| Null pointer dereference in Windows Hyper-V allows an authorized attacker to deny service locally. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tipc: fix NULL deref in tipc_named_node_up() on empty publication list
User-space applications can bind a large number of service addresses to
one or more sockets. Each binding of a local-scope service address inserts
one entry (publication) into the TIPC name table. If the number of these
publications exceeds TIPC_MAX_PUBL (65535), protocol service types
(such as node state and link state) are no longer inserted into the name
table. This causes two issues:
1. User-space applications subscribing to node or link up/down events
stop receiving notifications.
2. A NULL pointer dereference can occur:

tipc_nametbl_publish(); |
If 'tipc_nametbl_publish()' (Thread 1) fails because the number of
local publications reaches TIPC_MAX_PUBL, list (Thread 2) will be empty. As a
result, NULL is passed to 'buf_msg()', leading to a NULL pointer dereference.
Fix these issues by allowing protocol service types (node state, link state,
and topology server) to be inserted into the name table unconditionally.
This ensures that users subscribing to these types always receive
notifications. In addition, the maximum number of local user publications is
reduced to (TIPC_MAX_PUBL - 1). This ensures that the maximum bulk size
calculated in tipc_link_set_queue_limits() remains valid. |
| Null pointer dereference in Windows Schannel allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
accel/rocket: search every core slot when looking up a scheduler
sched_to_core() walks rdev->cores[] up to rdev->num_cores, and
rocket_remove() decrements num_cores for every core it removes. Unbind a
core that is not the last one and the cores behind it fall outside the
search, so sched_to_core() returns NULL for a core that is still bound and
still running jobs. Neither caller checks the result:
rocket_job_run(): rocket_fence_create(core), core->dev
rocket_job_timedout(): dev_err(core->dev, "NPU job timed out")
Unbinding the middle core of the three on an RK3588 while three clients are
submitting to all of them faults twice, once from the surviving core's
job queue and once from its reset work:
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000220-0x0000000000000227]

drm_sched_job_timedout+0x188/0x6a0 [gpu_sched]
Both are the third core: the workqueue names are its device and its
core->index, and it was left at slot 2 while num_cores had dropped to 2.
Search all the slots that were allocated, the way find_core_for_dev() now
does. A core that is still bound is then found, and the two callers get
the pointer they already assume they have.
This does not make unbinding one core out of several safe. An open client
keeps an entity pointing at the scheduler of the core that went away:
drm_sched reports it as not ready for every job that lands on it, and the
client waits in dma_fence_default_wait for a fence that will never signal.
Stopping the NULL dereference is what belongs in a fix; the rest wants
more thought. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fsnotify: prevent mark additions during connector teardown
fsnotify_destroy_marks() keeps a reference to its current mark while it
drops conn->lock to destroy the mark. This stabilizes the forward-walk
cursor, but does not prevent a new mark from being inserted before it.
For example, an inotify watch re-added after IN_IGNORED sorts before the
old, detached mark for the same group. The walk can miss the replacement
and then detach the entire connector from the object.
The replacement is still on its group's marks_list and, for inotify, in
the watch IDR. The group mutex no longer protects the connector's object
from disappearing. An unprivileged fdinfo read racing the final detach
can consequently call igrab(NULL):
BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in igrab+0x24/0x100
Write of size 4 at addr 0000000000000148
Call Trace:
igrab+0x24/0x100
inotify_show_fdinfo+0x1dc/0x5e0
seq_show+0x397/0x690
Set a DESTROYING flag under conn->lock before starting the walk, and
reject new marks on that connector with -ENOENT. The existing add-mark
error paths undo the temporary group-list entry and the backend's watch
allocation. Do not wait for teardown while holding the group mutex,
which the destroyer needs. Once the old connector is detached, an add
can install a fresh connector as before.
This closes the insertion race for all object types using the common
connector teardown, without changing the mark reference or SRCU lifetime
rules. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ti: icssm-prueth: Move setting of netops to fix crash
icssm_prueth_netdev_init() calls of_phy_get_and_connect() before
ndev->netdev_ops is assigned. phy_attach_direct() ->
phy_link_topo_add_phy() reads dev->netdev_ops through
netdev_need_ops_lock() since the commit in question, so probing crashes
with a NULL pointer dereference when CONFIG_NET_SHAPER is enabled.
Assign netdev_ops before the PHY attach, as was done for emac in commit
7c9f391ec89c ("net: emac: move setting of netops to fix crash"). |
| Null pointer dereference in Windows Hyper-V allows an authorized attacker to deny service locally. |
| 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. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: libiscsi: Validate the task named by a management response
__iscsi_complete_pdu() fetches the task for five response types from one
place and checks only that the index resolved:
case ISCSI_OP_LOGOUT_RSP:
case ISCSI_OP_LOGIN_RSP:
case ISCSI_OP_TEXT_RSP:
case ISCSI_OP_SCSI_TMFUNC_RSP:
case ISCSI_OP_NOOP_IN:
task = iscsi_itt_to_task(conn, hdr->itt);
if (!task)
return ISCSI_ERR_BAD_ITT;
iscsi_itt_to_task() bounds the index against cmds_max and looks at
nothing else, so a target can name any slot in the pool, including one
that has never been used. task->conn is then NULL, and both
iscsi_nop_out_rsp() and iscsi_complete_task() dereference it. One
unsolicited NOP-In is enough; a Text Response carrying the same ITT
crashes in iscsi_complete_task() instead.
Require the task to be in flight and not a SCSI command, the way
iscsi_itt_to_ctask() does for the command opcodes.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
gpio: mxc: fix race between chained IRQ handler install and probe completion
mxc_update_irq_chained_handler() is called before the IRQ domain, the
generic IRQ chip, and the port list entry are set up. If an interrupt
arrives in that window:
- mx3_gpio_irq_handler() calls generic_handle_domain_irq() with
port->domain still NULL.
- mx2_gpio_irq_handler() walks mxc_gpio_ports, but the port has not
been added to the list yet.
Additionally, if any of the subsequent probe steps
(gpio_generic_chip_init(), devm_gpiochip_add_data(),
irq_domain_create_legacy(), or mxc_gpio_init_gc()) fail, the error
paths never unregister the chained handler, leaving a dangling handler
that points at freed memory.
Move the handler installation after all its dependencies are ready and
after list_add_tail(), so the handler is never live while the data
structures it touches are incomplete, and is never installed if probe
fails. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/ctcm: Prevent XID null dereference
The mpc_validate_xid() function sets grp->saved_xid2->xid2_flag2 to 0x40
to signal XID validation error. If peer XID is NULL or r/w channel
pairing mismatch happens, grp->saved_xid2 is never initialized. An
attempt to set the flag in such case leads to NULL dereference.
Fix this by using the always available priv->xid->xid2_flag2 instead of
grp->saved_xid2->xid2_flag2 for validation errors. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix NULL sink dereference in USB4 bandwidth functions
allocate_usb4_bandwidth_for_stream() and allocate_usb4_bandwidth() both
use ASSERT(stream->sink) before dereferencing stream->sink->link. ASSERT
is compiled out in production builds, so a NULL stream->sink causes a
NULL pointer dereference.
link_set_dpms_off() already guards two earlier accesses to stream->sink
with explicit NULL checks, confirming that stream->sink can legitimately
be NULL. The subsequent call to deallocate_usb4_bandwidth() had no
equivalent guard.
Replace the ASSERT() calls with proper NULL checks that return false
early, and add a matching stream->sink guard at the call site in
link_set_dpms_off() consistent with the surrounding pattern.
v2: Keep the existing ASSERT() calls for diagnostics (to report
unexpected NULL sink), and add explicit NULL checks that return false
before dereferencing stream->sink. Also add a matching stream->sink
guard at the deallocation call site in link_set_dpms_off(). (Alex)

