CVSS v3.1 |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
acct: perform last write from workqueue
In [1] it was reported that the acct(2) system call can be used to
trigger NULL deref in cases where it is set to write to a file that
triggers an internal lookup. This can e.g., happen when pointing acc(2)
to /sys/power/resume. At the point the where the write to this file
happens the calling task has already exited and called exit_fs(). A
lookup will thus trigger a NULL-deref when accessing current->fs.
Reorganize the code so that the the final write happens from the
workqueue but with the caller's credentials. This preserves the
(strange) permission model and has almost no regression risk.
This api should stop to exist though. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: Add check for next_buffer in receive_encrypted_standard()
Add check for the return value of cifs_buf_get() and cifs_small_buf_get()
in receive_encrypted_standard() to prevent null pointer dereference. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ptp: Ensure info->enable callback is always set
The ioctl and sysfs handlers unconditionally call the ->enable callback.
Not all drivers implement that callback, leading to NULL dereferences.
Example of affected drivers: ptp_s390.c, ptp_vclock.c and ptp_mock.c.
Instead use a dummy callback if no better was specified by the driver. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
firewire: test: Fix potential null dereference in firewire kunit test
kunit_kzalloc() may return a NULL pointer, dereferencing it without
NULL check may lead to NULL dereference.
Add a NULL check for test_state. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vxlan: check vxlan_vnigroup_init() return value
vxlan_init() must check vxlan_vnigroup_init() success
otherwise a crash happens later, spotted by syzbot.

gpiolib: Fix crash on error in gpiochip_get_ngpios()
The gpiochip_get_ngpios() uses chip_*() macros to print messages.
However these macros rely on gpiodev to be initialised and set,
which is not the case when called via bgpio_init(). In such a case
the printing messages will crash on NULL pointer dereference.
Replace chip_*() macros by the respective dev_*() ones to avoid
such crash. |

The cause of this error is that the device has two interfaces, and the
hub driver binds to interface 1 instead of interface 0, which is where
usb_hub_to_struct_hub() looks.
We can prevent the problem from occurring by refusing to accept hub
devices that violate the USB spec by having more than one
configuration or interface. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: ctucanfd: handle skb allocation failure
If skb allocation fails, the pointer to struct can_frame is NULL. This
is actually handled everywhere inside ctucan_err_interrupt() except for
the only place.
Add the missed NULL check.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE static
analysis tool. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: rockchip: rkcanfd_handle_rx_fifo_overflow_int(): bail out if skb cannot be allocated
Fix NULL pointer check in rkcanfd_handle_rx_fifo_overflow_int() to
bail out if skb cannot be allocated. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
can: etas_es58x: fix potential NULL pointer dereference on udev->serial
The driver assumed that es58x_dev->udev->serial could never be NULL.
While this is true on commercially available devices, an attacker
could spoof the device identity providing a NULL USB serial number.
That would trigger a NULL pointer dereference.
Add a check on es58x_dev->udev->serial before accessing it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: brcmfmac: fix NULL pointer dereference in brcmf_txfinalize()
On removal of the device or unloading of the kernel module a potential NULL
pointer dereference occurs.
The following sequence deletes the interface:
brcmf_detach()
brcmf_remove_interface()
brcmf_del_if()
Inside the brcmf_del_if() function the drvr->if2bss[ifidx] is updated to
BRCMF_BSSIDX_INVALID (-1) if the bsscfgidx matches.
After brcmf_remove_interface() call the brcmf_proto_detach() function is
called providing the following sequence:
brcmf_detach()
brcmf_proto_detach()
brcmf_proto_msgbuf_detach()
brcmf_flowring_detach()
brcmf_msgbuf_delete_flowring()
brcmf_msgbuf_remove_flowring()
brcmf_flowring_delete()
brcmf_get_ifp()
brcmf_txfinalize()
Since brcmf_get_ip() can and actually will return NULL in this case the
call to brcmf_txfinalize() will result in a NULL pointer dereference inside
brcmf_txfinalize() when trying to update ifp->ndev->stats.tx_errors.
This will only happen if a flowring still has an skb.
Although the NULL pointer dereference has only been seen when trying to
update the tx statistic, all other uses of the ifp pointer have been
guarded as well with an early return if ifp is NULL. |

