NULL Pointer Dereference

A vulnerability was found in GNU LibreDWG up to 0.13.4. The impacted element is the function dwg_next_entity of the file src/dwg.c of the component DWG File Handler. Performing a manipulation of the argument next_obj results in null pointer dereference. The attack must be initiated from a local position. The exploit has been made public and could be used. Upgrading to version 0.14 is sufficient to resolve this issue. The patch is named dde45dac3c4d902e4d8fed150a8017b9732019c9. Upgrading the affected component is recommended. Different than CVE-2026-9503.Show less

GNU patch is vulnerable to a NULL pointer dereference when processing a specially crafted unified-diff patch file. Improper handling of consecutive end-of-file newline markers can corrupt internal hunk (single block of changes in diff) data structures, causing the application to pass a NULL pointer to fwrite() during patch processing. An attacker can trigger this condition with a malicious patch file, causing the utility to crash and resulting in a denial of service. This issue has been fixed in the commit e6d6a4e021660679d7fc9150f981d4920f722313Show less

NATS Server is a high-performance server for NATS.io, the cloud and edge native messaging system. Prior to 2.12.8 and 2.11.17, an unauthenticated peer with network access to a leafnode listener with compression enabled could crash the server during the pre-authentication leafnode handshake by sending repeated leafnode INFO protocol messages before authentication and account setup completed. This issue is fixed in versions 2.12.8 and 2.11.17.Show less

Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX) is an open standard for machine learning interoperability. From 1.9.0 before 1.22.0, onnx.version_converter.convert_version() can dereference a null pointer in Upsample_6_7::adapt_upsample_6_7() in onnx/version_converter/adapters/upsample_6_7.h when processing an untrusted model with an Upsample node that has zero inputs, causing an unrecoverable denial of service. This issue is fixed in version 1.22.0.Show less

A NULL pointer dereference in the SQLite Session Extension in SQLite 3.53.1 and SQLite trunk builds before check-in e807d4e3798efd53 allows an attacker who can supply a malformed changeset blob to cause a denial of service. The issue occurs when sqlite3changeset_apply_v3() applies a corrupt changeset and reaches sqlite3_value_type() with a NULL sqlite3_value pointer.Show less

The Dhara flash translation layer disk driver (drivers/disk/ftl_dhara.c) implemented the dhara_nand_ callbacks so that, on a flash error, the error code was written unconditionally through the caller-supplied dhara_error_t err pointer (e.g. *err = DHARA_E_ECC in dhara_nand_read, and similar in dhara_nand_erase/prog/copy). The upstream Dhara library calls these callbacks with err == NULL along its journal-resume binary search: find_last_checkblock() invokes find_checkblock(j, mid, &found, NULL), which forwards the NULL pointer into dhara_nand_read(). This path runs during disk_ftl_access_init() -> dhara_map_resume() whenever the FTL disk is mounted/initialised. If a flash read error (uncorrectable ECC, bad block, controller error) occurs on one of the probed checkpoint pages, the driver dereferences and writes to NULL, faulting the kernel (denial of service). The trigger is conditioned on the NAND medium content/health, which can be influenced by media wear, induced faults, or a corrupted/crafted on-flash image. The fix routes all error assignments through the library's NULL-safe dhara_set_error() helper. Affects Zephyr v4.4.0, where the driver was introduced.Show less

DNG SDK versions 1.7.1 2536 and earlier are affected by a NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability that could result in an application denial-of-service. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to crash the application, leading to a denial-of-service condition. Exploitation of this issue requires user interaction in that a victim must open a malicious file.Show less

A flaw has been found in GPAC 26.02.0. This affects the function nhmldump_send_frame of the file src/filters/write_nhml.c of the component Media File Handler. Executing a manipulation can lead to null pointer dereference. The attack requires local access. The exploit has been published and may be used. This patch is called bd1d94e70e3bef364c07c5a1d94eca5c9f56e160. A patch should be applied to remediate this issue. The project explains: "I would consider most of these more as bugs than vulns but anyway they're good to fix".Show less

