CVE-2026-68237: drm/amdgpu/userq: fix indefinite fence wait during GPU reset

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 0/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.15% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Fixed version: Linux Linux 3085ae8695e025b39d208f288c6265edc75abbe8, 5d75ec2e5f1736c2f10c7d6f4565bf1bf29f29a7.
  • Mentioned 1 time in Turkish national cyber security advisories (siberguvenlik.gov.tr).

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 3085ae8695e025b39d208f288c6265edc75abbe8, 5d75ec2e5f1736c2f10c7d6f4565bf1bf29f29a7 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdgpu/userq: fix indefinite fence wait during GPU reset pre_reset only force-completes fences of MAPPED queues. A queue in any other state (e.g. mid-eviction) keeps its last_fence pending; after a GPU reset that fence never signals, so the eviction/suspend worker and process teardown (amdgpu_evf_mgr_flush_suspend) wait on it forever and wedge the machine: INFO: task kworker/6:28 blocked for more than 120 seconds. Workqueue: events amdgpu_eviction_fence_suspend_worker [amdgpu] Call Trace: dma_fence_wait_timeout+0x7e/0x130 amdgpu_userq_evict+0x67/0x140 [amdgpu] amdgpu_eviction_fence_suspend_worker+0xd8/0x160 [amdgpu] process_scheduled_works+0xa6/0x420 Force-complete every queue's fence regardless of state. The unmap and mark-hung step stays gated on MAPPED, since unmapping a queue that is not mapped is invalid. (cherry picked from commit 9102b39fa924dcc3dc75a3137bfa9633c40b88c0)

No known public exploit

No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.

Research context

For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.

Timeline

From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.

No dated events beyond publication.

No credits in the CNA record.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.
