Summary

In the Linux kernel, the drm/vmwgfx driver has a vulnerability due to lack of validation of the array_size field in the vmw_surface_metadata structure. This field comes from userspace and should be validated against specific limits depending on the available Shader Model.

Risk Assessment

Lack of validation may lead to incorrect memory allocation or other errors, potentially resulting in system crashes or privilege escalation.

Recommendation

It is recommended to update the Linux kernel to a version containing the fix that adds validation of the array_size field.
