VLAI
Summary
go-merkledag's ProtoNode may be modified such that common method calls may panic
Details

Impact

A ProtoNode may be modified in such a way as to cause various encode errors which will trigger a panic on common method calls that don't allow for error returns.

A ProtoNode should only be able to encode to valid DAG-PB, attempting to encode invalid DAG-PB forms will result in an error from the codec. Manipulation of an existing (newly created or decoded) ProtoNode using the modifier methods did not account for certain states that would place the ProtoNode into an unencodeable form.

Due to conformance with the github.com/ipfs/go-block-format#Block and github.com/ipfs/go-ipld-format#Node interfaces, certain methods, which internally require a re-encode if state has changed, will panic due to the inability to return an error.

Additionally, use of the ProtoNode#SetCidBuilder() method to set a non-functioning CidBuilder (such as one that refers to a multihash where an implementation of that hash function is not available) may cause the same methods to panic as a new CID is required but cannot be created.

Patches

Releases involving fixes for this issue are v0.8.0 and v0.8.1. The recommended minimum version is v0.8.1.

  • Additional checks are performed on ProtoNode state changes to avoid the possibility of creating unencodeable forms, errors are returned where this is the case.
  • The builder passed in to SetCidBuilder() is inspected to attempt to determine if it is usable to generate CIDs, otherwise an error is returned.
  • The panics have been removed and replaced with default values (empty byte slice for RawData() and a default zero-bytes DAG-PB CID for methods involving CIDs).

Workarounds

These workarounds are available when using impacted versions to avoid panic conditions, and may be generally appropriate in order to provide meaningful feedback to users and avoid generating bad, or unexpected encoded data:

  • Sanitise inputs when allowing user-input to set a new CidBuilder on a ProtoNode.
  • Sanitise Tsize (Link#Size) values such that they are a reasonable byte-size for sub-DAGs where derived from user-input.

Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bpf: Take return from set_memory_rox() into account with bpf_jit_binary_lock_ro()

set_memory_rox() can fail, leaving memory unprotected.

Check return and bail out when bpf_jit_binary_lock_ro() returns an error.

GHSA-XRR8-P4PF-HFWR

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-04-16 15:34 – Updated: 2026-06-19 15:33
VLAI
Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nfsd: don't ignore the return code of svc_proc_register()

Currently, nfsd_proc_stat_init() ignores the return value of svc_proc_register(). If the procfile creation fails, then the kernel will WARN when it tries to remove the entry later.

Fix nfsd_proc_stat_init() to return the same type of pointer as svc_proc_register(), and fix up nfsd_net_init() to check that and fail the nfsd_net construction if it occurs.

svc_proc_register() can fail if the dentry can't be allocated, or if an identical dentry already exists. The second case is pretty unlikely in the nfsd_net construction codepath, so if this happens, return -ENOMEM.

Severity
5.5 (Medium)

GHSA-XW6G-JJVF-WWF9

Vulnerability from github – Published: 2022-06-20 22:25 – Updated: 2022-06-20 22:25
VLAI
Summary
Invalid file request can crash server
Details

Impact

Certain types of invalid files requests are not handled properly and can crash the server. If you are running multiple Parse Server instances in a cluster, the availability impact may be low; if you are running Parse Server as a single instance without redundancy, the availability impact may be high.

Patches

To prevent this, invalid requests are now properly handled.

Workarounds

None

Mitigation MIT-53
Implementation

Check the results of all functions that return a value and verify that the value is expected.

Mitigation MIT-56
Implementation

For any pointers that could have been modified or provided from a function that can return NULL, check the pointer for NULL before use. When working with a multithreaded or otherwise asynchronous environment, ensure that proper locking APIs are used to lock before the check, and unlock when it has finished [REF-1484].

Mitigation
Implementation

Ensure that you account for all possible return values from the function.

Mitigation
Implementation

When designing a function, make sure you return a value or throw an exception in case of an error.
