NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-debug-core package and not the kernel-debug-core package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

media: pci: cx23885: check cx23885_vdev_init() return

cx23885_vdev_init() can return a NULL pointer, but that pointer is used in the next line without a check.

Add a NULL pointer check and go to the error unwind if it is NULL.
