| Mbed TLS before 2.28.10 and 3.x before 3.6.3, in some cases of failed memory allocation or hardware errors, uses uninitialized stack memory to compose the TLS Finished message, potentially leading to authentication bypasses such as replays. |
| Use of uninitialized resource within the AMD Platform Management Framework (PMF) could allow an attacker to read a uninitialized kernel memory resulting in loss of confidentiality or availability. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
staging: rtl8723bs: initialize le_tmp64 in rtw_BIP_verify()
Initialize le_tmp64 to zero in rtw_BIP_verify() to prevent using
uninitialized data.
Smatch warns that only 6 bytes are copied to this 8-byte (u64)
variable, leaving the last two bytes uninitialized:
drivers/staging/rtl8723bs/core/rtw_security.c:1308 rtw_BIP_verify()
warn: not copying enough bytes for '&le_tmp64' (8 vs 6 bytes)
Initializing the variable at the start of the function fixes this
warning and ensures predictable behavior. |
| pam_usb provides hardware authentication for Linux using ordinary removable media. Prior to 0.9.0, the pusb_pad_compare() function in src/pad.c only verified that the user-side pad (~/.pamusb/device.pad) could be read, but did not enforce that the system-side pad (the pad file on the USB device) was also present and readable. If the user-side pad was deleted or unreadable, the function returned a failure that was treated as non-fatal in certain code paths, allowing authentication to succeed without the USB device being verified. A local user can delete their own ~/.pamusb/device.pad to remove the USB device requirement and authenticate without the physical device. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.9.0. |
| In xsltCopyText in transform.c in libxslt 1.1.33, a pointer variable isn't reset under certain circumstances. If the relevant memory area happened to be freed and reused in a certain way, a bounds check could fail and memory outside a buffer could be written to, or uninitialized data could be disclosed. |
| In numbers.c in libxslt 1.1.33, an xsl:number with certain format strings could lead to a uninitialized read in xsltNumberFormatInsertNumbers. This could allow an attacker to discern whether a byte on the stack contains the characters A, a, I, i, or 0, or any other character. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mctp i2c: initialise event handler read bytes
Set a 0xff value for i2c reads of an mctp-i2c device. Otherwise reads
will return "val" from the i2c bus driver. For i2c-aspeed and
i2c-npcm7xx that is a stack uninitialised u8.
Tested with "i2ctransfer -y 1 r10@0x34" where 0x34 is a mctp-i2c
instance, now it returns all 0xff. |
| The deploy-stub component in Panda3D versions up to and including 1.10.16 contains a denial of service vulnerability due to unbounded stack allocation. The deploy-stub executable allocates argv_copy and argv_copy2 using alloca() based directly on the attacker-controlled argc value without validation. Supplying a large number of command-line arguments can exhaust stack space and propagate uninitialized stack memory into Python interpreter initialization, resulting in a reliable crash and undefined behavior. |
| Use of uninitialized resource in Windows Imaging Component allows an unauthorized attacker to disclose information locally. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fs: init flags_valid before calling vfs_fileattr_get
syzbot reported a uninit-value bug in [1].
Similar to the "*get" context where the kernel's internal file_kattr
structure is initialized before calling vfs_fileattr_get(), we should
use the same mechanism when using fa.

