CVE-2026-98515CVE-2026-98515

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/nouveau: fix double-free in nvif_vmm_dtor On failure, nouveau_cli_init() calls nouveau_cli_fini() to tear the client down. Then, nouveau_drm_open() also enters into its cleanup path and calls nouveau_cli_fini() AGAIN. nouveau_cli_fini() calls nouveau_vmm_fini(): void nouveau_vmm_fini(struct nouveau_vmm *vmm) { nouveau_svmm_fini(&vmm->svmm); nvif_vmm_dtor(&vmm->vmm); vmm->cli = NULL; } Inside nvif_vmm_dtor(), vmm->page is freed unconditionally: void nvif_vmm_dtor(struct nvif_vmm *vmm) { kfree(vmm->page); nvif_object_dtor(&vmm->object); } vmm->page is never cleared after being freed, so the second call of nvif_vmm_dtor() will cause a double-free. Found by fuzzing the nouveau driver with a modified Syzkaller: BUG: KASAN: double-free in nvif_vmm_dtor+0x31/0x50 drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau/nvif/vmm.c:194 Free of addr ffff888010fcdc30 by task syz.0.173/2567 CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 2567 Comm: syz.0.173
