FKIE_CVE-2025-38130

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2025-07-03 09:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 09:16
Severity
5.5 (Medium) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/connector: only call HDMI audio helper plugged cb if non-null On driver remove, sound/soc/codecs/hdmi-codec.c calls the plugged_cb with NULL as the callback function and codec_dev, as seen in its hdmi_remove function. The HDMI audio helper then happily tries calling said null function pointer, and produces an Oops as a result. Fix this by only executing the callback if fn is non-null. This means the .plugged_cb and .plugged_cb_dev members still get appropriately cleared.
