Detail

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

iwlwifi: mvm: check debugfs_dir ptr before use

When "debugfs=off" is used on the kernel command line, iwiwifi's mvm module uses an invalid/unchecked debugfs_dir pointer and causes a BUG:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000004f
