Kernel-information disclosure via improper GPU memory processing
Published Sep 8, 2026 · Updated Sep 8, 2026
Information exposure in affected Arm Mali GPU kernel drivers through r55p0 allows local users to read sensitive kernel information via GPU operations. Arm identifies improper GPU memory processing but does not disclose the responsible function, memory object, or erroneous operation. Exploitation requires a local non-privileged process with access to the GPU driver and exposes kernel information without reported modification or service interruption.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=r29p0 <=r49p5
- Affected versionversion=r50p0 <=r54p3
- Affected versionversion=r55p0
