Hi Greg and Sasha,

Thanks for queueing the earlier fixes across the affected trees. My 6.12.y request covers the three fixes shared by 6.12.y and 6.18.y, leaving these six mainline CVE fixes still missing from 6.18.y. Linux CNA affected-version ranges include v6.18.48 for each. Every newer supported stable tree already has them.

I applied the current 6.18.y queue to v6.18.48, then cherry-picked this exact set without changes. The x86_64 allmodconfig kernel and modules built without warnings with WERROR enabled. The affected 32-bit tunnel code also compiled without warnings with the relevant options enabled. I did not runtime-test these fixes.

Could you please queue these six commits for 6.18.y?

I used Codex to compare the histories and run the builds. I checked the final list against vulns.git and the branch history.
