wifi: mt76: mt7921/mt7925: fix NULL dereference in CSA beacon
This patch is based on a BUG as reported by Bongani Hlope at
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260502125824.425d7159@bongani-mini.home.org.za/
When a channel-switch announcement (CSA) beacon is received,
cfg80211 queues a wiphy work item that eventually calls
mt7921_channel_switch_rx_beacon(). If the station disconnects
(or the channel context is otherwise torn down) between the
time the work is queued and the time it runs, the driver's
dev->new_ctx pointer can already have been cleared to NULL.
mt7921_channel_switch_rx_beacon() then dereferences new_ctx
unconditionally, triggering a NULL pointer dereference at
address 0x0:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
RIP: 0010:mt7921_channel_switch_rx_beacon+0x1f/0x100 [mt7921_common]
The same missing guard exists in mt7925_channel_switch_rx_beacon(),
which shares the same code pattern introduced by the same commit.
Add an early-return NULL check for dev->new_ctx in both
mt7921_channel_switch_rx_beacon() and
mt7925_channel_switch_rx_beacon(). When new_ctx is NULL there is
no pending channel switch to process, so returning immediately is
the correct and safe action.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: Fix hotplug-suspend race during reboot
During system reboot, cpufreq_suspend() is called via the
kernel_restart() -> device_shutdown() path. Unlike the normal system
suspend path, the reboot path does not call freeze_processes(), so
userspace processes and kernel threads remain active.
This allows CPU hotplug operations to run concurrently with
cpufreq_suspend(). The original code has no synchronization with CPU
hotplug, leading to a race condition where governor_data can be freed
by the hotplug path while cpufreq_suspend() is still accessing it,
resulting in a null pointer dereference:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference

Fix this by adding cpus_read_lock()/cpus_read_unlock() to
cpufreq_suspend() to block CPU hotplug operations while suspend is in
progress.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Bluetooth: hci_conn: Fix null ptr deref in hci_abort_conn()
hci_abort_conn() read hci_skb_event(hdev->sent_cmd) when a connection
was pending, but hdev->sent_cmd can be NULL while req_status is still
HCI_REQ_PEND, leading to a NULL pointer dereference and a general
protection fault from the hci_rx_work() receive path.
Instead of inspecting hdev->sent_cmd, track the in-flight create
connection command with a new per-connection HCI_CONN_CREATE flag and
route all cancellation through hci_cancel_connect_sync(), which
dispatches to a dedicated per-type cancel function. The create command
is in exactly one of two states: still queued, or in flight. The cancel
function holds cmd_sync_work_lock across the whole decision: the worker
takes this lock to dequeue every entry, so while it is held a queued
command cannot start running and an in-flight command cannot complete
and let the next command become pending. This keeps the flag test and
hci_cmd_sync_cancel() atomic with respect to the worker, so a queued
command is simply dequeued, and an in-flight command owned by this
connection is cancelled without the risk of cancelling an unrelated
command that became pending in the meantime. CIS uses the same flag
mechanism via HCI_CONN_CREATE_CIS but cannot be dequeued per-connection.
hci_acl_create_conn_sync() and hci_le_create_conn_sync() clear
HCI_CONN_CREATE after the create command completes, but the command
status handler can free conn via hci_conn_del() (for example when the
controller rejects the connection) while the worker is still blocked on
the connection complete event. Hold a reference on conn across the
create command so the flag can be cleared without a use-after-free. |

mm: shrinker: fix NULL pointer dereference in debugfs
shrinker_debugfs_add() creates both "count" and "scan" debugfs files
unconditionally.
That assumes every shrinker implements both count_objects() and
scan_objects(), which is not guaranteed. For example, the xen-backend
shrinker sets count_objects() but leaves scan_objects() NULL, so writing
to its scan file calls through a NULL function pointer and panics the
kernel:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: usb-audio: avoid kobject path lookup in DualSense match
The DualSense jack-detection input handler verifies that a matching input
device belongs to the same physical controller by building kobject path
strings for both the input device and the USB audio device, then comparing
the path prefix.
This was observed when a weak physical connection caused the controller
to rapidly disconnect and reconnect. During that repeated hotplug,
snd_dualsense_ih_match() can run while the controller's USB device is
being disconnected. kobject_get_path() walks ancestor kobjects and
dereferences their names; if the USB device kobject name is no longer
valid, this can fault in strlen():

