🛡️ CVE-2024-53108 — kernel
Description
drm/amd/display: Adjust VSDB parser for replay feature
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Adjust VSDB parser for replay feature
At some point, the IEEE ID identification for the replay check in the
AMD EDID was added. However, this check causes the following
out-of-bounds issues when using KASAN:

[ 27.821268] ==================================================================
This is caused because the ID extraction happens outside of the range of
the edid lenght. This commit addresses this issue by considering the
amd_vsdb_block size.
