FKIE_CVE-2019-19227

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2019-11-22 14:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 02:26
Summary
In the AppleTalk subsystem in the Linux kernel before 5.1, there is a potential NULL pointer dereference because register_snap_client may return NULL. This will lead to denial of service in net/appletalk/aarp.c and net/appletalk/ddp.c, as demonstrated by unregister_snap_client, aka CID-9804501fa122.