The same ownership check can be done without building kobject path
strings. The input device is parented below the HID device, USB interface
and USB device, so walking the input device parent chain and comparing
against the mixer USB device preserves the check without dereferencing
kobject names during disconnect. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: ice1712: check snd_ctl_new1() return value
snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails. The
ice1712 driver calls snd_ctl_new1() without checking the return value
before dereferencing the pointer in multiple places (ice1712.c,
ice1724.c, aureon.c), which can lead to NULL pointer dereferences.
Add NULL checks after snd_ctl_new1() calls and return -ENOMEM if any
fails. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ALSA: es1938: check snd_ctl_new1() return value
snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails.
snd_es1938_mixer() does not check the return value before dereferencing
the pointer, which can lead to a NULL pointer dereference.
Add a NULL check after snd_ctl_new1() and return -ENOMEM if it fails. |

ALSA: ymfpci: check snd_ctl_new1() return value
snd_ctl_new1() can return NULL when memory allocation fails.
snd_ymfpci_create_spdif_controls() does not check the return value
before dereferencing kctl->id.device, which can lead to a NULL pointer
dereference.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: NFIT: core: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference
After commit 9b311b7313d6 ("ACPI: NFIT: Install Notify() handler before
getting NFIT table"), acpi_nfit_probe() installs an ACPI notify handler
for the NFIT device before checking the presence of the NFIT table. If
that table is not there, 0 is returned without allocating the acpi_desc
object and setting the driver data pointer of the NFIT device. If the
platform firmware triggers an NFIT_NOTIFY_UC_MEMORY_ERROR notification
on the NFIT device at that point, acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify() will
dereference a NULL pointer.
Prevent that from occurring by adding an acpi_desc check against NULL
to acpi_nfit_uc_error_notify(). |
| In Modem, there is a possible system crash due to improper input validation. This could lead to remote denial of service, if a UE has connected to a rogue base station controlled by the attacker, with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Patch ID: MOLY01826924; Issue ID: MSV-7301. |
| A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability for driver `GFAC_Sys_x64.sys` in Little Orbit GFAC allows a local attacker to cause a denial of service via crafted requests that trigger a system crash. |
| A null pointer dereference vulnerability exists in the Matter SDK (connectedhomeip) before 1.4.0, affecting the ReadRevisionAttribute function used in multiple clusters (Channel, Account Login, TargetNavigator, etc.). The function lacks proper validation of the delegate pointer before dereferencing. A remote unauthenticated attacker can exploit this issue by sending a crafted read request, causing the device to crash (denial of service). This issue has been confirmed in SDK version v1.4 (commit ab3d5ae). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mana: Add NULL guards in teardown path to prevent panic on attach failure
When queue allocation fails partway through, the error cleanup frees
and NULLs apc->tx_qp and apc->rxqs. Multiple teardown paths such as
mana_remove(), mana_change_mtu() recovery, and internal error handling
in mana_alloc_queues() can subsequently call into functions that
dereference these pointers without NULL checks:
- mana_chn_setxdp() dereferences apc->rxqs[0], causing a NULL pointer
dereference panic (CR2: 0000000000000000 at mana_chn_setxdp+0x26).
- mana_destroy_vport() iterates apc->rxqs without a NULL check.
- mana_fence_rqs() iterates apc->rxqs without a NULL check.
- mana_dealloc_queues() iterates apc->tx_qp without a NULL check.
Add NULL guards for apc->rxqs in mana_fence_rqs(),
mana_destroy_vport(), and before the mana_chn_setxdp() call. Add a
NULL guard for apc->tx_qp in mana_dealloc_queues() to skip TX queue
draining when TX queues were never allocated or already freed. |
| NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Apache NimBLE in LE Long Term Key Request event.
This requires disabled asserts (otherwise assert would trigger before NULL dereference) and bogus (or misbehaving) controller, thus severity is low.
This issue affects Apache NimBLE: through 1.9.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 1.10.0, which fixes the issue. |
| A NULL pointer dereference in the AP4_TkhdAtom::GetTrackId() function of Aleksoid1978 MPC-BE before commit 4341cb3 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted MP4 file. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Reject BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE creation if BPF LSM is uninitialized
When CONFIG_BPF_LSM=y is set, BPF inode storage maps
(BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE) are compiled into the kernel. However,
if the BPF LSM is not explicitly enabled at boot time (e.g. omitted
from the "lsm=" boot parameter), lsm_prepare() is never executed for
the BPF LSM.
Consequently, the BPF inode security blob offset
(bpf_lsm_blob_sizes.lbs_inode) is never initialized and remains at
its default compiled size of 8 bytes instead of being updated to a
valid offset past the reserved struct rcu_head (typically 16 bytes
or more).
When a privileged user creates and updates a BPF_MAP_TYPE_INODE_STORAGE
map, bpf_inode() evaluates inode->i_security + 8. This erroneously
aliases the struct rcu_head.func callback pointer at the beginning
of the inode->i_security blob. During subsequent map element cleanup
or inode destruction, writing NULL to owner_storage clears the queued
RCU callback pointer. When rcu_do_batch() later executes the queued
callback, it attempts an instruction fetch at address 0x0, triggering
an immediate kernel panic.
Fix this by introducing a global bpf_lsm_initialized boolean flag
marked with __ro_after_init. Set this flag to true inside bpf_lsm_init()
when the LSM framework successfully registers the BPF LSM. Gate map
allocation in inode_storage_map_alloc() on this flag, returning
-EOPNOTSUPP if the BPF LSM is in turn uninitialized.
This fail-fast approach prevents userspace from allocating inode
storage maps when the supporting BPF LSM infrastructure is absent,
avoiding zombie map states. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: fail recovery on a committed log item with no regions
If the first op of a transaction is a bare transaction header
(len == sizeof(struct xfs_trans_header)), xlog_recover_add_to_trans()
adds an item but no region, leaving it on r_itemq with ri_cnt == 0 and
ri_buf == NULL.
The header can be split across op records, so later ops may still add
regions; the item is only invalid if the transaction commits with none.
The runtime commit path never emits such a transaction, so this only
happens on a crafted log. It came from an AI-assisted code audit of the
recovery parser.
xlog_recover_reorder_trans() calls ITEM_TYPE() on the item, which reads
*(unsigned short *)item->ri_buf[0].iov_base and faults on the NULL
ri_buf. Reject it there, before the commit handlers that also read
ri_buf[0].

