Summary

In the Linux kernel, the drm/vc4 hvs and v3d drivers use dev_get_drvdata(master) in their unbind functions, leading to a null pointer dereference when vc4-drm is removed before dependent drivers. The fix uses the data pointer passed to the unbind functions instead of dev_get_drvdata(master).

Risk Assessment

The vulnerability can cause a system crash (kernel panic) during graphics device unbinding, leading to service unavailability.

Recommendation

Apply the Linux kernel update containing the fix for this CVE.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/vc4: hvs/v3d: Fix null dereference in unbind The hvs and v3d drivers use dev_get_drvdata(master) in their unbind functions. Since the vc4-drm gets removed before its dependent drivers (vc4_hvs/vc4_v3d) the vc4_hvs_unbind/vc4_v3d_unbind functions try to get drvdata of its master and fails with a null dereference error. Use the data pointer passed to the unbind functions directly instead of dev_get_drvdata(master). This avoids using potentially freed memory.
