CVE-2024-26729

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Fix potential null pointer dereference in dc_dmub_srv Fixes potential null pointer dereference warnings in the dc_dmub_srv_cmd_list_queue_execute() and dc_dmub_srv_is_hw_pwr_up() functions. In both functions, the 'dc_dmub_srv' variable was being dereferenced before it was checked for null. This could lead to a null pointer dereference if 'dc_dmub_srv' is null. The fix is to check if 'dc_dmub_srv' is null before dereferencing it. Thus moving the null checks for 'dc_dmub_srv' to the beginning of the functions to ensure that 'dc_dmub_srv' is not null when it is dereferenced. Found by smatch & thus fixing the below: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/dc_dmub_srv.c:133 dc_dmub_srv_cmd_list_queue_execute() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'dc_dmub_srv' (see line 128) drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/dc_dmub_srv.c:1167 dc_dmub_srv_is_hw_pwr_up() warn: variable dereferenced before check 'dc_dmub_srv' (see line 1164)

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: drm/amd/display: corrige una posible desreferencia de puntero nulo en dc_dmub_srv. Corrige posibles advertencias de desreferencia de puntero nulo en las funciones dc_dmub_srv_cmd_list_queue_execute() y dc_dmub_srv_is_hw_pwr_up(). En ambas funciones, se estaba desreferenciando la variable 'dc_dmub_srv' antes de verificar si era nula. Esto podría provocar una desreferencia del puntero nulo si 'dc_dmub_srv' es nulo. La solución es comprobar si 'dc_dmub_srv' es nulo antes de eliminar la referencia a él. Por lo tanto, se mueven las comprobaciones nulas de 'dc_dmub_srv' al comienzo de las funciones para garantizar que 'dc_dmub_srv' no sea nulo cuando se desreferencia. Encontrado por smatch y arreglando así lo siguiente: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/dc_dmub_srv.c:133 dc_dmub_srv_cmd_list_queue_execute() advertencia: variable desreferenciada antes de verificar 'dc_dmub_srv' (ver línea 128) drivers/ gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/dc_dmub_srv.c:1167 dc_dmub_srv_is_hw_pwr_up() advertencia: variable desreferenciada antes de verificar 'dc_dmub_srv' (ver línea 1164)
