net/sched: act_api: avoid dereferencing ERR_PTR in tcf_idrinfo_destroy
syzbot reported a crash in tc_act_in_hw() during netns teardown where
tcf_idrinfo_destroy() passed an ERR_PTR(-EBUSY) value as a tc_action
pointer, leading to an invalid dereference.
Guard against ERR_PTR entries when iterating the action IDR so teardown
does not call tc_act_in_hw() on an error pointer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
idpf: Fix RSS LUT NULL pointer crash on early ethtool operations
The RSS LUT is not initialized until the interface comes up, causing
the following NULL pointer crash when ethtool operations like rxhash on/off
are performed before the interface is brought up for the first time.
Move RSS LUT initialization from ndo_open to vport creation to ensure LUT
is always available. This enables RSS configuration via ethtool before
bringing the interface up. Simplify LUT management by maintaining all
changes in the driver's soft copy and programming zeros to the indirection
table when rxhash is disabled. Defer HW programming until the interface
comes up if it is down during rxhash and LUT configuration changes.
Steps to reproduce:
** Load idpf driver; interfaces will be created
modprobe idpf
** Before bringing the interfaces up, turn rxhash off
ethtool -K eth2 rxhash off

driver core: fix potential null-ptr-deref in device_add()
I got the following null-ptr-deref report while doing fault injection test:

// The dev->driver is not null, but driver is not bound.
__device_release_driver()
klist_remove(&dev->p->knode_driver) <-- It causes null-ptr-deref.

bus_probe_device() // It's not called yet.
device_bind_driver()
If dev->driver is set, in the error path after calling bus_add_device()
in device_add(), bus_remove_device() is called, then the device will be
detached from driver. But device_bind_driver() is not called yet, so it
causes null-ptr-deref while access the 'knode_driver'. To fix this, set
dev->driver to null in the error path before calling bus_remove_device(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: do not write to msg_get_inq in callee
NULL pointer dereference fix.
msg_get_inq is an input field from caller to callee. Don't set it in
the callee, as the caller may not clear it on struct reuse.
This is a kernel-internal variant of msghdr only, and the only user
does reinitialize the field. So this is not critical for that reason.
But it is more robust to avoid the write, and slightly simpler code.
And it fixes a bug, see below.
Callers set msg_get_inq to request the input queue length to be
returned in msg_inq. This is equivalent to but independent from the
SO_INQ request to return that same info as a cmsg (tp->recvmsg_inq).
To reduce branching in the hot path the second also sets the msg_inq.
That is WAI.
This is a fix to commit 4d1442979e4a ("af_unix: don't post cmsg for
SO_INQ unless explicitly asked for"), which fixed the inverse.
Also avoid NULL pointer dereference in unix_stream_read_generic if
state->msg is NULL and msg->msg_get_inq is written. A NULL state->msg
can happen when splicing as of commit 2b514574f7e8 ("net: af_unix:
implement splice for stream af_unix sockets").
Also collapse two branches using a bitwise or. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mscc: ocelot: Fix crash when adding interface under a lag
Commit 15faa1f67ab4 ("lan966x: Fix crash when adding interface under a lag")
fixed a similar issue in the lan966x driver caused by a NULL pointer dereference.
The ocelot_set_aggr_pgids() function in the ocelot driver has similar logic
and is susceptible to the same crash.
This issue specifically affects the ocelot_vsc7514.c frontend, which leaves
unused ports as NULL pointers. The felix_vsc9959.c frontend is unaffected as
it uses the DSA framework which registers all ports.
Fix this by checking if the port pointer is valid before accessing it. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
idpf: detach and close netdevs while handling a reset
Protect the reset path from callbacks by setting the netdevs to detached
state and close any netdevs in UP state until the reset handling has
completed. During a reset, the driver will de-allocate resources for the
vport, and there is no guarantee that those will recover, which is why the
existing vport_ctrl_lock does not provide sufficient protection.
idpf_detach_and_close() is called right before reset handling. If the
reset handling succeeds, the netdevs state is recovered via call to
idpf_attach_and_open(). If the reset handling fails the netdevs remain
down. The detach/down calls are protected with RTNL lock to avoid racing
with callbacks. On the recovery side the attach can be done without
holding the RTNL lock as there are no callbacks expected at that point,
due to detach/close always being done first in that flow.
The previous logic restoring the netdevs state based on the
IDPF_VPORT_UP_REQUESTED flag in the init task is not needed anymore, hence
the removal of idpf_set_vport_state(). The IDPF_VPORT_UP_REQUESTED is
still being used to restore the state of the netdevs following the reset,
but has no use outside of the reset handling flow.
idpf_init_hard_reset() is converted to void, since it was used as such and
there is no error handling being done based on its return value.
Before this change, invoking hard and soft resets simultaneously will
cause the driver to lose the vport state:
ip -br a
<inf> UP
echo 1 > /sys/class/net/ens801f0/device/reset& \
ethtool -L ens801f0 combined 8
ip -br a
<inf> DOWN
ip link set <inf> up
ip -br a
<inf> DOWN
Also in case of a failure in the reset path, the netdev is left
exposed to external callbacks, while vport resources are not
initialized, leading to a crash on subsequent ifup/down:

