In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: imx-card: Add NULL check in imx_card_probe() devm_kasprintf() returns NULL when memory allocation fails. Currently, imx_card_probe() does not check for this case, which results in a NULL pointer dereference. Add NULL check after devm_kasprintf() to prevent this issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/ipoib: Fix warning caused by destroying non-initial netns After the commit 5ce2dced8e95 ("RDMA/ipoib: Set rtnl_link_ops for ipoib interfaces"), if the IPoIB device is moved to non-initial netns, destroying that netns lets the device vanish instead of moving it back to the initial netns, This is happening because default_device_exit() skips the interfaces due to having rtnl_link_ops set.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: brcmfmac: fix NULL pointer dereference in brcmf_txfinalize() On removal of the device or unloading of the kernel module a potential NULL pointer dereference occurs. The following sequence deletes the interface: brcmf_detach() brcmf_remove_interface() brcmf_del_if() Inside the brcmf_del_if() function the drvr->if2bss[ifidx] is updated to BRCMF_BSSIDX_INVALID (-1) if the bsscfgidx matches. After brcmf_remove_interface() call the brcmf_proto_detach() function is called providing the following sequence: brcmf_detach() brcmf_proto_detach() brcmf_proto_msgbuf_detach() brcmf_flowring_detach() brcmf_msgbuf_delete_flowring() brcmf_msgbuf_remove_flowring() brcmf_flowring_delete() brcmf_get_ifp() brcmf_txfinalize() Since brcmf_get_ip() can and actually will return NULL in this case the call to brcmf_txfinalize() will result in a NULL pointer dereference inside brcmf_txfinalize() when trying to update ifp->ndev->stats.tx_errors. This will only happen if a flowring still has an skb. Although the NULL pointer dereference has only been seen when trying to update the tx statistic, all other uses of the ifp pointer have been guarded as well with an early return if ifp is NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: staging: gpib: Fix Oops after disconnect in agilent usb If the agilent usb dongle is disconnected subsequent calls to the driver cause a NULL dereference Oops as the bus_interface is set to NULL on disconnect. This problem was introduced by setting usb_dev from the bus_interface for dev_xxx messages. Previously bus_interface was checked for NULL only in the functions directly calling usb_fill_bulk_urb or usb_control_msg. Check for valid bus_interface on all interface entry points and return -ENODEV if it is NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sctp: sysctl: rto_min/max: avoid using current->nsproxy As mentioned in a previous commit of this series, using the 'net' structure via 'current' is not recommended for different reasons: - Inconsistency: getting info from the reader's/writer's netns vs only from the opener's netns. - current->nsproxy can be NULL in some cases, resulting in an 'Oops' (null-ptr-deref), e.g. when the current task is exiting, as spotted by syzbot [1] using acct(2). The 'net' structure can be obtained from the table->data using container_of(). Note that table->data could also be used directly, as this is the only member needed from the 'net' structure, but that would increase the size of this fix, to use '*data' everywhere 'net->sctp.rto_min/max' is used.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: powerpc/pseries/iommu: Don't unset window if it was never set On pSeries, when user attempts to use the same vfio container used by different iommu group, the spapr_tce_set_window() returns -EPERM and the subsequent cleanup leads to the below crash.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ice: fix NULL pointer dereference in ice_update_vsi_tx_ring_stats() It is possible to do NULL pointer dereference in routine that updates Tx ring stats. Currently only stats and bytes are updated when ring pointer is valid, but later on ring is accessed to propagate gathered Tx stats onto VSI stats. Change the existing logic to move to next ring when ring is NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfp: bpf: Add check for nfp_app_ctrl_msg_alloc() Add check for the return value of nfp_app_ctrl_msg_alloc() in nfp_bpf_cmsg_alloc() to prevent null pointer dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: USB: serial: quatech2: fix null-ptr-deref in qt2_process_read_urb() This patch addresses a null-ptr-deref in qt2_process_read_urb() due to an incorrect bounds check in the following: if (newport > serial->num_ports) { dev_err(&port->dev, "%s - port change to invalid port: %i\n", __func__, newport); break; } The condition doesn't account for the valid range of the serial->port buffer, which is from 0 to serial->num_ports - 1. When newport is equal to serial->num_ports, the assignment of "port" in the following code is out-of-bounds and NULL: serial_priv->current_port = newport; port = serial->port[serial_priv->current_port]; The fix checks if newport is greater than or equal to serial->num_ports indicating it is out-of-bounds.