Technical description

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

nvmem: zynqmp_nvmem: unbreak driver after cleanup

Commit 29be47fcd6a0 ("nvmem: zynqmp_nvmem: zynqmp_nvmem_probe cleanup")

changed the driver to expect the device pointer to be passed as the

"context", but in nvmem the context parameter comes from nvmem_config.priv

which is never set - Leading to null pointer exceptions when the device is

accessed.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
