🇰🇷 한글 설명
Linux 커널의 amdgpu 드라이버에서 DSC 검증 중에 mode_changed 플래그를 잘못 재설정하는 버그입니다. 외부 DP-MST 화면 연결 시 통합 패널의 DSC 설정이 변경되지 않으면 해당 패널의 플래그가 잘못 제거되어 메모리 누수 및 use-after-free 취약점이 발생합니다.
💡 쉬운 설명
그래픽 드라이버가 여러 화면을 설정할 때 이전 화면 정보를 정리하지 않아 메모리가 누수되거나 삭제된 메모리에 접근하는 오류가 발생합니다. 이로 인해 시스템이 불안정해지고 크래시할 수 있습니다.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amd/display: Do not skip unrelated mode changes in DSC validation
Starting with commit 17ce8a6907f7 ("drm/amd/display: Add dsc pre-validation in
atomic check"), amdgpu resets the CRTC state mode_changed flag to false when
recomputing the DSC configuration results in no timing change for a particular
stream.
However, this is incorrect in scenarios where a change in MST/DSC configuration
happens in the same KMS commit as another (unrelated) mode change. For example,
the integrated panel of a laptop may be configured differently (e.g., HDR
enabled/disabled) depending on whether external screens are attached. In this
case, plugging in external DP-MST screens may result in the mode_changed flag
being dropped incorrectly for the integrated panel if its DSC configuration
did not change during precomputation in pre_validate_dsc().
At this point, however, dm_update_crtc_state() has already created new streams
for CRTCs with DSC-independent mode changes. In turn,
amdgpu_dm_commit_streams() will never release the old stream, resulting in a
memory leak. amdgpu_dm_atomic_commit_tail() will never acquire a reference to
the new stream either, which manifests as a use-after-free when the stream gets
disabled later on:

Since there is no reliable way of figuring out whether a CRTC has unrelated
mode changes pending at the time of DSC validation, remember the value of the
mode_changed flag from before the point where a CRTC was marked as potentially
affected by a change in DSC configuration. Reset the mode_changed flag to this
earlier value instead in pre_validate_dsc().
