Security Vulnerabilities
- CVEs Published In January 2025
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
dlm: fix possible lkb_resource null dereference
This patch fixes a possible null pointer dereference when this function is
called from request_lock() as lkb->lkb_resource is not assigned yet,
only after validate_lock_args() by calling attach_lkb(). Another issue
is that a resource name could be a non printable bytearray and we cannot
assume to be ASCII coded.
The log functionality is probably never being hit when DLM is used in
normal way and no debug logging is enabled. The null pointer dereference
can only occur on a new created lkb that does not have the resource
assigned yet, it probably never hits the null pointer dereference but we
should be sure that other changes might not change this behaviour and we
actually can hit the mentioned null pointer dereference.
In this patch we just drop the printout of the resource name, the lkb id
is enough to make a possible connection to a resource name if this
exists.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtw89: check return value of ieee80211_probereq_get() for RNR
The return value of ieee80211_probereq_get() might be NULL, so check it
before using to avoid NULL pointer access.
Addresses-Coverity-ID: 1529805 ("Dereference null return value")
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
btrfs: don't take dev_replace rwsem on task already holding it
Running fstests btrfs/011 with MKFS_OPTIONS="-O rst" to force the usage of
the RAID stripe-tree, we get the following splat from lockdep:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i3c: Use i3cdev->desc->info instead of calling i3c_device_get_info() to avoid deadlock
A deadlock may happen since the i3c_master_register() acquires
&i3cbus->lock twice. See the log below.
Use i3cdev->desc->info instead of calling i3c_device_info() to
avoid acquiring the lock twice.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i3c: mipi-i3c-hci: Mask ring interrupts before ring stop request
Bus cleanup path in DMA mode may trigger a RING_OP_STAT interrupt when
the ring is being stopped. Depending on timing between ring stop request
completion, interrupt handler removal and code execution this may lead
to a NULL pointer dereference in hci_dma_irq_handler() if it gets to run
after the io_data pointer is set to NULL in hci_dma_cleanup().
Prevent this my masking the ring interrupts before ring stop request.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
pinmux: Use sequential access to access desc->pinmux data
When two client of the same gpio call pinctrl_select_state() for the
same functionality, we are seeing NULL pointer issue while accessing
desc->mux_owner.
Let's say two processes A, B executing in pin_request() for the same pin
and process A updates the desc->mux_usecount but not yet updated the
desc->mux_owner while process B see the desc->mux_usecount which got
updated by A path and further executes strcmp and while accessing
desc->mux_owner it crashes with NULL pointer.
Serialize the access to mux related setting with a mutex lock.
cpu0 (process A) cpu1(process B)
pinctrl_select_state() { pinctrl_select_state() {
pin_request() { pin_request() {
...
....
} else {
desc->mux_usecount++;
desc->mux_usecount && strcmp(desc->mux_owner, owner)) {
if (desc->mux_usecount > 1)
return 0;
desc->mux_owner = owner;
} }
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
block: avoid to reuse `hctx` not removed from cpuhp callback list
If the 'hctx' isn't removed from cpuhp callback list, we can't reuse it,
otherwise use-after-free may be triggered.
A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, was found in Guangzhou Huayi Intelligent Technology Jeewms up to 20241229. Affected is the function datagridGraph of the file /graphReportController.do. The manipulation of the argument store_code leads to sql injection. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. Upgrading to version 20250101 is able to address this issue. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component.
A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in Guangzhou Huayi Intelligent Technology Jeewms up to 20241229. This issue affects the function saveOrUpdate of the file org/jeecgframework/web/cgform/controller/build/CgFormBuildController. java. The manipulation leads to sql injection. The attack may be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used. Upgrading to version 20250101 is able to address this issue. It is recommended to upgrade the affected component.
The GiveWP – Donation Plugin and Fundraising Platform plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to PHP Object Injection in all versions up to, and including, 3.19.2 via deserialization of untrusted input from the donation form like 'firstName'. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to inject a PHP Object. The additional presence of a POP chain allows attackers to delete arbitrary files on the server that makes remote code execution possible. Please note this was only partially patched in 3.19.3, a fully sufficient patch was not released until 3.19.4. However, another CVE was assigned by another CNA for version 3.19.3 so we will leave this as affecting 3.19.2 and before. We have recommended the vendor use JSON encoding to prevent any further deserialization vulnerabilities from being present.
