Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Rockchip Analogix DP driver. The driver formats a device tree path into a fixed-size stack buffer without verifying the input length. A local user capable of providing an excessively long device tree path can trigger a stack-based buffer overflow, leading to memory corruption or a Denial of Service (DoS) caused by a system crash.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-09-25 11:16:10 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/rockchip: analogix_dp: fix unchecked bound endpoint name length

rockchip_dp_drm_encoder_enable() uses sprintf() to format a device tree
path into a 32-byte stack buffer. Device tree paths are not limited to
this size, so a sufficiently long path can overflow the buffer.

Use snprintf() with the destination size to truncate the generated name
and keep the writes within bounds.
