In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hwmon: Handle failure to register sensor with thermal zone correctly If an attempt is made to a sensor with a thermal zone and it fails, the call to devm_thermal_zone_of_sensor_register() may return -ENODEV. This may result in crashes similar to the following. Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000000003cd ...

If the call fails with -ENODEV, report that the sensor was not attached to a thermal zone but continue to register the hwmon device.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: hwmon: Maneja la falla al registrar correctamente el sensor con zona térmica. Si se intenta acceder a un sensor con zona térmica y falla, la llamada a devm_thermal_zone_of_sensor_register() puede devolver -ENODEV. Esto puede provocar fallos similares a los siguientes. No se puede manejar la desreferencia del puntero NULL del kernel en la dirección virtual 00000000000003cd...
