Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Linux Kernel up to 6.12.109/6.18.50/7.2.4. It has been classified as very critical. Affected is the function __set_dm_plane_degamma of the file drm/amd/display of the component Plane Degamma LUT Validation. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a out-of-bounds vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-125. The product reads data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer. This is going to have an impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: validate plane degamma LUT size for private color prop Unlike the CRTC degamma path, which is guarded by amdgpu_dm_verify_lut_sizes(), the per-plane degamma LUT size was never validated before use. __set_dm_plane_degamma() passed the user-supplied size straight into __is_lut_linear() and, for a non-linear LUT, into __set_input_tf() -> __drm_lut_to_dc_gamma(), the latter always iterating MAX_COLOR_LUT_ENTRIES entries regardless of the actual LUT size. A malformed AMD_PLANE_DEGAMMA_LUT blob (e.g. a single entry) could thus trigger a divide-by-zero in __is_lut_linear() or an out-of-bounds read in __drm_lut_to_dc_gamma(). Reject any plane degamma LUT whose size does not match MAX_COLOR_LUT_ENTRIES, mirroring the invariant the code already asserts a few lines below (and which the CRTC path enforces). The AMD_PLANE_DEGAMMA_LUT property is only exposed on builds with AMD_PRIVATE_COLOR defined.

The advisory is shared for download at git.kernel.org. This vulnerability is traded as CVE-2026-89819 since 09/11/2026. The exploitability is told to be easy. The attack needs to be approached locally. There are known technical details, but no exploit is available. The current price for an exploit might be approx. USD $0-$5k (estimation calculated on 09/16/2026).

Upgrading to version 6.12.110, 6.18.51, 7.2.5 or 7.3-rc1 eliminates this vulnerability. Applying the patch f6f04d8ae5725bcc893bdc62e3467efd97255c5b/0b2615b8b54f58bbdf986dffb38cbc35214a5cc5/b10cc09b329245c6d95f8fa3e7f068575e3e0e9f/e4c3ab59021e7c146a84b6671f0d530972bd58b4 is able to eliminate this problem. The best possible mitigation is suggested to be upgrading to the latest version.
