Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: txgbe: free isb resources at the right time When using MSI/INTx interrupt, the shared interrupts are still being
handled in the device remove routine, before free IRQs. So isb memory
is still read after it is freed. Thus move wx_free_isb_resources()
from txgbe_close() to txgbe_remove(). And fix the improper isb free
action in txgbe_open() error handling path.

Chenyuan Yang discovered that the USB Gadget subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly check for the device to be enabled before writing. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
