In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbcon: check return value of con2fbacquirenewinfo()
If fbconopen() fails when called from con2fbacquirenewinfo() then info->fbconpar pointer remains NULL which is later dereferenced.
Add check for return value of the function con2fbacquirenewinfo() to avoid it.
Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.
