| The CAF demuxer in modules/demux/caf.c in VideoLAN VLC media player 3.0.4 may read memory from an uninitialized pointer when processing magic cookies in CAF files, because a ReadKukiChunk() cast converts a return value to an unsigned int even if that value is negative. This could result in a denial of service and/or a potential infoleak. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnxt_en: Handle partially initialized auxiliary devices
bnxt_aux_devices_init() calls auxiliary_device_init() before all fields
used by bnxt_aux_dev_release() are initialized. After
auxiliary_device_init() succeeds, later errors must unwind with
auxiliary_device_uninit(), which invokes the release callback.
The release callback assumes that aux_priv->id, aux_priv->edev,
edev->net and edev->ulp_tbl are all populated. If allocation fails
after auxiliary_device_init(), the release path can otherwise dereference
or clear partially initialized state.
Allocate and attach the bnxt_en_dev and ULP table before calling
auxiliary_device_init(), so the release callback only sees a fully
initialized auxiliary private object. If auxiliary_device_init() itself
fails, free those allocations directly because device_initialize() has not
run and the release callback will not be invoked.
This issue was found by a static analysis checker and confirmed by manual
source review. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: fix amdgpu_hmm_range_get_pages
The notifier sequence must only be read once or otherwise we could work
with invalid pages.
While at it also fix the coding style, e.g. drop the pre-initialized
return value and use the common define for 2G range.

TP_fast_assign() unconditionally calls udp_hdr(skb) before checking
whether the packet is UDP. Furthermore, __icmp_send() can be invoked
from paths (e.g., link failures, ARP errors, forwarding, AF_PACKET)
where skb->transport_header was never initialized (~0U).
Under CONFIG_DEBUG_NET=y, calling skb_transport_header(skb) triggers
DEBUG_NET_WARN_ON_ONCE(!skb_transport_header_was_set(skb)).
Fix this by:
1. Only parsing transport info when iph->protocol == IPPROTO_UDP.
2. Using skb_header_pointer() at skb_network_offset(skb) + (iph->ihl << 2)
to safely fetch the UDP header without assuming transport_header is set. |
| libmspack through 0.11alpha contains an uninitialized pointer free vulnerability in kwajd_open() in mspack/kwajd.c that frees unzeroed filename and extra pointers on header read errors. Attackers can supply a truncated, empty, or wrong-signature KWAJ file to crash the process or obtain an arbitrary-free memory corruption primitive. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ebtables: zero chainstack array
sashiko reports:
looking at ebtables table
translation, could a sparse cpu_possible_mask lead to an uninitialized pointer
free?
If cpu_possible_mask is sparse (for example, CPU 0 and CPU 2 are possible,
but CPU 1 is not), the allocation loop skips CPU 1. If vmalloc_node() fails at
CPU 2, the cleanup loop will blindly decrement and call vfree() on
newinfo->chainstack[1].
Not a real-world bug, such allocation isn't expected to fail
in the first place. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i2c: core: fix adapter registration race
Adapters can be looked up based on their id using i2c_get_adapter()
which takes a reference to the embedded struct device.
Make sure that the adapter (including its struct device) has been
initialised before adding it to the IDR to avoid accessing uninitialised
data which could, for example, lead to NULL-pointer dereferences or
use-after-free.
Note that the i2c-dev chardev, which is registered from a bus notifier,
currently uses i2c_get_adapter() so the adapter needs to be added to the
IDR before registration. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: PCM: Fix wait queue list corruption in snd_pcm_drain() on linked streams
snd_pcm_drain() uses init_waitqueue_entry which does not clear
entry.prev/next, and add_wait_queue with a conditional
remove_wait_queue that is skipped when to_check is no longer
in the group after concurrent UNLINK. The orphaned wait entry
remains on the unlinked substream sleep queue. On the next
drain iteration, add_wait_queue adds the entry to a new queue
while still linked on the old one, corrupting both lists. A
subsequent wake_up dereferences NULL at the func pointer
(mapped from the spinlock at offset 0 of the misinterpreted
wait_queue_head_t), causing a kernel panic.
