CVE-2026-98910

drm/amdkfd: Unwind debug trap enable on copy_to_user failure

Published Oct 23, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 3.3 Low EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdkfd: Unwind debug trap enable on copy_to_user failure

If kfd_dbg_trap_enable() fails while copying runtime_info to userspace,
it had already activated the trap, set debug_trap_enabled, taken an extra
process reference, and opened the debug event file. Return -EFAULT without
unwinding that state, leaving inconsistent trap state and a refcount
imbalance that could break later DISABLE/ENABLE.

On copy_to_user failure, deactivate the trap and undo the rest of the
enable setup before returning.
