It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2024-40976 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40976/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40976/index.md)","id":"CVE-2024-40976","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40976/index.md","name":"CVE-2024-40976","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2024-40976","DEBIAN-CVE-2024-40976","GHSA-8xmj-h9j2-77ww","UBUNTU-CVE-2024-40976"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel GPU driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel's Lima GPU driver can cause a refcount imbalance and system warning, potentially leading to denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-362","name":"Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndrm/lima: mask irqs in timeout path before hard reset\n\nThere is a race condition in which a rendering job might take just long\nenough to trigger the drm sched job timeout handler but also still\ncomplete before the hard reset is done by the timeout handler.\nThis runs into race conditions not expected by the timeout handler.\nIn some very specific cases it currently may result in a refcount\nimbalance on lima_pm_idle, with a stack dump such as:\n\n[10136.669170] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 0 at drivers/gpu/drm/lima/lima_devfreq.c:205 lima_devfreq_record_idle+0xa0/0xb0\n...\n[10136.669459] pc : lima_devfreq_record_idle+0xa0/0xb0\n...\n[10136.669628] Call trace:\n[10136.669634]  lima_devfreq_record_idle+0xa0/0xb0\n[10136.669646]  lima_sched_pipe_task_done+0x5c/0xb0\n[10136.669656]  lima_gp_irq_handler+0xa8/0x120\n[10136.669666]  __handle_irq_event_percpu+0x48/0x160\n[10136.669679]  handle_irq_event+0x4c/0xc0\n\nWe can prevent that race condition entirely by masking the irqs at the\nbeginning of the timeout handler, at which point we give up on waiting\nfor that job entirely.\nThe irqs will be enabled again at the next hard reset which is already\ndone as a recovery by the timeout handler.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"drm/lima: mask irqs in timeout path before hard reset","id":"CVE-2024-40976","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"race_condition","year":"2024"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"wifi: mt76: mt7921s: fix potential hung tasks during chip recovery","id":"CVE-2024-40977"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"platform/x86: x86-android-tablets: Unregister devices in reverse order","id":"CVE-2024-40975"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2024-07-12","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Out-of-Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2026-53266","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2026-06-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2013-6282","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-11-19"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Heap-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2022-0185","kev_date_added":"2024-08-21","published":"2022-02-11"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2013-2094","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-05-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Unspecified","id":"CVE-2026-53362","kev_date_added":"2026-08-27","published":"2026-07-04"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Missing Initialization of a Variable","id":"CVE-2026-46300","kev_date_added":"2026-10-28","published":"2026-05-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Race Condition","id":"CVE-2025-39964","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2025-10-13"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A race condition in the Linux kernel's Lima GPU driver can cause a refcount imbalance and system warning, potentially leading to denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2024-40976/"}
