Subject: [PATCH] drm: limit property blob creation per file
Date: Sat, 3 Jan 2026 10:25:29 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <tencent_B0A522AEEC81573BA9934E2340B672ABDA09@qq.com> (raw)
DRM_IOCTL_MODE_CREATEPROPBLOB allows userspace to create property blobs
whose lifetime is scoped to a drm_file.
Currently, a single drm_file may create an unbounded number of blobs.
Repeated ioctl calls can trigger unbounded kernel memory allocation and
lead to OOM, resulting in a denial-of-service.
Introduce a per-drm_file limit on the number of user-created property
blobs. The limit is enforced at the point where a blob becomes associated
with a drm_file, matching the existing ownership and lifetime model.
This bounds per-file allocations while the total number of DRM file
descriptors remains constrained by existing kernel limits.
