In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: make sure skb->len != 0 when redirecting to a tunneling device
syzkaller managed to trigger another case where skb->len == 0
when we enter __dev_queue_xmit:

The reproducer doesn't really reproduce outside of syzkaller
environment, so I'm taking a guess here. It looks like we
do generate correct ETH_HLEN-sized packet, but we redirect
the packet to the tunneling device. Before we do so, we
__skb_pull l2 header and arrive again at skb->len == 0.
Doesn't seem like we can do anything better than having
an explicit check after __skb_pull?

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix reading strings from synthetic events
The follow commands caused a crash:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo 's:open char file[]' > dynamic_events
# echo 'hist:keys=common_pid:file=filename:onchange($file).trace(open,$file)' > events/syscalls/sys_enter_openat/trigger'
# echo 1 > events/synthetic/open/enable
BOOM!
The problem is that the synthetic event field "char file[]" will read
the value given to it as a string without any memory checks to make sure
the address is valid. The above example will pass in the user space
address and the sythetic event code will happily call strlen() on it
and then strscpy() where either one will cause an oops when accessing
user space addresses.
Use the helper functions from trace_kprobe and trace_eprobe that can
read strings safely (and actually succeed when the address is from user
space and the memory is mapped in).
Now the above can show:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/meson: remove drm bridges at aggregate driver unbind time
drm bridges added by meson_encoder_hdmi_init and meson_encoder_cvbs_init
were not manually removed at module unload time, which caused dangling
references to freed memory to remain linked in the global bridge_list.
When loading the driver modules back in, the same functions would again
call drm_bridge_add, and when traversing the global bridge_list, would
end up peeking into freed memory.
Once again KASAN revealed the problem:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmfmac: Fix potential stack-out-of-bounds in brcmf_c_preinit_dcmds()
This patch fixes a stack-out-of-bounds read in brcmfmac that occurs
when 'buf' that is not null-terminated is passed as an argument of
strsep() in brcmf_c_preinit_dcmds(). This buffer is filled with a firmware
version string by memcpy() in brcmf_fil_iovar_data_get().
The patch ensures buf is null-terminated.
Found by a modified version of syzkaller.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm: Make .remove and .shutdown HW shutdown consistent
Drivers' .remove and .shutdown callbacks are executed on different code
paths. The former is called when a device is removed from the bus, while
the latter is called at system shutdown time to quiesce the device.
This means that some overlap exists between the two, because both have to
take care of properly shutting down the hardware. But currently the logic
used in these two callbacks isn't consistent in msm drivers, which could
lead to kernel panic.
For example, on .remove the component is deleted and its .unbind callback
leads to the hardware being shutdown but only if the DRM device has been
marked as registered.
That check doesn't exist in the .shutdown logic and this can lead to the
driver calling drm_atomic_helper_shutdown() for a DRM device that hasn't
been properly initialized.
A situation like this can happen if drivers for expected sub-devices fail
to probe, since the .bind callback will never be executed. If that is the
case, drm_atomic_helper_shutdown() will attempt to take mutexes that are
only initialized if drm_mode_config_init() is called during a device bind.
This bug was attempted to be fixed in commit 623f279c7781 ("drm/msm: fix
shutdown hook in case GPU components failed to bind"), but unfortunately
it still happens in some cases as the one mentioned above, i.e:
systemd-shutdown[1]: Powering off.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/sti: Fix return type of sti_{dvo,hda,hdmi}_connector_mode_valid()
With clang's kernel control flow integrity (kCFI, CONFIG_CFI_CLANG),
indirect call targets are validated against the expected function
pointer prototype to make sure the call target is valid to help mitigate
ROP attacks. If they are not identical, there is a failure at run time,
which manifests as either a kernel panic or thread getting killed. A
proposed warning in clang aims to catch these at compile time, which
reveals:
drivers/gpu/drm/sti/sti_hda.c:637:16: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'enum drm_mode_status (*)(struct drm_connector *, struct drm_display_mode *)' with an expression of type 'int (struct drm_connector *, struct drm_display_mode *)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
.mode_valid = sti_hda_connector_mode_valid,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/gpu/drm/sti/sti_dvo.c:376:16: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'enum drm_mode_status (*)(struct drm_connector *, struct drm_display_mode *)' with an expression of type 'int (struct drm_connector *, struct drm_display_mode *)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
.mode_valid = sti_dvo_connector_mode_valid,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
drivers/gpu/drm/sti/sti_hdmi.c:1035:16: error: incompatible function pointer types initializing 'enum drm_mode_status (*)(struct drm_connector *, struct drm_display_mode *)' with an expression of type 'int (struct drm_connector *, struct drm_display_mode *)' [-Werror,-Wincompatible-function-pointer-types-strict]
.mode_valid = sti_hdmi_connector_mode_valid,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
->mode_valid() in 'struct drm_connector_helper_funcs' expects a return
type of 'enum drm_mode_status', not 'int'. Adjust the return type of
sti_{dvo,hda,hdmi}_connector_mode_valid() to match the prototype's to
resolve the warning and CFI failure.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: tcpci: fix of node refcount leak in tcpci_register_port()
I got the following report while doing device(mt6370-tcpc) load
test with CONFIG_OF_UNITTEST and CONFIG_OF_DYNAMIC enabled:
OF: ERROR: memory leak, expected refcount 1 instead of 2,
of_node_get()/of_node_put() unbalanced - destroy cset entry:
attach overlay node /i2c/pmic@34/tcpc/connector
The 'fwnode' set in tcpci_parse_config() which is called
in tcpci_register_port(), its node refcount is increased
in device_get_named_child_node(). It needs be put while
exiting, so call fwnode_handle_put() in the error path of
tcpci_register_port() and in tcpci_unregister_port() to
avoid leak.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: xhci-mtk: fix leakage of shared hcd when fail to set wakeup irq
Can not set the @shared_hcd to NULL before decrease the usage count
by usb_put_hcd(), this will cause the shared hcd not released.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: fix double free on tx path.
We see kernel crashes and lockups and KASAN errors related to ax210
firmware crashes. One of the KASAN dumps pointed at the tx path,
and it appears there is indeed a way to double-free an skb.
If iwl_mvm_tx_skb_sta returns non-zero, then the 'skb' sent into the
method will be freed. But, in case where we build TSO skb buffer,
the skb may also be freed in error case. So, return 0 in that particular
error case and do cleanup manually.
