CVE-2026-23317
Severity CVSS v4.0:
Pending analysis

Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
drm/vmwgfx: Return the correct value in vmw_translate_ptr functions<br />
<br />
Before the referenced fixes these functions used a lookup function that<br />
returned a pointer. This was changed to another lookup function that<br />
returned an error code with the pointer becoming an out parameter.<br />
<br />
The error path when the lookup failed was not changed to reflect this<br />
change and the code continued to return the PTR_ERR of the now<br />
uninitialized pointer. This could cause the vmw_translate_ptr functions<br />
to return success when they actually failed causing further uninitialized<br />
and OOB accesses.
