CVE-2026-43169 Detail
Awaiting Enrichment
This CVE record has been marked for NVD enrichment efforts. DescriptionIn the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/buddy: Prevent BUG_ON by validating rounded allocation When DRM_BUDDY_CONTIGUOUS_ALLOCATION is set, the requested size is rounded up to the next power-of-two via roundup_pow_of_two(). Similarly, for non-contiguous allocations with large min_block_size, the size is aligned up via round_up(). Both operations can produce a rounded size that exceeds mm->size, which later triggers BUG_ON(order > mm->max_order). Example scenarios: - 9G CONTIGUOUS allocation on 10G VRAM memory: roundup_pow_of_two(9G) = 16G > 10G - 9G allocation with 8G min_block_size on 10G VRAM memory: round_up(9G, 8G) = 16G > 10G Fix this by checking the rounded size against mm->size. For non-contiguous or range allocations where size > mm->size is invalid, return -EINVAL immediately. For contiguous allocations without range restrictions, allow the request to fall through to the existing __alloc_contig_try_harder() fallback. This ensures invalid user input returns an error or uses the fallback path instead of hitting BUG_ON. v2: (Matt A) - Add Fixes, Cc stable, and Closes tags for context Metrics
