CVE-2026-64546

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/edid: fix OOB read in drm_parse_tiled_block()

drm_parse_tiled_block() casts the DisplayID block to a struct displayid_tiled_block and reads the full fixed layout up to tile->topology_id[7] without checking block->num_bytes. The DisplayID iterator only validates the declared payload length, so a crafted EDID can advertise a tiled-display block (tag DATA_BLOCK_TILED_DISPLAY, or DATA_BLOCK_2_TILED_DISPLAY_TOPOLOGY for v2.0) with a small num_bytes at the end of a DisplayID extension. The read then runs past the end of the exact-sized kmemdup()d EDID allocation, a heap out-of-bounds read.

Reject blocks shorter than the specs 22-byte tiled payload before reading the fixed struct, as drm_parse_vesa_mso_data() already does.
