Overview
About vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/ttm: Avoid NULL pointer deref for evicted BOs
It is possible for a BO to exist that is not currently associated with a resource, e.g. because it has been evicted.
When devcoredump tries to read the contents of all BOs for dumping, we need to expect this as well – in this case, ENODATA is recorded instead of the buffer contents.
