Overview

CVE-2026-89819 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on September 16, 2026 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/amd/display: validate plane degamma LUT size for private color prop

Unlike the CRTC degamma path, which is guarded by

amdgpu_dm_verify_lut_sizes(), the per-plane degamma LUT size was never

validated before use. __set_dm_plane_degamma() passed the user-supplied

size straight into __is_lut_linear() and, for a non-linear LUT, into

__set_input_tf() -> __drm_lut_to_dc_gamma(), the latter always iterating

MAX_COLOR_LUT_ENTRIES entries regardless of the actual LUT size.

A malformed AMD_PLANE_DEGAMMA_LUT blob (e.g. a single entry) could thus

trigger a divide-by-zero in __is_lut_linear() or an out-of-bounds read in

__drm_lut_to_dc_gamma(). Reject any plane degamma LUT whose size does not

match MAX_COLOR_LUT_ENTRIES, mirroring the invariant the code already

asserts a few lines below (and which the CRTC path enforces).

The AMD_PLANE_DEGAMMA_LUT property is only exposed on builds with

AMD_PRIVATE_COLOR defined.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-89819?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-89819 is actually reachable in your own applications and APIs, then verifies each finding before reporting it. That tells you if the weakness is a real, exploitable risk in your environment or a false positive you can safely deprioritize.