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: acct: perform last write from workqueue In [1] it was reported that the acct(2) system call can be used to trigger NULL deref in cases where it is set to write to a file that triggers an internal lookup. This can e.g., happen when pointing acc(2) to /sys/power/resume. At the point the where the write to this file happens the calling task has already exited and called exit_fs(). A lookup will thus trigger a NULL-deref when accessing current->fs. Reorganize the code so that the the final write happens from the workqueue but with the caller's credentials. This preserves the (strange) permission model and has almost no regression risk. This api should stop to exist though.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: Add check for mgmt_alloc_skb() in mgmt_remote_name() Add check for the return value of mgmt_alloc_skb() in mgmt_remote_name() to prevent null pointer dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: arm: pgtable: fix NULL pointer dereference issue When update_mmu_cache_range() is called by update_mmu_cache(), the vmf parameter is NULL, which will cause a NULL pointer dereference issue in adjust_pte(): Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000030 when read Hardware name: Atmel AT91SAM9 PC is at update_mmu_cache_range+0x1e0/0x278 LR is at pte_offset_map_rw_nolock+0x18/0x2c Call trace: update_mmu_cache_range from remove_migration_pte+0x29c/0x2ec remove_migration_pte from rmap_walk_file+0xcc/0x130 rmap_walk_file from remove_migration_ptes+0x90/0xa4 remove_migration_ptes from migrate_pages_batch+0x6d4/0x858 migrate_pages_batch from migrate_pages+0x188/0x488 migrate_pages from compact_zone+0x56c/0x954 compact_zone from compact_node+0x90/0xf0 compact_node from kcompactd+0x1d4/0x204 kcompactd from kthread+0x120/0x12c kthread from ret_from_fork+0x14/0x38 Exception stack(0xc0d8bfb0 to 0xc0d8bff8) To fix it, do not rely on whether 'ptl' is equal to decide whether to hold the pte lock, but decide it by whether CONFIG_SPLIT_PTE_PTLOCKS is enabled. In addition, if two vmas map to the same PTE page, there is no need to hold the pte lock again, otherwise a deadlock will occur. Just add the need_lock parameter to let adjust_pte() know this information.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla1280: Fix kernel oops when debug level > 2 A null dereference or oops exception will eventually occur when qla1280.c driver is compiled with DEBUG_QLA1280 enabled and ql_debug_level > 2. I think its clear from the code that the intention here is sg_dma_len(s) not length of sg_next(s) when printing the debug info.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: ucsi: Fix NULL pointer access Resources should be released only after all threads that utilize them have been destroyed. This commit ensures that resources are not released prematurely by waiting for the associated workqueue to complete before deallocating them.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sctp: sysctl: cookie_hmac_alg: avoid using current->nsproxy As mentioned in a previous commit of this series, using the 'net' structure via 'current' is not recommended for different reasons: - Inconsistency: getting info from the reader's/writer's netns vs only from the opener's netns. - current->nsproxy can be NULL in some cases, resulting in an 'Oops' (null-ptr-deref), e.g. when the current task is exiting, as spotted by syzbot [1] using acct(2).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ksmbd: fix null pointer dereference in alloc_preauth_hash() The Client send malformed smb2 negotiate request. ksmbd return error response. Subsequently, the client can send smb2 session setup even thought conn->preauth_info is not allocated. This patch add KSMBD_SESS_NEED_SETUP status of connection to ignore session setup request if smb2 negotiate phase is not complete.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sctp: sysctl: plpmtud_probe_interval: avoid using current->nsproxy As mentioned in a previous commit of this series, using the 'net' structure via 'current' is not recommended for different reasons: - Inconsistency: getting info from the reader's/writer's netns vs only from the opener's netns. - current->nsproxy can be NULL in some cases, resulting in an 'Oops' (null-ptr-deref), e.g. when the current task is exiting, as spotted by syzbot [1] using acct(2).

