In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
video: fbdev: vt8623fb: Check the size of screen before memset_io()
In the function vt8623fb_set_par(), the value of 'screen_size' is
calculated by the user input. If the user provides the improper value,
the value of 'screen_size' may larger than 'info->screen_size', which
may cause the following bug:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
video: fbdev: arkfb: Fix a divide-by-zero bug in ark_set_pixclock()
Since the user can control the arguments of the ioctl() from the user
space, under special arguments that may result in a divide-by-zero bug
in:
drivers/video/fbdev/arkfb.c:784: ark_set_pixclock(info, (hdiv * info->var.pixclock) / hmul);
with hdiv=1, pixclock=1 and hmul=2 you end up with (1*1)/2 = (int) 0.
and then in:
drivers/video/fbdev/arkfb.c:504: rv = dac_set_freq(par->dac, 0, 1000000000 / pixclock);
we'll get a division-by-zero.
The following log can reveal it:
divide error: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched, cpuset: Fix dl_cpu_busy() panic due to empty cs->cpus_allowed
With cgroup v2, the cpuset's cpus_allowed mask can be empty indicating
that the cpuset will just use the effective CPUs of its parent. So
cpuset_can_attach() can call task_can_attach() with an empty mask.
This can lead to cpumask_any_and() returns nr_cpu_ids causing the call
to dl_bw_of() to crash due to percpu value access of an out of bound
CPU value. For example:
[80468.182258] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffff8b6648b0
:
[80468.191019] RIP: 0010:dl_cpu_busy+0x30/0x2b0

[80468.224287] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae
Fix that by using effective_cpus instead. For cgroup v1, effective_cpus
is the same as cpus_allowed. For v2, effective_cpus is the real cpumask
to be used by tasks within the cpuset anyway.
Also update task_can_attach()'s 2nd argument name to cs_effective_cpus to
reflect the change. In addition, a check is added to task_can_attach()
to guard against the possibility that cpumask_any_and() may return a
value >= nr_cpu_ids.

dmsetup load pool --table "0 20971520 thin-pool /dev/sda /dev/sdb 128 0 0"
If a metadata commit fails, the transaction will be aborted and the
metadata space maps will be destroyed. If a DM table reload then
happens for this failed thin-pool, a use-after-free will occur in
dm_sm_register_threshold_callback (called from
dm_pool_register_metadata_threshold).
Fix this by in dm_pool_register_metadata_threshold() by returning the
-EINVAL error if the thin-pool is in fail mode. Also fail pool_ctr()
with a new error message: "Error registering metadata threshold".

after converting the type of the first argument (@nr, bit number)
of arch_test_bit() from `long` to `unsigned long`[0].
Under certain conditions (for example, when ACPI NUMA is disabled
via command line), pxm_to_node() can return %NUMA_NO_NODE (-1).
It is valid 'magic' number of NUMA node, but not valid bit number
to use in bitops.
node_online() eventually descends to test_bit() without checking
for the input, assuming it's on caller side (which might be good
for perf-critical tasks). There, -1 becomes %ULONG_MAX which leads
to an insane array index when calculating bit position in memory.
For now, add an explicit check for @node being not %NUMA_NO_NODE
before calling test_bit(). The actual logics didn't change here
at all.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spmi: trace: fix stack-out-of-bound access in SPMI tracing functions
trace_spmi_write_begin() and trace_spmi_read_end() both call
memcpy() with a length of "len + 1". This leads to one extra
byte being read beyond the end of the specified buffer. Fix
this out-of-bound memory access by using a length of "len"
instead.
Here is a KASAN log showing the issue:
