| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: gadget: f_mass_storage: fix null pointer dereference in fsg_common_set_num_buffers()
Previously fsg_num_buffers_validate() was removed as it was not
necessary due to Kconfig setting the limits for n from 2 to 256 with
default as 2. However, setting the page content in such a way that
kstrtou8() reflects n value as either 0 or 1 bypasses these
restrictions leading to a null pointer dereference if n is 0. Fix
this by adding a check for n < 2 and returning -EINVAL if n is
either 0 or 1 consistent with Kconfig logic. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: vgic-its: Don't dereference a NULL collection on ITT save
MAPC with V=0 drops ite->collection but leaves the ITE on the device's
ITT list, and vgic_its_save_ite() dereferences it unconditionally. A
guest that issues MAPD, MAPTI and then MAPC(V=0) therefore oopses the
host when the VMM issues KVM_DEV_ARM_ITS_SAVE_TABLES to migrate it.
That sequence is UNPREDICTABLE per the architecture, but KVM already
handles the resulting state in the translate, MOVI and DISCARD paths.
Save a zeroed entry, which vgic_its_restore_ite() reads back as
invalid. Skipping the ITE instead would leave the ITT slot holding
whatever is in guest memory, and restore rejects an entry naming a
collection the restored collection table does not have. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: platform: mtk-mdp3: fix NULL deref on failed SCP lookup
Add the missing sanity check after looking up the SCP to avoid
dereferencing a NULL-pointer in case its driver has not yet been bound. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: avoid NULL checkpoint thread access in sysfs
checkpoint_merge can be enabled even when no checkpoint merge thread is
running. A read-only mount is one case: f2fs does not start
f2fs_issue_ckpt there, but ckpt_thread_ioprio is still writable through
sysfs.
The ckpt_thread_ioprio store path updates the saved ioprio value and,
when checkpoint_merge is enabled, calls set_task_ioprio() for the
checkpoint thread. If cprc->f2fs_issue_ckpt is NULL, that dereferences a
NULL task pointer.
Protect ckpt_thread_ioprio sysfs writes with s_umount as well, so the
checkpoint thread cannot disappear under the store path while updating
its ioprio. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/nouveau/uvmm: fix NULL deref unwinding an OP_MAP_SPARSE op
Each bind_job_op is zeroed by kzalloc_obj() in bind_job_op_from_uop(),
and the OP_MAP_SPARSE case in nouveau_uvmm_bind_job_submit() only creates
a region, so op->ops stays NULL for a successfully processed sparse map.
If a later op in the same job fails, the reverse unwind loop revisits that
op and calls drm_gpuva_ops_free(&uvmm->base, op->ops) unconditionally.
drm_gpuva_ops_free() dereferences its argument right away
(list_for_each_entry_safe on &ops->list), so a NULL op->ops oopses. The
path is reachable by any render-node fd holder, since NOUVEAU_VM_BIND is
DRM_RENDER_ALLOW.
Guard the free with IS_ERR_OR_NULL(), as nouveau_uvmm_bind_job_cleanup()
already does for the identical free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: emac: Fix NULL pointer dereference in emac_probe
Move devm_request_irq() after devm_platform_ioremap_resource() so that
dev->emacp is mapped before the interrupt handler can fire. An early
interrupt hitting emac_irq() would dereference the NULL dev->emacp and
crash.
Also remove redundant error message. devm_platform_ioremap_resource()
already returns an error message with dev_err_probe(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firewire: ohci: fix NULL pointer dereference in ar_context_release
During the error handling path of the driver's probe function, a NULL
pointer dereference can occur in ar_context_release().
When pci_probe() fails early (e.g., if pcim_enable_device() or MMIO mapping
fails), the devres cleanup mechanism invokes release_ohci(). This function
unconditionally calls ar_context_release() to clean up the asynchronous
receive contexts. However, if ar_context_init() was not yet called,
ctx->ohci remains NULL (as the fw_ohci structure is zero-initialized by
devres_alloc()).
ar_context_release() immediately dereferences ctx->ohci to get the dev
pointer before checking if the context was actually initialized, leading to
a crash:

To fix this, move the assignment of the dev pointer after the !ctx->buffer
check. If ctx->buffer is NULL, it indicates that the context was never
successfully initialized and there is nothing to release, safely avoiding
the dereference of the uninitialized ctx->ohci pointer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: handle NULL b_addr in xfs_buf_free
When xfs_buf_alloc_backing_mem() fails, xfs_buf_free() is called with
bp->b_addr still NULL. The code falls through to the folio_put path
which calls virt_to_folio(NULL), dereferencing an invalid address and
causing a kernel crash.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Fix netns reference imbalance in conntrack kfuncs
The opts argument of the BPF conntrack kfuncs can point to a shared
map value. __bpf_nf_ct_lookup() and __bpf_nf_ct_alloc_entry() read
opts->netns_id separately when acquiring and releasing the network
namespace reference.
The reference imbalance can occur as follows:
CPU 0 CPU 1
read opts->netns_id (-1)
skip get_net_ns_by_id()
write opts->netns_id (id)
read opts->netns_id (id)
put_net(net) /* no matching get */
The reverse transition leaks the reference. Repeating the unmatched put
can destroy a live namespace and crash later users.
The kernel reported:

