Overview
CVE-2026-64021 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 19, 2026.
Technical description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/oa: Fix exec_queue leak on width check in stream open
In xe_oa_stream_open_ioctl(), when param.exec_q->width > 1 the
function returns -EOPNOTSUPP directly, skipping the existing
err_exec_q cleanup path. The exec_queue reference obtained by
xe_exec_queue_lookup() is leaked.
The exec queue holds a reference on the xe_file, which is only
dropped during queue teardown. The leaked lookup ref is not on
the file's exec_queue xarray, so file close cannot release it.
This keeps both the exec queue and the file private state pinned
indefinitely.
Jump to err_exec_q instead of returning directly so the reference
is released.
(cherry picked from commit 339fa0be9e4a5d69fa47e91f4a36574224fb478f)
