Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
video: fbdev: arkfb: Check the size of screen before memset_io()
In the function arkfb_set_par(), the value of 'screen_size' is
calculated by the user input. If the user provides the improper value,
the value of 'screen_size' may larger than 'info->screen_size', which
may cause the following bug:
[ 659.399066] BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffc90003000000
[ 659.399077] #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode
[ 659.399079] #PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page
[ 659.399094] RIP: 0010:memset_orig+0x33/0xb0
[ 659.399116] Call Trace:

Fix the this by checking the value of 'screen_size' before memset_io().
