In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu: sprd: Avoid NULL deref in sprd_iommu_hw_en In sprd_iommu_cleanup() before calling function sprd_iommu_hw_en() dom->sdev is equal to NULL, which leads to null dereference. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the UNIX protocol in net/unix/diag.c In unix_diag_get_exact in the Linux Kernel. The newly allocated skb does not have sk, leading to a NULL pointer. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially cause a denial of service.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tpm: Use auth only after NULL check in tpm_buf_check_hmac_response() Dereference auth after NULL check in tpm_buf_check_hmac_response(). Otherwise, unless tpm2_sessions_init() was called, a call can cause NULL dereference, when TCG_TPM2_HMAC is enabled. [jarkko: adjusted the commit message.]

Add a check to avoid npd.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: iptables: Fix null-ptr-deref in iptable_nat_table_init(). We had a report that iptables-restore sometimes triggered null-ptr-deref at boot time. [0] The problem is that iptable_nat_table_init() is exposed to user space before the kernel fully initialises netns. In the small race window, a user could call iptable_nat_table_init() that accesses net_generic(net, iptable_nat_net_id), which is available only after registering iptable_nat_net_ops. Let's call register_pernet_subsys() before xt_register_template().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: fsl: fsl_qmc_audio: Check devm_kasprintf() returned value devm_kasprintf() can return a NULL pointer on failure but this returned value is not checked. Fix this lack and check the returned value.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: Fix smatch static checker warning adev->gfx.imu.funcs could be NULL

