Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-livepatch-6_4_0-150700_53_22-default package and not the kernel-livepatch-6_4_0-150700_53_22-default 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:

scsi: qla4xxx: Prevent a potential error pointer dereference

The qla4xxx_get_ep_fwdb() function is supposed to return NULL on error, but qla4xxx_ep_connect() returns error pointers. Propagating the error pointers will lead to an Oops in the caller, so change the error pointers to NULL.
