| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm: swap_cgroup: fix NULL deref in lookup_swap_cgroup_id on swapless host
lookup_swap_cgroup_id() passes swap_cgroup_ctrl[type].map to
__swap_cgroup_id_lookup() without checking that the type was ever
registered via swap_cgroup_swapon(). On a swapless host every ctrl->map
is NULL, so __swap_cgroup_id_lookup() dereferences NULL + a scaled
swp_offset().
Since commit bea67dcc5eea ("mm: attempt to batch free swap entries for
zap_pte_range()"), zap_pte_range() -> swap_pte_batch() calls
lookup_swap_cgroup_id() on any non-present, non-none PTE that decodes as a
real swap entry, without first validating it against swap_info[]. A
single PTE corrupted into a type-0 swap entry takes the host down at
process exit.
We hit this in production on a swapless 6.12.58 host: ~1s of
"get_swap_device: Bad swap file entry 3f800204222bb" (do_swap_page() being
correctly defensive about the same entry) followed by
BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 000003f800204220
RIP: 0010:lookup_swap_cgroup_id+0x2b/0x60
Call Trace:
swap_pte_batch+0xbf/0x230

do_exit+0x20c/0x4b0
syzbot has reported the identical stack.
The source of the PTE corruption is a separate bug; this change makes the
teardown path as robust as the fault path already is. Every other caller
of lookup_swap_cgroup_id() is downstream of a get_swap_device() that has
already validated the entry, so the new branch is cold. |
| SurrealDB before v2.6.1 (and before v3.0.0-beta.3) contains a denial of service vulnerability in its embedded JavaScript scripting engine, which is enabled via the --allow-scripting capability (disabled by default). Any user able to execute arbitrary queries — including unauthenticated guests when --allow-guests is enabled — can use built-in string functions to construct a large string and pass it to the JavaScript runtime for compilation, triggering a null pointer dereference in the underlying QuickJS-NG engine. This causes the server process to terminate immediately without graceful shutdown, requiring a manual restart. The issue was fixed by updating the rquickjs dependency from v0.9.0 to v0.11.0. |
| libheif is a HEIF and AVIF file format decoder and encoder. Versions prior to 1.22.0 crashes in the public C API `heif_image_handle_get_image_tiling()` when a malformed uncompressed HEIF image item has an associated `uncC` property but no associated `ispe` property. In debug builds this trips the `ispe && uncC` assertion in `ImageItem_uncompressed::get_heif_image_tiling()`. In a release/NDEBUG ASan build, the same file causes a null pointer read at address `0xa8`. Version 1.22.0 fixes the issue. |
| In NLnet Labs Unbound 1.10.0 up to and including 1.25.1, when 'serve-expired: yes' is set together with a 'response-ip: <net> redirect' /'response-ip-data: <net> CNAME <target>' rule (or the RPZ 'rpz-cname-override' equivalent), a remote client who controls any delegated domain can crash the daemon. The serve-expired-client-timeout callback runs a two-pass loop to chase the respip-generated CNAME alias; on the second pass it resets 'alias_rrset' but not 'partial_rep'. Later, this inconsistency leads to a NULL pointer dereference and an eventual crash. A malicious actor can exploit the vulnerability by controlling any zone that replies with an A/AAAA record that falls inside the configured response-ip/rpz subnet. By delaying the answer when the previous record has expired, the vulnerable path of 'serve-expired-client-timeout' is taken leading to denial of service via the server crash. |
| A vulnerability was detected in ggml-org llama.cpp d006858/e15efe0. This affects the function _visit_pattern of the file common/json-schema-to-grammar.cpp. The manipulation results in null pointer dereference. The attack can be launched remotely. The pull request to fix this issue awaits acceptance. |
| Invalid pointer in the Security: PSM component. This vulnerability was fixed in Firefox 153 and Thunderbird 153. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
KVM: arm64: nv: Avoid dereferencing NULL VNCR pseudo-TLB
VNCR TLB invalidation occurs from MMU notifiers or TLBI instructions,
and either can race against a vcpu not being onlined yet (no pseudo-TLB
allocated). Similarly, the TLB might be invalid, and the invalidation
should be skipped in this case.
Both kvm_invalidate_vncr_ipa() and kvm_invalidate_vncr_va() are
expected to perform the same checks, except that the latter doesn't
check for the allocation and blindly dereferences the pointer.
Solve this by introducing a new iterator built on top of the usual
kvm_for_each_vcpu() that checks for both of the above conditions,
and convert the two users to it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
module: decompress: check return value of module_extend_max_pages()
module_extend_max_pages() calls kvrealloc() internally and returns
-ENOMEM on allocation failure. The return value is never checked.
If the initial allocation fails, info->pages remains NULL and
info->max_pages remains 0. Subsequent calls to module_get_next_page()
will attempt to dynamically grow the array by calling
module_extend_max_pages(info, 0) since info->used_pages is 0. This
results in kvrealloc(NULL, 0) returning ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which is treated
as a success, leading to a dereference of ZERO_SIZE_PTR and a kernel
oops.
Fix: add the missing error check after module_extend_max_pages() and
return immediately on failure. This matches the pattern used by every
other kvrealloc() caller in the module loading path.

