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

net/mlx5e: Fix CT entry update leaks of modify header context

The cited commit allocates a new modify header to replace the old
one when updating CT entry. But if failed to allocate a new one, eg.
exceed the max number firmware can support, modify header will be
an error pointer that will trigger a panic when deallocating it. And
the old modify header point is copied to old attr. When the old
attr is freed, the old modify header is lost.

Fix it by restoring the old attr to attr when failed to allocate a
new modify header context. So when the CT entry is freed, the right
modify header context will be freed. And the panic of accessing
error pointer is also fixed.

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

drm/vmwgfx: Fix a deadlock in dma buf fence polling

Introduce a version of the fence ops that on release doesn't remove
the fence from the pending list, and thus doesn't require a lock to
fix poll->fence wait->fence unref deadlocks.

vmwgfx overwrites the wait callback to iterate over the list of all
fences and update their status, to do that it holds a lock to prevent
the list modifcations from other threads. The fence destroy callback
both deletes the fence and removes it from the list of pending
fences, for which it holds a lock.

dma buf polling cb unrefs a fence after it's been signaled: so the poll
calls the wait, which signals the fences, which are being destroyed.
The destruction tries to acquire the lock on the pending fences list
which it can never get because it's held by the wait from which it
was called.

Old bug, but not a lot of userspace apps were using dma-buf polling
interfaces. Fix those, in particular this fixes KDE stalls/deadlock.

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

net: wan: fsl_qmc_hdlc: Convert carrier_lock spinlock to a mutex

The carrier_lock spinlock protects the carrier detection. While it is
held, framer_get_status() is called which in turn takes a mutex.
This is not correct and can lead to a deadlock.

A run with PROVE_LOCKING enabled detected the issue:
[ BUG: Invalid wait context ]

Avoid the spinlock usage and convert carrier_lock to a mutex.

A vulnerability classified as critical has been found in chillzhuang SpringBlade 4.1.0. Affected is an unknown function of the file /api/blade-system/menu/list?updatexml. The manipulation leads to sql injection. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. NOTE: The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

A vulnerability was found in Genexis Tilgin Home Gateway 322_AS0500-03_05_13_05. It has been rated as problematic. This issue affects some unknown processing of the file /vood/cgi-bin/vood_view.cgi?lang=EN&act=user/spec_conf&sessionId=86213915328111654515&user=A&message2user=Account%20updated. The manipulation of the argument Phone Number leads to cross site scripting. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. NOTE: The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way.

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

riscv/purgatory: align riscv_kernel_entry

When alignment handling is delegated to the kernel, everything must be
word-aligned in purgatory, since the trap handler is then set to the
kexec one. Without the alignment, hitting the exception would
ultimately crash. On other occasions, the kernel's handler would take
care of exceptions.
This has been tested on a JH7110 SoC with oreboot and its SBI delegating
unaligned access exceptions and the kernel configured to handle them.

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

drm/nouveau: prime: fix refcount underflow

Calling nouveau_bo_ref() on a nouveau_bo without initializing it (and
hence the backing ttm_bo) leads to a refcount underflow.

Instead of calling nouveau_bo_ref() in the unwind path of
drm_gem_object_init(), clean things up manually.

(cherry picked from commit 1b93f3e89d03cfc576636e195466a0d728ad8de5)

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

net/mlx5: Always drain health in shutdown callback

There is no point in recovery during device shutdown. if health
work started need to wait for it to avoid races and NULL pointer
access.

Hence, drain health WQ on shutdown callback.

An XML signature wrapping vulnerability was present in GitHub Enterprise Server (GHES) when utilizing SAML authentication with specific identity providers. This vulnerability allowed an attacker with direct network access to GitHub Enterprise Server to forge a SAML response to provision and/or gain access to a user with site administrator privileges. Exploitation of this vulnerability would allow unauthorized access to the instance without requiring prior authentication. This vulnerability affected all versions of GitHub Enterprise Server prior to 3.14 and was fixed in versions 3.13.3, 3.12.8, 3.11.14, and 3.10.16. This vulnerability was reported via the GitHub Bug Bounty program.

An Incorrect Authorization vulnerability was identified in GitHub Enterprise Server, allowing an attacker to update the title, assignees, and labels of any issue inside a public repository. This was only exploitable inside a public repository. This vulnerability affected GitHub Enterprise Server versions before 3.14 and was fixed in versions 3.13.3, 3.12.8, and 3.11.14. Versions 3.10 of GitHub Enterprise Server are not affected. This vulnerability was reported via the GitHub Bug Bounty program.
