In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amd/display: Check NULL before accessing

[WHAT]
IGT kms_cursor_legacy's long-nonblocking-modeset-vs-cursor-atomic
fails with NULL pointer dereference. This can be reproduced with
both an eDP panel and a DP monitors connected.
