Descripción
*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
fbdev: fbcon: fix out-of-bounds read in err_out of fbcon_do_set_font()<br />
<br />
When fbcon_do_set_font() fails (e.g., due to a memory allocation failure<br />
inside vc_resize() under heavy memory pressure), it jumps to the `err_out`<br />
label to roll back the console state. However, the current rollback logic<br />
forgets to restore the `hi_font` state, leading to a severe state machine<br />
corruption.<br />
<br />
Earlier in the function, `set_vc_hi_font()` might be called to change<br />
`vc->vc_hi_font_mask` and mutate the screen buffer. If `vc_resize()`<br />
subsequently fails, the `err_out` path restores `vc_font.charcount`<br />
but entirely skips rolling back the `vc_hi_font_mask` and the screen<br />
buffer.<br />
<br />
This mismatch leaves the terminal in a desynchronized state. Because<br />
`vc_hi_font_mask` remains set, the VT subsystem will still accept<br />
character indices greater than 255 from userspace and write them to the<br />
screen buffer. Subsequent rendering calls (e.g., `fbcon_putcs()`) will<br />
then use these inflated indices to access the reverted, 256-character<br />
font array, leading to a deterministic out-of-bounds read and potential<br />
kernel memory disclosure.<br />
<br />
Fix this by adding the missing rollback logic for the `hi_font` mask<br />
and screen buffer in the error path.
