CVSS Release:
CVE-2026-80903: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe/oa: Fix sync entry leak on OA config emit failure xe_oa_emit_oa_config() releases the sync entries and the syncs array only on its success path. When it fails before the point of no return (fence allocation, config buffer allocation or batch submission), it returns without touching stream->syncs. The stream open path handles such failures in the caller, but xe_oa_config_locked() propagates the error without any cleanup, so the syncs array and the fence references held by the parsed entries are leaked. The next config ioctl overwrites stream->syncs, making the memory unreachable for good. Clean up the parsed syncs when xe_oa_emit_oa_config() fails, matching the cleanup done by the stream open error path. (cherry picked from commit 8af97b3da2cfce04e6b457c6eb17ed3c1daf912b)
The exploitability of CVE-2026-80903 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-2026-80903.
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-2026-80903, 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-2026-80903, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.
