CVSS Meta Temp Score CVSS is a standardized scoring system to determine possibilities of attacks. The Temp Score considers temporal factors like disclosure, exploit and countermeasures. The unique Meta Score calculates the average score of different sources to provide a normalized scoring system.	Current Exploit Price (≈) Our analysts are monitoring exploit markets and are in contact with vulnerability brokers. The range indicates the observed or calculated exploit price to be seen on exploit markets. A good indicator to understand the monetary effort required for and the popularity of an attack.	CTI Interest Score Our Cyber Threat Intelligence team is monitoring different web sites, mailing lists, exploit markets and social media networks. The CTI Interest Score identifies the interest of attackers and the security community for this specific vulnerability in real-time. A high score indicates an elevated risk to be targeted for this vulnerability.

Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in Linux Kernel up to 6.6.151/6.12.103/6.18.44/7.1.8. Affected by this issue is the function vcn_v4_0_sw_fini of the file drm/amdgpu of the component amdgpu. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a memory corruption vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-119. The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it can read from or write to a memory location that is outside of the intended boundary of the buffer. Impacted is availability. CVE summarizes:

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Revert "drm/amdgpu: fix aperture mapping leak" devres teardown is LIFO. The aperture devres node was registered after the DRM device node, so devres_release_all() unmaps the aperture before the DRM device release callback fires amdgpu_device_fini_sw(). IP sw_fini callbacks (e.g. vcn_v4_0_sw_fini) write to fw_shared through a pointer derived from aper_base_kaddr, causing a kernel page fault on probe failure / rollback: BUG: unable to handle page fault ... PMD 0 RIP: vcn_v4_0_sw_fini+0x7b/0x170 [amdgpu] Call Trace: amdgpu_device_fini_sw amdgpu_driver_release_kms devm_drm_dev_init_release devres_release_all This reverts commit d871e99879cb5fd1fa798b006b4888887e63a17a. (cherry picked from commit 336e0cd576817ac64a4b394ca2b3680029f3e37f)

The advisory is shared for download at git.kernel.org. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2026-80728 since 08/26/2026. The exploitation is known to be easy. The attack may be launched remotely.
