In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Check BIOS images before it is used BIOS images may fail to load and null checks are added before they are used. This fixes 6 NULL_RETURNS issues reported by Coverity.

Attila Szász discovered that the HFS+ file system implementation in the Linux Kernel contained a heap overflow vulnerability. An attacker could use a specially crafted file system image that, when mounted, could cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code. Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
