CVE-2024-53188 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath12k: fix crash when unbinding If there is an error during some initialization related to firmware, the function ath12k_dp_cc_cleanup is called to release resources. However this is released again when the device is unbinded (ath12k_pci), and we get: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000020 at RIP: 0010:ath12k_dp_cc_cleanup.part.0+0xb6/0x500 [ath12k] Call Trace: ath12k_dp_cc_cleanup ath12k_dp_free ath12k_core_deinit ath12k_pci_remove ... The issue is always reproducible from a VM because the MSI addressing initialization is failing. In order to fix the issue, just set to NULL the released structure in ath12k_dp_cc_cleanup at the end.
CVE-2024-48873 2 Linux, Redhat 2 Linux Kernel, Enterprise Linux 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: rtw89: check return value of ieee80211_probereq_get() for RNR The return value of ieee80211_probereq_get() might be NULL, so check it before using to avoid NULL pointer access. Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1529805 ("Dereference null return value")
CVE-2024-47809 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: dlm: fix possible lkb_resource null dereference This patch fixes a possible null pointer dereference when this function is called from request_lock() as lkb->lkb_resource is not assigned yet, only after validate_lock_args() by calling attach_lkb(). Another issue is that a resource name could be a non printable bytearray and we cannot assume to be ASCII coded. The log functionality is probably never being hit when DLM is used in normal way and no debug logging is enabled. The null pointer dereference can only occur on a new created lkb that does not have the resource assigned yet, it probably never hits the null pointer dereference but we should be sure that other changes might not change this behaviour and we actually can hit the mentioned null pointer dereference. In this patch we just drop the printout of the resource name, the lkb id is enough to make a possible connection to a resource name if this exists.
CVE-2023-52938 2 Linux, Redhat 2 Linux Kernel, Enterprise Linux 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: ucsi: Don't attempt to resume the ports before they exist This will fix null pointer dereference that was caused by the driver attempting to resume ports that were not yet registered.
CVE-2022-49733 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2025-10-01 4.7 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: pcm: oss: Fix race at SNDCTL_DSP_SYNC There is a small race window at snd_pcm_oss_sync() that is called from OSS PCM SNDCTL_DSP_SYNC ioctl; namely the function calls snd_pcm_oss_make_ready() at first, then takes the params_lock mutex for the rest. When the stream is set up again by another thread between them, it leads to inconsistency, and may result in unexpected results such as NULL dereference of OSS buffer as a fuzzer spotted recently. The fix is simply to cover snd_pcm_oss_make_ready() call into the same params_lock mutex with snd_pcm_oss_make_ready_locked() variant.
CVE-2022-49731 2 Linux, Redhat 2 Linux Kernel, Enterprise Linux 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ata: libata-core: fix NULL pointer deref in ata_host_alloc_pinfo() In an unlikely (and probably wrong?) case that the 'ppi' parameter of ata_host_alloc_pinfo() points to an array starting with a NULL pointer, there's going to be a kernel oops as the 'pi' local variable won't get reassigned from the initial value of NULL. Initialize 'pi' instead to '&ata_dummy_port_info' to fix the possible kernel oops for good... Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with the SVACE static analysis tool.
CVE-2022-49707 2 Linux, Redhat 2 Linux Kernel, Enterprise Linux 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ext4: add reserved GDT blocks check We capture a NULL pointer issue when resizing a corrupt ext4 image which is freshly clear resize_inode feature (not run e2fsck). It could be simply reproduced by following steps. The problem is because of the resize_inode feature was cleared, and it will convert the filesystem to meta_bg mode in ext4_resize_fs(), but the es->s_reserved_gdt_blocks was not reduced to zero, so could we mistakenly call reserve_backup_gdb() and passing an uninitialized resize_inode to it when adding new group descriptors. mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda 3G tune2fs -O ^resize_inode /dev/sda #forget to run requested e2fsck mount /dev/sda /mnt resize2fs /dev/sda 8G ======== BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000028 CPU: 19 PID: 3243 Comm: resize2fs Not tainted 5.18.0-rc7-00001-gfde086c5ebfd #748 ...

CVE-2022-49703 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ibmvfc: Store vhost pointer during subcrq allocation Currently the back pointer from a queue to the vhost adapter isn't set until after subcrq interrupt registration. The value is available when a queue is first allocated and can/should be also set for primary and async queues as well as subcrqs. This fixes a crash observed during kexec/kdump on Power 9 with legacy XICS interrupt controller where a pending subcrq interrupt from the previous kernel can be replayed immediately upon IRQ registration resulting in dereference of a garbage backpointer in ibmvfc_interrupt_scsi(). Kernel attempted to read user page (58) - exploit attempt?

