In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: gadget: Fix use-after-free Read in usb_udc_uevent()
The syzbot fuzzer found a race between uevent callbacks and gadget
driver unregistration that can cause a use-after-free bug:
---------------------------------------------------------------
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in usb_udc_uevent+0x11f/0x130
drivers/usb/gadget/udc/core.c:1732

dev_uevent+0x290/0x770 drivers/base/core.c:2424
---------------------------------------------------------------
The bug occurs because usb_udc_uevent() dereferences udc->driver but
does so without acquiring the udc_lock mutex, which protects this
field. If the gadget driver is unbound from the udc concurrently with
uevent processing, the driver structure may be accessed after it has
been deallocated.
To prevent the race, we make sure that the routine holds the mutex
around the racing accesses.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix a data-race around bpf_jit_limit.
While reading bpf_jit_limit, it can be changed concurrently via sysctl,
WRITE_ONCE() in __do_proc_doulongvec_minmax(). The size of bpf_jit_limit
is long, so we need to add a paired READ_ONCE() to avoid load-tearing.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Don't redirect packets with invalid pkt_len
Syzbot found an issue [1]: fq_codel_drop() try to drop a flow whitout any
skbs, that is, the flow->head is null.
The root cause, as the [2] says, is because that bpf_prog_test_run_skb()
run a bpf prog which redirects empty skbs.
So we should determine whether the length of the packet modified by bpf
prog or others like bpf_prog_test is valid before forwarding it directly.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: iforce - wake up after clearing IFORCE_XMIT_RUNNING flag
syzbot is reporting hung task at __input_unregister_device() [1], for
iforce_close() waiting at wait_event_interruptible() with dev->mutex held
is blocking input_disconnect_device() from __input_unregister_device().
It seems that the cause is simply that commit c2b27ef672992a20 ("Input:
iforce - wait for command completion when closing the device") forgot to
call wake_up() after clear_bit().
Fix this problem by introducing a helper that calls clear_bit() followed
by wake_up_all().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kcm: fix strp_init() order and cleanup
strp_init() is called just a few lines above this csk->sk_user_data
check, it also initializes strp->work etc., therefore, it is
unnecessary to call strp_done() to cancel the freshly initialized
work.
And if sk_user_data is already used by KCM, psock->strp should not be
touched, particularly strp->work state, so we need to move strp_init()
after the csk->sk_user_data check.
This also makes a lockdep warning reported by syzbot go away.

The reason for the warning is clear enough; the driver sends an
unusual read request on endpoint 0 but does not set the USB_DIR_IN bit
in the bRequestType field.
More importantly, the whole situation can be avoided and the driver
simplified by converting it over to the relatively new
usb_control_msg_recv() and usb_control_msg_send() routines. That's
what this fix does.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: fix small mempool leak in SMB2_negotiate()
In some cases of failure (dialect mismatches) in SMB2_negotiate(), after
the request is sent, the checks would return -EIO when they should be
rather setting rc = -EIO and jumping to neg_exit to free the response
buffer from mempool.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: pcm: Fix race of buffer access at PCM OSS layer
The PCM OSS layer tries to clear the buffer with the silence data at
initialization (or reconfiguration) of a stream with the explicit call
of snd_pcm_format_set_silence() with runtime->dma_area. But this may
lead to a UAF because the accessed runtime->dma_area might be freed
concurrently, as it's performed outside the PCM ops.
For avoiding it, move the code into the PCM core and perform it inside
the buffer access lock, so that it won't be changed during the
operation.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: algif_hash - fix double free in hash_accept
If accept(2) is called on socket type algif_hash with
MSG_MORE flag set and crypto_ahash_import fails,
sk2 is freed. However, it is also freed in af_alg_release,
leading to slab-use-after-free error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: endpoint: pci-epf-test: Fix double free that causes kernel to oops
Fix a kernel oops found while testing the stm32_pcie Endpoint driver
with handling of PERST# deassertion:
During EP initialization, pci_epf_test_alloc_space() allocates all BARs,
which are further freed if epc_set_bar() fails (for instance, due to no
free inbound window).
However, when pci_epc_set_bar() fails, the error path:
pci_epc_set_bar() ->
pci_epf_free_space()
does not clear the previous assignment to epf_test->reg[bar].
Then, if the host reboots, the PERST# deassertion restarts the BAR
allocation sequence with the same allocation failure (no free inbound
window), creating a double free situation since epf_test->reg[bar] was
deallocated and is still non-NULL.
Thus, make sure that pci_epf_alloc_space() and pci_epf_free_space()
invocations are symmetric, and as such, set epf_test->reg[bar] to NULL
when memory is freed.
