CVSS v3.1 |
| A NULL pointer dereference in the component /libsrc/dcrleccd.cc of DCMTK v3.6.9+ DEV allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted DICOM file. |
| When a transaction is committed, C Xenstored will first check
the quota is correct before attempting to commit any nodes. It would
be possible that accounting is temporarily negative if a node has
been removed outside of the transaction.
Unfortunately, some versions of C Xenstored are assuming that the
quota cannot be negative and are using assert() to confirm it. This
will lead to C Xenstored crash when tools are built without -DNDEBUG
(this is the default).
|
| A NULL pointer can be dereferenced when signatures are being
verified on PKCS7 signed or signedAndEnveloped data. In case the hash
algorithm used for the signature is known to the OpenSSL library but
the implementation of the hash algorithm is not available the digest
initialization will fail. There is a missing check for the return
value from the initialization function which later leads to invalid
usage of the digest API most likely leading to a crash.
The unavailability of an algorithm can be caused by using FIPS
enabled configuration of providers or more commonly by not loading
the legacy provider.
PKCS7 data is processed by the SMIME library calls and also by the
time stamp (TS) library calls. The TLS implementation in OpenSSL does
not call these functions however third party applications would be
affected if they call these functions to verify signatures on untrusted
data. |
| An invalid pointer dereference on read can be triggered when an
application tries to check a malformed DSA public key by the
EVP_PKEY_public_check() function. This will most likely lead
to an application crash. This function can be called on public
keys supplied from untrusted sources which could allow an attacker
to cause a denial of service attack.
The TLS implementation in OpenSSL does not call this function
but applications might call the function if there are additional
security requirements imposed by standards such as FIPS 140-3. |
| An invalid pointer dereference on read can be triggered when an
application tries to load malformed PKCS7 data with the
d2i_PKCS7(), d2i_PKCS7_bio() or d2i_PKCS7_fp() functions.
The result of the dereference is an application crash which could
lead to a denial of service attack. The TLS implementation in OpenSSL
does not call this function however third party applications might
call these functions on untrusted data. |
| A vulnerability has been found in GNU elfutils 0.192 and classified as problematic. This vulnerability affects the function handle_dynamic_symtab of the file readelf.c of the component eu-read. The manipulation leads to null pointer dereference. Attacking locally is a requirement. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The patch is identified as b38e562a4c907e08171c76b8b2def8464d5a104a. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Revert "kobject: Remove redundant checks for whether ktype is NULL"
This reverts commit 1b28cb81dab7c1eedc6034206f4e8d644046ad31.
It is reported to cause problems, so revert it for now until the root
cause can be found. |
| An issue was discovered in SchedMD Slurm 22.05.x, 23.02.x, and 23.11.x. A NULL pointer dereference leads to denial of service. The fixed versions are 22.05.11, 23.02.7, and 23.11.1. |
| Transmit requests in Xen's virtual network protocol can consist of
multiple parts. While not really useful, except for the initial part
any of them may be of zero length, i.e. carry no data at all. Besides a
certain initial portion of the to be transferred data, these parts are
directly translated into what Linux calls SKB fragments. Such converted
request parts can, when for a particular SKB they are all of length
zero, lead to a de-reference of NULL in core networking code. |
| Mesa 23.0.4 was discovered to contain a NULL pointer dereference in check_xshm() for the has_error state. NOTE: this is disputed because there is no scenario in which the vulnerability was demonstrated. |
| Xfig v3.2.8 was discovered to contain a NULL pointer dereference when calling XGetWMHints(). NOTE: this is disputed because it is not expected that an X application should continue to run when there is arbitrary anomalous behavior from the X server or window manager. |
| Mesa v23.0.4 was discovered to contain a NULL pointer dereference via the function dri2GetGlxDrawableFromXDrawableId(). This vulnerability is triggered when the X11 server sends an DRI2_BufferSwapComplete event unexpectedly when the application is using DRI3. NOTE: this is disputed because there is no scenario in which the vulnerability was demonstrated. |
| Null Pointer Dereference in mask_cidr6 component at cidr.c in Tcpreplay 4.4.4 allows attackers to crash the application via crafted tcprewrite command. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ti: icss-iep: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference for perout request
The ICSS IEP driver tracks perout and pps enable state with flags.