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: SOF: stream-ipc: Check for cstream nullity in sof_ipc_msg_data() The nullity of sps->cstream should be checked similarly as it is done in sof_set_stream_data_offset() function. Assuming that it is not NULL if sps->stream is NULL is incorrect and can lead to NULL pointer dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/vt-d: Avoid use of NULL after WARN_ON_ONCE There is a WARN_ON_ONCE to catch an unlikely situation when domain_remove_dev_pasid can't find the `pasid`. In case it nevertheless happens we must avoid using a NULL pointer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: cls_api: fix error handling causing NULL dereference tcf_exts_miss_cookie_base_alloc() calls xa_alloc_cyclic() which can return 1 if the allocation succeeded after wrapping. This was treated as an error, with value 1 returned to caller tcf_exts_init_ex() which sets exts->actions to NULL and returns 1 to caller fl_change(). fl_change() treats err == 1 as success, calling tcf_exts_validate_ex() which calls tcf_action_init() with exts->actions as argument, where it is dereferenced.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/dasd: fix Oops in dasd_alias_get_start_dev due to missing pavgroup Fix Oops in dasd_alias_get_start_dev() function caused by the pavgroup pointer being NULL. The pavgroup pointer is checked on the entrance of the function but without the lcu->lock being held. Therefore there is a race window between dasd_alias_get_start_dev() and _lcu_update() which sets pavgroup to NULL with the lcu->lock held. Fix by checking the pavgroup pointer with lcu->lock held.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: smb: client: Add check for next_buffer in receive_encrypted_standard() Add check for the return value of cifs_buf_get() and cifs_small_buf_get() in receive_encrypted_standard() to prevent null pointer dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: atm: Fix NULL pointer dereference When MPOA_cache_impos_rcvd() receives the msg, it can trigger Null Pointer Dereference Vulnerability if both entry and holding_time are NULL. Because there is only for the situation where entry is NULL and holding_time exists, it can be passed when both entry and holding_time are NULL. If these are NULL, the entry will be passd to eg_cache_put() as parameter and it is referenced by entry->use code in it. kasan log: [ 3.316691] Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000006:I [ 3.317568] KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000030-0x0000000000000037] [ 3.318188] CPU: 3 UID: 0 PID: 79 Comm: ex Not tainted 6.14.0-rc2 #102 [ 3.318601] Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.15.0-1 04/01/2014 [ 3.319298] RIP: 0010:eg_cache_remove_entry+0xa5/0x470 [ 3.319677] Code: c1 f7 6e fd 48 c7 c7 00 7e 38 b2 e8 95 64 54 fd 48 c7 c7 40 7e 38 b2 48 89 ee e80 [ 3.321220] RSP: 0018:ffff88800583f8a8 EFLAGS: 00010006 [ 3.321596] RAX: 0000000000000006 RBX: ffff888005989000 RCX: ffffffffaecc2d8e [ 3.322112] RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000004 RDI: 0000000000000030 [ 3.322643] RBP: 0000000000000000 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: fffffbfff6558b88 [ 3.323181] R10: 0000000000000003 R11: 203a207972746e65 R12: 1ffff11000b07f15 [ 3.323707] R13: dffffc0000000000 R14: ffff888005989000 R15: ffff888005989068 [ 3.324185] FS: 000000001b6313c0(0000) GS:ffff88806d380000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [ 3.325042] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [ 3.325545] CR2: 00000000004b4b40 CR3: 000000000248e000 CR4: 00000000000006f0 [ 3.326430] Call Trace: [ 3.326725] <TASK> [ 3.326927] ? die_addr+0x3c/0xa0 [ 3.327330] ? exc_general_protection+0x161/0x2a0 [ 3.327662] ? asm_exc_general_protection+0x26/0x30 [ 3.328214] ? vprintk_emit+0x15e/0x420 [ 3.328543] ? eg_cache_remove_entry+0xa5/0x470 [ 3.328910] ? eg_cache_remove_entry+0x9a/0x470 [ 