CVE-2026-89553

Estado: RecibidaAlta (7.8)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

nouveau/gem: reserve the bo in the info ioctl around the vma lookup

In the non-uvmm path, there could be a race between the info lookup finding the vma, and the gem close path closing the vma leading to a use-after-free.

Spotted with the help of Opus 4.6.

CVSS

Versión: 3.1
Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
