CVE-2026-80606
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/userptr: Hold notifier_lock for write on inject test path
When CONFIG_DRM_XE_USERPTR_INVAL_INJECT=y, xe_pt_svm_userptr_pre_commit() runs vma_check_userptr() with the svm notifier_lock taken for read. The test injection causes vma_check_userptr() to call xe_vma_userptr_force_invalidate(), which feeds into xe_vma_userptr_do_inval() with drm_gpusvm_ctx.in_notifier=true. That flag tells drm_gpusvm_unmap_pages() the caller already holds notifier_lock for write and only asserts the mode. Because the caller actually holds it for read, the assertion fires:
Leer descripción completaMostrar menos
Acquire notifier_lock for write in pre-commit when the inject Kconfig is enabled, via new helpers xe_pt_svm_userptr_notifier_lock()/_unlock(). Rename xe_svm_assert_held_read() to xe_svm_assert_held_read_or_inject_write() so it asserts the correct mode under each build configuration. Production builds (CONFIG_DRM_XE_USERPTR_INVAL_INJECT=n) keep the existing read-mode behavior bit-for-bit.
(cherry picked from commit 80ccbd97ffee8ad2e73167d826fe7be548364365)
