In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd: Fix NULL pointer dereference in device cleanup
When GPU initialization fails due to an unsupported HW block
IP blocks may have a NULL version pointer. During cleanup in
amdgpu_device_fini_hw, the code calls amdgpu_device_set_pg_state and
amdgpu_device_set_cg_state which iterate over all IP blocks and access
adev->ip_blocks[i].version without NULL checks, leading to a kernel
NULL pointer dereference.
Add NULL checks for adev->ip_blocks[i].version in both
amdgpu_device_set_cg_state and amdgpu_device_set_pg_state to prevent
dereferencing NULL pointers during GPU teardown when initialization has
failed.
(cherry picked from commit b7ac77468cda92eecae560b05f62f997a12fe2f2)
