CVE-2025-40089
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
cxl/features: Add check for no entries in cxl_feature_info
cxl EDAC calls cxl_feature_info() to get the feature information and if the hardware has no Features support, cxlfs may be passed in as NULL.
Add a check for cxlfs before dereferencing it and return -EOPNOTSUPP if there is no cxlfs created due to no hardware support.
