- Summary
- net: mdio: Check regmap pointer returned by device_node_to_regmap()
- Details
-
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: mdio: Check regmap pointer returned by devicenodeto_regmap()
The call to devicenodetoregmap() in airohamdioprobe() can return an ERRPTR() if regmap initialization fails. Currently, the driver stores the pointer without validation, which could lead to a crash if it is later dereferenced.
Add an IS_ERR() check and return the corresponding error code to make the probe path more robust.
