| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: fix use-after-free and NULL deref in smb_grant_oplock()
smb_grant_oplock() has two issues in the oplock publication sequence:
1) opinfo is linked into ci->m_op_list (via opinfo_add) before
add_lease_global_list() is called. If add_lease_global_list()
fails (kmalloc returns NULL), the error path frees the opinfo
via __free_opinfo() while it is still linked in ci->m_op_list.
Concurrent m_op_list readers (opinfo_get_list, or direct iteration
in smb_break_all_levII_oplock) dereference the freed node.
2) opinfo->o_fp is assigned after add_lease_global_list() publishes
the opinfo on the global lease list. A concurrent
find_same_lease_key() can walk the lease list and dereference
opinfo->o_fp->f_ci while o_fp is still NULL.
Fix by restructuring the publication sequence to eliminate post-publish
failure:
- Set opinfo->o_fp before any list publication (fixes NULL deref).
- Preallocate lease_table via alloc_lease_table() before opinfo_add()
so add_lease_global_list() becomes infallible after publication.
- Keep the original m_op_list publication order (opinfo_add before
lease list) so concurrent opens via same_client_has_lease() and
opinfo_get_list() still see the in-flight grant.
- Use opinfo_put() instead of __free_opinfo() on err_out so that
the RCU-deferred free path is used.
This also requires splitting add_lease_global_list() to take a
preallocated lease_table and changing its return type from int to void,
since it can no longer fail. |

mm/damon/core: avoid use of half-online-committed context
One major usage of damon_call() is online DAMON parameters update. It is
done by calling damon_commit_ctx() inside the damon_call() callback
function. damon_commit_ctx() can fail for two reasons: 1) invalid
parameters and 2) internal memory allocation failures. In case of
failures, the damon_ctx that attempted to be updated (commit destination)
can be partially updated (or, corrupted from a perspective), and therefore
shouldn't be used anymore. The function only ensures the damon_ctx object
can safely deallocated using damon_destroy_ctx().
The API callers are, however, calling damon_commit_ctx() only after
asserting the parameters are valid, to avoid damon_commit_ctx() fails due
to invalid input parameters. But it can still theoretically fail if the
internal memory allocation fails. In the case, DAMON may run with the
partially updated damon_ctx. This can result in unexpected behaviors
including even NULL pointer dereference in case of damos_commit_dests()
failure [1]. Such allocation failure is arguably too small to fail, so
the real world impact would be rare. But, given the bad consequence, this
needs to be fixed.
Avoid such partially-committed (maybe-corrupted) damon_ctx use by saving
the damon_commit_ctx() failure on the damon_ctx object. For this,
introduce damon_ctx->maybe_corrupted field. damon_commit_ctx() sets it
when it is failed. kdamond_call() checks if the field is set after each
damon_call_control->fn() is executed. If it is set, ignore remaining
callback requests and return. All kdamond_call() callers including
kdamond_fn() also check the maybe_corrupted field right after
kdamond_call() invocations. If the field is set, break the kdamond_fn()
main loop so that DAMON sill doesn't use the context that might be
corrupted.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
comedi: ni_atmio16d: Fix invalid clean-up after failed attach
If the driver's COMEDI "attach" handler function (`atmio16d_attach()`)
returns an error, the COMEDI core will call the driver's "detach"
handler function (`atmio16d_detach()`) to clean up. This calls
`reset_atmio16d()` unconditionally, but depending on where the error
occurred in the attach handler, the device may not have been
sufficiently initialized to call `reset_atmio16d()`. It uses
`dev->iobase` as the I/O port base address and `dev->private` as the
pointer to the COMEDI device's private data structure. `dev->iobase`
may still be set to its initial value of 0, which would result in
undesired writes to low I/O port addresses. `dev->private` may still be
`NULL`, which would result in null pointer dereferences.
Fix `atmio16d_detach()` by checking that `dev->private` is valid
(non-null) before calling `reset_atmio16d()`. This implies that
`dev->iobase` was set correctly since that is set up before
`dev->private`. |

drm/amd/display: check if ext_caps is valid in BL setup
LVDS connectors don't have extended backlight caps so check
if the pointer is valid before accessing it.

