CVSS v3.1 |
| A NULL pointer dereference in the illumos Network Auto-Magic daemon (nwamd) allows a local user to crash the daemon. nwamd_door_switch() in usr/src/cmd/cmd-inet/lib/nwamd/door_if.c writes to the caller's request structure before checking that a request was supplied, and before checking the caller's credentials. Because the nwamd door at /etc/svc/volatile/nwam/nwam_door is accessible to all local users, an unprivileged user can issue a door_call() with no argument data to crash nwamd; repeated calls place the svc:/network/physical:nwam service into maintenance, stopping automatic network configuration. nwamd runs only when svc:/network/physical:nwam is enabled, which is not the default. The flaw has existed since 2010 (illumos-gate commit 6ba597c5), and affects any illumos distribution prior to illumos-gate commit 0f1064d9. |
| A flaw was found in libhangul. When parsing Hanja dictionary files, the library fails to verify that an entry contains a valid value alongside its key. By providing a specially crafted dictionary file to an application that queries it, an attacker can trigger an unexpected application crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). |
| MIT Kerberos 5 (krb5) through 1.22.2 contains a NULL pointer dereference in make_cred_list() in rd_cred.c that allows authenticated Kerberos clients to crash services by sending mismatched KRB-CRED arrays. Attackers can send forwarded credentials with more tickets than ticket_info entries through gss_accept_sec_context() to crash GSS-API acceptor services, causing denial of service. |
| A flaw was found in CUPS. When processing embedded job ticket comments within documents, the service improperly handles specific IPP attributes, causing an unhandled null pointer dereference. An unauthenticated attacker permitted to submit jobs to a shared printer queue can send a crafted Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) request to crash the print daemon, resulting in a temporary Denial of Service (DoS) for all printing services. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
bpf: Reject dev-bound-only programs on other devices
__bpf_offload_dev_match() falls back to comparing offdev pointers after an
exact netdev mismatch. Bound-only programs normally have NULL offdevs, so
unrelated netdevs compare equal. A bound-only program on an
offload-registered netdev can instead inherit a real offdev and match a
sibling port. With CAP_BPF and CAP_NET_ADMIN, a caller can use
bpf(BPF_LINK_CREATE) with a different target ifindex to run metadata kfuncs
specialized for the bound driver on the target driver's xdp_buff. Running a
veth-bound program on tun reads beyond tun's bare stack xdp_buff as a
veth_xdp_buff.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: ip6t_rpfilter: reject routes without inet6_dev
ip6_route_lookup() can return an error-free route whose rt6i_idev is
NULL. Lowering an external nexthop device's MTU below IPV6_MIN_MTU tears
down its inet6_dev while fib6_ifdown() leaves routes using nexthop objects
in the FIB. An unprivileged user can construct this state with rtnetlink
in a private user and network namespace, then trigger a NULL dereference
through an IPv6 rpfilter lookup:

Reject routes without an inet6_dev immediately after lookup. Such routes
are not eligible for reverse-path filtering, and the check protects all
later rt6i_idev dereferences. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: reject IDR error pointers when deleting actions
tcf_action_delete() drops the reference held by its lookup before calling
tcf_idr_delete_index() with the saved action index. An unlocked
classifier can remove that action and reserve the same IDR slot with
ERR_PTR(-EBUSY) in between.
