Details

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

video: fbdev: cirrusfb: check pixclock to avoid divide by zero

Do a sanity check on pixclock value to avoid divide by zero.

If the pixclock value is zero, the cirrusfb driver will round up pixclock to get the derived frequency as close to maxclock as possible.

Syzkaller reported a divide error in cirrusfb_check_pixclock.
