## Overview

An out-of-bounds(OOB) memory access vulnerability was found in vmwgfx driver in drivers/gpu/vmxgfx/vmxgfx_kms.c in GPU component in the Linux kernel with device file '/dev/dri/renderD128 (or Dxxx)'. This flaw allows a local attacker with a user account on the system to gain privilege, causing a denial of service(DoS).

## Affected

- `linux_kernel >= 3.2, <= 5.13.0-52`
- `debian_linux = 11.0`

## Remediation

Refer to the linked advisories for vendor-supplied fixes and affected version ranges.
