Description

Arm Mali GPU Kernel Driver allows a non-privileged user to achieve write access to read-only memory pages. This affects Midgard r26p0 through r31p0, Bifrost r0p0 through r35p0, and Valhall r19p0 through r35p0.

Affected

Our own answer: ranges merged, affected separated from platform-only, with confidence and review flags.

r0p0 ≤ v < r36p0
Affected range stops below r36p0, so it looks safe — our inference, not a vendor statement
r26p0 ≤ v < r32p0
Affected range stops below r32p0, so it looks safe — our inference, not a vendor statement
r19p0 ≤ v < r36p0
Affected range stops below r36p0, so it looks safe — our inference, not a vendor statement
