In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm: Prevent drm_copy_field() to attempt copying a NULL pointer
There are some struct drm_driver fields that are required by drivers since drm_copy_field() attempts to copy them to user-space via DRM_IOCTL_VERSION.
But it can be possible that a driver has a bug and did not set some of the fields, which leads to drm_copy_field() attempting to copy a NULL pointer:
