In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
coresight: holding cscfg_csdev_lock while removing cscfg from csdev
There'll be possible race scenario for coresight config:
CPU0 CPU1
(perf enable) load module
cscfg_load_config_sets()
activate config. // sysfs
(sys_active_cnt == 1)
...
cscfg_csdev_enable_active_config()
lock(csdev->cscfg_csdev_lock)
deactivate config // sysfs
(sys_activec_cnt == 0)
cscfg_unload_config_sets()
<iterating config_csdev_list> cscfg_remove_owned_csdev_configs()
// here load config activate by CPU1
unlock(csdev->cscfg_csdev_lock)
iterating config_csdev_list could be raced with config_csdev_list's
entry delete.
To resolve this race , hold csdev->cscfg_csdev_lock() while
cscfg_remove_owned_csdev_configs()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: Fix potential null-ptr-deref in mlb_usio_probe()
devm_ioremap() can return NULL on error. Currently, mlb_usio_probe()
does not check for this case, which could result in a NULL pointer
dereference.
Add NULL check after devm_ioremap() to prevent this issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gve: add missing NULL check for gve_alloc_pending_packet() in TX DQO
gve_alloc_pending_packet() can return NULL, but gve_tx_add_skb_dqo()
did not check for this case before dereferencing the returned pointer.
Add a missing NULL check to prevent a potential NULL pointer
dereference when allocation fails.
This improves robustness in low-memory scenarios.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: stmmac: make sure that ptp_rate is not 0 before configuring EST
If the ptp_rate recorded earlier in the driver happens to be 0, this
bogus value will propagate up to EST configuration, where it will
trigger a division by 0.
Prevent this division by 0 by adding the corresponding check and error
code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: stmmac: make sure that ptp_rate is not 0 before configuring timestamping
The stmmac platform drivers that do not open-code the clk_ptp_rate value
after having retrieved the default one from the device-tree can end up
with 0 in clk_ptp_rate (as clk_get_rate can return 0). It will
eventually propagate up to PTP initialization when bringing up the
interface, leading to a divide by 0:
Division by zero in kernel.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: fix Tx scheduler error handling in XDP callback
When the XDP program is loaded, the XDP callback adds new Tx queues.
This means that the callback must update the Tx scheduler with the new
queue number. In the event of a Tx scheduler failure, the XDP callback
should also fail and roll back any changes previously made for XDP
preparation.
The previous implementation had a bug that not all changes made by the
XDP callback were rolled back. This caused the crash with the following
call trace:

Fix this by performing the missing unmapping of XDP queues from
q_vectors and setting the XDP rings pointer back to NULL after all those
queues are released.
Also, add an immediate exit from the XDP callback in case of ring
preparation failure.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net_sched: sch_sfq: fix a potential crash on gso_skb handling
SFQ has an assumption of always being able to queue at least one packet.
However, after the blamed commit, sch->q.len can be inflated by packets
in sch->gso_skb, and an enqueue() on an empty SFQ qdisc can be followed
by an immediate drop.
Fix sfq_drop() to properly clear q->tail in this situation.
