CVE-2025-38205

drm/amd/display: Avoid divide by zero by initializing dummy pitch to 1

Published Jul 4, 2025 CVSS 3.1 · 5.5 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amd/display: Avoid divide by zero by initializing dummy pitch to 1

[Why]
If the dummy values in `populate_dummy_dml_surface_cfg()` aren't updated
then they can lead to a divide by zero in downstream callers like
CalculateVMAndRowBytes()

[How]
Initialize dummy value to a value to avoid divide by zero.