CVE-2022-49664 2 Linux, Redhat 2 Linux Kernel, Enterprise Linux 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tipc: move bc link creation back to tipc_node_create Shuang Li reported a NULL pointer dereference crash: [] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000068 [] RIP: 0010:tipc_link_is_up+0x5/0x10 [tipc] [] Call Trace: [] <IRQ> [] tipc_bcast_rcv+0xa2/0x190 [tipc] [] tipc_node_bc_rcv+0x8b/0x200 [tipc] [] tipc_rcv+0x3af/0x5b0 [tipc] [] tipc_udp_recv+0xc7/0x1e0 [tipc] It was caused by the 'l' passed into tipc_bcast_rcv() is NULL. When it creates a node in tipc_node_check_dest(), after inserting the new node into hashtable in tipc_node_create(), it creates the bc link. However, there is a gap between this insert and bc link creation, a bc packet may come in and get the node from the hashtable then try to dereference its bc link, which is NULL. This patch is to fix it by moving the bc link creation before inserting into the hashtable. Note that for a preliminary node becoming "real", the bc link creation should also be called before it's rehashed, as we don't create it for preliminary nodes.
CVE-2022-49649 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xen/netback: avoid entering xenvif_rx_next_skb() with an empty rx queue xenvif_rx_next_skb() is expecting the rx queue not being empty, but in case the loop in xenvif_rx_action() is doing multiple iterations, the availability of another skb in the rx queue is not being checked.

CVE-2022-49618 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pinctrl: aspeed: Fix potential NULL dereference in aspeed_pinmux_set_mux() pdesc could be null but still dereference pdesc->name and it will lead to a null pointer access. So we move a null check before dereference.
CVE-2022-49615 2 Linux, Redhat 2 Linux Kernel, Enterprise Linux 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: rt711-sdca: fix kernel NULL pointer dereference when IO error The initial settings will be written before the codec probe function. But, the rt711->component doesn't be assigned yet. If IO error happened during initial settings operations, it will cause the kernel panic. This patch changed component->dev to slave->dev to fix this issue.
CVE-2022-49608 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pinctrl: ralink: Check for null return of devm_kcalloc Because of the possible failure of the allocation, data->domains might be NULL pointer and will cause the dereference of the NULL pointer later. Therefore, it might be better to check it and directly return -ENOMEM without releasing data manually if fails, because the comment of the devm_kmalloc() says "Memory allocated with this function is automatically freed on driver detach.".
CVE-2022-49582 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: dsa: fix NULL pointer dereference in dsa_port_reset_vlan_filtering The "ds" iterator variable used in dsa_port_reset_vlan_filtering() -> dsa_switch_for_each_port() overwrites the "dp" received as argument, which is later used to call dsa_port_vlan_filtering() proper. As a result, switches which do enter that code path (the ones with vlan_filtering_is_global=true) will dereference an invalid dp in dsa_port_reset_vlan_filtering() after leaving a VLAN-aware bridge. Use a dedicated "other_dp" iterator variable to avoid this from happening.
CVE-2022-49569 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: spi: bcm2835: bcm2835_spi_handle_err(): fix NULL pointer deref for non DMA transfers In case a IRQ based transfer times out the bcm2835_spi_handle_err() function is called. Since commit 1513ceee70f2 ("spi: bcm2835: Drop dma_pending flag") the TX and RX DMA transfers are unconditionally canceled, leading to NULL pointer derefs if ctlr->dma_tx or ctlr->dma_rx are not set. Fix the NULL pointer deref by checking that ctlr->dma_tx and ctlr->dma_rx are valid pointers before accessing them.
CVE-2022-49568 1 Linux 1 Linux Kernel 2025-10-01 5.5 Medium
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KVM: Don't null dereference ops->destroy A KVM device cleanup happens in either of two callbacks: 1) destroy() which is called when the VM is being destroyed; 2) release() which is called when a device fd is closed. Most KVM devices use 1) but Book3s's interrupt controller KVM devices (XICS, XIVE, XIVE-native) use 2) as they need to close and reopen during the machine execution. The error handling in kvm_ioctl_create_device() assumes destroy() is always defined which leads to NULL dereference as discovered by Syzkaller. This adds a checks for destroy!=NULL and adds a missing release(). This is not changing kvm_destroy_devices() as devices with defined release() should have been removed from the KVM devices list by then.
