On that first iteration, evaluating prev_o\nreads an indeterminate value. If it is non-NULL, the condition\ndereferences a stale or invalid pointer, potentially faulting or\nincorrectly skipping the first OPP.\n\nInitialize prev_o to NULL. This matches the intent as well: there is no\nprevious OPP to compare against on the first iteration.\n\nFound with Clang's -Wconditional-uninitialized.","published":"2026-09-03T13:06:15.000Z","lastModified":"2026-09-04T05:17:15.000Z","status":"Received","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":7.8,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":[],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00165,"percentile":0.05681,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.17%).
