Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv6: prevent NULL dereference in ip6_output() According to syzbot, there is a chance that ip6_dst_idev()
returns NULL in ip6_output(). Most places in IPv6 stack
deal with a NULL idev just fine, but not here. syzbot reported: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc00000000bc: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: ipv6: evita la desreferencia a NULL en ip6_output() Según syzbot, existe la posibilidad de que ip6_dst_idev() devuelva NULL en ip6_output(). La mayoría de los lugares en la pila IPv6 manejan un idev NULL muy bien, pero no aquí. syzbot informó: falla de protección general, probablemente para dirección no canónica 0xdffffc00000000bc: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI KASAN: null-ptr-deref en rango [0x00000000000005e0-0x00000000000005e7] CPU: 0 PID: 9775 Comm: ejecutor. 4 No contaminado 6.9.0-rc5-syzkaller-00157-g6a30653b604a #0 Nombre del hardware: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 27/03/2024 RIP: 0010:ip6_output+0x231/0x3f0 net/ipv6/ip6_output. c:237 Código: 3c 1e 00 49 89 df 74 08 4c 89 ef e8 19 58 db f7 48 8b 44 24 20 49 89 45 00 49 89 c5 48 8d 9d e0 05 00 00 48 89 d8 48 c1 e8 &lt;42&gt; 0f b6 04 38 84 c0 4c 8b 74 24 28 0f 85 61 01 00 00 8b 1b 31 ff RSP: 0018:ffffc9000927f0d8 EFLAGS: 00010202 RAX: 00000000000000bc RBX: 000000000005e0 RCX: 0000000000040000 RDX: ffffc900131f9000 RSI: 0000000000004f47 RDI: 0000000000004f48 RBP: 00000000000000000 R08: ffffffff8a1f0b9a R09: 1ffffffff1f51fad R10: dffffc0000000000 R11: ffffbfff1f51fae R12: ffff8880293ec8c0 R13: ffff88805d7fc000 R14: R15: dffffc0000000000 FS: 00007f135c6856c0(0000) GS:ffff8880b9400000(0000) knlGS:00000000000000000 CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 CR2: 0000000020000080 CR3: 0000000064096000 CR4: 00000000003506f0 DR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 00000000000000 DR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400 Seguimiento de llamadas: NF_HOOK include/linux/netfilter.h:314 [en línea] ip6_xmit+0xefe /0x17f0 net/ipv6/ip6_output.c:358 sctp_v6_xmit+0x9f2/0x13f0 net/sctp/ipv6.c:248 sctp_packet_transmit+0x26ad/0x2ca0 net/sctp/output.c:653 sctp_packet_singleton+0x22c/0x320 net /sctp/cola de salida. c:783 sctp_outq_flush_ctrl net/sctp/outqueue.c:914 [en línea] sctp_outq_flush+0x6d5/0x3e20 net/sctp/outqueue.c:1212 sctp_side_effects net/sctp/sm_sideeffect.c:1198 [en línea] 9cc/0x60c0 neto/ sctp/sm_sideeffect.c:1169 sctp_primitive_ASSOCIATE+0x95/0xc0 net/sctp/primitive.c:73 __sctp_connect+0x9cd/0xe30 net/sctp/socket.c:1234 sctp_connect net/sctp/socket.c:4819 [en línea] sctp_inet_connect+ 0x149/0x1f0 net/sctp/socket.c:4834 __sys_connect_file net/socket.c:2048 [en línea] __sys_connect+0x2df/0x310 net/socket.c:2065 __do_sys_connect net/socket.c:2075 [en línea] __se_sys_connect red/socket .c:2072 [en línea] __x64_sys_connect+0x7a/0x90 net/socket.c:2072 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:52 [en línea] do_syscall_64+0xf5/0x240 arch/x86/entry/common.c:83 entrada_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x77/0x7f

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.
