How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.6 kernel-syms-azure to version 6.4.0-150600.8.5.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-syms-azure package and not the kernel-syms-azure 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:

net: ll_temac: platform_get_resource replaced by wrong function

The function platform_get_resource was replaced with devm_platform_ioremap_resource_byname and is called using 0 as name.

This eventually ends up in platform_get_resource_byname in the call stack, where it causes a null pointer in strcmp.

if (type == resource_type(r) &amp;&amp; !strcmp(r-&gt;name, name))

It should have been replaced with devm_platform_ioremap_resource.
