CVE-2026-53136 is an out-of-bounds heap write vulnerability in the Linux kernel AMD display driver. In the drm/amd/display subsystem, the VBIOS integrated information table parsers for versions v1_11 and v2_1 use the HdmiRegNum and Hdmi6GRegNum fields as loop bounds when copying HDMI retimer I2C register settings into fixed-size destination arrays. These fields are 8-bit values and were not validated before use. A malformed VBIOS can therefore specify counts larger than the destination arrays, causing writes past the end of the heap-allocated buffers during driver probe. The issue affects the code paths in get_integrated_info_v11() and get_integrated_info_v2_1(). The fix clamps each register count to the corresponding destination array size before the copy loops execute.
