Summary

In the Linux kernel, the drm/i915/vrr driver lacks validation of the minimum and maximum refresh rates (vfreq) provided by EDID. In the worst case, a zero min_vfreq could lead to a division by zero in intel_vrr_compute_vmax().

Risk Assessment

The risk includes system crash (panic) or incorrect VRR behavior, which could affect display stability. In environments with monitors having unusual EDID, system hang may occur.

Recommendation

It is recommended to apply a Linux kernel update containing the fix (commit 1765cf59f517b02f3b0591fe5120930d08bddeb6). Also, verify the correctness of EDID for used monitors.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/i915/vrr: require valid min/max vfreq for VRR Ensure the EDID provided min/max vfreq are valid. Most scenarios are already covered (by coincidence) through the checks in intel_vrr_is_capable() and intel_vrr_is_in_range(), but be more explicit about it. At worst, a zero min_vfreq could lead to a division by zero in intel_vrr_compute_vmax(). Discovered using AI-assisted static analysis confirmed by Intel Product Security. (cherry picked from commit 1765cf59f517b02f3b0591fe5120930d08bddeb6)
