In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Revert kobject: Remove redundant checks for whether ktype is NULL
This reverts commit 1b28cb81dab7c1eedc6034206f4e8d644046ad31.
It is reported to cause problems, so revert it for now until the root cause can be found.
A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit.
