Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-06-18 12:30 – Updated: 2025-11-14 18:31In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
video: fbdev: i740fb: Check the argument of i740_calc_vclk()
Since the user can control the arguments of the ioctl() from the user space, under special arguments that may result in a divide-by-zero bug.
If the user provides an improper 'pixclock' value that makes the argumet of i740_calc_vclk() less than 'I740_RFREQ_FIX', it will cause a divide-by-zero bug in: drivers/video/fbdev/i740fb.c:353 p_best = min(15, ilog2(I740_MAX_VCO_FREQ / (freq / I740_RFREQ_FIX)));
The following log can reveal it:
divide error: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI RIP: 0010:i740_calc_vclk drivers/video/fbdev/i740fb.c:353 [inline] RIP: 0010:i740fb_decode_var drivers/video/fbdev/i740fb.c:646 [inline] RIP: 0010:i740fb_set_par+0x163f/0x3b70 drivers/video/fbdev/i740fb.c:742 Call Trace: fb_set_var+0x604/0xeb0 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c:1034 do_fb_ioctl+0x234/0x670 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c:1110 fb_ioctl+0xdd/0x130 drivers/video/fbdev/core/fbmem.c:1189
Fix this by checking the argument of i740_calc_vclk() first.
