5.5 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: video: fbdev: smscufx: Fix null-ptr-deref in ufx_usb_probe() I got a null-ptr-deref report: BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000 ... RIP: 0010:fb_destroy_modelist+0x38/0x100 ... Call Trace: ufx_usb_probe.cold+0x2b5/0xac1 [smscufx] usb_probe_interface+0x1aa/0x3c0 [usbcore] really_probe+0x167/0x460 ... ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30 If fb_alloc_cmap() fails in ufx_usb_probe(), fb_destroy_modelist() will be called to destroy modelist in the error handling path. But modelist has not been initialized yet, so it will result in null-ptr-deref. Initialize modelist before calling fb_alloc_cmap() to fix this bug.
