Reachable assertion in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-68113

Vulnerability identifier: #VU142207

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-2026-68113

CWE-ID: CWE-617

Exploitation vector: Local access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of assertion checks in drm/amdgpu gfx12 ring command emission routines when processing misaligned gpu or memory addresses. A local user can trigger code paths with improperly aligned addresses to cause a denial of service.

The issue can crash the kernel via reachable BUG_ON() conditions in multiple gfx12 amdgpu paths.
