NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-headers package and not the kernel-headers package as distributed by RHEL.

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

usb: chipidea: ci_hdrc_imx: fix usbmisc handling

usbmisc is an optional device property so it is totally valid for the corresponding data->usbmisc_data to have a NULL value.

Check that before dereferencing the pointer.
