In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: ethernet: stmmac: fix altr_tse_pcs function when using a fixed-link When using a fixed-link, the altr_tse_pcs driver crashes due to null-pointer dereference as no phy_device is provided to tse_pcs_fix_mac_speed function. Fix this by adding a check for phy_dev before calling the tse_pcs_fix_mac_speed() function. Also clean up the tse_pcs_fix_mac_speed function a bit. There is no need to check for splitter_base and sgmii_adapter_base because the driver will fail if these 2 variables are not derived from the device tree.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: soc-pcm: Add NULL check in BE reparenting Add NULL check in dpcm_be_reparent API, to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference error. The issue occurred in fuzzing test.

While slcan_netdev_close() (netdev side) calls flush_work(&sl->tx_work), slcan_close() (tty side) does not. So when the netdev is never set UP, but the tty is stuffed with bytes and forced to wakeup write, the work is scheduled, but never flushed. So add an additional flush_work() to slcan_close() to be sure the work is flushed under all circumstances. The Fixes commit below moved flush_work() from slcan_close() to slcan_netdev_close(). What was the rationale behind it? Maybe we can drop the one in slcan_netdev_close()? I see the same pattern in can327. So it perhaps needs the very same fix.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/panel: ili9341: fix optional regulator handling If the optional regulator lookup fails, reset the pointer to NULL. Other functions such as mipi_dbi_poweron_reset_conditional() only do a NULL pointer check and will otherwise dereference the error pointer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sfc: fix null pointer dereference in efx_hard_start_xmit Trying to get the channel from the tx_queue variable here is wrong because we can only be here if tx_queue is NULL, so we shouldn't dereference it. As the above comment in the code says, this is very unlikely to happen, but it's wrong anyway so let's fix it. I hit this issue because of a different bug that caused tx_queue to be NULL. If that happens, this is the error message that we get here: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000020 [...] RIP: 0010:efx_hard_start_xmit+0x153/0x170 [sfc]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: qla2xxx: Implement ref count for SRB The timeout handler and the done function are racing. When qla2x00_async_iocb_timeout() starts to run it can be preempted by the normal response path (via the firmware?). qla24xx_async_gpsc_sp_done() releases the SRB unconditionally. When scheduling back to qla2x00_async_iocb_timeout() qla24xx_async_abort_cmd() will access an freed sp->qpair pointer: qla2xxx [0000:83:00.0]-2871:0: Async-gpsc timeout - hdl=63d portid=234500 50:06:0e:80:08:77:b6:21. qla2xxx [0000:83:00.0]-2853:0: Async done-gpsc res 0, WWPN 50:06:0e:80:08:77:b6:21 qla2xxx [0000:83:00.0]-2854:0: Async-gpsc OUT WWPN 20:45:00:27:f8:75:33:00 speeds=2c00 speed=0400. qla2xxx [0000:83:00.0]-28d8:0: qla24xx_handle_gpsc_event 50:06:0e:80:08:77:b6:21 DS 7 LS 6 rc 0 login 1|1 rscn 1|0 lid 5 BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000004 IP: qla24xx_async_abort_cmd+0x1b/0x1c0 [qla2xxx] Obvious solution to this is to introduce a reference counter. One reference is taken for the normal code path (the 'good' case) and one for the timeout path. As we always race between the normal good case and the timeout/abort handler we need to serialize it. Also we cannot assume any order between the handlers. Since this is slow path we can use proper synchronization via locks. When we are able to cancel a timer (del_timer returns 1) we know there can't be any error handling in progress because the timeout handler hasn't expired yet, thus we can safely decrement the refcounter by one. If we are not able to cancel the timer, we know an abort handler is running. We have to make sure we call sp->done() in the abort handlers before calling kref_put().

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rtc: cmos: Fix event handler registration ordering issue Because acpi_install_fixed_event_handler() enables the event automatically on success, it is incorrect to call it before the handler routine passed to it is ready to handle events. Unfortunately, the rtc-cmos driver does exactly the incorrect thing by calling cmos_wake_setup(), which passes rtc_handler() to acpi_install_fixed_event_handler(), before cmos_do_probe(), because rtc_handler() uses dev_get_drvdata() to get to the cmos object pointer and the driver data pointer is only populated in cmos_do_probe(). This leads to a NULL pointer dereference in rtc_handler() on boot if the RTC fixed event happens to be active at the init time. To address this issue, change the initialization ordering of the driver so that cmos_wake_setup() is always called after a successful cmos_do_probe() call. While at it, change cmos_pnp_probe() to call cmos_do_probe() after the initial if () statement used for computing the IRQ argument to be passed to cmos_do_probe() which is cleaner than calling it in each branch of that if () (local variable "irq" can be of type int, because it is passed to that function as an argument of type int). Note that commit 6492fed7d8c9 ("rtc: rtc-cmos: Do not check ACPI_FADT_LOW_POWER_S0") caused this issue to affect a larger number of systems, because previously it only affected systems with ACPI_FADT_LOW_POWER_S0 set, but it is present regardless of that commit.

This happens because the adding of task_work from io_ring_exit_work() isn't synchronized with canceling all work items from eg exec. The execution of the two are ordered in that they are both run by the task itself, but if io_tctx_exit_cb() is queued while we're canceling all work items off exec AND gets executed when the task exits to userspace rather than in the main loop in io_uring_cancel_generic(), then we can find current->io_uring == NULL and hit the above crash. It's safe to add this NULL check here, because the execution of the two paths are done by the task itself. [axboe: add code comment and also put an explanation in the commit msg]

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: dsa: felix: fix possible NULL pointer dereference As the possible failure of the allocation, kzalloc() may return NULL pointer. Therefore, it should be better to check the 'sgi' in order to prevent the dereference of NULL pointer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: efi: fix NULL-deref in init error path In cases where runtime services are not supported or have been disabled, the runtime services workqueue will never have been allocated. Do not try to destroy the workqueue unconditionally in the unlikely event that EFI initialisation fails to avoid dereferencing a NULL pointer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: sparx5: switchdev: fix possible NULL pointer dereference As the possible failure of the allocation, devm_kzalloc() may return NULL pointer. Therefore, it should be better to check the 'db' in order to prevent the dereference of NULL pointer.

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.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: lpfc: Address NULL pointer dereference after starget_to_rport() Calls to starget_to_rport() may return NULL. Add check for NULL rport before dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: serial: 8250_aspeed_vuart: Fix potential NULL dereference in aspeed_vuart_probe platform_get_resource() may fail and return NULL, so we should better check it's return value to avoid a NULL pointer dereference.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Fix a NULL pointer dereference in amdgpu_dm_connector_add_common_modes() In amdgpu_dm_connector_add_common_modes(), amdgpu_dm_create_common_mode() is assigned to mode and is passed to drm_mode_probed_add() directly after that. drm_mode_probed_add() passes &mode->head to list_add_tail(), and there is a dereference of it in list_add_tail() without recoveries, which could lead to NULL pointer dereference on failure of amdgpu_dm_create_common_mode(). Fix this by adding a NULL check of mode. This bug was found by a static analyzer. Builds with 'make allyesconfig' show no new warnings, and our static analyzer no longer warns about this code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: md: Don't set mddev private to NULL in raid0 pers->free In normal stop process, it does like this: do_md_stop | __md_stop (pers->free(); mddev->private=NULL) | md_free (free mddev) __md_stop sets mddev->private to NULL after pers->free. The raid device will be stopped and mddev memory is free. But in reshape, it doesn't free the mddev and mddev will still be used in new raid. In reshape, it first sets mddev->private to new_pers and then runs old_pers->free(). Now raid0 sets mddev->private to NULL in raid0_free. The new raid can't work anymore. It will panic when dereference mddev->private because of NULL pointer dereference. It can panic like this: [63010.814972] kernel BUG at drivers/md/raid10.c:928!

