Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-05-28 10:16 - Updated: 2026-06-17 10:53

Severity

7.8 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe: Fix dma-buf attachment leak in xe_gem_prime_import() When xe_dma_buf_init_obj() fails, the attachment from dma_buf_dynamic_attach() is not detached. Add dma_buf_detach() before returning the error. Note: we cannot use goto out_err here because xe_dma_buf_init_obj() already frees bo on failure, and out_err would double-free it. (cherry picked from commit a828eb185aac41800df8eae4b60501ccc0dbbe51)

There is no network path.\nAC:L - The leak/UAF triggers when xe_dma_buf_init_obj() fails (ENOMEM in bo creation), a condition the attacker can induce via memory pressure and unlimited retries; per the higher-severity rule this is Low.\nPR:L - The PRIME_FD_TO_HANDLE ioctl is DRM_RENDER_ALLOW and the xe driver exposes DRIVER_RENDER render nodes, so any unprivileged local user with render-node access can trigger it. No real root is required.\nUI:N - The attacker performs the prime-import ioctl directly; no victim action is needed.\nS:U - The dangling attachment and freed bo are kernel-internal to the GPU/dma-buf subsystem; the impact stays within the kernel\u0027s security authority.\nC:H - The leaked attachment leaves a dangling importer_priv to the freed bo; via the exporter\u0027s move_notify path the freed (reallocatable) object is dereferenced, enabling disclosure of attacker-influenced freed-object contents (UAF).\nI:H - The use-after-free allows the freed bo to be reclaimed and controlled via heap spray, after which xe_dma_buf_move_notify()/xe_bo_evict() operate on attacker-controlled memory, yielding a write/control-flow primitive.\nA:H - Dereferencing the freed bo through the leaked attachment\u0027s move_notify callback corrupts kernel state and readily causes an oops/panic; the attachment also constitutes a kernel memory leak."

Detection rules are retrieved from Rulezet.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
