CVE-2024-50016

CVSS v3.1

5.5

Medium

VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel versions prior to 6.6.58
Description: The issue is related to an integer overflow in the Linux kernel's DRM/AMD display module. Specifically, the sampling rate variable, which is an uint8 t, is assigned an unsigned int, leading to a potential overflow. Additionally, the LINK QUAL PATTERN SET has a size of 2 bits and should only be assigned a value less than or equal to 4. This resolves 2 INTEGER OVERFLOW issues reported by Coverity.
Recommendations: For Linux kernel versions prior to 6.6.58, update to version 6.6.58 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the assignment of values to sampling rate and LINK QUAL PATTERN SET to prevent overflow.
