Last modified
CVE-2023-52861 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 6.2/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm: bridge: it66121: Fix invalid connector dereference Fix the NULL pointer dereference when no monitor is connected, and the sound card is opened from userspace. Instead return an empty buffer (of zeroes) as the EDID information to the sound framework if there is no connector attached.. EPSS estimates a 0.25% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
