In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
accel/amdxdna: Fix NULL pointer dereference of mgmt_chann
mgmt_chann may be set to NULL if the firmware returns an unexpected
error in aie2_send_mgmt_msg_wait(). This can later lead to a NULL
pointer dereference in aie2_hw_stop().
Fix this by introducing a dedicated helper to destroy mgmt_chann
and by adding proper NULL checks before accessing it.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's accel/amdxdna component. An unexpected firmware error during message handling can cause a critical communication variable (mgmt_chann) to be set to NULL. This can lead to a NULL pointer dereference when the system attempts to stop hardware operations, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS) that crashes the system.
