1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64050)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

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 use-after-free in the dpu_writeback_init writeback connector initialization in the msm drm driver when interacting with the wb connector after driver teardown while a reference to the drm device is retained. A local user can keep a userspace reference to the drm device and interact with the wb connector to cause a denial of service.
