Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hv_sock: Initializing vsk->trans to NULL to prevent a dangling pointer
When hvs is released, there is a possibility that vsk->trans may not be initialized to NULL, which could lead to a dangling pointer. This issue is resolved by initializing vsk->trans to NULL.
