CVSS v3.1 |
| IBM AIX 7.2, and 7.3 and IBM PowerVM VIOS 4.1 could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service due to a NULL pointer dereference. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vhost-scsi: reject feature changes after endpoint
vhost_scsi_setup_vq_cmds() runs from VHOST_SCSI_SET_ENDPOINT and allocates
each command's protection scatterlist array (prot_sgl) according to the
acknowledged VIRTIO_SCSI_F_T10_PI bit. The command pools are not rebuilt
when VHOST_SET_FEATURES changes that bit later.
Although virtio feature bits must not change after feature negotiation,
vhost_scsi_set_features() currently accepts such a request after the
endpoint is active and updates acked_features. Enabling T10-PI after
endpoint setup therefore leaves prot_sgl NULL while the I/O path follows
the new feature bit.
For a 129-page protection payload, vhost_scsi_mapal() passes the missing
first chunk to sg_alloc_table_chained():
sg_alloc_table_chained(table, 129, first_chunk=NULL,
nents_first_chunk=inline_sg_cnt)
sg_pool_index() then hits:
BUG_ON(nents > SG_CHUNK_SIZE); /* 129 > 128 */
The kernel reported the following call trace and register state:

VHOST_F_LOG_ALL is a vhost-specific runtime feature and remains the only
exception.
Reject changes to any feature other than VHOST_F_LOG_ALL while the
endpoint is active. This preserves the existing runtime log toggle while
preventing feature-dependent command resources and data-path state from
becoming inconsistent. Userspace must clear the endpoint before changing
any other negotiated feature and set the endpoint up again afterward. |
| A vulnerability has been found in BusyBox up to 1.30.1. This vulnerability affects unknown code of the file networking/wget.c of the component FEATURE_WGET_TIMEOUT Handler. Such manipulation of the argument -T leads to null pointer dereference. Local access is required to approach this attack. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. The name of the patch is 83a40bf7a93c8ac093d33ab452222dd5b9eb57ff. A patch should be applied to remediate this issue. |
| The Hearing Access Service (HAS) GATT server in subsys/bluetooth/audio/has.c installs a connection-callback set unconditionally via BT_CONN_CB_DEFINE, so security_changed() runs for every connection that establishes security even before the application has called bt_has_register(). The service attribute pointers hearing_aid_features_attr, preset_control_point_attr, and active_preset_index_attr remain NULL until bt_has_register() resolves them and sets has.registered.
With CONFIG_BT_SETTINGS, settings_set_cb() restores each bonded client's persisted context at boot and unconditionally sets context->flags to BONDED_CLIENT_INIT_FLAGS (non-zero). When a previously bonded peer reconnects and re-establishes security during the startup window before bt_has_register() has been called, security_changed() sees the non-zero flags and schedules notify_work_handler, which calls bt_gatt_is_subscribed() with a still-NULL attribute pointer. That triggers an assertion (__ASSERT(attr, ...) in bt_gatt_is_subscribed()), or a NULL dereference of attr->uuid when assertions are compiled out.
The result is a remotely triggerable (Bluetooth, adjacent) crash of the HAS peripheral. Exploitation requires the peer to have previously bonded with the device and to reconnect within the boot-time race window before the application registers the service; a peer that reconnects persistently can prolong the outage. Impact is denial of service only, with no memory corruption or information disclosure.
The fix adds an early if (!has.registered) { return; } guard in security_changed(), so no notification work is scheduled until the GATT service is registered and its attribute pointers are valid. |
| Multiple DrayTek VigorSwitch models contain a pre-authentication null pointer dereference vulnerability in the setget.cgi interface. The vulnerability is caused by missing validation when the pass field is absent. A remote attacker can trigger this vulnerability via a crafted request to crash the service and cause a denial of service. |
| Multiple DrayTek VigorSwitch models contain a null pointer dereference vulnerability in the formlogout function. The vulnerability is caused by missing checks for an empty or absent Cookie header before string handling. A remote attacker can trigger this vulnerability via a crafted request to crash the service and cause a denial of service. Exploitation requires valid administrative credentials for the device's web management interface. |
| A vulnerability was determined in ggml-org llama.cpp bec4772f6. This affects the function rpc_server::graph_compute of the file ggml/src/ggml-rpc/ggml-rpc.cpp of the component ggml-RPC Server. Executing a manipulation can lead to null pointer dereference. The attack may be launched remotely. The pull request to fix this issue awaits acceptance. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
selinux: avoid sk_socket dereference in selinux_sctp_bind_connect()
selinux_sctp_bind_connect() dereferences sk->sk_socket to pass a
struct socket * to selinux_socket_bind() and
selinux_socket_connect_helper(). However, when the hook is invoked
from the ASCONF softirq path (sctp_process_asconf), there is no file
reference guaranteeing that sk->sk_socket is non-NULL. The setsockopt
callers (bindx, connectx, set_primary, sendmsg connect) hold a file
reference and are not affected.