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ice: Add check for kzalloc Add the check for the return value of kzalloc in order to avoid NULL pointer dereference. Moreover, use the goto-label to share the clean code.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rtc: pl031: fix rtc features null pointer dereference When there is no interrupt line, rtc alarm feature is disabled. The clearing of the alarm feature bit was being done prior to allocations of ldata->rtc device, resulting in a null pointer dereference. Clear RTC_FEATURE_ALARM after the rtc device is allocated.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: dsa: felix: suppress non-changes to the tagging protocol The way in which dsa_tree_change_tag_proto() works is that when dsa_tree_notify() fails, it doesn't know whether the operation failed mid way in a multi-switch tree, or it failed for a single-switch tree. So even though drivers need to fail cleanly in ds->ops->change_tag_protocol(), DSA will still call dsa_tree_notify() again, to restore the old tag protocol for potential switches in the tree where the change did succeeed (before failing for others). This means for the felix driver that if we report an error in felix_change_tag_protocol(), we'll get another call where proto_ops == old_proto_ops. If we proceed to act upon that, we may do unexpected things. For example, we will call dsa_tag_8021q_register() twice in a row, without any dsa_tag_8021q_unregister() in between. Then we will actually call dsa_tag_8021q_unregister() via old_proto_ops->teardown, which (if it manages to run at all, after walking through corrupted data structures) will leave the ports inoperational anyway. The bug can be readily reproduced if we force an error while in tag_8021q mode; this crashes the kernel. echo ocelot-8021q > /sys/class/net/eno2/dsa/tagging echo edsa > /sys/class/net/eno2/dsa/tagging # -EPROTONOSUPPORT Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000014 Call trace: vcap_entry_get+0x24/0x124 ocelot_vcap_filter_del+0x198/0x270 felix_tag_8021q_vlan_del+0xd4/0x21c dsa_switch_tag_8021q_vlan_del+0x168/0x2cc dsa_switch_event+0x68/0x1170 dsa_tree_notify+0x14/0x34 dsa_port_tag_8021q_vlan_del+0x84/0x110 dsa_tag_8021q_unregister+0x15c/0x1c0 felix_tag_8021q_teardown+0x16c/0x180 felix_change_tag_protocol+0x1bc/0x230 dsa_switch_event+0x14c/0x1170 dsa_tree_change_tag_proto+0x118/0x1c0

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: SUNRPC: Fix the svc_deferred_event trace class Fix a NULL deref crash that occurs when an svc_rqst is deferred while the sunrpc tracing subsystem is enabled. svc_revisit() sets dr->xprt to NULL, so it can't be relied upon in the tracepoint to provide the remote's address. Unfortunately we can't revert the "svc_deferred_class" hunk in commit ece200ddd54b ("sunrpc: Save remote presentation address in svc_xprt for trace events") because there is now a specific check of event format specifiers for unsafe dereferences. The warning that check emits is: event svc_defer_recv has unsafe dereference of argument 1 A "%pISpc" format specifier with a "struct sockaddr *" is indeed flagged by this check. Instead, take the brute-force approach used by the svcrdma_qp_error tracepoint. Convert the dr::addr field into a presentation address in the TP_fast_assign() arm of the trace event, and store that as a string. This fix can be backported to -stable kernels. In the meantime, commit c6ced22997ad ("tracing: Update print fmt check to handle new __get_sockaddr() macro") is now in v5.18, so this wonky fix can be replaced with __sockaddr() and friends properly during the v5.19 merge window.

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: watch_queue: Fix NULL dereference in error cleanup In watch_queue_set_size(), the error cleanup code doesn't take account of the fact that __free_page() can't handle a NULL pointer when trying to free up buffer pages that did get allocated. Fix this by only calling __free_page() on the pages actually allocated.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/msm/dp: populate connector of struct dp_panel DP CTS test case 4.2.2.6 has valid edid with bad checksum on purpose and expect DP source return correct checksum. During drm edid read, correct edid checksum is calculated and stored at connector::real_edid_checksum. The problem is struct dp_panel::connector never be assigned, instead the connector is stored in struct msm_dp::connector. When we run compliance testing test case 4.2.2.6 dp_panel_handle_sink_request() won't have a valid edid set in struct dp_panel::edid so we'll try to use the connectors real_edid_checksum and hit a NULL pointer dereference error because the connector pointer is never assigned. Changes in V2: -- populate panel connector at msm_dp_modeset_init() instead of at dp_panel_read_sink_caps() Changes in V3: -- remove unhelpful kernel crash trace commit text -- remove renaming dp_display parameter to dp Changes in V4: -- add more details to commit text Changes in v10: -- group into one series Changes in v11: -- drop drm/msm/dp: dp_link_parse_sink_count() return immediately if aux read Signee-off-by: Kuogee Hsieh <quic_khsieh@quicinc.com>

