Overview

CVE-2025-37763 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on May 1, 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/imagination: take paired job reference

For paired jobs, have the fragment job take a reference on the

geometry job, so that the geometry job cannot be freed until

the fragment job has finished with it.

The geometry job structure is accessed when the fragment job is being

prepared by the GPU scheduler. Taking the reference prevents the

geometry job being freed until the fragment job no longer requires it.

Fixes a use after free bug detected by KASAN:
