  "details" : [ "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\ndrm/ast: Fix soft lockup\nThere is a while-loop in ast_dp_set_on_off() that could lead to\ninfinite-loop. This is because the register, VGACRI-Dx, checked in\nthis API is a scratch register actually controlled by a MCU, named\nDPMCU, in BMC.\nThese scratch registers are protected by scu-lock. If suc-lock is not\noff, DPMCU can not update these registers and then host will have soft\nlockup due to never updated status.\nDPMCU is used to control DP and relative registers to handshake with\nhost's VGA driver. Even the most time-consuming task, DP's link\ntraining, is less than 100ms. 200ms should be enough.", "CVE-2024-35952 describes an issue in the Linux kernel's AST graphics driver. The problem occurs in the ast_dp_set_on_off() function, where a lack of proper synchronization with the DisplayPort Microcontroller Unit (DPMCU) can result in an infinite loop. This can cause a \"soft lockup\" in the host system, impacting its availability." ],
