Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-02-26 03:05:00 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

pinctrl: aspeed: Fix potential NULL dereference in aspeed_pinmux_set_mux()

pdesc could be null but still dereference pdesc->name and it will lead to
a null pointer access. So we move a null check before dereference.
