Subject: CVE-2025-39676: scsi: qla4xxx: Prevent a potential error pointer dereference

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...nel.org>

Description
===========

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

scsi: qla4xxx: Prevent a potential error pointer dereference

The qla4xxx_get_ep_fwdb() function is supposed to return NULL on error,
but qla4xxx_ep_connect() returns error pointers.  Propagating the error
pointers will lead to an Oops in the caller, so change the error pointers
to NULL.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2025-39676 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========

The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes.  Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release.  Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all.  If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
