CVE-2025-22093
5.5 · MEDIUMOverview
CVE-2025-22093 is a medium-severity vulnerability affecting linux linux_kernel. It was published on April 16, 2025 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5 (MEDIUM).
This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5, rated MEDIUM. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.
Technical Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: avoid NPD when ASIC does not support DMUB
ctx->dmub_srv will de NULL if the ASIC does not support DMUB, which is
tested in dm_dmub_sw_init.
However, it will be dereferenced in dmub_hw_lock_mgr_cmd if
should_use_dmub_lock returns true.
This has been the case since dmub support has been added for PSR1.
Fix this by checking for dmub_srv in should_use_dmub_lock.
