GHSA-J38M-3GRR-2P9J
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-05-13 01:24 – Updated: 2022-05-13 01:24The irda_bind function in net/irda/af_irda.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.36-rc3-next-20100901 does not properly handle failure of the irda_open_tsap function, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and panic) and possibly have unspecified other impact via multiple unsuccessful calls to bind on an AF_IRDA (aka PF_IRDA) socket.

GHSA-J397-M7MX-JCV9
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-02-09 12:30 – Updated: 2025-02-11 18:31In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86: lenovo-yoga-tab2-pro-1380-fastcharger: fix serdev race
The yt2_1380_fc_serdev_probe() function calls devm_serdev_device_open() before setting the client ops via serdev_device_set_client_ops(). This ordering can trigger a NULL pointer dereference in the serdev controller's receive_buf handler, as it assumes serdev->ops is valid when SERPORT_ACTIVE is set.
This is similar to the issue fixed in commit 5e700b384ec1 ("platform/chrome: cros_ec_uart: properly fix race condition") where devm_serdev_device_open() was called before fully initializing the device.
Fix the race by ensuring client ops are set before enabling the port via devm_serdev_device_open().
Note, serdev_device_set_baudrate() and serdev_device_set_flow_control() calls should be after the devm_serdev_device_open() call.

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-02-04 20:36 – Updated: 2026-02-04 20:36If the Buf struct is dereferenced immediately after calling new() or default() on the Buf struct, a null pointer is passed to the unsafe function slice::from_raw_parts. According to the safety section documentation of the function, data must be non-null and aligned even for zero-length slices or slices of ZSTs.

In the prueth_probe() function, if one of the calls to emac_phy_connect() fails due to of_phy_connect() returning NULL, then the subsequent call to phy_attached_info() will dereference a NULL pointer.

Mitigation MIT-56
For any pointers that could have been modified or provided from a function that can return NULL, check the pointer for NULL before use. When working with a multithreaded or otherwise asynchronous environment, ensure that proper locking APIs are used to lock before the check, and unlock when it has finished [REF-1484].
Mitigation
Select a programming language that is not susceptible to these issues.
Mitigation
Check the results of all functions that return a value and verify that the value is non-null before acting upon it.
Mitigation
Identify all variables and data stores that receive information from external sources, and apply input validation to make sure that they are only initialized to expected values.
Mitigation
Explicitly initialize all variables and other data stores, either during declaration or just before the first usage.
No CAPEC attack patterns related to this CWE.
