CVE-2026-98515
En el kernel de Linux se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad:
drm/nouveau: fix double-free in nvif_vmm_dtor
Si se produce un fallo, nouveau_cli_init() llama a nouveau_cli_fini() para desmontar el cliente. Después, nouveau_drm_open() también entra en su ruta de limpieza y vuelve a llamar a nouveau_cli_fini(). nouveau_cli_fini() llama a nouveau_vmm_fini():
Dentro de nvif_vmm_dtor(), vmm->page se libera incondicionalmente:
vmm->page nunca se anula tras liberarse, por lo que la segunda llamada a nvif_vmm_dtor() provocará un double-free.
Detectado mediante fuzzing del controlador nouveau con un Syzkaller modificado:
