CVSS Release:
CVE-2026-80887: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/vmwgfx: use check_add_overflow for shader size+offset bound vmw_shader_define() validates the user-supplied shader window against its backing buffer with (u64)buffer->tbo.base.size < (u64)size + (u64)offset drm_vmw_shader_create_arg::offset is __u64 in the uapi; when it is near U64_MAX the unsigned addition wraps and the resulting tiny value passes the check. The unbounded offset is then stored in res->guest_memory_offset and forwarded to host SVGA shader-create commands. Use check_add_overflow() to detect the wrap and compare the resulting endpoint against the buffer size.
The exploitability of CVE-2026-80887 depends on two key factors: attack complexity (the level of effort required to execute an exploit) and privileges required (the access level an attacker needs).
No exploitability data is available for CVE-2026-80887.
A lower complexity and fewer privilege requirements make exploitation easier. Security teams should evaluate these aspects to determine the urgency of mitigation strategies, such as patch management and access control policies.
Attack Complexity (AC) measures the difficulty in executing an exploit. A high AC means that specific conditions must be met, making an attack more challenging, while a low AC means the vulnerability can be exploited with minimal effort.
Privileges Required (PR) determine the level of system access necessary for an attack. Vulnerabilities requiring no privileges are more accessible to attackers, whereas high privilege requirements limit exploitation to authorized users with elevated access.
Above is the CVSS Sub-score Breakdown for CVE-2026-80887, illustrating how Base, Impact, and Exploitability factors combine to form the overall severity rating. A higher sub-score typically indicates a more severe or easier-to-exploit vulnerability.
Below is the Impact Analysis for CVE-2026-80887, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.
