CVE-2021-47207
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: gus: fix null pointer dereference on pointer block The pointer block return from snd_gf1_dma_next_block could be null, so there is a potential null pointer dereference issue.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.23%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