| Incus is a system container and virtual machine manager. In versions before 7.0.0, missing validation logic in the storage bucket import logic allows an authenticated user with access to the storage bucket feature to cause the Incus daemon to crash. The vulnerability is present in the backup metadata handling logic, where the daemon processes the index.yaml file from an imported archive and accesses members of the parsed backup configuration without first verifying that the configuration object was initialized. A malicious or malformed index.yaml that omits the config block causes a nil-pointer dereference during bucket import operations and terminates the daemon. Repeated use of this issue can be used to keep Incus offline, causing a denial of service. This issue is fixed in version 7.0.0. |
| Incus is a system container and virtual machine manager. In versions before 7.0.0, missing validation logic in the storage volume import logic allows an authenticated user with access to the storage volume feature to cause the Incus daemon to crash. The custom volume backup import subsystem contains a nil-pointer dereference vulnerability during import operations. In the snapshot import loop, the daemon iterates over entries from `srcBackup.Config.VolumeSnapshots` and assumes that each slice element is initialized, then dereferences fields such as `Name`, `Config`, `Description`, `CreatedAt`, and `ExpiresAt` without first validating the element itself. Because the yaml unmarshaler accepts explicit null array elements from an attacker-controlled index.yaml and converts them into nil pointers inside the slice, an attacker can supply a backup archive containing a null entry in the volume_snapshots array. This causes a nil-pointer dereference during custom volume import and terminates the daemon, resulting in denial of service on the affected node. Repeated use of this issue can be used to keep Incus offline, causing a denial of service. This issue is fixed in version 7.0.0. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: mtk_ppe: avoid NULL deref when gmac0 is disabled
If the gmac0 is disabled, the precheck for a valid ingress device will
cause a NULL pointer deref and crash the system. This happens because
eth->netdev[0] will be NULL but the code will directly try to access
netdev_ops.
Instead of just checking for the first net_device, it must be checked if
any of the mtk_eth net_devices is matching the netdev_ops of the ingress
device. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: uvc: fix NULL pointer dereference during unbind race
Commit b81ac4395bbe ("usb: gadget: uvc: allow for application to cleanly
shutdown") introduced two stages of synchronization waits totaling 1500ms
in uvc_function_unbind() to prevent several types of kernel panics.
However, this timing-based approach is insufficient during power
management (PM) transitions.
When the PM subsystem starts freezing user space processes, the
wait_event_interruptible_timeout() is aborted early, which allows the
unbind thread to proceed and nullify the gadget pointer
(cdev->gadget = NULL):

[ 814.197668][ T947] configfs-gadget.g1 gadget.0: uvc: uvc_function_unbind no clean disconnect, wait for release
When the PM subsystem resumes or aborts the suspend and tasks are
restarted, the V4L2 release path is executed and attempts to access the
already nullified gadget pointer, triggering a kernel panic:

Address the race condition and NULL pointer dereference by:
1. State Synchronization (flag + mutex)
Introduce a 'func_unbound' flag in struct uvc_device. This allows
uvc_function_disconnect() to safely skip accessing the nullified
cdev->gadget pointer. As suggested by Alan Stern, this flag is protected
by a new mutex (uvc->lock) to ensure proper memory ordering and prevent
instruction reordering or speculative loads. This mutex is also used to
protect 'func_connected' for consistent state management.
2. Explicit Synchronization (completion)
Use a completion to synchronize uvc_function_unbind() with the
uvc_vdev_release() callback. This prevents Use-After-Free (UAF) by
ensuring struct uvc_device is freed after all video device resources
are released. |

