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

crypto: ccp - Fix null pointer dereference in __sev_snp_shutdown_locked

Fix a null pointer dereference induced by DEBUG_TEST_DRIVER_REMOVE.
Return from __sev_snp_shutdown_locked() if the psp_device or the
sev_device structs are not initialized. Without the fix, the driver will
produce the following splat:

ccp 0000:55:00.5: enabling device (0000 -> 0002)
ccp 0000:55:00.5: sev enabled
ccp 0000:55:00.5: psp enabled
