freerdp: Null Pointer Dereference leading DOS in RemoteFX

A flaw was found in FreeRDP. If the initialization process of tiles is incomplete, for various reasons, tiles will have a NULL pointer. This can be accessed in further processing, causing a program crash...

kernel: ipmi_si: fix a memleak in try_smi_init()

A memory leak flaw was found in the Linux kernel's IPMI System Interface driver in the initialization error path. A local user can trigger this issue by loading the ipmisi module when initialization fails after allocating the sism structure but before registering the shutdown handler. This causes...

kernel: nf_tables: use-after-free vulnerability in the nft_verdict_init() function

A flaw was found in the Netfilter subsystem in the Linux kernel. This issue occurs in the nftverdictinit function, allowing positive values as a drop error within the hook verdict, therefore, the nfhookslow function can cause a double-free vulnerability when NFDROP is issued with a drop error tha...

kernel: Bluetooth: HCI: global out-of-bounds access in net/bluetooth/hci_sync.c

An out-of-bounds OOB memory access flaw was found in net/bluetooth/hcisync.c due to a missing exit patch while in loop in ampinit1 and ampinit2. This issue could allow an attacker to leak internal kernel information...

kernel: Linux kernel: Denial of Service in ASoC wcd938x codec due to improper error handling

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ASoC wcd938x codec component. This vulnerability stems from improper error handling during the initialization of the Multi-Band Headset Controller MBHC. A local attacker with low privileges could exploit this by triggering a specific sequence of events,...

kernel: blk-cgroup: Reinit blkg_iostat_set after clearing in blkcg_reset_stats()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: blk-cgroup: Reinit blkgiostatset after clearing in blkcgresetstats When blkgalloc is called to allocate a blkcggq structure with the associated blkgiostatset's, there are 2 fields within blkgiostatset that requires proper...

kernel: net: fix UaF in netns ops registration error path

A use-after-free vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel in the opsinit function, where improper error handling can result in an out-of-bounds error. This issue occurs if the function netassigngeneric fails and the error-handling code attempts to clean up a pointer that was never properly...

kernel: ASoC: codecs: wcd-mbhc-v2: fix resource leaks on component remove

A resource leak was found in the WCD MBHC v2 audio codec driver in the Linux kernel. MBHC resources are not properly released on component probe failure or removal, causing interrupt request failures and preventing successful reprobing of the codec component. This leads to sound card initializati...

SUSE CVE-2024-3860

An out-of-memory condition during object initialization could result in an empty shape list. If the JIT subsequently traced the object it would crash. This vulnerability affects Firefox 125...