tcf_idr_delete_index() only checks the lookup result for NULL. It
therefore treats the reservation as a tc_action and dereferences
tcfa_bindcnt. A hardware execution breakpoint was used to schedule the
interleaving without changing the kernel source. KASAN reported this
decoded trace:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception
R15 contains ERR_PTR(-EBUSY), and adding the tcfa_bindcnt offset produces
the address in R13. With the guard applied, the same reproducer returned
-ENOENT without a KASAN report or panic. Treat error pointers as absent
and return -ENOENT. |
| On affected Arista Wi-Fi access points with Captive Portal enabled, an unauthenticated wireless client connected to a captive-portal-enabled SSID can crash the portal service with a crafted HTTP request. The service automatically restarts, but a sustained low-rate attack can cause a persistent denial of service of the captive portal. Remote code execution is not possible. |
| A flaw was found in m17n-lib. A partial failure during library initialization can leave an internal driver pointer uninitialized. Under specific error conditions, such as system resource exhaustion or database corruption, an application attempting to open an input method dereferences this null pointer without proper validation. This issue causes the application to crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS). |
| A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in the Win8ScreenDriver component of GlavSoft TightVNC Server for Windows before 2.8.88 allows an attacker to crash the server, causing a denial of service. When re-initialization of the DXGI Desktop Duplication driver fails in applyNewScreenProperties() (for example after a GPU reset, display hot-plug or session change), m_drvImpl is left NULL and is subsequently dereferenced without a check by executeDetection(), getScreenBuffer(), grabFb(), getScreenPropertiesChanged() and getCursorPosition(). |
| OpenPrinting CUPS before 2.4.20 contains a NULL pointer dereference in cupsdCheckJobs() when a job marked job-held-on-create refers to a temporary printer that has been automatically deleted. Temporary-printer cleanup can remove the destination without canceling its held jobs, and the scheduler dereferences the NULL result of cupsdFindDest() while checking holding_new_jobs. This terminates cupsd and interrupts all queues managed by that process. In some plausible scenarios, an unprivileged submission can trigger this. |
| OpenPrinting CUPS before 2.4.20 contains a NULL pointer dereference caused by repeated IPP group tags in job-creation requests. IPP parsing creates unnamed separator attributes with IPP_TAG_ZERO, but add_job() converts these separators to IPP_TAG_JOB. During job startup, get_options()/ipp_length() subsequently calls strlen() on a NULL attribute name, terminating cupsd and disrupting all queues. A single crafted Print-Job request can trigger the crash when the client can reach the scheduler and submit jobs to an accepting, enabled queue supporting the submitted document format. Anonymous submission is possible when permitted by listener and access-control configuration. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: Skip KFD mapping clear before initialization
amdgpu_amdkfd_clear_kfd_mapping() assumes that a non-NULL kfd_dev
has a fully populated node array. This is not true when KFD device
initialization fails after probe.
For example, kgd2kfd_device_init() sets num_nodes before checking
PCIe atomics support. On Polaris systems without the required atomics,
it returns before allocating nodes[0], but the kfd_dev remains attached
to the amdgpu device. A later GPU reset then dereferences nodes[0]->id.
Require the authoritative KFD initialization flag before walking the
node array, matching the existing KFD reset and teardown paths.

| SumatraPDF is a multi-format reader for Windows. In 3.6.1 and earlier, FrameOnCommand() handles CmdExec by passing a null current-tab pointer to RunWithExe(), which dereferences WindowTab::filePath. A local process in the same interactive Windows session, at an integrity level greater than or equal to SumatraPDF's under Windows UIPI, can dispatch CmdExec over DDE or WM_COPYDATA while no document tab is open, causing abrupt process termination and loss of unsaved state. No broader impact is claimed beyond the advisory-supported conditions. No fixed version is available as of this review. |
| NULL Pointer Dereference in function vim_regexec_string at regexp.c:2733 in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 8.2.4938. NULL Pointer Dereference in function vim_regexec_string at regexp.c:2733 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted input. |
| NULL Pointer Dereference in function vim_regexec_string at regexp.c:2729 in GitHub repository vim/vim prior to 8.2.4901. NULL Pointer Dereference in function vim_regexec_string at regexp.c:2729 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a crafted input. |
| A race condition in the Linux kernel before 5.5.7 involving VT_RESIZEX could lead to a NULL pointer dereference and general protection fault. |
| There's a flaw in bfd_pef_parse_function_stubs of bfd/pef.c in binutils in versions prior to 2.34 which could allow an attacker who is able to submit a crafted file to be processed by objdump to cause a NULL pointer dereference. The greatest threat of this flaw is to application availability. |
| An h2c direct connection to Apache Tomcat 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.0-M6, 9.0.0.M5 to 9.0.36 and 8.5.1 to 8.5.56 did not release the HTTP/1.1 processor after the upgrade to HTTP/2. If a sufficient number of such requests were made, an OutOfMemoryException could occur leading to a denial of service. |
| MIT krb5 through 1.22.2 contains a NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in the KDC's get_pac_princ_with_realm() that returns success while leaving the client principal NULL on malformed names. A malicious or compromised cross-realm trusted KDC can send an S4U2Proxy request with a PAC carrying a malformed client name to crash krb5kdc and deny authentication. |
