In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/hdcp: Add NULL check for mediagt in intelhdcpgsccheck_status()
When media GT is disabled via configfs, there is no allocation for mediagt, which is kept as NULL. In such scenario, intelhdcpgsccheck_status() results in a kernel pagefault error due to >->uc.gsc being evaluated as an invalid memory address.
Fix that by introducing a NULL check on media_gt and bailing out early if so.
While at it, also drop the NULL check for gsc, since it can't be NULL if media_gt is not NULL.
v2: - Get address for gsc only after checking that gt is not NULL. (Shuicheng) - Drop the NULL check for gsc. (Shuicheng) v3: - Add "Fixes" and "Cc: <stable...>" tags. (Matt)
