In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
MIPS: Don't crash in stack_top() for tasks without ABI or vDSO
Not all tasks have an ABI associated or vDSO mapped,
for example kthreads never do.
If such a task ever ends up calling stack_top(), it will derefence the
NULL ABI pointer and crash.
This can for example happen when using kunit:
mips_stack_top+0x28/0xc0
arch_pick_mmap_layout+0x190/0x220
kunit_vm_mmap_init+0xf8/0x138
__kunit_add_resource+0x40/0xa8
kunit_vm_mmap+0x88/0xd8
usercopy_test_init+0xb8/0x240
kunit_try_run_case+0x5c/0x1a8
kunit_generic_run_threadfn_adapter+0x28/0x50
kthread+0x118/0x240
ret_from_kernel_thread+0x14/0x1c
Only dereference the ABI point if it is set.
The GIC page is also included as it is specific to the vDSO.
Also move the randomization adjustment into the same conditional.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: bfa: Double-free fix
When the bfad_im_probe() function fails during initialization, the memory
pointed to by bfad->im is freed without setting bfad->im to NULL.
Subsequently, during driver uninstallation, when the state machine enters
the bfad_sm_stopping state and calls the bfad_im_probe_undo() function,
it attempts to free the memory pointed to by bfad->im again, thereby
triggering a double-free vulnerability.
Set bfad->im to NULL if probing fails.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: libiscsi: Initialize iscsi_conn->dd_data only if memory is allocated
In case of an ib_fast_reg_mr allocation failure during iSER setup, the
machine hits a panic because iscsi_conn->dd_data is initialized
unconditionally, even when no memory is allocated (dd_size == 0). This
leads invalid pointer dereference during connection teardown.
Fix by setting iscsi_conn->dd_data only if memory is actually allocated.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: do not BUG when INLINE_DATA_FL lacks system.data xattr
A syzbot fuzzed image triggered a BUG_ON in ext4_update_inline_data()
when an inode had the INLINE_DATA_FL flag set but was missing the
system.data extended attribute.
Since this can happen due to a maiciouly fuzzed file system, we
shouldn't BUG, but rather, report it as a corrupted file system.
Add similar replacements of BUG_ON with EXT4_ERROR_INODE() ii
ext4_create_inline_data() and ext4_inline_data_truncate().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pNFS: Fix uninited ptr deref in block/scsi layout
The error occurs on the third attempt to encode extents. When function
ext_tree_prepare_commit() reallocates a larger buffer to retry encoding
extents, the "layoutupdate_pages" page array is initialized only after the
retry loop. But ext_tree_free_commitdata() is called on every iteration
and tries to put pages in the array, thus dereferencing uninitialized
pointers.
An additional problem is that there is no limit on the maximum possible
buffer_size. When there are too many extents, the client may create a
layoutcommit that is larger than the maximum possible RPC size accepted
by the server.
During testing, we observed two typical scenarios. First, one memory page
for extents is enough when we work with small files, append data to the
end of the file, or preallocate extents before writing. But when we fill
a new large file without preallocating, the number of extents can be huge,
and counting the number of written extents in ext_tree_encode_commit()
does not help much. Since this number increases even more between
unlocking and locking of ext_tree, the reallocated buffer may not be
large enough again and again.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: dvb-frontends: w7090p: fix null-ptr-deref in w7090p_tuner_write_serpar and w7090p_tuner_read_serpar
In w7090p_tuner_write_serpar, msg is controlled by user. When msg[0].buf is null and msg[0].len is zero, former checks on msg[0].buf would be passed. If accessing msg[0].buf[2] without sanity check, null pointer deref would happen. We add
check on msg[0].len to prevent crash.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: lpfc: Check for hdwq null ptr when cleaning up lpfc_vport structure
If a call to lpfc_sli4_read_rev() from lpfc_sli4_hba_setup() fails, the
resultant cleanup routine lpfc_sli4_vport_delete_fcp_xri_aborted() may
occur before sli4_hba.hdwqs are allocated. This may result in a null
pointer dereference when attempting to take the abts_io_buf_list_lock for
the first hardware queue. Fix by adding a null ptr check on
phba->sli4_hba.hdwq and early return because this situation means there
must have been an error during port initialization.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hv_netvsc: Fix panic during namespace deletion with VF
The existing code move the VF NIC to new namespace when NETDEV_REGISTER is
received on netvsc NIC. During deletion of the namespace,
default_device_exit_batch() >> default_device_exit_net() is called. When
netvsc NIC is moved back and registered to the default namespace, it
automatically brings VF NIC back to the default namespace. This will cause
the default_device_exit_net() >> for_each_netdev_safe loop unable to detect
the list end, and hit NULL ptr:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: ets: use old 'nbands' while purging unused classes
Shuang reported sch_ets test-case [1] crashing in ets_class_qlen_notify()
after recent changes from Lion [2]. The problem is: in ets_qdisc_change()
we purge unused DWRR queues; the value of 'q->nbands' is the new one, and
the cleanup should be done with the old one. The problem is here since my
first attempts to fix ets_qdisc_change(), but it surfaced again after the
recent qdisc len accounting fixes. Fix it purging idle DWRR queues before
assigning a new value of 'q->nbands', so that all purge operations find a
consistent configuration:
- old 'q->nbands' because it's needed by ets_class_find()
- old 'q->nstrict' because it's needed by ets_class_is_strict()
