In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qedf: Add pointer checks in qedf_update_link_speed() The following trace was observed: [ 14.042059] Call Trace: [ 14.042061] <IRQ> [ 14.042068] qedf_link_update+0x144/0x1f0 [qedf] [ 14.042117] qed_link_update+0x5c/0x80 [qed] [ 14.042135] qed_mcp_handle_link_change+0x2d2/0x410 [qed] [ 14.042155] ? qed_set_ptt+0x70/0x80 [qed] [ 14.042170] ? qed_set_ptt+0x70/0x80 [qed] [ 14.042186] ? qed_rd+0x13/0x40 [qed] [ 14.042205] qed_mcp_handle_events+0x437/0x690 [qed] [ 14.042221] ? qed_set_ptt+0x70/0x80 [qed] [ 14.042239] qed_int_sp_dpc+0x3a6/0x3e0 [qed] [ 14.042245] tasklet_action_common.isra.14+0x5a/0x100 [ 14.042250] __do_softirq+0xe4/0x2f8 [ 14.042253] irq_exit+0xf7/0x100 [ 14.042255] do_IRQ+0x7f/0xd0 [ 14.042257] common_interrupt+0xf/0xf [ 14.042259] </IRQ> API qedf_link_update() is getting called from QED but by that time shost_data is not initialised.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: wilc1000: fix potential RCU dereference issue in wilc_parse_join_bss_param In the `wilc_parse_join_bss_param` function, the TSF field of the `ies` structure is accessed after the RCU read-side critical section is unlocked. According to RCU usage rules, this is illegal. Reusing this pointer can lead to unpredictable behavior, including accessing memory that has been updated or causing use-after-free issues. This possible bug was identified using a static analysis tool developed by myself, specifically designed to detect RCU-related issues. To address this, the TSF value is now stored in a local variable `ies_tsf` before the RCU lock is released. The `param->tsf_lo` field is then assigned using this local variable, ensuring that the TSF value is safely accessed.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: platform/x86: ideapad-laptop: fix a NULL pointer dereference The third parameter of dytc_cql_command should not be NULL since it will be dereferenced immediately.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: SVM: Use online_vcpus, not created_vcpus, to iterate over vCPUs Use the kvm_for_each_vcpu() helper to iterate over vCPUs when encrypting VMSAs for SEV, which effectively switches to use online_vcpus instead of created_vcpus. This fixes a possible null-pointer dereference as created_vcpus does not guarantee a vCPU exists, since it is updated at the very beginning of KVM_CREATE_VCPU. created_vcpus exists to allow the bulk of vCPU creation to run in parallel, while still correctly restricting the max number of max vCPUs.

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in vmxnet3_rq_cleanup in drivers/net/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_drv.c in the networking sub-component in vmxnet3 in the Linux Kernel. This issue may allow a local attacker with normal user privilege to cause a denial of service due to a missing sanity check during cleanup.

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. Addresses-Coverity: ("Dereference after null check")

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: spi: spi-zynq-qspi: Fix a NULL pointer dereference in zynq_qspi_exec_mem_op() In zynq_qspi_exec_mem_op(), kzalloc() is directly used in memset(), which could lead to a NULL pointer dereference on failure of kzalloc(). Fix this bug by adding a check of tmpbuf. This bug was found by a static analyzer. The analysis employs differential checking to identify inconsistent security operations (e.g., checks or kfrees) between two code paths and confirms that the inconsistent operations are not recovered in the current function or the callers, so they constitute bugs. Note that, as a bug found by static analysis, it can be a false positive or hard to trigger. Multiple researchers have cross-reviewed the bug. Builds with CONFIG_SPI_ZYNQ_QSPI=m show no new warnings, and our static analyzer no longer warns about this code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: can: af_can: fix NULL pointer dereference in can_rcv_filter Analogue to commit 8aa59e355949 ("can: af_can: fix NULL pointer dereference in can_rx_register()") we need to check for a missing initialization of ml_priv in the receive path of CAN frames. Since commit 4e096a18867a ("net: introduce CAN specific pointer in the struct net_device") the check for dev->type to be ARPHRD_CAN is not sufficient anymore since bonding or tun netdevices claim to be CAN devices but do not initialize ml_priv accordingly.

