Detailsinfo

A vulnerability was found in Linux Kernel up to 6.11.1 and classified as critical. This issue affects an unknown function of the component DRM. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a deadlock vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-833. The product contains multiple threads or executable segments that are waiting for each other to release a necessary lock, resulting in deadlock. Impacted is availability. The summary by CVE is:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe: Use reserved copy engine for user binds on faulting devices User binds map to engines with can fault, faults depend on user binds completion, thus we can deadlock. Avoid this by using reserved copy engine for user binds on faulting devices. While we are here, normalize bind queue creation with a helper. v2: - Pass in extensions to bind queue creation (CI) v3: - s/resevered/reserved (Lucas) - Fix NULL hwe check (Jonathan)

The advisory is shared at git.kernel.org. The identification of this vulnerability is CVE-2024-47729 since 09/30/2024. Neither technical details nor an exploit are publicly available.

Upgrading to version 6.11.2 eliminates this vulnerability. Applying the patch 439fc1e569c5/852856e3b6f6 is able to eliminate this problem. The bugfix is ready for download at git.kernel.org. The best possible mitigation is suggested to be upgrading to the latest version.
