Linux · Linux Kernel · CVE-2022-48710
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
**Description**
A null pointer dereference issue has been resolved in the Linux kernel. The issue occurs in the `radeon fp native mode()` function, where the return value of `drm mode duplicate()` is assigned to `mode`. If `drm mode duplicate()` fails, it leads to a null pointer dereference. A check has been added to avoid this issue. Additionally, the failure status of `drm cvt mode()` on another path is also checked.
**Recommendations**
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
