CVE-2026-97424: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu/ras: add ras_suspend callback and use it for cp_ecc_error_irq cp_ecc_error

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu/ras: add ras_suspend callback and use it for cp_ecc_error_irq cp_ecc_error_irq

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu/ras: add ras_suspend callback and use it for cp_ecc_error_irq cp_ecc_error_irq is acquired in amdgpu_gfx_ras_late_init() but released in gfx_v9_0_hw_fini(), so the put site has to query amdgpu_irq_enabled() because the get is skipped on SR-IOV VF. ras_late_init / ras_fini have no suspend counterpart, so move the put to amdgpu_gfx_ras_suspend() / amdgpu_gfx_ras_fini() and add a matching ras_suspend callback that is invoked from amdgpu_ras_suspend() before disable_all_features(). The get and put now sit in the same place and check the same condition (not VF, funcs registered), no refcount querying needed. An active flag gates ras_fini so the suspend-then-unload-without-resume path falls into amdgpu_ras_block_late_fini_default() instead of double-releasing what ras_suspend already cleaned up. Drop the cp_ecc_error_irq put from gfx_v9_0_hw_fini(). gfx_v8_0 manages cp_ecc_error_irq locally and is unaffected; no other GFX generation has this IRQ.

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.