selected field value remains stable for that invocation. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: tap: set skb->dev before parsing virtio net header in tap_get_user_xdp()
The commit 4f61f133f354 ("net: tap: NULL pointer derefence in
dev_parse_header_protocol when skb->dev is null") fixed a crash in
tap_get_user() by assigning skb->dev before calling tun_vnet_hdr_to_skb().
This is required because virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() may invoke
dev_parse_header_protocol(), which dereferences skb->dev. Without the
assignment, a NULL pointer dereference can occur.
However, tap_get_user_xdp() still parses the virtio-net header before
assigning skb->dev. When the vhost TX path passes an XDP buffer containing
a GSO virtio-net header but the protocol is set to zero on purpose,
tun_vnet_hdr_to_skb() can reach dev_parse_header_protocol() while skb->dev
is still NULL, resulting in a crash.
Fix this by looking up the tap device and assigning skb->dev before calling
tun_vnet_hdr_to_skb(), matching the ordering already used in
tap_get_user(). Preserve the existing RCU read-side critical section across
dev_queue_xmit(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: skip global block reserve accounting for rescue mounts
[BUG]
Mounting with rescue=ibadroots after corrupting the block group tree
root triggers a NULL pointer dereference:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000100
RIP: 0010:btrfs_update_global_block_rsv+0x9d/0x1c0 [btrfs]
Call Trace:

open_ctree+0xc6e/0x1ca0 [btrfs]
btrfs_get_tree+0x50d/0xa40 [btrfs]
The same crash occurs with a corrupted raid stripe tree root, via
btrfs_read_block_groups() instead of fill_dummy_bgs().
[CAUSE]
With rescue=ibadroots, btrfs_read_roots() allows the mount to continue
when either root cannot be read, leaving the corresponding root pointer
NULL while its on-disk feature bit remains set.
btrfs_update_global_block_rsv() then dereferences the missing root based
on the feature bit alone.
[FIX]
Rescue mounts are fully read-only and cannot start transactions, so the
global reserve is never consumed. Under btrfs_is_full_ro(), mark the
reserve as full and return before performing the accounting.
And since we need to check if the fs is mount fully RO, export
fs_is_full_ro() as btrfs_is_full_ro(), and move it to fs.h.
[ Squash the fs_is_full_ro() export commit into this one. ] |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: cancel SSR work items during PCI shutdown
A reboot can crash the kernel if it overlaps with WLAN firmware crash
recovery (SSR). The crash is a NULL pointer dereference in the MHI teardown
path while freeing DMA-backed MHI contexts.
Simplified trace:
dma_free_attrs
mhi_deinit_dev_ctxt [mhi]
ath11k_pci_power_down [ath11k_pci]
ath11k_pci_shutdown [ath11k_pci]
device_shutdown
kernel_restart
On the host side, SSR is driven by the MHI RDDM callback, which queues
reset_work to perform device recovery. reset_work power-cycles the device
by calling ath11k_hif_power_down() followed by ath11k_hif_power_up(). The
power-down phase deinitializes MHI and frees DMA resources.
Shutdown/reboot runs fully asynchronously with this RDDM-driven SSR
recovery flow. As a result, the shutdown path
(ath11k_pci_shutdown() -> ath11k_pci_power_down()) can race with the SSR
recovery sequence.
Fix this by canceling SSR-related work items during PCI shutdown, marking
the device as unregistering, and serializing the RDDM callback path that
checks and queues reset_work. This ensures that no new SSR recovery work
can be queued once teardown has started, and that any in-flight recovery
work is fully synchronized before device power-down, preventing MHI
teardown and DMA resource freeing from running more than once.
Note: This issue only affects PCI/MHI-based devices. AHB-based ath11k
devices do not queue reset_work in normal SSR flows.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Fix publication race for priv->channel_stats[]
mlx5e_channel_stats_alloc() publishes a new entry to
priv->channel_stats[] and then increments priv->stats_nch as a
publication token, but neither store carries any memory barrier:
priv->channel_stats[ix] = kvzalloc_node(...);
if (!priv->channel_stats[ix])
return -ENOMEM;
priv->stats_nch++;
Concurrent readers compute the loop bound from priv->stats_nch and
then dereference priv->channel_stats[i] using plain accesses, e.g.
for (i = 0; i < priv->stats_nch; i++) {
struct mlx5e_channel_stats *cs = priv->channel_stats[i];
... cs->rq.packets ...
}
On weakly-ordered architectures (ARM, PowerPC, RISC-V) the writes to
channel_stats[ix] and stats_nch may become visible to other CPUs out
of program order. A reader can observe stats_nch == N while still
seeing channel_stats[N-1] == NULL, leading to a NULL pointer
dereference in the channel_stats loop.
This has been observed in production on BlueField-3 DPUs (arm64),
where ovs-vswitchd queries netdev statistics over netlink during NIC
bringup, racing mlx5e_open_channel() -> mlx5e_channel_stats_alloc()
on another CPU:

