AI-suggested
A patch is available for this vulnerability and should be applied. The fix uses overflow-checked arithmetic to prevent integer overflows and rejects invalid pitch and size values. Users should update to patched Linux kernel versions as listed in the affectedVersions field. No additional mitigation steps are indicated by the vendor advisory.
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's drm/radeon driver was fixed to address integer overflow issues in the radeon_align_pitch() function. These overflows could cause invalid pitch values or zero-sized dumb buffers to be created. The fix uses overflow-checked arithmetic functions and rejects zero pitch and size values. This vulnerability affects specific Linux kernel versions and has a CVSS score of 7.8, indicating a medium severity. A patch is available to remediate this issue.