ALSA: gus: check snd_ctl_new1() return value
snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails.
snd_gf1_pcm_volume_control() does not check the return value before
dereferencing kctl->id.index, which can lead to a NULL pointer
dereference.
Add a NULL check after snd_ctl_new1() and return -ENOMEM if it fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kernel/fork: clear PF_BLOCK_TS in copy_process()
PF_BLOCK_TS is only set in blk_time_get_ns() when current->plug is
non-NULL, and blk_finish_plug() clears it via __blk_flush_plug()
before NULLing the plug pointer. copy_process() breaks the
invariant by inheriting PF_BLOCK_TS from the parent while resetting
the child's plug to NULL.
Clear PF_BLOCK_TS alongside that assignment so callers can rely on
"PF_BLOCK_TS set implies current->plug != NULL" and dereference
current->plug unguarded. |

wifi: mt76: mt7921/mt7925: fix NULL dereference in CSA beacon
This patch is based on a BUG as reported by Bongani Hlope at
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260502125824.425d7159@bongani-mini.home.org.za/
When a channel-switch announcement (CSA) beacon is received,
cfg80211 queues a wiphy work item that eventually calls
mt7921_channel_switch_rx_beacon(). If the station disconnects
(or the channel context is otherwise torn down) between the
time the work is queued and the time it runs, the driver's
dev->new_ctx pointer can already have been cleared to NULL.
mt7921_channel_switch_rx_beacon() then dereferences new_ctx
unconditionally, triggering a NULL pointer dereference at
address 0x0:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
RIP: 0010:mt7921_channel_switch_rx_beacon+0x1f/0x100 [mt7921_common]
The same missing guard exists in mt7925_channel_switch_rx_beacon(),
which shares the same code pattern introduced by the same commit.
Add an early-return NULL check for dev->new_ctx in both
mt7921_channel_switch_rx_beacon() and
mt7925_channel_switch_rx_beacon(). When new_ctx is NULL there is
no pending channel switch to process, so returning immediately is
the correct and safe action.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: ice1712: check snd_ctl_new1() return value
snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails. The
ice1712 driver calls snd_ctl_new1() without checking the return value
before dereferencing the pointer in multiple places (ice1712.c,
ice1724.c, aureon.c), which can lead to NULL pointer dereferences.
Add NULL checks after snd_ctl_new1() calls and return -ENOMEM if any
fails. |

ALSA: es1938: check snd_ctl_new1() return value
snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails.
snd_es1938_mixer() does not check the return value before dereferencing
the pointer, which can lead to a NULL pointer dereference.
Add a NULL check after snd_ctl_new1() and return -ENOMEM if it fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: ymfpci: check snd_ctl_new1() return value
snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails.
snd_ymfpci_create_spdif_controls() does not check the return value
before dereferencing kctl->id.device, which can lead to a NULL pointer
dereference.
Add NULL checks after snd_ctl_new1() calls and return -ENOMEM if any
fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: NFIT: core: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference
After commit 9b311b7313d6 ("ACPI: NFIT: Install Notify() handler before
getting NFIT table"), acpi_nfit_probe() installs an ACPI notify handler
for the NFIT device before checking the presence of the NFIT table. If
that table is not there, 0 is returned without allocating the acpi_desc
object and setting the driver data pointer of the NFIT device. If the
platform firmware triggers an NFIT_NOTIFY_UC_MEMORY_ERROR notification
on the NFIT device at that point, acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() will
dereference a NULL pointer.
Prevent that from occurring by adding an acpi_desc check against NULL
to acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify(). |

