Subject: [PATCH v2] net: ieee802154: fix a null pointer in nl802154_trigger_scan
Date: Tue,  7 Mar 2023 17:05:46 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230307090546.994258-1-dzm91@hust.edu.cn> (raw)

There is a null pointer dereference if NL802154_ATTR_SCAN_TYPE is
not set by the user.

Fix this by adding a null pointer check.

Fixes: a0b6106672b5 ("ieee802154: Convert scan error messages to extack")
