In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
video: fbdev: arkfb: Check the size of screen before memset_io()
In the function arkfbsetpar(), the value of 'screensize' is calculated by the user input. If the user provides the improper value, the value of 'screensize' may larger than 'info->screen_size', which may cause the following bug:
[ 659.399066] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffc90003000000 [ 659.399077] #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode [ 659.399079] #PF: errorcode(0x0002) - not-present page [ 659.399094] RIP: 0010:memsetorig+0x33/0xb0 [ 659.399116] Call Trace: [ 659.399122] arkfbsetpar+0x143f/0x24c0 [ 659.399130] fbsetvar+0x604/0xeb0 [ 659.399161] dofbioctl+0x234/0x670 [ 659.399189] fb_ioctl+0xdd/0x130
Fix the this by checking the value of 'screensize' before memsetio().
