The failed atomic state will then be cleared by the\natomic core and intel_crtc_free_hw_state() can be called again for the\nsame state, dropping the same blob references again.\n\nClear the blob pointers after dropping the references so repeated cleanup\nof the same CRTC hw state is safe.\n\n(cherry picked from commit d5005addb5f68e8a0edce249506757bdc9e3d8c8)","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8},"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/164afa1a3af8e8c91b4a6d5fd7b79a44ec70abf0","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2024940522ef451098c940ab0b82d647de5e5d9b","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/31f077088e0faae6be8377741f356dea1b94ba46","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ac554ad943610031a25795d6ef71316f6164c136"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:48:17.459049833+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-72452","score":0.00175,"percentile":0.0695,"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).
