How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.6 reiserfs-kmp-coco to version 6.4.0-15061.6.coco15sp6.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream reiserfs-kmp-coco package and not the reiserfs-kmp-coco package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.6 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

drm/msm/dpu: move dpu_encoder's connector assignment to atomic_enable()

For cases where the crtc's connectors_changed was set without enable/active getting toggled , there is an atomic_enable() call followed by an atomic_disable() but without an atomic_mode_set().

This results in a NULL ptr access for the dpu_encoder_get_drm_fmt() call in the atomic_enable() as the dpu_encoder's connector was cleared in the atomic_disable() but not re-assigned as there was no atomic_mode_set() call.

Fix the NULL ptr access by moving the assignment for atomic_enable() and also use drm_atomic_get_new_connector_for_encoder() to get the connector from the atomic_state.
