CVE-2025-38328

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: jffs2: check jffs2_prealloc_raw_node_refs() result in few other places Fuzzing hit another invalid pointer dereference due to the lack of checking whether jffs2_prealloc_raw_node_refs() completed successfully. Subsequent logic implies that the node refs have been allocated. Handle that. The code is ready for propagating the error upwards.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: jffs2: comprobar el resultado de jffs2_prealloc_raw_node_refs() en algunos otros lugares. El fuzzing detectó otra desreferencia de puntero no válida debido a la falta de comprobación de si jffs2_prealloc_raw_node_refs() se completó correctamente. La lógica posterior implica que las referencias de nodo se han asignado. Se solucionó el problema. El código está listo para propagar el error hacia arriba.
