Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-10-04 16:07:56 UTC 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

media: coda: Add check for dcoda_iram_alloc

As the coda_iram_alloc may return NULL pointer,
it should be better to check the return value
in order to avoid NULL poineter dereference,
same as the others.
