NULL Pointer Dereference Affecting kernel-zfcpdump-devel-matched package, versions *

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-zfcpdump-devel-matched package and not the kernel-zfcpdump-devel-matched package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

drm/amd/display: Fix dc_link NULL handling in HPD init

amdgpu_dm_hpd_init() may see connectors without a valid dc_link.

The code already checks dc_link for the polling decision, but later unconditionally dereferences it when setting up HPD interrupts.

Assign dc_link early and skip connectors where it is NULL.

Fixes the below: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm_irq.c:940 amdgpu_dm_hpd_init() error: we previously assumed 'dc_link' could be null (see line 931)

drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm_irq.c 923 /* 924 * Analog connectors may be hot-plugged unlike other connector 925 * types that don't support HPD. Only poll analog connectors. 926 */ 927 use_polling |= 928 amdgpu_dm_connector->dc_link && ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The patch adds this NULL check but hopefully it can be removed

929                         dc_connector_supports_analog(amdgpu_dm_connector->dc_link->link_id.id);
930
931                 dc_link = amdgpu_dm_connector->dc_link;

dc_link assigned here.

--> 940 if (dc_link->irq_source_hpd != DC_IRQ_SOURCE_INVALID) { ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ If it's NULL then we are trouble because we dereference it here.

941                         irq_type = dc_link->irq_source_hpd - DC_IRQ_SOURCE_HPD1;
