CVSS v3.1 |
| strongSwan 4.1.10 through 6.0.7 allows a NULL pointer dereference in the eap-aka plugin. |
| A flaw has been found in IOBit Uninstaller 15.5.0.11. Affected by this issue is the function sub_11838 of the file IURegistryFilter.sys of the component IOCTL Dispatch Handler. This manipulation causes null pointer dereference. The attack requires local access. The exploit has been published and may be used. Identical IURegistryFilter.sys ships across multiple IObit families. The vendor was contacted early about this disclosure but did not respond in any way. |
| S2OPC through 1.7.3 contains a null pointer dereference in msg_subscription_publish_bs__alloc_notification_message_items() where a failed allocation for DataChangeNotification is overwritten by a successful allocation for EventNotificationList. Attackers can trigger heap allocation failures on sessions with both data-change and event notifications to cause the server process to terminate. |
| A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability exists in the Prism parser component of mruby 4.0.0. An attacker can provide a specially crafted Ruby source file that triggers the parser to pass a NULL pointer to nonnull string handling functions, resulting in undefined behavior and application crash. |
| A flaw has been found in GPAC up to f1219cde. This issue affects the function gf_node_list_get_child of the file scenegraph/base_scenegraph.c of the component MP4Box. This manipulation of the argument Target causes null pointer dereference. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been published and may be used. Upgrading to version abi-16.23 is capable of addressing this issue. Patch name: afca1f1181668d85941d51ed1adf647807d5d975. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component. |

| An issue in Free5GC v.4.2.2 allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via the UPF component |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmi: si: Fix NULL pointer dereference after failed registration
try_smi_init() allocates new_smi->si_sm and later calls
ipmi_register_smi_mod(), which maps to ipmi_add_smi().
During ipmi_add_smi(), the upper IPMI message handler obtains the
initial BMC device information through __bmc_get_device_id(). This can
fail if the BMC does not return a successful response to the Get Device
ID command.
When the BMC returns a nonzero completion code, the device-id helper
retries the command and eventually returns -EIO if the device ID still
cannot be fetched.
On this failure path, ipmi_add_smi() logs "Unable to get the device id"
and goes to out_err_started, where it invokes the lower driver's
shutdown callback. try_smi_init() then logs the returned registration
failure:
ipmi_si IPI0001:00: IPMI message handler: Unable to get the device id: -5
ipmi_si IPI0001:00: Unable to register device: error -5
For ipmi_si, the shutdown callback is shutdown_smi(), which cleans up
the SI state machine data, frees smi_info->si_sm, and sets
smi_info->si_sm and smi_info->intf to NULL.
However, intf->in_shutdown is not set on this failed-registration
rollback path. Therefore, the asynchronous redo_bmc_reg work item can
still retry BMC device-id probing after the lower driver has already
cleared its SI state machine data. In the observed case, that retry path
reached start_next_msg(), which passed the NULL smi_info->si_sm pointer
to the selected KCS state machine handler:

Set intf->in_shutdown on the out_err_started path before invoking the
lower driver's shutdown callback. This prevents later redo_bmc_reg
retries from using an interface whose lower driver state has been
cleaned up, and applies the same shutdown state to other IPMI interfaces
as well. |
| The MQTT-SN client keepalive handler process_ping() in subsys/net/lib/mqtt_sn/mqtt_sn.c removes the gateway record after PINGREQ retries are exhausted. It invoked SYS_SLIST_PEEK_HEAD_CONTAINER(&client->gateways, gw, next) but discarded the result. That macro is a pure expression that does not assign to gw, so gw retained its NULL initializer regardless of the list contents.
The code then dereferences the NULL gw (gw->gw_id) and passes it to mqtt_sn_gw_destroy(), reaching k_mem_slab_free(&gateways, NULL). With CONFIG_MEM_SLAB_POINTER_VALIDATE enabled this triggers k_panic(); in the default configuration it performs a write through the NULL pointer ((char )mem = slab->free_list;) and corrupts the slab free list. The outcome is a crash/kernel panic or, on targets where address 0 is writable, silent memory-allocator corruption.
