Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm: mxsfb: Fix NULL pointer dereference crash on unload

The mxsfb->crtc.funcs may already be NULL when unloading the driver,
in which case calling mxsfb_irq_disable() via drm_irq_uninstall() from
mxsfb_unload() leads to NULL pointer dereference.

Since all we care about is masking the IRQ and mxsfb->base is still
valid, just use that to clear and mask the IRQ.

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: drm: mxsfb: corrige el fallo de desreferencia del puntero NULL al descargar Es posible que mxsfb->crtc.funcs ya sea NULL al descargar el controlador, en cuyo caso se llama a mxsfb_irq_disable() a través de drm_irq_uninstall() desde mxsfb_unload() conduce a la desreferencia del puntero NULL. Dado que lo único que nos importa es enmascarar la IRQ y mxsfb->base sigue siendo válido, simplemente utilícelo para borrar y enmascarar la IRQ.
