| DATE | CVE | VULNERABILITY TITLE | RISK |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-49956 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel 6.11/6.11.1/6.11.2 In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gfs2: fix double destroy_workqueue error When gfs2_fill_super() fails, destroy_workqueue() is called within gfs2_gl_hash_clear(), and the subsequent code path calls destroy_workqueue() on the same work queue again. This issue can be fixed by setting the work queue pointer to NULL after the first destroy_workqueue() call and checking for a NULL pointer before attempting to destroy the work queue again. | 5.5 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-49957 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ocfs2: fix null-ptr-deref when journal load failed. During the mounting process, if journal_reset() fails because of too short journal, then lead to jbd2_journal_load() fails with NULL j_sb_buffer. | 5.5 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-49962 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ACPICA: check null return of ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED() in acpi_db_convert_to_package() ACPICA commit 4d4547cf13cca820ff7e0f859ba83e1a610b9fd0 ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED() may fail, elements might be NULL and will cause NULL pointer dereference later.

| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-49978 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gso: fix udp gso fraglist segmentation after pull from frag_list Detect gso fraglist skbs with corrupted geometry (see below) and pass these to skb_segment instead of skb_segment_list, as the first can segment them correctly. Valid SKB_GSO_FRAGLIST skbs - consist of two or more segments - the head_skb holds the protocol headers plus first gso_size - one or more frag_list skbs hold exactly one segment - all but the last must be gso_size Optional datapath hooks such as NAT and BPF (bpf_skb_pull_data) can modify these skbs, breaking these invariants. In extreme cases they pull all data into skb linear. | 5.5 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-49979 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: gso: fix tcp fraglist segmentation after pull from frag_list Detect tcp gso fraglist skbs with corrupted geometry (see below) and pass these to skb_segment instead of skb_segment_list, as the first can segment them correctly. Valid SKB_GSO_FRAGLIST skbs - consist of two or more segments - the head_skb holds the protocol headers plus first gso_size - one or more frag_list skbs hold exactly one segment - all but the last must be gso_size Optional datapath hooks such as NAT and BPF (bpf_skb_pull_data) can modify these skbs, breaking these invariants. In extreme cases they pull all data into skb linear. | 5.5 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-49987 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpftool: Fix undefined behavior in qsort(NULL, 0, ...) When netfilter has no entry to display, qsort is called with qsort(NULL, 0, ...). | 5.5 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-50000 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5e: Fix NULL deref in mlx5e_tir_builder_alloc() In mlx5e_tir_builder_alloc() kvzalloc() may return NULL which is dereferenced on the next line in a reference to the modify field. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE. | 5.5 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-47737 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfsd: call cache_put if xdr_reserve_space returns NULL If not enough buffer space available, but idmap_lookup has triggered lookup_fn which calls cache_get and returns successfully. | 5.5 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-47743 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: KEYS: prevent NULL pointer dereference in find_asymmetric_key() In find_asymmetric_key(), if all NULLs are passed in the id_{0,1,2} arguments, the kernel will first emit WARN but then have an oops because id_2 gets dereferenced anyway. Add the missing id_2 check and move WARN_ON() to the final else branch to avoid duplicate NULL checks. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Svace static analysis tool. | 5.5 |
| 2024-10-21 | CVE-2024-47749 | NULL Pointer Dereference vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/cxgb4: Added NULL check for lookup_atid The lookup_atid() function can return NULL if the ATID is invalid or does not exist in the identifier table, which could lead to dereferencing a null pointer without a check in the `act_establish()` and `act_open_rpl()` functions. Add a NULL check to prevent null pointer dereferencing. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE. | 5.5 |
