In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/msm: Do not validate SSPP when it is not ready
Current code will validate current plane and previous plane to
confirm they can share a SSPP with multi-rect mode. The SSPP
is already allocated for previous plane, while current plane
is not associated with any SSPP yet. Null pointer is referenced
when validating the SSPP of current plane. Skip SSPP validation
for current plane.
