soc: bcm: Check for NULL return of devm_kzalloc()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: soc: bcm: Check for NULL return of devm_kzalloc() As the potential failure of allocation, devm_kzalloc() may return NULL. Then the 'pd->pmb' and the follow lines of code may bring null pointer dereference. Therefore, it is better to check the return value of devm_kzalloc() to avoid this confusion.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pinctrl: renesas: core: Fix possible null-ptr-deref in sh_pfc_map_resources() It will cause null-ptr-deref when using 'res', if platform_get_resource() returns NULL, so move using 'res' after devm_ioremap_resource() that will check it to avoid null-ptr-deref. And use devm_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource() to simplify code.

scsi: sd: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: sd: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference If sd_probe() sees an early error before sdkp->device is initialized, sd_zbc_release_disk() is called. This causes a NULL pointer dereference when sd_is_zoned() is called inside that function. Avoid this by removing the call to sd_zbc_release_disk() in sd_probe() error path. This change is safe and does not result in zone information memory leakage because the zone information for a zoned disk is allocated only when sd_revalidate_disk() is called, at which point sdkp->disk_dev is fully set, resulting in sd_disk_release() being called when needed to cleanup a disk zone information using sd_zbc_release_disk().

drm/amd/display: Fix a NULL pointer dereference in amdgpu_dm_connector_add_common_modes()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Fix a NULL pointer dereference in amdgpu_dm_connector_add_common_modes() In amdgpu_dm_connector_add_common_modes(), amdgpu_dm_create_common_mode() is assigned to mode and is passed to drm_mode_probed_add() directly after that. drm_mode_probed_add() passes &mode->head to list_add_tail(), and there is a dereference of it in list_add_tail() without recoveries, which could lead to NULL pointer dereference on failure of amdgpu_dm_create_common_mode(). Fix this by adding a NULL check of mode. This bug was found by a static analyzer. Builds with 'make allyesconfig' show no new warnings, and our static analyzer no longer warns about this code.

drm/msm/dp: populate connector of struct dp_panel

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/msm/dp: populate connector of struct dp_panel DP CTS test case 4.2.2.6 has valid edid with bad checksum on purpose and expect DP source return correct checksum. During drm edid read, correct edid checksum is calculated and stored at connector::real_edid_checksum. The problem is struct dp_panel::connector never be assigned, instead the connector is stored in struct msm_dp::connector. When we run compliance testing test case 4.2.2.6 dp_panel_handle_sink_request() won't have a valid edid set in struct dp_panel::edid so we'll try to use the connectors real_edid_checksum and hit a NULL pointer dereference error because the connector pointer is never assigned. Changes in V2: -- populate panel connector at msm_dp_modeset_init() instead of at dp_panel_read_sink_caps() Changes in V3: -- remove unhelpful kernel crash trace commit text -- remove renaming dp_display parameter to dp Changes in V4: -- add more details to commit text Changes in v10: -- group into one series Changes in v11: -- drop drm/msm/dp: dp_link_parse_sink_count() return immediately if aux read Signee-off-by: Kuogee Hsieh <quic_khsieh@quicinc.com>

ath11k: mhi: use mhi_sync_power_up()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ath11k: mhi: use mhi_sync_power_up() If amss.bin was missing ath11k would crash during 'rmmod ath11k_pci'. The reason for that was that we were using mhi_async_power_up() which does not check any errors. But mhi_sync_power_up() on the other hand does check for errors so let's use that to fix the crash. I was not able to find a reason why an async version was used. ath11k_mhi_start() (which enables state ATH11K_MHI_POWER_ON) is called from ath11k_hif_power_up(), which can sleep. So sync version should be safe to use here.

idpf: fix adapter NULL pointer dereference on reboot

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: idpf: fix adapter NULL pointer dereference on reboot With SRIOV enabled, idpf ends up calling into idpf_remove() twice. First via idpf_shutdown() and then again when idpf_remove() calls into sriov_disable(), because the VF devices use the idpf driver, hence the same remove routine. When that happens, it is possible for the adapter to be NULL from the first call to idpf_remove(), leading to a NULL pointer dereference. echo 1 > /sys/class/net/<netif>/device/sriov_numvfs reboot BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000020 ...
