In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: sched: cake: fix null pointer access issue when cake_init() fails

When the default qdisc is cake, if the qdisc of dev_queue fails to be
inited during mqprio_init(), cake_reset() is invoked to clear
resources. In this case, the tins is NULL, and it will cause gpf issue.

The process is as follows:
qdisc_create_dflt()
	cake_init()
		q->tins = kvcalloc(...)        --->failed, q->tins is NULL
	...
	qdisc_put()
		...
		cake_reset()
			...
			cake_dequeue_one()
				b = &q->tins[...]   --->q->tins is NULL

The following is the Call Trace information:
