CVE-2026-45204: CWE - CWE-476: NULL Pointer Dereference (4.15) in Imagination Technologies Graphics DDK
CVE-2026-45204 is a vulnerability in Imagination Technologies Graphics DDK where a null pointer dereference occurs in a kernel thread error path. This can be triggered by improper GPU system calls made by software running as a non-privileged user. The flaw leads to kernel exceptions, platform instability, and denial of service conditions.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
The vulnerability involves a null pointer dereference in an error path of a kernel thread within the Imagination Technologies Graphics DDK. Non-privileged user software can invoke improper GPU system calls that trigger out-of-bounds access and cause the kernel to dereference a null pointer. This results in kernel exceptions and can destabilize the platform, causing denial of service. No CVSS score or patch information is currently available, and no known exploits are reported in the wild.
Potential Impact
Exploitation of this vulnerability can cause kernel exceptions and platform instability, resulting in denial of service. There is no indication of privilege escalation or code execution. The impact is limited to system availability disruption.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. No official fix or workaround information is available at this time.
