|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2024-52546 | Med | 0.34 | 5.3 | 0.00 | Dec 3, 2024 | An unauthenticated attacker can perform a null pointer dereference in the DHIP Service (UDP port 37810). This vulnerability has been resolved in firmware version 2.800.0000000.8.R.20241111. | |
| CVE-2024-47586 | Med | 0.34 | 5.3 | 0.00 | Nov 12, 2024 | SAP NetWeaver Application Server for ABAP and ABAP Platform allows an unauthenticated attacker to send a maliciously crafted http request which could cause a null pointer dereference in the kernel. This dereference will result in the system crashing and rebooting, causing the system to be temporarily unavailable. There is no impact on Confidentiality or Integrity. | |
| CVE-2024-34044 | Med | 0.34 | 5.3 | 0.00 | Apr 30, 2024 | The O-RAN E2T I-Release buildPrometheusList function can have a NULL pointer dereference because peerInfo can be NULL. | |
| CVE-2023-50432 | Med | 0.34 | 5.3 | 0.00 | Apr 29, 2024 | simple-dhcp-server through ec976d2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) by sending a DHCP packet without any option fields, which causes free_packet in dhcp_packet.c to dereference a NULL pointer. | |
| CVE-2024-24856 | Med | 0.34 | 5.3 | 0.00 | Apr 17, 2024 | The memory allocation function ACPI_ALLOCATE_ZEROED does not guarantee a successful allocation, but the subsequent code directly dereferences the pointer that receives it, which may lead to null pointer dereference. To fix this issue, a null pointer check should be added. If it is null, return exception code AE_NO_MEMORY. | |
| CVE-2024-23083 | Med | 0.34 | 5.3 | 0.00 | Apr 10, 2024 | Time4J Base v5.9.3 was discovered to contain a NullPointerException via the component net.time4j.format.internal.FormatUtils::useDefaultWeekmodel(Locale). NOTE: this is disputed by multiple third parties who believe there was not reasonable evidence to determine the existence of a vulnerability. The submission may have been based on a tool that is not sufficiently robust for vulnerability identification. | |
| CVE-2023-46049 | Med | 0.34 | 5.3 | 0.00 | Mar 27, 2024 | LLVM 15.0.0 has a NULL pointer dereference in the parseOneMetadata() function via a crafted pdflatex.fmt file (or perhaps a crafted .o file) to llvm-lto. NOTE: this is disputed because the relationship between pdflatex.fmt and any LLVM language front end is not explained, and because a crash of the llvm-lto application should be categorized as a usability problem. | |
| CVE-2024-20266 | Med | 0.34 | 5.3 | 0.00 | Mar 13, 2024 | A vulnerability in the DHCP version 4 (DHCPv4) server feature of Cisco IOS XR Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to trigger a crash of the dhcpd process, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. This vulnerability exists because certain DHCPv4 messages are improperly validated when they are processed by an affected device. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a malformed DHCPv4 message to an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause a crash of the dhcpd process. While the dhcpd process is restarting, which may take approximately two minutes, DHCPv4 server services are unavailable on the affected device. This could temporarily prevent network access to clients that join the network during that time period and rely on the DHCPv4 server of the affected device. Notes: Only the dhcpd process crashes and eventually restarts automatically. The router does not reload. This vulnerability only applies to DHCPv4. DHCP version 6 (DHCPv6) is not affected. | |
| CVE-2017-1000360 | Med | 0.34 | 5.3 | 0.00 | Apr 24, 2017 | StreamCorruptedException and NullPointerException in OpenDaylight odl-mdsal-xsql. Controller launches exceptions in the console. Component: OpenDaylight odl-mdsal-xsql is vulnerable to this flaw. Version: The tested versions are OpenDaylight 3.3 and 4.0. | |
| CVE-2026-6845 | Med | 0.33 | 5.0 | 0.00 | Apr 22, 2026 | A flaw was found in binutils, specifically within the `readelf` utility. This vulnerability allows a local attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by tricking a user into processing a specially crafted Executable and Linkable Format (ELF) file. The exploitation of this flaw can lead to the system becoming unresponsive due to excessive resource consumption or a program crash. | |
