      <title>CVE-2026-43272 — ring-buffer: Fix possible dereference of uninitialized pointer</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-43272</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ring-buffer: Fix possible dereference of uninitialized pointer&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is a pointer head_page in rb_meta_validate_events() which is not
initialized at the beginning of a function. This pointer can be dereferenced
if there is a failure during reader page validation. In this case the control
is passed to &amp;#34;invalid&amp;#34; label where the pointer is dereferenced in a loop.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To fix the issue initialize orig_head and head_page before calling
rb_validate_buffer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
