Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Incomplete cleanup (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-98910)

CWE-ID: CWE-459 - Incomplete cleanup

CVSSv4: 4.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to disrupt subsequent GPU debug trap enable and disable operations.

The vulnerability exists due to incomplete cleanup in the Linux kernel AMD KFD kfd_dbg_trap_enable() function when copying runtime information to userspace fails. A local user can trigger a copy_to_user() failure during debug trap setup to leave inconsistent trap state and an unbalanced process reference count, potentially disrupting subsequent debug trap enable and disable operations.