The vulnerable branch runs whenever the connected MQTT-SN gateway fails to answer keepalive PINGREQs for the configured number of retries. This condition is controlled by the remote peer: a malicious or compromised gateway, or an on-path/adjacent attacker that advertises itself as a gateway and then stops responding (or blackholes the real gateway's PINGRESPs), forces the client into the defect. MQTT-SN runs over UDP and no authentication is required.
The impact is a remotely triggerable denial of service (availability) of the affected MQTT-SN client; there is no attacker-controlled data written. The sibling remover process_advertise() uses SYS_SLIST_FOR_EACH_CONTAINER_SAFE and is not affected. The fix assigns the macro's return value to gw. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix crash passing ERR_PTR to kthread_stop()
event_test_stuff() calls kthread_run() and unconditionally passes the
returned task_struct pointer to kthread_stop(). kthread_run() returns an
error pointer such as ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) when kthread creation fails, for
example under memory pressure during the boot-time event self-test.
kthread_stop() then dereferences the invalid pointer, crashing the kernel.
Check the result of kthread_run() before passing it to kthread_stop(). Use
WARN_ON() so that a failure to create the self-test thread does not go
unnoticed, matching the ring-buffer self-test fix in commit
91542863abad ("ring-buffer: Fix crash passing ERR_PTR to kthread_stop()"). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: remove flawed WARN_ON_ONCE from nfsd_mode_check
The header for commit e75b23f9e323 ("nfsd: check d_can_lookup in
fh_verify of directories") details the assumption that justified
adding the WARN_ON_ONCE to nfsd_mode_check(), that assumption is
invalid (in the case of NFS reexport).
When NFSD exports an NFS filesystem it is very possible for
nfsd_mode_check() to encounter a @dentry that doesn't have
i_op->lookup (see nfs_fhget()'s NFS_ATTR_FATTR_MOUNTPOINT and
NFS_ATTR_FATTR_V4_REFERRAL handling, and d_flags_for_inode()).
So remove nfsd_mode_check()'s WARN_ON_ONCE(). The nfserr_notdir
return on that branch must stay. It guards the subsequent
lookup_one_unlocked() -> __lookup_slow() path, which calls
inode->i_op->lookup() with no NULL check, so returning nfserr_notdir
is what keeps a client LOOKUP into such a @dentry from dereferencing
a NULL method pointer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: block non-SAVEFH ops after FOREIGN PUTFH to prevent NULL deref
When CONFIG_NFSD_V4_2_INTER_SSC is enabled, nfsd4_putfh() can return
success with fh_dentry and fh_export both NULL if fh_verify() returns
nfserr_stale and putfh->no_verify is true. The NFSD4_FH_FOREIGN flag
is set, but the compound dispatch loop only uses this flag to bypass
the nfserr_nofilehandle check -- it does not prevent subsequent ops
from running with a NULL fh_dentry.
A remote client can exploit this by crafting a COMPOUND that includes
an inter-SSC COPY (which causes check_if_stalefh_allowed() to set
no_verify=true on the saved PUTFH) with an additional op inserted
between the source PUTFH and SAVEFH. For example, SETATTR calls
fh_want_write() which dereferences fh_export->ex_path.mnt without
calling fh_verify() first, causing a NULL pointer dereference in the
nfsd kthread.
Fix this by gating the dispatch loop: when NFSD4_FH_FOREIGN is set
and fh_dentry is NULL, only OP_SAVEFH (needed for the inter-SSC flow)
and ops with ALLOWED_WITHOUT_FH (which don't need a resolved
filehandle) may proceed. All other ops receive nfserr_stale, per
RFC 7862 Section 15.2.3 which specifies that foreign filehandle
validation is deferred to the consuming operation and NFS4ERR_STALE
returned at that point. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSD: Prevent lock owner use-after-free during client teardown
__destroy_client() releases a client's open owners, but a lock owner
whose only reference is a blocked lock (nbl) stays on
cl_ownerstr_hashtbl. client_has_state() does not count a bare owner,
so DESTROY_CLIENTID can reach __destroy_client() with such owners
present.
