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-2026-68265 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux. 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-2026-68265/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-68265/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-68265","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-68265/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-68265","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-68265","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-68265","GHSA-298g-42h7-52m6","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-68265"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A null dereference in the Linux kernel's DRM Xe driver allows local attackers to cause a denial of service via improper memory advice handling.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.3,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:L/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-125","name":"Out-of-bounds Read"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndrm/xe/vm: Fix BO prefetch with CONSULT_MEM_ADVISE_PREF_LOC\n\nWhen prefetch region is DRM_XE_CONSULT_MEM_ADVISE_PREF_LOC for a BO VMA,\nthe code used it as an index into region_to_mem_type[], causing an\nout-of-bounds access since the value is -1.\n\nResolve the preferred location for BO VMAs directly: local VRAM on dGFX\n(using the BO's tile placement) or system memory on iGPU.\n\nDiscovered using AI-assisted static analysis confirmed by Intel Product\nSecurity.\n\nv2:\n-Fix null dereference\n\n(cherry picked from commit d9a4906ac03be9f6ed3f3b45c56c866b867fd75b)","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/xe/vm: Fix BO prefetch with CONSULT_MEM_ADVISE_PREF_LOC","id":"CVE-2026-68265","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"drm/xe: Hold a dma-buf reference for imported BOs","id":"CVE-2026-68266"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"drm/xe/pt: Reset current_op in xe_pt_update_ops_init()","id":"CVE-2026-68264"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-08-10","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"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":"2026-10-19","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A null dereference in the Linux kernel's DRM Xe driver allows local attackers to cause a denial of service via improper memory advice handling.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-68265/"}
