Aug 4 RESCORED — CVE-2024-35950 (Linux). CVSS 7.8 → 5.5 (NVD).
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/client: Fully protect modes[] with dev->mode_config.mutex
The modes[] array contains pointers to modes on the connectors'
mode lists, which are protected by dev->mode_config.mutex.
Thus we need to extend modes[] the same protection or by the
time we use it the elements may already be pointing to
freed/reused memory.
