A NULL pointer dereference vulnerability was identified and fixed in the Linux kernel's ALSA hda cs35l41 driver. The issue occurs because the return value of the function acpi_evaluate_dsm() was dereferenced without checking for NULL, which could cause a crash. This flaw has been resolved by adding a proper NULL check. The vulnerability affects multiple specific Linux kernel versions prior to 6.17.0-1008.8 and others as listed. The vendor has released official kernel updates addressing this and other security issues.
