AI-suggested

A fix is available and has been applied in the Linux kernel by replacing krealloc() with krealloc_array() in the affected function. Users should update their Linux kernel to a version that includes this fix. Since this is not a cloud service, remediation depends on applying the updated kernel version. Patch status is not explicitly confirmed in the provided data; users should verify with the official Linux kernel advisories for the exact fixed versions.

Description

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's drm/amd/display component was resolved by replacing krealloc() with krealloc_array() in the dal_vector_reserve() function. The original code used uint32_t arithmetic to compute allocation size, which could overflow silently and cause krealloc to allocate a smaller buffer than expected. This led to heap overflows during subsequent vector appends. The fix introduces an internal overflow check that prevents this issue by returning NULL on overflow.
