Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
spi: cs42l43: Property entry should be a null-terminated array
The software node does not specify a count of property entries, so the
array must be null-terminated.
When unterminated, this can lead to a fault in the downstream cs35l56
amplifier driver, because the node parse walks off the end of the
array into unknown memory.
