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.
