Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdgpu/ras: Move ras data alloc before bad page check

In the rare event if eeprom has only invalid address entries,
allocation is skipped, this causes following NULL pointer issue

This also result in space left assigned to negative values.
Moving data alloc call before bad page check resolves both the issue.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
