Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ti: icss-iep: Fix possible NULL pointer dereference for perout request
The ICSS IEP driver tracks perout and pps enable state with flags.
Currently when disabling pps and perout signals during icss_iep_exit(),
results in NULL pointer dereference for perout.
To fix the null pointer dereference issue, the icss_iep_perout_enable_hw
function can be modified to directly clear the IEP CMP registers when
disabling PPS or PEROUT, without referencing the ptp_perout_request
structure, as its contents are irrelevant in this case.
Affected configurations
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.6.70 < 6.6.88)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.12.9 < 6.12.25)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.13.1 < 6.14.4)
• linux linux kernel 6.13
• linux linux kernel 6.15
