How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.7 kernel-default-livepatch to version 6.4.0-150700.53.90.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-default-livepatch package and not the kernel-default-livepatch package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.7 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

tty: skip cdev_del() when no cdev is registered

TTY device registration can fail before a cdev is allocated. Serial core keeps the port so setserial can still use it, and later removal passes the NULL cdev slot to cdev_del(), causing a NULL-pointer dereference.

Only delete the cdev when the slot is not NULL.
