CVE-2026-74449

7.8 · HIGH
Published Aug 15, 2026 EPSS 0.12% (2th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2026-74449 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 15, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8, rated HIGH. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical Description

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

drm/amd/display: Fix divide-by-zero in calculate_mcache_setting on zero viewport

If a plane reaches calculate_mcache_setting with a zero-area viewport,

calculate_mcache_setting exits early with num_mcaches == 0 and

mvmpg_width/height == 0. This will cause a divide-by-zero panic and can

also cause an underflow on num_mcaches.

Fix this by changing calculate_mcache_setting to bool and adding guards

after each calculate_mcache_row_bytes call. If num_mcaches or

mvmpg_width/height is zero, return a false. Callers will propagate the

failure as a rejected mode, which prevents the panic.

(cherry picked from commit 29c0f7c655f47bcbd575ff75e58480df6ec3c9da)