| CVE-2026-39956 | Med | 0.33 | 6.1 | 0.00 | Apr 13, 2026 | jq is a command-line JSON processor. In commits after 69785bf77f86e2ea1b4a20ca86775916889e91c9, the _strindices builtin in jq's src/builtin.c passes its arguments directly to jv_string_indexes() without verifying they are strings, and jv_string_indexes() in src/jv.c relies solely on assert() checks that are stripped in release builds compiled with -DNDEBUG. This allows an attacker to crash jq trivially with input like _strindices(0), and by crafting a numeric value whose IEEE-754 bit pattern maps to a chosen pointer, achieve a controlled pointer dereference and limited memory read/probe primitive. Any deployment that evaluates untrusted jq filters against a release build is vulnerable. This issue has been patched in commit fdf8ef0f0810e3d365cdd5160de43db46f57ed03. | |
| CVE-2025-23332 | Med | 0.33 | 5.0 | 0.00 | Oct 23, 2025 | NVIDIA Display Driver for Linux contains a vulnerability in a kernel module, where an attacker might be able to trigger a null pointer deference. A successful exploit of this vulnerability might lead to denial of service. | |
| CVE-2025-20262 | Med | 0.33 | 5.0 | 0.00 | Aug 27, 2025 | A vulnerability in the Protocol Independent Multicast Version 6 (PIM6) feature of Cisco Nexus 3000 Series Switches and Cisco Nexus 9000 Series Switches in standalone NX-OS mode could allow an authenticated, low-privileged, remote attacker to trigger a crash of the PIM6 process, resulting in a denial of service (DoS) condition. This vulnerability is due to improper processing of PIM6 ephemeral data queries. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted ephemeral query to an affected device through one of the following methods: NX-API REST, NETCONF, RESTConf, gRPC, or Model Driven Telemetry. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the PIM6 process to crash and restart, causing potential adjacency flaps and resulting in a DoS of the PIM6 and ephemeral query processes. | |
| CVE-2025-24031 | Med | 0.33 | — | 0.00 | Feb 10, 2025 | PAM-PKCS#11 is a Linux-PAM login module that allows a X.509 certificate based user login. In versions 0.6.12 and prior, the pam_pkcs11 module segfaults when a user presses ctrl-c/ctrl-d when they are asked for a PIN. When a user enters no PIN at all, `pam_get_pwd` will never initialize the password buffer pointer and as such `cleanse` will try to dereference an uninitialized pointer. On my system this pointer happens to have the value 3 most of the time when running sudo and as such it will segfault. The most likely impact to a system affected by this issue is an availability impact due to a daemon that uses PAM crashing. As of time of publication, a patch for the issue is unavailable. | |
| CVE-2024-6157 | Med | 0.33 | 5.1 | 0.00 | Oct 10, 2024 | An attacker who successfully exploited these vulnerabilities could cause the robot to stop. A vulnerability exists in the PROFINET stack included in the RobotWare versions listed below. This vulnerability arises under specific condition when specially crafted message is processed by the system. Below are reported vulnerabilities in the Robot Ware versions. * IRC5- RobotWare 6 < 6.15.06 except 6.10.10, and 6.13.07 | |
| CVE-2024-34952 | Med | 0.33 | 5.0 | 0.00 | May 20, 2024 | taurusxin ncmdump v1.3.2 was discovered to contain a segmentation violation via the NeteaseCrypt::FixMetadata() function at /src/ncmcrypt.cpp. This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted .ncm file. | |
| CVE-2024-24855 | Med | 0.33 | 5.0 | 0.00 | Feb 5, 2024 | A race condition was found in the Linux kernel's scsi device driver in lpfc_unregister_fcf_rescan() function. This can result in a null pointer dereference issue, possibly leading to a kernel panic or denial of service issue. | |
| CVE-2016-2391 | Med | 0.33 | 5.0 | 0.00 | Jun 16, 2016 | The ohci_bus_start function in the USB OHCI emulation support (hw/usb/hcd-ohci.c) in QEMU allows local guest OS administrators to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and QEMU process crash) via vectors related to multiple eof_timers. | |
| CVE-2016-2782 | Med | 0.33 | 4.6 | 0.00 | Apr 27, 2016 | The treo_attach function in drivers/usb/serial/visor.c in the Linux kernel before 4.5 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by inserting a USB device that lacks a (1) bulk-in or (2) interrupt-in endpoint. | |
| CVE-2015-7515 | Med | 0.33 | 4.6 | 0.01 | Apr 27, 2016 | The aiptek_probe function in drivers/input/tablet/aiptek.c in the Linux kernel before 4.4 allows physically proximate attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) via a crafted USB device that lacks endpoints. |
