Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
Input: MT - limit max slots
syzbot is reporting too large allocation at input_mt_init_slots(), for
num_slots is supplied from userspace using ioctl(UI_DEV_CREATE).
Since nobody knows possible max slots, this patch chose 1024.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's multi-touch input handling where the number of MT slots supplied through the UI_DEV_CREATE ioctl was not adequately bounded. A local user could provide an excessively large value, causing input_mt_init_slots() to perform an excessive kernel memory allocation. This could exhaust kernel memory and result in a denial of service. The issue was fixed by limiting the maximum number of MT slots to 1024.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base, or stability.
