| IBM MQ could allow an authenticated attacker with cluster access to cause a denial of service or potentially execute arbitrary code due to improper validation of cluster command message lengths. |
| A weakness has been identified in GNU Binutils 2.47. Affected is the function bfd_putl64 of the file bfd/libbfd.c of the component ld. This manipulation causes null pointer dereference. The attack requires local access. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. The project was informed of the problem early through a bug report but has not responded yet. |
| Null pointer dereference in Windows IKE Extension allows an unauthorized attacker to deny service over a network. |
| Apache Airflow Apache Kafka provider versions 1.15.0 before 2.0.0 resolve dotted-path strings found in a Kafka connection's `extra` field into Python callables via `import_string`, with no allowlist, and hand them to the confluent-kafka client which invokes them. Deployments that have enabled the Kafka event producer — `dag_run_events_enabled` or `task_instance_events_enabled`, both disabled by default — build that client inside the scheduler process, so a user whose only privilege is editing Airflow connections gains arbitrary code execution in the control plane; the Airflow security model limits connection-configuration users to code execution on workers, not the scheduler. Deployments using Google Managed Kafka are not affected, because that code path overwrites any user-supplied `oauth_cb`; plain brokers and Amazon MSK are exposed. Users are recommended to upgrade to apache-airflow-providers-apache-kafka 2.0.0 or later, which adds an allowlist configuration option for connection-string callbacks. |
| ImageMagick before 7.1.2-31 and before 6.9.13-56 contains a NULL pointer dereference in the PNM coder. When the coder reaches a memory (resource) limit at a specific point during processing, the failed allocation is not handled and a NULL pointer is dereferenced, which can lead to a denial of service (application crash) when processing a specially crafted or sufficiently large PNM image. |
| A Null Pointer Dereference in the mk_sched_event_close function (mk_server/mk_scheduler.c) of Monkey through commit 4fb0c16 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via sending a crafted HTTP request to the server. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: fix scope of mqd_mgr dereference in pqm_debugfs_mqds
Reading /sys/kernel/debug/kfd/mqds while a process holds an active KFD
queue triggers a NULL pointer dereference because the for loop that
calls mqd_mgr->debugfs_show_mqd() is incorrectly placed outside the
if (pqn->q) block that initializes mqd_mgr.
The queue list can contain entries where pqn->q is NULL (kernel queues
where only pqn->kq is valid). In the original code:
if (pqn->q) {
...
mqd_mgr = q->device->dqm->mqd_mgrs[mqd_type];
size = mqd_mgr->mqd_stride(...);
}
for (xcc = 0; xcc < num_xccs; xcc++) { // WRONG: outside if block
mqd = q->mqd + size * xcc;
r = mqd_mgr->debugfs_show_mqd(m, mqd);
}
When iterating over a queue node where pqn->q is NULL:
1. The if (pqn->q) block is skipped
2. mqd_mgr remains uninitialized (NULL from declaration)
3. The for loop executes anyway
4. mqd_mgr->debugfs_show_mqd(m, mqd) dereferences NULL
The crash manifests as:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
#PF: supervisor instruction fetch in kernel mode
RIP: 0010:0x0
Call Trace:

Fix by moving the for loop inside the if (pqn->q) block, so mqd_mgr
and related variables are only used when properly initialized.

| 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. |

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:
drm/amdgpu: Fix init ordering in amdgpu_vram_mgr_init()
drmm_cgroup_register_region() is called before INIT_LIST_HEAD() and
gpu_buddy_init() in amdgpu_vram_mgr_init(). If it fails, the function
returns early and bypasses those initializations.
Since adev->mman.initialized is set to true before amdgpu_vram_mgr_init()
is called, a failure triggers amdgpu_ttm_fini(), which calls
amdgpu_vram_mgr_fini(), which then:
- Calls list_for_each_entry_safe() on reservations_pending and
reserved_pages, whose list_head::next pointers are zero-initialized
(NULL). The loop does not recognize them as empty and dereferences NULL.
- Calls gpu_buddy_fini(), which iterates free_trees[] unconditionally
via for_each_free_tree(). Since mm->free_trees is NULL
(never allocated), this dereferences NULL.
Both result in a kernel panic on the module load error path.
Fix by moving drmm_cgroup_register_region() to after the list and buddy
allocator are fully initialized, so the teardown path is safe to run. |
| 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. |

