CVE-2025-40224

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description The Linux kernel driver allocates memory for sensor data using devm kzalloc(), but lacks a check to ensure the allocation was successful. If memory allocation fails, attempting to dereference the resulting NULL pointer can cause a kernel crash. A NULL pointer check has been added, and the function now returns -ENOMEM to handle allocation failures correctly.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
