Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: can: mcp251xfd: mcp251xfd_probe(): fix an error pointer dereference in probe When we converted this code to use dev_err_probe() we accidentally
removed a return. It means that if devm_clk_get() it will lead to an
Oops when we call clk_get_rate() on the next line.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: can: mcp251xfd: mcp251xfd_probe(): corrige una desreferencia de puntero de error en la sonda Cuando convertimos este código para usar dev_err_probe() eliminamos accidentalmente un retorno. Significa que si devm_clk_get() generará un Ups cuando llamemos a clk_get_rate() en la siguiente línea.