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:

drm/v3d: Ensure job pointer is set to NULL after job completion
After a job completes, the corresponding pointer in the device must
be set to NULL. Failing to do so triggers a warning when unloading
the driver, as it appears the job is still active. To prevent this,
assign the job pointer to NULL after completing the job, indicating
the job has finished. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86: dell-uart-backlight: fix serdev race
The dell_uart_bl_serdev_probe() function calls devm_serdev_device_open()
before setting the client ops via serdev_device_set_client_ops(). This
ordering can trigger a NULL pointer dereference in the serdev controller's
receive_buf handler, as it assumes serdev->ops is valid when
SERPORT_ACTIVE is set.
This is similar to the issue fixed in commit 5e700b384ec1
("platform/chrome: cros_ec_uart: properly fix race condition") where
devm_serdev_device_open() was called before fully initializing the
device.
Fix the race by ensuring client ops are set before enabling the port via
devm_serdev_device_open().
Note, serdev_device_set_baudrate() and serdev_device_set_flow_control()
calls should be after the devm_serdev_device_open() call. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: serial: quatech2: fix null-ptr-deref in qt2_process_read_urb()
This patch addresses a null-ptr-deref in qt2_process_read_urb() due to
an incorrect bounds check in the following:
if (newport > serial->num_ports) {
dev_err(&port->dev,
"%s - port change to invalid port: %i\n",
__func__, newport);
break;
}
The condition doesn't account for the valid range of the serial->port
buffer, which is from 0 to serial->num_ports - 1. When newport is equal
to serial->num_ports, the assignment of "port" in the
following code is out-of-bounds and NULL:
serial_priv->current_port = newport;
port = serial->port[serial_priv->current_port];
The fix checks if newport is greater than or equal to serial->num_ports
indicating it is out-of-bounds. |

eth: bnxt: always recalculate features after XDP clearing, fix null-deref
Recalculate features when XDP is detached.
Before:
# ip li set dev eth0 xdp obj xdp_dummy.bpf.o sec xdp
# ip li set dev eth0 xdp off
# ethtool -k eth0 | grep gro
rx-gro-hw: off [requested on]
After:
# ip li set dev eth0 xdp obj xdp_dummy.bpf.o sec xdp
# ip li set dev eth0 xdp off
# ethtool -k eth0 | grep gro
rx-gro-hw: on
The fact that HW-GRO doesn't get re-enabled automatically is just
a minor annoyance. The real issue is that the features will randomly
come back during another reconfiguration which just happens to invoke
netdev_update_features(). The driver doesn't handle reconfiguring
two things at a time very robustly.
Starting with commit 98ba1d931f61 ("bnxt_en: Fix RSS logic in
__bnxt_reserve_rings()") we only reconfigure the RSS hash table
if the "effective" number of Rx rings has changed. If HW-GRO is
enabled "effective" number of rings is 2x what user sees.
So if we are in the bad state, with HW-GRO re-enablement "pending"
after XDP off, and we lower the rings by / 2 - the HW-GRO rings
doing 2x and the ethtool -L doing / 2 may cancel each other out,
and the:
if (old_rx_rings != bp->hw_resc.resv_rx_rings &&
condition in __bnxt_reserve_rings() will be false.
The RSS map won't get updated, and we'll crash with:

As we try to access a freed ring.
The issue is present since XDP support was added, really, but
prior to commit 98ba1d931f61 ("bnxt_en: Fix RSS logic in
__bnxt_reserve_rings()") it wasn't causing major issues. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: fec: handle page_pool_dev_alloc_pages error
The fec_enet_update_cbd function calls page_pool_dev_alloc_pages but did
not handle the case when it returned NULL. There was a WARN_ON(!new_page)
but it would still proceed to use the NULL pointer and then crash.
This case does seem somewhat rare but when the system is under memory
pressure it can happen. One case where I can duplicate this with some
frequency is when writing over a smbd share to a SATA HDD attached to an
imx6q.
Setting /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes to higher values also seems to solve
the problem for my test case. But it still seems wrong that the fec driver
ignores the memory allocation error and can crash.
This commit handles the allocation error by dropping the current packet. |