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ring-buffer: Fix the sub-buffer array base in rb_meta_subbuf_idx()
On a persistent ring buffer, rb_meta_subbuf_idx() can return an index one
sub-buffer too high. rb_setup_ids_meta_page() then fills subbuf_ids[]
shifted by one and leaves subbuf_ids[0] NULL, which __rb_map_vma()
dereferences when userspace maps trace_pipe_raw. rb_update_meta_reader()
writes two such indices into meta->buffers[], which rb_cpu_meta_valid()
would reject on the next boot, discarding the previous boot's trace.
A CPU's sub-buffer array starts after its meta header and the nr_subbufs
integers that follow, aligned up to a sub-buffer. rb_meta_subbuf_idx()
inverts that calculation but skips only the integers, not the header, so
its base is one sub-buffer low whenever the omitted header size crosses
the alignment boundary.
Invert the calculation with rb_subbufs_from_meta() rather than repeating
it. rb_range_buffer() maps an index back to an address through the same
helper, so the two directions can no longer disagree. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mshv_vtl: Check per-CPU register page before mmap
Register-page setup is optional for each CPU. If allocation or
registration fails, mshv_vtl_configure_reg_page() warns and leaves that
CPU's reg_page NULL, but initial context setup continues successfully.
Meanwhile, successful setup on another CPU sets the global
mshv_has_reg_page flag.
mshv_vtl_fault() checks this global flag before selecting the requested
CPU's register page. With mixed setup results across online CPUs, the
check passes even for a CPU with no register page, reaching
get_page(NULL) when userspace faults in that mapping.
Check the selected per-CPU register page before taking its reference and
return VM_FAULT_SIGBUS if it is absent. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: nVMX: Reset MMU back to the root MMU if loading L2 state fails for !VM-Entry
Reset the vCPU's MMU pointer back to the root MMU if loading L2 state fails
in the "not from VM-Entry" case, i.e. when emulating RSM or handling
KVM_SET_NESTED_STATE. Failure to unwind the MMU pointer results in KVM
trying to run L1 with a nested MMU, and is especially problematic if the
vCPU manages to free its nested state before the VM crashes. Constructing
the root for a nested EPT MMU goes through vmcs12, which is dynamically
allocated/freed when nVMX is enabled/disabled. And so if the nested state
is freed with the MMU still pointing at the nested MMU, KVM will hit a NULL
pointer deref when attempting to get L1=>L2 EPTP.
