5.5 mediumCVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:HCVE-2022-50181
Medium (5.5) in linux linux kernel. EPSS 0.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio-gpu: fix a missing check to avoid NULL dereference
'cache_ent' could be set NULL inside virtio_gpu_cmd_get_capset()
and it will lead to a NULL dereference by a lately use of it
(i.e., ptr = cache_ent->caps_cache). Fix it with a NULL check.
