What it is

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

fbdev: bound mode sysfs output to the sysfs buffer

mode_string() uses snprintf() which can return a value larger than the

remaining buffer space. show_modes() accumulates the return value into i

without checking whether i has reached PAGE_SIZE, causing the offset to

advance past the sysfs buffer if the modelist is long enough.

Add a size parameter to mode_string() and use scnprintf() to return

only the bytes actually written. Add an early return when offset

already exceeds the buffer. In show_modes(), stop accumulating once

the buffer is full.
