In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/uapi: Reject coh none PAT index for CPU cached memory in madvise
Add validation in xe vm madvise ioctl() to reject PAT indices with
XE COH NONE coherency mode when applied to CPU cached memory.
Using coh none with CPU cached buffers is a security issue. When the
kernel clears pages before reallocation, the clear operation stays in
CPU cache (dirty). GPU with coh none can bypass CPU caches and read
stale sensitive data directly from DRAM, potentially leaking data from
previously freed pages of other processes.
This aligns with the existing validation in vm bind path
(xe vm bind ioctl validate bo).