Replace init_waitqueue_entry/add_wait_queue/conditional
remove_wait_queue with init_wait_entry/prepare_to_wait/
finish_wait. init_wait_entry clears prev/next via
INIT_LIST_HEAD on each iteration and sets
autoremove_wake_function which auto-removes the entry on
wake-up. finish_wait safely handles both the already-removed
and still-queued cases. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_exthdr: fix register tracking for F_PRESENT flag
nft_exthdr_init() passes user-controlled priv->len to
nft_parse_register_store(), which marks that many bytes in the
register bitmap as initialized. However, when NFT_EXTHDR_F_PRESENT
is set, the eval paths write only 1 byte (nft_reg_store8) or
4 bytes (*dest = 0 on TCP/DCCP error path). When len > 4,
registers beyond the first are never written, retaining
uninitialized stack data from nft_regs.
Bail out if userspace requests too much data when F_PRESENT is set. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nft_fib: fix stale stack leak via the OIFNAME register
For NFT_FIB_RESULT_OIFNAME the destination register is declared with
len = IFNAMSIZ (four 32-bit registers), but on the lookup-fail,
RTN_LOCAL and oif-mismatch paths nft_fib{4,6}_eval() only writes one
register via "*dest = 0". The remaining three registers are left as
whatever was on the stack in nft_do_chain()'s struct nft_regs, and a
downstream expression that loads the register span can leak that
uninitialised kernel stack to userspace.
The NFTA_FIB_F_PRESENT existence check has the same shape: it is only
meaningful for NFT_FIB_RESULT_OIF, yet it was accepted for any result type
while the eval stores a single byte via nft_reg_store8(), leaving the rest
of the declared span stale.
Fix both:
- replace the bare "*dest = 0" in the eval with nft_fib_store_result(),
which strscpy_pad()s the whole IFNAMSIZ for OIFNAME (and is already
used on the other early-return path), and
- restrict NFTA_FIB_F_PRESENT to NFT_FIB_RESULT_OIF and declare its
destination as a single u8, so the marked span matches the one byte
the eval writes. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: usblp: fix uninitialized heap leak via LPGETSTATUS ioctl
Just like in a previous problem in this driver, usblp_ctrl_msg() will
collapse the usb_control_msg() return value to 0/-errno, discarding the
actual number of bytes transferred.
Ideally that short command should be detected and error out, but many
printers are known to send "incorrect" responses back so we can't just
do that.
statusbuf is kmalloc(8) at probe time and never filled before the first
LPGETSTATUS ioctl.
usblp_read_status() requests 1 byte. If a malicious printer responds
with zero bytes, *statusbuf is one byte of stale kmalloc heap,
sign-extended into the local int status, which the LPGETSTATUS path then
copy_to_user()s directly to the ioctl caller.
Fix this all by just zapping out the memory buffer when allocated at
probe time. If a later call does a short read, the data will be
identical to what the device sent it the last time, so there is no
"leak" of information happening. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: usblp: fix heap leak in IEEE 1284 device ID via short response
usblp_ctrl_msg() collapses the usb_control_msg() return value to
0/-errno, discarding the actual number of bytes transferred. A broken
printer can complete the GET_DEVICE_ID control transfer short and the
driver has no way to know.
usblp_cache_device_id_string() reads the 2-byte big-endian length prefix
from the response and trusts it (clamped only to the buffer bounds).
The buffer is kmalloc(1024) at probe time. A device that sends exactly
two bytes (e.g. 0x03 0xFF, claiming a 1023-byte ID) leaves
device_id_string[2..1022] holding stale kmalloc heap.
That stale data is then exposed:
- via the ieee1284_id sysfs attribute (sprintf("%s", buf+2), truncated
at the first NUL in the stale heap), and
- via the IOCNR_GET_DEVICE_ID ioctl, which copy_to_user()s the full
claimed length regardless of NULs, up to 1021 bytes of uninitialized
heap, with the leak size chosen by the device.
Fix this up by just zapping the buffer with zeros before each request
sent to the device. |

ixgbevf: add missing negotiate_features op to Hyper-V ops table
Commit a7075f501bd3 ("ixgbevf: fix mailbox API compatibility by
negotiating supported features") added the .negotiate_features callback
to ixgbe_mac_operations and populated it in ixgbevf_mac_ops, but forgot
to add it to ixgbevf_hv_mac_ops. This leaves the function pointer NULL
on Hyper-V VMs.
During probe, ixgbevf_negotiate_api() calls ixgbevf_set_features(),
which unconditionally dereferences hw->mac.ops.negotiate_features().
On Hyper-V this results in a NULL pointer dereference:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ctnetlink: zero expect NAT fields when CTA_EXPECT_NAT absent
ctnetlink_alloc_expect() allocates expectations from a non-zeroing
slab cache via nf_ct_expect_alloc(). When CTA_EXPECT_NAT is not
present in the netlink message, saved_addr and saved_proto are
never initialized. Stale data from a previous slab occupant can
then be dumped to userspace by ctnetlink_exp_dump_expect(), which
checks these fields to decide whether to emit CTA_EXPECT_NAT.
