| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: SDCA: fix NULL pointer dereference in sdca_dev_unregister_functions
sdca_dev_unregister_functions() iterates over all SDCA function
descriptors and calls sdca_dev_unregister() on each func_dev without
checking for NULL. When a function registration has failed partway
through, or the device cleanup races with probe deferral, func_dev
entries may be NULL, leading to a kernel oops:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000040

This was observed on a Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon G14 (Panther Lake)
with the SOF audio driver probe failing due to missing Panther Lake
firmware, causing the subsequent cleanup of SoundWire devices to
trigger the crash.
Fix this with three changes:
1) Add a NULL guard in sdca_dev_unregister() so that callers do not
need to pre-validate the pointer (defense in depth).
2) In sdca_dev_unregister_functions(), skip NULL func_dev entries
and clear func_dev to NULL after unregistration, making the
function idempotent and safe against double-invocation.
3) In sdca_dev_register_functions(), roll back all previously
registered functions when a later one fails, so the function
array is never left in a partially-populated state. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/virtio: Fix driver removal with disabled KMS
DRM atomic and modesetting aren't initialized if virtio-gpu driver built
with disabled KMS, leading to access of uninitialized data on driver
removal/unbinding and crashing kernel. Fix it by skipping shutting down
atomic core with unavailable KMS. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: Don't WARN if memory is dirtied without a vCPU when the VM is dying
When marking a page dirty, complain about not having a running/loaded vCPU
if and only if the VM is still alive, i.e. its refcount is non-zero. This
will allow fixing a memory leak for x86 SEV-ES guests without hitting what
is effectively a false positive on the WARN.
For some SEV-ES VM-Exits, KVM keeps a writable mapping of a guest page
across an exit to userspace, and typically unmaps the page on the next
KVM_RUN. But if userspace never calls KVM_RUN after such an exit, then KVM
needs to unmap the page when the vCPU is destroyed, which in turn triggers
the WARN about not having a running vCPU.
Alternatively, SEV-ES could temporarily load the vCPU to suppress the WARN,
as is done in nested_vmx_free_vcpu() (but for completely unrelated reasons;
suppressing WARN from nested_put_vmcs12_pages() is pure happenstance). But
loading a vCPU during destruction is gross (ideally nVMX code would be
cleaned up), risks complicating the SEV-ES code (KVM would need to ensure
the temporarily load()+put() only runs when the vCPU isn't already loaded),
and is ultimately pointless.
The motivation for the WARN is to guard against KVM dirtying guest memory
without pushing the corresponding GFN to the active vCPU's dirty ring, e.g.
to ensure userspace doesn't miss a dirty page. But for the VM's refcount
to reach zero, there can't be _any_ userspace mappings to the dirty ring,
as mapping the dirty ring requires doing mmap() on the vCPU FD. I.e. if
userspace had a valid mapping for the dirty ring, then the vCPU file and
thus the owning VM would still be alive. And so since userspace can't
possibly reach the dirty ring, whether or not KVM technically "misses" a
push to the dirty ring is irrelevant. |

