Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: nfc: fix potential NULL pointer deref in nfc_genl_dump_ses_done The done() netlink callback nfc_genl_dump_ses_done() should check if
received argument is non-NULL, because its allocation could fail earlier
in dumpit() (nfc_genl_dump_ses()).

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: nfc: corrige la posible deref del puntero NULL en nfc_genl_dump_ses_done La devolución de llamada de netlink done() nfc_genl_dump_ses_done() debe verificar si el argumento recibido no es NULL, porque su asignación podría fallar antes en dumpit() (nfc_genl_dump_ses()).

Yuxuan Hu discovered that the Bluetooth RFCOMM protocol driver in the Linux Kernel contained a race condition, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that a race condition existed in the Bluetooth subsystem in the Linux kernel, leading to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. A privileged local attacker could use this to possibly cause a denial of service.
