Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
drm/dp_mst: Fix MST sideband message body length check<br />
<br />
Fix the MST sideband message body length check, which must be at least 1<br />
byte accounting for the message body CRC (aka message data CRC) at the<br />
end of the message.<br />
<br />
This fixes a case where an MST branch device returns a header with a<br />
correct header CRC (indicating a correctly received body length), with<br />
the body length being incorrectly set to 0. This will later lead to a<br />
memory corruption in drm_dp_sideband_append_payload() and the following<br />
errors in dmesg:<br />
<br />
UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in drivers/gpu/drm/display/drm_dp_mst_topology.c:786:25<br />
index -1 is out of range for type &#39;u8 [48]&#39;<br />
