In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/i915/bios: range check LFP Data Block panel_type2
While the panel_type from LFP Data Block is range checked, panel_type2
is not. Add a few helpers for range checking, and use them to not only
check panel_type2, but also improve clarity and correctness in the panel
type selection.
Discovered using AI-assisted static analysis confirmed by Intel Product
Security.
v2:
- Fix commit message typo (Michał)
- Add is_panel_type_pnp() (Ville)
