Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: dvb-frontends: dib7090p: fix
null-ptr-deref in dib7090p_rw_on_apb() In dib7090p_rw_on_apb, msg is controlled by user. When msg[0].buf
is null and msg[0].len is zero, former checks on msg[0].buf would be passed. If accessing msg[0].buf[2]
without sanity check, null pointer deref would happen. We add check on msg[0].len to prevent crash.
Similar issue occurs when access msg[1].buf[0] and msg[1].buf[1]. Similar commit: commit 0ed554fd769a
