Reallocation of those pages can expose kernel or other-process memory through a retained shared destination.\nI:H - In-flight GPU writes can target freed pages after they are recycled into kernel or other-client allocations, enabling potentially arbitrary memory corruption.\nA:H - The premature unmapping causes GPU translation faults and hangs that require shared-GPU recovery or reset. An unprivileged attacker can repeat the trigger, potentially making graphics-dependent systems unavailable." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/gpu/drm/msm/msm_gem_submit.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "92395af63a9958615edfa9d4ef1ea72c92a00410", "lessThan": "8ee817ceafba266d9c6f3a09babd2ac7441d9a2b", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "92395af63a9958615edfa9d4ef1ea72c92a00410", "lessThan": "86404a9e3013d814a772ac407573be5d3cd4ee0d", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/gpu/drm/msm/msm_gem_submit.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.17", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.17", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.17.8", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.17.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.17", "versionEndExcluding": "6.17.8" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.17", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8ee817ceafba266d9c6f3a09babd2ac7441d9a2b" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/86404a9e3013d814a772ac407573be5d3cd4ee0d" } ], "title": "drm/msm: make sure last_fence is always updated", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
