Technical details
A write use-after-free (UAF) vulnerability exists in the Imagination Technologies Graphics DDK due to improper management of shared memory resources between the CPU and GPU. Specifically, a CPU thread (driver) may free a memory page before the GPU thread (firmware) has finished its access operations. A local, non-privileged attacker can trigger this condition by making improper GPU system calls. This race condition or mismanagement of resource lifecycles can lead to memory corruption. The issue is addressed in DDK version 26.2 RTM.
Affected products
