leak in if_usb_probe()
usb_get_dev will be called before lbs_get_firmware_async which means that
usb_put_dev need to be called when lbs_get_firmware_async fails.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: wil6210: debugfs: fix uninitialized variable use in `wil_write_file_wmi()`
Commit 7a4836560a61 changes simple_write_to_buffer() with memdup_user()
but it forgets to change the value to be returned that came from
simple_write_to_buffer() call. It results in the following warning:
warning: variable 'rc' is uninitialized when used here [-Wuninitialized]
return rc;
^~
Remove rc variable and just return the passed in length if the
memdup_user() succeeds.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: When HCI work queue is drained, only queue chained work
The HCI command, event, and data packet processing workqueue is drained
to avoid deadlock in commit
76727c02c1e1 ("Bluetooth: Call drain_workqueue() before resetting state").
There is another delayed work, which will queue command to this drained
workqueue. Which results in the following error report:
Bluetooth: hci2: command 0x040f tx timeout

To fix this, we can add a new HCI_DRAIN_WQ flag, and don't queue the
timeout workqueue while command workqueue is draining.

usb: ohci-nxp: Fix refcount leak in ohci_hcd_nxp_probe
of_parse_phandle() returns a node pointer with refcount
incremented, we should use of_node_put() on it when not need anymore.
Add missing of_node_put() to avoid refcount leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
memstick/ms_block: Fix a memory leak
'erased_blocks_bitmap' is never freed. As it is allocated at the same time
as 'used_blocks_bitmap', it is likely that it should be freed also at the
same time.
Add the corresponding bitmap_free() in msb_data_clear().
