Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel has been resolved. The issue is related to the
drm universal plane init() function, where a check for format count > 64 is performed. If this condition is met, it can lead to a leak of the plane->format types array and a failure to call drm mode object unregister(), resulting in a leak of the modeset identifier. The fix involves moving the range check to the start of the function to prevent resource allocation.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
