| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/mm_init: handle alloc_percpu failure in free_area_init_core_hotplug
We miss a failed allocation check for pgdat->per_cpu_nodestats, which
results in a NULL deref when we offset into the per-cpu area.
Propagate -ENOMEM up the stack and leave per_cpu_nodestats pointing
at boot_nodestats so a later online can retry the allocation.
hotadd_init_pgdat() returns NULL on failure, which __try_online_node()
already maps to -ENOMEM.
On failure nothing needs to be unwound:
- the node is never marked online
- per_cpu_nodestats is left pointing at boot_nodestats
- __add_memory_resource() cleans up pending memblock resources
- later online attempts retry the per_cpu_nodestats allocation |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86: lg-laptop: Fix LED resource handling
The event notification callback might access kbd_backlight even
when it was not successfully registered with the LED subsystem.
The same happens inside acpi_remove(), where the LED devices are
unregistered unconditionally.
Fix this by tracking the availability of the kbd_backlight LED
device and use devm_led_classdev_register() to let devres take
care of unregistering the LED devices during removal. For this
the parent device of the LED devices is changed to the native
platform device. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: arm_scmi: Publish channel state before callbacks
Transport setup can enable callbacks before the setup routine returns.
mailbox_chan_setup() registers the mailbox client with
mbox_request_channel(), and the mailbox controller startup path can enable
interrupt delivery before SCMI mailbox channel state has been published.
Similarly, smc_chan_setup() requests the optional A2P completion IRQ before
the SMC transport has made its cinfo pointer visible.
If a pending or spurious callback fires in those windows, the transport RX
callback can dereference a NULL transport cinfo pointer. Publishing only
the transport-private pointer is not sufficient either: an early callback
can enter the SCMI core before scmi_chan_setup() has assigned
cinfo->handle.
The core derives scmi_info from cinfo->handle in the RX path, so a NULL
handle can still fault even when the transport-private cinfo is valid.
Assign cinfo->handle before invoking the transport setup callback. Publish
the mailbox and SMC transport-private channel state before requesting the
mailbox channels or IRQ, and clear the early-published pointers again on
setup failure. Also unwind mailbox setup devres resources on failure so an
optional RX setup error that is ignored by the core does not leave stale
transport state behind. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firmware: qcom: scm: Fix NULL dereference in IRQ handler before __scm is published
In qcom_scm_probe(), devm_request_threaded_irq() is called before
smp_store_release(&__scm, scm). Two paths can dereference __scm before
it is published, both causing a NULL pointer dereference.
The IRQ handler receives scm via its data argument but passes only wq_ctx
to qcom_scm_waitq_wakeup() and qcom_scm_get_completion(), which then
dereference __scm directly. Thread scm through both functions so the IRQ
handler path never touches __scm.
Non-atomic SMC calls made during probe (e.g. from qcom_tzmem_init via
qcom_scm_shm_bridge_enable) can return WAITQ_SLEEP, causing
qcom_scm_wait_for_wq_completion() to run before __scm is published and
dereference it. Add platform_set_drvdata(pdev, scm) early in probe and
change qcom_scm_wait_for_wq_completion() to take the device pointer and
use dev_get_drvdata() to reach scm, removing any dependency on __scm. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmfmac: fix P2P action frame handling without device vif
Some P2P action frame paths assume the P2P device vif is always
available. That is not true when userspace sends non-P2P public action
frames through the primary interface, or when action-frame abort runs
after the P2P device vif has not been created.
Fall back to the primary vif when aborting an action frame without a P2P
device vif, and guard P2P device saved IE access before using it for
peer channel search. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: core: do fallible allocations before the console can be registered
serial_core_add_one_port() allocates uport->tty_groups after
uart_configure_port(), which may register the console. If the allocation
fails, the driver unwinds the port while its console remains registered.
The earlier uport->name allocation has a related failure path that leaves
state->uart_port linked to a port being freed.
Failslab reproduced a NULL dereference in PL011 console output and a KASAN
use-after-free in i.MX console output after failed binds.
Allocate the name and tty_groups before linking the port and configuring
it. Reserve space for the optional driver attribute group because
config_port() may populate uport->attr_group during configuration. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: skip cdev_del() when no cdev is registered
TTY device registration can fail before a cdev is allocated.
