A vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel that has been resolved. It concerns improper management of bio pointers in cloned requests, leading to issues with use-after-free.

A vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel regarding missing syscalls in the audit read class. The missing 'at' variants of getxattr() and listxattr() may allow bypassing audit rules when reading file extended attributes.

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel has been resolved, which occurred in the try_to_free_buffers() function. The issue involved folios without attached buffers, potentially leading to system instability.

A vulnerability related to APEI/GHES has been resolved in the Linux kernel, which could lead to the allocation of overly large records. The logic in the ghes_new() function checks that records do not exceed the maximum size of GHES_ESTATUS_MAX_SIZE, currently set at 64KB.

A vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel related to improper reference counting management in the 'xfrm_state' structure. The issue occurs during the NETDEV_UNREGISTER event, leading to reference count leaks.

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel related to RDS connections lacking a proper shortcut in case of connection errors has been resolved.

A vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel that has been resolved. In the tw9906_probe() function, there was a potential memory leak because memory allocated in v4l2_ctrl_handler_init() and v4l2_ctrl_new_std() was not freed.

A vulnerability in the virtio-gpu module of the Linux kernel involves an incorrect overflow check when allocating 2D images. This flaw can lead to a buffer overflow, potentially enabling privilege escalation or system crash.

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel has been resolved regarding the introduction of locking when enabling/disabling SR-IOV, which led to deadlocks.

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel related to vhost has been resolved by moving the vdpa group bound check to vhost_vdpa. This reduces duplication and lowers the risk of a parent driver missing them.

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel related to double free in the pruss_clk_mux_setup() function has been resolved. The issue occurred during the call to devm_add_action_or_reset(), which triggered pruss_of_free_clk_provider() on error.

A vulnerability has been identified in the Linux kernel related to the kexec_load_purgatory() function, which derives the start image from the SHF_EXECINSTR section. The issue occurs when the purgatory object contains multiple executable sections with overlapping addresses.
