Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe/tracing: Fix a potential TP_printk UAF The commit afd2627f727b ("tracing: Check "%s" dereference via the field and not the TP_printk format") exposes potential UAFs in the xe_bo_move trace event. Fix those by avoiding dereferencing the xe_mem_type_to_name[] array at TP_printk time. Since some code refactoring has taken place, explicit backporting may be needed for kernels older than 6.10.

Affected products

• Linux kernel: from 6.11 before 6.12.16; from 6.13 before 6.13.4 — fixed in 6.12.16, 6.13.4

How to fix

Upgrade to a fixed version: Linux kernel 6.12.16, 6.13.4. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
