Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/mediatek: Clean dangling pointer on bind error path mtk_drm_bind() can fail, in which case drm_dev_put() is called, destroying the drm_device object. However a pointer to it was still being held in the private object, and that pointer would be passed along to DRM in mtk_drm_sys_prepare() if a suspend were triggered at that point, resulting in a panic. Clean the pointer when destroying the object in the error path to prevent this from happening.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 4.7 < 4.19.276) • linux linux kernel (>= 4.20 < 5.4.235) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.5 < 5.10.173) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.11 < 5.15.99) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.1.16) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.2.3)
