Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: cs46xx: Handle SCB creation failures before dereferencing
Date: Fri, 30 Oct 2026 18:25:27 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261030142529.415697-1-a.kazinsky@ideco.ru> (raw)

With CONFIG_PM_SLEEP enabled, cs46xx_dsp_create_scb() can return NULL
if kmemdup() fails to allocate the SCB data saved for resume.
cs46xx_dsp_scb_and_task_init() and _dsp_create_generic_scb() dereference
the returned pointer without checking it, causing a NULL pointer
dereference on allocation failure.

Check both return values before accessing the SCB descriptors.
Return -ENOMEM when creating the null SCB fails and propagate NULL
from _dsp_create_generic_scb().

Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE
static analysis tool.
