Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: phy: fix phy_get_internal_delay accessing an empty array The phy_get_internal_delay function could try to access to an empty
array in the case that the driver is calling phy_get_internal_delay
without defining delay_values and rx-internal-delay-ps or
tx-internal-delay-ps is defined to 0 in the device-tree.
This will lead to "unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at
virtual address 0". To avoid this kernel oops, the test should be delay
>= 0. As there is already delay < 0 test just before, the test could
only be size == 0.

En el kernel de Linux se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: net:phy: fix phy_get_internal_delay accediendo a un array vacío La función phy_get_internal_delay podría intentar acceder a un array vacío en el caso de que el driver esté llamando a phy_get_internal_delay sin definir delay_values y rx-internal- delay-ps o tx-internal-delay-ps se define en 0 en el árbol de dispositivos. Esto provocará que "no se pueda manejar la desreferencia del puntero NULL del kernel en la dirección virtual 0". Para evitar este problema del kernel, la prueba debe tener un retraso &gt;= 0. Como ya hay un retraso &lt; 0 en la prueba justo antes, la prueba solo podría tener un tamaño == 0.

Ziming Zhang discovered that the DRM driver for VMware Virtual GPU did not properly handle certain error conditions, leading to a NULL pointer dereference. A local attacker could possibly trigger this vulnerability to cause a denial of service. Zheng Wang discovered that the Broadcom FullMAC WLAN driver in the Linux kernel contained a race condition during device removal, leading to a use- after-free vulnerability. A physically proximate attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service.