usb: gadget: u_ether: Fix NULL pointer deref in eth_get_drvinfo
Commit ec35c1969650 ("usb: gadget: f_ncm: Fix net_device lifecycle with
device_move") reparents the gadget device to /sys/devices/virtual during
unbind, clearing the gadget pointer. If the userspace tool queries on
the surviving interface during this detached window, this leads to a
NULL pointer dereference.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvs: fix NULL deref in ip_vs_add_service error path
When ip_vs_bind_scheduler() succeeds in ip_vs_add_service(), the local
variable sched is set to NULL. If ip_vs_start_estimator() subsequently
fails, the out_err cleanup calls ip_vs_unbind_scheduler(svc, sched)
with sched == NULL. ip_vs_unbind_scheduler() passes the cur_sched NULL
check (because svc->scheduler was set by the successful bind) but then
dereferences the NULL sched parameter at sched->done_service, causing a
kernel panic at offset 0x30 from NULL.

[..]
Fix by simply not clearing the local sched variable after a successful
bind. ip_vs_unbind_scheduler() already detects whether a scheduler is
installed via svc->scheduler, and keeping sched non-NULL ensures the
error path passes the correct pointer to both ip_vs_unbind_scheduler()
and ip_vs_scheduler_put().
While the bug is older, the problem popups in more recent kernels (6.2),
when the new error path is taken after the ip_vs_start_estimator() call. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: publish jinode after initialization
ext4_inode_attach_jinode() publishes ei->jinode to concurrent users.
It used to set ei->jinode before jbd2_journal_init_jbd_inode(),
allowing a reader to observe a non-NULL jinode with i_vfs_inode
still unset.
The fast commit flush path can then pass this jinode to
jbd2_wait_inode_data(), which dereferences i_vfs_inode->i_mapping and
may crash.
Below is the crash I observe:

xfs: avoid dereferencing log items after push callbacks
After xfsaild_push_item() calls iop_push(), the log item may have been
freed if the AIL lock was dropped during the push. Background inode
reclaim or the dquot shrinker can free the log item while the AIL lock
is not held, and the tracepoints in the switch statement dereference
the log item after iop_push() returns.
Fix this by capturing the log item type, flags, and LSN before calling
xfsaild_push_item(), and introducing a new xfs_ail_push_class trace
event class that takes these pre-captured values and the ailp pointer
instead of the log item pointer. |

However, the init ordering is wrong such that device_initialize() happens

fs/buffer: add alert in try_to_free_buffers() for folios without buffers
try_to_free_buffers() can be called on folios with no buffers attached
when filemap_release_folio() is invoked on a folio belonging to a mapping
with AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS set but no release_folio operation defined.
In such cases, folio_needs_release() returns true because of the
AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS flag, but the folio has no private buffer data. This
causes try_to_free_buffers() to call drop_buffers() on a folio with no
buffers, leading to a null pointer dereference.
Adding a check in try_to_free_buffers() to return early if the folio has no
buffers attached, with WARN_ON_ONCE() to alert about the misconfiguration.
This provides defensive hardening. |
| Crash in sharkd 4.6.0 to 4.6.4 and 4.4.0 to 4.4.14 allows denial of service |
| A denial-of-service vulnerability has been identified in the libsoup HTTP client library. This flaw can be triggered when a libsoup client receives a 401 (Unauthorized) HTTP response containing a specifically crafted domain parameter within the WWW-Authenticate header. Processing this malformed header can lead to a crash of the client application using libsoup. An attacker could exploit this by setting up a malicious HTTP server. If a user's application using the vulnerable libsoup library connects to this malicious server, it could result in a denial-of-service. Successful exploitation requires tricking a user's client application into connecting to the attacker's malicious server. |
| A flaw was found in FFmpeg’s ALS audio decoder, where it does not properly check for memory allocation failures. This can cause the application to crash when processing certain malformed audio files. While it does not lead to data theft or system control, it can be used to disrupt services and cause a denial of service. |
