| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) Graphics Execution Manager (GEM) component. This vulnerability arises from an inconsistent calculation of plane dimensions, which can lead to incorrect memory allocation checks. A local attacker could exploit this by creating a specially crafted Graphics Execution Manager (GEM) object that bypasses security validations. This could allow the GPU to access memory outside its designated area, potentially leading to memory corruption, information disclosure, or the execution of unauthorized code.
