AI-suggested

A patch is available and should be applied to update the Linux kernel to version 6.8.0-1046.49~22.04.1 or later. Users should follow the vendor advisories linked for official updates. No additional mitigation is required beyond applying the official fix.

Description

A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's drm/imagination driver was fixed by ensuring that the fragment job holds a reference to the paired geometry job, preventing premature freeing. This flaw was detected by KASAN and could lead to memory corruption during GPU job scheduling.
