| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: processor: Fix NULL-pointer dereference in acpi_processor_errata_piix4()
In acpi_processor_errata_piix4(), the pointer dev is first assigned an IDE
device and then reassigned an ISA device:
dev = pci_get_subsys(..., PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_82371AB, ...);
dev = pci_get_subsys(..., PCI_DEVICE_ID_INTEL_82371AB_0, ...);
If the first lookup succeeds but the second fails, dev becomes NULL. This
leads to a potential null-pointer dereference when dev_dbg() is called:
if (errata.piix4.bmisx)
dev_dbg(&dev->dev, ...);
To prevent this, use two temporary pointers and retrieve each device
independently, avoiding overwriting dev with a possible NULL value.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: amd: acp3x-rt5682-max9836: Add missing error check for clock acquisition
The acp3x_5682_init() function did not check the return value of
clk_get(), which could lead to dereferencing error pointers in
rt5682_clk_enable().
Fix this by:
1. Changing clk_get() to the device-managed devm_clk_get().
2. Adding proper IS_ERR() checks for both clock acquisitions. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: fix null dereference in find_network
The variable pwlan has the possibility of being NULL when passed into
rtw_free_network_nolock() which would later dereference the variable. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: magicmouse: Do not crash on missing msc->input
Fake USB devices can send their own report descriptors for which the
input_mapping() hook does not get called. In this case, msc->input stays NULL,
leading to a crash at a later time.
Detect this condition in the input_configured() hook and reject the device.
This is not supposed to happen with actual magic mouse devices, but can be
provoked by imposing as a magic mouse USB device. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbcon: check return value of con2fb_acquire_newinfo()
If fbcon_open() fails when called from con2fb_acquire_newinfo() then
info->fbcon_par pointer remains NULL which is later dereferenced.
Add check for return value of the function con2fb_acquire_newinfo() to
avoid it.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: usb: asix_devices: add phy_mask for ax88772 mdio bus
Without setting phy_mask for ax88772 mdio bus, current driver may create
at most 32 mdio phy devices with phy address range from 0x00 ~ 0x1f.
DLink DUB-E100 H/W Ver B1 is such a device. However, only one main phy
device will bind to net phy driver. This is creating issue during system
suspend/resume since phy_polling_mode() in phy_state_machine() will
directly deference member of phydev->drv for non-main phy devices. Then
NULL pointer dereference issue will occur. Due to only external phy or
internal phy is necessary, add phy_mask for ax88772 mdio bus to workarnoud
the issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: xhci: Fix NULL pointer dereference on certain command aborts
If a command is queued to the final usable TRB of a ring segment, the
enqueue pointer is advanced to the subsequent link TRB and no further.
If the command is later aborted, when the abort completion is handled
the dequeue pointer is advanced to the first TRB of the next segment.
If no further commands are queued, xhci_handle_stopped_cmd_ring() sees
the ring pointers unequal and assumes that there is a pending command,
so it calls xhci_mod_cmd_timer() which crashes if cur_cmd was NULL.
Don't attempt timer setup if cur_cmd is NULL. The subsequent doorbell
ring likely is unnecessary too, but it's harmless. Leave it alone.
This is probably Bug 219532, but no confirmation has been received.
The issue has been independently reproduced and confirmed fixed using
a USB MCU programmed to NAK the Status stage of SET_ADDRESS forever.
Everything continued working normally after several prevented crashes. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: core: Check for unset descriptor
Make sure the descriptor has been set before looking at maxpacket.
This fixes a null pointer panic in this case.
This may happen if the gadget doesn't properly set up the endpoint
for the current speed, or the gadget descriptors are malformed and
the descriptor for the speed/endpoint are not found.
No current gadget driver is known to have this problem, but this
may cause a hard-to-find bug during development of new gadgets. |

netfilter: tproxy: bail out if IP has been disabled on the device

sch_htb: make htb_deactivate() idempotent
Alan reported a NULL pointer dereference in htb_next_rb_node()
after we made htb_qlen_notify() idempotent.
It turns out in the following case it introduced some regression:
htb_dequeue_tree():
|-> fq_codel_dequeue()
|-> qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog()
|-> htb_qlen_notify()
|-> htb_deactivate()
|-> htb_next_rb_node()
|-> htb_deactivate()
For htb_next_rb_node(), after calling the 1st htb_deactivate(), the
clprio[prio]->ptr could be already set to NULL, which means
htb_next_rb_node() is vulnerable here.
For htb_deactivate(), although we checked qlen before calling it, in
case of qlen==0 after qdisc_tree_reduce_backlog(), we may call it again
which triggers the warning inside.
To fix the issues here, we need to:
1) Make htb_deactivate() idempotent, that is, simply return if we
already call it before.
2) Make htb_next_rb_node() safe against ptr==NULL.
Many thanks to Alan for testing and for the reproducer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: prodikeys: Check presence of pm->input_ep82
Fake USB devices can send their own report descriptors for which the
input_mapping() hook does not get called. In this case, pm->input_ep82 stays
NULL, which leads to a crash later.
This does not happen with the real device, but can be provoked by imposing as
one. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: af-alg - fix NULL pointer dereference in scatterwalk
The AF_ALG interface fails to unmark the end of a Scatter/Gather List (SGL)
when chaining a new af_alg_tsgl structure. If a sendmsg() fills an SGL
exactly to MAX_SGL_ENTS, the last entry is marked as the end. A subsequent
sendmsg() allocates a new SGL and chains it, but fails to clear the end
marker on the previous SGL's last data entry.
This causes the crypto scatterwalk to hit a premature end, returning NULL
on sg_next() and leading to a kernel panic during dereference.
Fix this by explicitly unmarking the end of the previous SGL when
performing sg_chain() in af_alg_alloc_tsgl(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pstore: ram_core: fix incorrect success return when vmap() fails
In persistent_ram_vmap(), vmap() may return NULL on failure.
If offset is non-zero, adding offset_in_page(start) causes the function
to return a non-NULL pointer even though the mapping failed.
persistent_ram_buffer_map() therefore incorrectly returns success.
Subsequent access to prz->buffer may dereference an invalid address
and cause crashes.
Add proper NULL checking for vmap() failures. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: mtk-mdp: Fix error handling in probe function
Add mtk_mdp_unregister_m2m_device() on the error handling path to prevent
resource leak.
Add check for the return value of vpu_get_plat_device() to prevent null
pointer dereference. And vpu_get_plat_device() increases the reference
count of the returned platform device. Add platform_device_put() to
prevent reference leak. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: lag: Check for LAG device before creating debugfs
__mlx5_lag_dev_add_mdev() may return 0 (success) even when an error
occurs that is handled gracefully. Consequently, the initialization
flow proceeds to call mlx5_ldev_add_debugfs() even when there is no
valid LAG context.
mlx5_ldev_add_debugfs() blindly created the debugfs directory and
attributes. This exposed interfaces (like the members file) that rely on
a valid ldev pointer, leading to potential NULL pointer dereferences if
accessed when ldev is NULL.
Add a check to verify that mlx5_lag_dev(dev) returns a valid pointer
before attempting to create the debugfs entries. |
| 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. |
| 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`. |

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):
[ 814.123447][ T947] configfs-gadget.g1 gadget.0: uvc: uvc_function_unbind()

[ 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:

[ 814.404095][ T4558] v4l2_release+0xcc/0x130
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. |

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:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
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. |
