Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-63880)

Summary

Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-63880). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

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

drm/amdgpu: fix lock leak on ENOMEM in AMDGPU_GEM_OP_GET_MAPPING_INFO

The AMDGPU_GEM_OP_GET_MAPPING_INFO branch of amdgpu_gem_op_ioctl()
holds three cleanup-tracked resources before calling kvcalloc():
the drm_gem_object reference from drm_gem_object_lookup(), the
drm_exec lock on the looked-up GEM via drm_exec_lock_obj(), and
the drm_exec lock on the per-process VM root page directory via
amdgpu_vm_lock_pd(). All three are released by the out_exec
label that every other error path in this function jumps to.
The kvcalloc() failure path returns -ENOMEM directly, skipping
out_exec and leaking all three.

The leaked per-process VM root PD dma_resv lock is the
load-bearing leak: any subsequent operation on the same VM
(further GEM ops, command-submission, eviction, TTM shrinker
callbacks) blocks on the held lock. DRM_IOCTL_AMDGPU_GEM_OP is
DRM_AUTH | DRM_RENDER_ALLOW, so this is an unprivileged-local
denial of service against the caller's GPU context, reachable
by any process with /dev/dri/renderD* access.

Route the failure through out_exec so drm_exec_fini() and
drm_gem_object_put() run.

Reproduced on stock 7.0.0-10, Ryzen 7 5700U / Radeon Vega
(Lucienne): the failing ioctl returns -ENOMEM and a second
GET_MAPPING_INFO on the same fd then blocks in
drm_exec_lock_obj() on the leaked dma_resv. SIGKILL on the
caller does not reap the task; the fd-release path during
process exit goes through amdgpu_gem_objec…
