From 8249d65ce88e7fec94f80f0588c4792a19086d39 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rand Deeb Date: Wed, 6 Mar 2024 15:30:28 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] ssb: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in ssb_device_uevent() BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2075154 [ Upstream commit 789c17185fb0f39560496c2beab9b57ce1d0cbe7 ] The ssb_device_uevent() function first attempts to convert the 'dev' pointer to 'struct ssb_device *'. However, it mistakenly dereferences 'dev' before performing the NULL check, potentially leading to a NULL pointer dereference if 'dev' is NULL. To fix this issue, move the NULL check before dereferencing the 'dev' pointer, ensuring that the pointer is valid before attempting to use it.
