| libde265 commit 4d45a6b contains a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in the NAL parsing path. When de265_push_NAL() is called with a zero-length NAL unit, the resulting NAL_unit may retain a NULL backing buffer, which is subsequently passed as the destination argument to memcpy() in NAL_unit::set_data(). Although the copy length is zero, this violates the nonnull requirement of memcpy() and results in undefined behavior, causing process termination in UBSan-instrumented builds and denial of service. |
| OpenEXR 3.4.14 contains a NULL Pointer Dereference in the C++ attribute parsing path. A specially crafted EXR file containing an unknown-type attribute with dataSize set to zero causes the parser to create an opaque attribute with a NULL packed_data pointer. The OpaqueAttribute constructor passes the NULL pointer to memcpy() without validating the zero-size condition, resulting in undefined behavior and process termination, leading to denial of service. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: null-check fib6_node before accessing in __ip6_del_rt_siblings()
syzbot reported a null-ptr-deref in __ip6_del_rt_siblings() [0].
The stack trace hinted towards a null dereference of rt->fib6_node when
fn->leaf is accessed in __ip6_del_rt_siblings(). With
RTNL_FLAG_DOIT_UNLOCKED set, inet6_rtm_delroute() operations run
concurrently without acquiring the RTNL lock. In ip6_route_del(), the
route lookup happens under rcu_read_lock() without acquiring
table->tb6_lock.
Between ip6_route_del() looking up the route and __ip6_del_rt_siblings()
acquiring table->tb6_lock, another thread can modify the routing table.
For example, when an ECMP route is replaced via RTM_NEWROUTE with
NLM_F_REPLACE, fib6_add_rt2node() unlinks all old siblings and sets
iter->fib6_node = NULL. A reproducer was found that triggers this [1].
Add a check to ensure rt->fib6_node is non-null before accessing it.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Mark sched_process_wait argument as nullable
do_wait() passes wo->wo_pid to the sched_process_wait tracepoint.
kernel_wait4() leaves wo_pid NULL for wait4(-1), and
kernel_waitid_prepare() does likewise for waitid(P_ALL).
btf_ctx_access() currently types argument 0 as PTR_TO_BTF_ID |
PTR_TRUSTED. Without PTR_MAYBE_NULL, the verifier accepts an unchecked
dereference. Trusted pointer loads have no fault protection, so a wait for
any child can then cause a NULL pointer dereference in JITed BPF code.
Add sched_process_wait to raw_tp_null_args[] with argument 0 marked
nullable. The verifier rejects an unchecked dereference while preserving
access after the program checks the pointer for NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
smb: client: harden DFS cache against invalid target hints
Currently, get_tgt_name() returns ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) when ce->tgthint is
NULL, and dfs_cache_noreq_update_tgthint() assumes ce->tgthint is always
valid.
In preparation for clearing ce->tgthint in free_tgts(), harden callers
of get_tgt_name() against ERR_PTR results and harden
dfs_cache_noreq_update_tgthint() against NULL pointer dereferences. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Keep refcount_acquire nullable for borrowed RCU kptrs
bpf_refcount_acquire() is fallible for a borrowed reference because the
object may have reached a zero refcount. The verifier therefore keeps
KF_RET_NULL on the return value unless the argument is an owning reference.
An RCU-protected load of a local kptr is marked MEM_ALLOC, but it only
receives NON_OWN_REF when the pointee contains a graph node. A refcounted
object without a graph node consequently looks like an owning reference
even though the loaded register has no acquired reference state. If the
program drops the last real reference while remaining in the RCU critical
section, refcount_inc_not_zero() returns NULL while the verifier treats the
result as non-NULL.
Only classify the argument as owning when it is backed by a verifier-tracked
reference. This retains the non-NULL return for pointers from bpf_obj_new(),
bpf_kptr_xchg(), or an earlier successful acquisition, while requiring a
NULL check for borrowed RCU kptrs.

s390/pai: Support CPU hotplug for PMU PAI
The command 'perf stat -e pai_crypto/CRYPTO_ALL/ -- <command>'
crashes the kernel when CPUs are hotplug added during that run.
Root cause is the missing allocation of per-CPU data structures
for that new CPU. The allocation is dynamic and the first
event that has task context creates such a structure for
each online CPU. This is not sufficient. CPUs may be offline
during event creation and can be set online during the
perf run time. For example commands
# echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
# perf stat -e cycles -i -- stress-ng -t10s --matrix X
# sleep 1
# echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
Currently without a CPU hotplug handler, that new CPU has no
per-CPU data infrastructure. The scheduler runs PMU call back
function pai_add() to install the PMU support for that CPU before
the task is being scheduled on that new CPU.
In pai_add() instructions
mp = this_cpu_ptr(pai_root[idx].mapptr);
cpump = mp->mapptr;
return a NULL pointer and the result is a kernel panic as variable
cpump is used inside that function.
Add CPU hotplug support for CPU add and delete and create
the necessary per-CPU data infrastructure during CPU hotplug
add processing. Same for CPU hotplug remove.
This is done when the CPU is offline to ensure the data structures
are available when CPU is made online and tasks are scheduled on it.

