NULL Pointer Dereference Affecting kernel-zfcpdump-modules-internal package, versions *

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-zfcpdump-modules-internal package and not the kernel-zfcpdump-modules-internal package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

thermal: Fix NULL pointer dereferences in of_thermal_ functions

of_parse_thermal_zones() parses the thermal-zones node and registers a thermal_zone device for each subnode. However, if a thermal zone is consuming a thermal sensor and that thermal sensor device hasn't probed yet, an attempt to set trip_point_*_temp for that thermal zone device can cause a NULL pointer dereference. Fix it.

console:/sys/class/thermal/thermal_zone87 # echo 120000 > trip_point_0_temp ... Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000020 ...

While at it, fix the possible NULL pointer dereference in other functions as well: of_thermal_get_temp(), of_thermal_set_emul_temp(), of_thermal_get_trend().
