Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/rockchip: dw_dp: Fix null-ptr-deref in dw_dp_remove() Attempting to access driver data in the platform driver ->remove() callback may lead to a null pointer dereference since there is no guaranty that the component ->bind() callback invoking platform_set_drvdata() was executed. A common scenario is when Rockchip DRM driver didn't manage to run component_bind_all() because of an (unrelated) error causing early return from rockchip_drm_bind(). Drop the unnecessary call to platform_get_drvdata() and, instead, reference the target device structure via platform_device.

Affected products

• Linux kernel: 6.18 — fixed in 7.2

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: Linux kernel 7.2. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
