USN-8963-1: Linux kernel (NVIDIA Tegra) vulnerabilities

Severity not listed 2 CVEs Published Nov 3, 2026 at 11:04 AM UTC

Summary

Duoming Zhou discovered race conditions in the AX.25 amateur radio protocol implementation in the Linux kernel, leading to use-after-free vulnerabilities. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2022-1205)

It was discovered that the i.MX clock driver in the Linux kernel did not properly handle certain memory allocation failure conditions, leading to a null pointer dereference vulnerability. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2022-3114)
