Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. The Advanced Linux Sound Architecture on Chip (ASoC) subsystem, specifically within the Qualcomm qdsp6 topology component, fails to verify the type of a virtual widget before accessing its private data. This oversight could allow an attacker to cause incorrect memory access, potentially leading to a denial of service (DoS) condition.
