CWE-ID: CWE-401 - Missing release of memory after effective lifetime

CVSSv4: 6.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to memory leak within the release_open_stateid(), spin_lock() and nfsd4_process_open2() functions in fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-57849)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: 8.5 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the cpumsf_pmu_stop() function in arch/s390/kernel/perf_cpum_sf.c. A local user can escalate privileges on the system.


6) Resource management error (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-57904)

CWE-ID: CWE-399 - Resource Management Errors

CVSSv4: 6.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to resource management error within the at91_ts_register() function in drivers/iio/adc/at91_adc.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


7) NULL pointer dereference (CVE-ID: CVE-2024-57929)

CWE-ID: CWE-476 - NULL Pointer Dereference

CVSSv4: 6.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to NULL pointer dereference within the load_ablock() function in drivers/md/persistent-data/dm-array.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


8) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-21664)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

CVSSv4: 6.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read error within the get_first_thin() function in drivers/md/dm-thin.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


9) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-38724)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: 8.5 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the nfsd4_setclientid_confirm() function in fs/nfsd/nfs4state.c. A local user can escalate privileges on the system.


10) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53131)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: 8.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in netfilter Ethernet header handling when processing packets that reach ip6t_eui64, xt_mac, ipset bitmap:ip,mac, hash:ip,mac, hash:mac, or nf_log_syslog code paths without a valid Ethernet MAC header. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted packet to cause a denial of service.

The issue occurs because these paths access eth_hdr(skb) after insufficient validation that the skb is associated with an Ethernet device and that a full MAC header is present.


11) Improper input validation (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-53221)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: 6.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause traffic to be associated with the wrong tunnel.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in vti6_tnl_lookup() when matching IPv6 VTI tunnels during fallback wildcard tunnel searches. A remote attacker can send network traffic that triggers a hash collision and incorrect tunnel selection to cause traffic to be associated with the wrong tunnel.

The issue occurs because candidate tunnels in the fallback search were not verified to actually use wildcard local or remote addresses.
