CVE-2026-23019: net: marvell: prestera: fix NULL dereference on devlink_alloc() failure

Published Jan 31, 2026
·
Updated

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

net: marvell: prestera: fix NULL dereference on devlinkalloc() failure

devlinkalloc() may return NULL on allocation failure, but presteradevlinkalloc() unconditionally calls devlinkpriv() on the returned pointer.

This leads to a NULL pointer dereference if devlink allocation fails. Add a check for a NULL devlink pointer and return NULL early to avoid the crash.
