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:

soc: qcom: rpmpd: Check for null return of devm_kcalloc
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
soc: qcom: rpmpd: Check for null return of devm_kcalloc
Because of the possible failure of the allocation, data->domains might
be NULL pointer and will cause the dereference of the NULL pointer
later.
Therefore, it might be better to check it and directly return -ENOMEM
without releasing data manually if fails, because the comment of the
devm_kmalloc() says "Memory allocated with this function is
automatically freed on driver detach.".
ASoC: soc-compress: prevent the potentially use of null pointer
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

There is one call trace that snd_soc_register_card()
->snd_soc_bind_card()->soc_init_pcm_runtime()
->snd_soc_dai_compress_new()->snd_soc_new_compress().
In the trace the 'codec_dai' transfers from card->dai_link,
and we can see from the snd_soc_add_pcm_runtime() in
snd_soc_bind_card() that, if value of card->dai_link->num_codecs
is 0, then 'codec_dai' could be null pointer caused
by index out of bound in 'asoc_rtd_to_codec(rtd, 0)'.
And snd_soc_register_card() is called by various platforms.
Therefore, it is be
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
udmabuf: validate ubuf->pagecount
Syzbot has reported GPF in sg_alloc_append_table_from_pages(). The
problem was in ubuf->pages == ZERO_PTR.
ubuf->pagecount is calculated from arguments passed from user-space. If
user creates udmabuf with list.size == 0 then ubuf->pagecount will be
also equal to zero; it causes kmalloc_array() to return ZERO_PTR.
Fix it by validating ubuf->pagecount before passing it to
kmalloc_array().

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.

usb: cdc-acm: Check control transfer buffer size before access
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: cdc-acm: Check control transfer buffer size before access
If the first fragment is shorter than struct usb_cdc_notification, we can't
calculate an expected_size. Log an error and discard the notification
instead of reading lengths from memory outside the received data, which can
lead to memory corruption when the expected_size decreases between
fragments, causing `expected_size - acm->nb_index` to wrap.
This issue has been present since the beginning of git history; however,
it only leads to memory corruption since commit ea2583529cd1

netem: Update sch->q.qlen before qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netem: Update sch->q.qlen before qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog()
qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog() notifies parent qdisc only if child
qdisc becomes empty, therefore we need to reduce the backlog of the
child qdisc before calling it. Otherwise it would miss the opportunity
to call cops->qlen_notify(), in the case of DRR, it resulted in UAF
since DRR uses ->qlen_notify() to maintain its active list.
pfifo_tail_enqueue: Drop new packet when sch->limit == 0
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pfifo_tail_enqueue: Drop new packet when sch->limit == 0
Expected behaviour:
In case we reach scheduler's limit, pfifo_tail_enqueue() will drop a
packet in scheduler's queue and decrease scheduler's qlen by one.
Then, pfifo_tail_enqueue() enqueue new packet and increase
scheduler's qlen by one. Finally, pfifo_tail_enqueue() return
`NET_XMIT_CN` status code.
Weird behaviour:
In case we set `sch->limit == 0` and trigger pfifo_tail_enqueue() on a
scheduler that has no packet, the 'drop a packet' step will do nothing.
This means the scheduler's qlen still has value equal 0.
