AI-suggested
A fix is available that validates the plane degamma LUT size before use, rejecting any LUT whose size does not match the expected MAX_COLOR_LUT_ENTRIES. Users should apply the official Linux kernel updates that include this patch. Since this is not a cloud service, remediation depends on applying the updated kernel versions. Patch status is confirmed by the resolution of the vulnerability in the Linux kernel source. No additional mitigations are indicated by the vendor advisory.
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's AMD display driver was resolved involving improper validation of the plane degamma LUT size for a private color property. The flaw allowed a malformed LUT size to cause a divide-by-zero or out-of-bounds read, potentially leading to system instability or crashes. This issue affects specific Linux kernel versions used in various Ubuntu releases. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 7.8, indicating a medium severity level.