Currently, the target type of decl_tag can be struct/union, var or func. Both struct/union and var implemented their own 'resolve' callback functions and hence handled properly in kernel. But func type doesn't have 'resolve' callback function. When btf_decl_tag_resolve() tries to check func type, it tries to get vlen of its func_proto type, which triggered the above kasan error. To fix the issue, btf_decl_tag_resolve() needs to do btf_func_check() before trying to accessing func_proto type. In the current implementation, func type is checked with btf_func_check() in the main checking function btf_check_all_types(). To fix the above kasan issue, let us implement 'resolve' callback func type properly. The 'resolve' callback will be also called in btf_check_all_types() for func types.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: dsa: fix panic on shutdown if multi-chip tree failed to probe DSA probing is atypical because a tree of devices must probe all at once, so out of N switches which call dsa_tree_setup_routing_table() during probe, for (N - 1) of them, "complete" will return false and they will exit probing early. The Nth switch will set up the whole tree on their behalf. The implication is that for (N - 1) switches, the driver binds to the device successfully, without doing anything. When the driver is bound, the ->shutdown() method may run. But if the Nth switch has failed to initialize the tree, there is nothing to do for the (N - 1) driver instances, since the slave devices have not been created, etc. Moreover, dsa_switch_shutdown() expects that the calling @ds has been in fact initialized, so it jumps at dereferencing the various data structures, which is incorrect. Avoid the ensuing NULL pointer dereferences by simply checking whether the Nth switch has previously set "ds->setup = true" for the switch which is currently shutting down. The entire setup is serialized under dsa2_mutex which we already hold.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: arch/arm64: Fix topology initialization for core scheduling Arm64 systems rely on store_cpu_topology() to call update_siblings_masks() to transfer the toplogy to the various cpu masks. This needs to be done before the call to notify_cpu_starting() which tells the scheduler about each cpu found, otherwise the core scheduling data structures are setup in a way that does not match the actual topology. With smt_mask not setup correctly we bail on `cpumask_weight(smt_mask) == 1` for !leaders in: notify_cpu_starting() cpuhp_invoke_callback_range() sched_cpu_starting() sched_core_cpu_starting() which leads to rq->core not being correctly set for !leader-rq's. Without this change stress-ng (which enables core scheduling in its prctl tests in newer versions -- i.e. with PR_SCHED_CORE support) causes a warning and then a crash (trimmed for legibility): [ 1853.805168] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 1853.809784] task_rq(b)->core != rq->core [ 1853.809792] WARNING: CPU: 117 PID: 0 at kernel/sched/fair.c:11102 cfs_prio_less+0x1b4/0x1c4 ...

