4Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xfs: only call xf{array,blob}_destroy if we have a valid pointer Only call the xfarray and xfblob destructor if we have a valid pointer, and be sure to null out that pointer afterwards. Note that this patch fixes a large number of commits, most of which were merged between 6.9 and 6.10.
Analysis
This vulnerability in the Linux kernel's XFS filesystem code involves improper pointer validation in xfarray and xfblob destructor functions, where the destructors can be called with invalid (dangling) pointers if the pointer is not properly nulled after deallocation. The vulnerability affects Linux kernel versions 6.9 through 6.10 and later patch versions, potentially allowing information disclosure or system instability. …
