| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
kobject: Add sanity check for kset->kobj.ktype in kset_register()
When I register a kset in the following way:
static struct kset my_kset;
kobject_set_name(&my_kset.kobj, "my_kset");
ret = kset_register(&my_kset);
A null pointer dereference exception is occurred:
[ 4453.568337] Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at \
virtual address 0000000000000028
... ...
[ 4453.810361] Call trace:

Because I didn't initialize my_kset.kobj.ktype.
According to the description in Documentation/core-api/kobject.rst:
- A ktype is the type of object that embeds a kobject. Every structure
that embeds a kobject needs a corresponding ktype.
So add sanity check to make sure kset->kobj.ktype is not NULL. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: processor: Check for null return of devm_kzalloc() in fch_misc_setup()
devm_kzalloc() may fail, clk_data->name might be NULL and will
cause a NULL pointer dereference later.

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
eth: bnxt: fix kernel panic in the bnxt_get_queue_stats{rx | tx}
When qstats-get operation is executed, callbacks of netdev_stats_ops
are called. The bnxt_get_queue_stats{rx | tx} collect per-queue stats
from sw_stats in the rings.
But {rx | tx | cp}_ring are allocated when the interface is up.
So, these rings are not allocated when the interface is down.
The qstats-get is allowed even if the interface is down. However,
the bnxt_get_queue_stats{rx | tx}() accesses cp_ring and tx_ring
without null check.
So, it needs to avoid accessing rings if the interface is down.
Reproducer:
ip link set $interface down
./cli.py --spec netdev.yaml --dump qstats-get
OR
ip link set $interface down
python ./stats.py
Splat looks like:

Bluetooth: l2cap: fix null-ptr-deref in l2cap_chan_timeout
There is a race condition between l2cap_chan_timeout() and
l2cap_chan_del(). When we use l2cap_chan_del() to delete the
channel, the chan->conn will be set to null. But the conn could
be dereferenced again in the mutex_lock() of l2cap_chan_timeout().
As a result the null pointer dereference bug will happen. The
KASAN report triggered by POC is shown below:

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: coda: Add check for dcoda_iram_alloc
As the coda_iram_alloc may return NULL pointer,
it should be better to check the return value
in order to avoid NULL poineter dereference,
same as the others. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mtd: lpddr2_nvm: Fix possible null-ptr-deref
It will cause null-ptr-deref when resource_size(add_range) invoked,
if platform_get_resource() returns NULL. |
| RIOT is an open-source microcontroller operating system, designed to match the requirements of Internet of Things (IoT) devices and other embedded devices. A vulnerability was discovered in the IPv6 fragmentation reassembly implementation of RIOT OS v2025.07. When receiving an fragmented IPv6 packet with fragment offset 0 and an empty payload, the payload pointer is set to NULL. However, the implementation still tries to copy the payload into the reassembly buffer, resulting in a NULL pointer dereference which crashes the OS (DoS). To trigger the vulnerability, the `gnrc_ipv6_ext_frag` module must be enabled and the attacker must be able to send arbitrary IPv6 packets to the victim. RIOT OS v2025.10 fixes the issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: fec: Fix possible NPD in fec_enet_phy_reset_after_clk_enable()
The function of_phy_find_device may return NULL, so we need to take
care before dereferencing phy_dev. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
x86/fpu: Fix copy_xstate_to_uabi() to copy init states correctly
When an extended state component is not present in fpstate, but in init
state, the function copies from init_fpstate via copy_feature().
But, dynamic states are not present in init_fpstate because of all-zeros
init states. Then retrieving them from init_fpstate will explode like this:

Adjust the 'mask' to zero out the userspace buffer for the features that
are not available both from fpstate and from init_fpstate.
The dynamic features depend on the compacted XSAVE format. Ensure it is
enabled before reading XCOMP_BV in init_fpstate. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pwm: lpc32xx: Remove handling of PWM channels
Because LPC32xx PWM controllers have only a single output which is
registered as the only PWM device/channel per controller, it is known in
advance that pwm->hwpwm value is always 0. On basis of this fact
simplify the code by removing operations with pwm->hwpwm, there is no
controls which require channel number as input.
Even though I wasn't aware at the time when I forward ported that patch,
this fixes a null pointer dereference as lpc32xx->chip.pwms is NULL
before devm_pwmchip_add() is called. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iw_cxgb4: Fix potential NULL dereference in c4iw_fill_res_cm_id_entry()
This condition needs to match the previous "if (epcp->state == LISTEN) {"
exactly to avoid a NULL dereference of either "listen_ep" or "ep". The
problem is that "epcp" has been re-assigned so just testing
"if (epcp->state == LISTEN) {" a second time is not sufficient. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: Lag, fix failure to cancel delayed bond work
Commit 0d4e8ed139d8 ("net/mlx5: Lag, avoid lockdep warnings")
accidentally removed a call to cancel delayed bond work thus it may
cause queued delay to expire and fall on an already destroyed work
queue.
Fix by restoring the call cancel_delayed_work_sync() before
destroying the workqueue.
This prevents call trace such as this:

The validity of sock should be checked before assignment to avoid incorrect
values. Commit 57569c37f0ad ("scsi: iscsi: iscsi_tcp: Fix null-ptr-deref

inconsistent values of tcp_sw_conn->sendpage and conn->datadgst_en.
Fix the issue by moving the position of the assignment. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ionic: catch failure from devlink_alloc
Add a check for NULL on the alloc return. If devlink_alloc() fails and
we try to use devlink_priv() on the NULL return, the kernel gets very
unhappy and panics. With this fix, the driver load will still fail,
but at least it won't panic the kernel. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cpufreq: scmi: Fix null-ptr-deref in scmi_cpufreq_get_rate()
cpufreq_cpu_get_raw() can return NULL when the target CPU is not present
in the policy->cpus mask. scmi_cpufreq_get_rate() does not check for
this case, which results in a NULL pointer dereference.
Add NULL check after cpufreq_cpu_get_raw() to prevent this issue. |

| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
FS: JFS: Fix null-ptr-deref Read in txBegin
Syzkaller reported an issue where txBegin may be called
on a superblock in a read-only mounted filesystem which leads
to NULL pointer deref. This could be solved by checking if
the filesystem is read-only before calling txBegin, and returning
with appropiate error code. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: cx23885: Fix a null-ptr-deref bug in buffer_prepare() and buffer_finish()
When the driver calls cx23885_risc_buffer() to prepare the buffer, the
function call dma_alloc_coherent may fail, resulting in a empty buffer
risc->cpu. Later when we free the buffer or access the buffer, null ptr
deref is triggered.
This bug is similar to the following one:
https://git.linuxtv.org/media_stage.git/commit/?id=2b064d91440b33fba5b452f2d1b31f13ae911d71.
We believe the bug can be also dynamically triggered from user side.
Similarly, we fix this by checking the return value of cx23885_risc_buffer()
and the value of risc->cpu before buffer free. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Fix potential null dereference
The adev->dm.dc pointer can be NULL and dereferenced in amdgpu_dm_fini()
