| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_ffa: Check if ffa_driver remove is present before executing
Currently ffa_drv->remove() is called unconditionally from
ffa_device_remove(). Since the driver registration doesn't check for it
and allows it to be registered without .remove callback, we need to check
for the presence of it before executing it from ffa_device_remove() to
above a NULL pointer dereference like the one below:

fs/ntfs3: Fix OOB read in indx_insert_into_buffer
Syzbot reported a OOB read bug:
BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in indx_insert_into_buffer+0xaa3/0x13b0

If the member struct INDEX_BUFFER *index of struct indx_node is
incorrect, that is, the value of __le32 used is greater than the value
of __le32 total in struct INDEX_HDR. Therefore, OOB read occurs when
memmove is called in indx_insert_into_buffer().
Fix this by adding a check in hdr_find_e(). |

- set_page_writeback() [2st writeback]
This problem was introduced by the previous commit 7377e853967b ("f2fs:
compress: fix potential deadlock of compress file"). All pagelocks were
released in f2fs_write_raw_pages(), but whether the page was
in the writeback state was ignored in the subsequent writing process.
Let's fix it by waiting for the page to writeback before writing. |

fs/ntfs3: Fix memory leak if ntfs_read_mft failed
Label ATTR_ROOT in ntfs_read_mft() sets is_root = true and
ni->ni_flags |= NI_FLAG_DIR, then next attr will goto label ATTR_ALLOC
and alloc ni->dir.alloc_run. However two states are not always
consistent and can make memory leak.
1) attr_name in ATTR_ROOT does not fit the condition it will set
is_root = true but NI_FLAG_DIR is not set.
2) next attr_name in ATTR_ALLOC fits the condition and alloc
ni->dir.alloc_run
3) in cleanup function ni_clear(), when NI_FLAG_DIR is set, it frees
ni->dir.alloc_run, otherwise it frees ni->file.run
4) because NI_FLAG_DIR is not set in this case, ni->dir.alloc_run is
leaked as kmemleak reported:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: s390: pv: fix index value of replaced ASCE
The index field of the struct page corresponding to a guest ASCE should
be 0. When replacing the ASCE in s390_replace_asce(), the index of the
new ASCE should also be set to 0.
Having the wrong index might lead to the wrong addresses being passed
around when notifying pte invalidations, and eventually to validity
intercepts (VM crash) if the prefix gets unmapped and the notifier gets
called with the wrong address. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soundwire: fix enumeration completion
The soundwire subsystem uses two completion structures that allow
drivers to wait for soundwire device to become enumerated on the bus and
initialised by their drivers, respectively.
The code implementing the signalling is currently broken as it does not
signal all current and future waiters and also uses the wrong
reinitialisation function, which can potentially lead to memory
corruption if there are still waiters on the queue.
Not signalling future waiters specifically breaks sound card probe
deferrals as codec drivers can not tell that the soundwire device is
already attached when being reprobed. Some codec runtime PM
implementations suffer from similar problems as waiting for enumeration
during resume can also timeout despite the device already having been
enumerated. |

In kcm_sendmsg(), kcm_tx_msg(head)->last_skb is used as a cursor to append
newly allocated skbs to 'head'. If some bytes are copied, an error occurred,
and jumped to out_error label, 'last_skb' is left unmodified. A later
kcm_sendmsg() will use an obsoleted 'last_skb' reference, corrupting the
'head' frag_list and causing the leak.
This patch fixes this issue by properly updating the last allocated skb in
'last_skb'. |

btrfs: fix incorrect splitting in btrfs_drop_extent_map_range
In production we were seeing a variety of WARN_ON()'s in the extent_map
code, specifically in btrfs_drop_extent_map_range() when we have to call
add_extent_mapping() for our second split.
Consider the following extent map layout
PINNED
[0 16K) [32K, 48K)
and then we call btrfs_drop_extent_map_range for [0, 36K), with
skip_pinned == true. The initial loop will have
start = 0
end = 36K
len = 36K
we will find the [0, 16k) extent, but since we are pinned we will skip
it, which has this code
start = em_end;
if (end != (u64)-1)
len = start + len - em_end;
em_end here is 16K, so now the values are
start = 16K
len = 16K + 36K - 16K = 36K
len should instead be 20K. This is a problem when we find the next
extent at [32K, 48K), we need to split this extent to leave [36K, 48k),
however the code for the split looks like this
split->start = start + len;
split->len = em_end - (start + len);
In this case we have
em_end = 48K
split->start = 16K + 36K // this should be 16K + 20K
split->len = 48K - (16K + 36K) // this overflows as 16K + 36K is 52K
and now we have an invalid extent_map in the tree that potentially
overlaps other entries in the extent map. Even in the non-overlapping
case we will have split->start set improperly, which will cause problems
with any block related calculations.
We don't actually need len in this loop, we can simply use end as our
end point, and only adjust start up when we find a pinned extent we need
to skip.
Adjust the logic to do this, which keeps us from inserting an invalid
extent map.
We only skip_pinned in the relocation case, so this is relatively rare,
except in the case where you are running relocation a lot, which can
happen with auto relocation on. |

wifi: rt2x00: Fix memory leak when handling surveys
When removing a rt2x00 device, its associated channel surveys
are not freed, causing a memory leak observable with kmemleak:

Fix this by freeing the channel surveys on device removal.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: visconti: Fix memory leak in visconti_register_pll()
@pll->rate_table has allocated memory by kmemdup(), if clk_hw_register()
fails, it should be freed, otherwise it will cause memory leak issue,
this patch fixes it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: akcipher - default implementation for setting a private key
Changes from v1:
* removed the default implementation from set_pub_key: it is assumed that
an implementation must always have this callback defined as there are
no use case for an algorithm, which doesn't need a public key
Many akcipher implementations (like ECDSA) support only signature
verifications, so they don't have all callbacks defined.
Commit 78a0324f4a53 ("crypto: akcipher - default implementations for
request callbacks") introduced default callbacks for sign/verify
operations, which just return an error code.
However, these are not enough, because before calling sign the caller would
likely call set_priv_key first on the instantiated transform (as the
in-kernel testmgr does). This function does not have a default stub, so the
kernel crashes, when trying to set a private key on an akcipher, which
doesn't support signature generation.
I've noticed this, when trying to add a KAT vector for ECDSA signature to
the testmgr.
With this patch the testmgr returns an error in dmesg (as it should)
instead of crashing the kernel NULL ptr dereference. |

staging: rtl8192u: Fix use after free in ieee80211_rx()
We cannot dereference the "skb" pointer after calling
ieee80211_monitor_rx(), because it is a use after free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nvmem: core: Fix memleak in nvmem_register()
dev_set_name will alloc memory for nvmem->dev.kobj.name in
nvmem_register, when nvmem_validate_keepouts failed, nvmem's
memory will be freed and return, but nobody will free memory
for nvmem->dev.kobj.name, there will be memleak, so moving
nvmem_validate_keepouts() after device_register() and let
the device core deal with cleaning name in error cases. |