libceph: return the handler error from mon_handle_auth_done()
Currently any error from ceph_auth_handle_reply_done() is propagated
via finish_auth() but isn't returned from mon_handle_auth_done(). This
results in higher layers learning that (despite the monitor considering
us to be successfully authenticated) something went wrong in the

idpf: Fix RSS LUT NULL ptr issue after soft reset
During soft reset, the RSS LUT is freed and not restored unless the
interface is up. If an ethtool command that accesses the rss lut is
attempted immediately after reset, it will result in NULL ptr
dereference. Also, there is no need to reset the rss lut if the soft reset
does not involve queue count change.
After soft reset, set the RSS LUT to default values based on the updated
queue count only if the reset was a result of a queue count change and
the LUT was not configured by the user. In all other cases, don't touch
the LUT.
Steps to reproduce:
** Bring the interface down (if up)
ifconfig eth1 down
** update the queue count (eg., 27->20)
ethtool -L eth1 combined 20
** display the RSS LUT
ethtool -x eth1

nvme-tcp: fix NULL pointer dereferences in nvmet_tcp_build_pdu_iovec
Commit efa56305908b ("nvmet-tcp: Fix a kernel panic when host sends an invalid H2C PDU length")
added ttag bounds checking and data_offset
validation in nvmet_tcp_handle_h2c_data_pdu(), but it did not validate
whether the command's data structures (cmd->req.sg and cmd->iov) have
been properly initialized before processing H2C_DATA PDUs.
The nvmet_tcp_build_pdu_iovec() function dereferences these pointers
without NULL checks. This can be triggered by sending H2C_DATA PDU
immediately after the ICREQ/ICRESP handshake, before
sending a CONNECT command or NVMe write command.
Attack vectors that trigger NULL pointer dereferences:
1. H2C_DATA PDU sent before CONNECT → both pointers NULL
2. H2C_DATA PDU for READ command → cmd->req.sg allocated, cmd->iov NULL
3. H2C_DATA PDU for uninitialized command slot → both pointers NULL
The fix validates both cmd->req.sg and cmd->iov before calling
nvmet_tcp_build_pdu_iovec(). Both checks are required because:
- Uninitialized commands: both NULL
- READ commands: cmd->req.sg allocated, cmd->iov NULL
- WRITE commands: both allocated |

devlink: rate: Unset parent pointer in devl_rate_nodes_destroy
The function devl_rate_nodes_destroy is documented to "Unset parent for
all rate objects". However, it was only calling the driver-specific
`rate_leaf_parent_set` or `rate_node_parent_set` ops and decrementing
the parent's refcount, without actually setting the
`devlink_rate->parent` pointer to NULL.
This leaves a dangling pointer in the `devlink_rate` struct, which cause
refcount error in netdevsim[1] and mlx5[2]. In addition, this is
inconsistent with the behavior of `devlink_nl_rate_parent_node_set`,
where the parent pointer is correctly cleared.
This patch fixes the issue by explicitly setting `devlink_rate->parent`
to NULL after notifying the driver, thus fulfilling the function's
documented behavior for all rate objects.

| ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40, a NULL pointer dereference in ClonePixelCacheRepository allows a remote attacker to crash any application linked against ImageMagick by supplying a crafted image file, resulting in denial of service. Versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 contain a patch. |
| ImageMagick is free and open-source software used for editing and manipulating digital images. Prior to versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40, in `ReadSFWImage()` (`coders/sfw.c`), when temporary file creation fails, `read_info` is destroyed before its `filename` member is accessed, causing a NULL pointer dereference and crash. Versions 7.1.2-15 and 6.9.13-40 contain a patch. |