mm/damon/core: avoid infinite kdamond_merge_regions() internal loop
Patch series "mm/damon: unurgent fixes for infinite loop, NULL de-ref and
races", v1.1.
Sashiko found a few issues in DAMON that could cause infinite loop, NULL
dereference and monitoring results degradation. The first two sounds
scary but the infinite loop happens only under unreasonable user setup.
The NULL dereference is only in a unit test. Monitoring results
degradation is trivial since it is only best-effort, and those happens
from only unlikely races. Still those are bugs that better to fix if
possible. Fix those.
This patch (of 6):
Due to online parameter update like events, the number of DAMON regions
could be higher than the user-set upper limit. kdamond_merge_regions()
repeats merge regions until the number meets the limit, while doubling the
merge threshold up to the theoretical maximum threshold. It is tried only
up to the theoretical maximum threshold because even the aggressive
merging can fail from reducing the number of regions under the
user-defined upper limit. For example, there could be many user-defined
non-contiguous regions that cannot be merged.
The threshold based loop break condition is evaluated by comparing the
threshold for the next merging try against the theoretical maximum
threshold. If max_thres is larger than UINT_MAX / 2, doubling the
threshold could make it overflow, and bypass the loop break condition. In
the case, if the number of regions cannot be reduced under the upper limit
like explained above, the loop will run infinitely.
Prevent the case by doing the break condition check before doubling the
threshold. Also, prevent the threshold exceeding the maximum threshold,
as it could overflow and apply the wrong merge threshold.
This issue is unlikely to occur in real world, since having the max_thres
higher than UINT_MAX / 2 require unrealistically large aggregation
intervals compared to the sampling interval. Also, it requires an
unrealistically large number of uncontiguous regions setup. Nonetheless,
the consequence is bad and the fix is simple.
The issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdkfd: guard against NULL restore_mqd in CRIU queue restore
Both create_queue_cpsch() and create_queue_nocpsch() unconditionally
call mqd_mgr->restore_mqd() when a CRIU restore is in progress
(qd != NULL), with no NULL guard. On any system where restore_mqd is
not implemented for the given queue type, a user holding
CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE can trigger a kernel NULL pointer dereference
and panic the machine by issuing KFD_IOC_CRIU_OP_RESTORE with a
crafted queue restore object. Note that checkpoint_mqd is likewise
unimplemented on GFX12, so no legitimate CRIU image can reach this
path — only a hand-crafted restore payload.
Add a NULL guard for restore_mqd immediately after mqd_mgr is
resolved, unwinding via the existing error labels and returning
-EOPNOTSUPP if the callback is not implemented. This mirrors the
existing checkpoint_mqd guard in checkpoint_mqd(). |

drm/i915: Guard against NULL driver_data in i915_pci_probe()
pci_match_device() can return the dummy pci_device_id_any entry
when a device is force-bound via sysfs driver_override, in which
case ->driver_data is unset (NULL). i915_pci_probe() casts it to
struct intel_device_info * unconditionally and dereferences
intel_info->require_force_probe, causing a NULL-ptr-deref.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
scsi: qla2xxx: edif: Fix NULL pointer deref in RX SA delete check
qla_chk_edif_rx_sa_delete_pending() obtains the SCSI command via
GET_CMD_SP(sp) and immediately dereferences cmd->sc_data_direction.
That command pointer can be NULL: the firmware may post a status
completion for a command that has already been returned or aborted. The
caller qla2x00_status_entry() acknowledges this on the very same status
path, re-fetching GET_CMD_SP(sp) and bailing out with the "Command
already returned" message when it is NULL -- but that check runs only
after qla_chk_edif_rx_sa_delete_pending() has already dereferenced the
pointer, so a NULL cmd crashes the kernel in interrupt context.
Return early when cmd is NULL, before touching cmd->sc_data_direction. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: Fix DMA mapping ownership on partial map failure
If RX mapping fails after TX mapping succeeds, __spi_map_msg() unmaps
TX but leaves tx_sg_mapped set. If TX mapping fails on a later
transfer, mappings created for earlier transfers remain active.
In both cases, cur_{tx,rx}_dma_dev have not yet been updated because they
are assigned only after every transfer has been mapped. The subsequent
spi_unmap_msg() may therefore unmap the TX mapping again or release
earlier mappings using a NULL or stale device. Using a NULL device can
trigger an oops. An empty SG table does not prevent the NULL dereference
because dma_unmap_sg_attrs() accesses the device before checking the
entry count.
Publish both mapping devices before mapping starts and unwind all
failures through __spi_unmap_msg(). This clears the mapping flags and
releases each mapping once with the device that created it.
Publishing the devices before the loop also refreshes them when no
transfer needs mapping. No mapping flag is set in that case, so current
users do not use the pointers as mapping owners. |

