From: "Jiri Slaby (SUSE)" <jirislaby@kernel.org> mainline inclusion from mainline-v6.12-rc1 commit 602babaa84d627923713acaf5f7e9a4369e77473 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://gitee.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/IAYREU CVE: CVE-2024-50058 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?i... -------------------------------- Commit af224ca2df29 (serial: core: Prevent unsafe uart port access, part 3) added few uport == NULL checks. It added one to uart_shutdown(), so the commit assumes, uport can be NULL in there. But right after that protection, there is an unprotected "uart_port_dtr_rts(uport, false);" call. That is invoked only if HUPCL is set, so I assume that is the reason why we do not see lots of these reports. Or it cannot be NULL at this point at all for some reason :P. Until the above is investigated, stay on the safe side and move this dereference to the if too. I got this inconsistency from Coverity under CID 1585130. Thanks.
