Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipmr: do not call mr_mfc_uses_dev() for unres entries syzbot found that calling mr_mfc_uses_dev() for unres entries
would crash [1], because c->mfc_un.res.minvif / c->mfc_un.res.maxvif
alias to "struct sk_buff_head unresolved", which contain two pointers. This code never worked, lets remove it. [1]
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffff5fff2d536613
KASAN: maybe wild-memory-access in range [0xfffefff96a9b3098-0xfffefff96a9b309f]
