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-2026-89816 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-2026-89816/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-89816/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-89816","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-89816/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-89816","record":{"aliases":["AZL-101247","BELL-CVE-2026-89816","DEBIAN-CVE-2026-89816","GHSA-6f96-mhg4-cfw6","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-89816"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel DRM","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A memory leak in the Linux kernel DRM subsystem allows local attackers to cause denial of service by triggering specific page flip events.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"memory_corruption"},"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: Fix drm_crtc_commit leak if signaled when PAGE_FLIP_EVENT is used\n\nCommit 1c6ceeee6ebb (\"drm/atomic: Fix memleak on ERESTARTSYS during\nnon-blocking commits\") fixed a very similar issue when the event was\nallocated by drm_atomic_helper_setup_commit() itself.\n\nHowever, if the event is allocated in prepare_signaling(), it will also be\nset to NULL in complete_signaling(), which prevents drm_crtc_commit from\nbeing put in __drm_atomic_helper_crtc_destroy_state().\n\nDropping the reference when the event is set to NULL at\ncomplete_signaling() fixes the leak.\n\nThe leak can be reproduced by sending a signal to the thread using\nDRM_MODE_PAGE_FLIP_EVENT and using a sw_sync fence to cause the atomic\nioctl to block at drm_atomic_helper_wait_for_fences().
