Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Improper control of a resource through its lifetime (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-31462)

CWE-ID: CWE-664 - Improper control of a resource through its lifetime

CVSSv4: 6.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


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

The vulnerability exists due to improper resource management in the amdgpu PASID allocation logic when reusing a PASID immediately after process exit. A local user can trigger immediate PASID reuse to cause a denial of service.

Pending page faults may still remain in the IH ring buffer from the previous process when the PASID is reused.
