In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jfs: fix array-index-out-of-bounds in dbFindLeaf
Currently while searching for dmtree_t for sufficient free blocks there
is an array out of bounds while getting element in tp->dm_stree. To add
the required check for out of bound we first need to determine the type
of dmtree. Thus added an extra parameter to dbFindLeaf so that the type
of tree can be determined and the required check can be applied.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jfs: fix array-index-out-of-bounds in diAlloc
Currently there is not check against the agno of the iag while
allocating new inodes to avoid fragmentation problem. Added the check
which is required.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: hda: Fix possible null-ptr-deref when assigning a stream
While AudioDSP drivers assign streams exclusively of HOST or LINK type,
nothing blocks a user to attempt to assign a COUPLED stream. As
supplied substream instance may be a stub, what is the case when
code-loading, such scenario ends with null-ptr-deref.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: vcc: Add check for kstrdup() in vcc_probe()
Add check for the return value of kstrdup() and return the error, if it
fails in order to avoid NULL pointer dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix potential deadlock when releasing mids
All release_mid() callers seem to hold a reference of @mid so there is
no need to call kref_put(&mid->refcount, __release_mid) under
@server->mid_lock spinlock. If they don't, then an use-after-free bug
would have occurred anyways.
By getting rid of such spinlock also fixes a potential deadlock as
shown below

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gfs2: Fix slab-use-after-free in gfs2_qd_dealloc
In gfs2_put_super(), whether withdrawn or not, the quota should
be cleaned up by gfs2_quota_cleanup().
Otherwise, struct gfs2_sbd will be freed before gfs2_qd_dealloc (rcu
callback) has run for all gfs2_quota_data objects, resulting in
use-after-free.
Also, gfs2_destroy_threads() and gfs2_quota_cleanup() is already called
by gfs2_make_fs_ro(), so in gfs2_put_super(), after calling
gfs2_make_fs_ro(), there is no need to call them again.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i3c: mipi-i3c-hci: Fix out of bounds access in hci_dma_irq_handler
Do not loop over ring headers in hci_dma_irq_handler() that are not
allocated and enabled in hci_dma_init(). Otherwise out of bounds access
will occur from rings->headers[i] access when i >= number of allocated
ring headers.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: Fix null dereference on suspend
A race condition exists where a synchronous (noqueue) transfer can be
active during a system suspend. This can cause a null pointer
dereference exception to occur when the system resumes.
Example order of events leading to the exception:
1. spi_sync() calls __spi_transfer_message_noqueue() which sets
ctlr->cur_msg
2. Spi transfer begins via spi_transfer_one_message()
3. System is suspended interrupting the transfer context
4. System is resumed
6. spi_controller_resume() calls spi_start_queue() which resets cur_msg
to NULL
7. Spi transfer context resumes and spi_finalize_current_message() is
called which dereferences cur_msg (which is now NULL)
Wait for synchronous transfers to complete before suspending by
acquiring the bus mutex and setting/checking a suspend flag.
