A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

A fix has been implemented in the Linux kernel drm/v3d driver to associate buffer objects with every job that accesses them, ensuring proper synchronization. Users should apply the official kernel updates that include this fix. Since this is a kernel-level issue, updating to the patched kernel versions is the recommended remediation.

Description

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's drm/v3d driver was resolved that involved improper association of buffer objects (BOs) with jobs accessing them. The flaw caused implicit synchronization to fail for certain jobs, potentially leading to data corruption when a job read a BO while another context was still writing it. The fix ensures BOs are correctly attached to consuming jobs, maintaining proper synchronization and preventing concurrent access issues.

Impact

The vulnerability could lead to data corruption due to improper synchronization of buffer objects between jobs in the drm/v3d driver. This affects the integrity of data processed by the GPU, potentially causing incorrect rendering or system instability. There is no indication of remote code execution or privilege escalation. No known exploits in the wild have been reported.

Summary

The Linux kernel drm/v3d driver had a vulnerability where buffer objects (BOs) were only associated with the last job in a chain of jobs, typically a CACHE_CLEAN job. This caused the actual consuming job (e.g., RENDER or CSD job) to have an empty BO list and miss implicit synchronization dependencies. Consequently, the consuming job could be dispatched to hardware and read BOs still being written by another context, causing data corruption. The fix attaches BOs to the consuming job to ensure correct implicit dependencies and mapping duration. It also introduces a per-job flag to manage implicit dependencies properly and avoids redundant lookups by referencing BOs directly.
