CVE-2026-46245CVE-2026-46245

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Fix dc_link NULL handling in HPD init amdgpu_dm_hpd_init() may see connectors without a valid dc_link. The code already checks dc_link for the polling decision, but later unconditionally dereferences it when setting up HPD interrupts. Assign dc_link early and skip connectors where it is NULL. Fixes the below: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm_irq.c:940 amdgpu_dm_hpd_init() error: we previously assumed 'dc_link' could be null (see line 931) drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm_irq.c 923 /* 924 * Analog connectors may be hot-plugged unlike other connector 925 * types that don't support HPD. Only poll analog connectors. 926 */ 927 use_polling |= 928 amdgpu_dm_connector->dc_link && ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
