Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
usb: typec: ucsi: Fix null pointer dereference in trace
ucsi_register_altmode checks IS_ERR for the alt pointer and treats
NULL as valid. When CONFIG_TYPEC_DP_ALTMODE is not enabled,
ucsi_register_displayport returns NULL which causes a NULL pointer
dereference in trace. Rather than return NULL, call
typec_port_register_altmode to register DisplayPort alternate mode
as a non-controllable mode when CONFIG_TYPEC_DP_ALTMODE is not enabled.
Affected configurations
• linux linux kernel (< 5.4.284)
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.5 < 5.10.226)
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.11 < 5.15.167)
• linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.1.109)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.6.50)
• linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.10.9)
