In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<\/p>\n
tipc: fix NULL deref in tipc_named_node_up() on empty publication list<\/p>\n
User-space applications can bind a large number of service addresses to
\none or more sockets. Each binding of a local-scope service address inserts
\none entry (publication) into the TIPC name table. If the number of these
\npublications exceeds TIPC_MAX_PUBL (65535), protocol service types
\n(such as node state and link state) are no longer inserted into the name
\ntable. This causes two issues:<\/p>\n
1. User-space applications subscribing to node or link up\/down events
\n stop receiving notifications.<\/p>\n
2. A NULL pointer dereference can occur:<\/p>\n

If ‘tipc_nametbl_publish()’ (Thread 1) fails because the number of
\n local publications reaches TIPC_MAX_PUBL, list (Thread 2) will be empty. As a
\n result, NULL is passed to ‘buf_msg()’, leading to a NULL pointer dereference.<\/p>\n
Fix these issues by allowing protocol service types (node state, link state,
\nand topology server) to be inserted into the name table unconditionally.
\nThis ensures that users subscribing to these types always receive
\nnotifications. In addition, the maximum number of local user publications is
\nreduced to (TIPC_MAX_PUBL – 1). This ensures that the maximum bulk size
\ncalculated in tipc_link_set_queue_limits() remains valid.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
