[PATCH v4 0/2] drm/nouveau/dmem: Fix Vulnerability and Device Channels configuration
From: Yonatan Maman <Ymaman at Nvidia.com>
This patch series addresses two critical issues in the Nouveau driver
related to device channels, error handling, and sensitive data leaks.
- Vulnerability in migrate_to_ram: The migrate_to_ram function might
return a dirty HIGH_USER page when a copy push command (FW channel)
fails, potentially exposing sensitive data and posing a security
risk. To mitigate this, the patch ensures the allocation of a non-dirty
(zero) page for the destination, preventing the return of a dirty page
and enhancing driver security in case of...

dirty HIGH_USER page to the user.
This exposes a security vulnerability in the nouveau driver. To prevent
memory leaks in `migrate_to_ram` upon a copy error, allocate a zero
page for the destination page.

[PATCH 0/2] *** BUG Fix for Nouveau Memory***
...ch series addresses two critical issues in the Nouveau driver related to device channels, error handling and memory leaking.
- Memory Leak in migrate_to_ram - the migrate_to_ram function was identified as leaking memory when a copy push command fails. This results in the function returning a dirty HIGH_USER page, which can expose sensitive information and pose a security risk. To mitigate this vulnerability, the patch ensures that a zero page is allocated for the destination page, thereby preventing memory leaks and enhancing the security of the driver in case of failure.
- Privileged Error in Copy E...
