CVE-2024-49909

Severity CVSS v4.0:
Pending analysis
Type:
CWE-476 NULL Pointer Dereference
Publication date:

Last modified:

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> drm/amd/display: Add NULL check for function pointer in dcn32_set_output_transfer_func<br /> <br /> This commit adds a null check for the set_output_gamma function pointer<br /> in the dcn32_set_output_transfer_func function. Previously,<br /> set_output_gamma was being checked for null, but then it was being<br /> dereferenced without any null check. This could lead to a null pointer<br /> dereference if set_output_gamma is null.<br /> <br /> To fix this, we now ensure that set_output_gamma is not null before<br /> dereferencing it. We do this by adding a null check for set_output_gamma<br /> before the call to set_output_gamma.
