CWE-476
NULL Pointer Dereference
Publication date:

Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
net: phy: dp83822: Fix NULL pointer dereference on DP83825 devices<br />
<br />
The probe() function is only used for DP83822 and DP83826 PHY,<br />
leaving the private data pointer uninitialized for the DP83825 models<br />
which causes a NULL pointer dereference in the recently introduced/changed<br />
functions dp8382x_config_init() and dp83822_set_wol().<br />
<br />
Add the dp8382x_probe() function, so all PHY models will have a valid<br />
private data pointer to fix this issue and also prevent similar issues<br />
in the future.
