CVE-2024-53201

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description A null pointer dereference issue in the dcn20 program pipe() function has been resolved. The issue occurred because the pipe ctx->plane state was accessed without proper null checks, leading to potential null pointer dereference issues. The problem was partially fixed by a previous commit, but the dcn20 update dchubp dpp() function still passed the pipe ctx variable and accessed plane state through it, causing the issue to persist. The patch adds necessary null checks to ensure stability.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
