Subject: [PATCH] drm/amd/display: dcn21: fix NULL deref in abm immediate disable
Date: Fri,  9 Jan 2026 04:23:29 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260108202330.1849-1-qikeyu2017@gmail.com> (raw)

dcn21_set_abm_immediate_disable() dereferenced pipe_ctx->stream_res.tg
unconditionally to read tg->inst. pipe_ctx->stream_res.tg may be NULL
on some paths, and the function can still be reached when abm_level is
non-zero, leading to a NULL pointer dereference (oops/DoS).

Fix this by requiring abm, tg and panel_cntl to be present before
accessing tg->inst and issuing ABM/panel operations.

This is similar to CVE-2024-26661.

Fixes: 474ac4a875ca ("drm/amd/display: Implement some asic specific abm call backs.")
