Since struct\nadis is zero-initialized by devm_iio_device_alloc(), adis->ops is NULL\nwhen adis_init() is called, causing a NULL pointer dereference:\n\n    Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000000\n    pc : adis_init+0xc0/0x118\n    Call trace:\n     adis_init+0xc0/0x118\n     adis16480_probe+0xe0/0x670\n\nFix this by checking if adis->ops is NULL before dereferencing it,\nfalling through to assign the default ops in that case.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":5.5},"cwes":["CWE-476"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1a48f94c63a078e7b6a2e59a637fc0858dc6510c","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9990cd4f8827bd1ae3fb6eb7407630d8d463c430","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ba19dd366528b961430f5195c2e382420703074f"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:33:55.586217763+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-43356","score":0.00121,"percentile":0.01874,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
