DescriptionNVD

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

HID: wacom: fix when get product name maybe null pointer

Due to incorrect dev->product reporting by certain devices, null pointer dereferences occur when dev->product is empty, leading to potential system crashes.

This issue was found on EXCELSIOR DL37-D05 device with Loongson-LS3A6000-7A2000-DL37 motherboard.
