Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions prior to 5.2.8

Description The issue is related to a driver error in the Linux kernel, specifically in the drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath10k/usb.c file, which is associated with null pointer dereference errors. An attacker, acting remotely, can exploit this issue to cause a denial of service by utilizing an incomplete address in an endpoint descriptor.
