CVE-2026-98511
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/nouveau: don't bump pin count on failed re-pin in nouveau_bo_pin_locked() nouveau_bo_p
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/nouveau: don't bump pin count on failed re-pin in nouveau_bo_pin_locked()
nouveau_bo_pin_locked() checks whether an already pinned BO is in a
memory domain compatible with a new pin request. When the domains are
incompatible, it sets -EBUSY but still calls ttm_bo_pin() before
returning.
Callers treat a failed nouveau_bo_pin() as not having acquired a new pin,
so the extra pin count is never decreased by a matching unpin.
This triggers the warning in ttm_bo_release():
WARN_ON_ONCE(bo->pin_count);
Found when fuzzing the nouveau driver with a modified Syzkaller:
