In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/slub: fix to return errno if kmalloc() fails
In create_unique_id(), kmalloc(, GFP_KERNEL) can fail due to
out-of-memory, if it fails, return errno correctly rather than
triggering panic via BUG_ON();
kernel BUG at mm/slub.c:5893!

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/dasd: fix Oops in dasd_alias_get_start_dev due to missing pavgroup
Fix Oops in dasd_alias_get_start_dev() function caused by the pavgroup
pointer being NULL.
The pavgroup pointer is checked on the entrance of the function but
without the lcu->lock being held. Therefore there is a race window
between dasd_alias_get_start_dev() and _lcu_update() which sets
pavgroup to NULL with the lcu->lock held.
Fix by checking the pavgroup pointer with lcu->lock held.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: fix potential UAF in cifs_debug_files_proc_show()
Skip sessions that are being teared down (status == SES_EXITING) to
avoid UAF.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Reset IH OVERFLOW_CLEAR bit
Allows us to detect subsequent IH ring buffer overflows as well.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ipset: fix performance regression in swap operation
The patch "netfilter: ipset: fix race condition between swap/destroy
and kernel side add/del/test", commit 28628fa9 fixes a race condition.
But the synchronize_rcu() added to the swap function unnecessarily slows
it down: it can safely be moved to destroy and use call_rcu() instead.
Eric Dumazet pointed out that simply calling the destroy functions as
rcu callback does not work: sets with timeout use garbage collectors
which need cancelling at destroy which can wait. Therefore the destroy
functions are split into two: cancelling garbage collectors safely at
executing the command received by netlink and moving the remaining
part only into the rcu callback.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: rfcomm: Fix null-ptr-deref in rfcomm_check_security
During our fuzz testing of the connection and disconnection process at the
RFCOMM layer, we discovered this bug. By comparing the packets from a
normal connection and disconnection process with the testcase that
triggered a KASAN report. We analyzed the cause of this bug as follows:
1. In the packets captured during a normal connection, the host sends a
`Read Encryption Key Size` type of `HCI_CMD` packet
(Command Opcode: 0x1408) to the controller to inquire the length of
encryption key.After receiving this packet, the controller immediately
replies with a Command Completepacket (Event Code: 0x0e) to return the
Encryption Key Size.
2. In our fuzz test case, the timing of the controller's response to this
packet was delayed to an unexpected point: after the RFCOMM and L2CAP
layers had disconnected but before the HCI layer had disconnected.
3. After receiving the Encryption Key Size Response at the time described
in point 2, the host still called the rfcomm_check_security function.
However, by this time `struct l2cap_conn *conn = l2cap_pi(sk)->chan->conn;`
had already been released, and when the function executed
`return hci_conn_security(conn->hcon, d->sec_level, auth_type, d->out);`,
specifically when accessing `conn->hcon`, a null-ptr-deref error occurred.
To fix this bug, check if `sk->sk_state` is BT_CLOSED before calling
rfcomm_recv_frame in rfcomm_process_rx.
