Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
clk: zynq: Prevent null pointer dereference caused by kmalloc failure
The kmalloc() in zynq_clk_setup() will return null if the
physical memory has run out. As a result, if we use snprintf()
to write data to the null address, the null pointer dereference
bug will happen.
This patch uses a stack variable to replace the kmalloc().
Affected configurations
• linux linux kernel (>= 3.11 < 5.15.153)
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.1.83)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.6.23)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.7.11)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.8 < 6.8.2)