The safe sibling nf_ct_expect_init(), used by the packet path,
explicitly zeroes these fields.
Zero saved_addr, saved_proto and dir in the else branch, guarded
by IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NF_NAT) since these fields only exist when
NAT is enabled.
Confirmed by priming the expect slab with NAT-bearing expectations,
freeing them, creating a new expectation without CTA_EXPECT_NAT,
and observing that the ctnetlink dump emits a spurious
CTA_EXPECT_NAT containing stale data from the prior allocation. |
| Vulnerability in the OpenSSH GSSAPI delta included in various Linux distributions. This vulnerability affects the GSSAPI patches added by various Linux distributions and does not affect the OpenSSH upstream project itself. The usage of sshpkt_disconnect() on an error, which does not terminate the process, allows an attacker to send an unexpected GSSAPI message type during the GSSAPI key exchange to the server, which will call the underlying function and continue the execution of the program without setting the related connection variables. As the variables are not initialized to NULL the code later accesses those uninitialized variables, accessing random memory, which could lead to undefined behavior. The recommended workaround is to use ssh_packet_disconnect() instead, which does terminate the process. The impact of the vulnerability depends heavily on the compiler flag hardening configuration. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nfnetlink_log: fix uninitialized padding leak in NFULA_PAYLOAD
__build_packet_message() manually constructs the NFULA_PAYLOAD netlink
attribute using skb_put() and skb_copy_bits(), bypassing the standard
nla_reserve()/nla_put() helpers. While nla_total_size(data_len) bytes
are allocated (including NLA alignment padding), only data_len bytes
of actual packet data are copied. The trailing nla_padlen(data_len)
bytes (1-3 when data_len is not 4-byte aligned) are never initialized,
leaking stale heap contents to userspace via the NFLOG netlink socket.
Replace the manual attribute construction with nla_reserve(), which
handles the tailroom check, header setup, and padding zeroing via
__nla_reserve(). The subsequent skb_copy_bits() fills in the payload
data on top of the properly initialized attribute. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: fix use of uninitialized rtp_addr in process_sdp
process_sdp() declares union nf_inet_addr rtp_addr on the stack and
passes it to the nf_nat_sip sdp_session hook after walking the SDP
media descriptions. However rtp_addr is only initialized inside the
media loop when a recognized media type with a non-zero port is found.
If the SDP body contains no m= lines, only inactive media sections
(m=audio 0 ...) or only unrecognized media types, rtp_addr is never
assigned. Despite that, the function still calls hooks->sdp_session()
with &rtp_addr, causing nf_nat_sdp_session() to format the stale stack
value as an IP address and rewrite the SDP session owner and connection
lines with it.
With CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO (default on most distributions) this
results in the session-level o= and c= addresses being rewritten to
0.0.0.0 for inactive SDP sessions. Without stack auto-init the
rewritten address is whatever happened to be on the stack.
Fix this by pre-initializing rtp_addr from the session-level connection
address (caddr) when available, and tracking via a have_rtp_addr flag
whether any valid address was established. Skip the sdp_session hook
entirely when no valid address exists. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: fix statistics allocation
The controller per-cpu statistics is not allocated until after the
controller has been registered with driver core, which leaves a window
where accessing the sysfs attributes can trigger a NULL-pointer
dereference.
Fix this by moving the statistics allocation to controller allocation
while tying its lifetime to that of the controller (rather than using
implicit devres). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: bridge: 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. Then, if neigh_suppress is enabled and an ICMPv6
Neighbor Discovery packet reaches the bridge, br_do_suppress_nd() will
dereference ipv6_stub->nd_tbl which is NULL, passing it to
neigh_lookup(). This causes a kernel NULL pointer dereference.

wifi: radiotap: reject radiotap with unknown bits
The radiotap parser is currently only used with the radiotap
namespace (not with vendor namespaces), but if the undefined
field 18 is used, the alignment/size is unknown as well. In
this case, iterator->_next_ns_data isn't initialized (it's
only set for skipping vendor namespaces), and syzbot points
out that we later compare against this uninitialized value.
Fix this by moving the rejection of unknown radiotap fields
down to after the in-namespace lookup, so it will really use
iterator->_next_ns_data only for vendor namespaces, even in
case undefined fields are present. |
