| 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:
net/smc: protect clcsock lifetime in smc_getname
smc_getname() dereferences smc->clcsock without holding
clcsock_release_lock. Link-group termination can release the CLC socket
through smc_close_active_abort() while the SMC socket is still open,
for example after shutdown(SHUT_WR).
A getsockname() caller can load smc->clcsock, then the termination worker
can clear the pointer and call sock_release() before the caller accesses
clcsock->ops or invokes getname(). This causes a use-after-free; if the
worker clears the pointer before the load, it causes a NULL dereference.
The syscall's file reference keeps the SMC socket alive but does not
prevent asynchronous release of its CLC socket.
KASAN reported the following with test-only timing instrumentation:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/vm: nuke PTs only after unlinking contested VMAs
In xe_vm_close_and_put(), external-BO VMAs are queued on the contested
list for deferred destruction via xe_vma_destroy_unlocked(). However,
xe_vm_pt_destroy() was previously invoked before processing contested
VMAs, destroying vm->pt_root while those VMAs were still linked to their
respective buffer objects (vm_bo->list.gpuva).
If a concurrent thread evicts one of those shared buffer objects,
xe_bo_trigger_rebind() holding only bo->resv walks the BO's VMAs and, in
fault mode, calls xe_vm_invalidate_vma() -> xe_pt_zap_ptes(). Because
vm->pt_root[tile->id] is already NULL, dereferencing pt->level causes a
NULL ptr deref.
Fix this by deferring xe_vm_free_scratch() and xe_vm_pt_destroy() until
after all contested VMAs have been unlinked and destroyed.
User is reporting hitting a NULL ptr deref in xe_pt_zap_ptes(), which
could be explained by this race.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
optee: register TEE devices only once fully initialized
optee_probe() called tee_device_register() on both the client and the
supplicant device before the rest of struct optee had been initialized.
tee_device_register() calls cdev_device_add(), which does two things at
once: it creates /dev/tee0 and /dev/teepriv0, and it links the device
into the tee class so that class_find_device() can find it. From that
moment on the device is reachable both from user space via tee_open()
and from kernel space via tee_client_open_context(). The only gate in
teedev_open() is tee_device_get(), which merely checks that
teedev->desc is non-NULL, which was already set by tee_device_alloc().
Therefore, there is effectively no gate at all.
A context opened in that window can run against a struct optee where
- optee->call_queue.mutex is not initialized by optee_cq_init()
- optee->supp mutex and completions is not initialized by
optee_supp_init()
- optee->rpmb_dev_mutex is not initialized yet,
- the message argument cache is not initialized by
optee_shm_arg_cache_init()
- optee->ctx is still NULL
Any open session or invoke during this window takes uninitialized
mutexes and dereferences a NULL pointer.
Fix it by moving both tee_device_register() calls down to the point
where all of struct optee is set up.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mctp: publish the mctp_dev only after it is initialised
mctp_add_dev() links the new mctp_dev into dev->mctp_ptr before mdev->dev
is assigned, so a reader that picks the device up in that window
dereferences a net_device pointer that is still NULL:

Fix by publishing only once the object is fully initialised:
__mctp_dev_get() runs under rcu_read_lock() only and hands
this object to readers as soon as mctp_ptr is assigned, so
they must never observe mdev->dev == NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
of/overlay: only treat a positive changeset id as registered
of_overlay_fdt_apply() stores the idr_alloc() return value in
ovcs->id before checking it. On failure the stored id is negative,
free_overlay_changeset()'s "if (ovcs->id)" check passes, idr_remove()
is called with a negative id and list_del() runs on ovcs->ovcs_list,
which is not initialized until after the id allocation. An allocation
failure at that point dereferences NULL.
Make free_overlay_changeset() treat only a strict-positive id as
registered. The rest of the function already copes with a
partially-initialized ovcs, so the error path stays a plain
goto err_free_ovcs. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dm-integrity: fix NULL pointer dereference when the 'R' flag is used
If the dm-integrity device has the SB_FLAG_DIRTY_BITMAP flag set and the
user activates the device in the 'R' mode, a crash in dm_integrity_resume
happens because the function attempts to read the journal containing the
bitmap.