mm/hugetlb_cma: fix null nodemask dereference in hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio
alloc_buddy_hugetlb_folio_with_mpol() can pass a NULL nodemask to
alloc_fresh_hugetlb_folio() as a fallback to allocate from all nodes. If
order is gigantic, alloc_fresh_hugetlb_folio() propagates the NULL
nodemask down to hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() via
alloc_gigantic_frozen_folio().
Additionally, hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() previously attempted
allocation on hugetlb_cma[nid] without verifying if nid is included in the
caller's nodemask. Adding a node_isset(nid, *nodemask) check ensures the
initial preferred node allocation honors the memory policy / nodemask.
However, hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() dereferences the nodemask in
node_isset(nid, *nodemask) and for_each_node_mask(node, *nodemask),
leading to a null pointer dereference kernel panic when nodemask is NULL.
Fix this by checking if nodemask is NULL in
hugetlb_cma_alloc_frozen_folio() and defaulting it to
cpuset_current_mems_allowed. Enclose the allocation attempts within the
cpuset seqcount retry loop so that if the cpuset changes concurrently
during allocation, the attempts are retried using the updated nodemask.
This ensures that the initial node check and fallback loop safely honor
the task's cpuset without violating cpuset constraints or causing NULL
pointer dereferences or unexpected allocation failures.
From a userspace perspective, this bug allows an unprivileged user to
crash the kernel (trigger a panic) by requesting a gigantic hugepage
allocation with MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY on a system where CMA is only
configured on a subset of NUMA nodes.
This can be reproduced by booting a VM with two NUMA nodes, restricting
CMA to Node 1 (e.g., hugetlb_cma=1:1G default_hugepagesz=1G hugepagesz=1G
hugepages=0), and running a program that allocates a 1GB hugepage area
without reserving, restricts allocation to Node 0 using mbind() with
MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY, and triggers a page fault:
void *ptr = mmap(NULL, 1UL << 30, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE,
MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_HUGETLB |
MAP_HUGE_1GB | MAP_NORESERVE, -1, 0);
unsigned long nodemask = 1; /* Node 0 */
mbind(ptr, 1UL << 30, MPOL_PREFERRED_MANY, &nodemask,
sizeof(nodemask) * 8, 0);
memset(ptr, 0, 1UL << 30); /* Trigger fault */
This results in a NULL pointer dereference:

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. |

dmaengine: dw-edma: Initialize IRQ data before requesting IRQs
dw_edma_irq_request() passes struct dw_edma_irq to request_irq() before
dw_edma_channel_setup() fills the back pointer. A shared interrupt can
therefore enter the handler with dw_irq->dw still NULL, leading to a
NULL pointer dereference.
Set the back pointer before installing each handler. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: gadget: fix NULL pointer dereference in gadget_dev_ioctl()
gadget_dev_ioctl() reads dev->gadget before acquiring dev->lock, but
dev->state is checked after acquiring the lock. Therefore a concurrent
bind can change the device state between these operations, which can
leave ioctl with a stale NULL gadget pointer and causing a NULL pointer
dereference at gadget->ops->ioctl.
Read dev->gadget while holding dev->lock so that the gadget pointer
and device state are sampled consistently. |
