Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-05-08 07:01:20 UTC 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

usb: chipidea: ci_hdrc_imx: fix usbmisc handling

usbmisc is an optional device property so it is totally valid for the
corresponding data->usbmisc_data to have a NULL value.

Check that before dereferencing the pointer.

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Svace static
analysis tool.
