{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2026-74734","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  firewire: ohci: fix NULL pointer dereference in ar_context_release  During the error handling path of the driver's probe function, a NULL pointer dereference can occur in ar_context_release().  When pci_probe() fails early (e.g., if pcim_enable_device() or MMIO mapping fails), the devres cleanup mechanism invokes release_ohci(). This function unconditionally calls ar_context_release() to clean up the asynchronous receive contexts. However, if ar_context_init() was not yet called, ctx-\u003eohci remains NULL (as the fw_ohci structure is zero-initialized by devres_alloc()).  ar_context_release() immediately dereferences ctx-\u003eohci to get the dev pointer before checking if the context was actually initialized, leading to a crash:  Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000001: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000008-0x000000000000000f] RIP: 0010:ar_context_release+0x3f/0x380 drivers/firewire/ohci.c:543 Call Trace:  release_ohci+0x3f/0x60 drivers/firewire/ohci.c:3567  release_nodes drivers/base/devres.c:546 [inline]  devres_release_all+0x1a8/0x260 drivers/base/devres.c:576  device_unbind_cleanup drivers/base/dd.c:597 [inline]  really_probe+0x451/0xae0 drivers/base/dd.c:772  To fix this, move the assignment of the dev pointer after the !ctx-\u003ebuffer check. If ctx-\u003ebuffer is NULL, it indicates that the context was never successfully initialized and there is nothing to release, safely avoiding the dereference of the uninitialized ctx-\u003eohci pointer.","modified":"2026-09-03T05:01:54.356294959Z","published":"2026-08-26T15:16:51.927Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-74734"],"references":[{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2026-74734"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"linux","ecosystem":"Debian:13","purl":"pkg:deb/debian/linux?arch=source&distro=trixie"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"}]}],"versions":["6.12.100-1","6.12.101-1","6.12.105-1","6.12.107-1","6.12.38-1","6.12.41-1","6.12.43-1","6.12.43-1~bpo12+1","6.12.48-1","6.12.57-1","6.12.57-1~bpo12+1","6.12.63-1","6.12.63-1~bpo12+1","6.12.69-1","6.12.69-1~bpo12+1","6.12.73-1","6.12.73-1~bpo12+1","6.12.74-1","6.12.74-2","6.12.74-2~bpo12+1","6.12.85-1","6.12.85-1~bpo12+1","6.12.86-1","6.12.86-1~bpo12+1","6.12.88-1","6.12.88-1~bpo12+1","6.12.90-1","6.12.90-1~bpo12+1","6.12.90-2","6.12.90-2~bpo12+1","6.12.94-1","6.12.94-1~bpo12+1","6.12.95-1","6.12.95-1~bpo12+1","6.12.96-1","6.13.10-1~exp1","6.13.11-1~exp1","6.13.2-1~exp1","6.13.3-1~exp1","6.13.4-1~exp1","6.13.5-1~exp1","6.13.6-1~exp1","6.13.7-1~exp1","6.13.8-1~exp1","6.13.9-1~exp1","6.13~rc6-1~exp1","6.13~rc7-1~exp1","6.14.3-1~exp1","6.14.5-1~exp1","6.14.6-1~exp1","6.15-1~exp1","6.15.1-1~exp1","6.15.2-1~exp1","6.15.3-1~exp1","6.15.4-1~exp1","6.15.5-1~exp1","6.15.6-1~exp1","6.15~rc7-1~exp1","6.16-1~exp1","6.16.1-1~exp1","6.16.10-1","6.16.11-1","6.16.12-1","6.16.12-1~bpo13+1","6.16.12-2","6.16.3-1","6.16.3-1~bpo13+1","6.16.5-1","6.16.6-1","6.16.7-1","6.16.8-1","6.16.9-1","6.16~rc7-1~exp1","6.17.10-1","6.17.11-1","6.17.12-1","6.17.13-1","6.17.13-1~bpo13+1","6.17.2-1~exp1","6.17.5-1~exp1","6.17.6-1","6.17.7-1","6.17.7-2","6.17.8-1","6.17.8-1~bpo13+1","6.17.9-1","6.18.1-1~exp1","6.18.10-1","6.18.12-1","6.18.12-1~bpo13+1","6.18.13-1","6.18.14-1","6.18.15-1","6.18.15-1~bpo13+1","6.18.2-1~exp1","6.18.3-1","6.18.5-1","6.18.5-1~bpo13+1","6.18.8-1","6.18.9-1","6.18.9-1~bpo13+1","6.18~rc4-1~exp1","6.18~rc4-1~exp2","6.18~rc5-1~exp1","6.18~rc6-1~exp1","6.18~rc7-1~exp1","6.19-1~exp1","6.19.10-1","6.19.10-1~bpo13+1","6.19.11-1","6.19.11-1~bpo13+1","6.19.12-1","6.19.13-1","6.19.13-1~bpo13+1","6.19.14-1","6.19.14-1~bpo13+1","6.19.2-1~exp1","6.19.3-1~exp1","6.19.4-1~exp1","6.19.5-1~exp1","6.19.6-1","6.19.6-2","6.19.6-2~bpo13+1","6.19.8-1","6.19.8-1~bpo13+1","6.19~rc4-1~exp1","6.19~rc5-1~exp1","6.19~rc6-1~exp1","6.19~rc7-1~exp1","6.19~rc8-1~exp1","7.0-1~exp1","7.0.1-1~exp1","7.0.10-1","7.0.10-1~bpo13+1","7.0.12-1","7.0.12-2","7.0.12-2~bpo13+1","7.0.13-1","7.0.13-1~bpo13+1","7.0.14-1","7.0.3-1","7.0.4-1","7.0.4-1~bpo13+1","7.0.7-1","7.0.7-1~bpo13+1","7.0.9-1","7.0.9-1~bpo13+1","7.1.1-1~exp1","7.1.10-1","7.1.12-1","7.1.2-1~exp1","7.1.3-1","7.1.3-1+sunvdc","7.1.3-1~bpo13+1","7.1.4-1","7.1.5-1","7.1.6-1","7.1.7-1","7.1.7-1~bpo13+1","7.1.8-1","7.1.8-1~bpo13+1","7.1.8-2","7.1.9-1","7.1.9-1+sparc64","7.1~rc2-1~exp1","7.1~rc3-1~exp1","7.1~rc4-1~exp1","7.1~rc4-1~exp2","7.1~rc5-1~exp1","7.1~rc7-1~exp1","7.2.2-1~exp1","7.2~rc3-1~exp1","7.2~rc5-1~exp1","7.2~rc7-1~exp1"],"ecosystem_specific":{"urgency":"not
