Description
A web page that contains unusual GPU shader code is loaded from the Internet into the GPU compiler process triggers a write use-after-free crash in the GPU shader compiler library. On certain platforms, when the compiler process has system privileges this could enable further exploits on the device. The shader code contained in the web page executes a path in the compiler that held onto an out of date pointer, pointing to a freed memory object.

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 Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.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 a web page containing unusual GPU shader code is loaded into the GPU compiler process. The shader code triggers a write use-after-free crash in the GPU shader compiler library because the compiler holds onto an outdated pointer referencing freed memory. This can cause the GPU compiler process to crash and potentially be exploited further.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

If exploited, this vulnerability could cause the GPU shader compiler process to crash. On certain platforms where the compiler process runs with system privileges, it could enable attackers to execute further exploits on the device, potentially compromising system security.
