Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/vmwgfx: drop dma_buf reference on foreign-fd prime import
ttm_prime_fd_to_handle() returns -ENOSYS when the imported fd's
dma_buf->ops do not match the ttm_object_device's ops, but does so
without releasing the reference acquired by dma_buf_get(). Any
unprivileged renderD client passing a non-vmwgfx prime fd through the
DRM_VMW_GB_SURFACE_REF{,_EXT} path leaks one dma_buf reference per
call and indefinitely pins the foreign exporter's GEM resources.
Funnel the error path through the existing dma_buf_put() so the
reference is always dropped.
The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-80888 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========
The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
