In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/mediatek: dsi: Store driver data before invoking mipi_dsi_host_register The call to mipi_dsi_host_register triggers a callback to mtk_dsi_bind, which uses dev_get_drvdata to retrieve the mtk_dsi struct, so this structure needs to be stored inside the driver data before invoking it. As drvdata is currently uninitialized it leads to a crash when registering the DSI DRM encoder right after acquiring the mode_config.idr_mutex, blocking all subsequent DRM operations. Fixes the following crash during mediatek-drm probe (tested on Xiaomi Smart Clock x04g): Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000040 [...] Modules linked in: mediatek_drm(+) drm_display_helper cec drm_client_lib drm_dma_helper drm_kms_helper panel_simple [...] Call trace: drm_mode_object_add+0x58/0x98 (P) __drm_encoder_init+0x48/0x140 drm_encoder_init+0x6c/0xa0 drm_simple_encoder_init+0x20/0x34 [drm_kms_helper] mtk_dsi_bind+0x34/0x13c [mediatek_drm] component_bind_all+0x120/0x280 mtk_drm_bind+0x284/0x67c [mediatek_drm] try_to_bring_up_aggregate_device+0x23c/0x320 __component_add+0xa4/0x198 component_add+0x14/0x20 mtk_dsi_host_attach+0x78/0x100 [mediatek_drm] mipi_dsi_attach+0x2c/0x50 panel_simple_dsi_probe+0x4c/0x9c [panel_simple] mipi_dsi_drv_probe+0x1c/0x28 really_probe+0xc0/0x3dc __driver_probe_device+0x80/0x160 driver_probe_device+0x40/0x120 __device_attach_driver+0xbc/0x17c bus_for_each_drv+0x88/0xf0 __device_attach+0x9c/0x1cc device_initial_probe+0x54/0x60 bus_probe_device+0x34/0xa0 device_add+0x5b0/0x800 mipi_dsi_device_register_full+0xdc/0x16c mipi_dsi_host_register+0xc4/0x17c mtk_dsi_probe+0x10c/0x260 [mediatek_drm] platform_probe+0x5c/0xa4 really_probe+0xc0/0x3dc __driver_probe_device+0x80/0x160 driver_probe_device+0x40/0x120 __driver_attach+0xc8/0x1f8 bus_for_each_dev+0x7c/0xe0 driver_attach+0x24/0x30 bus_add_driver+0x11c/0x240 driver_register+0x68/0x130 __platform_register_drivers+0x64/0x160 mtk_drm_init+0x24/0x1000 [mediatek_drm] do_one_initcall+0x60/0x1d0 do_init_module+0x54/0x240 load_module+0x1838/0x1dc0 init_module_from_file+0xd8/0xf0 __arm64_sys_finit_module+0x1b4/0x428 invoke_syscall.constprop.0+0x48/0xc8 do_el0_svc+0x3c/0xb8 el0_svc+0x34/0xe8 el0t_64_sync_handler+0xa0/0xe4 el0t_64_sync+0x198/0x19c Code: 52800022 941004ab 2a0003f3 37f80040 (29005a80)