Serial core keeps the port so setserial can still use it, and later
removal passes the NULL cdev slot to cdev_del(), causing a NULL-pointer
dereference.
Only delete the cdev when the slot is not NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf, cgroup: Fix storage null-ptr-deref after replacing prog
Syzkaller reported a storage null-ptr-deref issue after replacing prog.
This occurs in the following scenario:
1. prog A, an empty prog, is attached to a cgrp.
2. prog B uses BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_CGROUP_STORAGE and calls the
bpf_get_local_storage helper.
3. link_update is called to replace prog A with prog B.
The reason is that __cgroup_bpf_replace fails to alloc and assign the
required cgrp storage for the incoming replacement prog. Consequently,
the new prog inherits an uninit storage, leading to null-ptr-deref panic
when kick the new prog.
Fix this by rejecting a link update if new_prog's cgroup storage is
incompatible with link->prog. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb/server: fix null-ptr-deref in ksmbd_ipc_tree_connect_request()
See the procedure below:
ksmbd_tree_conn_connect
ksmbd_share_config_get
share->name = kstrdup() // fail
if (!test_share_config_flag(share, KSMBD_SHARE_FLAG_PIPE)) // false
// do not check `share->name`
ksmbd_ipc_tree_connect_request
strlen(share->name) // null-ptr-deref |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ksmbd: safely discard unregistered deferred locks
When vfs_lock_file() defers a lock, smb2_lock() puts its ksmbd_lock on
rollback_list before allocating and registering the asynchronous work.
If either operation fails, rollback assumes that smb_lock->conn is
initialized and dereferences NULL. The deferred file_lock also remains
linked into the VFS blocked-lock state while it is freed.
Keep the lock off rollback_list until async setup succeeds. On setup
failures, explicitly unblock and wake the deferred lock before freeing it
and its ksmbd wrapper. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4/flexfiles: fix NULL dereference for NFSv4.0 data servers
flexfiles accepts NFSv4.0 data servers, but two NFSv4 code paths assume
the data server client has a session. Unlike NFSv4.1+, an NFSv4.0 client
has no session (clp->cl_session is NULL; it uses clp->cl_slot_tbl), so
I/O to a v4.0 flexfiles DS oopses:
- nfs4_init_ds_session() dereferences clp->cl_session->session_state
while seeding the DS lease. It also only seeds cl_lease_time when
NFS4_SESSION_INITING is set; without a session that never happens, so
cl_lease_time stays 0 and nfs4_renew_state() busy-loops, requeuing
every 5 seconds. Seed the lease whenever there is no session and
return before touching session state.
- ff_layout_async_handle_error_v4() dereferences
clp->cl_session->fc_slot_table on every DS I/O error. Fall back to the
v4.0 transport slot table (clp->cl_slot_tbl) when there is no session. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4: Fix incorrect argument passed to nfs4_delete_lease() in nfs4_add_lease()
When nfs4_add_lease() races with a delegation return, it calls
nfs4_delete_lease() to clean up. Previously, it passed priv,
which can legitimately be NULL. Passing a NULL priv eventually
leads to a NULL pointer dereference in generic_setlease(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dpll: fix NULL deref in dpll_device_ops() during teardown race
When the last owner of a dpll device unregisters while a foreign driver
still holds a pin on it via dpll_pin_on_pin_register(), the dpll object
stays alive with an empty registration list. A pin notification queued
before the unregister (e.g. ice reacting to zl3073x_i2c removal) then
walks pin->dpll_refs into dpll_device_ops(), which trips the WARN_ON and
dereferences the missing registration. dpll_lock cannot help because the
notification work was queued before the unregistering driver took the
lock.
Treat the empty registration list as a legitimate transient state. Make
dpll_priv() and dpll_device_ops() return NULL in that case and make
every pin netlink path that resolves a device from a pin skip such
dplls. dpll_cmd_pin_get_one() picks a ref with a live registration and
returns -ENODEV when there is none, the pin dumpit skips such a pin
instead of aborting the dump, dpll_msg_add_pin_dplls() and the
frequency, esync, reference sync and phase adjust set paths skip dead
refs, and dpll_pin_parent_device_set() validates the parent with
dpll_device_get_by_id(). dpll_pin_register() is the last caller that
dereferenced the device ops without a check, so move its frequency
monitor validation under dpll_lock and tolerate a missing registration
there as well.
