(CVE-2023-3090)

* kernel: UAF in nftables when nft_set_lookup_global triggered after
handling named and anonymous sets in batch requests (CVE-2023-3390)

* kernel: netfilter: use-after-free due to improper element removal in
nft_pipapo_remove() (CVE-2023-4004)

* kernel: nf_tables: stack-out-of-bounds-read in nft_byteorder_eval()
(CVE-2023-35001)

* kernel: cls_flower: out-of-bounds write in fl_set_geneve_opt()
(CVE-2023-35788)

* Kernel: bluetooth: Unauthorized management command execution
(CVE-2023-2002)

* kernel: OOB access in the Linux kernel's XFS subsystem (CVE-2023-2124)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS
