CVE-2026-68266CVE-2026-68266
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: Hold a dma-buf reference for imported BOs
An imported dma-buf BO is created as a ttm_bo_type_sg BO whose
reservation object is the exporter's dma_buf->resv. The importer,
however, only takes a dma-buf reference after a successful
dma_buf_dynamic_attach(). Until then nothing keeps the exporter alive,
so if the exporter is freed while the BO still references its resv, a
later access to that resv is a use-after-free:
Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address
0x6b6b6b6b6b6b6b9c
Workqueue: ttm ttm_bo_delayed_delete [ttm]
RIP: 0010:mutex_can_spin_on_owner+0x3f/0xc0
This can be reached on two paths:
- dma_buf_dynamic_attach() fails, or
- ttm_bo_init_reserved() fails during BO creation.
In both cases the BO already has bo->base.resv pointing at the exporter
resv, and sg BOs are always torn down via ttm_bo_delayed_delete(), which
locks bo->base.resv asynchronously - potenti
