https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=243533 Bug ID: 243533 Summary: vt_fb.c can overwrite frame buffer bounds if stride length is not a multiple of bytes-per-pixel Product: Base System Version: CURRENT Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: kern Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: thoma555-bsd@yahoo.com Created attachment 210977 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=210977&action=edit fix vt_fb_blank(). I'm developing a frame buffer driver for hardware using 3 bytes per pixel but the hardware requires the stride to be a multiple of 256 bytes. Because the stride is not a multiple of 3 bytes, the way vt_fb_blank() is coded, it writes past the end of each stride and, on the last line, writes past the end of the frame buffer. This is caught by a KASSERT in vt_fb_mem_wr1(). I think the loops in vt_fb_blank() could just stop at the end of the line (fb_width) instead of clearing memory all the way to the end of a stride. The other way would be to limit the loops with fb_stride - 1, fb_stride - 2, fb_stride - 3 for the cases of 2,3,4 bytes per pixel. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
