Summary

In the Linux kernel, DRM EDID's drm_parse_tiled_block() reads the full displayid_tiled_block structure without checking block length, leading to heap out-of-bounds read. A crafted EDID with a small tiled-display block can cause data leak.

Risk Assessment

The organization may be vulnerable to attacks via a connected monitor or malicious EDID file, leading to heap out-of-bounds read and potential leak of sensitive kernel memory.

Recommendation

Apply the Linux kernel patch that rejects blocks shorter than 22 bytes before reading the structure, as drm_parse_vesa_mso_data() already does.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/edid: fix OOB read in drm_parse_tiled_block() drm_parse_tiled_block() casts the DisplayID block to a struct displayid_tiled_block and reads the full fixed layout up to tile->topology_id[7] without checking block->num_bytes. The DisplayID iterator only validates the declared payload length, so a crafted EDID can advertise a tiled-display block (tag DATA_BLOCK_TILED_DISPLAY, or DATA_BLOCK_2_TILED_DISPLAY_TOPOLOGY for v2.0) with a small num_bytes at the end of a DisplayID extension. The read then runs past the end of the exact-sized kmemdup()'d EDID allocation, a heap out-of-bounds read. Reject blocks shorter than the spec's 22-byte tiled payload before reading the fixed struct, as drm_parse_vesa_mso_data() already does.
