Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: vidtv: fix NULL pointer dereference in vidtv_channel_pmt_match_sections
syzbot reported a general protection fault in vidtv_psi_desc_assign [1].
vidtv_psi_pmt_stream_init() can return NULL on memory allocation
failure, but vidtv_channel_pmt_match_sections() does not check for
this. When tail is NULL, the subsequent call to
vidtv_psi_desc_assign(&tail->descriptor, desc) dereferences a NULL
pointer offset, causing a general protection fault.
Add a NULL check after vidtv_psi_pmt_stream_init(). On failure, clean
up the already-allocated stream chain and return.

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's vidtv driver. This vulnerability stems from a failure to check for a null return value during memory allocation within the vidtv_psi_pmt_stream_init function. This oversight can lead to a null pointer dereference in vidtv_channel_pmt_match_sections, causing a general protection fault. The primary impact of this flaw is a system crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
