This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled drm/vmwgfx: Fix possible null pointer derefence with invalid contexts to the 6.7-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: drm-vmwgfx-fix-possible-null-pointer-derefence-with-.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.7 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 053f9a74114e9dea5139b50a58ad15ae0e5573d4 Author: Zack Rusin <zack.rusin@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Jan 10 15:03:05 2024 -0500 drm/vmwgfx: Fix possible null pointer derefence with invalid contexts [ Upstream commit 517621b7060096e48e42f545fa6646fc00252eac ] vmw_context_cotable can return either an error or a null pointer and its usage sometimes went unchecked. Subsequent code would then try to access either a null pointer or an error value. The invalid dereferences were only possible with malformed userspace apps which never properly initialized the rendering contexts. Check the results of vmw_context_cotable to fix the invalid derefs. Thanks: ziming zhang(@ezrak1e) from Ant Group Light-Year Security Lab who was the first person to discover it. Niels De Graef who reported it and helped to track down the poc.
