Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gpiolib: Fix crash on error in gpiochip_get_ngpios() The gpiochip_get_ngpios() uses chip_*() macros to print messages. However these macros rely on gpiodev to be initialised and set, which is not the case when called via bgpio_init(). In such a case the printing messages will crash on NULL pointer dereference. Replace chip_*() macros by the respective dev_*() ones to avoid such crash.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 6.6 < 6.6.79) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.12.16) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.13 < 6.13.4) • linux linux kernel 6.14
