A fixed version on one release line is not the upgrade target for every line. Check your exact version and any vendor backports.

Description

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

ASoC: mediatek: mt8365-afe-pcm: fix possible NULL-pointer dereferences in mt8365_afe_suspend()

mt8365_afe_suspend() allocates the register backup buffer with devm_kcalloc(), but does not check for allocation failure before using the returned pointer. This may lead to a NULL pointer dereference when accessing afe->reg_back_up[i].

Add the missing NULL check and return -ENOMEM on allocation failure after disabling the main clock.

Also propagate the return value of mt8365_afe_suspend() in mt8365_afe_dev_runtime_suspend() so that the suspended state is not updated when suspend fails.
