Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: fix f2fs_bug_on when uninstalling filesystem call f2fs_evict_inode. creating a large files during checkpoint disable until it runs out of
space and then delete it, then remount to enable checkpoint again, and
then unmount the filesystem triggers the f2fs_bug_on as below: ------------[ cut here ]------------

period results in not enough free segments, so when writing back root
inode will failed in f2fs_enable_checkpoint. When umount the file
system after enabling checkpoint, the root inode is dirty in
f2fs_evict_inode function, which triggers BUG_ON. The steps to
reproduce are as follows: dd if=/dev/zero of=f2fs.img bs=1M count=55
mount f2fs.img f2fs_dir -o checkpoint=disable:10%
dd if=/dev/zero of=big bs=1M count=50
sync
rm big
mount -o remount,checkpoint=enable f2fs_dir
umount f2fs_dir Let's redirty inode when there is not free segments during checkpoint
is disable.

Ziming Zhang discovered that the DRM driver for VMware Virtual GPU did not properly handle certain error conditions, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. A local attacker could possibly trigger this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. Ye Zhang and Nicolas Wu discovered that the io_uring subsystem in the Linux kernel did not properly handle locking for rings with IOPOLL, leading to a double-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service or possibly execute arbitrary code.
