Subject: CVE-2026-43398: drm/amdgpu: add upper bound check on user inputs in wait ioctl
Date: Fri, 8 May 2026 16:22:07 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <2026050839-CVE-2026-43398-9106@gregkh> (raw)
From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@kernel.org>
Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/amdgpu: add upper bound check on user inputs in wait ioctl
Huge input values in amdgpu_userq_wait_ioctl can lead to a OOM and
could be exploited.
So check these input value against AMDGPU_USERQ_MAX_HANDLES
which is big enough value for genuine use cases and could
potentially avoid OOM.
v2: squash in Srini's fix

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:
