| Subject: CVE-2024-56697: drm/amdgpu: Fix the memory allocation issue in amdgpu_discovery_get_nps_info() |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| drm/amdgpu: Fix the memory allocation issue in amdgpu_discovery_get_nps_info() |
| |
| Fix two issues with memory allocation in amdgpu_discovery_get_nps_info() |
| for mem_ranges: |
| |
| - Add a check for allocation failure to avoid dereferencing a null |
| pointer. |
| |
| - As suggested by Christophe, use kvcalloc() for memory allocation, |
| which checks for multiplication overflow. |
| |
| Additionally, assign the output parameters nps_type and range_cnt after |
| the kvcalloc() call to prevent modifying the output parameters in case |
| of an error return. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-56697 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
| https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d14bea4e094871226ea69772d69dab8b7b5f4915 |
