CVSS 3.1
5.5 mediumCVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:HCVE-2023-52863
Medium (5.5) in linux linux kernel. EPSS 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (axi-fan-control) Fix possible NULL pointer dereference
axi_fan_control_irq_handler(), dependent on the private
axi_fan_control_data structure, might be called before the hwmon
device is registered. That will cause an "Unable to handle kernel
NULL pointer dereference" error.
