usb: gadget: f_tcm: Fix NULL pointer dereferences in nexus handling
The `tpg->tpg_nexus` pointer in the USB Target driver is dynamically
managed and tied to userspace configuration via ConfigFS. It can be
NULL if the USB host sends requests before the nexus is fully
established or immediately after it is dropped.
Currently, functions like `bot_submit_command()` and the data
transfer paths retrieve `tv_nexus = tpg->tpg_nexus` and immediately
dereference `tv_nexus->tvn_se_sess` without any validation. If a
malicious or misconfigured USB host sends a BOT (Bulk-Only Transport)
command during this race window, it triggers a NULL pointer
dereference, leading to a kernel panic (local DoS).
This exposes an inconsistent API usage within the module, as peer
functions like `usbg_submit_command()` and `bot_send_bad_response()`
correctly implement a NULL check for `tv_nexus` before proceeding.
Fix this by bringing consistency to the nexus handling. Add the
missing `if (!tv_nexus)` checks to the vulnerable BOT command and
request processing paths, aborting the command gracefully with an
error instead of crashing the system. |

unshare: fix unshare_fs() handling
There's an unpleasant corner case in unshare(2), when we have a
CLONE_NEWNS in flags and current->fs hadn't been shared at all; in that
case copy_mnt_ns() gets passed current->fs instead of a private copy,
which causes interesting warts in proof of correctness]
> I guess if private means fs->users == 1, the condition could still be true.
Unfortunately, it's worse than just a convoluted proof of correctness.
Consider the case when we have CLONE_NEWCGROUP in addition to CLONE_NEWNS
(and current->fs->users == 1).
We pass current->fs to copy_mnt_ns(), all right. Suppose it succeeds and
flips current->fs->{pwd,root} to corresponding locations in the new namespace.
Now we proceed to copy_cgroup_ns(), which fails (e.g. with -ENOMEM).
We call put_mnt_ns() on the namespace created by copy_mnt_ns(), it's
destroyed and its mount tree is dissolved, but... current->fs->root and
current->fs->pwd are both left pointing to now detached mounts.
They are pinning those, so it's not a UAF, but it leaves the calling
process with unshare(2) failing with -ENOMEM _and_ leaving it with
pwd and root on detached isolated mounts. The last part is clearly a bug.
There is other fun related to that mess (races with pivot_root(), including
the one between pivot_root() and fork(), of all things), but this one
is easy to isolate and fix - treat CLONE_NEWNS as "allocate a new
fs_struct even if it hadn't been shared in the first place". Sure, we could
go for something like "if both CLONE_NEWNS *and* one of the things that might
end up failing after copy_mnt_ns() call in create_new_namespaces() are set,
force allocation of new fs_struct", but let's keep it simple - the cost
of copy_fs_struct() is trivial.
Another benefit is that copy_mnt_ns() with CLONE_NEWNS *always* gets
a freshly allocated fs_struct, yet to be attached to anything. That
seriously simplifies the analysis...
FWIW, that bug had been there since the introduction of unshare(2) ;-/ |

ring-buffer: Fix possible dereference of uninitialized pointer
There is a pointer head_page in rb_meta_validate_events() which is not
initialized at the beginning of a function. This pointer can be dereferenced
if there is a failure during reader page validation. In this case the control
is passed to "invalid" label where the pointer is dereferenced in a loop.
To fix the issue initialize orig_head and head_page before calling
rb_validate_buffer.

net: bonding: Fix nd_tbl NULL dereference when IPv6 is disabled
When booting with the 'ipv6.disable=1' parameter, the nd_tbl is never
initialized because inet6_init() exits before ndisc_init() is called
which initializes it. If bonding ARP/NS validation is enabled, an IPv6
NS/NA packet received on a slave can reach bond_validate_na(), which
calls bond_has_this_ip6(). That path calls ipv6_chk_addr() and can
crash in __ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags().

scsi: ufs: core: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference in ufshcd_add_command_trace()
The kernel log indicates a crash in ufshcd_add_command_trace, due to a NULL
pointer dereference when accessing hwq->id. This can happen if
ufshcd_mcq_req_to_hwq() returns NULL.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md-cluster: fix NULL pointer dereference in process_metadata_update
The function process_metadata_update() blindly dereferences the 'thread'
pointer (acquired via rcu_dereference_protected) within the wait_event()
macro.
While the code comment states "daemon thread must exist", there is a valid
race condition window during the MD array startup sequence (md_run):
1. bitmap_load() is called, which invokes md_cluster_ops->join().
2. join() starts the "cluster_recv" thread (recv_daemon).
3. At this point, recv_daemon is active and processing messages.
4. However, mddev->thread (the main MD thread) is not initialized until
later in md_run().
If a METADATA_UPDATED message is received from a remote node during this
specific window, process_metadata_update() will be called while
mddev->thread is still NULL, leading to a kernel panic.
To fix this, we must validate the 'thread' pointer. If it is NULL, we
release the held lock (no_new_dev_lockres) and return early, safely
ignoring the update request as the array is not yet fully ready to
process it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
USB: dummy-hcd: Fix locking/synchronization error
Syzbot testing was able to provoke an addressing exception and crash
in the usb_gadget_udc_reset() routine in
drivers/usb/gadgets/udc/core.c, resulting from the fact that the
routine was called with a second ("driver") argument of NULL. The bad
caller was set_link_state() in dummy_hcd.c, and the problem arose
because of a race between a USB reset and driver unbind.
These sorts of races were not supposed to be possible; commit
7dbd8f4cabd9 ("USB: dummy-hcd: Fix erroneous synchronization change"),
along with a few followup commits, was written specifically to prevent
them. As it turns out, there are (at least) two errors remaining in
the code. Another patch will address the second error; this one is
concerned with the first.
The error responsible for the syzbot crash occurred because the
stop_activity() routine will sometimes drop and then re-acquire the
dum->lock spinlock. A call to stop_activity() occurs in
set_link_state() when handling an emulated USB reset, after the test
of dum->ints_enabled and before the increment of dum->callback_usage.
This allowed another thread (doing a driver unbind) to sneak in and
grab the spinlock, and then clear dum->ints_enabled and dum->driver.
Normally this other thread would have to wait for dum->callback_usage
to go down to 0 before it would clear dum->driver, but in this case it
didn't have to wait since dum->callback_usage had not yet been
incremented.
The fix is to increment dum->callback_usage _before_ calling
stop_activity() instead of after. Then the thread doing the unbind
will not clear dum->driver until after the call to
usb_gadget_udc_reset() safely returns and dum->callback_usage has been
decremented again. |

