Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Mali GPU driver (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue is related to improper GPU processing operations that can be performed by a local non-privileged user, potentially allowing access to limited areas outside of buffer bounds or exploiting a software race condition. This could grant access to already freed memory if the system's memory is carefully prepared. The vulnerability is also associated with synchronization errors when using shared resources in the Mali GPU driver based on Arm and Valhall architectures, which can lead to incorrect processing operations.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
