Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description A flaw exists in the Linux kernel's Panthor driver related to GPU virtual address (GPUVA) region unmapping. Specifically, a kernel panic can occur when userspace attempts to partially unmap a GPU virtual region. The issue arises because the driver pre-allocates memory for new drm gpuva structures needed during map/unmap operations, expecting only one new structure for unmapping, but a partial unmap can require two. This leads to a NULL pointer dereference and subsequent kernel panic. The vulnerability is triggered when the panthor gpuva sm step remap function is called during a partial unmap operation.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