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: fsl-asoc-card: set priv->pdev before using it priv->pdev pointer was set after being used in fsl_asoc_card_audmux_init(). Move this assignment at the start of the probe function, so sub-functions can correctly use pdev through priv. fsl_asoc_card_audmux_init() dereferences priv->pdev to get access to the dev struct, used with dev_err macros. As priv is zero-initialised, there would be a NULL pointer dereference. Note that if priv->dev is dereferenced before assignment but never used, for example if there is no error to be printed, the driver won't crash probably due to compiler optimisations.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cifs: fix potential null pointer use in destroy_workqueue in init_cifs error path Dan Carpenter reported a Smack static checker warning: fs/smb/client/cifsfs.c:1981 init_cifs() error: we previously assumed 'serverclose_wq' could be null (see line 1895) The patch which introduced the serverclose workqueue used the wrong oredering in error paths in init_cifs() for freeing it on errors.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Check BIOS images before it is used BIOS images may fail to load and null checks are added before they are used. This fixes 6 NULL_RETURNS issues reported by Coverity.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ata: libata-core: Fix null pointer dereference on error If the ata_port_alloc() call in ata_host_alloc() fails, ata_host_release() will get called. However, the code in ata_host_release() tries to free ata_port struct members unconditionally, which can lead to the following: BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000000000003990 PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI CPU: 10 PID: 594 Comm: (udev-worker) Not tainted 6.10.0-rc5 #44 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.16.3-2.fc40 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:ata_host_release.cold+0x2f/0x6e [libata] Code: e4 4d 63 f4 44 89 e2 48 c7 c6 90 ad 32 c0 48 c7 c7 d0 70 33 c0 49 83 c6 0e 41 RSP: 0018:ffffc90000ebb968 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: 0000000000000041 RBX: ffff88810fb52e78 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: ffff88813b3218c0 RDI: ffff88813b3218c0 RBP: ffff88810fb52e40 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 6c65725f74736f68 R10: ffffc90000ebb738 R11: 73692033203a746e R12: 0000000000000004 R13: 0000000000000000 R14: 0000000000000011 R15: 0000000000000006 FS: 00007f6cc55b9980(0000) GS:ffff88813b300000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000000003990 CR3: 00000001122a2000 CR4: 0000000000750ef0 PKRU: 55555554 Call Trace: <TASK> ? __die_body.cold+0x19/0x27 ? page_fault_oops+0x15a/0x2f0 ? exc_page_fault+0x7e/0x180 ? asm_exc_page_fault+0x26/0x30 ? ata_host_release.cold+0x2f/0x6e [libata] ? ata_host_release.cold+0x2f/0x6e [libata] release_nodes+0x35/0xb0 devres_release_group+0x113/0x140 ata_host_alloc+0xed/0x120 [libata] ata_host_alloc_pinfo+0x14/0xa0 [libata] ahci_init_one+0x6c9/0xd20 [ahci] Do not access ata_port struct members unconditionally.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: netfilter: iptables: Fix potential null-ptr-deref in ip6table_nat_table_init(). ip6table_nat_table_init() accesses net->gen->ptr[ip6table_nat_net_ops.id], but the function is exposed to user space before the entry is allocated via register_pernet_subsys(). Let's call register_pernet_subsys() before xt_register_template().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fs: don't misleadingly warn during thaw operations The block device may have been frozen before it was claimed by a filesystem. Concurrently another process might try to mount that frozen block device and has temporarily claimed the block device for that purpose causing a concurrent fs_bdev_thaw() to end up here. The mounter is already about to abort mounting because they still saw an elevanted bdev->bd_fsfreeze_count so get_bdev_super() will return NULL in that case. For example, P1 calls dm_suspend() which calls into bdev_freeze() before the block device has been claimed by the filesystem. This brings bdev->bd_fsfreeze_count to 1 and no call into fs_bdev_freeze() is required. Now P2 tries to mount that frozen block device. It claims it and checks bdev->bd_fsfreeze_count. As it's elevated it aborts mounting. In the meantime P3 called dm_resume(). P3 sees that the block device is already claimed by a filesystem and calls into fs_bdev_thaw(). P3 takes a passive reference and realizes that the filesystem isn't ready yet. P3 puts itself to sleep to wait for the filesystem to become ready. P2 now puts the last active reference to the filesystem and marks it as dying. P3 gets woken, sees that the filesystem is dying and get_bdev_super() fails.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: Intel: Boards: Fix NULL pointer deref in BYT/CHT boards harder Since commit 13f58267cda3 ("ASoC: soc.h: don't create dummy Component via COMP_DUMMY()") dummy codecs declared like this: SND_SOC_DAILINK_DEF(dummy, DAILINK_COMP_ARRAY(COMP_DUMMY())); expand to: static struct snd_soc_dai_link_component dummy[] = { }; Which means that dummy is a zero sized array and thus dais[i].codecs should not be dereferenced *at all* since it points to the address of the next variable stored in the data section as the "dummy" variable has an address but no size, so even dereferencing dais[0] is already an out of bounds array reference. Which means that the if (dais[i].codecs->name) check added in commit 7d99a70b6595 ("ASoC: Intel: Boards: Fix NULL pointer deref in BYT/CHT boards") relies on that the part of the next variable which the name member maps to just happens to be NULL. Which apparently so far it usually is, except when it isn't and then it results in crashes like this one: [ 28.795659] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 0000000000030011 ...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/nouveau/dispnv04: fix null pointer dereference in nv17_tv_get_ld_modes In nv17_tv_get_ld_modes(), the return value of drm_mode_duplicate() is assigned to mode, which will lead to a possible NULL pointer dereference on failure of drm_mode_duplicate(). Add a check to avoid npd.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu: Return right value in iommu_sva_bind_device() iommu_sva_bind_device() should return either a sva bond handle or an ERR_PTR value in error cases. Existing drivers (idxd and uacce) only check the return value with IS_ERR(). This could potentially lead to a kernel NULL pointer dereference issue if the function returns NULL instead of an error pointer. In reality, this doesn't cause any problems because iommu_sva_bind_device() only returns NULL when the kernel is not configured with CONFIG_IOMMU_SVA. In this case, iommu_dev_enable_feature(dev, IOMMU_DEV_FEAT_SVA) will return an error, and the device drivers won't call iommu_sva_bind_device() at all.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda: fix null deref on system suspend entry When system enters suspend with an active stream, SOF core calls hw_params_upon_resume(). On Intel platforms with HDA DMA used to manage the link DMA, this leads to call chain of hda_dsp_set_hw_params_upon_resume() -> hda_dsp_dais_suspend() -> hda_dai_suspend() -> hda_ipc4_post_trigger() A bug is hit in hda_dai_suspend() as hda_link_dma_cleanup() is run first, which clears hext_stream->link_substream, and then hda_ipc4_post_trigger() is called with a NULL snd_pcm_substream pointer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bnxt_en: Adjust logging of firmware messages in case of released token in __hwrm_send() In case of token is released due to token->state == BNXT_HWRM_DEFERRED, released token (set to NULL) is used in log messages. This issue is expected to be prevented by HWRM_ERR_CODE_PF_UNAVAILABLE error code. But this error code is returned by recent firmware. So some firmware may not return it. This may lead to NULL pointer dereference. Adjust this issue by adding token pointer check. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: ethtool: fix the error condition in ethtool_get_phy_stats_ethtool() Clang static checker (scan-build) warning: net/ethtool/ioctl.c:line 2233, column 2 Called function pointer is null (null dereference).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: mtk-vcodec: potential null pointer deference in SCP The return value of devm_kzalloc() needs to be checked to avoid NULL pointer deference. This is similar to CVE-2022-3113.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: avoid using null object of framebuffer Instead of using state->fb->obj[0] directly, get object from framebuffer by calling drm_gem_fb_get_obj() and return error code when object is null to avoid using null object of framebuffer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/radeon: check bo_va->bo is non-NULL before using it The call to radeon_vm_clear_freed might clear bo_va->bo, so we have to check it before dereferencing it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/msm/dpu: move dpu_encoder's connector assignment to atomic_enable() For cases where the crtc's connectors_changed was set without enable/active getting toggled , there is an atomic_enable() call followed by an atomic_disable() but without an atomic_mode_set(). This results in a NULL ptr access for the dpu_encoder_get_drm_fmt() call in the atomic_enable() as the dpu_encoder's connector was cleared in the atomic_disable() but not re-assigned as there was no atomic_mode_set() call. Fix the NULL ptr access by moving the assignment for atomic_enable() and also use drm_atomic_get_new_connector_for_encoder() to get the connector from the atomic_state. Patchwork: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/606729/

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: fix null ptr deref on hci_sync_conn_complete_evt This event is just specified for SCO and eSCO link types. On the reception of a HCI_Synchronous_Connection_Complete for a BDADDR of an existing LE connection, LE link type and a status that triggers the second case of the packet processing a NULL pointer dereference happens, as conn->link is NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: null_blk: fix validation of block size Block size should be between 512 and PAGE_SIZE and be a power of 2. The current check does not validate this, so update the check. Without this patch, null_blk would Oops due to a null pointer deref when loaded with bs=1536 [1].