Both selinux_socket_bind() and selinux_socket_connect_helper()
immediately resolve sock->sk, never using the struct socket * for
anything else. Refactor the inner logic into helpers that take a
struct sock * directly so that selinux_sctp_bind_connect() never needs
to touch sk->sk_socket at all. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: mtk-vcodec: potential null pointer deference in SCP
The return value of devm_kzalloc() needs to be checked to avoid
NULL pointer deference. This is similar to CVE-2022-3113. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bnge: Fix NULL pointer dereference in aux device release
If allocation of auxr_dev fails during auxiliary device setup, the error
path calls auxiliary_device_uninit(), which eventually invokes
bnge_aux_dev_release().
The release callback unconditionally dereferences aux_priv->auxr_dev->pdev
to retrieve the parent bnge_dev. Since auxr_dev has not yet been allocated
on this failure path, the dereference results in a NULL pointer exception
Retrieve the parent bnge_dev from the auxiliary device's parent instead of
auxr_dev, and free auxr_dev only when it was successfully allocated. This
allows the release callback to correctly clean up partially initialized
auxiliary devices. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix NULL pointer dereference in module event cache removal
A module-only event filter such as ":mod:foo" is cached with a NULL
event_mod->match when foo has not been loaded. If a later write tries to
remove a specific match from the same module, remove_cache_mod() passes
the NULL cached match to strcmp(), causing a NULL pointer dereference.
The issue can be reproduced from userspace:
echo ':mod:trace_events_kunit_missing' > /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event
echo '!foo_bar:mod:trace_events_kunit_missing' >> /sys/kernel/tracing/set_event
The second write must be a concatenation (">>") to not include O_TRUNC as
that would cause ftrace_clear_events() to clear the cached modules lines.
The crash was reproduced on x86_64 QEMU while KUnit workers contended on
the event tracing path:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ASoC: qcom: q6apm: fix NULL pointer dereference in graph_callback
When q6apm_free_fragments() is called it frees rx_data.buf/tx_data.buf
and sets them to NULL under graph->lock. A late DSP buffer-done response
can race with this: graph_callback() passes the !graph->ar_graph guard
(not yet NULL), acquires the lock, but then dereferences a now-NULL buf
pointer to read buf[token].phys, crashing at virtual address 0x10.
Add a NULL check for buf inside the mutex-protected section in both the
write-done (DATA_CMD_RSP_WR_SH_MEM_EP_DATA_BUFFER_DONE_V2) and
read-done (DATA_CMD_RSP_RD_SH_MEM_EP_DATA_BUFFER_V2) handlers and bail
out cleanly if buffers have already been freed.
This problem is only shown up recently while apr bus was updated to
process the commands per service rather from single global queue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xprtrdma: Initialize re_id before removal registration
rpcrdma_create_id() registers ep->re_rn with the rpcrdma ib_client
before returning the new rdma_cm_id to rpcrdma_ep_create(). However
rpcrdma_ep_create() currently stores that pointer in ep->re_id only
after rpcrdma_create_id() returns.
A local administrator can race an NFS/RDMA mount against RDMA device
removal. If rpcrdma_remove_one() observes the just-registered
notification before rpcrdma_ep_create() assigns ep->re_id,
rpcrdma_ep_removal_done() calls trace_xprtrdma_device_removal(NULL).
The tracepoint dereferences id->device->name and copies
id->route.addr.dst_addr, so the callback can crash the kernel with a
NULL pointer dereference.