ALSA: cmipci: check snd_ctl_new1() return value
snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails.
snd_cmipci_spdif_controls() does not check the return value before
dereferencing kctl->id.device, which can lead to a NULL pointer
dereference.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mana: Add NULL guards in teardown path to prevent panic on attach failure
When queue allocation fails partway through, the error cleanup frees
and NULLs apc->tx_qp and apc->rxqs. Multiple teardown paths such as
mana_remove(), mana_change_mtu() recovery, and internal error handling
in mana_alloc_queues() can subsequently call into functions that
dereference these pointers without NULL checks:
- mana_chn_setxdp() dereferences apc->rxqs[0], causing a NULL pointer
dereference panic (CR2: 0000000000000000 at mana_chn_setxdp+0x26).
- mana_destroy_vport() iterates apc->rxqs without a NULL check.
- mana_fence_rqs() iterates apc->rxqs without a NULL check.
- mana_dealloc_queues() iterates apc->tx_qp without a NULL check.
Add NULL guards for apc->rxqs in mana_fence_rqs(),
mana_destroy_vport(), and before the mana_chn_setxdp() call. Add a
NULL guard for apc->tx_qp in mana_dealloc_queues() to skip TX queue
draining when TX queues were never allocated or already freed. |
| NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Apache NimBLE in LE Long Term Key Request event.
This requires disabled asserts (otherwise assert would trigger before NULL dereference) and bogus (or misbehaving) controller, thus severity is low.
This issue affects Apache NimBLE: through 1.9.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 1.10.0, which fixes the issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: release layout stid on setlease failure
nfs4_alloc_stid() publishes the new stid into cl->cl_stateids via
idr_alloc_cyclic() under cl_lock before returning to
nfsd4_alloc_layout_stateid(). When nfsd4_layout_setlease() then
fails, the error path frees the layout stateid directly with
kmem_cache_free() without ever calling idr_remove(), leaving the
IDR slot pointing at freed slab memory. Any subsequent IDR walker
(states_show, client teardown) dereferences the dangling pointer.
The correct teardown for an IDR-published stid is nfs4_put_stid(),
which removes the IDR slot under cl_lock, dispatches sc_free
(nfsd4_free_layout_stateid) to release ls->ls_file via
nfsd4_close_layout(), and drops the nfs4_file reference in its
tail.
A second issue blocks that switch: nfsd4_free_layout_stateid()
unconditionally inspects ls->ls_fence_work via
delayed_work_pending() under ls_lock, but
INIT_DELAYED_WORK(&ls->ls_fence_work, ...) currently runs only
after the setlease call. On the setlease-failure path the
destructor would touch an uninitialized delayed_work.
nfsd4_alloc_layout_stateid()
nfs4_alloc_stid() /* idr_alloc_cyclic under cl_lock */
nfsd4_layout_setlease() /* fails */
nfs4_put_stid()
nfsd4_free_layout_stateid()
delayed_work_pending(&ls->ls_fence_work) /* needs INIT */
nfsd4_close_layout() /* nfsd_file_put(ls->ls_file) */
put_nfs4_file()
Fix by hoisting the ls_fenced / ls_fence_delay / INIT_DELAYED_WORK
initialization above the nfsd4_layout_setlease() call, and replace
the manual nfsd_file_put + put_nfs4_file + kmem_cache_free cleanup
with a single nfs4_put_stid(stp). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4/flexfiles: reject zero filehandle version count
ff_layout_alloc_lseg() decodes the filehandle-version array count
from the flexfiles layout body. The value is used as the count for
kzalloc_objs(), and the current code only rejects NULL.
A zero count yields ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which can be stored in
dss_info->fh_versions even though later flexfiles paths assume that at
least one filehandle version exists.
Reject fh_count == 0 before the allocation, matching the existing zero
version_count validation in the flexfiles GETDEVICEINFO parser.
A QEMU/KASAN run with a malformed flexfiles layout hit:
KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000010-0x0000000000000017]
RIP: 0010:ff_layout_encode_ff_layoutupdate.isra.0+0x15f/0x750
ff_layout_encode_layoutreturn+0x683/0x970
nfs4_xdr_enc_layoutreturn+0x278/0x3a0
Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
The patched kernel rejects the malformed layout without KASAN/oops/panic,
and a valid fh_count=1 regression still opens, reads, and unmounts cleanly. |
