"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndrm/amd/display: Fix out-of-bound accesses\n\n[WHAT & HOW]\nhpo_stream_to_link_encoder_mapping has size MAX_HPO_DP2_ENCODERS(=4),\nbut location can have size up to 6. As a result, it is necessary to\ncheck location against MAX_HPO_DP2_ENCODERS.\n\nSimiliarly, disp_cfg_stream_location can be used as an array index which\nshould be 0..5, so the ASSERT's conditions should be less without equal."

"value": "AV:L - The vulnerable code is reached only through the local DRM atomic modeset ioctl (`DRM_IOCTL_MODE_ATOMIC`) on /dev/dri/card*, via amdgpu_dm_atomic_check() → dc_validate_global_state() → dml2_validate(); no network or remote peer data is involved.\nAC:L - Once a DisplayPort configuration with five or more streams/planes exists (multi-monitor or MST/dock setups, SubVP phantom streams, or primaries plus an MPO overlay), the out-of-bounds index is hit deterministically on every validation pass, and the attacker can re-issue TEST_ONLY atomic commits repeatedly with plane/stream assignments of their choosing.\nPR:L - The atomic ioctl is registered with DRM_MASTER only, which an ordinary unprivileged user holds for their active graphical session on the amdgpu card node — no root, no capability, and no init-namespace privilege is required.\nUI:N - The attacker performs the atomic commit themselves from their own session; no action by any other user is needed to trigger the out-of-bounds access.\nS:U - The corruption is confined to kernel heap memory belonging to the amdgpu display driver within the same kernel security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - The read at hpo_stream_to_link_encoder_mapping[4..5] pulls kernel data from beyond the array into adjacent struct state (g6_temp_read_watermark_set), and the resulting out-of-bounds heap write is a corruption primitive that can be leveraged to shape adjacent kernel objects for disclosure.\nI:H - The out-of-bounds value is used directly as an index into the 8-entry OutputEncoder[] array, producing a 4-byte write at a large, configuration-influenced offset that lands outside the kzalloc'd struct dml2_context, corrupting neighbouring heap objects as well as the DML output configuration that drives display hardware programming.\nA:H - The wild write corrupts kernel heap memory and the display-config state used for bandwidth/watermark programming, leading to oops, slab corruption, or hung/underflowing display output requiring recovery."
