kernel: vmwgfx: integer overflow in vmwgfx_execbuf.c

An integer overflow was found in the Linux kernel's vmwgfx driver. This flaw allows a local, unprivileged attacker with access to either /dev/dri/card0 or /dev/dri/rendererD128, and able to issue an ioctl on the resulting file descriptor to crash the system, causing a denial of service...

kernel: vmwgfx: reference count issue leads to use-after-free in surface handling

The reference count changes made as part of the CVE-2023-33951 and CVE-2023-33952 fixes exposed a use-after-free flaw in the way memory objects were handled when they were being used to store a surface. When running inside a VMware guest with 3D acceleration enabled, a local, unprivileged user...
