## Overview

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

ASoC: Intel: avs: Fix null-ptr-deref in avs_component_probe()

devm_kasprintf() returns NULL when memory allocation fails. Currently,
avs_component_probe() does not check for this case, which results in a
NULL pointer dereference.

## Affected

- `Linux >= 739c031110da9ba966b0189fa25a2a1c0d42263c < aaa93b8846101461de815759d39979661b82d5a5`
- `Linux >= 739c031110da9ba966b0189fa25a2a1c0d42263c < 23fde311ea1d0a6c36bf92ce48b90b77d0ece1a4`
- `Linux >= 739c031110da9ba966b0189fa25a2a1c0d42263c < c2825073271b6f15e669a424b363612082494863`
- `Linux >= 739c031110da9ba966b0189fa25a2a1c0d42263c < 95f723cf141b95e3b3a5b92cf2ea98a863fe7275`
- `Linux 6.6`
