CVSS v3.1 |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
calipso: Don't call calipso functions for AF_INET sk.
syzkaller reported a null-ptr-deref in txopt_get(). [0]
The offset 0x70 was of struct ipv6_txoptions in struct ipv6_pinfo,
so struct ipv6_pinfo was NULL there.
However, this never happens for IPv6 sockets as inet_sk(sk)->pinet6
is always set in inet6_create(), meaning the socket was not IPv6 one.
The root cause is missing validation in netlbl_conn_setattr().
netlbl_conn_setattr() switches branches based on struct
sockaddr.sa_family, which is passed from userspace. However,
netlbl_conn_setattr() does not check if the address family matches
the socket.
The syzkaller must have called connect() for an IPv6 address on
an IPv4 socket.
We have a proper validation in tcp_v[46]_connect(), but
security_socket_connect() is called in the earlier stage.
Let's copy the validation to netlbl_conn_setattr().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/ntfs3: handle hdr_first_de() return value
The hdr_first_de() function returns a pointer to a struct NTFS_DE. This
pointer may be NULL. To handle the NULL error effectively, it is important
to implement an error handler. This will help manage potential errors
consistently.
Additionally, error handling for the return value already exists at other
points where this function is called.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: bcm: rpi: Add NULL check in raspberrypi_clk_register()
devm_kasprintf() returns NULL when memory allocation fails. Currently,
raspberrypi_clk_register() 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:
fbdev: Fix do_register_framebuffer to prevent null-ptr-deref in fb_videomode_to_var
If fb_add_videomode() in do_register_framebuffer() fails to allocate
memory for fb_videomode, it will later lead to a null-ptr dereference in
fb_videomode_to_var(), as the fb_info is registered while not having the
mode in modelist that is expected to be there, i.e. the one that is
described in fb_info->var.

================================================================
Even though fbcon_init() checks beforehand if fb_match_mode() in
var_to_display() fails, it can not prevent the panic because fbcon_init()
does not return error code. Considering this and the comment in the code
about fb_match_mode() returning NULL - "This should not happen" - it is
better to prevent registering the fb_info if its mode was not set
successfully. Also move fb_add_videomode() closer to the beginning of
do_register_framebuffer() to avoid having to do the cleanup on fail.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: Initialize ssc before laundromat_work to prevent NULL dereference
In nfs4_state_start_net(), laundromat_work may access nfsd_ssc through
nfs4_laundromat -> nfsd4_ssc_expire_umount. If nfsd_ssc isn't initialized,
this can cause NULL pointer dereference.
Normally the delayed start of laundromat_work allows sufficient time for
nfsd_ssc initialization to complete. However, when the kernel waits too
long for userspace responses (e.g. in nfs4_state_start_net ->
nfsd4_end_grace -> nfsd4_record_grace_done -> nfsd4_cld_grace_done ->
cld_pipe_upcall -> __cld_pipe_upcall -> wait_for_completion path), the
delayed work may start before nfsd_ssc initialization finishes.
Fix this by moving nfsd_ssc initialization before starting laundromat_work. |

The reason is: in fuzzed image, sbi->total_valid_block_count is
inconsistent w/ mapped blocks indexed by inode, so, we should
not trigger panic for such case, instead, let's print log and
set fsck flag. |

ksmbd: fix null pointer dereference in destroy_previous_session
If client set ->PreviousSessionId on kerberos session setup stage,
NULL pointer dereference error will happen. Since sess->user is not

[CAUSE]
Firstly the fs has a corrupted csum tree root, thus to mount the fs we
have to go "ro,rescue=ibadroots" mount option.
Normally with that mount option, a bad csum tree root should set
BTRFS_FS_STATE_NO_DATA_CSUMS flag, so that any future data read will
ignore csum search.
But in this particular case, we have the following call trace that
caused NULL csum root, but not setting BTRFS_FS_STATE_NO_DATA_CSUMS:
load_global_roots_objectid():
ret = btrfs_search_slot();
/* Succeeded */
btrfs_item_key_to_cpu()
found = true;
/* We found the root item for csum tree. */
root = read_tree_root_path();
if (IS_ERR(root)) {
if (!btrfs_test_opt(fs_info, IGNOREBADROOTS))
/*
* Since we have rescue=ibadroots mount option,
* @ret is still 0.
*/
break;
if (!found || ret) {
/* @found is true, @ret is 0, error handling for csum
* tree is skipped.
*/
}
This means we completely skipped to set BTRFS_FS_STATE_NO_DATA_CSUMS if
the csum tree is corrupted, which results unexpected later csum lookup.
[FIX]
If read_tree_root_path() failed, always populate @ret to the error
number.
As at the end of the function, we need @ret to determine if we need to
do the extra error handling for csum tree. |

