      <title>CVE-2023-52567 — serial: 8250_port: Check IRQ data before use</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2023-52567</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;serial: 8250_port: Check IRQ data before use&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In case the leaf driver wants to use IRQ polling (irq = 0) and
IIR register shows that an interrupt happened in the 8250 hardware
the IRQ data can be NULL. In such a case we need to skip the wake
event as we came to this path from the timer interrupt and quite
likely system is already awake.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Without this fix we have got an Oops:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;serial8250: ttyS0 at I/O 0x3f8 (irq = 0, base_baud = 115200) is a 16550A
    ...
    BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000010
    RIP: 0010:serial8250_handle_irq+0x7c/0x240
    Call Trace:
     ? serial8250_handle_irq+0x7c/0x240
     ? __pfx_serial8250_timeout+0x10/0x10&lt;/p&gt;</description>