Currently when disabling pps and perout signals during icss_iep_exit(),
results in NULL pointer dereference for perout.
To fix the null pointer dereference issue, the icss_iep_perout_enable_hw
function can be modified to directly clear the IEP CMP registers when
disabling PPS or PEROUT, without referencing the ptp_perout_request
structure, as its contents are irrelevant in this case. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: btrtl: Prevent potential NULL dereference
The btrtl_initialize() function checks that rtl_load_file() either
had an error or it loaded a zero length file. However, if it loaded
a zero length file then the error code is not set correctly. It
results in an error pointer vs NULL bug, followed by a NULL pointer
dereference. This was detected by Smatch:
drivers/bluetooth/btrtl.c:592 btrtl_initialize() warn: passing zero to 'ERR_PTR' |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
greybus: lights: check return of get_channel_from_mode
If channel for the given node is not found we return null from
get_channel_from_mode. Make sure we validate the return pointer
before using it in two of the missing places.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: max3100: Update uart_driver_registered on driver removal
The removal of the last MAX3100 device triggers the removal of
the driver. However, code doesn't update the respective global
variable and after insmod — rmmod — insmod cycle the kernel
oopses:
max3100 spi-PRP0001:01: max3100_probe: adding port 0
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000408
...
RIP: 0010:serial_core_register_port+0xa0/0x840
...
max3100_probe+0x1b6/0x280 [max3100]
spi_probe+0x8d/0xb0
Update the actual state so next time UART driver will be registered
again.
Hugo also noticed, that the error path in the probe also affected
by having the variable set, and not cleared. Instead of clearing it
move the assignment after the successfull uart_register_driver() call. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/arm/malidp: fix a possible null pointer dereference
In malidp_mw_connector_reset, new memory is allocated with kzalloc, but
no check is performed. In order to prevent null pointer dereferencing,
ensure that mw_state is checked before calling
__drm_atomic_helper_connector_reset. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: core: Clearing the circular buffer before NULLifying it
The circular buffer is NULLified in uart_tty_port_shutdown()
under the spin lock. However, the PM or other timer based callbacks
may still trigger after this event without knowning that buffer pointer
is not valid. Since the serial code is a bit inconsistent in checking
the buffer state (some rely on the head-tail positions, some on the
buffer pointer), it's better to have both aligned, i.e. buffer pointer
to be NULL and head-tail possitions to be the same, meaning it's empty.
This will prevent asynchronous calls to dereference NULL pointer as
reported recently in 8250 case:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000cf5
Workqueue: pm pm_runtime_work
EIP: serial8250_tx_chars (drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_port.c:1809)

__rpm_callback (drivers/base/power/runtime.c:393)
? serial_port_remove (drivers/tty/serial/serial_port.c:50)
rpm_suspend (drivers/base/power/runtime.c:447)
The proposed change will prevent ->start_tx() to be called during
suspend on shut down port. |

Adding any sort of useful debug usually makes it go away, so I hand
wrote the function in a line, and debugged the asm.
Every so often pt->memory->ptrs is NULL. This ptrs ptr is set in
the nv50_instobj_acquire called from nvkm_kmap.
If Thread A and Thread B both get to nv50_instobj_acquire around
the same time, and Thread A hits the refcount_set line, and in
lockstep thread B succeeds at refcount_inc_not_zero, there is a
chance the ptrs value won't have been stored since refcount_set
is unordered. Force a memory barrier here, I picked smp_mb, since
we want it on all CPUs and it's write followed by a read.
v2: use paired smp_rmb/smp_wmb. |
