CVE-2025-68286

CVSS v2.0

4.3

Medium

VectorAV:A/AC:H/Au:S/C:N/I:N/A:C
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions prior to 6.16.0-99-custom #8
Description The Linux kernel contains a flaw within the amdgpu driver related to display handling. Specifically, a NULL pointer dereference can occur when accessing display stream information, potentially leading to system instability. This issue was identified during testing with IGT kms cursor legacy and can be reproduced with both eDP and DP monitors. The root cause is a missing NULL check before accessing a pointer, resulting in a kernel panic when the pointer is invalid.
Recommendations Update to Linux kernel version 6.16.0-99-custom #8 or a later version to address this issue.