Store the rdma_cm_id in ep->re_id immediately before publishing
ep->re_rn. The existing error path still destroys the id directly if
registration fails; ep is then freed by the caller without using
ep->re_id. Remove the later duplicate assignment in rpcrdma_ep_create(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kernfs: link kn to its parent before the LSM init hook
After commit 12e9e3cd03b5 ("simpe_xattr: use per-sb cache"),
kernfs_xattr_set() and kernfs_xattr_get() compute the cache via
kernfs_root(kn) before any other check. kernfs_root(kn) walks
kn->__parent first and falls back to kn->dir.root, both of which are
NULL on a freshly kmem_cache_zalloc()'d kn. kn->__parent was being set
in kernfs_new_node() after __kernfs_new_node() returned, and kn->dir.root
is set even later by kernfs_create_dir_ns() / kernfs_create_empty_dir().
The LSM kernfs_init_security hook is invoked from inside
__kernfs_new_node(), before either field has been initialized.
selinux_kernfs_init_security() ends with kernfs_xattr_set(kn,
XATTR_NAME_SELINUX, ...). kernfs_root(kn) then returns NULL, and
&((struct kernfs_root *)NULL)->xa_cache evaluates to
offsetof(struct kernfs_root, xa_cache) which faults:

Reproduces deterministically at PID 1 (systemd) on an SELinux-enabled
distro. The first cgroup mkdir under /sys/fs/cgroup with a labelled
parent panics the kernel.
The LSM hook's contract is that the kn_dir argument is the parent of
the new kn, so kn->__parent should already point at kn_dir when the
hook runs. Move kernfs_get(parent) and rcu_assign_pointer of
kn->__parent from kernfs_new_node() into __kernfs_new_node() right
before the security hook, and unwind the parent reference on the
err_out4 path. kernfs_root(kn) then takes its parent branch during
the hook and returns parent->dir.root, which is the correct root.
This also closes the same-shape latent bug in kernfs_xattr_get() (which
today is hidden only by kernfs_iattrs_noalloc() returning NULL on a
fresh kn). |
| Incus is a system container and virtual machine manager. Prior to version 7.1.0, `(*backend).CreateCustomVolumeFromBackup` in `internal/server/storage/backend.go` contains an unguarded `*time.Time` dereference on the `ExpiresAt` field of every volume-snapshot entry in an imported custom-volume backup. An authenticated user with `can_create_storage_volumes` permission on any project can crash the `incusd` daemon by uploading a backup tarball whose `volume_snapshots[*].expires_at` field is absent. This is a sibling-field variant of GHSA-r7w7-mmxr-47r9 (CVE-2026-40197). Commit `985a1dedf9f3e7ba729c93b654905ed510de25c2` added `if s == nil` at the top of the loop body, but did not guard the adjacent `*snapshot.ExpiresAt` deref 19 lines later. Every other consumer of `Config.VolumeSnapshots[i].ExpiresAt` in this same file already gates the deref with a nil-check — the asymmetric guard is the bug. Version 7.1.0 contains an updated patch. |

uprobes: Fix NULL pointer dereference in hprobe_expire()
Forking a task that has a pending uretprobe can oops the kernel with a

| A NULL
pointer dereference vulnerability exists in the HTTP request parsing
functionality of
TL-MR6400 v7. An unauthenticated remote attacker can
trigger the vulnerability by sending a specially crafted HTTP request
containing a malformed session cookie header.
Successful
exploitation may cause the HTTP service process to crash, resulting in a
denial-of-service condition and temporary loss of management or CGI
functionality until service recovery. |
| Incus is a system container and virtual machine manager. Prior to version 7.1.0, `(*backend).CreateInstanceFromBackup` in `internal/server/storage/backend.go` contains a nil-pointer dereference that an authenticated user with permission to create instances in any project can trigger remotely by uploading a crafted backup tarball. The Incus daemon panics and the process crashes, causing denial of service to every project on that cluster member. This is a sibling of `GHSA-fwj8-62r8-8p8m`, `GHSA-r7w7-mmxr-47r9`, and `GHSA-x5r6-jr56-89pv` (all assigned 2026-05-04). Those patches added guards on adjacent fields of the same `backup/config.Config` struct; the `Volume` field on the instance-import path was missed. Version 7.1.0 contains an updated patch. |