This patch makes dm-integrity skip any writes to the device in
dm_integrity_resume if the device is activated in the 'R' mode. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: stop route notification sizing when nexthop group shrinks
Commit 680aea08e78c ("net: ipv4: Emit notification when fib
hardware flags are changed") added an RCU-only fib_nlmsg_size() call
for asynchronous hardware flag notifications.
fib_nlmsg_size() checks fib_info_num_path() before each iteration,
then fib_info_nhc() independently reloads nh->nh_grp. If
RTM_NEWNEXTHOP replaces a group with fewer paths between those loads,
fib_info_nhc() returns NULL and fib_nexthop_nlmsg_size() dereferences
it.
Stop sizing when the indexed path is absent. Nexthop groups are
dense, so the current snapshot has no later path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: stop PMTU walk when nexthop group shrinks
Commit 7d3f3b4367f3 ("net: ipv4: Cache pmtu for all packet paths if
multipath enabled") made __ip_rt_update_pmtu() update every path.
For nexthop objects, fib_info_num_path() and fib_info_nhc()
independently load nh->nh_grp. RCU protects each group's lifetime but
does not make the loads observe the same group. If replacement shrinks
the group after the loop accepts an index, fib_info_nhc() returns NULL
and update_or_create_fnhe() dereferences it.
A deterministic probe only widened the existing window between the real
operations. On v7.2, an RTM_NEWNEXTHOP replacement published a
one-member group after the PMTU reader accepted index 1 from a two-member
group, producing:
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000000007]
RIP: update_or_create_fnhe+0x45/0x15b0
Stop when the indexed path is absent. Groups are dense, so no later
index exists in that snapshot. The same real-writer window completed
114,423 PMTU iterations without an oops with this check. A reproducer
is available on request.
Replacement requires CAP_NET_ADMIN in the network namespace. Where
unprivileged user namespaces are permitted, a local user can obtain it
in a new user and network namespace. |
| The MCTP-over-I2C+GPIO target binding in subsys/pmci/mctp/mctp_i2c_gpio_target.c emulates a small pseudo-register file, where the bus controller first writes a register number and then writes or reads payload bytes. The selected register (b->reg_addr) and the data-phase flag (b->rxtx) were never cleared when the controller issued an I2C STOP, so after a completed transfer the target still had a data register selected while the packet buffer that register refers to had already been consumed and set to NULL by mctp_i2c_gpio_target_stop().
A controller on the bus can re-enter the same branch of mctp_i2c_gpio_target_stop() with a NULL buffer using two ordinary transactions and no authentication: first a normal packet write to MCTP_I2C_GPIO_RX_MSG_ADDR followed by STOP (which delivers and frees b->rx_pkt), then a bare read transaction followed by STOP. The failing read_requested() call leaves the stale state untouched and the I2C driver still delivers the STOP callback, which then calls mctp_bus_rx() with a NULL packet. The symmetric case exists on the transmit side, where the stale MCTP_I2C_GPIO_TX_MSG_ADDR selection dereferences b->tx_pkt->end after b->tx_pkt has been cleared and additionally signals b->tx_complete a second time, causing the next outbound packet to be dropped.
The dereference happens in the I2C target interrupt handler, so on any target that traps accesses to address 0 the result is a fatal exception and a device reset or halt — a denial of service inflicted by any device able to act as controller on the shared management bus (for example compromised firmware on a peer MCTP endpoint or on the BMC). On parts where address 0 is readable, the impact degrades to a malformed packet buffer being handed to the MCTP stack and lost transmit packets. No attacker-controlled value is written and no confidentiality or integrity boundary is crossed.
The fix resets b->reg_addr to MCTP_I2C_GPIO_INVALID_ADDR and clears b->rxtx at every STOP, so a new register must be selected before any data phase can run again. Only builds that opt into the experimental CONFIG_MCTP subsystem with CONFIG_MCTP_I2C_GPIO_TARGET=y are affected. |
| Apache Traffic Server can crash with a null pointer dereference when a client POST request is torn down via half-close while a chunked origin response is being reparsed from a reentrant write-ready callback, a timing-dependent race introduced by the CVE-2021-32564 flow-control backports.
