Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-80919)
Summary
Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2026-80919). 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 recursive ww_mutex acquire in amdgpu_devcoredump_format
When dumping IB contents from a hung job, amdgpu_devcoredump_format()
acquired the VM root PD's reservation via amdgpu_vm_lock_by_pasid() and
then, for each IB, called amdgpu_bo_reserve() on the BO backing the IB.
Both reservations are reservation_ww_class_mutex objects and neither
used a ww_acquire_ctx, which trips lockdep:
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
kworker/u128:0 is trying to acquire lock:

The two reservations are on different BOs in the captured trace, so the
splat is a lockdep-correctness warning, not an observed deadlock. It
becomes a real sel…
