| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/9p: fix NULL pointer dereference on mkdir
When a 9p tree was mounted with option 'posixacl', parent directory had a
default ACL set for its subdirectories, e.g.:
setfacl -m default:group:simpsons:rwx parentdir
then creating a subdirectory crashed 9p client, as v9fs_fid_add() call in
function v9fs_vfs_mkdir_dotl() sets the passed 'fid' pointer to NULL
(since dafbe689736) even though the subsequent v9fs_set_create_acl() call
expects a valid non-NULL 'fid' pointer:

scsi: mpi3mr: Fix possible crash when setting up bsg fails
If bsg_setup_queue() fails, the bsg_queue is assigned a non-NULL value.
Consequently, in mpi3mr_bsg_exit(), the condition "if(!mrioc->bsg_queue)"
will not be satisfied, preventing execution from entering
bsg_remove_queue(), which could lead to the following crash:

rds: sysctl: rds_tcp_{rcv,snd}buf: 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 per-netns structure can be obtained from the table->data using
container_of(), then the 'net' one can be retrieved from the listen
socket (if available). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: SOF: Intel: hda-dai: Ensure DAI widget is valid during params
Each cpu DAI should associate with a widget. However, the topology might
not create the right number of DAI widgets for aggregated amps. And it
will cause NULL pointer deference.
Check that the DAI widget associated with the CPU DAI is valid to prevent
NULL pointer deference due to missing DAI widgets in topologies with
aggregated amps. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Mark raw_tp arguments with PTR_MAYBE_NULL
Arguments to a raw tracepoint are tagged as trusted, which carries the
semantics that the pointer will be non-NULL. However, in certain cases,
a raw tracepoint argument may end up being NULL. More context about this
issue is available in [0].
Thus, there is a discrepancy between the reality, that raw_tp arguments
can actually be NULL, and the verifier's knowledge, that they are never
NULL, causing explicit NULL checks to be deleted, and accesses to such
pointers potentially crashing the kernel.
To fix this, mark raw_tp arguments as PTR_MAYBE_NULL, and then special
case the dereference and pointer arithmetic to permit it, and allow
passing them into helpers/kfuncs; these exceptions are made for raw_tp
programs only. Ensure that we don't do this when ref_obj_id > 0, as in
that case this is an acquired object and doesn't need such adjustment.
The reason we do mask_raw_tp_trusted_reg logic is because other will
recheck in places whether the register is a trusted_reg, and then
consider our register as untrusted when detecting the presence of the
PTR_MAYBE_NULL flag.
To allow safe dereference, we enable PROBE_MEM marking when we see loads
into trusted pointers with PTR_MAYBE_NULL.
While trusted raw_tp arguments can also be passed into helpers or kfuncs
where such broken assumption may cause issues, a future patch set will
tackle their case separately, as PTR_TO_BTF_ID (without PTR_TRUSTED) can
already be passed into helpers and causes similar problems. Thus, they
are left alone for now.
It is possible that these checks also permit passing non-raw_tp args
that are trusted PTR_TO_BTF_ID with null marking. In such a case,
allowing dereference when pointer is NULL expands allowed behavior, so
won't regress existing programs, and the case of passing these into
helpers is the same as above and will be dealt with later.
Also update the failure case in tp_btf_nullable selftest to capture the
new behavior, as the verifier will no longer cause an error when
directly dereference a raw tracepoint argument marked as __nullable.

