NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-rt-selftests-internal package and not the kernel-rt-selftests-internal package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

drm/vmwgfx: Fix invalid reads in fence signaled events

Correctly set the length of the drm_event to the size of the structure that's actually used.

The length of the drm_event was set to the parent structure instead of to the drm_vmw_event_fence which is supposed to be read. drm_read uses the length parameter to copy the event to the user space thus resuling in oob reads.
