In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: simplefb: Fix use after free in simplefb_detach_genpds()
The pm_domain cleanup can not be devres managed as it uses struct
simplefb_par which is allocated within struct fb_info by
framebuffer_alloc(). This allocation is explicitly freed by
unregister_framebuffer() in simplefb_remove().
Devres managed cleanup runs after the device remove call and thus can no
longer access struct simplefb_par.
Call simplefb_detach_genpds() explicitly from simplefb_destroy() like
the cleanup functions for clocks and regulators.
Fixes an use after free on M2 Mac mini during
aperture_remove_conflicting_devices() using the downstream asahi kernel
with Debian's kernel config. For unknown reasons this started to
consistently dereference an invalid pointer in v6.16.3 based kernels.

Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.
Qualys discovered that several vulnerabilities existed in the AppArmor
Linux kernel Security Module (LSM). An unprivileged local attacker could
use these issues to load, replace, and remove arbitrary AppArmor profiles
causing denial of service, exposure of sensitive information (kernel
memory), local privilege escalation, or possibly escape a container.
(LP: #2143853)
Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems:
- ARM64 architecture;
- MIPS architecture;
- Nios II architecture;
- PA-RISC architecture;
- RISC-V architecture;
- S390 architecture

kernel: fbdev: simplefb: Fix use after free in simplefb_detach_genpds()
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: simplefb: Fix use after free in simplefb_detach_genpds()
The pm_domain cleanup can not be devres managed as it uses struct
simplefb_par which is allocated within struct fb_info by
framebuffer_alloc(). This allocation is explicitly freed by
unregister_framebuffer() in simplefb_remove().
Devres managed cleanup runs after the device remove call and thus can no
longer access struct simplefb_par.
Call simplefb_detach_genpds() explicitly from simplefb_destroy() like
the cleanup functions for clocks and regulators.
Fixes an use after free on M2 Mac mini during
aperture_remove_conflicting_devices() using the downstream asahi kernel
with Debian's kernel
