Exploitability
| CWE ID | Description |
|---|---|
| CWE-416 | The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer. |

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?
This vulnerability occurs when software running as a non-privileged user makes improper GPU system calls that can trigger use-after-free exceptions in the kernel. This means the kernel may access memory that has already been freed, potentially leading to unexpected behavior or security issues.
How can this vulnerability impact me? :
The vulnerability can lead to limited confidentiality and integrity impacts, as indicated by the CVSS score. An attacker exploiting this could cause improper kernel behavior, potentially leading to information disclosure or modification, but it does not allow privilege escalation or availability impact.
