Doc Text:
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's `myrs` RAID controller driver has been resolved, where a NULL pointer dereference could occur during hardware initialization failure. In `myrs_detect()`, if `privdata->hw_init()` failed, the subsequent call to `myrs_cleanup()` attempted to access `cs->disable_intr`, which was NULL, causing a kernel crash.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2024-07-16 12:48:57 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: myrs: Fix crash in error case

In myrs_detect(), cs->disable_intr is NULL when privdata->hw_init() fails
with non-zero. In this case, myrs_cleanup(cs) will call a NULL ptr and
crash the kernel.