drm/amd/display: Fix null check for pipe_ctx->plane_state in dcn20_program_pipe
This commit addresses a null pointer dereference issue in
dcn20_program_pipe(). Previously, commit 8e4ed3cf1642 ("drm/amd/display:
Add null check for pipe_ctx->plane_state in dcn20_program_pipe")
partially fixed the null pointer dereference issue. However, in
dcn20_update_dchubp_dpp(), the variable pipe_ctx is passed in, and
plane_state is accessed again through pipe_ctx. Multiple if statements
directly call attributes of plane_state, leading to potential null
pointer dereference issues. This patch adds necessary null checks to
ensure stability. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/i915/hdcp: Add encoder check in intel_hdcp_get_capability
Sometimes during hotplug scenario or suspend/resume scenario encoder is
not always initialized when intel_hdcp_get_capability add
a check to avoid kernel null pointer dereference. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Check null pointers before used
[WHAT & HOW]
Poniters, such as dc->clk_mgr, are null checked previously in the same
function, so Coverity warns "implies that "dc->clk_mgr" might be null".
As a result, these pointers need to be checked when used again.
This fixes 10 FORWARD_NULL issues reported by Coverity. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Check null pointers before multiple uses
[WHAT & HOW]
Poniters, such as stream_enc and dc->bw_vbios, are null checked previously
in the same function, so Coverity warns "implies that stream_enc and
dc->bw_vbios might be null". They are used multiple times in the
subsequent code and need to be checked.
This fixes 10 FORWARD_NULL issues reported by Coverity. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Add null check for head_pipe in dcn32_acquire_idle_pipe_for_head_pipe_in_layer
This commit addresses a potential null pointer dereference issue in the
`dcn32_acquire_idle_pipe_for_head_pipe_in_layer` function. The issue
could occur when `head_pipe` is null.
The fix adds a check to ensure `head_pipe` is not null before asserting
it. If `head_pipe` is null, the function returns NULL to prevent a
potential null pointer dereference.
Reported by smatch:
drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/resource/dcn32/dcn32_resource.c:2690 dcn32_acquire_idle_pipe_for_head_pipe_in_layer() error: we previously assumed 'head_pipe' could be null (see line 2681) |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Add missing NULL pointer check within dpcd_extend_address_range
[Why & How]
ASSERT if return NULL from kcalloc. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: endpoint: pci-epf-test: Make use of cached 'epc_features' in pci_epf_test_core_init()
Instead of getting the epc_features from pci_epc_get_features() API, use
the cached pci_epf_test::epc_features value to avoid the NULL check. Since
the NULL check is already performed in pci_epf_test_bind(), having one more
check in pci_epf_test_core_init() is redundant and it is not possible to
hit the NULL pointer dereference.
Also with commit a01e7214bef9 ("PCI: endpoint: Remove "core_init_notifier"
flag"), 'epc_features' got dereferenced without the NULL check, leading to
the following false positive Smatch warning:
drivers/pci/endpoint/functions/pci-epf-test.c:784 pci_epf_test_core_init() error: we previously assumed 'epc_features' could be null (see line 747)
Thus, remove the redundant NULL check and also use the epc_features::
{msix_capable/msi_capable} flags directly to avoid local variables.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kvm: s390: Reject memory region operations for ucontrol VMs
This change rejects the KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION and
KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION2 ioctls when called on a ucontrol VM.
This is necessary since ucontrol VMs have kvm->arch.gmap set to 0 and
would thus result in a null pointer dereference further in.
Memory management needs to be performed in userspace and using the
ioctls KVM_S390_UCAS_MAP and KVM_S390_UCAS_UNMAP.
Also improve s390 specific documentation for KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION
and KVM_SET_USER_MEMORY_REGION2.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: Fix improper extts handling
Extts events are disabled and enabled by the application ts2phc.
However, in case where the driver is removed when the application is
running, a specific extts event remains enabled and can cause a kernel
crash.
As a side effect, when the driver is reloaded and application is started
again, remaining extts event for the channel from a previous run will
keep firing and the message "extts on unexpected channel" might be
printed to the user.
To avoid that, extts events shall be disabled when PTP is released. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: Don't process extts if PTP is disabled
The ice_ptp_extts_event() function can race with ice_ptp_release() and
result in a NULL pointer dereference which leads to a kernel panic.
Panic occurs because the ice_ptp_extts_event() function calls
ptp_clock_event() with a NULL pointer. The ice driver has already
released the PTP clock by the time the interrupt for the next external
timestamp event occurs.
To fix this, modify the ice_ptp_extts_event() function to check the
PTP state and bail early if PTP is not ready. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Fix netif state handling
mlx5e_suspend cleans resources only if netif_device_present() returns
true. However, mlx5e_resume changes the state of netif, via
mlx5e_nic_enable, only if reg_state == NETREG_REGISTERED.
In the below case, the above leads to NULL-ptr Oops[1] and memory
leaks:
mlx5e_probe
_mlx5e_resume
mlx5e_attach_netdev
mlx5e_nic_enable <-- netdev not reg, not calling netif_device_attach()
register_netdev <-- failed for some reason.
ERROR_FLOW:
_mlx5e_suspend <-- netif_device_present return false, resources aren't freed :(
Hence, clean resources in this case as well.

| A malicious SVG can trigger an integer overflow which in turn triggers a null-pointer dereference in VectorImage QML Type. |
| libIEC61850 is an open-source implementation of IEC 61850 client and server protocols including MMS, GOOSE, Sampled Values, and R-Session. Prior to 1.6.2, alternateArrayAccess in src/mms/iso_mms/server/mms_read_service.c does not validate an alternate-access sub-array range when numberOfElements is greater than zero. An out-of-range MmsValue_getElement call returns NULL, and the sub-array branch passes that value to MmsValue_isDeletable, causing a NULL pointer dereference. A remote MMS Read request can therefore crash servers whose data models contain arrays, while the single-element error path handles the same invalid index safely. This issue is fixed in version 1.6.2. |
| FreeRDP 3.0.0 before 3.32.0 contains a null-pointer dereference in the smartcard emulation backend that accepts a null per-reader name in SCardGetStatusChange requests. A malicious RDP server can send a crafted reader-state entry with a null szReader, causing strcmp or _wcscmp to crash the client process. |
