NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream qemu-kvm-docs package and not the qemu-kvm-docs package as distributed by Centos.

QEMU through 8.0.4 accesses a NULL pointer in nvme_directive_receive in hw/nvme/ctrl.c because there is no check for whether an endurance group is configured before checking whether Flexible Data Placement is enabled.
