Summary

In the Linux kernel, a vulnerability was found in the MSM DRM driver's snapshot code. Internal 16-byte alignment caused incorrect dumping of DSI data (shifted by 4 bytes) and 16x memory overallocation. The fix removes length alignment and accurately prints last registers.

Risk Assessment

The vulnerability may result in incomplete or incorrect graphics system state snapshots, hindering failure diagnostics and potentially masking real hardware or software issues.

Recommendation

Immediately update the Linux kernel to a version containing the fix (commit from patchwork.freedesktop.org). Monitor distributions for backports of the patch.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/msm/snapshot: fix dumping of the unaligned regions The snapshotting code internally aligns data segment to 16 bytes. This works fine for DPU code (where most of the regions are aligned), but fails for snapshotting of the DSI data (because DSI data region is shifted by 4 bytes). Fix the code by removing length alignment and by accurately printing last registers in the region. While reworking the code also fix the 16x memory overallocation in msm_disp_state_dump_regs().