| InDesign Desktop is 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. |

s390/debug: Fix NULL pointer dereference in debug_set_level()
Commit a2cec6863709 ("s390/debug: Add s390dbf kernel parameter")
incorrectly removed a null-id check from debug_set_level(), introducing
a possible NULL pointer dereference for debug-API users that put
debug_register() results unchecked into debug_set_level().
Fix this by moving the check from the internal _debug_set_level()
variant back to the external debug_set_level() wrapper. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
erofs: preserve LZMA decoders on resize failure
The pool-resize path frees each stream's old decoder before allocating
its replacement. If an allocation fails after some streams have already
been replaced, the failed stream is put back on the list with state ==
NULL. z_erofs_lzma_max_dictsize is still advanced as if the whole
pool had been resized.
An existing LZMA mount can select the broken stream and pass
NULL to xz_dec_microlzma_reset(). A retry at the same size also
skip another resize attempt. Since the global maximum was advanced,
thus, the invalid state is left unrepaired.
Allocate each replacement before freeing the old decoder, temporarily
retaining one old decoder during allocation. Stop at the first failure
and advance z_erofs_lzma_max_dictsize only after all streams satisfy
the request.
Record each stream's dictionary capacity so retries can skip streams
already enlarged before a partial failure. |

Bluetooth: hci_sysfs: Fix NULL pointer dereference in device_del()
A NULL pointer dereference in klist_put() occurs when a child device (such
as a BNEP network device in bnep_session) is concurrently being
unregistered while hci_conn_del_sysfs() reparents child devices.
This is caused by a race condition between hci_conn_del_sysfs() and
concurrent child device unregistration (e.g. bnep_session calling
unregister_netdev()). During device unregistration, device_del() snapshots
a non-NULL parent pointer. Concurrently, hci_conn_del_sysfs() finds the
child device using device_find_any_child() and calls device_move() to
reparent it to NULL, which removes the node from its parent's klist and
clears knode_parent. Subsequently, device_del() calls
klist_del(&dev->p->knode_parent) using the stale parent snapshot, causing
klist_put() to dereference knode_klist(n)->put on an already removed node,
resulting in a NULL pointer dereference.
This race was introduced by commit 27aabf27fd01 ("Bluetooth: fix
use-after-free in device_for_each_child()"), which replaced
device_find_child(..., __match_tty) with device_find_any_child() in
hci_conn_del_sysfs(). That change was intended to avoid a use-after-free
where conn->dev outlived its parent hdev->dev when child devices held
references to conn->dev, because conn->dev only held a reference to
hdev->dev while registered in sysfs.
Fix the issue properly by taking an explicit reference to the parent device
with get_device(&hdev->dev) in hci_conn_init_sysfs() and dropping it with
put_device(parent) in bt_link_release() when the conn device is freed. This
ensures that hdev->dev remains valid for the entire lifecycle of conn->dev,
resolving the underlying use-after-free. With the parent reference held
properly, restore the __match_tty filter in hci_conn_del_sysfs() so that
device_move() is only invoked on persistent RFCOMM TTY devices as
originally intended, eliminating the race condition with unregistering
network devices. |

iommu/s390: Fix NULL dereference in iova_to_phys() with ZPCI_TABLE_TYPE_RFX
When using a 5-level translation table via ZPCI_TABLE_TYPE_RFX
get_rso_from_iova() returns NULL when the region-first entry is invalid.
Yet in get_rto_from_iova() the region-second origin rso is not checked
to be non-NULL before accessing rso[rsx] leading to a NULL pointer
dereference instead of a NULL return when iova_to_phys() is called on
a unmapped IOVA. Fix this by adding the missing NULL check. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_qca: fix NULL pointer dereference in qca_setup() for non-serdev device
hu->serdev is NULL for hci_uart attached via non-serdev paths, but
qca_setup() unconditionally calls serdev_device_get_drvdata(hu->serdev)
and dereferences the result, causing a NULL pointer dereference.
Fix by guarding the dereference with a NULL check, consistent with the
rest of qca_setup(). |

When netfs_alloc_subrequest() fails, subreq is NULL.

drm/amd/display: Avoid DPMS-on for phantom stream

Calling dc_update_planes_and_stream separately for stream and its
phantom stream causes a NULL pointer dereference, since the phantom is

