NULL Pointer Dereference

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: rtw89: coex: check NULL return of kmalloc in btc_fw_set_monreg() kmalloc may fail, return value might be NULL and will cause NULL pointer dereference. Add check NULL return of kmalloc in btc_fw_set_monreg().Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Bluetooth: btmtk: adjust the position to init iso data anchor MediaTek iso data anchor init should be moved to where MediaTek claims iso data interface. If there is an unexpected BT usb disconnect during setup flow, it will cause a NULL pointer crash issue when releasing iso anchor since the anchor wasn't been init yet. Adjust the position to do iso data anchor init.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/s390: Implement blocking domain This fixes a crash when surprise hot-unplugging a PCI device. This crash happens because during hot-unplug __iommu_group_set_domain_nofail() attaching the default domain fails when the platform no longer recognizes the device as it has already been removed and we end up with a NULL domain pointer and UAF. This is exactly the case referred to in the second comment in __iommu_device_set_domain() and just as stated there if we can instead attach the blocking domain the UAF is prevented as this can handle the already removed device. Implement the blocking domain to use this handling. With this change, the crash is fixed but we still hit a warning attempting to change DMA ownership on a blocked device.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/mlx5: Move events notifier registration to be after device registration Move pkey change work initialization and cleanup from device resources stage to notifier stage, since this is the stage which handles this work events. Fix a race between the device deregistration and pkey change work by moving MLX5_IB_STAGE_DEVICE_NOTIFIER to be after MLX5_IB_STAGE_IB_REG in order to ensure that the notifier is deregistered before the device during cleanup. Which ensures there are no works that are being executed after the device has already unregistered which can cause the panic below.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bnxt_en: Fix receive ring space parameters when XDP is active The MTU setting at the time an XDP multi-buffer is attached determines whether the aggregation ring will be used and the rx_skb_func handler.

If the MTU is later changed, the aggregation ring setting may need to be changed and it may become out-of-sync with the settings initially done in bnxt_set_rx_skb_mode(). This may result in random memory corruption and crashes as the HW may DMA data larger than the allocated buffer size, such as: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000003c0 PGD 0 P4D 0 Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI CPU: 17 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/17 Kdump: loaded Tainted: G S OE 6.1.0-226bf9805506 #1 Hardware name: Wiwynn Delta Lake PVT BZA.02601.0150/Delta Lake-Class1, BIOS F0E_3A12 08/26/2021 RIP: 0010:bnxt_rx_pkt+0xe97/0x1ae0 [bnxt_en] Code: 8b 95 70 ff ff ff 4c 8b 9d 48 ff ff ff 66 41 89 87 b4 00 00 00 e9 0b f7 ff ff 0f b7 43 0a 49 8b 95 a8 04 00 00 25 ff 0f 00 00 <0f> b7 14 42 48 c1 e2 06 49 03 95 a0 04 00 00 0f b6 42 33f RSP: 0018:ffffa19f40cc0d18 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: 00000000000001e0 RBX: ffff8e2c805c6100 RCX: 00000000000007ff RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: ffff8e2c271ab990 RDI: ffff8e2c84f12380 RBP: ffffa19f40cc0e48 R08: 000000000001000d R09: 974ea2fcddfa4cbf R10: 0000000000000000 R11: ffffa19f40cc0ff8 R12: ffff8e2c94b58980 R13: ffff8e2c952d6600 R14: 0000000000000016 R15: ffff8e2c271ab990 FS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff8e3b3f840000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 00000000000003c0 CR3: 0000000e8580a004 CR4: 00000000007706e0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 PKRU: 55555554 Call Trace: <IRQ> __bnxt_poll_work+0x1c2/0x3e0 [bnxt_en] To address the issue, we now call bnxt_set_rx_skb_mode() within bnxt_change_mtu() to properly set the AGG rings configuration and update rx_skb_func based on the new MTU value.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Fix null check for pipe_ctx->plane_state in dcn20_program_pipe This commit addresses a null pointer dereference issue in dcn20_program_pipe(). Previously, commit 8e4ed3cf1642 ("drm/amd/display: Add null check for pipe_ctx->plane_state in dcn20_program_pipe") partially fixed the null pointer dereference issue. However, in dcn20_update_dchubp_dpp(), the variable pipe_ctx is passed in, and plane_state is accessed again through pipe_ctx. Multiple if statements directly call attributes of plane_state, leading to potential null pointer dereference issues. This patch adds necessary null checks to ensure stability.Show less

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Fix null check for pipe_ctx->plane_state in hwss_setup_dpp This commit addresses a null pointer dereference issue in hwss_setup_dpp().