net: bonding: fix NULL pointer dereference in bond_do_ioctl()
In bond_do_ioctl(), slave_dev is obtained via __dev_get_by_name() which
can return NULL if the requested interface name does not exist. However,
the subsequent slave_dbg() call is placed before the NULL check:
slave_dev = __dev_get_by_name(net, ifr->ifr_slave);
slave_dbg(bond_dev, slave_dev, "slave_dev=%p:\n", slave_dev); //here
if (!slave_dev)
return -ENODEV;
The slave_dbg() macro expands to netdev_dbg(bond_dev, "(slave %s): " fmt,
(slave_dev)->name, ...) which unconditionally dereferences slave_dev->name
before the NULL check is performed. This results in a NULL pointer
dereference kernel oops when a user calls bonding ioctl (e.g.
SIOCBONDENSLAVE, SIOCBONDRELEASE, etc.) with a non-existent slave
interface name.
This is reachable from userspace via the bonding ioctl interface with
CAP_NET_ADMIN capability, making it a potential local denial-of-service
vector.
Fix by moving the slave_dbg() call after the NULL check. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
debugobjects: Do not fill_pool() if pi_blocked_on
On RT enabled kernels, fill_pool() ends up calling rtlock_lock(), which
asserts if current::pi_blocked_on is set, because a task can obviously only
block on one lock as otherwise the priority inheritenace chain gets
corrupted.
Prevent this by expanding the conditional to take current::pi_blocked_on
into account. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
agp/amd64: Fix broken error propagation in agp_amd64_probe()
A NULL pointer dereference was observed in the AMD64 AGP driver when
running in a virtualized environment (e.g. qemu/kvm) without a physical
AMD northbridge. The crash occurs in amd64_fetch_size() when attempting
to dereference the pointer returned by node_to_amd_nb(0).
The root cause of this crash is broken error propagation in
agp_amd64_probe(): When no AMD northbridges are found, cache_nbs()
correctly returns -ENODEV. However, the probe function erroneously
checks the return value against exactly -1, rather than < 0.
As a result, the hardware absence error is masked, allowing the driver
to improperly proceed with initialization. It eventually calls
agp_add_bridge(), which invokes amd64_fetch_size(). Since the hardware
does not exist, node_to_amd_nb(0) returns NULL, leading to a General
Protection Fault (GPF) when accessing its ->misc member.
Fix the issue by correcting the error check in agp_amd64_probe() to
abort properly when cache_nbs() returns any negative error code. This
prevents the driver from erroneously proceeding without hardware, thereby
avoiding the subsequent NULL pointer dereference at its source. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mana: Use pci_name() for debugfs directory naming
Use pci_name(pdev) for the per-device debugfs directory instead of
hardcoded "0" for PFs and pci_slot_name(pdev->slot) for VFs. The
previous approach had two issues:
1. pci_slot_name() dereferences pdev->slot, which can be NULL for VFs
in environments like generic VFIO passthrough or nested KVM,
causing a NULL pointer dereference.
2. Multiple PFs would all use "0", and VFs across different PCI
domains or buses could share the same slot name, leading to
-EEXIST errors from debugfs_create_dir().
pci_name(pdev) returns the unique BDF address, is always valid, and is
unique across the system. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/napi: cap busy_poll_to 10 msec
Currently there's no cap on the maximum amount of time that napi is
allowed to poll if no events are found, which can lead to kernel
complaints on a task being stuck as there's no conditional rescheduling
done within that loop.
Just cap it to 10 msec in total, that's already way above any kind of
sane value that will reap any benefits, yet low enough that it's
nowhere near being able to trigger preemption complaints. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7925: prevent NULL pointer dereference in mt7925_tx_check_aggr()
Move the NULL check for 'sta' before dereferencing it to prevent a
possible crash. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7921: Place upper limit on station AID
Any station configured with an AID over 20 causes a firmware crash.
This situation occurred in our testing using an AP interface on 7922
hardware, with a modified hostapd, sourced from Mediatek's OpenWRT
feeds.
In stock hostapd, station AIDs begin counting at 1, and this
configuration is prevented with an upper limit on associated stations.
However, the modified hostapd began allocation at 65, which caused the
firmware to crash. This fix does not allow these AIDs to work, but will
prevent the firmware crash.
This crash was only seen on IFTYPE_AP interfaces, and the fix does not
appear to have an effect on IFTYPE_STATION behavior. |

drm/amd/ras: Fix NULL deref in ras_core_ras_interrupt_detected()
Fixes a NULL pointer dereference when ras_core is NULL and ras_core->dev
is accessed in the error path.
Reported by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@linaro.org> |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/ras: Fix NULL deref in ras_core_get_utc_second_timestamp()
ras_core_get_utc_second_timestamp() retrieves the current UTC timestamp
(in seconds since the Unix epoch) through a platform-specific RAS system
callback and is used for timestamping RAS error events.
The function checks ras_core in the conditional statement before calling
the sys_fn callback. However, when the condition fails, the function
prints an error message using ras_core->dev.
If ras_core is NULL, this can lead to a potential NULL pointer
dereference when accessing ras_core->dev.
Add an early NULL check for ras_core at the beginning of the function
and return 0 when the pointer is not valid. This prevents the
dereference and makes the control flow clearer. |

