In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
apparmor: fix invalid deref of rawdata when export_binary is unset
If the export_binary parameter is disabled on runtime, profiles that
were loaded before that will still have their rawdata stored in
apparmorfs, with a symbolic link to the rawdata on the policy
directory. When one of those profiles are replaced, the rawdata is set
to NULL, but when trying to resolve the symbolic links to rawdata for
that profile, it will try to dereference profile->rawdata->name when
profile->rawdata is now NULL causing an oops. Fix it by checking if
rawdata is set.
