Race condition in Linux kernel - CVE-2026-93047
Published: September 18, 2026
Vulnerability details
The vulnerability allows a local user to cause data corruption.
The vulnerability exists due to improper synchronization in the V3D DRM driver job submission handling when submitting a job chain with a trailing cache-clean job. A local user can submit a job chain that accesses buffer objects without acquiring implicit dependencies to cause data corruption.
Exploitation requires another context to be writing the accessed buffer objects concurrently.