| libheif is a HEIF and AVIF file format decoder and encoder. In versions 1.21.2 and prior, when decoding a HEIF grid image with strict_decoding=false (the default), a corrupted tile silently fails to decode and the library returns heif_error_Ok with no indication of failure, leading to an uninitialized heap memory information leak. The canvas is allocated via create_clone_image_at_new_size() → plane.alloc() → new (std::nothrow) uint8_t[allocation_size] which does not zero the memory; only the alpha plane is explicitly initialized via fill_plane(), so the Y, Cb, and Cr planes contain whatever was previously at that heap address. The failed tile's region of the canvas is never written. It retains uninitialized heap data that is delivered to the caller as decoded pixel values (4,096 bytes per Y/Cb/Cr plane = 12,288+ bytes total). Any application using libheif to decode grid-based HEIF/AVIF files with default settings is vulnerable: a crafted .heic or .avif file causes 4,096+ bytes of heap memory to appear as pixel values in the decoded image, and the calling application receives heif_error_Ok, so it has no indication the output contains heap garbage. In server-side image processing, an uploaded crafted HEIF decoded and re-encoded (e.g., as PNG/JPEG for thumbnails, CDN, social media) can leak cross-user data such as auth tokens, database results, and other users' image data. This issue has been fixed in version 1.22.0. |
| Access of resource using incompatible type ('type confusion') in Microsoft Office Word allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code locally. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
arm64: dts: qcom: monaco: Reserve full Gunyah metadata region
We observe spurious "Synchronous External Abort" exceptions
(ESR=0x96000010) and kernel crashes on Monaco-based platforms.
These faults are caused by the kernel inadvertently accessing
hypervisor-owned memory that is not properly marked as reserved.
>From boot log, The Qualcomm hypervisor reports the memory range
at 0x91a80000 of size 0x80000 (512 KiB) as hypervisor-owned:
qhee_hyp_assign_remove_memory: 0x91a80000/0x80000 -> ret 0
However, the EFI memory map provided by firmware only reserves the
subrange 0x91a40000–0x91a87fff (288 KiB). The remaining portion
(0x91a88000–0x91afffff) is incorrectly reported as conventional
memory (from efi debug):
efi: 0x000091a40000-0x000091a87fff [Reserved...]
efi: 0x000091a88000-0x0000938fffff [Conventional...]
As a result, the allocator may hand out PFNs inside the hypervisor
owned region, causing fatal aborts when the kernel accesses those
addresses.
Add a reserved-memory carveout for the Gunyah hypervisor metadata
at 0x91a80000 (512 KiB) and mark it as no-map so Linux does not
map or allocate from this area.
For the record:
Hyp version: gunyah-e78adb36e debug (2025-11-17 05:38:05 UTC)

The root cause is: in f2fs_finish_read_bio(), we may access uninit data
in folio if we failed to read the data from device into folio, let's add
a check condition to avoid such issue. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: nfc: nci: Fix parameter validation for packet data
Since commit 9c328f54741b ("net: nfc: nci: Add parameter validation for
packet data") communication with nci nfc chips is not working any more.
The mentioned commit tries to fix access of uninitialized data, but
failed to understand that in some cases the data packet is of variable
length and can therefore not be compared to the maximum packet length
given by the sizeof(struct). |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mfd: macsmc: Initialize mutex
Initialize struct apple_smc's mutex in apple_smc_probe(). Using the
mutex uninitialized surprisingly resulted only in occasional NULL
pointer dereferences in apple_smc_read() calls from the probe()
functions of sub devices. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: iris: Add buffer to list only after successful allocation
Move `list_add_tail()` to after `dma_alloc_attrs()` succeeds when creating
internal buffers. Previously, the buffer was enqueued in `buffers->list`
before the DMA allocation. If the allocation failed, the function returned
`-ENOMEM` while leaving a partially initialized buffer in the list, which
could lead to inconsistent state and potential leaks.
By adding the buffer to the list only after `dma_alloc_attrs()` succeeds,
we ensure the list contains only valid, fully initialized buffers. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipmi: ipmb: initialise event handler read bytes
IPMB doesn't use i2c reads, but the handler needs to set a value.
Otherwise an i2c read will return an uninitialised value from the bus
driver. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
HID: core: zero-initialize the report buffer
Since the report buffer is used by all kinds of drivers in various ways, let's
zero-initialize it during allocation to make sure that it can't be ever used
to leak kernel memory via specially-crafted report. |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sctp: initialize more fields in sctp_v6_from_sk()
syzbot found that sin6_scope_id was not properly initialized,
leading to undefined behavior.
Clear sin6_scope_id and sin6_flowinfo.
