CVE-2022-49963 Vulnerability Summary

CVE-2022-49963: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/i915/ttm: fix CCS handling Crucible + recent Mesa seems to sometimes hit: GEM_BUG_ON(num_ccs_blks > NUM_CCS_BLKS_PER_XFER) And it looks like we can also trigger this with gem_lmem_swapping, if we modify the test to use slightly larger object sizes. Looking closer it looks like we have the following issues in migrate_copy(): - We are using plain integer in various places, which we can easily overflow with a large object. - We pass the entire object size (when the src is lmem) into emit_pte() and then try to copy it, which doesn't work, since we only have a few fixed sized windows in which to map the pages and perform the copy. With an object > 8M we therefore aren't properly copying the pages. And then with an object > 64M we trigger the GEM_BUG_ON(num_ccs_blks > NUM_CCS_BLKS_PER_XFER). So it looks like our copy handling for any object > 8M (which is our CHUNK_SZ) is currently broken on DG2. Testcase: igt@gem_lmem_swapping (cherry picked from commit 8676145eb2f53a9940ff70910caf0125bd8a4bc2)

Assessing the Risk of CVE-2022-49963

Access Complexity Graph

The exploitability of CVE-2022-49963 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).

Exploitability Analysis for CVE-2022-49963

No exploitability data is available for CVE-2022-49963.

Understanding AC and PR

A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.

Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.

Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.

CVSS Score Breakdown Chart

Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2022-49963, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.
