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-2026-89801 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-2026-89801/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-89801/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-89801","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-89801/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-89801","record":{"aliases":["AZL-101661","BELL-CVE-2026-89801","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-89801","GHSA-8x7w-6563-2c2q","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-89801"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["code_execution","privilege_escalation"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A use-after-free in the Linux kernel nouveau driver allows attackers to execute arbitrary code or escalate privileges via a failed sparse unmap operation.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"use_after_free"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":7.8,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndrm/nouveau/uvmm: fix premature region free on failed OP_UNMAP_SPARSE\n\nIn nouveau_uvmm_bind_job_submit()'s OP_UNMAP_SPARSE arm, op-\u003ereg is set\nfrom nouveau_uvma_region_find(), which only looks the region up and takes\nno reference; a region's sole reference is its membership in\nuvmm-\u003eregion_mt.
