Lifecycle Timeline
1DescriptionNVD
Two memory leaks in the v3d_submit_cl_ioctl() function in drivers/gpu/drm/v3d/v3d_gem.c in the Linux kernel before 5.3.11 allow attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering kcalloc() or v3d_job_init() failures, aka CID-29cd13cfd762.
AnalysisAI
Two memory leaks in the v3d_submit_cl_ioctl() function in drivers/gpu/drm/v3d/v3d_gem.c in the Linux kernel before 5.3.11 allow attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by. Rated high severity (CVSS 7.5), this vulnerability is remotely exploitable, no authentication required, low attack complexity.
Technical ContextAI
This vulnerability is classified as Memory Leak (CWE-401), which allows attackers to exhaust available memory leading to denial of service. Two memory leaks in the v3d_submit_cl_ioctl() function in drivers/gpu/drm/v3d/v3d_gem.c in the Linux kernel before 5.3.11 allow attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering kcalloc() or v3d_job_init() failures, aka CID-29cd13cfd762. Affected products include: Linux Linux Kernel, Netapp Active Iq Unified Manager, Netapp Aff Baseboard Management Controller, Netapp Cloud Backup, Netapp Data Availability Services. Version information: before 5.3.11.
RemediationAI
A vendor patch is available. Apply the latest security update as soon as possible. Ensure all allocated memory is properly freed. Use RAII patterns or garbage-collected languages.
