This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled USB: serial: ti_usb_3410_5052: fix NULL-deref at open to my usb git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git in the usb-linus branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From ef079936d3cd09e63612834fe2698eeada0d8e3f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 3 Jan 2017 16:40:03 +0100 Subject: USB: serial: ti_usb_3410_5052: fix NULL-deref at open Fix NULL-pointer dereference in open() should a malicious device lack the expected endpoints: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000030 ..
