"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndrm/panthor: reject firmware sections with oversized data\n\nIn panthor_fw_load_section_entry(), the data size to copy is calculated\nwithout validating it against the allocated section_size:\n\n section->data.size = hdr.data.end - hdr.data.start;\n\nIf a crafted firmware sets data.size larger than the allocated memory,\nthis could cause a heap buffer overflow in panthor_fw_init_section_mem()\n\n memcpy(section->mem->kmap, section->data.buf, section->data.size);\n\nAdditionally, if the section->data.size exceeds the BO size, could this\nmemset underflow the size calculation, leading to a massive out-of-bounds\nzeroing of kernel memory?\n\n memset(section->mem->kmap + section->data.size, 0,\n panthor_kernel_bo_size(section->mem) - section->data.size);\n\nReject section entries whose initial data is larger than the section size."

"value": "AV:L - The overflow is reached only when panthor_fw_load() parses mali_csffw.bin from the local firmware search path during platform probe (panthor_probe→panthor_fw_init→panthor_fw_load_section_entry→panthor_fw_init_section_mem); no network, DRM ioctl, or /dev/dri/renderD* path feeds attacker-controlled firmware headers.\nAC:L - An attacker fully controls firmware section header fields (data.start/end versus va.start/end); once a malicious blob is in the firmware path, parsing deterministically performs an oversized memcpy and, with ZERO set, an underflowed memset on every load and on GPU-reset reloads without races or uncontrollable layout.\nPR:L - The parser performs no capability or authentication checks on firmware content; on Mali CSF Android, Chromebook, and embedded deployments the GPU firmware image commonly lives on vendor/firmware partitions writable by local non-root system or vendor service accounts, sufficient to plant the crafted blob before driver probe.\nUI:N - After the malicious firmware file is in place, parsing runs automatically at driver probe or GPU-reset section reload with no separate victim action; an attacker does not need another user to open a device node or mount a filesystem to trigger the bug.\nS:U - Impact is kernel heap corruption and potential local privilege escalation within the same kernel security domain; it does not cross a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary such as guest-to-host escape.\nC:H - The unchecked memcpy copies attacker-controlled firmware bytes past the allocated shmem BO mapping, and the memset length underflow can zero far beyond the buffer, giving out-of-bounds read/write primitives over adjacent kernel heap objects rather than a bounded leak.\nI:H - Heap buffer overflow plus attacker-controlled firmware content enables arbitrary kernel memory corruption; the ZERO-flag memset underflow can perform a massive out-of-bounds zero write exploitable for control-flow hijacking and local privilege escalation.\nA:H - Oversized memcpy and underflowed memset corrupt kernel heap memory and can immediately kernel oops or panic; the same corruption is re-triggered on GPU reset via panthor_reload_fw_sections(), enabling repeatable denial of service."
