In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: solo6x10: Check for out of bounds chip_id
Clang with CONFIG_UBSAN_SHIFT=y noticed a condition where a signed type
(literal "1" is an "int") could end up being shifted beyond 32 bits,
so instrumentation was added (and due to the double is_tw286x() call
seen via inlining), Clang decides the second one must now be undefined
behavior and elides the rest of the function[1]. This is a known problem
with Clang (that is still being worked on), but we can avoid the entire
problem by actually checking the existing max chip ID, and now there is
no runtime instrumentation added at all since everything is known to be
within bounds.
Additionally use an unsigned value for the shift to remove the
instrumentation even without the explicit bounds checking.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
most: core: fix leak on early registration failure
A recent commit fixed a resource leak on early registration failures but
for some reason left out the first error path which still leaks the
resources associated with the interface.
Fix up also the first error path so that the interface is always
released on errors.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: fix sync handling in amdgpu_dma_buf_move_notify
Invalidating a dmabuf will impact other users of the shared BO.
In the scenario where process A moves the BO, it needs to inform
process B about the move and process B will need to update its
page table.
The commit fixes a synchronisation bug caused by the use of the
ticket: it made amdgpu_vm_handle_moved behave as if updating
the page table immediately was correct but in this case it's not.
An example is the following scenario, with 2 GPUs and glxgears
running on GPU0 and Xorg running on GPU1, on a system where P2P
PCI isn't supported:
glxgears:
export linear buffer from GPU0 and import using GPU1
submit frame rendering to GPU0
submit tiled->linear blit
Xorg:
copy of linear buffer
The sequence of jobs would be:
drm_sched_job_run # GPU0, frame rendering
drm_sched_job_queue # GPU0, blit
drm_sched_job_done # GPU0, frame rendering
drm_sched_job_run # GPU0, blit
move linear buffer for GPU1 access #
amdgpu_dma_buf_move_notify -> update pt # GPU0
It this point the blit job on GPU0 is still running and would
likely produce a page fault.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: processor: Fix NULL-pointer dereference in acpi_processor_errata_piix4()
In acpi_processor_errata_piix4(), the pointer dev is first assigned an IDE
device and then reassigned an ISA device:
dev = pci_get_subsys(..., PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_82371AB, ...);
dev = pci_get_subsys(..., PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_82371AB_0, ...);
If the first lookup succeeds but the second fails, dev becomes NULL. This
leads to a potential null-pointer dereference when dev_dbg() is called:
if (errata.piix4.bmisx)
dev_dbg(&dev->dev, ...);
To prevent this, use two temporary pointers and retrieve each device
independently, avoiding overwriting dev with a possible NULL value.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: remove fake timeout to avoid leak request
Since commit 15f73f5b3e59 ("blk-mq: move failure injection out of
blk_mq_complete_request"), drivers are responsible for calling
blk_should_fake_timeout() at appropriate code paths and opportunities.
However, the dm driver does not implement its own timeout handler and
relies on the timeout handling of its slave devices.
If an io-timeout-fail error is injected to a dm device, the request
will be leaked and never completed, causing tasks to hang indefinitely.
Reproduce:
1. prepare dm which has iscsi slave device
2. inject io-timeout-fail to dm
echo 1 >/sys/class/block/dm-0/io-timeout-fail
echo 100 >/sys/kernel/debug/fail_io_timeout/probability
echo 10 >/sys/kernel/debug/fail_io_timeout/times
3. read/write dm
4. iscsiadm -m node -u

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md raid: fix hang when stopping arrays with metadata through dm-raid
When using device-mapper's dm-raid target, stopping a RAID array can cause
the system to hang under specific conditions.
This occurs when:
- A dm-raid managed device tree is suspended from top to bottom
(the top-level RAID device is suspended first, followed by its
underlying metadata and data devices)
- The top-level RAID device is then removed
Removing the top-level device triggers a hang in the following sequence:
the dm-raid destructor calls md_stop(), which tries to flush the
write-intent bitmap by writing to the metadata sub-devices. However, these
devices are already suspended, making them unable to complete the write-intent
operations and causing an indefinite block.
Fix:
- Prevent bitmap flushing when md_stop() is called from dm-raid
destructor context
and avoid a quiescing/unquescing cycle which could also cause I/O
- Still allow write-intent bitmap flushing when called from dm-raid
suspend context
This ensures that RAID array teardown can complete successfully even when the
underlying devices are in a suspended state.
This second patch uses md_is_rdwr() to distinguish between suspend and
destructor paths as elaborated on above.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: do not ASSERT() when the fs flips RO inside btrfs_repair_io_failure()
[BUG]
There is a bug report that when btrfs hits ENOSPC error in a critical
path, btrfs flips RO (this part is expected, although the ENOSPC bug
still needs to be addressed).
The problem is after the RO flip, if there is a read repair pending, we
can hit the ASSERT() inside btrfs_repair_io_failure() like the following:

[CAUSE]
The cause of -ENOSPC error during the test case btrfs/124 is still
unknown, although it's known that we still have cases where metadata can
be over-committed but can not be fulfilled correctly, thus if we hit
such ENOSPC error inside a critical path, we have no choice but abort
the current transaction.
This will mark the fs read-only.
The problem is inside the btrfs_repair_io_failure() path that we require
the fs not to be mount read-only. This is normally fine, but if we are
doing a read-repair meanwhile the fs flips RO due to a critical error,
we can enter btrfs_repair_io_failure() with super block set to
read-only, thus triggering the above crash.
[FIX]
Just replace the ASSERT() with a proper return if the fs is already
read-only.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/v3d: Set DMA segment size to avoid debug warnings
When using V3D rendering with CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG enabled, the
kernel occasionally reports a segment size mismatch. This is because
'max_seg_size' is not set. The kernel defaults to 64K. setting
'max_seg_size' to the maximum will prevent 'debug_dma_map_sg()'
from complaining about the over-mapping of the V3D segment length.
