CVE-2024-43824 Information

Description

In the Linux kernel the following vulnerability has been resolved:

PCI: endpoint: pci-epf-test: Make use of cached ’epc_features’ in pci_epf_test_core_init()

Instead of getting the epc_features from pci_epc_get_features() API use the cached pci_epf_test::epc_features value to avoid the NULL check. Since the NULL check is already performed in pci_epf_test_bind() having one more check in pci_epf_test_core_init() is redundant and it is not possible to hit the NULL pointer dereference.
