Type:
CWE-476
NULL Pointer Dereference
Publication date:

Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
drm/amd/display: Fix a NULL pointer dereference in amdgpu_dm_connector_add_common_modes()<br />
<br />
In amdgpu_dm_connector_add_common_modes(), amdgpu_dm_create_common_mode()<br />
is assigned to mode and is passed to drm_mode_probed_add() directly after<br />
that. drm_mode_probed_add() passes &mode->head to list_add_tail(), and<br />
there is a dereference of it in list_add_tail() without recoveries, which<br />
could lead to NULL pointer dereference on failure of<br />
amdgpu_dm_create_common_mode().<br />
<br />
Fix this by adding a NULL check of mode.<br />
<br />
This bug was found by a static analyzer.<br />
<br />
Builds with &#39;make allyesconfig&#39; show no new warnings,<br />
and our static analyzer no longer warns about this code.
