there is no network or remote-peer input anywhere on the path.\nAC:L - On any affected platform (one whose compute DSS mask contains bits outside the geometry DSS mask) the undersized allocation and the for_each_dss_steering() fill loop mismatch is fully deterministic, so the out-of-bounds write occurs reliably on every driver load without needing a race or a lucky memory layout.\nPR:L - The overflow happens in the xe driver's GuC initialization path, so an attacker needs only ordinary local access to a system with the affected Intel GPU present; no capability check or elevated privilege gates the corrupted code path itself.\nUI:N - No victim action is needed; the buffer overflow occurs automatically during xe_guc_ads_populate() at device probe, with no file to open, filesystem to mount, or user gesture involved.\nS:U - The out-of-bounds write corrupts kernel slab objects belonging to the same kernel security authority; there is no crossing of a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - The overflow overwrites adjacent slab objects including drmres list_head pointers, and such heap metadata corruption can be leveraged to make subsequent list operations dereference attacker-influenceable heap contents, so an information-disclosure primitive cannot be ruled out.\nI:H - This is a heap out-of-bounds write past the end of the drmm_kzalloc'd extarray, overwriting neighboring allocations' contents and list linkage, which is exactly the class of corruption that yields arbitrary-write and control-flow-hijack primitives.\nA:H - The corruption is confirmed to produce list_del corruption and SLUB redzone overwrites, causing kernel oops/panic during drm_managed_release on device unbind and unpredictable slab corruption beforehand." } ] } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_guc_capture.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "b170d696c1e2226713471d810c63b1162335079f", "lessThan": "b485bfb45555163bfa5f565d6a3415fcb3035b02", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "b170d696c1e2226713471d810c63b1162335079f", "lessThan": "a9a020f3c11eba6573b699f9cf9245a51b025ade", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "b170d696c1e2226713471d810c63b1162335079f", "lessThan": "632ecc90e1ca5d3b6822bb4d08f84a175b6c42c0", "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/xe/xe_guc_capture.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.13", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.13", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.44", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.1.6", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.1.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.2", "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": "6.13", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.44" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.13", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1.6" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.13", "versionEndExcluding": "7.2" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b485bfb45555163bfa5f565d6a3415fcb3035b02" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a9a020f3c11eba6573b699f9cf9245a51b025ade" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/632ecc90e1ca5d3b6822bb4d08f84a175b6c42c0" } ], "title": "drm/xe/guc: Fix buffer overflow in steered register list allocation", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } }, "adp": [ { "metrics": [ { "other": { "type": "ssvc", "content": { "id": "CVE-2026-68274", "role": "CISA Coordinator", "options": [ { "Exploitation": "none" }, { "Automatable": "no" }, { "Technical Impact": "total" } ], "version": "2.0.3", "timestamp": "2026-10-16T15:46:31.440786Z" } } } ], "title": "CISA ADP Vulnrichment", "providerMetadata": { "orgId": "134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0", "shortName": "CISA-ADP", "dateUpdated": "2026-10-16T15:53:05.971Z" } } ] } }
