CVE-2026-68274
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/guc: Fix buffer overflow in steered register list allocation
The size calculation for the steered register extarray uses only the geometry DSS mask (g_dss_mask) to determine the number of entries to allocate:
However, the filling loop uses for_each_dss_steering(), which iterates over for_each_dss(), defined as the union of g_dss_mask and c_dss_mask (geometry + compute DSS). On platforms with compute-only DSS bits, the loop writes past the allocated buffer, corrupting adjacent slab objects.
This manifests as list_del corruption and SLUB redzone overwrites during drm_managed_release on device unbind, since the overflow corrupts the drmres list_head of neighboring allocations.

Fix by computing the allocation size using the union of both DSS masks, matching the iteration pattern of for_each_dss_steering().
-- v2: - use bitmap_weighted_or() (Zhanjun)
(cherry picked from commit 0a78a44f4901aa6c9263e66be7fce02282f1109f)

- Puntuación base: 7.8
Probabilidad de explotación (EPSS)
- Probabilidad de explotación en los próximos 30 días: 0.19%
- Percentil entre todas las CVEs puntuadas: 8
- Fecha de la puntuación: 5/10/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, de FIRST) estima la probabilidad de que una vulnerabilidad sea explotada en 30 días. Complementa a CVSS (impacto) y a CISA KEV (explotación confirmada).
🎯 Técnicas ATT&CK
Cómo se explota esta vulnerabilidad y qué consigue el atacante, en el lenguaje de MITRE ATT&CK.
- Explotación
T1068Exploitation for Privilege Escalationprivilege escalation85 % - Impacto principal
T1565.001Stored Data Manipulationimpact75 % - Impacto secundario
T1499.004Application or System Exploitationimpact70 %
Acceso local (AV:L/PR:L) sin interacción permite un proceso con privilegios de usuario escalar mediante corrupción de memoria en el kernel; el desbordamiento de búfer corrompe estructuras de datos adyacentes (list_head, redzone) causando fallos DoS.
Inferido por nuestro agente de análisis a partir de la descripción oficial, el vector CVSS y la CWE, y comprobado por un supervisor. Puede contener errores.
