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-2026-72361 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-2026-72361/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72361/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-72361","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72361/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-72361","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2026-72361","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-72361","GHSA-w4pp-p8xg-464c","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-72361"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service","code_execution"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A double-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Xe driver error path allows local attackers to cause denial of service or potentially execute code.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndrm/xe/hw_engine: Fix double-free of managed BO in error path\n\nThe error path in hw_engine_init() explicitly frees a BO allocated\nwith xe_managed_bo_create_pin_map() via xe_bo_unpin_map_no_vm().\nSince the managed BO already has a devm cleanup action registered,\nthis causes a double-free when devm unwinds during probe failure.\n\nRemove the explicit free and let devm handle it, consistent with\nall other xe_managed_bo_create_pin_map() callers.\n\n(cherry picked from commit e459a3bdeb117be496d7f229e2ea1f6c9fe4080b)","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/hw_engine: Fix double-free of managed BO in error path","id":"CVE-2026-72361","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"use_after_free","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":4,"next":{"headline":"drm/xe/pt: Fix NULL pointer dereference in xe_pt_zap_ptes_entry()","id":"CVE-2026-72362"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"drm/xe/pf: Don't attempt to process FAST_REQ or EVENT relays","id":"CVE-2026-72360"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2026-08-15","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-08-17","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A double-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Xe driver error path allows local attackers to cause denial of service or potentially execute code.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-72361/"}
