CVE-2023-52648: kernel: drm/vmwgfx: Unmap the surface before resetting it on a plane state
Component: kernel
Severity: Moderate
CVSS v3: 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
Public date: 2024-05-01T00:00:00+00:00

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

drm/vmwgfx: Unmap the surface before resetting it on a plane state

Switch to a new plane state requires unreferencing of all held surfaces.
In the work required for mob cursors the mapped surfaces started being
cached but the variable indicating whether the surface is currently
mapped was not being reset. This leads to crashes as the duplicated
state, incorrectly, indicates the that surface is mapped even when
no surface is present. That's because after unreferencing the surface
it's perfectly possible for the plane to be backed by a bo instead of a
surface.

Reset the surface mapped flag when unreferencing the plane state surface
to fix null derefs in cleanup. Fixes crashes in KDE KWin 6.0 on Wayland:
