Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
media: iris: gen1: Destroy internal buffers after FW releases
After the firmware releases internal buffers, the driver was not
destroying them. This left stale allocations that were no longer used,
especially across resolution changes where new buffers are allocated per
the updated requirements. As a result, memory was wasted until session
close.
Destroy internal buffers once the release response is received from the
firmware.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's media: iris: gen1 driver. This vulnerability occurs because the driver fails to destroy internal buffers after the firmware releases them. This oversight leads to stale memory allocations, particularly when display resolutions change and new buffers are required. Over time, this can result in significant memory waste, potentially leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) due to resource exhaustion.