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: arm64: errata: Add missing sentinels to Spectre-BHB MIDR arrays Commit a5951389e58d ("arm64: errata: Add newer ARM cores to the spectre_bhb_loop_affected() lists") added some additional CPUs to the Spectre-BHB workaround, including some new arrays for designs that require new 'k' values for the workaround to be effective. Unfortunately, the new arrays omitted the sentinel entry and so is_midr_in_range_list() will walk off the end when it doesn't find a match. With UBSAN enabled, this leads to a crash during boot when is_midr_in_range_list() is inlined (which was more common prior to c8c2647e69be ("arm64: Make  _midr_in_range_list() an exported function")): | Internal error: aarch64 BRK: 00000000f2000001 [#1] PREEMPT SMP | pstate: 804000c5 (Nzcv daIF +PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--) | pc : spectre_bhb_loop_affected+0x28/0x30 | lr : is_spectre_bhb_affected+0x170/0x190 | [...] | Call trace: | spectre_bhb_loop_affected+0x28/0x30 | update_cpu_capabilities+0xc0/0x184 | init_cpu_features+0x188/0x1a4 | cpuinfo_store_boot_cpu+0x4c/0x60 | smp_prepare_boot_cpu+0x38/0x54 | start_kernel+0x8c/0x478 | __primary_switched+0xc8/0xd4 | Code: 6b09011f 54000061 52801080 d65f03c0 (d4200020) | ---[ end trace 0000000000000000 ]--- | Kernel panic - not syncing: aarch64 BRK: Fatal exception Add the missing sentinel entries.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: btusb: avoid NULL pointer dereference in skb_dequeue() A NULL pointer dereference can occur in skb_dequeue() when processing a QCA firmware crash dump on WCN7851 (0489:e0f3). [ 93.672166] Bluetooth: hci0: ACL memdump size(589824) [ 93.672475] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000008 [ 93.672517] Workqueue: hci0 hci_devcd_rx [bluetooth] [ 93.672598] RIP: 0010:skb_dequeue+0x50/0x80 The issue stems from handle_dump_pkt_qca() returning 0 even when a dump packet is successfully processed. This is because it incorrectly forwards the return value of hci_devcd_init() (which returns 0 on success). As a result, the caller (btusb_recv_acl_qca() or btusb_recv_evt_qca()) assumes the packet was not handled and passes it to hci_recv_frame(), leading to premature kfree() of the skb. Later, hci_devcd_rx() attempts to dequeue the same skb from the dump queue, resulting in a NULL pointer dereference. Fix this by: 1. Making handle_dump_pkt_qca() return 0 on success and negative errno on failure, consistent with kernel conventions. 2. Splitting dump packet detection into separate functions for ACL and event packets for better structure and readability. This ensures dump packets are properly identified and consumed, avoiding double handling and preventing NULL pointer access.

There is a closely related issue which has been fixed: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=d6c1b3599b2feb5c7291f5ac3a36e5fa7cedb234 ... but, unfortunately, the accepted patch appears to still be susceptible to a null pointer dereference under some interleavings. To trigger the bug, we think that `JFS_SBI(ipbmap->i_sb)->bmap` is set to NULL in `dbFreeBits` and then dereferenced in `jfs_ioc_trim`. This bug manifests quite rarely under normal circumstances, but is triggereable from a syz-program.

After memblock_init(), those late calls of memblock_reserve() operate on subregions of memblock .memory regions. As a result, these reserved regions will be set to the correct node at the first iteration of memmap_init_reserved_pages(). So set all reserved memblocks on Node#0 at initialization can avoid this panic.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: mediatek: Assign dummy when codec not specified for a DAI link MediaTek sound card drivers are checking whether a DAI link is present and used on a board to assign the correct parameters and this is done by checking the codec DAI names at probe time. If no real codec is present, assign the dummy codec to the DAI link to avoid NULL pointer during string comparison.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: brcmfmac: pcie: handle randbuf allocation failure The kzalloc() in brcmf_pcie_download_fw_nvram() will return null if the physical memory has run out. As a result, if we use get_random_bytes() to generate random bytes in the randbuf, the null pointer dereference bug will happen. In order to prevent allocation failure, this patch adds a separate function using buffer on kernel stack to generate random bytes in the randbuf, which could prevent the kernel stack from overflow.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: v4l: async: Fix notifier list entry init struct v4l2_async_notifier has several list_head members, but only waiting_list and done_list are initialized. notifier_entry was kept 'zeroed' leading to an uninitialized list_head. This results in a NULL-pointer dereference if csi2_async_register() fails, e.g. node for remote endpoint is disabled, and returns -ENOTCONN. The following calls to v4l2_async_nf_unregister() results in a NULL pointer dereference. Add the missing list head initializer.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: btrfs: make cow_file_range_inline() honor locked_page on error The btrfs buffered write path runs through __extent_writepage() which has some tricky return value handling for writepage_delalloc(). Specifically, when that returns 1, we exit, but for other return values we continue and end up calling btrfs_folio_end_all_writers(). If the folio has been unlocked (note that we check the PageLocked bit at the start of __extent_writepage()), this results in an assert panic like this one from syzbot: BTRFS: error (device loop0 state EAL) in free_log_tree:3267: errno=-5 IO failure BTRFS warning (device loop0 state EAL): Skipping commit of aborted transaction. BTRFS: error (device loop0 state EAL) in cleanup_transaction:2018: errno=-5 IO failure assertion failed: folio_test_locked(folio), in fs/btrfs/subpage.c:871 ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at fs/btrfs/subpage.c:871!