This issue affects Apache Traffic Server: 9.2.15, 10.1.4, 10.2.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 9.2.16, 10.1.5, or 10.2.1, which fix the issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
workqueue: Fix NULL current_pwq deref in chained work check
current_wq_worker() only tells us that %current is a kworker. It does
not guarantee that the worker is currently executing a work item, as
worker->current_pwq is populated only while process_one_work() is running
the work function.
is_chained_work() can be reached while queueing on a draining or
destroying workqueue. If a kworker outside work-item execution reaches
that path, current_wq_worker() returns a worker but worker->current_pwq is
NULL, and the chained-work test can fault before it emits the intended
warning.
Guard the chained-work test with worker->current_pwq. A kworker without
current_pwq is not executing work on the target workqueue, so the helper
should return false and let the draining/destroying warning fire. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7603: initialize global station WCID
mt7603 uses a driver-private global station WCID for frames that have
neither a station nor a vif, including frames injected through a monitor
interface. Unlike the core global WCID initialized by
mt76_register_device(), this WCID is published without ever being passed
to mt76_wcid_init().
Since commit 0335c034e726 ("wifi: mt76: fix race condition related to
checking tx queue fill status"), mt76_tx() queues every such frame on the
WCID's tx_pending or tx_offchannel queue and links its tx_list. The first
injected frame therefore reaches __skb_queue_tail() with an uninitialized
sk_buff_head and dereferences a NULL prev pointer.
Initialize the WCID before publishing it.
The fix was tested on an MT7603 PCIe device. Three wildcard probe requests
were injected through a monitor interface. The hardware queue head and tail
advanced from 0 to 3 and a second radio captured the third request over the
air. No oops or reset occurred. After restoring AP mode, a 150 MB transfer
also completed without a reset. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cgroup/cpuset: Handle cpu hotplug race in guarantee_active_cpus()
With commit 2125c0034c5d ("cgroup/cpuset: Make cpuset hotplug processing
synchronous"), the cpuset hotplug operation becomes synchronous. That
commit also removes the code that handles race between cpuset_hotplug_work
and cpu hotplug notifier with the assumption that race is now gone.
Later commit 7a0aabd9ce69 ("cgroup/cpuset: Always use cpu_active_mask")
updates the cpuset code to always use cpu_active_mask instead of
cpu_online_mask in some places including guarantee_online_cpus() which
is renamed to guarantee_active_cpus() in that commit.
In the case of CPU offline operation, cpu_active_mask is updated
first in sched_cpu_deactivate() to remove the offline CPU before
cpuset_handle_hotplug() is called to update the effective_cpus of the
affected cpusets. The cpu_online_mask is updated after that near the end
of the offline operation to remove the offline CPU. As a result, the race
comes back and the top cpuset may not have any active CPU leading to NULL
pointer dereference during the race window when guarantee_active_cpus()
is called after cpu_active_mask is updated to remove the CPU to be torn
down but before cpuset_handle_hotplug() is able to properly update the
effective_cpus of the top cpuset.
Fix this by adding back the NULL cs check to avoid this problem. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: stop exception dump when nexthop group shrinks
Commit 4ce5dc9316de ("inet: switch inet_dump_fib() to RCU
protection") allowed IPv4 FIB dumps to run concurrently with nexthop
replacement.
fib_dump_info_fnhe() uses fib_info_num_path() as the loop bound,
then fib_info_nhc() independently reloads nh->nh_grp. If
RTM_NEWNEXTHOP replaces a group with fewer paths between those loads,
fib_info_nhc() returns NULL and the dump dereferences it through
nhc_flags.
Stop the walk when the indexed path is absent. Nexthop groups are
dense, so the current snapshot has no later path. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: sr: use skb_get_hash_net() in seg6_make_flowlabel()
Since commit d58e468b1112 ("flow_dissector: implements flow dissector
BPF hook") __skb_flow_dissect() needs a net pointer, either from
skb->dev, skb->sk, or since commit 3cbf4ffba5ee ("net: plumb network
namespace into __skb_flow_dissect") a caller provided pointer.
syzbot was able to reach seg6_make_flowlabel() with an skb having
neither skb->dev nor skb->sk set: a TIPC UDP bearer sends a discovery
message through an IPv4 route using seg6 encap, while
net.ipv6.seg6_flowlabel is set to 1.
seg6_make_flowlabel() already has a net pointer, use skb_get_hash_net().

