VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions prior to 6.2.0-rc1-dirty #11
Description The vulnerability is related to a NULL pointer dereference in the Linux kernel's drm/msm component, specifically when the Adreno GPU is working in headless mode. This can cause an internal error, leading to a denial of service. The issue is reproducible when rebooting the board with the Adreno GPU in headless mode.
Recommendations To resolve the issue, update the Linux kernel to a version that includes the fix for the drm/msm component, specifically the patch that addresses the NULL pointer dereference issue. If updating is not possible, consider disabling the headless mode for the Adreno GPU as a temporary workaround.
