CVE-2026-23266
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: rivafb: fix divide error in nv3_arb()
A userspace program can trigger the RIVA NV3 arbitration code by calling the FBIOPUT_VSCREENINFO ioctl on /dev/fb*. When doing so, the driver recomputes FIFO arbitration parameters in nv3_arb(), using state->mclk_khz (derived from the PRAMDAC MCLK PLL) as a divisor without validating it first.
In a normal setup, state->mclk_khz is provided by the real hardware and is non-zero.

However, an attacker can construct a malicious or misconfigured device (e.g. a crafted/emulated PCI device) that exposes a bogus PLL configuration, causing state->mclk_khz to become zero. Once nv3_get_param() calls nv3_arb(), the division by state->mclk_khz in the gns calculation causes a divide error and crashes the kernel.
Fix this by checking whether state->mclk_khz is zero and bailing out before doing the division.
The following log reveals it:
