# CVE-2024-57919: drm/amd/display: fix divide error in DM plane scale calcs > A divide-by-zero error in the AMD display driver causes a kernel oops, leading to system denial of service. - **Severity:** Medium 5.5 (`CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H`) - **Exploited in the wild:** Not known - **Login needed:** Any signed-in user - **Attackable:** Local or same network only - **Victim action needed:** Not needed - **Fix available:** Yes - **Published:** 19 Jan 2025 - **Updated:** 11 May 2026 - **Also known as:** BELL-CVE-2024-57919, DEBIAN-CVE-2024-57919, GHSA-v5jf-jh4j-87cv, UBUNTU-CVE-2024-57919 ## What is CVE-2024-57919? CVE-2024-57919 is a medium-severity denial of service vulnerability in Linux kernel, published on 19 Jan 2025. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim. ### Official description In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: fix divide error in DM plane scale calcs dm_get_plane_scale doesn't take into account plane scaled size equal to zero, leading to a kernel oops due to division by zero. Fix by setting out-scale size as zero when the dst size is zero, similar to what is done by drm_calc_scale(). This issue started with the introduction of cursor ovelay mode that uses this function to assess cursor mode changes via dm_crtc_get_cursor_mode() before checking plane state.

What it is: CVE-2024-57919 is a medium-severity denial of service vulnerability in Linux kernel, published on 19 Jan 2025. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim. Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-57919 in the wild and no public exploit code. Affected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page. Task: 1. 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. 2. 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. 3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead. 4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why. 5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
