| Doc Text: |
A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's hwmon driver for the w83792d module where a NULL pointer dereference was caused by the lm75[] obsolete structure field. During specific device read operations, if certain conditions are met, the driver may attempt to access a NULL pointer because this unnecessary field is being retained, which can lead to system crashes or instability.

The result of automatic check (that is developed by Alexander Larkin) for this CVE-2021-47385 is: CHECK Maybe valid. Check manually. with impact MODERATE (that is approximation based on flags NULLPTR SIMPLEFIX ; these flags parsed automatically based on patche data). Such automatic check happens only for Low/Moderates (and only when not from reporter, but parsing already existing CVE). Highs always checked manually (I check it myself and then we check it again in Remediation team). In rare cases some of the Moderates could be increased to High later.