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s KVM module, which can lead to a denial of service in the x86_emulate_insn in arch/x86/kvm/emulate.c. This flaw occurs while executing an illegal instruction in guest in the Intel CPU.

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.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: apparmor: fix possible NULL pointer dereference profile->parent->dents[AAFS_PROF_DIR] could be NULL only if its parent is made from __create_missing_ancestors(..) and 'ent->old' is NULL in aa_replace_profiles(..). In that case, it must return an error code and the code, -ENOENT represents its state that the path of its parent is not existed yet.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: af_unix: Get user_ns from in_skb in unix_diag_get_exact(). Wei Chen reported a NULL deref in sk_user_ns() [0][1], and Paolo diagnosed the root cause: in unix_diag_get_exact(), the newly allocated skb does not have sk. [2] We must get the user_ns from the NETLINK_CB(in_skb).sk and pass it to sk_diag_fill().

Note that after this change, there are no settings to change on the PF interface using `bridge link` when there are no VFs, so the interface no longer appears in the `bridge link` output.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7921: fix NULL pointer access in mt7921_ipv6_addr_change When disabling wifi mt7921_ipv6_addr_change() is called as a notifier. At this point mvif->phy is already NULL so we cannot use it here.

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.

The above added iommu_device structure to pci_controller. During system boot, PCI devices are discovered and this newly added iommu_device structure is initialized by a call to iommu_device_register(). During DLPAR add of a PCI device, a new pci_controller structure is allocated but there are no calls made to iommu_device_register() interface. Fix is to register the iommu device during DLPAR add as well.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: ucsi: Move unregister out of atomic section Commit '9329933699b3 ("soc: qcom: pmic_glink: Make client-lock non-sleeping")' moved the pmic_glink client list under a spinlock, as it is accessed by the rpmsg/glink callback, which in turn is invoked from IRQ context. This means that ucsi_unregister() is now called from atomic context, which isn't feasible as it's expecting a sleepable context. An effort is under way to get GLINK to invoke its callbacks in a sleepable context, but until then lets schedule the unregistration. A side effect of this is that ucsi_unregister() can now happen after the remote processor, and thereby the communication link with it, is gone. pmic_glink_send() is amended with a check to avoid the resulting NULL pointer dereference. This does however result in the user being informed about this error by the following entry in the kernel log: ucsi_glink.pmic_glink_ucsi pmic_glink.ucsi.0: failed to send UCSI write request: -5

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Check UnboundedRequestEnabled's value CalculateSwathAndDETConfiguration_params_st's UnboundedRequestEnabled is a pointer (i.e. dml_bool_t *UnboundedRequestEnabled), and thus if (p->UnboundedRequestEnabled) checks its address, not bool value. This fixes 1 REVERSE_INULL issue reported by Coverity.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/bridge: tc358767: Check if fully initialized before signalling HPD event via IRQ Make sure the connector is fully initialized before signalling any HPD events via drm_kms_helper_hotplug_event(), otherwise this may lead to NULL pointer dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: phy: dp83822: Fix NULL pointer dereference on DP83825 devices The probe() function is only used for DP83822 and DP83826 PHY, leaving the private data pointer uninitialized for the DP83825 models which causes a NULL pointer dereference in the recently introduced/changed functions dp8382x_config_init() and dp83822_set_wol(). Add the dp8382x_probe() function, so all PHY models will have a valid private data pointer to fix this issue and also prevent similar issues in the future.

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.

A flaw null pointer dereference in the Linux kernel UDF file system functionality was found in the way user triggers udf_file_write_iter function for the malicious UDF image. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system. Actual from Linux kernel 4.2-rc1 till 5.17-rc2.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: i40e: Fix NULL ptr dereference on VSI filter sync Remove the reason of null pointer dereference in sync VSI filters. Added new I40E_VSI_RELEASING flag to signalize deleting and releasing of VSI resources to sync this thread with sync filters subtask. Without this patch it is possible to start update the VSI filter list after VSI is removed, that's causing a kernel oops.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: dsa: microchip: Added the condition for scheduling ksz_mib_read_work When the ksz module is installed and removed using rmmod, kernel crashes with null pointer dereferrence error. During rmmod, ksz_switch_remove function tries to cancel the mib_read_workqueue using cancel_delayed_work_sync routine and unregister switch from dsa. During dsa_unregister_switch it calls ksz_mac_link_down, which in turn reschedules the workqueue since mib_interval is non-zero. Due to which queue executed after mib_interval and it tries to access dp->slave. But the slave is unregistered in the ksz_switch_remove function. Hence kernel crashes. To avoid this crash, before canceling the workqueue, resetted the mib_interval to 0. v1 -> v2: -Removed the if condition in ksz_mib_read_work

