Linux · Linux Kernel · CVE-2024-26911
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
**Description**
The issue is related to the `drm/buddy` component of the Linux kernel, specifically with the `alloc range()` function. This function was returning `SUCCESS` in certain corner cases when it couldn't find the required memory blocks, leading to display corruption when booting to KDE Plasma or playing games. The correct approach is for the function to return `-ENOSPC` when the total allocated size is less than the required size.
**Recommendations**
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
