In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: hns3: don't auto enable misc vector
Currently, there is a time window between misc irq enabled
and service task inited. If an interrupte is reported at
this time, it will cause warning like below:

So don't auto enable misc vector when request irq..
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvlan: Fix use-after-free in ipvlan_get_iflink().
syzbot presented an use-after-free report [0] regarding ipvlan and
linkwatch.
ipvlan does not hold a refcnt of the lower device unlike vlan and
macvlan.
If the linkwatch work is triggered for the ipvlan dev, the lower dev
might have already been freed, resulting in UAF of ipvlan->phy_dev in
ipvlan_get_iflink().
We can delay the lower dev unregistration like vlan and macvlan by
holding the lower dev's refcnt in dev->netdev_ops->ndo_init() and
releasing it in dev->priv_destructor().
Jakub pointed out calling .ndo_XXX after unregister_netdevice() has
returned is error prone and suggested [1] addressing this UAF in the
core by taking commit 750e51603395 ("net: avoid potential UAF in
default_operstate()") further.
Let's assume unregistering devices DOWN and use RCU protection in
default_operstate() not to race with the device unregistration.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net_sched: cls_flow: validate TCA_FLOW_RSHIFT attribute
syzbot found that TCA_FLOW_RSHIFT attribute was not validated.
Right shitfing a 32bit integer is undefined for large shift values.

shift exponent 9445 is too large for 32-bit type 'u32' (aka 'unsigned int')

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86/amd/pmc: Only disable IRQ1 wakeup where i8042 actually enabled it
Wakeup for IRQ1 should be disabled only in cases where i8042 had
actually enabled it, otherwise "wake_depth" for this IRQ will try to
drop below zero and there will be an unpleasant WARN() logged:
kernel: atkbd serio0: Disabling IRQ1 wakeup source to avoid platform firmware bug
kernel: ------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel: Unbalanced IRQ 1 wake disable
kernel: WARNING: CPU: 10 PID: 6431 at kernel/irq/manage.c:920 irq_set_irq_wake+0x147/0x1a0
The PMC driver uses DEFINE_SIMPLE_DEV_PM_OPS() to define its dev_pm_ops
which sets amd_pmc_suspend_handler() to the .suspend, .freeze, and
.poweroff handlers. i8042_pm_suspend(), however, is only set as
the .suspend handler.
Fix the issue by call PMC suspend handler only from the same set of
dev_pm_ops handlers as i8042_pm_suspend(), which currently means just
the .suspend handler.
To reproduce this issue try hibernating (S4) the machine after a fresh boot
without putting it into s2idle first.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: conntrack: clamp maximum hashtable size to INT_MAX
Use INT_MAX as maximum size for the conntrack hashtable. Otherwise, it
is possible to hit WARN_ON_ONCE in __kvmalloc_node_noprof() when
resizing hashtable because __GFP_NOWARN is unset. See:
0708a0afe291 ("mm: Consider __GFP_NOWARN flag for oversized kvmalloc() calls")
Note: hashtable resize is only possible from init_netns.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rds: sysctl: rds_tcp_{rcv,snd}buf: avoid using current->nsproxy
As mentioned in a previous commit of this series, using the 'net'
structure via 'current' is not recommended for different reasons:
- Inconsistency: getting info from the reader's/writer's netns vs only
from the opener's netns.
- current->nsproxy can be NULL in some cases, resulting in an 'Oops'
(null-ptr-deref), e.g. when the current task is exiting, as spotted by
syzbot [1] using acct(2).
The per-netns structure can be obtained from the table->data using
container_of(), then the 'net' one can be retrieved from the listen
socket (if available).
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: sysctl: plpmtud_probe_interval: avoid using current->nsproxy
As mentioned in a previous commit of this series, using the 'net'

syzbot [1] using acct(2).
The 'net' structure can be obtained from the table->data using
container_of().
Note that table->data could also be used directly, as this is the only
member needed from the 'net' structure, but that would increase the size
of this fix, to use '*data' everywhere 'net->sctp.probe_interval' is
used.