__destroy_client() then walks the table, calling remove_blocked_locks()
on each owner without a reference. Freeing a blocked lock drops the
owner reference held via flc_owner. The per-net laundromat reaps
blocked locks from nn->blocked_locks_lru independently of client state.
The two paths share blocked_locks_lock only for the list splice, not
the owner's lifetime. The laundromat therefore frees the owner as
__destroy_client() dereferences it, a NULL dereference in
remove_blocked_locks().
nfsd4_release_lockowner() holds a reference across the same call;
__destroy_client() does not. Hold cl_lock across the walk, taking a
reference and unhashing each owner, then drop it before
remove_blocked_locks() and nfs4_put_stateowner(), which take
blocked_locks_lock and cl_lock. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
SUNRPC: Check svc pool percpu counter allocation
__svc_create() initializes three per-pool percpu_counter stats and
ignores every return value. On SMP, percpu_counter_init() fails when
__alloc_percpu_gfp() cannot satisfy the allocation, leaving the failed
counter with fbc->counters == NULL and its embedded raw_spinlock_t,
list_head, and count never initialized. __svc_create() returns the
half-constructed svc_serv to nfsd, lockd, or the NFS callback service
anyway.
Once that service is live, the hot-path increments in
svc_xprt_enqueue(), svc_handle_xprt(), and
svc_pool_wake_idle_thread() reach a counter whose backing pointer is
NULL. The pointer is a per-cpu offset, so the access does not fault:
it resolves to offset zero of the current CPU's per-cpu area and
silently corrupts whatever variable lives there. A
/proc/fs/nfsd/pool_stats read walks the same NULL per-cpu storage and
returns garbage, and on CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK or lockdep it splats on
the never-initialized lock.
Creating the broken service requires a percpu allocation failure during
RPC server startup, so it is reachable only by a local administrator
under memory pressure or fault injection; a remote peer cannot induce
the bad state on its own.
Check each percpu_counter_init() return value in __svc_create() and
fail when an allocation fails, unwinding the counters already set up
in the current pool and in every pool initialized before it. A
discrete percpu_counter_destroy() per counter at teardown frees each
per-cpu allocation exactly once. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
qede: Fix NULL pointer dereference in TPA fragment processing
Under memory pressure, the qede driver encounters NULL pointer
dereferences when processing TPA continuation fragments.
Commit 8a8633978b84 ("qede: Add build_skb() support.") accidentally
dropped the assignment of tpa_info->buffer.data in qede_tpa_start().
When memory pressure causes an SKB allocation failure in qede_tpa_start(),
the driver sets tpa_start_fail = true and attempts to recycle the physical
page later in qede_tpa_end() via qede_reuse_page(). However, because
buffer.data was left uninitialized (NULL), qede_reuse_page() pushes a
"ghost" BD (valid DMA mapping but NULL data pointer) back into the
active Rx ring.
The next time the hardware uses this ring slot, it passes a NULL page
to qede_fill_frag_skb(), causing a kernel panic.
Example crash from production system:
BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0x8

Fix the root cause by restoring the tpa_info->buffer.data assignment
in qede_tpa_start(), ensuring valid pages are correctly tracked and
recycled. Additionally, update the stale comment for
struct qede_agg_info::buffer to reflect its current usage. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: fix NULL deref on untransmitted RECONF completion
sctp_process_strreset_outreq(), sctp_process_strreset_addstrm_out() and
sctp_process_strreset_resp() complete a pending stream reconfiguration
request by stopping the reconf timer on the transport it was sent on:
t = asoc->strreset_chunk->transport;
if (timer_delete(&t->reconf_timer))
sctp_transport_put(t);
chunk->transport is assigned by __sctp_packet_append_chunk() when the
chunk is appended to an outbound packet, and sctp_outq_flush_ctrl() arms
the reconf timer at that same point. A request already published in
asoc->strreset_chunk but not yet transmitted has neither, so completing
it dereferences NULL.
