In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/edid: fix OOB read in drm_parse_tiled_block()
drm_parse_tiled_block() casts the DisplayID block to a
struct displayid_tiled_block and reads the full fixed layout up to
tile->topology_id[7] without checking block->num_bytes. The DisplayID
iterator only validates the declared payload length, so a crafted EDID
can advertise a tiled-display block (tag DATA_BLOCK_TILED_DISPLAY, or
DATA_BLOCK_2_TILED_DISPLAY_TOPOLOGY for v2.0) with a small num_bytes at
the end of a DisplayID extension. The read then runs past the end of the
exact-sized kmemdup()'d EDID allocation, a heap out-of-bounds read.
Reject blocks shorter than the spec's 22-byte tiled payload before
reading the fixed struct, as drm_parse_vesa_mso_data() already does.
