NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-rt_debug-livepatch-devel package and not the kernel-rt_debug-livepatch-devel package as distributed by SLES.

In the Linux kernel through 5.4.6, there is a NULL pointer dereference in drivers/scsi/libsas/sas_discover.c because of mishandling of port disconnection during discovery, related to a PHY down race condition, aka CID-f70267f379b5.
