Race condition in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-74638

Vulnerability identifier: #VU144891

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-2026-74638

CWE-ID: CWE-362

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 a race condition in the v3d drm scheduler timeout handling for V3D hardware queues when handling concurrent scheduler timeouts across queues that share a global reset. A local user can trigger queue timeouts during gpu workload execution to cause a denial of service.

The issue can leave the CL queue credit count inconsistent, resulting in a complete GPU hang and UI freeze.
