Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/smc: fix lacks of icsk_syn_mss with IPPROTO_SMC Eric report a panic on IPPROTO_SMC, and give the facts
that when INET_PROTOSW_ICSK was set, icsk->icsk_sync_mss must be set too. Bug: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address

---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- This patch add a toy implementation that performs a simple return to
prevent such panic. This is because MSS can be set in sock_create_kern
or smc_setsockopt, similar to how it's done in AF_SMC. However, for
AF_SMC, there is currently no way to synchronize MSS within
__sys_connect_file. This toy implementation lays the groundwork for us
to support such feature for IPPROTO_SMC in the future.

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.
