CVE-2026-89808: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amdkfd: Fix the case that vm range is hole at svm_migrate_copy_to_vram When migration vm range is hole at cpu side(MIGRATE_PFN_MIGRATE set + MIGRATE_PFN_VALID unset) driver still allocates device pages. There is no dma map of src pages and migration. j is 0 and svm_migrate_copy_memory_gart() will return an uninitialized r. That can trigger out_free_vram_pages to drop all VRAM just set up. Initialize r and only call the last svm_migrate_copy_memory_gart if j > 0. Current code postponed the last page to the final copy. This patch flushes on the last page when reach to the end of current drm_buddy_block; avoids another svm_migrate_copy_memory_gart.
The exploitability of CVE-2026-89808 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).
CVE-2026-89808 presents an accessible attack vector with minimal effort required. Restricting access controls and implementing security updates are critical to reducing exploitation risks.
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-2026-89808, 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-2026-89808, showing how Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability might be affected if the vulnerability is exploited. Higher values usually signal greater potential damage.