tty: serial: uartlite: register uart driver in init
When two instances of uart devices are probing, a concurrency race can
occur. If one thread calls uart_register_driver function, which first
allocates and assigns memory to 'uart_state' member of uart_driver
structure, the other instance can bypass uart driver registration and
call ulite_assign. This calls uart_add_one_port, which expects the uart
driver to be fully initialized. This leads to a kernel panic due to a
null pointer dereference:

fix this by checking media_id. |

phy: qcom-qmp-usb: Fix an NULL vs IS_ERR() bug
The qmp_usb_iomap() helper function currently returns the raw result of
devm_ioremap() for non-exclusive mappings. Since devm_ioremap() may return
a NULL pointer and the caller only checks error pointers with IS_ERR(),
NULL could bypass the check and lead to an invalid dereference.
Fix the issue by checking if devm_ioremap() returns NULL. When it does,
qmp_usb_iomap() now returns an error pointer via IOMEM_ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM),
ensuring safe and consistent error handling. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
calipso: Fix null-ptr-deref in calipso_req_{set,del}attr().
syzkaller reported a null-ptr-deref in sock_omalloc() while allocating
a CALIPSO option. [0]
The NULL is of struct sock, which was fetched by sk_to_full_sk() in
calipso_req_setattr().
Since commit a1a5344ddbe8 ("tcp: avoid two atomic ops for syncookies"),
reqsk->rsk_listener could be NULL when SYN Cookie is returned to its
client, as hinted by the leading SYN Cookie log.
Here are 3 options to fix the bug:
1) Return 0 in calipso_req_setattr()
2) Return an error in calipso_req_setattr()
3) Alaways set rsk_listener
1) is no go as it bypasses LSM, but 2) effectively disables SYN Cookie
for CALIPSO. 3) is also no go as there have been many efforts to reduce
atomic ops and make TCP robust against DDoS. See also commit 3b24d854cb35
("tcp/dccp: do not touch listener sk_refcnt under synflood").
As of the blamed commit, SYN Cookie already did not need refcounting,
and no one has stumbled on the bug for 9 years, so no CALIPSO user will
care about SYN Cookie.
Let's return an error in calipso_req_setattr() and calipso_req_delattr()
in the SYN Cookie case.
This can be reproduced by [1] on Fedora and now connect() of nc times out.

| cryptography is a package designed to expose cryptographic primitives and recipes to Python developers. Calling `load_pem_pkcs7_certificates` or `load_der_pkcs7_certificates` could lead to a NULL-pointer dereference and segfault. Exploitation of this vulnerability poses a serious risk of Denial of Service (DoS) for any application attempting to deserialize a PKCS7 blob/certificate. The consequences extend to potential disruptions in system availability and stability. This vulnerability has been patched in version 41.0.6. |
| RIOT is an open-source microcontroller operating system, designed to match the requirements of Internet of Things (IoT) devices and other embedded devices. A vulnerability was discovered in the IPv6 fragmentation reassembly implementation of RIOT OS v2025.07. When receiving an fragmented IPv6 packet with fragment offset 0 and an empty payload, the payload pointer is set to NULL. However, the implementation still tries to copy the payload into the reassembly buffer, resulting in a NULL pointer dereference which crashes the OS (DoS). To trigger the vulnerability, the `gnrc_ipv6_ext_frag` module must be enabled and the attacker must be able to send arbitrary IPv6 packets to the victim. RIOT OS v2025.10 fixes the issue. |
| A flaw has been found in OFFIS DCMTK up to 3.6.9. The impacted element is the function DcmQueryRetrieveIndexDatabaseHandle::startFindRequest/DcmQueryRetrieveIndexDatabaseHandle::startMoveRequest in the library dcmqrdb/libsrc/dcmqrdbi.cc of the component dcmqrscp. This manipulation causes null pointer dereference. The attack requires local access. Upgrading to version 3.7.0 is sufficient to resolve this issue. Patch name: ffb1a4a37d2c876e3feeb31df4930f2aed7fa030. You should upgrade the affected component. |

| 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.
