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:

firmware: qcom: scm: smc: Handle missing SCM device

Commit ca61d6836e6f ("firmware: qcom: scm: fix a NULL-pointer dereference") makes it explicit that qcom_scm_get_tzmem_pool() can return NULL, therefore its users should handle this.
