CVE-2025-40322
fbdev: bitblit: bound-check glyph index in bit_putcs*
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: bitblit: bound-check glyph index in bit_putcs*
bit_putcs_aligned()/unaligned() derived the glyph pointer from the
character value masked by 0xff/0x1ff, which may exceed the actual font's
glyph count and read past the end of the built-in font array.
Clamp the index to the actual glyph count before computing the address.
This fixes a global out-of-bounds read reported by syzbot.
