So if\ndc_dmub_srv is NULL, the logging itself can dereference a\nNULL pointer and cause a crash.\n\nFix this by splitting the checks.\n\nFirst check if dc_dmub_srv is NULL and return immediately.\nThen check dc_dmub_srv->dmub and log the error only when\ndc_dmub_srv is valid.\n\nFixes the below:\n../display/dc/dc_dmub_srv.c:962 dc_dmub_srv_log_diagnostic_data() error: we previously assumed 'dc_dmub_srv' could be null (see line 961)\n../display/dc/dc_dmub_srv.c:1167 dc_dmub_srv_enable_dpia_trace() error: we previously assumed 'dc_dmub_srv' could be null (see line 1166)","published":"2026-06-26T20:17:25.000Z","lastModified":"2026-10-21T13:19:15.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":5.5,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-476"],"affected":["linux/linux kernel"],"epss":{"score":0.00114,"percentile":0.01468,"date":"2026-10-27","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.11%).
