CVE-2023-53324 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/msm/mdp5: Don't leak some plane state Apparently no one noticed that mdp5 plane states leak like a sieve ever since we introduced plane_state->commit refcount a few years ago in 21a01abbe32a ("drm/atomic: Fix freeing connector/plane state too early by tracking commits, v3.") Fix it by using the right helpers. Patchwork: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/551236/
A vulnerability exists in the Linux kernel's DRM MSM MDP5 component, where plane states have been leaking since the introduction of a reference count for plane commits. This issue arises because the plane state management does not properly handle the reference counting, leading to potential misuse or corruption of plane state information. The vulnerability affects several versions of the Linux kernel.
Users can upgrade to a patched version of the Linux kernel where this vulnerability has been addressed. The specific commit that resolves this issue is available in the Linux kernel stable tree.
