How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.5 kernel-obs-build to version 5.14.21-150500.55.124.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-obs-build package and not the kernel-obs-build package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.5 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

drm/i915/bios: fix a memory leak in generate_lfp_data_ptrs

When (size != 0 || ptrs->lvds_ entries != 3), the program tries to free() the ptrs. However, the ptrs is not created by calling kzmalloc(), but is obtained by pointer offset operation. This may lead to memory leaks or undefined behavior.

Fix this by replacing the arguments of kfree() with ptrs_block.

(cherry picked from commit 7674cd0b7d28b952151c3df26bbfa7e07eb2b4ec)
