CVE-2019-18810: Canonical Ubuntu Linux

High severity, CVSS 7.5. EPSS: 3.3% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

A memory leak in the komeda_wb_connector_add() function in drivers/gpu/drm/arm/display/komeda/komeda_wb_connector.c in the Linux kernel before 5.3.8 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering drm_writeback_connector_init() failures, aka CID-a0ecd6fdbf5d.

Affected products

• Canonical Ubuntu Linux: version 18.04 only; version 19.10 only
• Linux Linux Kernel: from 5.3, before 5.3.8 (fixed in 5.3.8)
