Published Dec 8, 2025

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdkfd: Fix memory leak in kfdmemdmamapuserptr()

If the number of pages from the userptr BO differs from the SG BO then the allocated memory for the SG table doesn't get freed before returning -EINVAL, which may lead to a memory leak in some error paths. Fix this by checking the number of pages before allocating memory for the SG table.
