Descriptions
A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability in the function nfc_genl_deactivate_target() in net/nfc/netlink.c in the Linux kernel before 5.1.13 can be triggered by a malicious user-mode program that omits certain NFC attributes, leading to denial of service.
Una vulnerabilidad de desreferencia del puntero NULL en la función nfc_genl_deactivate_target() en net/nfc/netlink.c en el kernel de Linux antes de la versión 5.1.13 puede ser desencadenada por un programa malintencionado en modo de usuario que omite ciertos atributos NFC, lo que conduce a la denegación de servicio.
It was discovered that the USB video device class implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly validate control bits, resulting in an out of bounds buffer read. A local attacker could use this to possibly expose sensitive information (kernel memory). It was discovered that the Marvell Wireless LAN device driver in the Linux kernel did not properly validate the BSS descriptor. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. Various other vulnerabilities have also been addressed.
