In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net:
phy: qcom: at803x: fix kernel panic with at8031_probe On reworking and
splitting the at803x driver, in splitting function of at803x PHYs it was
added a NULL dereference bug where priv is referenced before it’s actually
allocated and then is tried to write to for the is_1000basex and is_fiber
variables in the case of at8031, writing on the wrong address. Fix this by
correctly setting priv local variable only after at803x_probe is called and
actually allocates priv in the phydev struct.
