| nscd: Null pointer crashes after notfound response
If the Name Service Cache Daemon's (nscd) cache fails to add a not-found
netgroup response to the cache, the client request can result in a null
pointer dereference. This flaw was introduced in glibc 2.15 when the
cache was added to nscd.
This vulnerability is only present in the nscd binary. |

This warning is emitted because in the connect path, when trying to parse
target BSS parameters, we dereference a RCU pointer whithout being in RCU
critical section.
Fix RCU dereference usage by moving it to a RCU read critical section. To
avoid wrapping the whole wilc_parse_join_bss_param under the critical
section, just use the critical section to copy ies data |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: phy: fix phy_get_internal_delay accessing an empty array
The phy_get_internal_delay function could try to access to an empty
array in the case that the driver is calling phy_get_internal_delay
without defining delay_values and rx-internal-delay-ps or
tx-internal-delay-ps is defined to 0 in the device-tree.
This will lead to "unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at
virtual address 0". To avoid this kernel oops, the test should be delay
>= 0. As there is already delay < 0 test just before, the test could
only be size == 0. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: Fix clk_core_get NULL dereference
It is possible for clk_core_get to dereference a NULL in the following
sequence:
clk_core_get()
of_clk_get_hw_from_clkspec()
__of_clk_get_hw_from_provider()
__clk_get_hw()
__clk_get_hw() can return NULL which is dereferenced by clk_core_get() at
hw->core.
Prior to commit dde4eff47c82 ("clk: Look for parents with clkdev based
clk_lookups") the check IS_ERR_OR_NULL() was performed which would have
caught the NULL.
Reading the description of this function it talks about returning NULL but
that cannot be so at the moment.
Update the function to check for hw before dereferencing it and return NULL
if hw is NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nbd: null check for nla_nest_start
nla_nest_start() may fail and return NULL. Insert a check and set errno
based on other call sites within the same source code. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wireguard: netlink: access device through ctx instead of peer
The previous commit fixed a bug that led to a NULL peer->device being
dereferenced. It's actually easier and faster performance-wise to
instead get the device from ctx->wg. This semantically makes more sense
too, since ctx->wg->peer_allowedips.seq is compared with
ctx->allowedips_seq, basing them both in ctx. This also acts as a
defence in depth provision against freed peers. |

Bluetooth: rfcomm: Fix null-ptr-deref in rfcomm_check_security
During our fuzz testing of the connection and disconnection process at the
RFCOMM layer, we discovered this bug. By comparing the packets from a
normal connection and disconnection process with the testcase that
triggered a KASAN report. We analyzed the cause of this bug as follows:
1. In the packets captured during a normal connection, the host sends a
`Read Encryption Key Size` type of `HCI_CMD` packet
(Command Opcode: 0x1408) to the controller to inquire the length of
encryption key.After receiving this packet, the controller immediately
replies with a Command Completepacket (Event Code: 0x0e) to return the
Encryption Key Size.
2. In our fuzz test case, the timing of the controller's response to this
packet was delayed to an unexpected point: after the RFCOMM and L2CAP
layers had disconnected but before the HCI layer had disconnected.
3. After receiving the Encryption Key Size Response at the time described
in point 2, the host still called the rfcomm_check_security function.
However, by this time `struct l2cap_conn *conn = l2cap_pi(sk)->chan->conn;`
had already been released, and when the function executed
`return hci_conn_security(conn->hcon, d->sec_level, auth_type, d->out);`,
specifically when accessing `conn->hcon`, a null-ptr-deref error occurred.
To fix this bug, check if `sk->sk_state` is BT_CLOSED before calling
rfcomm_recv_frame in rfcomm_process_rx. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm: call the resume method on internal suspend
There is this reported crash when experimenting with the lvm2 testsuite.
The list corruption is caused by the fact that the postsuspend and resume
methods were not paired correctly; there were two consecutive calls to the
origin_postsuspend function. The second call attempts to remove the
"hash_list" entry from a list, while it was already removed by the first
call.
Fix __dm_internal_resume so that it calls the preresume and resume
methods of the table's targets.
If a preresume method of some target fails, we are in a tricky situation.
We can't return an error because dm_internal_resume isn't supposed to
return errors. We can't return success, because then the "resume" and
"postsuspend" methods would not be paired correctly. So, we set the
DMF_SUSPENDED flag and we fake normal suspend - it may confuse userspace
tools, but it won't cause a kernel crash.

quota: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference
Below race may cause NULL pointer dereference
P1 P2
dquot_free_inode quota_off
drop_dquot_ref
remove_dquot_ref
dquots = i_dquot(inode)
dquots = i_dquot(inode)
srcu_read_lock
dquots[cnt]) != NULL (1)
dquots[type] = NULL (2)
spin_lock(&dquots[cnt]->dq_dqb_lock) (3)
....
If dquot_free_inode(or other routines) checks inode's quota pointers (1)
before quota_off sets it to NULL(2) and use it (3) after that, NULL pointer
dereference will be triggered.
So let's fix it by using a temporary pointer to avoid this issue. |

