CVE-2024-35823 is a memory-corruption vulnerability in the Linux kernel virtual-terminal (vt) subsystem's Unicode character-buffer handling. Deleting characters can require copying data between overlapping regions of the Unicode buffer. The affected code used memcpy(), whose behavior is undefined for overlapping source and destination ranges, rather than memmove(), which safely handles overlap. This can corrupt virtual-terminal Unicode buffer contents.
