4Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drbd: fix null-pointer dereference on local read error In drbd_request_endio(), READ_COMPLETED_WITH_ERROR is passed to __req_mod() with a NULL peer_device: __req_mod(req, what, NULL, &m); The READ_COMPLETED_WITH_ERROR handler then unconditionally passes this NULL peer_device to drbd_set_out_of_sync(), which dereferences it, causing a null-pointer dereference. Fix this by obtaining the peer_device via first_peer_device(device), matching how drbd_req_destroy() handles the same situation.
Analysis
A null-pointer dereference vulnerability exists in the Linux kernel's DRBD (Distributed Replicated Block Device) subsystem when handling local read errors. When a READ_COMPLETED_WITH_ERROR event occurs in drbd_request_endio(), a NULL peer_device pointer is passed to the __req_mod() function, which then unconditionally dereferences it in drbd_set_out_of_sync(), causing a kernel panic or system crash. …
