DescriptionCVE.org

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

drm/nouveau: fix u32 overflow in pushbuf reloc bounds check

nouveau_gem_pushbuf_reloc_apply() validates each relocation with

if (r->reloc_bo_offset + 4 > nvbo->bo.base.size)

but reloc_bo_offset is __u32 (uapi/drm/nouveau_drm.h) and the integer literal 4 promotes to unsigned int, so the addition is performed in 32 bits and wraps before the comparison against the size_t bo size.

Cast to u64 so the addition happens in 64-bit arithmetic.

AnalysisAI

Local privilege escalation potential in the Linux kernel's Nouveau DRM driver stems from a 32-bit integer overflow in the pushbuf relocation bounds check (nouveau_gem_pushbuf_reloc_apply). Authenticated local users with access to the Nouveau GPU device node can bypass the size validation and trigger out-of-bounds writes against the buffer object, leading to high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is very low (0.02%), but a vendor patch is available across multiple stable kernel branches.

Technical ContextAI

The flaw resides in drivers/gpu/drm/nouveau, the open-source DRM/KMS driver for NVIDIA GPUs, specifically in the pushbuf ioctl path used to submit GPU command buffers with relocations. The check 'r->reloc_bo_offset + 4 > nvbo->bo.base.size' performs the addition in 32-bit arithmetic because reloc_bo_offset is a __u32 (as defined in uapi/drm/nouveau_drm.h) and the literal 4 promotes to unsigned int; values near UINT32_MAX wrap to small numbers and pass the comparison against the size_t buffer object size. This is a classic integer-overflow-leading-to-improper-bounds-check pattern (CWE-190 chained to CWE-787 out-of-bounds write), exposed across the userspace API surface of the Nouveau driver. The fix casts the offset to u64 so the comparison happens in 64-bit arithmetic, preventing the wrap.

RemediationAI

Vendor-released patches are available - upgrade to Linux stable 6.6.140, 6.12.86, 6.18.27, 7.0.4, or 7.1-rc1 (or any later release on those branches) via your distribution's kernel update channel as soon as it ships the backport (see https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e441d5c23ec644c8d27593db3b8928e8933512a9 and the related stable commits listed in EUVD-2026-32303). If immediate patching is not possible, a targeted compensating control is to unload and blacklist the nouveau module ('modprobe -r nouveau' plus a blacklist entry in /etc/modprobe.d/) on systems that do not need accelerated NVIDIA graphics, which fully removes the attack surface but breaks GPU acceleration and Wayland/X sessions on those NVIDIA GPUs. Alternatively, restrict access to /dev/dri/render* and /dev/dri/card* (e.g., remove untrusted users from the 'video'/'render' groups, or tighten udev permissions) to limit who can submit pushbufs, at the cost of breaking GPU-using applications for those users; this is a partial mitigation since any user already able to open the device retains exploit access.
