Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description A flaw exists in the Linux kernel related to redundant scheduler job cleanup when command submission is aborted. Specifically, after command submission fails due to userptr invalidation in amdgpu cs submit, legacy code performs unnecessary cleanup of the scheduler job. This can lead to a double-free condition and a subsequent NULL pointer dereference.

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