ASoC: mediatek: mt8365-afe-pcm: fix possible NULL-pointer dereferences in mt8365_afe_suspend()
mt8365_afe_suspend() allocates the register backup buffer with
devm_kcalloc(), but does not check for allocation failure before using the
returned pointer. This may lead to a NULL pointer dereference when
accessing afe->reg_back_up[i].
Add the missing NULL check and return -ENOMEM on allocation failure after
disabling the main clock.
Also propagate the return value of mt8365_afe_suspend() in
mt8365_afe_dev_runtime_suspend() so that the suspended state is not updated
when suspend fails. |

mm/hugetlb: fix boot panic with CONFIG_DEBUG_VM and HVO bootmem pages
Patch series "mm: Refactor bootmem gigantic hugepage allocation", v4.
This series is split out from the earlier larger series "mm: Generalize
HVO for HugeTLB and device DAX" [1]. It collects the first 19 patches of
that series as a standalone set of fixes and preparatory cleanups around
bootmem HugeTLB handling, sparse initialization ordering, and related
vmemmap setup.
The first patches fix a few bugs found while reviewing the existing code,
including incorrect bootmem HVO handling, wrong vmemmap registration
arguments, a powerpc compound-vmemmap tracking bug, and too-late
initialization of gigantic bootmem HugeTLB struct pages.
The rest of the series reorders early memory initialization so the
relevant zone state is available before sparse and HugeTLB boot-time setup
runs, then simplifies the remaining bootmem gigantic hugepage allocation
path and removes code made obsolete by that rework.
At a high level:
- patches [1-4] fix boot-time and arch-specific bugs
- patches [5-12] reorder and simplify sparse/mm/hugetlb early init
- patches [13-19] refactor bootmem gigantic hugepage allocation and
remove obsolete helpers and state
This patch (of 19):
Commit 622026e87c40 ("mm/hugetlb: remove fake head pages") switched
HVO to reuse per-zone shared tail pages from zone->vmemmap_tails[].
Those shared tail pages were initialized in hugetlb_vmemmap_init(), but
bootmem HugeTLB folios are prepared earlier from
gather_bootmem_prealloc(). With hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on,
prep_and_add_bootmem_folios() can access pageblock flags on bootmem
HugeTLB pages whose mirrored tail struct pages already point to the shared
tail page. On CONFIG_DEBUG_VM kernels, get_pfnblock_bitmap_bitidx() then
dereferences the still-uninitialized shared tail page and can panic during
boot.
Initialize zone->vmemmap_tails[] from gather_bootmem_prealloc(), before
bootmem HugeTLB folios are processed, and drop the later initialization
from hugetlb_vmemmap_init().
This bug only affects CONFIG_DEBUG_VM kernels, where the relevant
assertion is evaluated. |

media: meson: vdec: fix NULL pointer deref in vdec_try_fmt_common
When VIDIOC_TRY_FMT is called with an unsupported pixel format on the
OUTPUT queue, vdec_try_fmt_common() falls back to V4L2_PIX_FMT_MPEG2.
However, if a distro has locally patched MPEG2 support out (as it has
been broken for some time) the platform format table does not contain
MPEG2 so find_format() returns NULL and the subsequent dereference of
fmt_out->max_width triggers a NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by falling back to the first format in the platform's format
array instead of hardcoding V4L2_PIX_FMT_MPEG2. This is always valid
since every platform defines at least one format. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: initialize DRC hash table before registering shrinker
shrinker_register() precedes the INIT_LIST_HEAD loop and the
drc_hashsize store. On weakly-ordered architectures (arm64, ppc),
a shrinker scan can observe drc_hashsize before the bucket list
heads are initialized, causing a NULL deref in the DRC shrinker
callback.
Move bucket initialization and the drc_hashsize store before
shrinker_register() so the hash table is fully initialized before
it becomes visible to the shrinker. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nfsd: guard nfsd_serv deref in nfsd_file_net_dispose
nfsd_file_net_dispose() is the consumer side of l->freeme: the nfsd
service thread loop calls it to drain entries that the filecache
garbage collector and shrinker append via
nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed(). During per-net teardown,
nn->nfsd_serv is cleared before the filecache laundrette is shut
down, so the service thread can still run a dispose pass that finds
more than eight entries on l->freeme and dereferences a NULL
svc_serv:
nfsd service thread loop
nfsd_file_net_dispose(nn)
if (!list_empty(&l->freeme)) {
...
svc_wake_up(nn->nfsd_serv); /* nn->nfsd_serv == NULL */
}
The sibling helper nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed() already documents
this ordering and caches nn->nfsd_serv into a local before testing it
for NULL. nfsd_file_net_dispose() was introduced with the same raw
svc_wake_up(nn->nfsd_serv) call and never picked up the guard.
Fix by loading nn->nfsd_serv into a local svc_serv pointer and only
calling svc_wake_up() when it is non-NULL, matching the pattern in
nfsd_file_dispose_list_delayed(). |