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mptcp: never allow the PM to close a listener subflow Currently, when deleting an endpoint the netlink PM treverses all the local MPTCP sockets, regardless of their status. If an MPTCP listener socket is bound to the IP matching the delete endpoint, the listener TCP socket will be closed. That is unexpected, the PM should only affect data subflows. Additionally, syzbot was able to trigger a NULL ptr dereference due to the above: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000003: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000018-0x000000000000001f] CPU: 1 PID: 6550 Comm: syz-executor122 Not tainted 5.16.0-rc4-syzkaller #0 Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 01/01/2011 RIP: 0010:__lock_acquire+0xd7d/0x54a0 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:4897 Code: 0f 0e 41 be 01 00 00 00 0f 86 c8 00 00 00 89 05 69 cc 0f 0e e9 bd 00 00 00 48 b8 00 00 00 00 00 fc ff df 48 89 da 48 c1 ea 03 <80> 3c 02 00 0f 85 f3 2f 00 00 48 81 3b 20 75 17 8f 0f 84 52 f3 ff RSP: 0018:ffffc90001f2f818 EFLAGS: 00010016 RAX: dffffc0000000000 RBX: 0000000000000018 RCX: 0000000000000000 RDX: 0000000000000003 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: 0000000000000001 RBP: 0000000000000000 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: 0000000000000001 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 000000000000000a R12: 0000000000000000 R13: ffff88801b98d700 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: 0000000000000001 FS: 00007f177cd3d700(0000) GS:ffff8880b9d00000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00007f177cd1b268 CR3: 000000001dd55000 CR4: 0000000000350ee0 Call Trace: <TASK> lock_acquire kernel/locking/lockdep.c:5637 [inline] lock_acquire+0x1ab/0x510 kernel/locking/lockdep.c:5602 __raw_spin_lock_irqsave include/linux/spinlock_api_smp.h:110 [inline] _raw_spin_lock_irqsave+0x39/0x50 kernel/locking/spinlock.c:162 finish_wait+0xc0/0x270 kernel/sched/wait.c:400 inet_csk_wait_for_connect net/ipv4/inet_connection_sock.c:464 [inline] inet_csk_accept+0x7de/0x9d0 net/ipv4/inet_connection_sock.c:497 mptcp_accept+0xe5/0x500 net/mptcp/protocol.c:2865 inet_accept+0xe4/0x7b0 net/ipv4/af_inet.c:739 mptcp_stream_accept+0x2e7/0x10e0 net/mptcp/protocol.c:3345 do_accept+0x382/0x510 net/socket.c:1773 __sys_accept4_file+0x7e/0xe0 net/socket.c:1816 __sys_accept4+0xb0/0x100 net/socket.c:1846 __do_sys_accept net/socket.c:1864 [inline] __se_sys_accept net/socket.c:1861 [inline] __x64_sys_accept+0x71/0xb0 net/socket.c:1861 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x35/0xb0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x44/0xae RIP: 0033:0x7f177cd8b8e9 Code: 28 00 00 00 75 05 48 83 c4 28 c3 e8 b1 14 00 00 90 48 89 f8 48 89 f7 48 89 d6 48 89 ca 4d 89 c2 4d 89 c8 4c 8b 4c 24 08 0f 05 <48> 3d 01 f0 ff ff 73 01 c3 48 c7 c1 b8 ff ff ff f7 d8 64 89 01 48 RSP: 002b:00007f177cd3d308 EFLAGS: 00000246 ORIG_RAX: 000000000000002b RAX: ffffffffffffffda RBX: 00007f177ce13408 RCX: 00007f177cd8b8e9 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: 0000000000000003 RBP: 00007f177ce13400 R08: 0000000000000000 R09: 0000000000000000 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000246 R12: 00007f177ce1340c R13: 00007f177cde1004 R14: 6d705f706374706d R15: 0000000000022000 </TASK> Fix the issue explicitly skipping MPTCP socket in TCP_LISTEN status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: nexthop: fix null pointer dereference when IPv6 is not enabled When we try to add an IPv6 nexthop and IPv6 is not enabled (!CONFIG_IPV6) we'll hit a NULL pointer dereference[1] in the error path of nh_create_ipv6() due to calling ipv6_stub->fib6_nh_release. The bug has been present since the beginning of IPv6 nexthop gateway support. Commit 1aefd3de7bc6 ("ipv6: Add fib6_nh_init and release to stubs") tells us that only fib6_nh_init has a dummy stub because fib6_nh_release should not be called if fib6_nh_init returns an error, but the commit below added a call to ipv6_stub->fib6_nh_release in its error path. To fix it return the dummy stub's -EAFNOSUPPORT error directly without calling ipv6_stub->fib6_nh_release in nh_create_ipv6()'s error path. [1] Output is a bit truncated, but it clearly shows the error.