CVE-2024-57799: phy: rockchip: samsung-hdptx: Set drvdata before enabling runtime PM
First published: Sat Jan 11 2025(Updated: )
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: phy: rockchip: samsung-hdptx: Set drvdata before enabling runtime PM In some cases, rk_hdptx_phy_runtime_resume() may be invoked before platform_set_drvdata() is executed in ->probe(), leading to a NULL pointer dereference when using the return of dev_get_drvdata(). Ensure platform_set_drvdata() is called before devm_pm_runtime_enable().