The empty registration list is equivalent to a cleared DPLL_REGISTERED
mark, both transitions happen under dpll_lock in dpll_device_register()
and dpll_device_unregister(). A pin notification for a pin whose dplls
are all gone is now dropped with -ENODEV instead of crashing, all
callers in the core ignore that return value.

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000010
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
octeontx2-vf: fix workqueue and netdev race in probe/remove
Initialize the VF workqueue before register_netdev() so ndo_set_rx_mode
does not queue work on a NULL workqueue. Unregister the netdev before
destroying the workqueue, and add proper probe error cleanup. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: control: Don't add invalid kcontrols to LED layer
The kcontrol LED state layer tries to track the all associated
kcontrol elements with naive assumptions that they are readable.
But one can create a write-only element that has no get callback (even
a user element can do it), and this may lead to a NULL dereference at
the call chain of snd_ctl_led_notify(), as found by syzkaller.
For avoiding the Oops, add a sanity check of the kcontrol's info and
get callbacks, and just skip the invalid kcontrols before assigning
the kctl to the LED layer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_mass_storage: fix null pointer dereference in fsg_common_set_num_buffers()
Previously fsg_num_buffers_validate() was removed as it was not
necessary due to Kconfig setting the limits for n from 2 to 256 with
default as 2. However, setting the page content in such a way that
kstrtou8() reflects n value as either 0 or 1 bypasses these
restrictions leading to a null pointer dereference if n is 0. Fix
this by adding a check for n < 2 and returning -EINVAL if n is
either 0 or 1 consistent with Kconfig logic. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: vgic-its: Don't dereference a NULL collection on ITT save
MAPC with V=0 drops ite->collection but leaves the ITE on the device's
ITT list, and vgic_its_save_ite() dereferences it unconditionally. A
guest that issues MAPD, MAPTI and then MAPC(V=0) therefore oopses the
host when the VMM issues KVM_DEV_ARM_ITS_SAVE_TABLES to migrate it.
That sequence is UNPREDICTABLE per the architecture, but KVM already
handles the resulting state in the translate, MOVI and DISCARD paths.
Save a zeroed entry, which vgic_its_restore_ite() reads back as
invalid. Skipping the ITE instead would leave the ITT slot holding
whatever is in guest memory, and restore rejects an entry naming a
collection the restored collection table does not have. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: platform: mtk-mdp3: fix NULL deref on failed SCP lookup
Add the missing sanity check after looking up the SCP to avoid
dereferencing a NULL-pointer in case its driver has not yet been bound. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: avoid NULL checkpoint thread access in sysfs
checkpoint_merge can be enabled even when no checkpoint merge thread is
running. A read-only mount is one case: f2fs does not start
f2fs_issue_ckpt there, but ckpt_thread_ioprio is still writable through
sysfs.
The ckpt_thread_ioprio store path updates the saved ioprio value and,
when checkpoint_merge is enabled, calls set_task_ioprio() for the
checkpoint thread. If cprc->f2fs_issue_ckpt is NULL, that dereferences a
NULL task pointer.
Protect ckpt_thread_ioprio sysfs writes with s_umount as well, so the
checkpoint thread cannot disappear under the store path while updating
its ioprio. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/nouveau/uvmm: fix NULL deref unwinding an OP_MAP_SPARSE op
Each bind_job_op is zeroed by kzalloc_obj() in bind_job_op_from_uop(),
and the OP_MAP_SPARSE case in nouveau_uvmm_bind_job_submit() only creates
a region, so op->ops stays NULL for a successfully processed sparse map.
If a later op in the same job fails, the reverse unwind loop revisits that
op and calls drm_gpuva_ops_free(&uvmm->base, op->ops) unconditionally.
drm_gpuva_ops_free() dereferences its argument right away
(list_for_each_entry_safe on &ops->list), so a NULL op->ops oopses. The
path is reachable by any render-node fd holder, since NOUVEAU_VM_BIND is
DRM_RENDER_ALLOW.
Guard the free with IS_ERR_OR_NULL(), as nouveau_uvmm_bind_job_cleanup()
already does for the identical free. |
