Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-02-27 03:02:10 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

firmware: qcom: scm: smc: Handle missing SCM device

Commit ca61d6836e6f ("firmware: qcom: scm: fix a NULL-pointer
dereference") makes it explicit that qcom_scm_get_tzmem_pool() can
return NULL, therefore its users should handle this.