3.329294] ? __pfx_eg_cache_remove_entry+0x10/0x10 [ 3.329664] ? console_unlock+0x107/0x1d0 [ 3.329946] ? __pfx_console_unlock+0x10/0x10 [ 3.330283] ? do_syscall_64+0xa6/0x1a0 [ 3.330584] ? entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x47/0x7f [ 3.331090] ? __pfx_prb_read_valid+0x10/0x10 [ 3.331395] ? down_trylock+0x52/0x80 [ 3.331703] ? vprintk_emit+0x15e/0x420 [ 3.331986] ? __pfx_vprintk_emit+0x10/0x10 [ 3.332279] ? down_trylock+0x52/0x80 [ 3.332527] ? _printk+0xbf/0x100 [ 3.332762] ? __pfx__printk+0x10/0x10 [ 3.333007] ? _raw_write_lock_irq+0x81/0xe0 [ 3.333284] ? __pfx__raw_write_lock_irq+0x10/0x10 [ 3.333614] msg_from_mpoad+0x1185/0x2750 [ 3.333893] ? __build_skb_around+0x27b/0x3a0 [ 3.334183] ? __pfx_msg_from_mpoad+0x10/0x10 [ 3.334501] ? __alloc_skb+0x1c0/0x310 [ 3.334809] ? __pfx___alloc_skb+0x10/0x10 [ 3.335283] ? _raw_spin_lock+0xe0/0xe0 [ 3.335632] ? finish_wait+0x8d/0x1e0 [ 3.335975] vcc_sendmsg+0x684/0xba0 [ 3.336250] ? __pfx_vcc_sendmsg+0x10/0x10 [ 3.336587] ? __pfx_autoremove_wake_function+0x10/0x10 [ 3.337056] ? fdget+0x176/0x3e0 [ 3.337348] __sys_sendto+0x4a2/0x510 [ 3.337663] ? __pfx___sys_sendto+0x10/0x10 [ 3.337969] ? ioctl_has_perm.constprop.0.isra.0+0x284/0x400 [ 3.338364] ? sock_ioctl+0x1bb/0x5a0 [ 3.338653] ? __rseq_handle_notify_resume+0x825/0xd20 [ 3.339017] ? __pfx_sock_ioctl+0x10/0x10 [ 3.339316] ? __pfx___rseq_handle_notify_resume+0x10/0x10 [ 3.339727] ? selinux_file_ioctl+0xa4/0x260 [ 3.340166] __x64_sys_sendto+0xe0/0x1c0 [ 3.340526] ? syscall_exit_to_user_mode+0x123/0x140 [ 3.340898] do_syscall_64+0xa6/0x1a0 [ 3.341170] entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f [ 3.341533] RIP: 0033:0x44a380 [ 3.341757] Code: 0f 1f 84 00 00 00 00 00 66 90 f3 0f 1e fa 41 89 ca 64 8b 04 25 18 00 00 00 85 c00 [ ---truncated---

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sctp: sysctl: udp_port: avoid using current->nsproxy As mentioned in a previous commit of this series, using the 'net' structure via 'current' is not recommended for different reasons: - Inconsistency: getting info from the reader's/writer's netns vs only from the opener's netns. - current->nsproxy can be NULL in some cases, resulting in an 'Oops' (null-ptr-deref), e.g. when the current task is exiting, as spotted by syzbot [1] using acct(2). The 'net' structure can be obtained from the table->data using container_of(). Note that table->data could also be used directly, but that would increase the size of this fix, while 'sctp.ctl_sock' still needs to be retrieved from 'net' structure.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: avoid NULL pointer dereference if no valid extent tree [BUG] Syzbot reported a crash with the following call trace: BTRFS info (device loop0): scrub: started on devid 1 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000208 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode #PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page PGD 106e70067 P4D 106e70067 PUD 107143067 PMD 0 Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 689 Comm: repro Kdump: loaded Tainted: G O 6.13.0-rc4-custom+ #206 Tainted: [O]=OOT_MODULE Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS unknown 02/02/2022 RIP: 0010:find_first_extent_item+0x26/0x1f0 [btrfs] Call Trace: <TASK> scrub_find_fill_first_stripe+0x13d/0x3b0 [btrfs] scrub_simple_mirror+0x175/0x260 [btrfs] scrub_stripe+0x5d4/0x6c0 [btrfs] scrub_chunk+0xbb/0x170 [btrfs] scrub_enumerate_chunks+0x2f4/0x5f0 [btrfs] btrfs_scrub_dev+0x240/0x600 [btrfs] btrfs_ioctl+0x1dc8/0x2fa0 [btrfs] ? do_sys_openat2+0xa5/0xf0 __x64_sys_ioctl+0x97/0xc0 do_syscall_64+0x4f/0x120 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x76/0x7e </TASK> [CAUSE] The reproducer is using a corrupted image where extent tree root is corrupted, thus forcing to use "rescue=all,ro" mount option to mount the image. Then it triggered a scrub, but since scrub relies on extent tree to find where the data/metadata extents