Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
mtd: parsers: qcom: Fix kernel panic on skipped partition<br />
<br />
In the event of a skipped partition (case when the entry name is empty)<br />
the kernel panics in the cleanup function as the name entry is NULL.<br />
Rework the parser logic by first checking the real partition number and<br />
then allocate the space and set the data for the valid partitions.<br />
<br />
The logic was also fundamentally wrong as with a skipped partition, the<br />
parts number returned was incorrect by not decreasing it for the skipped<br />
partitions.