padata: Put CPU offline callback in ONLINE section to allow failure
syzbot reported the following warning:
DEAD callback error for CPU1
WARNING: kernel/cpu.c:1463 at _cpu_down+0x759/0x1020 kernel/cpu.c:1463, CPU#0: syz.0.1960/14614
at commit 4ae12d8bd9a8 ("Merge tag 'kbuild-fixes-7.0-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kbuild/linux")
which tglx traced to padata_cpu_dead() given it's the only
sub-CPUHP_TEARDOWN_CPU callback that returns an error.
Failure isn't allowed in hotplug states before CPUHP_TEARDOWN_CPU
so move the CPU offline callback to the ONLINE section where failure is
possible. |

drm/amd/display: Avoid NULL dereference in dc_dmub_srv error paths
In dc_dmub_srv_log_diagnostic_data() and
dc_dmub_srv_enable_dpia_trace().
Both functions check:
if (!dc_dmub_srv || !dc_dmub_srv->dmub)
and then call DC_LOG_ERROR() inside that block.
DC_LOG_ERROR() uses dc_dmub_srv->ctx internally. So if
dc_dmub_srv is NULL, the logging itself can dereference a
NULL pointer and cause a crash.
Fix this by splitting the checks.
First check if dc_dmub_srv is NULL and return immediately.
Then check dc_dmub_srv->dmub and log the error only when
dc_dmub_srv is valid.
Fixes the below:
../display/dc/dc_dmub_srv.c:962 dc_dmub_srv_log_diagnostic_data() error: we previously assumed 'dc_dmub_srv' could be null (see line 961)
../display/dc/dc_dmub_srv.c:1167 dc_dmub_srv_enable_dpia_trace() error: we previously assumed 'dc_dmub_srv' could be null (see line 1166) |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tty: hvc_iucv: fix off-by-one in number of supported devices
MAX_HVC_IUCV_LINES == HVC_ALLOC_TTY_ADAPTERS == 8.
This is the number of entries in:
static struct hvc_iucv_private *hvc_iucv_table[MAX_HVC_IUCV_LINES];
Sometimes hvc_iucv_table[] is limited by:
(a) if (num > hvc_iucv_devices) // for error detection
or
(b) for (i = 0; i < hvc_iucv_devices; i++) // in 2 places
(so these 2 don't agree; second one appears to be correct to me.)
hvc_iucv_devices can be 0..8. This is a counter.
(c) if (hvc_iucv_devices > MAX_HVC_IUCV_LINES)
If hvc_iucv_devices == 8, (a) allows the code to access hvc_iucv_table[8].
Oops. |

scsi: sg: Resolve soft lockup issue when opening /dev/sgX
The parameter def_reserved_size defines the default buffer size reserved
for each Sg_fd and should be restricted to a range between 0 and 1,048,576
(see https://tldp.org/HOWTO/SCSI-Generic-HOWTO/proc.html). Although the
function sg_proc_write_dressz enforces this limit, it is possible to bypass
it by directly modifying the module parameter as shown below, which then
causes a soft lockup:
echo -1 > /sys/module/sg/parameters/def_reserved_size
exec 4<> /dev/sg0

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mana: Guard mana_remove against double invocation
If PM resume fails (e.g., mana_attach() returns an error), mana_probe()
calls mana_remove(), which tears down the device and sets
gd->gdma_context = NULL and gd->driver_data = NULL.
However, a failed resume callback does not automatically unbind the
driver. When the device is eventually unbound, mana_remove() is invoked
a second time. Without a NULL check, it dereferences gc->dev with
gc == NULL, causing a kernel panic.
Add an early return if gdma_context or driver_data is NULL so the second
invocation is harmless. Move the dev = gc->dev assignment after the
guard so it cannot dereference NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mailbox: mailbox-test: free channels on probe error
On probe error, free the previously obtained channels. This not only
prevents a leak, but also UAF scenarios because the client structure
will be removed nonetheless because it was allocated with devm. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mailbox: add sanity check for channel array
Fail gracefully if there is no channel array attached to the mailbox
controller. Otherwise the later dereference will cause an OOPS which
might not be seen because mailbox controllers might instantiate very
early. Remove the comment explaining the obvious while here. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mailbox: mailbox-test: don't free the reused channel
The RX channel can be aliased to the TX channel if it has a different
MMIO. This special case needs to be handled when freeing the channels
otherwise a double-free occurs. |
