CVE-2026-34194: CWE-468: Incorrect Pointer Scaling in Imagination Technologies Graphics DDK
Software installed and run as a non-privileged user may conduct improper GPU system calls to cause mismanagement of a mapping state maintained for a sparse memory allocation. The product accidentally refers to the wrong memory due to the semantics of how math operations are implicitly scaled across buffers of different sizes.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
This vulnerability arises from incorrect pointer scaling in the Imagination Technologies Graphics DDK. Non-privileged software can make GPU system calls that lead to mismanagement of a mapping state for sparse memory allocations. The root cause is the product's accidental reference to wrong memory locations due to how math operations implicitly scale across buffers of differing sizes, classified under CWE-468 (Incorrect Pointer Scaling). Affected versions include 24.2 RTM, 25.1 RTM, and 26.1 RTM. There is no vendor advisory or patch information available at this time.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability may cause the product to reference incorrect memory regions during GPU operations, potentially leading to memory corruption or instability. However, the exact impact on confidentiality, integrity, or availability is not detailed in the available data. There are no known exploits in the wild, and the vulnerability requires software running as a non-privileged user to trigger improper GPU system calls.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is released, users should monitor vendor communications for updates. No specific mitigations or workarounds are provided in the available information.
