CVE-2026-68262

Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. The drm/imagination component's pvr_set_uobj_array() function mishandles the user array stride during copies of kernel objects to a userspace array. This error causes incorrect memory access, leading to memory corruption where data is written to unintended locations, or information disclosure where sensitive kernel data is read from incorrect addresses. A local attacker could potentially leverage this to gain elevated privileges or cause a system crash (Denial of Service).

Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details

Info alert:Important note

CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).

The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)

Integrity

Technical Impact: Modify Memory; Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands

Write operations could cause memory corruption. In some cases, an adversary can modify control data such as return addresses in order to execute unexpected code.

Availability

Technical Impact: DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart

Attempting to access out-of-range, invalid, or unauthorized memory could cause the product to crash.

Other

Technical Impact: Unexpected State

Subsequent write operations can produce undefined or unexpected results.