are, scrub_find_fill_first_stripe() relies on an non-empty extent root. But unfortunately scrub_find_fill_first_stripe() doesn't really expect an NULL pointer for extent root, it use extent_root to grab fs_info and triggered a NULL pointer dereference. [FIX] Add an extra check for a valid extent root at the beginning of scrub_find_fill_first_stripe(). The new error path is introduced by 42437a6386ff ("btrfs: introduce mount option rescue=ignorebadroots"), but that's pretty old, and later commit b979547513ff ("btrfs: scrub: introduce helper to find and fill sector info for a scrub_stripe") changed how we do scrub. So for kernels older than 6.6, the fix will need manual backport.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: s390/qeth: fix NULL deref in qeth_clear_working_pool_list() When qeth_set_online() calls qeth_clear_working_pool_list() to roll back after an error exit from qeth_hardsetup_card(), we are at risk of accessing card->qdio.in_q before it was allocated by qeth_alloc_qdio_queues() via qeth_mpc_initialize(). qeth_clear_working_pool_list() then dereferences NULL, and by writing to queue->bufs[i].pool_entry scribbles all over the CPU's lowcore. Resulting in a crash when those lowcore areas are used next (eg. on the next machine-check interrupt). Such a scenario would typically happen when the device is first set online and its queues aren't allocated yet. An early IO error or certain misconfigs (eg. mismatched transport mode, bad portno) then cause us to error out from qeth_hardsetup_card() with card->qdio.in_q still being NULL. Fix it by checking the pointer for NULL before accessing it. Note that we also have (rare) paths inside qeth_mpc_initialize() where a configuration change can cause us to free the existing queues, expecting that subsequent code will allocate them again. If we then error out before that re-allocation happens, the same bug occurs. Root-caused-by: Heiko Carstens <hca@linux.ibm.com>

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cxl/region: Fix null pointer dereference for resetting decoder Not all decoders have a reset callback. The CXL specification allows a host bridge with a single root port to have no explicit HDM decoders. Currently the region driver assumes there are none. As such the CXL core creates a special pass through decoder instance without a commit/reset callback. Prior to this patch, the ->reset() callback was called unconditionally when calling cxl_region_decode_reset. Thus a configuration with 1 Host Bridge, 1 Root Port, and one directly attached CXL type 3 device or multiple CXL type 3 devices attached to downstream ports of a switch can cause a null pointer dereference. Before the fix, a kernel crash was observed when we destroy the region, and a pass through decoder is reset. The issue can be reproduced as below, 1) create a region with a CXL setup which includes a HB with a single root port under which a memdev is attached directly. 2) destroy the region with cxl destroy-region regionX -f.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s IP framework for transforming packets (XFRM subsystem). This issue may allow a malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges to directly dereference a NULL pointer in xfrm_update_ae_params(), leading to a possible kernel crash and denial of service.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: target: Fix NULL dereference on XCOPY completion CPU affinity control added with commit 39ae3edda325 ("scsi: target: core: Make completion affinity configurable") makes target_complete_cmd() queue work on a CPU based on se_tpg->se_tpg_wwn->cmd_compl_affinity state. LIO's EXTENDED COPY worker is a special case in that read/write cmds are dispatched using the global xcopy_pt_tpg, which carries a NULL se_tpg_wwn pointer following initialization in target_xcopy_setup_pt(). The NULL xcopy_pt_tpg->se_tpg_wwn pointer is dereferenced on completion of any EXTENDED COPY initiated read/write cmds.

