When the requested size\nexceeds SVGA_REG_CURSOR_MAX_DIMENSION or SVGA_REG_MOB_MAX_SIZE,\nvmw_cursor_mob_get() returns -EINVAL and leaves vps->cursor.mob NULL.\nIts return value is then discarded in vmw_cursor_plane_prepare_fb(),\nso the subsequent vmw_cursor_update_mob() calls\nvmw_bo_map_and_cache(NULL) and oopses inside\nvmw_bo_map_and_cache_size() on the tbo.base.size load.\n\nReachable from any DRM master via DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CURSOR2 with a\nsufficiently large width or height (e.g. cursor_max_dim + 1).\n\nReject oversized cursors in atomic_check for both MOB-backed cursor\nupdate types.  The MOB byte-size limit only applies to the\nSVGA_CAP2_CURSOR_MOB path (vmw_cursor_mob_size() returns 0 for\nGB_ONLY); compute the required MOB size in 64-bit to avoid overflow\nwhen very large dimensions are requested.\n\nIn prepare_fb only call vmw_cursor_mob_get()/_map() for\nVMW_CURSOR_UPDATE_MOB -- the GB_ONLY path uses bo->map.virtual\ndirectly and would otherwise be silently downgraded to NONE on hosts\nwithout SVGA_CAP2_CURSOR_MOB (where vmw_cursor_mob_get() always\nreturns -EINVAL).  Degrade the update to NONE if vmw_cursor_mob_get()\nor vmw_cursor_mob_map() fails so the update path does not run with a\nNULL backing MOB.","published":"2026-08-28T08:16:56.000Z","lastModified":"2026-08-28T08:16:56.000Z","status":"Received","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":null,"cwe":[],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00206,"percentile":0.10606,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"unknown","text":"Not yet scored.
