CVE-2026-68255

EUVD-2026-55356
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/virtio: bound EDID block reads to the response buffer

virtio_get_edid_block() validates the read offset only against the
device-supplied resp->size field, never against the fixed-size resp->edid
array. The EDID block index is driven by the device-supplied extension
count, so a malicious virtio-gpu backend can advertise a large size
together with a high block count and read far past the array into adjacent
kernel memory, which is then surfaced in the parsed EDID (an out-of-bounds
read / info leak).

Also reject any read whose end exceeds the size of the edid array.
Conforming EDID responses stay within the array and are unaffected.