usb: legacy: ncm: Fix NPE in gncm_bind
Commit 56a512a9b410 ("usb: gadget: f_ncm: align net_device lifecycle
with bind/unbind") deferred the allocation of the net_device. This
change leads to a NULL pointer dereference in the legacy NCM driver as
it attempts to access the net_device before it's fully instantiated.
Store the provided qmult, host_addr, and dev_addr into the struct
ncm_opts->net_opts during gncm_bind(). These values will be properly
applied to the net_device when it is allocated and configured later in
the binding process by the NCM function driver. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: Check endpoint numbers at parsing Scarlett2 mixer interfaces
The Scarlett2 mixer quirk in USB-audio driver may hit a NULL
dereference when a malformed USB descriptor is passed, since it
assumes the presence of an endpoint in the parsed interface in
scarlett2_find_fc_interface(), as reported by fuzzer.
For avoiding the NULL dereference, just add the sanity check of
bNumEndpoints and skip the invalid interface. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: intel_pstate: Fix NULL pointer dereference in update_cpu_qos_request()
The update_cpu_qos_request() function attempts to initialize the 'freq'
variable by dereferencing 'cpudata' before verifying if the 'policy'
is valid.
This issue occurs on systems booted with the "nosmt" parameter, where
all_cpu_data[cpu] is NULL for the SMT sibling threads. As a result,
any call to update_qos_requests() will result in a NULL pointer
dereference as the code will attempt to access pstate.turbo_freq using
the NULL cpudata pointer.
Also, pstate.turbo_freq may be updated by intel_pstate_get_hwp_cap()
after initializing the 'freq' variable, so it is better to defer the
'freq' until intel_pstate_get_hwp_cap() has been called.
Fix this by deferring the 'freq' assignment until after the policy and
driver_data have been validated.

The issue occurs because rsu_send_async_msg() fails when RSU is not enabled
in firmware, causing the channel to be freed via stratix10_svc_free_channel().
However, the probe function continues execution and registers
svc_normal_to_secure_thread(), which subsequently attempts to access the
already-freed channel, triggering the NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by properly cleaning up the async client and returning early on
failure, preventing the thread from being used with an invalid channel. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
crypto: af-alg - fix NULL pointer dereference in scatterwalk
The AF_ALG interface fails to unmark the end of a Scatter/Gather List (SGL)
when chaining a new af_alg_tsgl structure. If a sendmsg() fills an SGL
exactly to MAX_SGL_ENTS, the last entry is marked as the end. A subsequent
sendmsg() allocates a new SGL and chains it, but fails to clear the end
marker on the previous SGL's last data entry.
This causes the crypto scatterwalk to hit a premature end, returning NULL
on sg_next() and leading to a kernel panic during dereference.
Fix this by explicitly unmarking the end of the previous SGL when
performing sg_chain() in af_alg_alloc_tsgl(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
auxdisplay: line-display: fix NULL dereference in linedisp_release
linedisp_release() currently retrieves the enclosing struct linedisp via
to_linedisp(). That lookup depends on the attachment list, but the
attachment may already have been removed before put_device() invokes the
release callback. This can happen in linedisp_unregister(), and can also
be reached from some linedisp_register() error paths.
In that case, to_linedisp() returns NULL and linedisp_release()
dereferences it while freeing the display resources.
The struct device released here is the embedded linedisp->dev used by
linedisp_register(), so retrieve the enclosing object directly with
container_of() instead. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: cdns3: gadget: fix NULL pointer dereference in ep_queue
When the gadget endpoint is disabled or not yet configured, the ep->desc
pointer can be NULL. This leads to a NULL pointer dereference when
__cdns3_gadget_ep_queue() is called, causing a kernel crash.
Add a check to return -ESHUTDOWN if ep->desc is NULL, which is the
standard return code for unconfigured endpoints.
This prevents potential crashes when ep_queue is called on endpoints
that are not ready. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: reject direct access to nullable PTR_TO_BUF pointers
check_mem_access() matches PTR_TO_BUF via base_type() which strips
PTR_MAYBE_NULL, allowing direct dereference without a null check.
Map iterator ctx->key and ctx->value are PTR_TO_BUF | PTR_MAYBE_NULL.
On stop callbacks these are NULL, causing a kernel NULL dereference.
Add a type_may_be_null() guard to the PTR_TO_BUF branch, matching the
existing PTR_TO_BTF_ID pattern. |
