In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe: Wait on external BO kernel fences in exec IOCTL
Before arming a user job, xe_exec_ioctl() only added the VM's
dma-resv KERNEL slot as a dependency. That slot covers rebinds and
the kernel operations of the VM's private BOs, but not external BOs
(bo->vm == NULL), which carry their kernel operations (evictions,
moves, ...) in their own dma-resv KERNEL slot.
The DMA_RESV_USAGE_KERNEL slot is the cross-driver contract for
memory management operations that must complete before the BO or its
backing store may be used: any accessor is required to wait on the
KERNEL fences before touching the resv. By skipping the external BOs'
KERNEL slots, the exec path violated that contract and could schedule
a user job while a kernel operation on an external BO mapped by the VM
was still in flight, racing against it and potentially reading or
writing memory that was being moved.
Replace the VM-only dependency with an iteration over every object
locked by the exec, adding each object's KERNEL slot as a job
dependency. This covers the VM resv (rebinds and private BOs) as well
as every external BO, mirroring the drm_gpuvm_resv_add_fence() call
that later publishes the job fence to the same set of objects.
Long-running mode continues to skip this, as before.
(cherry picked from commit a6b842acf3ddd1efc53a56de9260cfa718fb35e7)
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's drm/xe driver. The xe_exec_ioctl() function did not properly wait on kernel fences for external Buffer Objects (BOs). This oversight allows a local attacker to initiate a user job that races with ongoing kernel memory management operations on external BOs. A successful exploit could lead to memory corruption, potentially resulting in information disclosure or system instability.
