Last modified

CVE-2013-7445 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The Direct Rendering Manager (DRM) subsystem in the Linux kernel through 4.x mishandles requests for Graphics Execution Manager (GEM) objects, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via an application that processes graphics data, as demonstrated by JavaScript code that creates many CANVAS elements for rendering by Chrome or Firefox.. EPSS estimates a 2.73% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
