Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Blender (the affected version unknown) and classified as problematic. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-476. A NULL pointer dereference occurs when the application dereferences a pointer that it expects to be valid, but is NULL, typically causing a crash or exit. Impacted is confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

When rendering with headless builds, show an error instead of crashing. Previously GPU_backend_init was called indirectly from DRW_opengl_context_create, a new function is now called from the window manager (GPU_backend_init_once), so it's possible to check if the GPU has a back-end. This also disables the bgl Python module when building WITH_HEADLESS.

The weakness was published 08/17/2022. The advisory is available at developer.blender.org. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2022-2832 since 08/16/2022. Successful exploitation requires user interaction by the victim. Technical details are known, but there is no available exploit.

Applying a patch is able to eliminate this problem. The bugfix is ready for download at developer.blender.org.
