Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 security vulnerability.


1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-23429)

The vulnerability allows a local user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in iommu_sva_unbind_device() when unbinding a device from an IOMMU SVA domain. A local user can trigger the unbind operation to cause a denial of service.

The issue occurs because domain->mm->iommu_mm may be accessed after iommu_domain_free() has freed the associated mm structure, resulting in a kernel crash.
