Subject: [PATCH] drm/radeon/radeon_connectors: Fix a NULL pointer dereference in radeon_fp_native_mode()
Date:   Tue, 30 Nov 2021 22:48:27 +0800
Message-Id: <20211130144827.163717-1-zhou1615@umn.edu>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Precedence: bulk

In radeon_fp_native_mode(), the return value of drm_mode_duplicate() is
assigned to mode and there is a dereference of it in
radeon_fp_native_mode(), which could lead to a NULL pointer
dereference on failure of drm_mode_duplicate().

Fix this bug by adding a check of mode.

This bug was found by a static analyzer. The analysis employs
differential checking to identify inconsistent security operations
(e.g., checks or kfrees) between two code paths and confirms that the
inconsistent operations are not recovered in the current function or
the callers, so they constitute bugs.

Note that, as a bug found by static analysis, it can be a false
positive or hard to trigger. Multiple researchers have cross-reviewed
the bug.

Builds with CONFIG_DRM_RADEON=m show no new warnings,
and our static analyzer no longer warns about this code.

Fixes: d2efdf6d6f42 ("drm/radeon/kms: add cvt mode if we only have lvds w/h and no edid (v4)")
