Linux · Linux Kernel · CVE-2024-42228
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description:
The issue is related to the use of an uninitialized value `*size` when calling `amdgpu vce cs reloc` in the `drm/amdgpu` module. This could potentially impact the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of protected information. The problem can be addressed by initializing the `size` before calling `amdgpu vce cs reloc`, such as in the case `0x03000001`. To improve handling, a separate value of `0xffffffff` would be needed.
Recommendations:
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
