CVE-2024-36914
CVSS v3.1
7.8
High
| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 6.6.37
Description
A dynamic memory safety error detector (KASAN) catches and generates error messages "BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds" as the writeback connector does not support certain features which are not initialized. The issue occurs in the drm/amd/display component when it attempts to write back data. To resolve this, the connector type is checked, and if it is DRM MODE CONNECTOR WRITEBACK, the operation is skipped.
Recommendations
Update to Linux kernel version 6.6.37 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider disabling the writeback feature for the drm/amd/display component until a patch is available.
