In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdkfd: fix scope of mqd_mgr dereference in pqm_debugfs_mqds

Reading /sys/kernel/debug/kfd/mqds while a process holds an active KFD
queue triggers a NULL pointer dereference because the for loop that
calls mqd_mgr->debugfs_show_mqd() is incorrectly placed outside the
if (pqn->q) block that initializes mqd_mgr.

The queue list can contain entries where pqn->q is NULL (kernel queues
where only pqn->kq is valid). In the original code:

if (pqn->q) {
...
mqd_mgr = q->device->dqm->mqd_mgrs[mqd_type];
size = mqd_mgr->mqd_stride(...);
}

for (xcc = 0; xcc < num_xccs; xcc++) { // WRONG: outside if block
mqd = q->mqd + size * xcc;
r = mqd_mgr->debugfs_show_mqd(m, mqd);
}

When iterating over a queue node where pqn->q is NULL:

1. The if (pqn->q) block is skipped
2. mqd_mgr remains uninitialized (NULL from declaration)
3. The for loop executes anyway
4. mqd_mgr->debugfs_show_mqd(m, mqd) dereferences NULL

The crash manifests as:

BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
#PF: supervisor instruction fetch in kernel mode
RIP: 0010:0x0
Call Trace:
pqm_debugfs_mqds+0x10c/0x1d0 [amdgpu]
kfd_debugfs_mqds_by_process+0x9b/0x110 [amdgpu]
seq_read_iter+0x132/0x4b0
...

Fix by moving the for loop inside the if (pqn->q) block, so mqd_mgr
and related variables are only used when properly initialized.
