Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bcache: fix NULL pointer in cache_set_flush()

  1. LINE#1794 - LINE#1887 is some codes about function of bch_cache_set_alloc().
  2. LINE#2078 - LINE#2142 is some codes about function of register_cache_set().
  3. register_cache_set() will call bch_cache_set_alloc() in LINE#2098.

(1) If LINE#1860 - LINE#1874 is true, then do 'goto err'(LINE#1875) and call bch_cache_set_unregister()(LINE#1885). (2) As (1) return NULL(LINE#1886), LINE#2098 - LINE#2100 would return. (3) As (2) has returned, LINE#2128 - LINE#2129 would do not give the value to c->cache[], it means that c->cache[] is NULL.

LINE#1624 - LINE#1665 is some codes about function of cache_set_flush(). As (1), in LINE#1885 call bch_cache_set_unregister() ---> bch_cache_set_stop() ---> closure_queue() -.-> cache_set_flush() (as below LINE#1624)

GHSA-C783-64QQ-77VX

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-02-14 18:30 – Updated: 2026-03-17 21:31
VLAI
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nvmet: fix race in nvmet_bio_done() leading to NULL pointer dereference

There is a race condition in nvmet_bio_done() that can cause a NULL pointer dereference in blk_cgroup_bio_start():

  1. nvmet_bio_done() is called when a bio completes
  2. nvmet_req_complete() is called, which invokes req->ops->queue_response(req)
  3. The queue_response callback can re-queue and re-submit the same request
  4. The re-submission reuses the same inline_bio from nvmet_req
  5. Meanwhile, nvmet_req_bio_put() (called after nvmet_req_complete) invokes bio_uninit() for inline_bio, which sets bio->bi_blkg to NULL
  6. The re-submitted bio enters submit_bio_noacct_nocheck()
  7. blk_cgroup_bio_start() dereferences bio->bi_blkg, causing a crash:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000028 #PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode RIP: 0010:blk_cgroup_bio_start+0x10/0xd0 Call Trace: submit_bio_noacct_nocheck+0x44/0x250 nvmet_bdev_execute_rw+0x254/0x370 [nvmet] process_one_work+0x193/0x3c0 worker_thread+0x281/0x3a0

Fix this by reordering nvmet_bio_done() to call nvmet_req_bio_put() BEFORE nvmet_req_complete(). This ensures the bio is cleaned up before the request can be re-submitted, preventing the race condition.

Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net/tunnel: wait until all sk_user_data reader finish before releasing the sock

There is a race condition in vxlan that when deleting a vxlan device during receiving packets, there is a possibility that the sock is released after getting vxlan_sock vs from sk_user_data. Then in later vxlan_ecn_decapsulate(), vxlan_get_sk_family() we will got NULL pointer dereference. e.g.

Mitigation MIT-56
Implementation

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
Requirements

Select a programming language that is not susceptible to these issues.

Mitigation
Implementation

Check the results of all functions that return a value and verify that the value is non-null before acting upon it.

Mitigation
Architecture and Design

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
Implementation

Explicitly initialize all variables and other data stores, either during declaration or just before the first usage.
