CVE-2023-52815 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
There is no fixed version for Centos:8 kernel-modules.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-modules package and not the kernel-modules package as distributed by Centos.
See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu/vkms: fix a possible null pointer dereference
In amdgpu_vkms_conn_get_modes(), the return value of drm_cvt_mode() is assigned to mode, which will lead to a NULL pointer dereference on failure of drm_cvt_mode(). Add a check to avoid null pointer dereference.
