HighMetricsAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 6.1.0-rc8+ #15
Description
The Linux kernel contains a flaw in the drm/i915/gvt subsystem related to the destruction of gvt debugfs. Specifically, a missing sanity check when destroying the gvt debugfs can lead to a null pointer dereference if the drm minor's debugfs root is no longer available, such as during device removal. This can result in a kernel oops.
Recommendations
Update to a version newer than 6.1.0-rc8+ #15.
