MediumMetricsAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 5.17
Description
The issue is related to the mishandling of the
tegra xusb find port node return value in the Linux kernel's drivers/phy/tegra/xusb.c file. This can lead to a denial of service. The problem arises because callers expect NULL in the error case, but an error pointer is used instead.Recommendations
For versions prior to 5.17, update to version 5.17 or later to resolve the issue.
