Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> cpufreq/longhaul: handle NULL policy in longhaul_exit<br /> <br /> longhaul_exit() was calling cpufreq_cpu_get(0) without checking<br /> for a NULL policy pointer. On some systems, this could lead to a<br /> NULL dereference and a kernel warning or panic.<br /> <br /> This patch adds a check using unlikely() and returns early if the<br /> policy is NULL.<br /> <br /> Bugzilla: #219962
