cifs: potential buffer overflow in handling symlinks
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cifs: potential buffer overflow in handling symlinks
Smatch printed a warning:
arch/x86/crypto/poly1305_glue.c:198 poly1305_update_arch() error:
__memcpy() 'dctx->buf' too small (16 vs u32max)
It's caused because Smatch marks 'link_len' as untrusted since it comes
from sscanf(). Add a check to ensure that 'link_len' is not larger than
the size of the 'link_str' buffer.
drm/amdkfd: Check for potential null return of kmalloc_array()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: Check for potential null return of kmalloc_array()
As the kmalloc_array() may return null, the 'event_waiters[i].wait' would lead to null-pointer dereference.
Therefore, it is better to check the return value of kmalloc_array() to avoid this confusion.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: target: tcmu: Fix possible page UAF
tcmu_try_get_data_page() looks up pages under cmdr_lock, but it does not
take refcount properly and just returns page pointer. When
tcmu_try_get_data_page() returns, the returned page may have been freed by
tcmu_blocks_release().
We need to get_page() under cmdr_lock to avoid concurrent
tcmu_blocks_release().

jffs2: fix use-after-free in jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
jffs2: fix use-after-free in jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem
When we mount a jffs2 image, assume that the first few blocks of
the image are normal and contain at least one xattr-related inode,
but the next block is abnormal. As a result, an error is returned
in jffs2_scan_eraseblock(). jffs2_clear_xattr_subsystem() is then
called in jffs2_build_filesystem() and then again in
jffs2_do_fill_super().
Finally we can observe the following report:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

given the 'static' scope of nvidia_setup_i2c_bus() it looks
like that can't happen after examiniing the call sites.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Do a sanity check on pixclock value to avoid divide by zero.
If the pixclock value is zero, the cirrusfb driver will round up
pixclock to get the derived frequency as close to maxclock as
possible.

ath5k: fix OOB in ath5k_eeprom_read_pcal_info_5111
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ath5k: fix OOB in ath5k_eeprom_read_pcal_info_5111
The bug was found during fuzzing. Stacktrace locates it in
ath5k_eeprom_convert_pcal_info_5111.
When none of the curve is selected in the loop, idx can go
up to AR5K_EEPROM_N_PD_CURVES. The line makes pd out of bound.
pd = &chinfo[pier].pd_curves[idx];
There are many OOB writes using pd later in the code. So I
added a sanity check for idx. Checks for other loops involving
AR5K_EEPROM_N_PD_CURVES are not needed as the loop index is not
used outside the loops.
The patch is NOT tested with real device.
