CVE: CVE-2023-52899
Published: 2024-08-21
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Add exception protection processing for vd in axi_chan_handle_err function

Since there is no protection for vd, a kernel panic will be
triggered here in exceptional cases.

You can refer to the processing of axi_chan_block_xfer_complete function

The triggered kernel panic is as follows:
