CVE-2024-50103

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel versions prior to 6.6.61

Description: A NULL Pointer Dereference issue has been identified in the Linux kernel, specifically in the asoc qcom lpass cpu platform probe() function. This issue arises when a devm kzalloc() call returns a NULL pointer without additional checks, potentially triggering a NULL Pointer Dereference. The fix involves adding a NULL check for the returned pointer.

Recommendations: For versions prior to 6.6.61, update to version 6.6.61 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider adding a NULL check for the returned pointer in the asoc qcom lpass cpu platform probe() function until a patch is available.
