Overview

CVE-2024-49570 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on February 27, 2025 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8, rated HIGH. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/xe/tracing: Fix a potential TP_printk UAF

The commit

afd2627f727b ("tracing: Check "%s" dereference via the field and not the TP_printk format")

exposes potential UAFs in the xe_bo_move trace event.

Fix those by avoiding dereferencing the

xe_mem_type_to_name[] array at TP_printk time.

Since some code refactoring has taken place, explicit backporting may

be needed for kernels older than 6.10.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
