NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rv package and not the rv package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

arm_mpam: Fix a NULL pointer dereference on unbinding after an error interrupt

If a user unbinds an MSC after mpam_disable() has been run in response to an error interrupt then a dereference of a NULL pointer occurs as mpam_disable() sets the drvdata to NULL. Add an early return to the driver remove callback to avoid this.
