Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-05-20 16:03:10 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ptp: ocp: Fix NULL dereference in Adva board SMA sysfs operations

On Adva boards, SMA sysfs store/get operations can call
__handle_signal_outputs() or __handle_signal_inputs() while the `irig`
and `dcf` pointers are uninitialized, leading to a NULL pointer
dereference in __handle_signal() and causing a kernel crash. Adva boards
don't use `irig` or `dcf` functionality, so add Adva-specific callbacks
`ptp_ocp_sma_adva_set_outputs()` and `ptp_ocp_sma_adva_set_inputs()` that
avoid invoking `irig` or `dcf` input/output routines.
