A flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s implementation of Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) technology. A firmware identifier string is duplicated with the kstrdup function, and the allocation may fail under very low memory conditions. An attacker could abuse this flaw by causing a Denial of Service and crashing the system.
