For non-fault-mode VMs this leaves\nvm->svm.gpusvm partially initialized and leaks the resources allocated\nby drm_gpusvm_init().\n\nFor fault-mode VMs, xe_svm_init() additionally acquires the pagemap\nowner via drm_pagemap_acquire_owner() and the pagemaps via\nxe_svm_get_pagemaps(). Those resources are released by xe_svm_close(),\nnot xe_svm_fini(). On the same error path, xe_svm_close() is not\ncalled either, so fault-mode VMs leak the pagemap owner and pagemaps.\n\nFix both leaks:\n\n- Call xe_svm_fini() unconditionally on the err_svm_fini path, matching\n  the unconditional xe_svm_init() call. Move the vm->size = 0\n  assignment out of the conditional so the xe_vm_is_closed() assert in\n  xe_svm_fini() (and xe_svm_close()) holds for both modes.\n\n- Call xe_svm_close() for fault-mode VMs before xe_svm_fini(), matching\n  the ordering used in xe_vm_close_and_put().\n\n(cherry picked from commit ca2a3587d577ba764e0fe628fb676244fc33ddd4)","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":7.8},"cwes":["CWE-401"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/279339aa8bdcf9db40094cf2bcbd495c53dbe817","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9ac92736030f3395d970c300eaeb59ac258a0c3e","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/d2c6800ad1802bed72a6de1416536737f114f1d6"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-21T03:56:58.798400159+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-68298","score":0.00128,"percentile":0.02403,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
