However, the existing condition:\n\n  ((!fams2_enable && update_bw_bounding_box) || freq_changed)\n\ndoes not guarantee this, as the freq_changed branch can evaluate to true\nindependently of the callback pointer.\n\nThis can result in calling update_bw_bounding_box() when it is NULL.\n\nFix this by separating the update condition from the pointer checks and\nensuring the callback, dc->clk_mgr, and bw_params are validated before\nuse.\n\nFixes the below:\n../dc/hwss/dcn401/dcn401_hwseq.c:367 dcn401_init_hw() error: we previously assumed 'dc->res_pool->funcs->update_bw_bounding_box' could be null (see line 362)\n\n(cherry picked from commit 86117c5ab42f21562fedb0a64bffea3ee5fcd477)","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":5.5},"cwes":["CWE-476"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/10c13c111d0d7f8e101c742feff264fc98e3f9f7","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2d4a6f0702c5211e0be8b688c5fc24f082ec74d6","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e927b36ae18b66b49219eaa9f46edc7b4fdbb25e","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/fcc51c81cb472eb460310c477460356dc4845ff7"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-22T16:41:11.231219466+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-43337","score":0.00114,"percentile":0.01471,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
