However,\nnot initializing all members may cause subtle issues, which are only\nexposed when CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_PATTERN or CONFIG_INIT_STACK_NONE is\nenabled.\n\nltc428_clk_provider_setup() does not fill in any parent clocks, and\nassumes that init.num_parents is NULL.  However, the latter in\nuninitialized, and thus may cause a crash.\n\nMake sure all members are fully initialized, to fix such bugs, and to\navoid future breakage when converting drivers to a different method for\nspecifying the parents.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/80b46a3d066d4e2c1dd4edb90d4aa3f22ca79f39","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/aa08ce1ffaf36c7bdd3edd0ad65f72413639bfad","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c4a96da5a3f132d80aa971ddbeb86808539ba0e6","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e317326d1755ea054b98e7a4833b929157461c35"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:56:02.509636177+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-98001","score":0.00168,"percentile":0.05989,"date":"2026-10-26"},"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).
