In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/nouveau/uvmm: fix UAF in nouveau_uvmm_sm when BO is in TTM_PL_SYSTEM
nouveau_uvmm_sm() calls op_map(), which passes bo->resource through
nouveau_mem() to nouveau_uvma_map(). nouveau_uvmm_vmm_map() then reads
mem->mem.type.
But this is only valid when bo->resource is backed by struct nouveau_mem,
as is the case for VRAM and TT resources. If the BO is left in
TTM_PL_SYSTEM, bo->resource is only a struct ttm_resource. Treating it
as struct nouveau_mem makes the mem->mem.type read past the end of the
resource, causing a KASAN: slab-use-after-free Read in nouveau_uvmm_sm
report:
