CVE-2024-39466 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade SLES:15.6 kernel-syms to version 6.4.0-150600.23.14.2 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-syms package and not the kernel-syms 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:
thermal/drivers/qcom/lmh: Check for SCM availability at probe
Up until now, the necessary scm availability check has not been performed, leading to possible null pointer dereferences (which did happen for me on RB1).
Fix that.