Two ways to get there. sctp_send_asconf_del_ip() sets
asoc->src_out_of_asoc_ok without sending anything when the address being
removed is the association's last one, and sctp_outq_flush_ctrl() then
leaves every non-ASCONF control chunk queued; as only
sctp_process_asconf_ack() clears that flag, it persists. An unprivileged
process that removes such an address and then asks for a stream reset
panics the kernel from softirq. A peer needs neither ASCONF nor local
help: sctp_cmd_interpreter() uncorks the outqueue only once the whole
packet has been processed, so a reply built while walking a RECONF chunk
stays untransmitted for the rest of that walk, and one RECONF chunk
carrying [Incoming SSN Reset Request, Outgoing SSN Reset Request,
Response] -- or two RECONF chunks in one packet -- reaches the same
dereference.

s390/cpum_cf: Handle CPU hotplug via prepare/dead callbacks
The command 'perf stat -e cycles -- <command>' crashes the kernel
when CPUs are hotplug added during that run.
Root cause is the allocation of struct cpu_cf_events at first
event initialization. The allocation is dynamic and the first
event that has task context creates such a structure for
each online CPU. This is not sufficient. CPUs may be offline
during event creation and can be set online during the
perf run time. For example commands
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
# perf stat -e cycles -i -- stress-ng -t10s --matrix X
# sleep 1
# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
create an event for CPUs 0,2-X. Since the events are created with
task-context, the scheduler will eventually schedule the program
on CPU1. This CPU has not created and initialized any per
CPU event infrastructure as that CPU was not online at the time
of the perf invocation. Thus when the scheduler runs stress-ng
on CPU1, the function cpumf_pmu_add() refers to a NULL pointer:
struct cpu_cf_events *cpuhw = this_cpu_cfhw();
This function call is invoked after the task stress-ng has been
made runnable on CPU1. And this_cpu_cfhw() returns NULL.
The result is a panic:

The issue arises only in per-task context when the CPUMF facility is
used and the scheduler picks a random CPU for such a process to run on.
The scheduler enables the CPUMF infrastructure via PMU callback
functions pmu::add() and pmu::del().
Introduce a CPU hotplug prepare/dead callback pair which creates and
removes the per CPU counter data while the CPU is offline. Count the
users which track every CPU (cpu == -1), that is perf_event_open()
events with task context and /dev/hwctr device sessions, in the new
counter cpu_cf_root::tskcnt, protected by pmc_reserve_mutex.
This ensures the infrastructure is available when
new CPU is selected to run the per-task context process.
In cpum_cf_free_root() and cpum_cf_free_cpu() ensure the reference
pointer to data structures is set to NULL before the data is freed
to prevent interrupt handlers to access stale data.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
s390/dasd: Guard sysfs discipline callbacks against unallocated private data
Several sysfs show/store handlers call a discipline callback that
dereferences device->private, either directly or through the
DASD_DEFINE_ATTR() macro. During dasd_generic_set_online() the discipline
is assigned before check_device() allocates device->private, so an
unprivileged read of one of these world-readable attributes in that window
dereferences a NULL pointer and panics.
Guard the dereference inside each callback that actually touches
device->private. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86: ISST: Validate socket ID in clos_assoc ioctl
isst_if_clos_assoc() validates the user-supplied socket_id with
'socket_id > topology_max_packages()', but isst_common.sst_inst[] is
allocated with topology_max_packages() entries, so the valid index range
is [0, topology_max_packages()). The '>' comparison lets
socket_id == topology_max_packages() pass and index one entry past the
array.
In addition, isst_common.sst_inst[socket_id] is NULL for an in-range
package that has no bound TPMI SST instance, and the pointer is used
without a NULL check. Both the out-of-bounds entry and the NULL pointer
are then dereferenced by map_partition_power_domain_id() and the
following power_domain_info access.
Reject socket_id >= topology_max_packages() and a NULL sst_inst, matching
the checks already performed by get_instance(). |
