| Subject: CVE-2024-50214: drm/connector: hdmi: Fix memory leak in drm_display_mode_from_cea_vic() |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| drm/connector: hdmi: Fix memory leak in drm_display_mode_from_cea_vic() |
| |
| modprobe drm_connector_test and then rmmod drm_connector_test, |
| the following memory leak occurs. |
| |
| The `mode` allocated in drm_mode_duplicate() called by |
| drm_display_mode_from_cea_vic() is not freed, which cause the memory leak: |
| |
| unreferenced object 0xffffff80cb0ee400 (size 128): |

| 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: |
