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

net: marvell: prestera: fix incorrect structure access

In line:
upper = info->upper_dev;
We access upper_dev field, which is related only for particular events
(e.g. event == NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER). So, this line cause invalid memory
access for another events,
when ptr is not netdev_notifier_changeupper_info.

The KASAN logs are as follows:
