- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hwmon: (w83792d) Fix NULL pointer
dereference by removing unnecessary structure field If driver read val value sufficient for (val & 0x08)
&& (!(val & 0x80)) && ((val & 0x7) == ((val >> 4) & 0x7)) from device then Null pointer dereference
occurs. (It is possible if tmp = 0b0xyz1xyz, where same literals mean same numbers) Also lm75[] does not
serve a purpose anymore after switching to devm_i2c_new_dummy_device() in w83791d_detect_subclients(). The
patch fixes possible NULL pointer dereference by removing lm75[]. Found by Linux Driver Verification
project (linuxtesting.org). [groeck: Dropped unnecessary continuation lines, fixed multipline alignment]

(CVE-2021-47386)
- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mm/uffd: fix pte marker when fork()
without fork event Patch series mm: Fixes on pte markers. Patch 1 resolves the syzkiller report from
Pengfei. Patch 2 further harden pte markers when used with the recent swapin error markers. The major case
is we should persist a swapin error marker after fork(), so child shouldn't read a corrupted page. This
patch (of 2): When fork(), dst_vma is not guaranteed to have VM_UFFD_WP even if src may have it and has
pte marker installed. The warning is improper along with the comment. The right thing is to inherit the
pte marker when needed, or keep the dst pte empty. A vague guess is this happened by an accident when
there's the prior patch to introduce src/dst vma into this helper during the uffd-wp feature got developed
and I probably messed up in the rebase, since if we replace dst_vma with src_vma the warning & comment it
all makes sense too. Hugetlb did exactly the right here (copy_hugetlb_page_range()). Fix the general path.

checking return value of vkms_create() and free the config if error happened. (CVE-2022-50269)

hnae_ae_register() Inject fault while probing module, if device_register() fails, but the refcount of
kobject is not decreased to 0, the name allocated in dev_set_name() is leaked. Fix this by calling
put_device(), so that name can be freed in callback function kobject_cleanup(). unreferenced object
