It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2022-49960 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49960/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49960/index.md)","id":"CVE-2022-49960","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2022-49960/index.md","name":"CVE-2022-49960","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2022-49960","GHSA-4m75-mg2m-9pf6","UBUNTU-CVE-2022-49960"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A null pointer dereference in the i915 graphics driver causes a kernel panic during boot on specific hardware, leading to denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-476","name":"NULL Pointer Dereference"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndrm/i915: fix null pointer dereference\n\nAsus chromebook CX550 crashes during boot on v5.17-rc1 kernel.\nThe root cause is null pointer defeference of bi_next\nin tgl_get_bw_info() in drivers/gpu/drm/i915/display/intel_bw.c.\n\nBUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000002e\nPGD 0 P4D 0\nOops: 0002 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI\nCPU: 0 PID: 1 Comm: swapper/0 Tainted: G     U            5.17.0-rc1\nHardware name: Google Delbin/Delbin, BIOS Google_Delbin.13672.156.3 05/14/2021\nRIP: 0010:tgl_get_bw_info+0x2de/0x510\n...\n[    2.554467] Call Trace:\n[    2.554467]  \u003cTASK\u003e\n[    2.554467]  intel_bw_init_hw+0x14a/0x434\n[    2.554467]  ?
