CVE-2026-68275: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: check amdgpu_vm_bo_find() result in GET_MAPPING_INFO The AMDGPU_GEM_OP_GET

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: check amdgpu_vm_bo_find() result in GET_MAPPING_INFO The AMDGPU_GEM_OP_GET_MAP

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu: check amdgpu_vm_bo_find() result in GET_MAPPING_INFO The AMDGPU_GEM_OP_GET_MAPPING_INFO path of amdgpu_gem_op_ioctl() looks up the bo_va for the buffer object in the caller's VM via amdgpu_vm_bo_find(), but uses the returned pointer without checking it. amdgpu_vm_bo_find() returns NULL when the BO has no bo_va in that VM, which is the normal case for a BO that has never been mapped. The result is fed straight into amdgpu_vm_bo_va_for_each_valid_mapping(), which expands to list_for_each_entry(mapping, &(bo_va)->valids, list) and dereferences bo_va, causing a NULL pointer dereference. This is reachable by any process able to issue the ioctl (render group) simply by requesting mapping info for an unmapped BO. Return -ENOENT when no bo_va is found, jumping to out_exec so the drm_exec context and GEM object reference are released. (cherry picked from commit 528b19377affc1cc7362a70a254c1dda793595f9)

What it means for a small business

Linux is on the computers, phones or browsers your team uses every day. Turn on automatic updates and restart: most of these fixes only take effect after a restart.

How likely is an attack? The Exploit Prediction Scoring System, run by FIRST (the global association of security response teams), puts the odds of this one being exploited in the next 30 days at 0.17%, higher than 6% of CVEs. That’s low, but low isn’t zero, and the odds jump the day someone publishes an exploit. Scored October 29, 2026, updated daily.

Check your own setup

Website check: reads what your site runs from the outside (WordPress version, plugins it can see, old server software) and matches it against this database.
Server check: what your web server says about itself, and whether that version has known flaws.
