CVE-2026-68270 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 10, 2026.

Technical description

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

drm/sysfb: Avoid possible truncation with calculating visible size

Calculating the visible size of the system framebuffer can result in

truncation of the result. The calculation uses 32-bit arithmetics,

which can overflow if the values for height and stride are large. Fix

the issue by multiplying with mul_u32_u32().