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
namespace: refuse an automount below a mount that is in no namespace
It's possible to add autmounts even when the parent mount isn't in the
mount namespace of the caller. The only requirement we have is that the
parent mount namespace must not be NULL, i.e., unmounted.
Problem is that clone_private_mount() has MNT_NS_INTERNAL which makes
that trivially true. So that passes the test and attach_recursive_mnt()
accepts that as a mount point and funny enough, count_mounts()
dereferences MNT_NS_INTERNAL. The problem is it is an error pointer...
So we can reach this in userspace via fanotify. A filesystem mark on the
lower filesystem of an overlay reports paths on the layer clone and
reading the event hands out a descriptor on it. For example with debugfs
as the lower layer it goes kaboom:
openat(evfd, "tracing", O_DIRECTORY)
Oops: general protection fault
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x1d0-0x1d7]
RIP: 0010:count_mounts+0x35/0x200
attach_recursive_mnt
finish_automount
And since that sleeping beauty happens under namespace_sem held for
writing every mount operation on the system blocks from then on.
Congrats.
Use is_mounted() instead which rejects unmounted and internal mounts
alike. The open fails with EINVAL just as it did before
clone_private_mount() used MNT_NS_INTERNAL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tcp: reject net_iov in zerocopy receive mapping hints
After copying a readable prefix, receive_fallback_to_copy() asks
tcp_zerocopy_set_hint_for_skb() where page mapping can resume. If the
next skb is unreadable, find_next_mappable_frag() passes its net_iov
fragment to can_map_frag().
skb_frag_page() returns NULL for a net_iov, but can_map_frag()
dereferences it in PageCompound(). A v7.2 KASAN run on a connected TCP
socket with 64 readable bytes followed by a 4096-byte NET_IOV_DMABUF
fragment reported:
BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in can_map_frag
tcp_zerocopy_receive -> can_map_frag
Kernel panic - not syncing: KASAN: panic_on_warn set
The diagnostic inserted the net_iov directly because the test host has
no devmem-capable NIC. Hardware end-to-end reachability remains untested
and requires CONFIG_NET_DEVMEM plus a supported DMA-buf-bound RX queue.
Reject all net_iov fragments before skb_frag_page(). This covers both
DMABUF and IOURING net_iov types while leaving page-backed checks
unchanged. With the guard, the same queue copied the readable prefix,
returned a 4096-byte skip hint, and completed without a fault. |

Bluetooth: RFCOMM: Fix NULL tty_dev dereference in rfcomm_dev_shutdown
syzbot hit a NULL pointer dereference in rfcomm_dev_shutdown() when an
RFCOMM tty is closed.
rfcomm_dev_add() puts the new device on rfcomm_dev_list first and only
then registers the tty device and saves it in dev->tty_dev. If that
registration fails, dev->tty_dev is never set at all. The device can be
looked up in the meantime, so an open() of /dev/rfcommN gets through
rfcomm_tty_install() and attaches to it. When that tty is closed again,
rfcomm_dev_shutdown() uses dev->tty_dev without checking it:

Bluetooth: hci_sock: Serialize dead-device detachment
Rebinding an HCI socket after its controller is unregistered can race
monitor control replay and crash the kernel. hci_sock_bind() clears
hci_pi(sk)->hdev and drops the device reference under only the socket
lock, whereas send_monitor_control_replay() holds hci_sk_list.lock for
reading.
Replay can observe a non-NULL hdev, then bind can clear it and drop the
last reference before create_monitor_ctrl_open() reads hdev->id. This
can cause a NULL pointer dereference if the pointer is reloaded, or a
use-after-free if the old pointer is retained.
The kernel reported:
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000068-0x000000000000006f]

The same missing serialization lets hci_send_to_sock() select a socket

or installed a new binding.
Take hci_sk_list.lock for writing when clearing the device pointer and
resetting the socket state. This waits for existing replay and delivery
readers to finish before detachment and prevents later readers from
using the old binding. Keep hci_dev_put() outside the critical section
because the final device release can sleep. |
