Search: CVE-2024-49905

A null pointer dereference vulnerability was identified and fixed in the Linux kernel's AMD GPU display driver. The flaw involved missing null checks for the 'afb' variable in the amdgpu_dm_plane_handle_cursor_update function, which could lead to a null pointer dereference and cause a denial of service. The issue was addressed by adding a proper null check at the point where 'afb' is used.
