In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Do not skip unrelated mode changes in DSC validation
Starting with commit 17ce8a6907f7 ("drm/amd/display: Add dsc pre-validation in
atomic check"), amdgpu resets the CRTC state mode_changed flag to false when
recomputing the DSC configuration results in no timing change for a particular
stream.
However, this is incorrect in scenarios where a change in MST/DSC configuration
happens in the same KMS commit as another (unrelated) mode change. For example,
the integrated panel of a laptop may be configured differently (e.g., HDR
enabled/disabled) depending on whether external screens are attached. In this
case, plugging in external DP-MST screens may result in the mode_changed flag
being dropped incorrectly for the integrated panel if its DSC configuration
did not change during precomputation in pre_validate_dsc().
At this point, however, dm_update_crtc_state() has already created new streams
for CRTCs with DSC-independent mode changes. In turn,
amdgpu_dm_commit_streams() will never release the old stream, resulting in a
memory leak. amdgpu_dm_atomic_commit_tail() will never acquire a reference to
the new stream either, which manifests as a use-after-free when the stream gets
disabled later on:

Since there is no reliable way of figuring out whether a CRTC has unrelated
mode changes pending at the time of DSC validation, remember the value of the
mode_changed flag from before the point where a CRTC was marked as potentially
affected by a change in DSC configuration. Reset the mode_changed flag to this
earlier value instead in pre_validate_dsc().
(cherry picked from commit cc7c7121ae082b7b82891baa7280f1ff2608f22b)
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's AMD display component. This vulnerability arises from incorrect validation of display mode changes during Display Stream Compression (DSC) processing. A local attacker could exploit this by initiating specific display configuration changes, which may lead to a memory leak and a use-after-free error. This could result in system crashes, denial of service, or potentially allow the attacker to gain elevated privileges.
Отчет
This is an Important flaw in the Linux kernel's AMD display driver, where incorrect handling of display mode changes during Display Stream Compression (DSC) processing can lead to a memory leak and use-after-free. A local attacker with the ability to initiate specific display configuration changes could exploit this to cause a denial of service or potentially escalate privileges. The vulnerability requires local access to the system.
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.
