How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.6 kernel-source to version 6.4.0-150600.23.84.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-source package and not the kernel-source package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.6 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

remoteproc: pru: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in pru_rproc_set_ctable()

pru_rproc_set_ctable() accessed rproc->priv before the IS_ERR_OR_NULL check, which could lead to a null pointer dereference. Move the pru assignment, ensuring we never dereference a NULL rproc pointer.