But the following 'rc' check is wrong and execution flow do 'ocfs2_xa_remove_entry(loc);' twice: * 1st: in ocfs2_xa_cleanup_value_truncate(); * 2nd: returning back to ocfs2_xa_remove() instead of going to 'out'. Fix this by skipping the 2nd removal of the same entry and making syzkaller repro happy.

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel brcm_nvram_parse in drivers/nvmem/brcm_nvram.c. Lacks for the check of the return value of kzalloc() can cause the NULL Pointer Dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: accept TCA_STAB only for root qdisc Most qdiscs maintain their backlog using qdisc_pkt_len(skb) on the assumption it is invariant between the enqueue() and dequeue() handlers. Unfortunately syzbot can crash a host rather easily using a TBF + SFQ combination, with an STAB on SFQ [1] We can't support TCA_STAB on arbitrary level, this would require to maintain per-qdisc storage.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm: mxsfb: Fix NULL pointer dereference mxsfb should not ever dereference the NULL pointer which drm_atomic_get_new_bridge_state is allowed to return. Assume a fixed format instead.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Fix system hang while resume with TBT monitor [Why] Connected with a Thunderbolt monitor and do the suspend and the system may hang while resume. The TBT monitor HPD will be triggered during the resume procedure and call the drm_client_modeset_probe() while struct drm_connector connector->dev->master is NULL. It will mess up the pipe topology after resume. [How] Skip the TBT monitor HPD during the resume procedure because we currently will probe the connectors after resume by default. (cherry picked from commit 453f86a26945207a16b8f66aaed5962dc2b95b85)

An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel through 6.1-rc8. dpu_crtc_atomic_check in drivers/gpu/drm/msm/disp/dpu1/dpu_crtc.c lacks check of the return value of kzalloc() and will cause the NULL Pointer Dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mwifiex: Do not return unused priv in mwifiex_get_priv_by_id() mwifiex_get_priv_by_id() returns the priv pointer corresponding to the bss_num and bss_type, but without checking if the priv is actually currently in use. Unused priv pointers do not have a wiphy attached to them which can lead to NULL pointer dereferences further down the callstack. Fix this by returning only used priv pointers which have priv->bss_mode set to something else than NL80211_IFTYPE_UNSPECIFIED. Said NULL pointer dereference happened when an Accesspoint was started with wpa_supplicant -i mlan0 with this config: network={ ssid="somessid" mode=2 frequency=2412 key_mgmt=WPA-PSK WPA-PSK-SHA256 proto=RSN group=CCMP pairwise=CCMP psk="12345678" } When waiting for the AP to be established, interrupting wpa_supplicant with <ctrl-c> and starting it again this happens: | Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000140 | Mem abort info: | ESR = 0x0000000096000004 | EC = 0x25: DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits | SET = 0, FnV = 0 | EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 | FSC = 0x04: level 0 translation fault | Data abort info: | ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000004, ISS2 = 0x00000000 | CM = 0, WnR = 0, TnD = 0, TagAccess = 0 | GCS = 0, Overlay = 0, DirtyBit = 0, Xs = 0 | user pgtable: 4k pages, 48-bit VAs, pgdp=0000000046d96000 | [0000000000000140] pgd=0000000000000000, p4d=0000000000000000 | Internal error: Oops: 0000000096000004 [#1] PREEMPT SMP | Modules linked in: caam_jr caamhash_desc spidev caamalg_desc crypto_engine authenc libdes mwifiex_sdio +mwifiex crct10dif_ce cdc_acm onboard_usb_hub fsl_imx8_ddr_perf imx8m_ddrc rtc_ds1307 lm75 rtc_snvs +imx_sdma caam imx8mm_thermal spi_imx error imx_cpufreq_dt fuse ip_tables x_tables ipv6 | CPU: 0 PID: 8 Comm: kworker/0:1 Not tainted 6.9.0-00007-g937242013fce-dirty #18 | Hardware name: somemachine (DT) | Workqueue: events sdio_irq_work | pstate: 00000005 (nzcv daif -PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--) | pc : mwifiex_get_cfp+0xd8/0x15c [mwifiex] | lr : mwifiex_get_cfp+0x34/0x15c [mwifiex] | sp : ffff8000818b3a70 | x29: ffff8000818b3a70 x28: ffff000006bfd8a5 x27: 0000000000000004 | x26: 000000000000002c x25: 0000000000001511 x24: 0000000002e86bc9 | x23: ffff000006bfd996 x22: 0000000000000004 x21: ffff000007bec000 | x20: 000000000000002c x19: 0000000000000000 x18: 0000000000000000 | x17: 000000040044ffff x16: 00500072b5503510 x15: ccc283740681e517 | x14: 0201000101006d15 x13: 0000000002e8ff43 x12: 002c01000000ffb1 | x11: 0100000000000000 x10: 02e8ff43002c0100 x9 : 0000ffb100100157 | x8 : ffff000003d20000 x7 : 00000000000002f1 x6 : 00000000ffffe124 | x5 : 0000000000000001 x4 : 0000000000000003 x3 : 0000000000000000 | x2 : 0000000000000000 x1 : 0001000000011001 x0 : 0000000000000000 | Call trace: | mwifiex_get_cfp+0xd8/0x15c [mwifiex] | mwifiex_parse_single_response_buf+0x1d0/0x504 [mwifiex] | mwifiex_handle_event_ext_scan_report+0x19c/0x2f8 [mwifiex] | mwifiex_process_sta_event+0x298/0xf0c [mwifiex] | mwifiex_process_event+0x110/0x238 [mwifiex] | mwifiex_main_process+0x428/0xa44 [mwifiex] | mwifiex_sdio_interrupt+0x64/0x12c [mwifiex_sdio] | process_sdio_pending_irqs+0x64/0x1b8 | sdio_irq_work+0x4c/0x7c | process_one_work+0x148/0x2a0 | worker_thread+0x2fc/0x40c | kthread+0x110/0x114 | ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20 | Code: a94153f3 a8c37bfd d50323bf d65f03c0 (f940a000) | ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]---

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: brcmfmac: cfg80211: Handle SSID based pmksa deletion wpa_supplicant 2.11 sends since 1efdba5fdc2c ("Handle PMKSA flush in the driver for SAE/OWE offload cases") SSID based PMKSA del commands. brcmfmac is not prepared and tries to dereference the NULL bssid and pmkid pointers in cfg80211_pmksa. PMKID_V3 operations support SSID based updates so copy the SSID.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: arm64: Make ICC_*SGI*_EL1 undef in the absence of a vGICv3 On a system with a GICv3, if a guest hasn't been configured with GICv3 and that the host is not capable of GICv2 emulation, a write to any of the ICC_*SGI*_EL1 registers is trapped to EL2. We therefore try to emulate the SGI access, only to hit a NULL pointer as no private interrupt is allocated (no GIC, remember?). The obvious fix is to give the guest what it deserves, in the shape of a UNDEF exception.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe: reset mmio mappings with devm Set our various mmio mappings to NULL. This should make it easier to catch something rogue trying to mess with mmio after device removal. For example, we might unmap everything and then start hitting some mmio address which has already been unmamped by us and then remapped by something else, causing all kinds of carnage.
