The close drops the last reference, __fput() frees the dma_buf,\nand the tracepoint then dereferences dmabuf to take dmabuf->name_lock\n-- slab-use-after-free.\n\nSplit FD_ADD() back into get_unused_fd_flags() + fd_install() and\nemit the tracepoint between them. While the fdtable slot is reserved\nwith a NULL file pointer, a racing close() returns -EBADF without\nentering __fput(), so the dma_buf stays alive across the trace. Same\napproach as commit 2d76319c4cbb (\"dma-buf: fix UAF in dma_buf_put()\ntracepoint\").\n\nThis undoes the FD_ADD() conversion done in commit 34dfce523c90\n(\"dma: convert dma_buf_fd() to FD_ADD()\"); FD_ADD() has no place to\nhook the tracepoint safely.","published":"2026-07-19T16:17:09.000Z","lastModified":"2026-07-27T17:44:24.000Z","status":"Awaiting Analysis","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":7.8,"severity":"HIGH","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":[],"affected":[],"epss":{"score":0.00165,"percentile":0.05676,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"high","text":"High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.17%).
