CVSS v3.1 |
| Tor before 0.4.9.7 has a NULL pointer dereference when a CERT cell is received out of order, aka TROVE-2026-006. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ext4: publish jinode after initialization
ext4_inode_attach_jinode() publishes ei->jinode to concurrent users.
It used to set ei->jinode before jbd2_journal_init_jbd_inode(),
allowing a reader to observe a non-NULL jinode with i_vfs_inode
still unset.
The fast commit flush path can then pass this jinode to
jbd2_wait_inode_data(), which dereferences i_vfs_inode->i_mapping and
may crash.
Below is the crash I observe:
```

Fix this by initializing the jbd2_inode first.
Use smp_wmb() and WRITE_ONCE() to publish ei->jinode after
initialization. Readers use READ_ONCE() to fetch the pointer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xfs: avoid dereferencing log items after push callbacks
After xfsaild_push_item() calls iop_push(), the log item may have been
freed if the AIL lock was dropped during the push. Background inode
reclaim or the dquot shrinker can free the log item while the AIL lock
is not held, and the tracepoints in the switch statement dereference
the log item after iop_push() returns.
Fix this by capturing the log item type, flags, and LSN before calling
xfsaild_push_item(), and introducing a new xfs_ail_push_class trace
event class that takes these pre-captured values and the ailp pointer
instead of the log item pointer. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
EDAC/mc: Fix error path ordering in edac_mc_alloc()
When the mci->pvt_info allocation in edac_mc_alloc() fails, the error path
will call put_device() which will end up calling the device's release
function.
However, the init ordering is wrong such that device_initialize() happens
*after* the failed allocation and thus the device itself and the release
function pointer are not initialized yet when they're called:
MCE: In-kernel MCE decoding enabled.
------------[ cut here ]------------
kobject: '(null)': is not initialized, yet kobject_put() is being called.

Reorder the calling sequence so that the device is initialized and thus the

This was found by Claude while reviewing another EDAC patch. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/smp: Add check for kcalloc() failure in parse_thread_groups()
As kcalloc() may fail, check its return value to avoid a NULL pointer
dereference when passing it to of_property_read_u32_array(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs/buffer: add alert in try_to_free_buffers() for folios without buffers
try_to_free_buffers() can be called on folios with no buffers attached
when filemap_release_folio() is invoked on a folio belonging to a mapping
with AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS set but no release_folio operation defined.
In such cases, folio_needs_release() returns true because of the
AS_RELEASE_ALWAYS flag, but the folio has no private buffer data. This
causes try_to_free_buffers() to call drop_buffers() on a folio with no
buffers, leading to a null pointer dereference.
Adding a check in try_to_free_buffers() to return early if the folio has no
buffers attached, with WARN_ON_ONCE() to alert about the misconfiguration.
This provides defensive hardening. |
| Crash in sharkd 4.6.0 to 4.6.4 and 4.4.0 to 4.4.14 allows denial of service |
| A denial-of-service vulnerability has been identified in the libsoup HTTP client library. This flaw can be triggered when a libsoup client receives a 401 (Unauthorized) HTTP response containing a specifically crafted domain parameter within the WWW-Authenticate header. Processing this malformed header can lead to a crash of the client application using libsoup. An attacker could exploit this by setting up a malicious HTTP server. If a user's application using the vulnerable libsoup library connects to this malicious server, it could result in a denial-of-service. Successful exploitation requires tricking a user's client application into connecting to the attacker's malicious server. |
| A flaw was found in FFmpeg’s ALS audio decoder, where it does not properly check for memory allocation failures. This can cause the application to crash when processing certain malformed audio files. While it does not lead to data theft or system control, it can be used to disrupt services and cause a denial of service. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs: check contexts->nr before accessing contexts_arr[0]
Multiple sysfs command paths dereference contexts_arr[0] without first
verifying that kdamond->contexts->nr == 1. A user can set nr_contexts to
0 via sysfs while DAMON is running, causing NULL pointer dereferences.
In more detail, the issue can be triggered by privileged users like
below.
First, start DAMON and make contexts directory empty
(kdamond->contexts->nr == 0).
# damo start
# cd /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/kdamonds/0
# echo 0 > contexts/nr_contexts
Then, each of below commands will cause the NULL pointer dereference.
# echo update_schemes_stats > state
# echo update_schemes_tried_regions > state
# echo update_schemes_tried_bytes > state
# echo update_schemes_effective_quotas > state
# echo update_tuned_intervals > state
Guard all commands (except OFF) at the entry point of
damon_sysfs_handle_cmd(). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/sysfs: check contexts->nr in repeat_call_fn
damon_sysfs_repeat_call_fn() calls damon_sysfs_upd_tuned_intervals(),
damon_sysfs_upd_schemes_stats(), and
damon_sysfs_upd_schemes_effective_quotas() without checking contexts->nr.
If nr_contexts is set to 0 via sysfs while DAMON is running, these
functions dereference contexts_arr[0] and cause a NULL pointer
dereference. Add the missing check.
For example, the issue can be reproduced using DAMON sysfs interface and
DAMON user-space tool (damo) [1] like below.
$ sudo damo start --refresh_interval 1s
$ echo 0 | sudo tee \
/sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/kdamonds/0/contexts/nr_contexts |
| A NULL pointer dereference in mod_dav_lock in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.66 and earlier may allow an attacker to crash the server with a malicious request.mod_dav_lock is not used internally by mod_dav or mod_dav_fs.
The only known use-case for mod_dav_lock was mod_dav_svn from Apache Subversion earlier than version 1.2.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.4.66, which fixes this issue, or remove mod_dav_lock. |

| IEEE 802.11 protocol dissector crash in Wireshark 4.6.0 to 4.6.4 |
| A NULL pointer dereference in the mod_authn_socache in Apache HTTP Server 2.4.66 and earlier allows an unauthenticated remote user to crash a child process in a caching forward proxy configuration.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 2.4.67, which fixes this issue. |
| NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in ASR1903 in ASR Lapwing_Linux on Linux (ims_client modules) allows Pointer Manipulation.
This vulnerability is associated with program files sip/utils/src/sipuri.c. |
| A null pointer dereference vulnerability exists in the RTSP service of the MERCURY MIPC252W 1.0.5 Build 230306 Rel.79931n. During the processing of a SETUP request for the path rtsp://<IP>:554/stream1/track2, the device fails to properly validate the Transport header field. When this header is improperly constructed, the RTSP service can dereference a NULL pointer during request parsing. Successful exploitation causes the device to crash and automatically reboot. |
| An issue in Assimp v.6.0.2 allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via the FBXMeshGeometry.cpp, MeshGeometry::MeshGeometry() |
| strongSwan versions 4.5.0 prior to 6.0.5 contain an integer underflow vulnerability in the EAP-TTLS AVP parser that allows unauthenticated remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending crafted AVP data with invalid length fields during IKEv2 authentication. Attackers can exploit the failure to validate AVP length fields before subtraction to trigger excessive memory allocation or NULL pointer dereference, crashing the charon IKE daemon. |
| A flaw was found in libarchive. A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability exists in the ACL parsing logic, specifically within the archive_acl_from_text_nl() function. When processing a malformed ACL string (such as a bare "d" or "default" tag without subsequent fields), the function fails to perform adequate validation before advancing the pointer. An attacker can exploit this by providing a maliciously crafted archive, causing an application utilizing the libarchive API (such as bsdtar) to crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). |
