CVE-2026-99119

Unspecified impact via skipped user-queue buffer validation

Published Oct 28, 2026 · Updated Oct 28, 2026

Buffer validation errors in Linux amdgpu user queues allow local users to cause unspecified impact through GPU buffer operations. amdgpu_userq_bo_validate walks always_valid.evicted instead of individual.evicted, skipping eviction-fence rearming for buffers evicted before queue creation and dropping the lock without a buffer reference. Access requires a supported AMD GPU and user-queue device access; the published fix does not identify a crash, data disclosure, or privilege-escalation outcome.
