Technical description

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

drm/xe/vm: Fix BO prefetch with CONSULT_MEM_ADVISE_PREF_LOC

When prefetch region is DRM_XE_CONSULT_MEM_ADVISE_PREF_LOC for a BO VMA,

the code used it as an index into region_to_mem_type[], causing an

out-of-bounds access since the value is -1.

Resolve the preferred location for BO VMAs directly: local VRAM on dGFX

(using the BO's tile placement) or system memory on iGPU.

Discovered using AI-assisted static analysis confirmed by Intel Product

Security.

v2:

-Fix null dereference

(cherry picked from commit d9a4906ac03be9f6ed3f3b45c56c866b867fd75b)

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.
