CVE-2026-97604CVE-2026-97604
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
fbdev: vfb: defer cleanup until the last reference
FBIOGETCMAP takes a shallow snapshot of info->cmap and performs the
usercopy after dropping info->lock. vfb_remove() frees the colormap
immediately after unregistering the framebuffer, even when an open file
still holds a reference to fb_info. A concurrent driver unbind can
therefore free the colormap while the ioctl copies it to userspace.
