DescriptionNVD

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amd/display: Fix drm_edid leak in amdgpu_dm

[WHAT] When a sink is connected, aconnector->drm_edid was overwritten without freeing the previous allocation, causing a memory leak on resume.

[HOW] Free the previous drm_edid before updating it.

(cherry picked from commit 52024a94e7111366141cfc5d888b2ef011f879e5)

AnalysisAI

Memory leak in AMD display driver (amdgpu_dm) on Linux kernel allows local authenticated attackers to cause denial of service by exhausting kernel memory when display sinks are connected and the system resumes from sleep. The vulnerability arises from failure to free previously allocated drm_edid structures before overwriting them, and is confirmed in kernel versions up to 7.0 RC5 with EPSS exploitation probability of 0.02% indicating low real-world exploitation likelihood.
