In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbcon: Make sure modelist not set on unregistered console
It looks like attempting to write to the "store_modes" sysfs node will run afoul of unregistered consoles:
UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcon.c:122:28 index -1 is out of range for type 'fbinfo *[32]' ... fbconinfofromconsole+0x192/0x1a0 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcon.c:122 fbconnewmodelist+0xbf/0x2d0 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbcon.c:3048 fbnewmodelist+0x328/0x440 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c:673 storemodes+0x1c9/0x3e0 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbsysfs.c:113 devattr_store+0x55/0x80 drivers/base/core.c:2439
static struct fbinfo *fbconregisteredfb[FBMAX]; ... static signed char con2fbmap[MAXNRCONSOLES]; ... static struct fbinfo *fbconinfofromconsole(int console) ... return fbconregisteredfb[con2fbmap[console]];
If con2fbmap contains a -1 things go wrong here. Instead, return NULL, as callers of fbconinfofromconsole() are trying to compare against existing "info" pointers, so error handling should kick in correctly.
