Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-05-17 15:31 – Updated: 2025-01-10 18:31

Details

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

drm/nouveau: fix stale locked mutex in nouveau_gem_ioctl_pushbuf

If VM_BIND is enabled on the client the legacy submission ioctl can't be used, however if a client tries to do so regardless it will return an error. In this case the clients mutex remained unlocked leading to a deadlock inside nouveau_drm_postclose or any other nouveau ioctl call.

Severity

5.5 (Medium)

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.
