When assigning a stream\nencoder for a second DisplayPort MST stream, if the preferred digital\nencoder is already acquired, dce100_find_first_free_match_stream_enc_for_link()\nfalls back to the first free pool entry. That entry may be the analog\nencoder, whose funcs table lacks DP hooks such as dp_set_stream_attribute.\nThe subsequent atomic commit then dereferences NULL function pointers in\nlink_set_dpms_on() and crashes.\n\nSkip encoders without dp_set_stream_attribute when the stream uses a DP\nsignal (including MST). Use dc_is_dp_signal(stream->signal) for the MST\nfallback path instead of checking only the link connector signal.\n\nTested on:\n- GPU: AMD Radeon R7 260X (Bonaire / DCE8)\n- Board: Supermicro C9X299-PG300\n- Setup: DP MST daisy chain, hotplug second monitor or have it connected on boot\n- Kernel: 7.1.3 (issue observed since 6.19)\n- Result: kernel oops without patch; dual monitors stable with patch\n\n(cherry picked from commit 28ec64943e3ee4d9b8d30cea61e380f1429953a8)","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":null,"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d340cba0df4cf327c7e89c7c1a4e79d4771d7dd5","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ed2d86aef9fa4c43f82da0fca91a60f7326d7d03"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:47:54.990491175+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-68235","score":0.00198,"percentile":0.09569,"date":"2026-11-01"},"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).
