It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-47659 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-47659/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-47659/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-47659","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-47659/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-47659","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2021-47659","GHSA-9r29-7c4x-xw3r","UBUNTU-CVE-2021-47659"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel DRM","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A memory leak in the Linux kernel DRM subsystem allows attackers to cause a denial of service by triggering resource exhaustion.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndrm/plane: Move range check for format_count earlier\n\nWhile the check for format_count \u003e 64 in __drm_universal_plane_init()\nshouldn't be hit (it's a WARN_ON), in its current position it will then\nleak the plane-\u003eformat_types array and fail to call\ndrm_mode_object_unregister() leaking the modeset identifier.