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tee: amdtee: fix an IS_ERR() vs NULL bug The __get_free_pages() function does not return error pointers it returns NULL so fix this condition to avoid a NULL dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: blk-mq: cancel blk-mq dispatch work in both blk_cleanup_queue and disk_release() For avoiding to slow down queue destroy, we don't call blk_mq_quiesce_queue() in blk_cleanup_queue(), instead of delaying to cancel dispatch work in blk_release_queue(). However, this way has caused kernel oops[1], reported by Changhui. The log shows that scsi_device can be freed before running blk_release_queue(), which is expected too since scsi_device is released after the scsi disk is closed and the scsi_device is removed. Fixes the issue by canceling blk-mq dispatch work in both blk_cleanup_queue() and disk_release(): 1) when disk_release() is run, the disk has been closed, and any sync dispatch activities have been done, so canceling dispatch work is enough to quiesce filesystem I/O dispatch activity. 2) in blk_cleanup_queue(), we only focus on passthrough request, and passthrough request is always explicitly allocated & freed by its caller, so once queue is frozen, all sync dispatch activity for passthrough request has been done, then it is enough to just cancel dispatch work for avoiding any dispatch activity.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: bridge: fix vlan tunnel dst null pointer dereference This patch fixes a tunnel_dst null pointer dereference due to lockless access in the tunnel egress path. When deleting a vlan tunnel the tunnel_dst pointer is set to NULL without waiting a grace period (i.e. while it's still usable) and packets egressing are dereferencing it without checking. Use READ/WRITE_ONCE to annotate the lockless use of tunnel_id, use RCU for accessing tunnel_dst and make sure it is read only once and checked in the egress path. The dst is already properly RCU protected so we don't need to do anything fancy than to make sure tunnel_id and tunnel_dst are read only once and checked in the egress path.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: serial: liteuart: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ->remove() drvdata has to be set in _probe() - otherwise platform_get_drvdata() causes null pointer dereference BUG in _remove().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iwlwifi: mvm: Fix possible NULL dereference In __iwl_mvm_remove_time_event() check that 'te_data->vif' is NULL before dereferencing it.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Add NULL test for 'timing generator' in 'dcn21_set_pipe()' In "u32 otg_inst = pipe_ctx->stream_res.tg->inst;" pipe_ctx->stream_res.tg could be NULL, it is relying on the caller to ensure the tg is not NULL.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: cifs: prevent NULL deref in cifs_compose_mount_options() The optional @ref parameter might contain an NULL node_name, so prevent dereferencing it in cifs_compose_mount_options(). Addresses-Coverity: 1476408 ("Explicit null dereferenced")

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Fix late derefrence 'dsc' check in 'link_set_dsc_pps_packet()' In link_set_dsc_pps_packet(), 'struct display_stream_compressor *dsc' was dereferenced in a DC_LOGGER_INIT(dsc->ctx->logger); before the 'dsc' NULL pointer check. Fixes the below: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/link/link_dpms.c:905 link_set_dsc_pps_packet() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'dsc' (see line 903)

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.
