AI-suggested
A fix is available that moves the ras data allocation before the bad page check to prevent the NULL pointer dereference. Users should apply the updated Linux kernel versions that include this patch. No additional mitigation is indicated.
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's amdgpu driver related to ras data allocation has been resolved. The issue occurs when the EEPROM contains only invalid address entries, causing allocation to be skipped and leading to a NULL pointer dereference in kernel mode. This results in a kernel crash (Oops) and can cause system instability. The fix involves moving the ras data allocation before the bad page check to prevent the NULL pointer dereference and incorrect space assignment.
