How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:12 linux-6.12 to version 6.12.111-1~deb12u1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream linux-6.12 package and not the linux-6.12 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:12 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

fbdev: omapfb: panel-dsi-cm: initialize lock before registering display

dsicm_probe() registers the display before initializing ddata->lock. Once omapdss_register_display() publishes the display, another consumer can reach a dsicm callback that takes this mutex while it is still uninitialized.

Initialize the mutex before registering the display so the published callbacks always see a valid lock.
