"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nfbdev: fbcon: fix out-of-bounds read in err_out of fbcon_do_set_font()\n\nWhen fbcon_do_set_font() fails (e.g., due to a memory allocation failure\ninside vc_resize() under heavy memory pressure), it jumps to the `err_out`\nlabel to roll back the console state. However, the current rollback logic\nforgets to restore the `hi_font` state, leading to a severe state machine\ncorruption.\n\nEarlier in the function, `set_vc_hi_font()` might be called to change\n`vc->vc_hi_font_mask` and mutate the screen buffer. If `vc_resize()`\nsubsequently fails, the `err_out` path restores `vc_font.charcount`\nbut entirely skips rolling back the `vc_hi_font_mask` and the screen\nbuffer.\n\nThis mismatch leaves the terminal in a desynchronized state. Because\n`vc_hi_font_mask` remains set, the VT subsystem will still accept\ncharacter indices greater than 255 from userspace and write them to the\nscreen buffer. Subsequent rendering calls (e.g., `fbcon_putcs()`) will\nthen use these inflated indices to access the reverted, 256-character\nfont array, leading to a deterministic out-of-bounds read and potential\nkernel memory disclosure.\n\nFix this by adding the missing rollback logic for the `hi_font` mask\nand screen buffer in the error path."

"value": "AV:L - The vulnerability is reached only through the KDFONTOP ioctl on a framebuffer-console virtual terminal (/dev/ttyN), which is a local syscall path with no network or physical-access vector.\nAC:L - An attacker who controls a session on an fbcon-backed VT can reliably trigger the bug by issuing a font-change ioctl with different dimensions and a 256↔512 glyph transition, then inducing vc_resize() failure through self-controlled memory pressure; no race or victim-dependent timing is required.\nPR:L - KDFONTOP font-set operations require only that the caller owns the controlling TTY (current->signal->tty == tty), which any unprivileged local user with a console or VT session has; CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG is not required on that path.\nUI:N - Exploitation requires only the attacker's own ioctl and memory-pressure actions on their TTY; no action by another user or administrator is needed.\nS:U - Impact is confined to kernel memory disclosure and potential kernel crash within the same kernel security authority; there is no VM escape, sandbox escape, or cross-security-boundary effect.\nC:H - The desynchronized hi_font_mask causes deterministic out-of-bounds reads from the kernel font glyph buffer during fbcon rendering (e.g., bit_cursor and rotated putcs paths), enabling disclosure of adjacent kernel memory.\nI:N - The flaw is an out-of-bounds read with console state desynchronization; it does not provide an arbitrary kernel write, code execution, or other data-modification primitive.\nA:H - Out-of-bounds reads from kernel font data can cause kernel page faults and oopses, consistent with the prior syzkaller-reported fbcon font/resize failure class that produced unhandled page faults."
