What is CVE-2026-80728?

CVE-2026-80728 is a vulnerability in Linux, published on 3 Sep 2026. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.

Official description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

Revert "drm/amdgpu: fix aperture mapping leak"

devres teardown is LIFO. The aperture devres node was registered after the DRM device node, so devres_release_all() unmaps the aperture before the DRM device release callback fires amdgpu_device_fini_sw(). IP sw_fini callbacks (e.g. vcn_v4_0_sw_fini) write to fw_shared through a pointer derived from aper_base_kaddr, causing a kernel page fault on probe failure / rollback:

BUG: unable to handle page fault ... PMD 0 RIP: vcn_v4_0_sw_fini+0x7b/0x170 [amdgpu] Call Trace: amdgpu_device_fini_sw amdgpu_driver_release_kms devm_drm_dev_init_release devres_release_all

This reverts commit d871e99879cb5fd1fa798b006b4888887e63a17a.

(cherry picked from commit 336e0cd576817ac64a4b394ca2b3680029f3e37f)