net/sched: Handle TC_ACT_REDIRECT from qdisc filter chains
When a TC filter attached to a qdisc filter chain returns
TC_ACT_REDIRECT (ex: via an eBPF program calling bpf_redirect() or an
act_bpf action), the redirect was silently lost i.e no qdisc classify
function handled TC_ACT_REDIRECT, so the packet fell through the
switch and was enqueued normally instead of being redirected.
This has been broken since bpf_redirect() was introduced for TC in
commit 27b29f63058d ("bpf: add bpf_redirect() helper"). We got lucky
for a long time because bpf_net_context was a per-CPU variable that
was always available.
commit 401cb7dae813 ("net: Reference bpf_redirect_info via task_struct
on PREEMPT_RT.") turned bpf_net_context into a task_struct member that
is only set up by explicit callers. Without a caller setting it up,
bpf_redirect() itself crashes with a NULL pointer dereference in
bpf_net_ctx_get_ri(). However, even with bpf_net_context available,
TC_ACT_REDIRECT from qdisc filter chains cannot be honored without
adding skb_do_redirect() calls to every qdisc classify function, which
would require changes across net/sched/. Isolate it to ebpf core where
it belongs.
Instead, add a tcf_classify_qdisc() inline helper in pkt_cls.h, as a
wrapper around tcf_classify() for use by qdisc classify functions and
tcf_qevent_handle(). When the classify verdict is TC_ACT_REDIRECT,
the wrapper converts it to TC_ACT_SHOT, dropping the packet rather
than letting it continue silently. Dropping is preferred over
letting the packet through because the user immediately sees packet
loss. Silently passing the packet through would hide the problem and
leave the user wondering why their redirect is not working.
The clsact fast path, tc_run() continues to call tcf_classify() directly
and is unaffected: TC_ACT_REDIRECT is returned as-is and handled by
sch_handle_egress/ingress() calling skb_do_redirect() as before. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/irdma: Prevent user-triggered null deref on QP create
Previously, the user QP creation path would only attempt to
populate iwqp->iwpbl if the user-provided req.user_wqe_bufs
field was non-zero. The problem is that iwqp->iwpbl is
unconditionally dereferenced later on in irdma_setup_virt_qp.
While there was a check for iwqp->iwpbl != NULL, this check
would only occur if req.user_wqe_bufs was non-zero. The end
result is that a user could send a zero user_wqe_bufs value
and trigger a null ptr deref.
Fix this by unconditionally calling irdma_get_pbl and bailing
if it fails, similar to the CQ and SRQ paths. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Handle partially initialized auxiliary devices
bnxt_aux_devices_init() calls auxiliary_device_init() before all fields
used by bnxt_aux_dev_release() are initialized. After
auxiliary_device_init() succeeds, later errors must unwind with
auxiliary_device_uninit(), which invokes the release callback.
The release callback assumes that aux_priv->id, aux_priv->edev,
edev->net and edev->ulp_tbl are all populated. If allocation fails
after auxiliary_device_init(), the release path can otherwise dereference
or clear partially initialized state.
Allocate and attach the bnxt_en_dev and ULP table before calling
auxiliary_device_init(), so the release callback only sees a fully
initialized auxiliary private object. If auxiliary_device_init() itself
fails, free those allocations directly because device_initialize() has not
run and the release callback will not be invoked.
This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by manual
source review. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/vc4: hvs/v3d: Fix null dereference in unbind
The hvs and v3d drivers use dev_get_drvdata(master) in their unbind
functions. Since the vc4-drm gets removed before its dependent drivers
(vc4_hvs/vc4_v3d) the vc4_hvs_unbind/vc4_v3d_unbind functions try to
get drvdata of its master and fails with a null dereference error.
Use the data pointer passed to the unbind functions directly instead of
dev_get_drvdata(master). This avoids using potentially freed memory. |

drm/amdgpu: Fix context pstate override handling
There are several problems in the context pstate handling code.
The most serious ones are potential use-after-free and NULL pointer
dereferences at context initialization time. Both are due
amdgpu_ctx_init() not holding the adev->pm.stable_pstate_ctx_lock, which
is otherwise used from both sysfs and the context code itself for
modifying and clearing the stored context pointer.
Second issue is that context fini can trample over the pstate
configuration set via sysfs. This is due the restore state
(ctx->stable_pstate) being saved at context init time, and not if, or when
the context actually changes the pstate. As the context exits it will
therefore incorrectly restore to what was set before the sysfs override
was requested.
The simplest fix is to drastically simplify how the state is tracked, by
clearly defining the points at which pstate ownership is taken and
released, and to handle all transitions under the correct lock.
Instead of at context init time, the previous state is saved only at the
point the context overrides the current state, and is restored on context
exit only if the context is still the owner of the current override state.
