| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/sysfb: Do not dereference NULL pointer in plane reset
The plane state in __drm_gem_reset_shadow_plane() can be NULL. Do not
deref that pointer, but forward NULL to the other plane-reset helpers.
Clears plane->state to NULL.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rapidio: rio: fix possible name leak in rio_register_mport()
If device_register() returns error, the name allocated by dev_set_name()
need be freed. It should use put_device() to give up the reference in the
error path, so that the name can be freed in kobject_cleanup(), and
list_del() is called to delete the port from rio_mports. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: Fix the error length of VALIDATE_NEGOTIATE_INFO message
Commit d5c7076b772a ("smb3: add smb3.1.1 to default dialect list")
extend the dialects from 3 to 4, but forget to decrease the extended
length when specific the dialect, then the message length is larger
than expected.
This maybe leak some info through network because not initialize the
message body.
After apply this patch, the VALIDATE_NEGOTIATE_INFO message length is
reduced from 28 bytes to 26 bytes. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/kvm: Force legacy PCI hole to UC when overriding MTRRs for TDX/SNP
When running as an SNP or TDX guest under KVM, force the legacy PCI hole,
i.e. memory between Top of Lower Usable DRAM and 4GiB, to be mapped as UC
via a forced variable MTRR range.
In most KVM-based setups, legacy devices such as the HPET and TPM are
enumerated via ACPI. ACPI enumeration includes a Memory32Fixed entry, and
optionally a SystemMemory descriptor for an OperationRegion, e.g. if the
device needs to be accessed via a Control Method.
If a SystemMemory entry is present, then the kernel's ACPI driver will
auto-ioremap the region so that it can be accessed at will. However, the
ACPI spec doesn't provide a way to enumerate the memory type of
SystemMemory regions, i.e. there's no way to tell software that a region
must be mapped as UC vs. WB, etc. As a result, Linux's ACPI driver always
maps SystemMemory regions using ioremap_cache(), i.e. as WB on x86.
The dedicated device drivers however, e.g. the HPET driver and TPM driver,
want to map their associated memory as UC or WC, as accessing PCI devices
using WB is unsupported.
On bare metal and non-CoCO, the conflicting requirements "work" as firmware
configures the PCI hole (and other device memory) to be UC in the MTRRs.
So even though the ACPI mappings request WB, they are forced to UC- in the
kernel's tracking due to the kernel properly handling the MTRR overrides,
and thus are compatible with the drivers' requested WC/UC-.
With force WB MTRRs on SNP and TDX guests, the ACPI mappings get their
requested WB if the ACPI mappings are established before the dedicated
driver code attempts to initialize the device. E.g. if acpi_init()
runs before the corresponding device driver is probed, ACPI's WB mapping
will "win", and result in the driver's ioremap() failing because the
existing WB mapping isn't compatible with the requested WC/UC-.
E.g. when a TPM is emulated by the hypervisor (ignoring the security
implications of relying on what is allegedly an untrusted entity to store
measurements), the TPM driver will request UC and fail:
[ 1.730459] ioremap error for 0xfed40000-0xfed45000, requested 0x2, got 0x0
[ 1.732780] tpm_tis MSFT0101:00: probe with driver tpm_tis failed with error -12
Note, the '0x2' and '0x0' values refer to "enum page_cache_mode", not x86's
memtypes (which frustratingly are an almost pure inversion; 2 == WB, 0 == UC).
E.g. tracing mapping requests for TPM TIS yields:
Mapping TPM TIS with req_type = 0

wifi: ath9k: Fix use-after-free in ath9k_hif_usb_disconnect()
This patch fixes a use-after-free in ath9k that occurs in
ath9k_hif_usb_disconnect() when ath9k_destroy_wmi() is trying to access
'drv_priv' that has already been freed by ieee80211_free_hw(), called by
ath9k_htc_hw_deinit(). The patch moves ath9k_destroy_wmi() before
ieee80211_free_hw(). Note that urbs from the driver should be killed
before freeing 'wmi' with ath9k_destroy_wmi() as their callbacks will
access 'wmi'.

mmc: toshsd: fix return value check of mmc_add_host()
mmc_add_host() may return error, if we ignore its return value, the memory
that allocated in mmc_alloc_host() will be leaked and it will lead a kernel
crash because of deleting not added device in the remove path.
So fix this by checking the return value and goto error path which will call
mmc_free_host(), besides, free_irq() also needs be called. |

regulator: core: fix unbalanced of node refcount in regulator_dev_lookup()
I got the the following report:
OF: ERROR: memory leak, expected refcount 1 instead of 2,
of_node_get()/of_node_put() unbalanced - destroy cset entry:
attach overlay node /i2c/pmic@62/regulators/exten
In of_get_regulator(), the node is returned from of_parse_phandle()
with refcount incremented, after using it, of_node_put() need be called. |

remoteproc: qcom: q6v5: Fix potential null-ptr-deref in q6v5_wcss_init_mmio()
q6v5_wcss_init_mmio() will call platform_get_resource_byname() that may
fail and return NULL. devm_ioremap() will use res->start as input, which
may causes null-ptr-deref. Check the ret value of
platform_get_resource_byname() to avoid the null-ptr-deref. |

refscale: Fix uninitalized use of wait_queue_head_t
Running the refscale test occasionally crashes the kernel with the
following error:

The likely cause is that init_waitqueue_head() is called after the call to
the torture_create_kthread() function that creates the ref_scale_reader
kthread. Although this init_waitqueue_head() call will very likely
complete before this kthread is created and starts running, it is
possible that the calling kthread will be delayed between the calls to
torture_create_kthread() and init_waitqueue_head(). In this case, the
new kthread will use the waitqueue head before it is properly initialized,
which is not good for the kernel's health and well-being.
The above crash happened here:
static inline void __add_wait_queue(...)
{
:
if (!(wq->flags & WQ_FLAG_PRIORITY)) <=== Crash here
The offset of flags from list_head entry in wait_queue_entry is
-0x18. If reader_tasks[i].wq.head.next is NULL as allocated reader_task
structure is zero initialized, the instruction will try to access address
0xffffffffffffffe8, which is exactly the fault address listed above.
This commit therefore invokes init_waitqueue_head() before creating
the kthread. |

powerpc/powernv/sriov: perform null check on iov before dereferencing iov
Currently pointer iov is being dereferenced before the null check of iov
which can lead to null pointer dereference errors. Fix this by moving the
iov null check before the dereferencing.
Detected using cppcheck static analysis:
linux/arch/powerpc/platforms/powernv/pci-sriov.c:597:12: warning: Either
the condition '!iov' is redundant or there is possible null pointer
dereference: iov. [nullPointerRedundantCheck]