net: ice: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in ice_bridge_setlink()
The function ice_bridge_setlink() may encounter a NULL pointer dereference
if nlmsg_find_attr() returns NULL and br_spec is dereferenced subsequently
in nla_for_each_nested(). To address this issue, add a check to ensure that
br_spec is not NULL before proceeding with the nested attribute iteration. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vfio/pci: Create persistent INTx handler
A vulnerability exists where the eventfd for INTx signaling can be
deconfigured, which unregisters the IRQ handler but still allows
eventfds to be signaled with a NULL context through the SET_IRQS ioctl
or through unmask irqfd if the device interrupt is pending.
Ideally this could be solved with some additional locking; the igate
mutex serializes the ioctl and config space accesses, and the interrupt
handler is unregistered relative to the trigger, but the irqfd path
runs asynchronous to those. The igate mutex cannot be acquired from the
atomic context of the eventfd wake function. Disabling the irqfd
relative to the eventfd registration is potentially incompatible with
existing userspace.
As a result, the solution implemented here moves configuration of the
INTx interrupt handler to track the lifetime of the INTx context object
and irq_type configuration, rather than registration of a particular
trigger eventfd. Synchronization is added between the ioctl path and
eventfd_signal() wrapper such that the eventfd trigger can be
dynamically updated relative to in-flight interrupts or irqfd callbacks. |
| A race condition was found in the Linux kernel's scsi device driver in lpfc_unregister_fcf_rescan() function. This can result in a null pointer dereference issue, possibly leading to a kernel panic or denial of service issue.

| NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Linux kernel kernel on Linux, x86, ARM (net, bluetooth modules) allows Overflow Buffers. This vulnerability is associated with program files /net/bluetooth/rfcomm/core.C.
This issue affects Linux kernel: v2.6.12-rc2. |
| Issue summary: Processing a maliciously formatted PKCS12 file may lead OpenSSL
to crash leading to a potential Denial of Service attack
Impact summary: Applications loading files in the PKCS12 format from untrusted
sources might terminate abruptly.
A file in PKCS12 format can contain certificates and keys and may come from an
untrusted source. The PKCS12 specification allows certain fields to be NULL, but
OpenSSL does not correctly check for this case. This can lead to a NULL pointer
dereference that results in OpenSSL crashing. If an application processes PKCS12
files from an untrusted source using the OpenSSL APIs then that application will
be vulnerable to this issue.
OpenSSL APIs that are vulnerable to this are: PKCS12_parse(),
PKCS12_unpack_p7data(), PKCS12_unpack_p7encdata(), PKCS12_unpack_authsafes()
and PKCS12_newpass().
We have also fixed a similar issue in SMIME_write_PKCS7(). However since this
function is related to writing data we do not consider it security significant.
The FIPS modules in 3.2, 3.1 and 3.0 are not affected by this issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: add check that partition length needs to be aligned with block size
Before calling add partition or resize partition, there is no check
on whether the length is aligned with the logical block size.
If the logical block size of the disk is larger than 512 bytes,
then the partition size maybe not the multiple of the logical block size,
and when the last sector is read, bio_truncate() will adjust the bio size,
resulting in an IO error if the size of the read command is smaller than
the logical block size.If integrity data is supported, this will also
result in a null pointer dereference when calling bio_integrity_free. |
| A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability was found in vmwgfx driver in drivers/gpu/vmxgfx/vmxgfx_execbuf.c in GPU component of Linux kernel with device file '/dev/dri/renderD128 (or Dxxx)'. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user account on the system to gain privilege, causing a denial of service(DoS). |

nfsd: fix NULL dereference in nfs3svc_encode_getaclres
In error cases the dentry may be NULL.
Before 20798dfe249a, the encoder also checked dentry and
d_really_is_positive(dentry), but that looks like overkill to me--zero
status should be enough to guarantee a positive dentry.
This isn't the first time we've seen an error-case NULL dereference
hidden in the initialization of a local variable in an xdr encoder. But
I went back through the other recent rewrites and didn't spot any
similar bugs. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: Fix null pointer dereference in svc_rqst_free()
When alloc_pages_node() returns null in svc_rqst_alloc(), the
null rq_scratch_page pointer will be dereferenced when calling
put_page() in svc_rqst_free(). Fix it by adding a null check.

media: v4l2-async: Fix error handling on steps after finding a match
Once an async connection is found to be matching with an fwnode, a
sub-device may be registered (in case it wasn't already), its bound
operation is called, ancillary links are created, the async connection
is added to the sub-device's list of connections and removed from the
global waiting connection list. Further on, the sub-device's possible own
notifier is searched for possible additional matches.
Fix these specific issues:
- If v4l2_async_match_notify() failed before the sub-notifier handling,
the async connection was unbound and its entry removed from the
sub-device's async connection list. The latter part was also done in
v4l2_async_match_notify().
- The async connection's sd field was only set after creating ancillary
links in v4l2_async_match_notify(). It was however dereferenced in
v4l2_async_unbind_subdev_one(), which was called on error path of
v4l2_async_match_notify() failure. |

net: ethernet: ti: am65-cpsw-nuss: Fix null pointer dereference for ndev
In the TX completion packet stage of TI SoCs with CPSW2G instance, which
has single external ethernet port, ndev is accessed without being
initialized if no TX packets have been processed. It results into null
pointer dereference, causing kernel to crash. Fix this by having a check
on the number of TX packets which have been processed. |
