Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/i915: Fix potential UAF in TTM object purge TLDR: The bo->ttm object might be changed by calling ttm_bo_validate(), move casting it to an i915_tt object later to actually get the right pointer. A user reported hitting the following bug under heavy use on DG2: [26620.095550] Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xa56b6b6b6b6b6b8b: 0000 1 SMP NOPTI [26620.095556] CPU: 2 UID: 0 PID: 631 Comm: Xorg Not tainted 6.18.8 #1 PREEMPT(lazy) [26620.095558] Hardware name: ASRock B850M Steel Legend WiFi/B850M Steel Legend WiFi, BIOS 3.50 09/18/2025 [26620.095559] RIP: 0010:i915_ttm_purge+0x84/0x100 [i915] [26620.095604] Code: 00 00 00 48 8d 54 24 10 48 89 e6 48 89 fb e8 83 aa ae ff 85 c0 75 6f 48 83 bb a8 01 00 00 00 74 2c 48 8b 45 78 48 85 c0 74 23 <48> 8b 78 20 48 c7 c2 ff ff ff ff 31 f6 e8 7a 73 e3 e0 48 8b 7d 78 [26620.095605] RSP: 0018:ffffc90005fd7430 EFLAGS: 00010282 [26620.095607] RAX: a56b6b6b6b6b6b6b RBX: ffff8881f46c3dc0 RCX: 0000000000000000 [26620.095608] RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 0000000000000246 RDI: 00000000ffffffff [26620.095609] RBP: ffff888289610f00 R08: 0000000000000001 R09: ffff88823b022000 [26620.095609] R10: ffff888103029b28 R11: ffff8881fc7f3800 R12: ffff88810b6150d0 [26620.095609] R13: ffff888289610f00 R14: 0000000000000000 R15: ffff8881f46c3dc0 [26620.095610] FS: 00007f1004d86900(0000) GS:ffff88901c858000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000 [26620.095611] CS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033 [26620.095611] CR2: 00007f0fdf489000 CR3: 000000035b0c1000 CR4: 0000000000750ef0 [26620.095612] PKRU: 55555554 [26620.095612] Call Trace: [26620.095615] <TASK> [26620.095615] i915_ttm_move+0x2b9/0x420 [i915] [26620.095642] ? ttm_tt_init+0x65/0x80 [ttm] [26620.095644] ? i915_ttm_tt_create+0xc6/0x150 [i915] [26620.095667] ttm_bo_handle_move_mem+0xb6/0x160 [ttm] [26620.095669] ttm_bo_evict+0x100/0x150 [ttm] [26620.095671] ? preempt_count_add+0x64/0xa0 [26620.095673] ? _raw_spin_lock+0xe/0x30 [26620.095675] ? _raw_spin_unlock+0xd/0x30 [26620.095675] ? i915_gem_object_evictable+0xb7/0xd0 [i915] [26620.095704] ttm_bo_evict_cb+0x6e/0xd0 [ttm] [26620.095705] ttm_lru_walk_for_evict+0xa6/0x200 [ttm] [26620.095708] ttm_bo_alloc_resource+0x185/0x4f0 [ttm] [26620.095709] ? init_object+0x62/0xd0 [26620.095712] ttm_bo_validate+0x7a/0x180 [ttm] [26620.095713] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x16/0x30 [26620.095714] __i915_ttm_get_pages+0xb0/0x170 [i915] [26620.095737] i915_ttm_get_pages+0x9f/0x150 [i915] [26620.095759] ? i915_gem_do_execbuffer+0xedc/0x2b40 [i915] [26620.095786] ? alloc_debug_processing+0xd0/0x100 [26620.095787] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x16/0x30 [26620.095788] ? i915_vma_instance+0xa0/0x4e0 [i915] [26620.095822] __i915_gem_object_get_pages+0x2f/0x40 [i915] [26620.095848] i915_vma_pin_ww+0x706/0x980 [i915] [26620.095875] ? i915_gem_do_execbuffer+0xedc/0x2b40 [i915] [26620.095904] eb_validate_vmas+0x170/0xa00 [i915] [26620.095930] i915_gem_do_execbuffer+0x1201/0x2b40 [i915] [26620.095953] ? alloc_debug_processing+0xd0/0x100 [26620.095954] ? _raw_spin_unlock_irqrestore+0x16/0x30 [26620.095955] ? i915_gem_execbuffer2_ioctl+0xc9/0x240 [i915] [26620.095977] ? __wake_up_sync_key+0x32/0x50 [26620.095979] ? i915_gem_execbuffer2_ioctl+0xc9/0x240 [i915] [26620.096001] ? __slab_alloc.isra.0+0x67/0xc0 [26620.096003] i915_gem_execbuffer2_ioctl+0x11a/0x240 [i915] Results from decode_stacktrace.sh pointed to dereference of a file pointer field of a i915 TTM page vector container associated with an object being purged on eviction. That path is taken when the object is marked as no longer needed. Code analysis revealed a possibility of the i915 TTM page vector container being replaced with a new instance inside a function that purges content of the object, should it be still busy. That function is called, indirectly via a more general function that changes the object's placement and caching policy, ---truncated---
