There is no network path.\nAC:L - The leak/UAF triggers when xe_dma_buf_init_obj() fails (ENOMEM in bo creation), a condition the attacker can induce via memory pressure and unlimited retries; per the higher-severity rule this is Low.\nPR:L - The PRIME_FD_TO_HANDLE ioctl is DRM_RENDER_ALLOW and the xe driver exposes DRIVER_RENDER render nodes, so any unprivileged local user with render-node access can trigger it. No real root is required.\nUI:N - The attacker performs the prime-import ioctl directly; no victim action is needed.\nS:U - The dangling attachment and freed bo are kernel-internal to the GPU/dma-buf subsystem; the impact stays within the kernel's security authority.\nC:H - The leaked attachment leaves a dangling importer_priv to the freed bo; via the exporter's move_notify path the freed (reallocatable) object is dereferenced, enabling disclosure of attacker-influenced freed-object contents (UAF).\nI:H - The use-after-free allows the freed bo to be reclaimed and controlled via heap spray, after which xe_dma_buf_move_notify()/xe_bo_evict() operate on attacker-controlled memory, yielding a write/control-flow primitive.\nA:H - Dereferencing the freed bo through the leaked attachment's move_notify callback corrupts kernel state and readily causes an oops/panic; the attachment also constitutes a kernel memory leak."}]}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_dma_buf.c"],"versions":[{"version":"dd08ebf6c3525a7ea2186e636df064ea47281987","lessThan":"d394669e194936d7ce15284a24a5ae334c4c5b74","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"dd08ebf6c3525a7ea2186e636df064ea47281987","lessThan":"0afa8b1ef582ecf6fb04097fd356f8741e5005ed","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"dd08ebf6c3525a7ea2186e636df064ea47281987","lessThan":"eea1e10f8d99c0f04deef707c99705b94bba3b78","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"dd08ebf6c3525a7ea2186e636df064ea47281987","lessThan":"111ab678471bf1f90d078d5513bb086b70596c3c","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/gpu/drm/xe/xe_dma_buf.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.8","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.8","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.90","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.32","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.0.9","lessThanOrEqual":"7.0.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.1","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.8","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.90"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.8","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.32"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.8","versionEndExcluding":"7.0.9"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.8","versionEndExcluding":"7.1"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d394669e194936d7ce15284a24a5ae334c4c5b74"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0afa8b1ef582ecf6fb04097fd356f8741e5005ed"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/eea1e10f8d99c0f04deef707c99705b94bba3b78"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/111ab678471bf1f90d078d5513bb086b70596c3c"}],"title":"drm/xe: Fix dma-buf attachment leak in xe_gem_prime_import()","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
