commit 30d49cba27f8905bc288cef5846963f0004f644c upstream.

rtw_get_chan_type() maps the driver's channel offset to nl80211 channel
types the wrong way around.

In this driver HAL_PRIME_CHNL_OFFSET_LOWER means the primary channel is
the lower 20 MHz half of the 40 MHz pair, i.e. the secondary channel is
above the primary one: rtw_get_center_ch() computes the center channel
as "channel + 2" for OFFSET_LOWER, and bwmode_update_check() sets
OFFSET_LOWER when the AP's HT operation IE announces SCA (secondary
channel above). In nl80211 terms that is NL80211_CHAN_HT40PLUS, not
HT40MINUS.

Because of the inversion, cfg80211_rtw_get_channel() reports an HT40+
association as HT40-. For an HT40+ AP on a low channel (e.g. channel 3)
the resulting chandef spans below the 2.4 GHz band edge and is invalid,
so the regulatory core tears the connection down 60 seconds
(REG_ENFORCE_GRACE_MS) after the AP's country IE triggers a regdomain
change: reg_check_chans_work() considers the reported chandef unusable
and calls cfg80211_leave(). The supplicant then reconnects, the country
IE changes the regdomain again, and the cycle repeats, causing a
disconnect/reconnect loop every ~65 seconds for as long as the link is
up.

Observed on a TECLAST X80 Power tablet (RTL8723BS) associated to an
HT40+ AP on channel 3 with a KR country IE; a kprobe trace showed
cfg80211_disconnect() being invoked from reg_check_chans_work(). With
the mapping fixed, "iw dev wlan0 info" reports the correct
"width: 40 MHz, center1: 2432 MHz" and the periodic disconnects stop.

commit 0e95ff792ae0aa6fbad9455943e9e1e4062670e9 upstream.

rtw_get_wps_ie() iterates over IE data from network frames without
validating that the IE header and payload fit within the remaining
buffer before reading them. Specifically:

- in_ie[cnt + 1] is read without checking cnt + 1 &lt; in_len
- memcmp(&amp;in_ie[cnt + 2], ...) accesses cnt + 2 without bounds check
- in_ie[cnt + 1] is used as length without verifying payload fits

Add bounds checks at the top of the loop body to break early if fewer
than 2 bytes remain for the IE header, or if the declared payload
extends past the end of the buffer. Also require at least 4 bytes of
payload before comparing the WPS OUI.

commit d5b50055338e131a1a99f923ebb0361974a00f36 upstream.

tegra_get_format_fourcc_by_idx() returns a u32 but uses -EINVAL to
signal an out-of-bounds index. This results in a large unsigned
value being returned, which may be interpreted as a valid fourcc.

Returning 0 is not a valid fourcc either. This condition should
never happen, so use WARN_ON_ONCE() to catch unexpected out-of-bounds
access and return a valid fallback format instead.

<title>media: meson: vdec: Fix memory leak in error path of vdec_open</title>

<content type='text'>
commit 940f161f734b25f175a95d2684c2021f6323693a upstream.

The vdec_open() function previously jumped directly to
err_m2m_release when vdec_init_ctrls() failed, skipping
release of the m2m context. This caused a resource leak.

Fix it by introducing a proper err_m2m_ctx_release label
that calls v4l2_m2m_ctx_release(sess-&gt;m2m_ctx) before
releasing the m2m device.

This was identified via kmemleak:

commit 10358ea986c3c85516d1c8206486464f79d36e76 upstream.

Cedrus consumes H.264 ref_pic_list0/ref_pic_list1 entries from the
stateless slice control and later uses their indices to look up
decode-&gt;dpb[] in _cedrus_write_ref_list().

Rejecting such controls in cedrus_try_ctrl() would break existing
userspace, since stateless H.264 reference lists may legitimately carry
out-of-range indices for missing references. Instead, guard the actual
DPB lookup in Cedrus and skip entries whose indices do not fit the fixed
V4L2_H264_NUM_DPB_ENTRIES array.

This keeps the fix local to the driver use site and avoids out-of-bounds
reads from malformed or unsupported reference list entries.

commit d99732334aaf33b9f93926b70b6a11c2cef3de39 upstream.

According to the documentation struct v4l2_fh has to be cleaned up with
v4l2_fh_exit() before being freed. [1]
Currently there is no actual bug here, when v4l2_fh_exit() isn't called.
v4l2_fh_exit() in this case only destroys internal mutex. But it may
change in the future, when v4l2_fh_init/v4l2_fh_exit will be enhanced.

commit 2c869b6969f3061cbbdab587f4c0a88bd7fc3cc9 upstream.

cedrus_probe() initializes the media device before registering the video
device, the media controller, and the media device. If any of those later
steps fails, probe returns without calling media_device_cleanup(), so the
media device internals initialized by media_device_init() are left behind.

Add a media-device cleanup label to the probe unwind path and route video
registration failures through it as well.

[ Upstream commit 7cb1c5b32a2bfde961fff8d5204526b609bcb30a ]

comp_register_videodev() allocates a video_device with
video_device_alloc() and releases it if video_register_device() fails.

This can double free the video_device when __video_register_device()
reaches device_register() and that call fails:

  video_register_device()
    -&gt; __video_register_device()
       -&gt; device_register() fails
          -&gt; put_device(&amp;vdev-&gt;dev)
             -&gt; v4l2_device_release()
                -&gt; vdev-&gt;release(vdev)
                   -&gt; video_device_release(vdev)

  comp_register_videodev()
    -&gt; video_device_release(mdev-&gt;vdev)

Use video_device_release_empty() while registering the device so that
registration failure paths do not free mdev-&gt;vdev through vdev-&gt;release().
comp_register_videodev() then releases mdev-&gt;vdev exactly once on failure.
Restore video_device_release() after successful registration so the
registered device keeps its normal lifetime handling.

This issue was found by a static analysis tool I am developing.

[ Upstream commit 26813881181deb3a32fbb59eadb2599cbe8423f6 ]

In nvec_rx_completed(), when an incomplete RX transfer is detected,
nvec_msg_free() is called to return the message back to the pool by
clearing its 'used' atomic flag. Immediately after this, the code
accesses nvec-&gt;rx-&gt;data[0] to check the message type.

Since nvec_msg_free() marks the pool slot as available via atomic_set(),
any concurrent or subsequent call to nvec_msg_alloc() could claim that
same slot and overwrite its data[] array. Reading nvec-&gt;rx-&gt;data[0] after
freeing the message is therefore a use-after-free.

Fix this by saving the message type byte before calling nvec_msg_free(),
then using the saved value for the battery quirk check.