block: Avoid mounting the bdev pseudo-filesystem in userspace
The bdev pseudo-filesystem is an internal kernel filesystem with which
userspace should not interfere. Unregister it so that userspace cannot
even attempt to mount it.
This fixes a bug [1] that occurs when attempting to access files,
because the system call move_mount() uses pointers declared in the
inode_operations structure, which for the bdev pseudo-filesystem
are always equal to 0. `inode->i_op = &empty_iops;`

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
NFSv4/flexfiles: reject zero filehandle version count
ff_layout_alloc_lseg() decodes the filehandle-version array count
from the flexfiles layout body. The value is used as the count for
kzalloc_objs(), and the current code only rejects NULL.
A zero count yields ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which can be stored in
dss_info->fh_versions even though later flexfiles paths assume that at
least one filehandle version exists.
Reject fh_count == 0 before the allocation, matching the existing zero
version_count validation in the flexfiles GETDEVICEINFO parser.

slimbus: qcom-ngd-ctrl: Register callbacks after creating the ngd
When the remoteproc starts in parallel with the NGD driver being probed,
or the remoteproc is already up when the PDR lookup is being registered,
or in the theoretical event that we get an interrupt from the hardware,
these callbacks will operate on uninitialized data. This result in
issues to boot the affected boards.
One such example can be seen in the following fault, where
qcom_slim_ngd_ssr_pdr_notify() schedules work on the NULL ngd_up_work.
