Use-after-free in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-64099

Published: July 20, 2026


Vulnerability identifier: #VU138546
CSH Severity: Low
CVSS v4: 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]
CVE-ID: CVE-2026-64099
CWE-ID: CWE-416
Exploitation vector: Local access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

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

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in the v3d CPU job ioctl error path when handling CPU job submission failures. A local user can trigger an error path with crafted CPU job submissions to cause a denial of service.

The same error path can also trigger a NULL dereference and leak one sync object reference per query.
