CVE-2026-43431
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xhci: Fix NULL pointer dereference when reading portli debugfs files Michal reported and debgged a NULL pointer dereference bug in the recently added portli debugfs files Oops is caused when there are more port registers counted in xhci->max_ports than ports reported by Supported Protocol capabilities. This is possible if max_ports is more than maximum port number, or if there are gaps between ports of different speeds the 'Supported Protocol' capabilities. In such cases port->rhub will be NULL so we can't reach xhci behind it. Add an explicit NULL check for this case, and print portli in hex without dereferencing port->rhub.
