How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.6 kernel-devel-azure to version 6.4.0-150600.8.23.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-devel-azure package and not the kernel-devel-azure package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.6 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

drm/amd/display: Avoid overflow assignment in link_dp_cts

sampling_rate is an uint8_t but is assigned an unsigned int, and thus it can overflow. As a result, sampling_rate is changed to uint32_t.

Similarly, LINK_QUAL_PATTERN_SET has a size of 2 bits, and it should only be assigned to a value less or equal than 4.

This fixes 2 INTEGER_OVERFLOW issues reported by Coverity.
