Vulnerability Assessment

Exploitation Conditions

Requires all of the following simultaneously: (1) Apple Silicon ARM64 hardware (M-series MacBook confirmed in the stack trace - Apple MacBook Pro 13-inch M2 2022); (2) Asahi Linux or equivalent distribution loading the out-of-tree apple_isp module (camera capture driver), appledrm, and videobuf2_dma_sg; (3) a user-space video capture application that establishes a DMA-buf import path between the V4L2/ISP subsystem and the DRM/GEM subsystem and calls mmap() on the imported buffer (documented trigger: gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src ! gtk4paintablesink). Exploitation is limited to local low-privileged users (PR:L). Not triggerable on x86/x64 Linux, not remotely exploitable, and does not affect systems without the Apple ISP camera driver. The WARN_ON is non-fatal; exploitation produces a kernel warning log entry and pipeline instability rather than a system crash or code execution.
Impact

The vendor CVSS 3.1 score of 5.5 (AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) is well-calibrated. The local attack vector (AV:L) and low-privilege requirement (PR:L) eliminate any network-based threat. EPSS of 0.02% at the 5th percentile is consistent with an extremely narrow trigger surface: the bug only manifests on Apple Silicon (M-series) hardware running the out-of-tree apple_isp and appledrm modules under Asahi Linux, with a DMA-buf-importing video pipeline such as GStreamer v4l2src feeding a DRM-backed sink. This is not a vulnerability that affects mainstream x86/x64 Linux deployments at all. No CISA KEV listing and no public exploit code exist. The secondary risk - missing VM_DONTDUMP allowing camera frame data into core dumps - is a real but low-severity information disclosure concern not reflected in the vendor CVSS C:N score; security teams protecting privacy-sensitive camera data on Apple Silicon Linux systems should weigh this separately. Overall, this is a genuine but narrow-impact kernel quality fix, not a prioritization candidate for most enterprise environments.
Exploit ScenarioDerived

A local user on an Apple M2 MacBook running Asahi Linux launches a GStreamer camera capture pipeline (gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src ! gtk4paintablesink), causing the Apple ISP driver to allocate DMA scatter-gather buffers via vb2_dma_sg. When GStreamer's DRM-backed sink performs mmap() on the imported DMA-buf, drm_gem_mmap_obj() triggers WARN_ON due to the missing VM_DONTEXPAND flag, generating a kernel warning trace that taints the kernel and may destabilize the capture pipeline. No public exploit code has been identified; the scenario is directly documented in the kernel commit description.

AnalysisAIv1 – Jul 08, 2026

Kernel warning (WARN_ON) triggerable in the Linux videobuf2 DMA scatter-gather subsystem on Apple Silicon systems allows a low-privileged local user to destabilize video capture pipelines by performing mmap() on an imported DMA-buf. The vb2_dma_sg_mmap function fails to set VM_DONTEXPAND and VM_DONTDUMP VMA flags - protections that vb2_dma_contig correctly applies - causing drm_gem_mmap_obj() to hit its assertion guard. No public exploit has been identified at time of analysis; EPSS is 0.02% (5th percentile), consistent with the narrow hardware-specific trigger surface.

RemediationAI

Update the Linux kernel to a patched release: 6.6.140 (longterm branch), 6.12.90, 6.18.32, or 7.0.9 depending on the deployed stable series; 7.1-rc1 includes the fix for development environments. Upstream stable fix commits are at https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/feb17524aa4ec337749344be0db52b88663e25ab, https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1a1360264f699521e001e7739009ee3ee3c6a4f5, https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/21fade52ab9fb13368a5709e60b0d9909197aeae, https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b4cf91658a636618f1437beec971dec25dec28eb, and https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7254b31a13aaa0c2c0f9ffbc335b718656117ff4. If patching is not immediately feasible on Asahi Linux systems, blacklisting the apple_isp module (echo 'blacklist apple_isp' >> /etc/modprobe.d/apple_isp.conf) eliminates the trigger entirely but disables the built-in camera. Alternatively, avoiding DMA-buf-importing V4L2 pipelines (e.g., gst-launch-1.0 v4l2src ! gtk4paintablesink) prevents the WARN_ON from firing without disabling the camera subsystem. Note that the WARN_ON is non-fatal by default - the kernel continues operating but logs a taint warning; the primary urgency is camera pipeline reliability and the secondary VM_DONTDUMP information disclosure risk.

Technical ContextAI · show details

The vulnerability resides in the Linux kernel videobuf2 (vb2) framework's DMA scatter-gather backend (drivers/media/common/videobuf2/videobuf2-dma-sg.c). When a V4L2 DMA-buf exported via vb2_dma_sg_mmap is imported into the DRM/GEM subsystem, drm_gem_mmap_obj() asserts WARN_ON(!(vma->vm_flags & VM_DONTEXPAND)) at drivers/gpu/drm/drm_gem.c:1144. This assertion exists because VM_DONTEXPAND prevents mremap() from illegally expanding a hardware-backed DMA mapping, and VM_DONTDUMP prevents DMA buffer contents (here, raw camera frame data from the Apple ISP) from being captured in process core dumps - the latter supporting the 'Information Disclosure' tag in the intelligence data. The parallel vb2_dma_contig implementation correctly sets both flags; vb2_dma_sg omits them. Affected CPE: cpe:2.3:a:linux:linux:* from kernel 2.6.39 onward. No CWE is assigned; the root cause class is an implementation inconsistency (missing protective flag propagation) rather than a memory safety flaw.

DescriptionNVD

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

media: videobuf2: Set vma_flags in vb2_dma_sg_mmap

vb2_dma_contig sets VMA flags VM_DONTEXPAND and VM_DONTDUMP and I do not see a reason why vb2_dma_sg should behave differently. This avoids hitting WARN_ON(!(vma->vm_flags & VM_DONTEXPAND)); in drm_gem_mmap_obj() during mmap() of an imported dma-buf from the out of tree Apple ISP camera capture driver which uses vb2_dma_sg_memops.