The MAX32xxx USB device controller driver (drivers/usb/udc/udc_max32.c, compatible adi_max32_usbhs) dereferenced an endpoint buffer in its OUT and IN transfer-completion handlers without checking it for NULL. udc_event_xfer_out_done() called net_buf_add(buf, ep_request->actlen) immediately after buf = udc_buf_get(ep_cfg), where udc_buf_get() returns NULL when the endpoint FIFO is empty. A transfer-completion event is queued from interrupt context and processed asynchronously by the driver thread; between queuing and processing, the endpoint FIFO can be drained by host-controlled control flow — in particular udc_setup_received() drains the EP0 OUT/IN FIFOs whenever a new SETUP packet arrives, and dequeue/disable/purge paths drain it likewise. A USB host that aborts an in-flight EP0 control transfer with a new SETUP packet (legal USB behavior) can therefore cause a stale XFER_OUT_DONE event to be processed against an empty FIFO, producing net_buf_add(NULL, ...), a near-NULL pointer dereference that faults and crashes the device. No authentication is required; the attacker is the USB host the device is connected to (physical bus access). Impact is denial of service (device crash). The defect was introduced when the MAX32 UDC driver was added and shipped in Zephyr v4.4.0. The fix adds NULL-buffer checks that return early with UDC_EVT_ERROR/-ENOBUFS in both the OUT-done and IN-done handlers.Show less

A null pointer dereference vulnerability in WatchGuard Fireware OS may allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to create a denial-of-service (DoS) condition by sending specially crafted IKEv2 messages. This vulnerability affects both the Mobile User VPN with IKEv2 and the Branch Office VPN using IKEv2 when configured with a dynamic gateway peer. This vulnerability affects Fireware OS 11.10.2 up to and including 11.12.4_Update1, 12.0 up to and including 12.12 and 2025.1 up to and including 2026.2Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: rds: clear i_sends on setup unwind The RDS IB connection teardown path is written so it can run during partial startup and on repeated shutdown attempts. It uses NULL pointers to distinguish resources that are still owned from resources that have already been released. When rds_ib_setup_qp() fails after allocating i_sends but before allocating i_recvs, the sends_out path frees i_sends without clearing the pointer. A later shutdown pass can still treat that stale pointer as a live send ring allocation. Clear i_sends after vfree() in the error unwind path so the existing shutdown logic continues to use the correct ownership state.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: wm_adsp: Fix NULL dereference when removing firmware controls In wm_adsp_control_remove() check that the priv pointer is not NULL before attempting to cleanup what it points to. When cs_dsp creates a control it calls wm_adsp_control_add_cb() so that wm_adsp can create its own private control data. There are two cases where private data is not created: 1. The control is a SYSTEM control, so an ALSA control is not created. 2. The codec driver has registered a control_add() callback that hides the control, so wm_adsp_control_add() is not called. When cs_dsp_remove destroys its control list it calls wm_adsp_control_remove() for each control. But wm_adsp_control_remove() was attempting to cleanup the private data pointed to by cs_ctl->priv without checking the pointer for NULL.Show less

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 RIP: 0010:device_del+0x1e/0x3e0 Call Trace: sdca_dev_unregister_functions+0x37/0x60 [snd_soc_sdca] release_nodes+0x35/0xb0 devres_release_all+0x90/0x100 device_unbind_cleanup+0xe/0x80 device_release_driver_internal+0x1c1/0x200 bus_remove_device+0xc6/0x130 device_del+0x161/0x3e0 device_unregister+0x17/0x60 sdw_delete_slave+0xb6/0xd0 [soundwire_bus] sdw_bus_master_delete+0x1e/0x50 [soundwire_bus] ... sof_probe_work+0x19/0x30 [snd_sof] 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.Show less
