Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's drm/xe component. A Use-After-Free (UAF) vulnerability occurs during queue destruction. A timing issue allows the system's workqueue, which handles tasks, to outlive the driver instance. This can lead to memory corruption, potentially allowing a local attacker to achieve privilege escalation or cause a denial of service.