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the az6027 driver in drivers/media/usb/dev-usb/az6027.c in the Linux Kernel. The message from user space is not checked properly before transferring into the device. This flaw allows a local user to crash the system or potentially cause a denial of service.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb/client: avoid possible NULL dereference in cifs_free_subrequest() Clang static checker (scan-build) warning: cifsglob.h:line 890, column 3 Access to field 'ops' results in a dereference of a null pointer. Commit 519be989717c ("cifs: Add a tracepoint to track credits involved in R/W requests") adds a check for 'rdata->server', and let clang throw this warning about NULL dereference. When 'rdata->credits.value != 0 && rdata->server == NULL' happens, add_credits_and_wake_if() will call rdata->server->ops->add_credits(). This will cause NULL dereference problem. Add a check for 'rdata->server' to avoid NULL dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cxl/region: Avoid null pointer dereference in region lookup cxl_dpa_to_region() looks up a region based on a memdev and DPA. It wrongly assumes an endpoint found mapping the DPA is also of a fully assembled region. When not true it leads to a null pointer dereference looking up the region name. This appears during testing of region lookup after a failure to assemble a BIOS defined region or if the lookup raced with the assembly of the BIOS defined region. Failure to clean up BIOS defined regions that fail assembly is an issue in itself and a fix to that problem will alleviate some of the impact. It will not alleviate the race condition so let's harden this path. The behavior change is that the kernel oops due to a null pointer dereference is replaced with a dev_dbg() message noting that an endpoint was mapped. Additional comments are added so that future users of this function can more clearly understand what it provides.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Add null check in resource_log_pipe_topology_update [WHY] When switching from "Extend" to "Second Display Only" we sometimes call resource_get_otg_master_for_stream on a stream for the eDP, which is disconnected. This leads to a null pointer dereference. [HOW] Added a null check in dc_resource.c/resource_log_pipe_topology_update.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: io_uring: check for non-NULL file pointer in io_file_can_poll() In earlier kernels, it was possible to trigger a NULL pointer dereference off the forced async preparation path, if no file had been assigned.

Current kernels with the request async prep cleaned up can no longer hit this issue, but for ease of backporting, let's add this safety check in here too as it really doesn't hurt. For both cases, this will inevitably end with a CQE posted with -EBADF.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/mst: Fix NULL pointer dereference at drm_dp_add_payload_part2 [Why] Commit: - commit 5aa1dfcdf0a4 ("drm/mst: Refactor the flow for payload allocation/removement") accidently overwrite the commit - commit 54d217406afe ("drm: use mgr->dev in drm_dbg_kms in drm_dp_add_payload_part2") which cause regression. [How] Recover the original NULL fix and remove the unnecessary input parameter 'state' for drm_dp_add_payload_part2(). (cherry picked from commit 4545614c1d8da603e57b60dd66224d81b6ffc305)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: SOF: ipc4-topology: Fix input format query of process modules without base extension If a process module does not have base config extension then the same format applies to all of it's inputs and the process->base_config_ext is NULL, causing NULL dereference when specifically crafted topology and sequences used.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: liquidio: Adjust a NULL pointer handling path in lio_vf_rep_copy_packet In lio_vf_rep_copy_packet() pg_info->page is compared to a NULL value, but then it is unconditionally passed to skb_add_rx_frag() which looks strange and could lead to null pointer dereference. lio_vf_rep_copy_packet() call trace looks like: octeon_droq_process_packets octeon_droq_fast_process_packets octeon_droq_dispatch_pkt octeon_create_recv_info ...search in the dispatch_list... ->disp_fn(rdisp->rinfo, ...) lio_vf_rep_pkt_recv(struct octeon_recv_info *recv_info, ...) In this path there is no code which sets pg_info->page to NULL. So this check looks unneeded and doesn't solve potential problem. But I guess the author had reason to add a check and I have no such card and can't do real test. In addition, the code in the function liquidio_push_packet() in liquidio/lio_core.c does exactly the same. Based on this, I consider the most acceptable compromise solution to adjust this issue by moving skb_add_rx_frag() into conditional scope. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: thermal/drivers/qcom/lmh: Check for SCM availability at probe Up until now, the necessary scm availability check has not been performed, leading to possible null pointer dereferences (which did happen for me on RB1). Fix that.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: eventfs: Fix a possible null pointer dereference in eventfs_find_events() In function eventfs_find_events,there is a potential null pointer that may be caused by calling update_events_attr which will perform some operations on the members of the ei struct when ei is NULL. Hence,When ei->is_freed is set,return NULL directly.
