kernel: ipv6: ensure sane device mtu in tunnels
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s IPv6 networking code affecting the handling of IPv6 GRE tunnels. Under certain conditions, an IPv6 tunnel configuration could result in an invalid MTU Maximum Transmission Unit value being written to a network device without sanitization. Because the MTU val...
kernel: gfs2: NULL pointer dereference in gfs2_evict_inode()
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the gfs2 file system in the Linux kernel. This issue occurs on corrupt gfs2 file systems when the evict code tries to reference the journal descriptor structure after it has been freed and set to NULL. This flaw allows a privileged local user to cause ...

kernel: HID: intel-ish-hid: Fix kernel panic during warm reset
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: HID: intel-ish-hid: Fix kernel panic during warm reset During warm reset device-fwclient is set to NULL. If a bus driver is registered after this NULL setting and before new firmware clients are enumerated by ISHTP, kernel panic...
kernel: locking/csd_lock: Change csdlock_debug from early_param to __setup
A null pointer dereference exists in the linux kernel such that with CONFIGSPARSEMEMVMEMMAP=n, nrtosection is called in statickeyenable and returns NULL, resulting in a kernal panic...
kernel: scsi: storvsc: Fix handling of virtual Fibre Channel timeouts
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: storvsc: Fix handling of virtual Fibre Channel timeouts Hyper-V provides the ability to connect Fibre Channel LUNs to the host system and present them in a guest VM as a SCSI device. I/O to the vFC device is handled by the...
kernel: octeontx2-af: Add validation for lmac type
A flaw was found in the octeontx2-af network driver within the Linux kernel where insufficient validation of the lmactypeid field from firmware during a physical link change can result in a kernel panic. Firmware may report an invalid lmactypeid, and because the kernel previously derived an...
