CVE-2024-49970

Full vulnerability record from the local CVENow database.

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: Implement bounds check for stream encoder creation in DCN401 'stream_enc_regs' array is an array of dcn10_stream_enc_registers structures. The array is initialized with four elements, corresponding to the four calls to stream_enc_regs() in the array initializer. This means that valid indices for this array are 0, 1, 2, and 3. The error message 'stream_enc_regs' 4 <= 5 below, is indicating that there is an attempt to access this array with an index of 5, which is out of bounds. This could lead to undefined behavior Here, eng_id is used as an index to access the stream_enc_regs array. If eng_id is 5, this would result in an out-of-bounds access on the stream_enc_regs array. Thus fixing Buffer overflow error in dcn401_stream_encoder_create Found by smatch: drivers/gpu/drm/amd/amdgpu/../display/dc/resource/dcn401/dcn401_resource.c:1209 dcn401_stream_encoder_create() error: buffer overflow 'stream_enc_regs' 4 <= 5

      "value": "En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: drm/amd/display: Implementar comprobación de los límites para la creación de codificadores de flujo en DCN401 La matriz 'stream_enc_regs' es una matriz de estructuras dcn10_stream_enc_registers. La matriz se inicializa con cuatro elementos, que corresponden a las cuatro llamadas a stream_enc_regs() en el inicializador de la matriz. Esto significa que los índices válidos para esta matriz son 0, 1, 2 y 3. El mensaje de error 'stream_enc_regs' 4 &lt;= 5 a continuación indica que hay un intento de acceder a esta matriz con un índice de 5, que está fuera de los límites. Esto podría provocar un comportamiento indefinido Aquí, eng_id se utiliza como índice para acceder a la matriz stream_enc_regs. Si eng_id es 5, esto daría como resultado un acceso fuera de los límites en la matriz stream_enc_regs. De esta forma se soluciona el error de desbordamiento de búfer en dcn401_stream_encoder_create.
