CWEhttps://cwe.mitre.org/data/definitions/476.html

An issue was discovered in drivers/media/test-drivers/vidtv/vidtv_bridge.c in the Linux kernel 6.2. There is a NULL pointer dereference in vidtv_mux_stop_thread. In vidtv_stop_streaming, after dvb->mux=NULL occurs, it executes vidtv_mux_stop_thread(dvb->mux).

Weakness

The product dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid but is NULL.
