In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

HID: intel-ish-hid: fix NULL-ptr-deref in ishtp_bus_remove_all_clients

During a warm reset flow, the cl-&gt;device pointer may be NULL if the
reset occurs while clients are still being enumerated. Accessing
cl-&gt;device-&gt;reference_count without a NULL check leads to a kernel panic.

This issue was identified during multi-unit warm reboot stress clycles.
Add a defensive NULL check for cl-&gt;device to ensure stability under
such intensive testing conditions.

KASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0000000000000000-0000000000000007]
Workqueue: ish_fw_update_wq fw_reset_work_fn

Call Trace:
 ishtp_bus_remove_all_clients+0xbe/0x130 [intel_ishtp]
 ishtp_reset_handler+0x85/0x1a0 [intel_ishtp]
 fw_reset_work_fn+0x8a/0xc0 [intel_ish_ipc]

    <Details xml:lang="en:us" source="Red Hat">
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Intel Integrated Sensor Hub (ISH) HID driver. During a warm reset, a NULL-pointer dereference can occur if clients are still being enumerated. This can lead to a kernel panic, causing the system to become unstable or unavailable, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
